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.

A white cable normally goes to the HAND and a black to the auxiliary voltage

  • Startup gets "Network cable unplugged" on mini-PCI Wireless card

    I recently installed a Netgear DG834GT wireless router and now have intermittent problems connecting my Tecra 9100. If the 9100 has been off for awhile (like overnight), when I restart I get always "Network cable unplugged" for the wireless connection. Reboot several times (anything from 3 upwards) I finally get connected to the router and everything then works fine for hours. Even a quick restart at this point (that is, once that the wireless adapter is connected) does not cause a problem, but as soon as I leave the stop of the machine during a time he fails again on restart.

    There are no errors in the event log.

    I am using wireless mini-PCI cards and have already updated to the latest version of the driver.

    Any ideas gratefully received, for now every morning is a 20 to 30 minutes of rebooting frustration trying to get my connection work.

    (Running Win2K professional)

    Hello

    As far as I know, the unplugged network cable message just for LAN (Local Area connection-LAN) and not wireless.

    If you want to check this map to disable LAN in Device Manager. After starting the laptop turn on the wireless card, check the status using the FN + F8 key combination. Wi - Fi is activated after a short time, you should be able to use your wireless network.

    You can enable the option Show icon in notification area when connected. You can find it in the properties of wireless under the general tab.

  • Satellite T130-17F - upgrade to the Mini-PCI Wireless card

    Card WiFi in Satellite T130-17F doesn't support the 802. 11A / 5 GHz. I would like to replace it with one that is supported. Is this possible? If so, are there any documents that show how do?

    Thanks in advance, Igor Bukanov

    Hi mate

    Usually the laptop supports WLan miniPCI module. This means that usually the other WLan miniPCI cards should work, but I read also here in the forum that it is not always the case and sometimes other WLan miniPCI card would not me recognized correctly.

    But why you try n t a simple solution like a USB WLan stick?
    It is the simpler and in my opinion the best solution for you.
    You will not need to disassemble the laptop. This means that there is no risk of damage and the warranty

    That's why I recommend you try this solution.

  • Satellite 2450-101 Mini PCI card please

    I have a Satellite 2450-101, which is longer under warranty. I upgraded the memory and noticed a mini-pci slot with two waiting for a card antenna cables. I need a g card (the 3300 looks like a good bet). The manual refers to a mini-pci slot and the CD from the laptop comes with Atheros drivers for the same... I am currently using a PCMCIA card but want to spend money with Toshiba to get a good onboard solution. I called Toshiba who say that he is not a slot in my laptop... Please please don't refer me to a partner because I've never actually talked to one yet. Honest answer please... can I mount a mini-pci card... is the 3300 OK, and how do I join the cables (if this is difficult, I won't)...
    Thank you

    Hello

    I found information that your device is ready for the Mini PCI Wireless card. As you know on the wireless card there are two connectors that are marked of PRINCIPAL and auxiliary normally a white cable goes to the ESSENTIAL and a black to the auxiliary voltage

    Sorry, but I can't tell you exactly what wireless card will be the best for you. In my opinion, you should contact partner in your country. I'm sure they can give you correct information, which is compatible with your device and how much it will cost.

    Good luck!

  • Need advice for the purchase of a mini PCI Wireless

    Hello

    I have a laptop Toshiba I bought nearly two years ago. This laptop has an Intel 2200BG wireless chipset, which works, but the quality of connection is quite low. Sometimes, the connection speed climbs, sometimes it falls in total. I tried all the updates driver, power management tips and everything that could be found on the net. Some of these help, but there is always something that doesn't work as it should.

    Long story short, I decided to buy a mini pci wireless card. The problem is that these cards are nowhere to find. There is nothing on the Toshiba site, and apart from a few offers on eBay, there is almost nothing to choose. I know there are other options, but I prefer a mini pci card.

    Can someone help me on this issue?

    Thank you

    Peter.

    Hi Peter

    Can you please tell us which laptop model you have?

    In any case, the network without WIRE Intel 2200BG card is good enough and works very well on my Satellite M70 (with the latest driver). Download speed is very good and I do not need a wireless network card. I don't know what is the problem with WLAN connection in your case, but please try to test with another router WLAN (maybe your friends have all other routers). Also, install the latest WLAN driver for this card.

  • Installation of a missing mini PCI WiFi card in the Satellite 2450 101?

    My Satellite s2450-101 seems devoid of a WiFi card.

    There is no mention of such a card in the adapters in device Manager\Network, which lists the following three elements: 1) 1394 Net adapter MAC bridge Miniport) 2 and 3) Realtek RTL8139/810 x Family Fast Ethernet NIC
    The Wireless Communication switch on "on" does not have the led lights up.
    By pressing Fn + F8, that should turn the wireless LAN has no effect.

    Responses to the following would be much appreciated:

    The laptop S2450-101 comes equipped with a mini PCI WiFi card in standard, or not?

    If so, how can it be activated?

    If it is not the case, how can we install such a mini-PCI card? The laptop is more two years and more under warranty.

    Sincere thanks.

    Hello

    I found the info that this unit is ready WLAN and is attributed to the WLAN option in option. Check please the Device Manager and see if the wireless adapter is listed under network adapter. If this is not the case, the device is without wireless network card.

    Let us know if the card is on board and we can write once again how the card must be activated.

    I'm not 100% sure but I think that the WLAN slot is placed under the keyboard. There is also the antenna cables (black and white cable). Update is not a problem, and you can only do so at your own risk of course. ;)

    Unfortunately I put t know exactly what WLAN card is compatible. If you want you can use the external solution. It is much easier.

The main request is where can I connect the wires black and white to. will I need to download a driver or will the device automatically recognized? Are there other issues to be aware of?

    Thank you

    Hello Wally

    As far as I know there are two connectors that are marked with the HAND and to THE.
    In this case, please connect the white cable to the HAND and the black cable to the auxiliary voltage
    Additionally, you have the drivers and Utilities CD Utility & Tools, or you can download it on the Toshiba site. To my knowledge, the PA3300U-1MPC is an Atheros WiFi card.
    Therefore, you need Atheros AR5001X Mini PCI Wireless Network Adapter V2.1.2.16 and Atheros Client Utility V2.1.2.16

    The OS is Windows XP Professional.

    Can someone help me?

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    Win XP drivers are OK but your laptop was equipped with the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 graphics card and the driver on the page supports only Mobility Radeon HD 34xx/36xx chips graphics!

    If you need driver XP then you will need to use a 3rd-party pages google simply.

    The audio driver and modem driver also work.
    But you must first install the MS patches: KB835221 and KB888111:

    They are part of SP3, but you must first install patches, then the drivers.
    If you have already installed the driver, then you need to remove it first before install you MS patches!
    Then it should work

    See you soon

  • Cannot start from the CD in my Satellite P300-23F

    Hello

    I'm trying to fix the old laptop from my brother. It's a Toshiba satellite p300-23f. The laptop did not work well, so he bought another. I think he might have a problem with the HARD drive, but I'm not sure about this and want to try to format the HARD drive and reinstall the operating system.

    When I start from the disc HARD I have no problem, insiders of OS normally, and I can 'use' laptop. The problem is when I try to boot from the OS CD. I get this message "Media test failure, check cable". I know the CD works, because recently I have instaled the operating system with this CD on another computer. I know that the CD player (not sure if it is called like this, but I think you understand what I mean) also works very well, because I tried different CD and it worked.

    I've tried pressing F12 and boot from CD it and also tried to change the BIOS and put the CD in the first place, but it does not work.

    No idea what's going on? Is it possible to make it work?

    Stand by.
    When Windows is completely loaded, you can use the optical disk drive and it reads all CDs and DVDs?
    When you put your Windows Windows installation disc can see the contents of the disc in Windows Explorer?

    Maybe you can use the CD but not DVD. check it out please.

  • Clock speed of the Radeon HD 4650 in the Satellite P300-23F

    Hi all!

    I am interested by the Satellite P300-23F because of its nice, these two drives huge CPU and - finally and above all - good price. But I can't estimate exactly its graphics performance, because I could not find information about the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 used in this book's exact clock speeds.
    Did someone already has a P300-23F? If you do, could you please read the core and the memory clocks the GPU with a tool such as the CCC or GPU - Z? Perhaps you have also information about the temperatures of the CPU and HARD drive and also on the performance of the HARD drive?

    Thank you...

    Hello

    To be honest I m P300 owner but not the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 is known as M96 ATI with DDR3 (1 GB) of graphics ram.
    I think that it s is not easy to say some details about the exact chip GPU clock speed because it of always different. It depends on the use of the laptop and the temperature.
    You must know that the performance of the GPU are controlled by the graphics driver and if the temperature increases to a critical level, that the pilot might slow down the chip so decreases the heat dissipation.

    The temperature of the processor and HARD drive depends on the use of the laptop too.
    If you run games high performance, then the temperature increases to a higher level and would be higher than the execution of only a few common tools such as MS Office Word for example.

    However maybe someone could put some values and details, it would be really interesting.
