Slow 3G in Portege Z930

I have a Z930 and since I have had the 3 G is very slow.

I had a R800 before with built in 3G and I know that the coverage is good for 5 to 10 Mbps in my house and my office and many other places I visit regularly.

Since then put the card SIM in the Z930 is so slow, usually get only 1 MB/s - if that. If you do a speedtest it winds at 1 MB/s with the box in upload of only 0.1 or 0.2. What's worse, is that it is a really spotty connection speed, fortification. If you look at the chart on the speedtest it sits on almost 0Mbps jumps right up, then again - as his "choking and spitting." I know that connections fluctuate a bit, but this is really not normal.

I even replaced my 3UK with a T-Mobile SIM to see if it makes a difference, but it's not. Even with plenty of HSPA + is still having trouble getting 1 MB/s.

I have uninstalled/reinstalled in Manager of peripheral and installed and reinstalled the drivers newer 3G and Manager wireless but always garbage.

Wi - fi works very well and I also used Fiddler2 to control traffic, but nothing unexpected seems to be chewing bandwidth.

Any ideas?

Hello

I think that two units of the same media module 3G. If the performance doesn't have to be really different.
Recommend to ask an ASP in your country for a cheque that I meet a guy here in the forum, which had some problems with 3G and, finally, the question was related to faulty 3G module

  • Portege Z930 - display driver does not work properly

    Hello

    We have a Portege Z930 with Windows 7 64 bit in use where the Intel display driver seem to work fine.

    First problem is the slow presentation on screen - if we open a (simple JPG) photo and move the window, the frame window break during the move and showed very weird.

    Then, we have installed a U3.0 dynadock docking for the use of two external displays more. This method works even worse. To the docking station, we used the driver from the CD supplied in the delivery and connect to a USB 3.0 connector.

    On starting switching on 2 screens instead of internally for computer laptop screen does not work - and we use workaround of using an extended desktop on all 3 displays (2 external and internal display for laptop as the third).

    In Internet Explorer, it should turn off GPU Rendering and use Software Rendering rather because otherwise, we observed critical irregularities on the external screens (with 2 Windows Open the screen froze or could not display Windows Mobile). However the display isn't satisfactioning.

    We have tried 3 different versions of the recommended Driver Intel which is also offered by Toshiba to download; We loaded it is there and also 2 versions more (a more recent, one older) Intel directly.

    So, how can we get this working properly?

    Thanks in advance and best regards,
    N. Cochems

    More importantly. Make sure you have Service Pack 1 installed Win7. New laptops have problems running in win7 RTM (without service pack).

    It seems that Windows uses the standard VGA driver instead of the Intel driver. Uninstall all display drivers from Control Panel-> programs and features and then go to the Toshiba website and install the utility Intel Chipset then the Intel display driver, then go to DisplayLink.com and install the latest DisplayLink driver for the dynadock. The new software v7.xx DisplayLink driver fixes several issues found in v6.xx drivers.

    Verify that the Intel drivers are installed properly in Device Manager.

  • Portege Z930 - new Windows 7 and installing the driver

    I have a Toshiba Portege Z930 Ultrabook.

    I don't use it for a while because he was very very slow when navigating or attempt to perform other tasks. I scanned the system with several antivirus (now I have Avast and Fixila, but I also used Kaspersky and Norton) and nothing came.

    Now, I decided to reinstall Windows.
    So, I received a kit of Windows 7 Pro (it's the license granted with the laptop) and I'm fighting for a week to make it work properly.

    Now seems as graphics card does not work, I have most of the hard disk full some old files of windows, etc, etc.

    1. How is the right way to install a new version of windows on this laptop (without the old installation files) and use the accessories available on the laptop (graphics card, fingerprints... tool)

    And YES, I tried all THE drivers available on the Toshiba support successfully section only for the wireless card.

    2. have you had problems with the speed?

    Thank you
    Victor

    Hello

    > Now looks like graphics card does not.

    Does that mean exactly? Graphics card is recognized correctly in the Device Manager?
    In case it is, the driver is installed and works of the GPU.

    What Portege Z930-xxx are you?
    The exact part number might be useful to check the specs of the laptop.

    By the way: the driver / software installation is not very difficult.
    Forget the other Toshiba software if you n t want to install it
    Pick up the pilots only...

    However, some parts of the software as a value-added Package must be installed because this package installs a range of important public services.

  • Portege Z930 - 12 H - update of the BIOS and McAfee Endpoint Encryption?

    The update to the latest BIOS (Ver.6.70) for my laptop Portege Z930 12 H comes with the warning:

    «If you use the BitLocker Windows Drive encryption, please temporarily suspend (or turn off) before BitLocker Drive Encryption updated BIOS.»

    The same caveat applies to McAfee Endpoint Encryption, which is used on my laptop and I can * not * pause or stop? Or can I apply the upgrade of the BIOS safely?

    Thank you.

    As much I know Bitlocker isn't related to Antivirus from McAfee software and two security tools are not connected to each other. BitLocker is a tool for Microsoft Windows and McAfee is a 3rd party software preinstallation on the device.

    I found a nice how doc on the update of the BIOS.

  • Portege Z930-146: BSOD running Win 7 64 bit - support pointers and advice

    Hello

    First post following the latter (academia / business) purchase of a Portege Z930-146 (serial number XC141056H, short PT235E part number).

    Configured the pre-installation software 64 - bit W7, local installed, delivery to the primary user (the boss).

    User reports 3 BSOD in a few days - I have the mini-decharges and made first order analysis using blue-screen display:

    PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA (ntoskrnl.exe)
    SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (dxgkrnl.exe)
    MEMORY_MANAGEMENT (ntoskrnl.exe)

    We really are the guys from UNIX, so it is not familiar territory.

    I just updated the BIOS but now have a long (50 +) list of possible drivers also be updated. One at a time to download and install?

    I ran the diagnostics memory and disk - without errors or warnings that are reported.

    Can someone identify a likely problem, or direct me gently in the direction of the road to official support of Toshiba please or suggest next steps?

    Thank you in advance,

    GLM

    Ntoskrnl.exe is a Microsoft kernel boot and the dxgkrnl.exe seems to have something to do with the chart.

    I recommend to check if the update of the display driver would improve the performance of the system.
    Then visit the Toshiba UE driver page, select the Satellite Z930 PT235E and download the latest display driver Intel.
    Z930-146 was equipped with chip Intel HD Graphics 4000, so you need the Intel driver.

    You can also try to download the driver directly from the Intel page since they always provide the latest version.

  • Portege Z930: Loss of Fn keys after upgrade to win 8 - can't turn WiFi switch

    After several months waiting for my hour I just began my Portege Z930 - 11G for Windows 8 Pro upgrade.

    To a large extent, it went to the plan except that, after execution to display the Assistant Toshiba Upgrade I lost the Fn key and about half of the keys no longer seem to work at all.

    The only key I've ever used on a routine basis is the Fn + F8 option to activate the power switch WiFi.

    So now, I can not turn on WiFi on the computer.

    It must, surely, that there be a way to do it, but I'm not. Does anyone have a suggestion? I'm OK for now because I have a local cable system in the House, but once I get out on the road I will fight without WiFi.

    Before running the wizard upgrade of the Fn key grew up the key appear in the upper part of the screen and I want to surely I had turned on WiFi right here.

    The Fn key utility offers very little control of the Fn keys. It does not offer the possibility to do anything else than to disable five notifications screen for keyboard backlighting, power plan, touch pad and cursor overlay digital overlay.

    Any help gratefully received.

    > So now I can not turn on WiFi on the computer.
    First of all, you can enable and disable the WiFi using the function key, but you can also activate the WLan settings of Windows 8
    Key Win + C-> settings-> change PC settings-> wireless

    Now, you can use the cursor to wireless devices to enable or disable the WiFi network.

    But to get the FN button work you need to install the + Toshiba function key + Utility for win 8 and + Toshiba system driver + to win 8

  • Portege Z930 - network WLan problems

    Z930 Windows 7 is 3 years old.
    I'm having problems connecting to the home network and I do not understand the clues to work towards a solution.

    Other laptops can connect to the wired network and wireless, but cant Z930, or down and will not show the home network.

    Appear networks nearby.

    Z930 can connect to the point of mobile internet access on phones, but that does not provide access to servers and network.

    Disable the Firewall Norton 360 and the protection doesn't seem to help.

    At a time and only once, I saw the message invalid network address.

    Logical, said the material is OK because can connect to the wifi phone.

    I don't know where to begin try andworkout why z930 can't seen to connect to the home network.

    > I'm having problems connecting to the home network and I do not understand the clues to work towards a solution.
    I want to be sure I understood your problem:

    You ve set up the wireless network at home (I assume you are using the WLan router, etc.) but you are not able to connect the Portege Z930 to your wireless home network.
    Is this correct?

    Since you are able to connect this notebook to internet hotspots (public WLan) I guess the wireless network for laptop s and WLan card driver are installed and are working correctly.

    Are you able to connect the laptop to the internet using LAN?

    In case this also not possible, you must reset your router and should go through the router options unique to ensure that each option has been set correctly.

    In addition I recommend you renew the IP address by typing this command using the console (to start the console type CMD in RUN)
    In the Console (black DOS window), you must type: + IPCONFIG / RENEW.
    This would renew the ip address that is assigned automatically the provided by the router ip address pool.

    Hello

    The Recovery Media Creator is a tool of Toshiba which requires Toshiba image files to create the recovery disk. The image files are placed on a different partition called recovery of HARD drive partition.

    If the HARD drive has been changed or deleted this partition, the recovery media creator will not be able to find image files and you will not be able to create this disc.

    So my question is: you reinstall Windows 7 at your own hand? Did you change the HARD drive in the past?
