• Satellite P300-23F-mini-PCI Wireless card Replace?

  Question: would it be possible to replace the card of wireless mini-PCI Intel 5100AGN with version 4965AGN or 5300AGN?

  The thing is, recently I bought the Satellite P300-23F. Great laptop. Apart from one thing. I use the Intel 5100AGN wireless. Type of damage, the rest of the components used to build this laptop are high-end. I would have liked to see the 5300AGN of even the old 4965AGN adapter instead. These are both a bit more expensive, but still on the market for the price difference is a simple slice of $20. The 5100AGN TX is only 150 Mbit, which is half as fast as the two other Intel wireless modules. In general, a lot of people seem to have problems with the 5100AGN, seems to be a troublesome product altogether.

  Performance of the real world of the 5100AGN on a Linksys WRT54G is around 15 Mbps (1, 8 MB/s). My other computer laptop, equipped with a 4965AGN will be double that in the same circumstances. Tried all the drivers I could find, but the above values are the best I can get.

  I think that this should be possible, but you must use Mini-PCI cards.

• Satellite P300 PSPCCE: Atheros AR9281 wireless network adapter are not all networks

  I have a Satellite P300 PSPCCE with Atheros AR9281 wireless network.

  After a clean install of Windows 7, I can't see wireless networks, unless I connect an Ethernet cable to my wired network card.

  As soon as I take the cable on wireless networks disappear. This computer had Vista and it worked fine there. I tried latest drivers available from Toshiba, but that makes no difference.

  I have tried disabling the wireless and turn market as well with the FN and F8 key and switch on the front. I also tried to uninstall. But it's always the same.

  If someone has had this problem and is there a solution to this?

  Bjarni cordially

  Hi mate

  To be honest I never did experience even with a WiFi card and I have no idea why the LAN cable affects WLan card functionality, it makes no sense to me!

  First, I recommend that you check the settings of the router and reset if necessary
  In addition, you should go to the s for laptop BIOS settings and set its default value.
  Check the version of the BIOS if newest is available, then an update would be worth a try

  You use the Atheros Wlan configuration tool?
  If this is not the case, try this out!
  It s a configuration tool that could be used instead of owning windows wlan settings

• Wireless satellite P500-026 - often disconnected

  So I have a Toshiba Satellite P500-026 (http://www.bestbuy.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?sku_id=0926INGFS10127716&catid=2697 5 & PCName = laptop_toshiba & login = & langid = EN) and it is not connected to my network and frequent disconnects.

  It is very annoying and needs to stop, but I don't know what it is. I'm sure this isn't the network and my initial which was fine because the network name and the name of the laptop are the same that's why his cause... but no. Maybe the drivers?

  Help!

  Thank you

  Hello

  Yes, it's maybe a driver s problem. You should try to update the driver WLAN in my opinion. You can download the latest version here:

  Before installing the latest version, I recommend to remove the old first and then reboot the laptop.

• Satellite P300: Sometimes WLan disconnect Internet

  Hello

  I have Toshiba P300 with exactly the same problem, except that I use the included wireless Lan Adapter factory. I do not use external modems directly connected to the P300. All parameters controlled, disconnected firewall, AVG linkscanner disabled. XP works perfectly that this laptop with Vista has a curious problem.

  Every now and then (from 2 minutes to 2 hours) access will increase to local access only and sometimes (without reboot or repair). In other cases, only the http (IE) traffic stops (cannot display the Page) work while mail is accessible.

  I am desperate because nobody has any idea. Please can someone help me?

  Thank you Patrick

  Hello

  You should update the Vista in the last State and should also update the BIOS and Wlan driver!
  The WLAN driver update is required.

  I put t have an idea of what Wlan card you have, but the drivers are located on the Toshiba Wlan driver page:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

  either directly on the WiFi card manufacturer site.

  If this problem does not appear usign Win XP, then it must be a Vista or Vista Wlan driver problem

• No satellite P300 - 18 M no wireless connection with Win XP Pro

  Hello people!

  I recently bought a P300 - 18M and installed Windows XP Pro SP3 on it. Everything works fine except the wireless connection. He know the switch for wireless connection is disabled because it is not all networks, although the switch is on and the wireless LED is lit.

  I checked the FN + F8 keyboard shortcut, I chose wireless only here...

  I downloaded the Intel drivers latest 5400 for the network card, but it is always no network :(

  Who can help out me?

  Hosts the Netherlands, Leon

  Hello

  There is also a WLan switch on the side of s for laptop.
  This switch must be activated also.

  Please check this!

  In addition, you can consult the WLan card properties in Device Manager.
  There should be an Advanced tab.

  There are different parameters, you should check out. For example, you can choose different WiFi standards such as 802.11 A B G, etc.

• Re: Satellite P300 with Windows7 - wireless network card can not find my BT homehub

• Satellite P300 - 21 k - how to use the mouse Toshiba BT wireless

  Hello

  I have a new Toshiba blue tooth wireless mouse and I tried to make it work with my Satellite P300 - 21 k, with a Bluetooth dongle.
  But the mouse does not work, help please.

  I'm not very good with technology is if there is a guide step by step to set it up with the dongle.

  Thank you
  Mike

  Hello

  I think it is not very complicated to install and configure this mouse.

  Simply activate the BT on your P300 using the FN + F8 key combination.
  This combination FN active WLan too so don't forget that you have chosen BT!

  I don't know if you have to choose new BT connection such as the use of a BT keyboard or a mobile phone, but first try without creating a new connection perhaps the mouse will be recognized automatically m.

  Here, on this Toshiba BT portal, you will find also some details about BT:

• Satellite P300 - 20 H cannot find a wireless connection

  Hello

  Can someone help me? My Satellite P300 - 20H can not find the wireless router.
  He works very well before both at home and work, nothing has changed, but the laptop now cannot find a connection.

  Everything works fine when I connect the ethernet cable, but as soon as I unplug NOTHING.
  The router is in the same location as always, and no electric element in surplus is around.

  I guess it must be something to do with the laptop because it is the same at home because it's a job, WITHOUT JOY.

  Thank you

  Richy.

  Ohhm man.
  There are many discussions on the problems of WiFi and I hope you read some comments here that provide some tips.
  Did you?

  Firstly it should check if the WiFi is enabled correctly.
  Activate WLan switch (LED should be lit) and use the FN + F8 to activate the WLan.
  In addition, the WLan configuration should be checked! (SSID, encryption type, password encryption, etc.)

  Last but not least make sure your WLan driver is up-to-date.

• Satellite P300 - changed keyboard

  Well, I'm running a Toshiba Satellite P300 and I'm having the problem.

  I just returned it to repair and they changed the motherboard. I've updated the BIOS. I did a clean installation of the operating system to Windows 7 which. I don't have this problem before he went out for repair but now when I press the Num Lock key, it becomes my keypad numbers, as expected, but also modifies the right side of my keyboard to numbers together which is very frustrating.

  I've been surfing for 2 days online find a solution to it and has even called the tech who was in charge of the repair and no one has all the answers for me.

• Re: Satellite P300 PSPCCE - wakes up to the top by itself

  My Satellite P300 pspcce starts to turn more * on * after I manually dump it * off *.
  This happends in the minute following the judgment.

  I started noticing this after that I installed my wireless card, I turned the wake on lan/wlan function * off * in the Bios. But it does not help...

  Before installation of the Wlan card the computer woke up from his sleep too, but not when it was closed.

  I looked in properties of the Wlan card but I couldn't find any wake-up function.

  Any ideas where to look next?

  Hello

  As far as I know THAT BIOS includes more options wake up; so I also recommend disabling these options
  Wake on keyboard
  -Battery clock criticism
  - and Wake-up on LAN (but it seems that you have already disabled)

  In addition, the LAN card support a wake on LAN function in the own properties.
  You should check this in the Device Manager-> properties-> Advanced tab LAN card.

  Also, I read that it automatically updates windows could wake the portable computer too. Try to disable the receipt of the update and check if it would improve your situation.

• A few quick questions about the Satellite P300 - 18 M

  Hello

  I am about to order a Satellite P300 - 18 M and have just a few questions about this:

  (Although these may apply for other similar Satellite/Equium P300.)

  Is the touchpad made by / to use the Alps or Synaptics driver?

  It has the Wireless N network card, is the map made by Intel or Realtec?

  And also, someone has experience with face recognition software to connect?

  If so, does it take a lot of time to initalise?

  Thanks in advance,
  Jack

  Hello

  The P300 - 18M belongs to the PSPCCE series.
  It uses the two touchpad drivers. Synaptics & Alps Electric
  There is an Intel 802.11agn minicards WLan installed

  The face recognition is a nice tool but local to be illuminated and you must take your face the right of the post sometimes it of not very easy

  But if you face is recognized correctly that the connection should work properly

  See you soon

• Satellite P300-1 year - Touchpad problem with AC adapter / CC

  I have a laptop Satellite P300-1 year and from the beginning (two weeks)
  I have a touchpad problem: it will not immediately responsive and the pointer shakes when pressing the key. Very often, it freezes for only one or two seconds.

  It's VERY annoying. A USB mouse works perfectly.
  I tried to reinstall the drivers of the ALPS, tried Synaptics ones, just try Windows Vista drivers: no way.

  Now, I found the reason: this question is present only when the laptop is powered by the AC adapter / CC.
  With the battery, the touchpad is perfect.

  I contacted Toshiba Service and thay said that they do not change the AC adapter if I don't mean before a full system restore!
  Is it not more simple just try with a new adapter and then only, if the problem persists, try more drastic procedures?

  Anyone had this same problem?

  > I contacted Toshiba Service and thay said that they do not change the AC adapter if I don't mean before a full system restore! Is it not more simple just try with a new adapter and then only, if the problem persists, try more drastic procedures?

  The point is that your laptop should be always verified using the Toshiba factory setting.
  Why? Because the ASP wants to make sure that this issue is not related to a software problem (compatibility problems with applications 3rd part). Software problems are not covered by the warranty.

  In addition the ASP will always recover the laptop before the verification of the pieces of equipment to malfunction. Therefore, you should always back up your data from the HARD disk until you send the laptop to check.

  I recommend you to reinstall the operating system using the Toshiba recover disc and then check if the problem appears.
  If yes you can contact ASP and could provide all the necessary details for only one technician.

  Good bye

  Hello

  Have you checked if the address Mac filtering settings can affect the WLan functionality?
  If the MAC address filtering enabled your WLan card mac address has been inserted, then your laptop wouldn't connect.

  Also I recommend you check the settings of the WLan card TCP/IP.
  In the TCP/IP properties, you must set options for automatically

  PS: have you checked whether your P300 is the latest BIOS?

• Satellite P300 itself keeps restarting after the initial splash screen.

  My Satellite P300 itself keeps restarting after the initial splash screen.

  Start-up of the first screen with the F2 and F12 options down is displayed, the screen goes black, then a cursor appears in the upper left corner and flashes once or twice. Then the laptop stops and restarts and goes through the same process again and again.

  That's all with the power adapter is plugged in. If disconnected, he goes through the above process and close with no reboot.

  Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

  Start your laptop and enter the settings of the BIOS (F2). Set to its default value. Restart your computer, and press F8 to access the advanced boot menu.
  To start the laptop in safe mode and let us know if it works, try it please.
