Satellite Z830 - drop out Wireless adapter / conflict with USB

My Z830 Satellite has a weird problem. Wireless connectivity works well until I have plug in a usb key into the usb port 3 on the side. The wireless, then falls after a period and then it does not find the available wireless connections. It effectively kills the wireless adapter, or at least makes it less reliable.

You must restart to recover the connection. I tried with several different usb storage devices with the same result. Both wireless and usb drive work fine, but not at the same time. This occurs regardless if the use of the battery or when it is plugged. I checked the power settings to ensure there wasn't a problem there. Everything is right on install/factory in general settings, so I can't imagine that's all what I changed.

I'm at work, but I'll see if I have the same problem with the usb at the back, or a disk takes hard usb powered, when I get home. It's really annoying, because you cannot use the net and let in a usb disk without risking a fall on the. I haven't checked messing around with settings of USB root hub or from IRC, as it seems unlikely. Any thoughts or is a matter of "give it back to Toshiba" - I'd rather not have the downtime. It took me a while to work on this has been the problem.

The wireless connection is very strong when the ultrabook is used, so is not a question of signal strength.

Hello

To be honest, I've ever read on similar issues.
Did you check if the problem occurs with other ports USB or does it use a special port of Z830 Satellite?

In your case I recommend also using HARD drive recovery option and to set the system back to factory settings to make sure that there is no software related issue.

  • Satellite A660 - need driver wireless adapter

    I recently did a clean install, and while I have most of the drivers, I can't seem to be able to properly install the wireless network card drivers. Whenever I try to install the WLan Intel driver from the Toshiba page, it installs something or rather adapter Realtek family which is fine if I connect the laptop to an Ethernet cable, but what I need is a wireless adapter.

    I downloaded and tried to install a wide range of drivers for the specific model for x 64 Windows 7 downloads page, but no, there is no wireless card.

    It is a model of PSAW3A-07S00R, running on 64-bit Windows 7.

    Thank you.

  • Satellite Z830 - limit of wireless reception

    I love my new Ultrabook but have been disappointed by the ability of wireless reception when, in an area of low signal strength.

    My work laptop is not a problem in the same area. Is there a way to strengthen the capacity of the Ultrabook Z830 of Satellite to receive signals without low resistance wire?

    Hello

    I guess you use Notepad in dough mode means that the laptop is not connected to the power adapter.
    In this case, you should disable for the WLan to save energy.
    This can be done in the power of Windows 7 options.

    Have a look here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD12017W0001R01.htm

    define a maximum return for the battery and ac adapter and test it again.
    In addition, an update of the Wlan driver could contribute to improve performance.

  • Satellite L300-1AP - Realtek wireless adapter disappears

    I found many problems similar to this forum, but nothing that matches this one. Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Occasionally when I start my laptop I can not connect to wireless networks. My internet connection is fine by a cable.

    I found that when this happens, my "Realtek RTL8187B Wireless 802. "11b / g 54Mbps USB 2.0 Network Adapter" does not appear in Device Manager, even when I get it to show hidden devices. When I add legacy hardware and install the realtek adapter, it appears in Device Manager but says it cannot start because of "code 10".

    I deactivated and reactivated it, but the same problem occurs. I uninstalled and downloaded the driver from the Toshiba website, but the same problem occurs. I updated my BIOS and disabled the function, which is has not always worked WLAN energy saving.

    Annoyingly, this always works from time to time if I restart my computer. The map on the Device Manager and my works wireless according to normal. Then when I restart again, it will disappear again.

    I use Vista 32 bit and given to restore the system, but until I do, he does what anyone has any suggestions?

    I put really know what may be the problem but I can't imagine it's a software related issue. I've never seen something like that.

    In my opinion you should backup all of your important data, install the original Toshiba recovery image and test it with clean OS preinstalled and factory settings. Don't install anything, just test it several days to see if the same thing will happen again and again.

    If so, I assume that this is material junk.

  • Satellite A500-1GL - card wireless adapter problem

    Hi all

    I had a problem with the card wireless on my laptop for months and have no idea how solve more.

    Basically, the wireless card seems to go through phases does not turn on. One day I can boot up my laptop and it works fine, then the next day it won't work. The wireless button on the front of the laptop is turned on but don't turn on the red light.

    In the past, I've managed to get over this by several reboots the laptop (until he decides to work) or reinstall flash, wireless etc. drivers card drivers. However, none of these things today seem to be making a difference.

    The worst, it's that there is no continuity with when it does not work and how it is fixed (sometimes reboot once fixes it, other times reinstall drivers fix it and so on).

    For this reason, I assumed that this may mean that there is some sort of hardware failure? But if I run the laptop in safe mode, the wireless still works without any problem.

    Someone has an idea what is happening?

    Any help would be appreciated,

    Liam

    Hello

    First of all I would like to know what system you are using and if you have tried to recover the laptop to factory settings in the past.

    The point is that these issues are mostly related software and could be solved by resetting the system.

    However, I think you know that the wireless network card can be turned on and off using the FN + F8 key combination.
    Have you tried this combination in the past?

    Second, you must check the WLan card status in Device Manager.
    The point is that problems of card driver WLan, Wlan card doesn't would be not listed correctly in Device Manager. So this should be the next step.

    Where the Wlan card is listed correctly, I assume that the driver is installed and working properly.

  • No external boot on Satellite Z830-10J - SOLUTION

    After changing the options in the BIOS, I'm on this forum and found a solution, which does not work for me.

    The book u refuses everything I tried booting. USB and DVD - key in each port, BIOS everything that can be changed.

    Finally, I forgot the USB-2, 5 - HD to make a connection before resetting and: Yes, it works. Acronis initialized drives, so I can join, once the Satellite is committed to start the external device.

    The other thread was closed, although my solution is not mentioned. That's why I created this one.

    I U940 satellite without optical disk driver and construction of my laptop is quite similar to your Satellite Z830.
    I had my machine with pre-installed Win8. After the creation of recovery media (USB), I used my original external USB ODD to install my own Win7 64 bit version using the installation disc of Microsoft.
    Charge after driver SATA I ve installed Windows successfully. External USB ODD has been properly recognized and everything worked OK.

    The only thing I've changed was secure boot option in the BIOS.

    In any case, thank you for your ad.

  • Looking for wireless cards compatible with bluetooth to HP 2000-2d62NR

    Having satisfied the HP (Helpless * beep *) lines of Technical Support and Service the customer with NO results, I wonder if anyone can give me a list of compatible wireless adapter cards with built-in bluetooth.  I want to upgrade the card that came with my system.  Any help would be appreciated. I intend install myself, and I didn't necessarily need to buy it from HP.  The power installed on the system adapter is a Qualcomm Atheros AR9485

    See Chapter 3 of the repair of your model.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/product/HP-2000-2d00-notebook-PC-series/5375422/model/6550396/manuals

    Those are the only ones that work through the white list of BIOS HP who used on all laptop computers until recently.

    You don't have to buy the card of HP, but you have to buy one with the part number listed in the service manual, or it won't work.

    Your best bet would be to get one on eBay by questioning by the HP part number.

    Does it happen with the AC adapter plugged in, or by using only the power of dough mode?

    In which case it would only happen by using battery power mode, I recommend to change the saving parameters as shown here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD12017W0001R01.htm

    Watch wireless adapter power saving Mode settings
    Also an update of the WLan driver would be recommended.

  • Satellite P15-8409, Atheros wireless network adapter problem

    Hello. I'm having a frustrating problem with an old laptop Satellite P15. I restored the phone to default settings using the recovery disk that the system was working very badly. After that, the wireless network adapter has stopped working. In the Device Manager "Atheros AR5001X + Wireless Network Adapter" is marked with a yellow exclamation point. In the menu properties, under general, the State of the device the following is listed:

    The device cannot find enough free resources that it can use (code 12)

    The operating system is Windows XP Home Edition. The same problem has been present in SP1, SP2 and SP3. I also updated the BIOS to V2, but it also did not help.

    At work, we use a wireless internet connection. At home, I have a DSL connection. Curiously, when I plugged the network cable to the House, the yellow exclamation mark disappeared and a wireless connection icon appeared in the network connections window. I assumed that the problem has been resolved by updating to Windows; However when I brought the computer in the office, the wireless adapter was once more in the State I described.

    I searched the internet for the same problem, but was unable to find anything. I would be very happy to help.

    all the best,

    James

    BIOS version is installed on your machine? And you have you recently changed some hardware etc...?

    I don't know what it could be, but in the worst cases, the wlan card has certain shortcomings. You can check this by getting somewhere such an atheros wlan card or intel and install it instead of the one installed.

    Maybe the exchange of cards should solve this problem?

  • 500-100 wireless signal keeps dropping out.

    I just bought a brand new office of 500-100 a HP to replace my self built the aging of the desktop machine. The problem I have is that the signal wireless guard stall at random times, could be 3 times in 5 minutes, could be once in 30 minutes. My router is a Wirelss 5953 method.

    I've never had problems in the past with signal dropped, my phone and pad remain connected and the old pc used to be ok. Is that because I bought this machine that things started to go wrong.

    The intensity of such signal indicated by the bar remains at 4 all the time, then no reason (well, I guess that there must be a reason ) a little yellow exclamation point appears above him the connection limited to words. to get the connection works again, the only way is to disconnect and reconnect again.

    Suggestions anyone?

    PS. It happened again I wrote this...

    Thanks for the advice, but I fugured it myself after some trial and error. At HP support online for an hour, they took control of my desktop computer and change a few things, but it was always the same. So, I moved the pc into the room with the router and hard wired it in, no problems for 2 days.

    So I then unplugged and relied on the wireless, once again no problem for 2 days. Hmm.

    Returns the pc in the original piece and it cooled down the signal DESPITE a 4 bars signal and only 5 m away.

    So... in this new pc wireless card isn't obviously a top model of the line.

    Bought a booster wireless D-Link OfficeWorks (cheap) and plugged into a wall outlet in the same room as the pc,... There's been 2 weeks now and not a single drop out...

  • Wireless adapter has disappeared on my Satellite C660-22V

    Hi, I am very well to this new and have knowledge on this SUBJECT.

    The situation is, my computer had a problem turning on and the opportunity to restore to a previous point in time, that I continued with. After the completion of this and that the computer opens completely, the wireless adapter is no longer meet!

    I tried to look in the network and sharing Center, there is no option for a wireless adapter, only one ethernet adapter unplugged.

    I also looked in the Device Manager and I cannot find any mention of the wireless adapter, I expected to be there with a yellow icon, that means a driver problem, but it is not there at all!

    The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite C660-22V

    Thank you!
    Tom

    > I also looked in the Device Manager and I cannot find any mention of the wireless adapter, I expected to be there with a yellow icon, that means a driver problem, but it is not there at all!

    What devices appear in Device Manager under the category network cards?
    Is any unknown device visible?

    To my knowledge, this Satellite C660-22V has been fitted with a 802.11(b/g/n) of Realtek RTL8188CE WLan card.

    For installation of the driver Realtek RTL8188CE WLan should help to make it work (of course, just in case a missing driver would be the problem)

    By the way: what system are you using?

  • Satellite Pro L40 - wireless adapter does not work - Vista

    I recently had some problems with my laptop.
    A couple of weeks, I put in a disc of OpenSuse.
    It's not stable anything, but locked me out of my original Vista operating system.

    I reinstallled Vista Home Basic, but there are a few problems.
    Mainly, my wireless adapter does not work.

    When I flip the button to turn it on nothing happens and it is not recognized in Windows.
    I installed Atheros Driver, but still nothing happens, light is not yet.

    Any advice?

    Hello

    First check the device-> network adapters area manager
    You see the WLan card? Or the unknown device appears?

    If there is an unknown device, then the WLan driver has not been installed correctly or you tried to install a driver badly these two options are possible.

    Remember that your wireless network card? Maybe it was a Realtek WLan card?

    If it's a Realtek WLan card, try the WLan driver from the Realtek website and look for 802.11 g (RTL8187B) chip or you will simply check the page of the European driver Toshiba too the Realtek WLan driver also appeared on the Toshiba page
