Satellite R840 - 12 c: cannot manually turn off the WiFi function

I recently bought a brand new Toshiba Satellite R840 - 12 c Notebook.
The Wifi light is still "on" and the function key does not work, in other words cannot manually turn off the WiFi feature.

Although the WiFi feature is still "on" I can't connect to wireless modem. "

When I go to Device Manager I find conflicts in "other devices" for

1. network controller
2 PCI Simple Communications Controller
3 unknown Device

Tried updating drivers connecting via ethernet cable to the modem, but nothing helped.

Can anyone help?

Hello

Have you installed the driver WLan?
The laptop seems to be equipped with the Atheros AR9285 WiFi card and in most cases the Fn + F8 key does not work because the Wlan driver is not installed or is not working properly.

Recommend first of all remove the network card wireless from Device Manager, then restart the laptop. After restarting again install the new driver Atheros Wlan downloaded for this wlan card.

Here you can find all the drivers Wlan published by Toshiba:

  • HP Probook 645 G1: Turn off the wifi when it is connected to the wire

    Hello

    I have a HP 645 Probook G1 A4 - 4300 M / 4 GB / 500 GB SSD/DVDRW/14 "HD/W7P 64B latptop.

    I also have a model Dockingstation REPLACEMENT-I10X.

    I have attached an ethernet cable on the docking station that works. My problem is that when I connect my laptop to the docking station. Get a priority above wired wireless. If the laptop still uses wireless unless I turn it off manually.

    Ofource I want to log out manually. I want the phone choose wired when wired and wireless when wireless.

    I tried a couple things:

    1. I went setings adapter--> advance--> Advance settings--> moved the connection to the lan network to a network connection wireless, top of page bottem. it did not work

    2. I manual put several metrics in connection properties (internet protocol 4 & 6--> Properties--> Advanced--> change automatic metric to manual and filled a small number to wired connection (No. 5) and filled a higher number (No. 250) to the Wi - Fi connection.) it did not work

    3. looked in the bios menu. There is no option to change the priority or something like that.

    Now, I always disconnect the wifi when I'm attached to the docking station (even tried plugging an ethernet straight cable to the laptop, but that has not helped either). Problem is when I unlock the laptop from the docking station, I have to manually reconnect to the wireless network.

    Additional info: since my laptop is always closed when it is locked on the docking station, I cannont press the WIRELESS button to disconnect or connect.

    Any suggestions help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello:

    See if the BIOS of your laptop computer has a LAN/WLAN, commissioning.

    On my HP Elitebook 6930p it is a parameter to enable the LAN/WLAN switch that automatically turns off the wireless card when an ethernet cable is connected, and vice versa.

  • How can S2340T, I turn off the touch function?

    I am running the S2340T monitor on a Windows Pro 8.1 System.  Touch calibration occasionally goes haywire, but I've always been able to open the tool pen and Touch and recalibrate.  Except that now, it doesn't seem to be "holding".

    As I rarely use the tactile aspect of the screen and am completely comfortable with my trackball mouse, I would just turn the tactile aspect * off *.

    How can I do this?  I know that you go to the Device Manager, but how to know what 'Human Interface' element it is?  I'm a gamer, so I have a * lot * of human interface elements.

    Thank you!

    Disconnect the monitor cable computer USB upstream will turn off the monitor to "touch" feature This means that you will not be able to use one of the USB ports monitor downstream.

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L500-1GL (comes with Win 32-bit =) and since I installed the latest updates I can not disable the wireless function. When I use the shortcut key to activate or disable the indicator led is turning on and off, but the wireless feature is always turned on and even the icon which shows the network connection, itself changes without doing something with it.

    A few times it shows Red Cross (as she has no connection), but says: connected. When I use wireless connecton always displays the cable connection icon. most of the time, when he should have been showing the strength of the signal.

    This is reaally annoing. Please help me solve this problem.

  • Cannot turn off the tool function automatic scaling in Illustrator...

    I'm transforming an ellipse. Basically, I need to drag the left edge in a little bit, non-proportionnellement, resizing is like a circle. When I try to do, rather than the usual features, my cursor turns into an ellipse with a line dotted around it and it won't let me scale proportionally from the Center (as if I had the shift and option key, which I did not). It makes me NUTS. I just want to be able to manually transform the circle without these things and the NEED to turn this feature off.

    I'm in Illustrator CC. SHIFT key or my option is stuck in down position.

  • My wifi continues to try to connect to each router everywhere wherever I travel. She interrupts the cellular data service / until I turn off the wifi.

    I recently reset my network settings. Now, everywhere I go, my wifi (6 more) continues to try to mate with every wifi it crosses. My cellular data cannot connect as he tries (unsuccessfully) to connect, so I have to turn it off to connect to internet. And then, of course, I forgot to turn it back on later when I'm at home, which then uses the data.

    I think I solved my own question by asking the administrator password when switching to wifi networks, and the parent controlled account obviously didn't administrator privileges.

  • If you turn off your WiFi router is still sending wireless signals?

    I have the wrt54g router and if you set the 'disabled' wireless settings which means that WiFi is disabled, which stops the router actually send wireless signals?

    I guess my question is do the WiFi compatible routers send wireless signals even if you "turn off" the WiFi option on your router? Thank you.

    The WRT54G is an active wireless router. If you select off in the wireless tab then the router will not any signal wireless broadcast.

  • How to turn off the menu of the camera on Satellite A205?

    About a year and a half ago, I bought a laptop Satellite A205-S462. It came with a camera that I never had a use for. I managed to turn off the camera, but the context menu pop still annoyingly when my mouse goes to the left of the screen.
    Can someone tell me how to disable or hide the menu permanently?

    In addition, because I'm not a big fan of the use of memory on the facilities that I don't use, I guess it's a service I need to stop. But which?

  • Turn off the problem on Satellite Pro A210

    I'm having a problem with my Satellite Pro A210, running on XP. It seems to turn off without reason. I don't think it's a problem of overheating as it can sometimes after only a few minutes of use, and can stay on the day without problem. It is as if he goes into hibernation, although the blue power light remains on, but cannot be restarted without turning off the power and then walk back.
