Satellite U940: 2.4Mbit / limit using Intel WLan - N 2230

Hi support and other users,

I have a toshiba Satellite U940 windows 8, brand new laptop with Intel® Centrino® Wireless - N 2230, wireless but I do not get speed greater than 2.4 Mb

http://www.Speedtest.net/result/2844225725.PNG

This result is the same when downloading from newsgroups.
On Ethernet is that the speed is 10 MB

I tried the same thing on this forum http://communities.intel.com/thread/32017
I did have the problem with an older laptop... It is not the router, I get the best speeds with older laptop.

I tried diverend drivers, installed driver update with Windows update, but nothing does.

You hhave a solution, I guess the wireless centrino is not good...

I bought this laptop for high speed with ssd, also need a connection with wifi broadband...

Help please...

Masterdam

Hello

The Intel Centrino Wireless - N 2230 supports WiFi standards 802.11 b/g/n and it runs at 2.4 GHz only
Do you have what standard chosen in your router settings?

Please also see the Wlan standard that is defined for the wireless network adapter. You can do this in
Control Panel-> Device Manager-> Wlan card properties-> Advanced tab

To get the full 802.11 N speed, your router and wireless network card should be on the 802.11 N only.

  • Satellite U940 - stuttering & audio dropouts using NI Traktor Pro

    Hello

    I am DJ & artist and recently bought a toshiba for sets dj ultrabook parade and live sets with traktor pro.
    I also do computer repairs so I know my way around the pc...

    Now, at the beginning I had an occasional stuttering or interruption, which I blamed on the system settings, so I made a few tweaks here and there, disabled some stuf, uninstalled some bloatware...
    Everything seemed ok.

    But my last show was a nightmare, suddenly all hell broke loose! Stutters major interruptions and I had to put in a cd backup which is pretty stupid when live...

    Now, before everyone says its software trakor or a material that is causing the problem... No, this is not!
    A lot of testing already before posting here

    This is a finding of latencymon:

    * CONCLUSION *.

    Your system seems to have difficulties of audio manipulation in time real and other tasks. You may experience dropouts, clicks or POPs - due to breaks.

    Now for 1000 new machine announced as Monster media is not how this machine should run.
    My last chance, if I don't find the sollution is format all and put on clean windows 7 without all the stuff of toshiba which could cause this...

    You mentioned the Wdf01000.sys (Kernel Mode Driver Framework) files in your message.
    As much as I know, that it is a hardware driver internal Microsoft which is placed in
    C: the folder \Windows \System32 \drivers.
    The driver gives you access to the computer or ancillary equipment.

    The reason why this file appear as a troublemaker can be connected to external devices connected to the USB ports as external mouse or other device.

    To be honest, I wouldn't recommend disable or delete this file because it s a clean Windows driver and may be important to keep the system working properly.

    In your case I recommend you check the connected 3rd party devices and also to test the combination of Traktor and Sat with connected U940 adapter mains or battery only. Also test it with WLAN enabled.

    Your comments and good luck would be appreciated

  • Satellite A200-1N2: I should udpate Intel Wlan driver through update of Vista?

    Hello

    I have two questions pls...

    1. I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A200-1N2 core 2 Duo

    There is a * (optional) * updated by Windows Vista to...
    * Update driver Intel (R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network connection *.

    I would like to know if it's a good idea to go for the update of this window gave or not?

    2. I've heard that it has deepened the Start button > all programs > Toshiba > a place where I can go and it could me check for all needed updates for the drivers of Toshiba and all necessary updates...

    Pls any idea where to do it?

    Thank you

    Hello

    This update seems to be linked to the Intel WLan driver.
    I think it s not necessary to update the Intel WLan driver through update of Windows Vista.
    If you want to update the WLan driver then visit the page of the Toshiba Wlan driver or the Intel page.

    With regard to the second question.
    You can visit the European driver Toshiba page and there you can check what newer drivers have been released.

    There is also a tool called Toshiba [Tempro | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/generic/TEMPO_RELEASE/] that keep you abreast of software updates and the latest Toshiba driver as soon as they are released

  • Satellite L350D-213 - how to use the WLAN?

    My mother & father has bought a laptop last week and are having problems with the connection to the sky broadband. Sky Broadband is a netgear router, which has wireless capability.

    My question is how does broadband on your laptop? They need to get a wireless dongle to use, my experience with laptops is minimal.

    Any help much appreciated.

    Hey Buddy,

    I think you should read the user manual. There you can find all the necessary information using the laptop.

    To use the WLAN functionality, you must enable this feature using the WLAN hardware switch on the laptop and the FN + F8 key combination. Check it!

    If the WIFI is enabled, check the configuration of TCP/IP. It s according to your router if you use DHCP or a static IP address.
    In addition you must disable management feature in the management of WLAN power supply.

  • Satellite U400-177 - low connection using Intel Wifi Link 5100

    Hello

    Recently, I have problems with my wifi connection.

    I don't know why, but now the connection is erratic, when my connection was in the recent past 30Mbps is now 1, 10 or 20 I'm talking about 1 feet near the router.

    I have the latest version of the 14.2.0.10 driver and cannot find a solution.

    I think the change of the card with a new one as the Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N 6230.
    Don't you know it is compatible?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    As much as I know there is no information on the compatibility between the Wlan card and laptop computer.
    So you have to test yourself

    But if the BIOS recognizes this Wlan key correctly, then it shouldn't be a problem to use this
    According to the Wlan card specifications, this card allows connectivity to 2.4 GHz to access the old 802. 11 b / g networks and 5 GHz for higher speeds and greater capacity of the network.

    However, I m the U400 laptop owner and my WiFi works correctly.

    But I ve disabled all features for the Wlan that allows using the card with the best performance of energy saving. You can disable this in win 7 power management.

  • Satellite A60 crashes with BSOD using the WLan connection

    Hello

    The son laptop works well 24/7 If you use the local cable network on web access, but as soon as we install Wifi it crashes on a regular basis (2 or 3 times an hour) with BSOD error messages - normally those helps Microsoft cant (via the event viewer report) with but it is often talking about Toshiba phone services but no solution.

    Tried two (netgear) pcmcia & usb (agere) wifi cards - exactly same problem can not maps.

    In desperation re-formatted & resettled Xp & all drivers Toshiba of original Cd of Tosh, then Xp Sp2 & then all the updates/fixes engineering including the bios from site Web of Tosh. Still crashes.

    If the software has - v installed or not makes no difference.

    A 512 extra ram on top of 256 original.

    Any ideas?

    Please believe me that it is not easy to say why the BSOD appears!
    From my personal experience, that the BSOD can occurs because of the problem of critical software, or because of the problem of equipment.

    In your case, it looks like a hardware problem (this is my personal opinion)
    Generally, the laptop should work with the external WLan USB card. I put t see no reason why it shouldn't work t.

    You said that you have updated the RAM on this laptop, I noticed on many laptops than similar issues after a RAM upgrade.

    For example; I inserted the new 1 GB RAM on my old Satellite and received a BSOD. I used a compatible but the BSOD appeared sometimes.
    After the passage of the modules to another location memory my laptop works properly!

    Please check this box. Maybe you could check if the same thing happens with your old module!

    Good luck

  • Satellite L100-179 - possible to use a WLAN PC card?

    Is it possible to use expansion wireless PC card? If so do what card you recommend, I need to connect to a local network.

    Thanks Dan.

    Hello

    Of course, it should be possible to use a PCMCIA WLan card.
    I put t use these cards, but I found some in the net.
    I recommend you to visit a dealer for laptop. I sure you will find many offers of m.

    Another option could be a USB WiFi key. The WLan performance should be the same and it is very easy to use and connect

    Hello

    Recently got a Toshiba L755 and have a problem with the playback audio & video since I got it.
    I've updated the latest drivers for the Conexant HD Audio card and it made no difference.

    Essentially during playback there are a sound intermittent distorted during playback mp3, video playback and online stream.

    I tried different programs and the same thing, however, when I have a LAN cable presents no problem - it's only when I'm connected to the wireless network.

  • Satellite Pro L300 - cannot use Intel ProSet WLan tool with Win XP

    Hello! I have the same problem. I installed a XP SP3 and I can't use the * Fn + F8 * hotkey to activate the WLAN function on or off. Other Fn keys work correctly. The WiFi network also works, but it can be used by the built-in Windows. Intel ProSet or Atheros programs do not work. It seems "no wlan driver installed. The card is a Realtek 8187 B, downloaded the driver on Toshiba support original site. What can I do?

    > WLan also works, but it can be used by the built-in Windows. Intel ProSet or Atheros programs do not work
    If the WiFi works fine using the windows zero configuration then the WLan adapter is enabled and don t get the FN + F8.

    The fact is that your 3rd party WLan configuration tool doesn t work because your wireless network card is * Realtek! *

    Intel ProSet ONLY works with Intel WLan card and the Atheros Wlan configuration tool can be used ONLY if your have an Atheros Wlan card.

    You have Realtek so use windows own zero configuration WLan!

  • Satellite A350 is no longer able to use the WLan

    Hello guys,.

    so... I started using Bluetooth earlier, use of the Internet via a cable... Today I tried to use my WLan again, but it did not work (worked well before).
    So I tried to activate it via FN + F8, but all I can see is activate Bluetooth, one for the WLan disappeared?
    The WiFi light only blinks when Bluetooth is activated. I would rather turn off Bluetooth that not being able to use the WLan.

    Former Satellite A350 was delivered origin with Vista OS, so at first I would like to know if you use original recovery image (OS) that you got with your laptop.
    If I understand you good WLAN card is installed and registered properly in Device Manager. Can you confirm this?

    I have Satellite A300 and a friend of my A350 but WLAn works properly on both machines so I m a bit confused why the WLAN option is missing when you use the FN + F8 key combination.
    I m wondering why WLAN is detected by the system but ignored by the utility of flash cards.

    I'm don't know if this will help, but try to follow:
    Enter the BIOS and set it to default settings
    Reseat the wireless network card.
    Reinstall the extra value package, and check again.

    If the problem persists after doing all this, you have to do a final check and reinstall the OS using original recovery image that you got with your laptop. It's a way more radical, but certainly more efficient to solve a software problem.

  • Satellite A210-14 - strange problem with new WLAN adapter Intel 4965agn mm1

    The initially installed atheros wireless network adapter is just b/g and too slow for my network/needs

    So I bought a one n-project: mm1 4965agn (intel) (he got a toshiba p/n and s/n too)

    I replaced the atheros one and plugged the Intel - booted and installed the drivers - restart-> adaper works very well-> reboot - nb stops at the toshiba BIOS screen without loading all the windows. I can't even to the BIOS-> removed Intel wlan adapt nb boots and as usual.

    Please let me know what I need to do to make things work

    Hi chubbyhamster,

    To me, it sounds like this map isn't WLAN compatible with your laptop. I guess that all wireless network adapters are compatible with all laptops (assignment of pins e. g.).

    As far as I know use fast N project you need 3 antennas. I think Satellite A210-14 has just two antennas because only WIFI b/g card built in. This means that you can upgrade your laptop to the project speed N t.

    Alternative you can use the LAN card or a USB key which takes in charge the project N, but in my view, WIFI b/g standard should be fast enough

  • Satellite S70t-b00c use Intel GPU everything at stake

    Hey guys,.

    Yesterday I bought a new toshiba Satellite S70t-b00c and when I play my games sound using intel Integrated GPU

    How can I fix?

    To switch to the external GPU, right click on the desktop
    In Catalyst Control Center Power, click on select Maximum Performance when it is plugged

    Then in global settings of Switchable Graphics also choose maximize Performance

    Then click on the switchable graphics Application settings
    Now, you would be able to add an app (game) that could use this graphics card settings
    Simply tap the exe of the game and add to the list of applications.
    After that, you will see the exe file in the list. Click the graphics settings and set it to high performance.

    But beware: best performance GPU produces more heat, which leads to a higher internal temperature.
