Satellite P55W-B5318 - Wireless Signal to 4 bars only

Hi - my wifi is often at 4 bars, but my other laptops have always been 5 bars.

Is there something different onn the Toshiba?

When I compare my two models of laptops Toshiba the situation is the same. 5 or 4 bars do not make big difference in my case. WLAN connectivity is stable and WLAN speed is very good.

Is maybe the antenna WLAN from another manufacturer.

  • Satellite L750 - low wireless signal

    I have a 5 day old L750 Satellite which can collect only 40% wireless signal less than 20cm from the router and loses signal total of about 2 m of him, turned to Toshiba support who suggested to the restoration of the system, did this and no improvement. Have you checked the Atheros driver and he said to his place to date, also checked the option to which has been suggested in other threads.

    The router is good because my vintage Compaq and ipad2 have full strength signal of several rooms by far.

    Please help as I'm pretty impressed with my first purchase of Toshiba and will return it if I can't solve this problem.

    Hello

    Have you noticed this problem only with the Eco Mode setting or also with power plan to high performance? This means that you must define * Maximum Performance * power option for the WLAN card in terms of power.

    Next to the update of the WLAN driver, you should also check the BIOS version. Take a look at the page if there is a newer version and if so try to update from Toshiba:

  • On Satellite M70 low wireless signal

    I have a satellite m70. It worked very well with the excellent signal until yesterday.

    now, the signal dropped to very low levels. my wireless router is working fine (I checked with a friend)
    is my wireless card faulty? How will I know?

    Help, please...

    Hello

    This happens to you just on the mode of feeding with AC adapter or battery too? In any case has the power management of the WLAN card also at the highest level.

  • Satellite P55W-B5318 - Station Service question

    Hi - I found two different stations so I removed one, but the other has disappeared as well. How can I get it back and have only one?

    According to me, the laptop has been implemented in New Zealand of America by the retail group, that I bought it from.

    Hello

    As I know there are no two different applications with the same name. Maybe you had somehow two shortcuts in two different places.

    I do not use it and I deleted it from the system. If you want to have it again it just visit Toshiba download page and download and install the last available version.

  • Signal not detected on Satellite Pro 6100 wireless

    I have two laptops Satellite Pro 6100, two of them are configured to automatically connect to our local wireless router which they both started.
    A computer is used by myself by my wife; bookmarks, email accounts and so on are different on every computer/hard drive.

    I have problems with one of the computers (mine) - the usual problem with multispindle connectors on the video boards and feeding, then I tried to use "his" computer with 'ma' machine's hard drive.

    His machine does not recognize our LAN with my hard drive installed. He came up with a new network found, but not a wireless network. Also, with this machine and my hard drive installed, can't the machine to search for wireless LANs, the icon does not appear. The switch is turned on for wireless signals and it works very well with his hard drive in it. The network is protected, and the two machines have the same id in them for connection which work fine in the original engine.

    I don't really understand this condition. Something in the bios? Something on my hard drive that is not recognized by the computer? the wrong phase of the Moon?
    Suggestions how to trouble shoot and fix this?

    Both machines are XP Pro on them, latest updates.

    Hello

    Also AFAIK, Satellite Pro 6100 was equipped with different Wlan cards so if use different HDD with different driver then the Wlan card could not be detected by Windows XP.

    Check if the wireless adapter is listed in the Device Manager and recognized correctly.

  • Satellite L755 - card wireless driver is corrupt

    My Satellite L755 was fine yesterday, but this afternoon it started with this disturbing of the yellow dots on the wireless signal meter in the status bar. I ran to the resolution of problems, followed her, and that is to say that the wireless or LAN driver is corrupted. I checked, it is an Atheros chipset, so I got a mate to download the latest driver on the site of Tosh.

    I transferred via an sd card, and it's an Assistant auto running. He ran, the pilot has changed (I checked the dates), but the laptop has exactly the same problem. I know it's windows, as on the start screen, where the windows password box appears, there is a WLAN box and who is showing the complete connection.

    What should I do now? The final move would be to transfer all data on an external drive and go to the total reload of windows on the recovery partition, but it would be a radical gesture.

    Anyone has a suggestion for a less stressful recovery?

    Wireless network adapter installed and listed correctly in the Device Manager?
    Try please restart your router and check the connectivity again?
    Is visible WLAN for your laptop after reboot of the router?

    Try please test with some other WLAN or your WLAN WLAN functionality but without WLAN security.

  • Wireless signal recognized but not internet connectivity: laptop HP 2000, model QE334UA, Windows 7

    I have a 2000 Notebook PC HP, Model # QE334UA, running Windows 7.  The wireless signal is showing all the bars at the bottom right, but I am unable connect wireless to what anyone (for example, any web browser, Outlook, Dropbox).  When you connect via a LAN, however, I have no problem.  Here are some details on what I tried:

    1.) this same problem occurs on all the networks I tried, even if the other computers are on these networks, is not a problem of router/modem.  Yet, I restarted those and nothing helped.

    Rebooted 2.) the computer.

    3.) done a system restore.

    4.) checked IPV4 settings make sure IP & DNS server addresses are configured to automatically get.

    5.) turned on and off the wireless on the keyboard button.

    6.) as gone with the Device Manager and press update driver software for all network adapters.

    7.) deactivated and reactivated all NICs.

    I have read many other forums - than where I got these ideas- and it seems a common problem, but I could not find an answer that works.  I'm not too technically savvy, so maybe I'm missing something, but any help would be LARGELY APPRECIATED, especially because my warranty just expired.

    Thank you

    Zack

    I have it!  It turns out that my SonicWall VPN has been the origin of the problem.  Thank you!

  • On Satellite L750/0 wireless connectivity issues s 5

    I own a laptop L750/0 s 5.

    I seem to have a problem with my wireless connection, where anywhere not at 10 m from the router the connection cuts in and out with the yellow sign 'limited connectivity' always appears. disconnect and reconnect solves the problem for a few minutes. Ive resorted to the close session of the router.

    the computer is 2 months old, the Wlan driver is up-to-date. power options have been configured to be on maximum performance for Wlan etc etc.

    The main thing that annoys me, it's all the others (much older laptops) in our House very much work where mine doesn't. I actually lost performance from where I can get my old toshiba portege m300 to this new wireless signals.

    In terms of information, the computer is running windows 7. Wireless network card is Atheros AR9002WB-1NG.

    If theres any other information that you need, as im sure there will be, I would like to know and ill try my best.

    The router is really new.

    Thanks for your help

    > the computer is 2 months old, the Wlan driver is up-to-date. power options have been configured to be on maximum performance for Wlan etc etc.

    The latest Wlan drivers can be found here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/?page=downloads

    Please keep in mind that you use the latest driver v9.2.0.419.0

    To be honest, I had the same idea to disable the power save for Wlan and it more often it should work are you sure that you have changed this in the same power station that is used when the laptop is running on battery power?

    However, it would be interesting to know if the Satellite L750 uses the same Wlan 802.11 standard, as do other portable
    In the Device Manager-> properties-> Advanced tab Wlan card, you can choose the standard Wlan 802.11

  • E4200 v2 wireless signal power is intermittent

    Just updated firmware for 2.1.39.144146

    have 5 GHz mode - mixed, WPA2, 40 mhz, channel 161 channel width

    the rule 2.4 GHz mode - mixed, WPA2, 20 mhz, Channel 6 channel width

    Online technical support said it could solve my problem, but my old e1000 had a stronger and more coherent (fluctuating) broadcast signal.

    My PC and the router are in the family room at the back of the House. The signal strength is Ok in the first room, but 2nd room in front of the House (30 feet and two walls away) it is 3 bars to nothing all the time. We have a guest who stay with us two days a week. There has never been a problem with the signal strength of the e1000 for recent years, but the v2 e4200 behaves like a piece of * beep *. I spent over 60 minutes with an online support person whose answer was to upgrade the firmware (which of course now removes a direct access to the router via the browser.)

    I hope that someone knows what I need to do to make this work, or it goes back to Amazon and I'll buy another brand of dual band N router.

    Change the channel of your router to 1, 9 or 11 to optimize your wireless signal. Maybe this link can help http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/21132/change-your-wi-fi-router-channel-to-optimize-your-wireless-sign....  If still the same, I think this device needs to be replace.

  • Wireless signal detection

    I have a WRT160N router that I currently use. When I'm doing a my computer wireless signal, my router does not show up on top of the list. It is therefore on the list when I put up like WEP, but will not be displayed when I went back to WPA2. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening? It happens even with my Google phone mytouch.

    Well, I think that in this case you have to modify some additional settings on your router. Follow the steps below and change the settings of your router.

    Open an Internet Explorer browser on your computer (desktop) wired page. In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press ENTER... Let the empty user name & password use admin lowercase...

    For wireless settings, follow these steps: -.

    Click on the Wireless tab

    -Here, select manual configuration... Wireless network mode must be mixed...

    -Provide a unique name in the name box of the wireless network (SSID) in order to differentiate your network from your network of neighbors...

    -Set the Standard - 20 MHz Radio band and change the Standard channel to 11-2, 462 GHz... Wireless SSID broadcast should be enabled and then click on save settings...

    Please take note of the name of the wireless network (SSID) because it's the network identifier...

    For wireless security: -.

    Click the sub-tab under wireless > Wireless Security...

    Change the mode of WPA wireless security, encryption, select AES... Password input your desired WPA key. For example, MySecretKey, this will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone.

    NOTE: The password must be more than 8 characters...

  • Need help to boost my wireless signal to increase the range.

    I have a Dell Dimension 2100 and a Dell TrueMobile 2300 router. The computer is located in my basement. I want to use my Dell Inspiron and an iMac upstairs via a wireless network. When I chatted online with Dell sales department, they gave directions wrong of me to buy a Hawkings wireless signal booster. If they had read this forum before they have answered my question, they would have saved me some time. The Hawkings is not compatible with the true Mobile 2300 because antennas on the router is not removable.  So, I contacted them again and now they suggest the wireless D-Link range booster. http://www.dlinkshop.com/product.asp?SKU=3636205

    Can someone tell me if this product won't work with my system. I do not trust Dell online sellers and I try not to spend the money to access Support Technology Guide.

    I also wonder if this reminder of the range would work as well.

  • Auto detection of the guarantee can not find Satellite P55W-C5200

    I bought a new Toshiba Satellite P55W-C5200 Poland and checked the status of internet security and produces automatic detection and did not find my product.

    Serial number of the box and the laptop are the same, but in the warranty card, it's different.
    Laptop works well, but the box is suspicious looking. I'm uploading photos of the box.

    What do you think about this?
    Is it wrong product?

    This box is not original. I doubt that the laptop is brand new. It can be refurbished or 2nd hand.

    Toshiba never write 'Portable better' on the box.

  • Satellite C660-2EL - Wireless n and the F8 function key does not show

    Satellite C660-2EL - Wireless works sometimes, but mostly not. Wired connection is ok. When does not not Fn 8 does not appear and the wireless card does not appear in the devices.
    Pilot was handed in place.

    Have tried reset default and many other things - yesterday was working - light today and not...

    Help!

    Hello

    If the wireless network adapter does not work or its lack in the device, the FN + F8 key combination Manager would not work.
    So the problem is your wireless network card.

    The WLan card driver is missing or malfunctioning of the WiFi chip.
    The device uses the Realtek RTL8188CE WLan card.
    Have you installed the chip RTL8188CE WLan driver?
    Make sure what you've done!

    Otherwise, if the WLan card is not listed in the Manager (no unknown device or Ethernet controller) devices marked with yellow exclamation point I guess that the module is faulty.

  • Satellite U400 - S00 Wireless connection problem

    I have a Satellite U400, which was lowered to XP Business.
    Wireless networking seems to work only intermittently.
    I can see several netoworks available and that you have selected the office, wireless access Point to connect automatically. It is the only network that I listed for to connect you.

    The laptop often fails to connect the access point, often trying to connect to another nearby wireless device unsecured.
    If I manually select the office network and click 'Connect', it asks for the key wireless (I have enter) and then it connects briefly, gets an IP via DHCP and disconnects quickly about 10 seconds later.

    If I repeat the reconnection attempts, sometimes I am able to keep the connection for several hours, but if I stop and restart I have to repeat the same procedure. I downloaded what I think is the most up-to-date intel wireless drivers, but I would appreciate a pointer to the most recent.

    I'm not using the ConfigFree, just the menu of Windows Wireless configuration base (Zeroconf service)

    This is driving me crazy. Help, please.

    Hello

    I found this thread and I would like to my experience with the U400.
    Yes, I have a U400 and I installed Win XP Pro.
    I have an Intel WLan card and I already updated the driver WLan to the State.

    I found new drivers here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

    I must say that my WiFi works without problem! I have the latest version of the BIOS and I never noticed any problems.

    I must also say that I have don t use tools of any additional WLan configuration but ONLY options specific to Windows and its ok.
    I have disabled the Intel ProSet utility Msconfig and it does not load at the beginning.

    I have configured my OS and laptop computer ONLY connects to my wireless private network.
    Of course if my private Wlan is not available it automatically connects to a WLan unsafe in my range.
