Tecra M5 PTM51E - change of 05Q0423C WLAN card

I want to change the card WIFI (Intel 3945ABG) but can't find it.
is there a normal of MPCI card and where can I find it?
is there any kind of exploded drawing?

WLAN on Tecra M5 card Exchange is quite complicated and it should be done by authorized personnel only.
Card is placed near the touchpad and to have full access to her entire Notepad must be dismantled.
Please think twice before you make decision to do it alone. Small error can train with broken parts or plastic media.

  • Tecra M4: How to replace the WLAN card

    Hello
    I have a Tecra M4 laptop and want to upgrade my wireless card, is this possible without opening the whole case?
    Most of the NB I know have these cards below the keyboard, or behind a clean cover accessible from the rear. Tried both, found nothing.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello Florian

    I fear that you will not be able to Exchange only WLAN card. The WIFI card on this laptop model is placed on site so stupid and laptop must be disassembled. Please be careful if you want to do this alone.

    To be honest you shouldn't do this without maintenance manuals. One small mistake and you can damage the sensitive plastic components inside your laptop.

    Furthermore, this model Tecra a pretty good and quick WLAN card. G standard, if I remember well. I have the same card on my Tecra and data transfer is OK.

    What WLAN card you want to use now?

    So if you want to install the Wlan card and attach it to the antenna, you must connect the cables.
    A white cable normally goes to the HAND and a black to the auxiliary voltage

  • Tecra M9 - where the WLan card

    Hi all.

    Can someone tell me where the wireless card is located on the M9 series please.

    I expected under the machine with a quick access panel, but apparently not.

    Where is it and is it easy to get it please.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I guess the minPCI wireless network card is hidden somewhere under the keyboard.
    You need to remove the keyboard first, if you want to get access to the Wlan card.

    But I wouldn't remove the keyboard, because in the worst case, you could lose the warranty!

  • Satellite 2430-301: cannot use 2200BG WLan card because the switch is off

    Hello

    I have a Satellite 2430-301, which was not delivered with WLAN functionality. But I discovered, that there is a MiniPCI slot in the laptop.

    So, I bought an Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200BG Minipci card. After that I joined the card in the laptop, it has been detected by windows as a new network device. I downloaded and installed the drivers of Windows XP (because I have Windows XP installed on the laptop) of Intel (9.0.4.17) home page. The installation worked perfectly.

    Now I tried to connect to a wireless network, but the software Intel says that the card is on 'off '. So I changed the menu drop-down on "on", which resulted in a mistake in German: "Die Intel (r) PRO/Wireless-Netzwerkverbindung ist noch deaktiviert.» Aktivieren Sie sie über your Hardware-switch. "(which means something like 'network Intel (r) PRO/Wireless connection is turned off. Turn it on with the hardware switch. »).

    Although the switch was already in position "on", I spent several times - nothing important happened. The led next to the switch will not illuminate in both positions.

    Are there problems of incompatibility between "Toshiba Satellite 2430 301" and "Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG?

    I did something wrong?

    Is - this darn broken hardware switch?

    Any suggestions?

    I would be really happy if someone could help me :)

    Thanks in advance,
    Thuriel

    Hello

    The hardware switch led should light up if the switch is on.
    In addition if you want to use the WiFi network you must go to the WLan with FN + F8 option.
    In addition, you must check the WLan card properties in Device Manager. Here, you enter the Advanced tab. In the field of property choose radio power option and select the value to on.

  • Intel WLAN card cannot connect to Wanadoo livebox

    I have a built-in Intel Pro/Wireless BG network connection card, but I can not connect properly and reliably to the Wanadoo livebox. Wanadoo assistance team advised me to make a few changes on my wireless card, but I couldn't because he's informed changes were not available: when I right click on my map and then click on properties, I can't find the network connection tab that would allow me to set it up, according to support Wanadoo, while my phone was able to connect to the Livebox.

    Has anyone ever encountered this problem? Anyone know how to fix this? Do I have to update my map?

    Thank you.

    Jean-Christophe

    First go to Device Manager and check if the wireless card was recognized correctly.
    Then, go to the Green START button and select settings - network connections
    Then select Wireless right click - Properties.

    In the Middle you will find wireless networks tab.
    Here, it should be possible to configure Wlan networks

  • Tecra M5 PTM51E: Toshiba Power Saver for VISTA?

    I'm running Vista RC2 (Build 5744) on a Tecra M5 (UK PTM 51(f)) and it is amazingingly stable after update
    the standard video driver. Update nvidia driver is great and works very good systems (!)

    A number of vista drivers is available at the United States for Tecra M5 but not for the PTM51E.

    Could adversely affect install any drivers PTM51E UK? I have probably 3 facilities of exceptional pilot - CO-PROCESSOR BIOMETRIC and 2 unknown devices x (1 TPM chip and 1 fingerprint).

    Was wondering if anyone had updates similar pilot in circulation and if you had had a driver or tried the American versions.

    I also noticed that some of the United States vista drivers are a bit outdated compared to the UK drivers (ie. driver network card intel etc.) UK standard drivers works fine.

    Touchpad support is great, but please PLEASE bring back the TOSHIBA POWERMANAGEMENT SOFTWARE under VISTA. This software from toshiba is desperately needed here.

    Best.

    Hello

    As you know that Windows Vista is not yet on the market, and in a few weeks we'll know more on Vista and Vista support. Unfortunately, we have to wait until the end of January. Here in Europe it is the official term for the launch of Vista.

    I don t know if you will have success with American pilots, probably yes, but maybe is better to wait and see what drivers are available for your model Tecra M5 (PTM51E).

  • Is satellite C660 - 11 H - possible to change the wireless network card?

    Hi guys,.

    I'm looking to change the card Wifi on my C660 11 H since a Realtek 8188CE for a Realtek RTL8187B, for reasons that cannot be discussed on this forum. I was just wondering if the new card will be compatible, if I understand his also a Bluetooth card? I know that in the past, this is a case of grooving of the card and connecting the antennas.

    Finally, can anyone provide me the model number of the integrated Realtek WAN adapter? In system information, he simply says Wan Adapter PCI-E FE?

    Thanks for your help / Ryan

    Hey,.

    To be honest, it would be interesting to know why you want to change the WLAN card. You are not satisfied, or what are the reasons for this?

    In the forum, there are some discussions on the WLAN on Satellite C660 questions but this could be solved with latest Realtek driver and turning off energy saving as you can in large number of discussions:

  • Satellite P10-304: replacing a WLan card - can I the same WiFi chip?

    Hi all

    got a satellite P10-304 of a companion here.
    He said the free thread never worked on it and hes had it years and someone else has already looked at and changed the TNA wireless card.

    Basically, she acts only as the wireless switch does not work and it remains permanently off the coast, although the drivers install correctly and map also shows ok. Simply disconnected.

    Now, I thought, okay, I'll take a look because I'm pretty good on the old hardware. Has taken apart and this you know, switch has been bent and not up. I handed the place, checked the switch and stop positions with a multimeter to check the switch worked and he was doing his job perfectly.

    Now it still doesn't.
    I guess it is now due to the fact that as I said, the map has been changed since its origin to a processor intel pro jobby.

    My question is, I'm right, do I just need to get the same card that was originally in it. I assumed that when the switch is set correct return, that I solved it.

    Hello

    The WiFi card must be activated bu switching the switch TO the position (the LED must illuminate) and in addition, you should choose the WLan antenna using the FN + F8 key combination.

    Please check this!

    Notes; go to Device Manager-> properties-> Advanced tab Wlan card
    There you can check if the WiFi is enabled as well.

  • Satellite L100 - update Intel 3945ABG to 4965 AGN WLAN card?

    I would like to know if in a Satellite L100 is possible to change the 4965AGN wireless card for a 3945ABG or there may be problems or incompatibilities with the motherboard chipset which is a GM GM i945.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    Why you want to upgrade the WLAN card?

    To use the draft N standard, I must say that you need 3 antennas. If you must check first if your laptop is equipped with 3 antennas already or not. Otherwise it of not possible to use the draft N standard.

  • Tecra M9: 54mps transfer rate using WLan N standard

    Hi guys of

    I took possestion proud of my new Tecra M9 two days ago and have obviously been downgraded to Windows XP.

    The problem I have I bought a wireless router cable Buffalo WZR2 - G300N Nfiniti which has the new draft N Wireless feature to compliment the same feature on my new Tecra.

    Now, I have configured the router correctly by setting the wireless settings to allow protocols (BGN) so that other laptops from home receive a signal and I tried to use the standard Intel wireless drivers and drivers of buffalo on my Tecra wireless network card, but I always get only a maximum transfer rate of 54mps as apposed to the 300mps claimed to be honest.

    I never expect that speed but I expect more than the speed of a standard card.

    Any guys ideas and im starting to pull my hair out here that I love from the laptop the router lol.
    I look forward to your responses,

    Best wishes to you all

    DesktopGeek

    Hello

    You use an Intel Wlan card? If yes then you must update the Intel driver.
    See the Intel page for this.

    Second, you should check the settings of your router if the standard 802.11 N has been chosen.

    This is a useful page for Intel that describes the performance of 802.11 N standards.
    http://www.Intel.com/performance/mobile/wireless/index.htm
    You shouldn't too t wait. Theoretically, there should be an improvement of 5 x but I n t think you might be able to use the full 300Mbps.

    You should also try different WLan channels and use the additional Intel Proset WLan utility to configure the WiFi network.

    By the way; Don't forget to choose the standard 802.11 N Wlan card properties!

    Good bye

  • Satellite A100-847 - replacing a WLan card

    Hello

    I have Toshiba Satellite A100-847. I would change as WIFI card for new with "n" standard.
    I found some tutorials how to proceed, but it was for Toshiba A105, very similar to my only.

    I opened the bottom cover where is memory and modem, but I couldn't see all the PCI ports.
    Is it possible to do?
    Does work through mini-PCI or is integrated on the motherboard?

    Hello

    The A100 PSAA9E supports a minPCI WLan card that supports the IEEE 802 standard. 11a / g WLan standards.
    I m not 100% sure if it would be possible to upgrade the WiFi network with a WLan card 802.11 minPCI n because the two antenna cables.
    You should first clarify if the antenna is compatible with the 802.11 standard new * WLan N standard *.

    The minPCI wireless network card must be hidden under the keyboard. So you'd have to remove the keyboard first to get access to the wireless network card.
    The wireless network card is also connected to two antenna cables. The cables must be removed carefully using a pair of tweezers. Then spread plugs securing the wireless LAN card until the card appears.

    Usually it of not difficult to replace this WLan card but if you have no experience I wouldn t recommend doing this.
    This replacement must be done by a qualified technician!
    In addition you guarantee the validity could be cancelled after these updates.
