Satellite Pro L20: connection broadband

I just got broadband installed on my phone line, can I connect my L20 directly to the internet now, or do I need a router broadband or modem as well? I could just plug my phone line into the back to make it work? I used dial up on this subject and also wireless to someone elses House but never normal broadband.

Hello

I think that the laptop comes with a simple modem V90.
Sorry, but you are not able to use a connection with this modem, broadband.
If you want to use the connection high speed, you will need a modem special external broadband or the broadband router WLan that increases data transfer. Between the router (modem) and the phone connector of the device special must be connected which is able to separate the signals.

But everything should be clear of broadband provider you.

  • Satellite Pro L20: Wireless connection is not reliable

    Hello

    We have some Toshiba laptops in the office.

    However, the wireless on our most recent purchase (Satellite Pro L20) installation is very reliable. Periodically he loses sight of the network without apparent reason.

    We have the device permanently connected, and the problem can occur even when the machine is in the middle of copying files to and from the network server.

    The actual wireless access point is within a few feet of distance (in view), so I can't imagine there is a problem of signal strength. Can anyone offer me any guidance?

    I don't know where to start on this one there...

    TIA

  • Satellite Pro L20: battery not charge when the power adapter is connected

    Hello

    all advice appreciated.

    I had a Satellite Pro L20 for about 18 months. Recently, battery does not charge when the power adapter is connected. The battery light starts yellow (which means more liberated, I think?), then will both green, the machine sat for awhile. However the ACPI often said that AC is "offline."

    There are two recent occurrences that coincide with this problem, I try to eliminate:

    1. my friends rat chewed by the feeder for pets! Power is Mobile OK insofar as he fled sector - the rat seems to have simply chewed by the outer cover (I see some threads, but I think that is just a shield, although I'm not an electrician).

    2. I put the laptop in hibernation for the first time. That seemed to mess up the system a bit, which was what initially drew my attention to the problem. This question is a bit complicated because I'm under Linux (Xubuntu).

    I updated the drivers etc from windows when I bought the laptop. Never had any problems until now and have been running linux for centuries. Also, I have mainly the laptop the power supply turned off, but do not remove the battery (is that really a problem these days?)

    I obviously need to replace the adapter, but is - it is likely (and how I can check) that the battery was borked until?

    see you soon
    Chris

    First, please check if the other are lit.
    If the AC led and power led are on the adapter sector is ok and it provides the power to the laptop.

    > The battery light starts yellow (which means more liberated, I think?), then will both green, the machine sat for awhile
    If the battery LED is yellow, this means that the battery is not fully charged and if the Green led changes then recharging is caught and the battery has been recharged.

    So I really don t see any problems with the charge process.

    Maybe the battery is old and so you cannot use it for an extended in such a case only the replacement of the battery could help.

  • Satellite Pro L20-184: Question about upgrading CPU

    Hello
    I bought a Satellite Pro l20 184
    I can replace the Pentium M 735 2 MB of L2 cache processor
    FSB 400 1.7 GHz?

    concerning

    Hello Constantin

    The answer is that no, it is not possible to replace the processor in a Toshiba laptop. The processors used in laptops are connected to the motherboard using a process called TCP (tape carrier package). It is a method of permanent connection and is used in the interest of miniaturization and heat dissipation.

  • Beep on Satellite Pro L20

    You just bought a new Satellite Pro L20 PSL25E-00K00CEN, less than 12 days old. He had these recurring short beep (1-2 sec), perhaps that every 20 minutes then maybe every hour. But no notification of what the beep wasn't on. Laptop works on current electric.

    No external device connected or disconnected. None of the obvious reasons. Beeps occur if I'm working on the laptop or not.
    Would be very grateful if anyone has similar problems and solutions?

    I even turned off "sound and notification" of the Panel, but never stopped beeping!

    Hello

    I don't know what could be the noise.
    The fact is that the beep occurs during the computer laptop startup procedure. It is usually a beep code. But this should not appear in the operating system and if the unit is running.
    However, this seems very strange. Your laptop is fairly new and the warranty is valid. You should ask the Toshiba service partner for review. Maybe he knows more about this strange event.

    Please post again if you will get more information.

  • Satellite Pro L20 does not start

    I have a new satellite pro L20 M750
    does not start
    the thing is since the first time I tried to start it it would not start.
    I bought it over the internet and is still brand new in the plastic bag, would there be anything to make this power for the first time or it is defective.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    Did you check if the AC adapter is working properly?
    Initially, the battery is not charged. You must connect the power adapter to recharge the battery.

  • Cannot charge battery on my Satellite Pro L20

    I have a satellite Pro L20 and I can't charge my battery why? Is there someone for help please?

    Hello

    Why? It is not easy to say, but it may be because of the faulty electronic power.

    Remove the battery, connect the laptop to the power adapter and switch it on. When the operating system starts, put the battery inside and let us know exactly what is happening.

    It will be interesting to know if the battery is correctly recognized and what's with battery LED.

  • Satellite Pro L20 - no color on TV

    Satellite Pro L20 PS25E with mobile Intel 915 video card is connected to the PAL TV and gives only bw image. Settings to PAL BG in the video card, yet only B & W photo. Other forums say this photo card ALWAYS give NTSC and cannot produce the PAL color. Is this true?

    Hope that no, I bought three laptop computers of this type and was eager to connect to the TV in the House. Any help appreciated ;)

    Hi retrieber_1,

    Usually if you get only a black & white picture it's a wrong output setting of your laptop. I think that it s something wrong with the settings PAL and NTSC.
    As a first step, you must update the display driver. Latest you can download from the Toshiba page driver.

    And what cable you use for this connection? S-VHS cable?
    If so try another cable. Use a cable of high quality, especially if you have a cable long enough.

  • Satellite Pro L20 - Fuction key does not

    Hello

    I have a satellite Pro L20 running xp pro. We use at the school, connected to a projector to display on the screen for children to see.

    the problem is that we use the Fn + F5 key on the laptop to scroll the screen option (two screens or not) but nothing happens, it seems that it does not meet our request. and the projector read no source found. Some days she turns on automatically, but when it doesn't. We are stuck, I tried to look into the display properties, but nothing here to try n force both screens light up. Help

    Azab

    Hello

    Also try switching to the external device settings Intel. You can find it under Advanced display settings. I also recommend you to reinstall the TOSHIBA utilities. I'm not 100% sure but it may be responsible for the function FN + F5.

    Also check Toshiba HWSetup under the view tab. Activate LCD + analog RGB option.

  • Cannot get wireless with my Satellite Pro L20

    My Satellite Pro L20 simply does not recognize my wireless network at home - he can't even see when I search for wireless networks. With my other non-Toshiba laptop on - there was no problem and that captures wireless 4 or 5 in my neighborhood.

    My Tosh works well when he hard plugged on the Net, but if you help get me wireless I would appreciate.

    Are you sure that your laptop is an installation of a WLan minPCI card?
    You can check this in the device under network adapters Manager

    If the wireless network adapter is listed in the device manager then you should check the compatibility of the WLan standards.
    If the wireless network adapter supports only the 802. 11 G standard and your router supports only 802.11 A or 802.11 standard B then you will not be able to connect to the WLan router.

  • Satellite Pro L20 would not publish.

    I received a Satellite Pro L20 who had probably overheated (was running with contribution covered and turns off for good).

    So far I had removed everything and mobo appears intact. I had allowed cmos and disconnected the battery, reinstall CPU (tested ot in a separate mobile - good) and I tried to start the internal/external screen with no effect. It starts well, fan turns and responds to the shortcut keys / deals with optical and hard drive but gives no video output. I can't test the ddr2 memory as the other laptop is ddr.

    Is there a way to test the video output somehow? F5 (with connected external monitor) several attempts but don't know if he responded to it at all. It responds to the reset / wireless, powers down and changes corresponding s LED but gives without being eps either. And Board of Directors has no led indicator. Powering with F12 does nothing. And there is a clicking noise when you start (with headphones).

    Any ideas would be very welcome.

    P.S. The profanity? At least mark what you think, it's blasphemy - spend 10 minutes to make it messy and get what abbriviation consider you profanity...

    You already have thougt that the motherboard could be defective? I mean the machine give some answers but it won´t come up anyway. It could be:

    -Defective RAM
    -overheaten CPU
    -some resistance or capacitor on the map
    -Perhaps that you have forgotten something or some metals inside the machine fold which causes some short circuit (there was already this case a few weeks ago here in the forum, the guy disassembled the machine again and discovered that some metal shielding of the base that was turn during reassembly of the laptop.) It caused a brief signs and come the didn t machine..)
    -a faulty device (such as HDD, modem, keyboard, mouse, and any other PCB) which translates the non bootable.

    Check the machine carefully (maybe it would be good to take it apart again), so if the machine after checking the won´t happen then you should give the machine to a toshiba technician. Maybe he knows better?

  • Reinstalled Windows XP now WLAN is not recognized - Satellite Pro L20

    I reinstalled Windows XP on my Satellite Pro L20.

    In Device Manager, I have a number of yellow question marks, which means that the operating system has not installed the drivers and therefore does not recognize the device.

    I downloaded the v5.3.0.35 Atheros Wireless Lan Driver Atheros dated 09/12/07 and tried to install these next to the 'Network controller' device, but nothing helped.

    Someone has an idea of what I might hurt or something else I could try? Sole purpose of the laptop is wireless connectivity, so I'm anxious to get this sort.

    Thank you very much for any assistance you can provide.

    Hello Thomas

    It will be interesting to know what L20 you exactly (L20 - xxx). It will be easier to identify what material is built into it.

    Anyway, as far as I know this laptop comes with operating system Windows XP Home edition and will be best solution to install using the supplied OS recovery media. The OS will be installed just after 20 minutes and all the hardware components are configured correctly.

    Of course, you install OS on your own. On the download page of Toshiba just follow instructions order facilities and avoid all the problems.

    Back to the Atheros WLAN card. After you download the driver Atheros for Windows XP Home edition, open the folder INSTALL and run the setup.exe file. What happens when you do this?

  • Driver LAN for Satellite Pro L20 Windows 2000

    I am looking for a local network (ethernet) drive to my Satellite Pro L20, who has Windows 2000 on it.
    I found one for WiFi, but not for the Ethernet (cable/CAT).

    Hello

    Well, you can t find all the LAN for Win2000 drivers on the Toshiba page because this unit has been delivered and tested with the Windows Xp operating system.
    However, I found the information that the appliance has a CL LAN Realtek 8100.
    In this case, I guess for visit the site Web of Realtek. You can find a compatible driver for this network adapter.

  • What recovery CD to use with Satellite Pro L20?

    We have several Toshiba laptops in use in our society. I need to restore a (a Satellite Pro L20) to factory settings. However, although I have kept all the recovery CD, most of them have labels which do not mention which model they are intended to be used on. On some of them I wrote the model number on the label by hand, but I did not do that for the L20. I know from experience that if I receive the wrong recovery CD, I have to put dozens of drivers and utilities individually, in order to find the right one would save me a lot of time and stress.

    Each recovery CD has a number (for example GMR400626EN1), so it should be possible to identify the good CD of it, but I can't find the info on the Toshiba web site.

    Is there a list that corresponds to the reference numbers for the models of laptop recovery CD?

    Hello

    This info is certainly not available on the Toshiba support site. What you can try is to contact the partner of service authorized in your country. They have access to the database of Toshiba and I'm sure they can help you.

    If you need addresses and phone numbers please check https://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com support & downloads search for an ASP.
