  • OfficeJet Pro 8710: Impossible to establish the wireless connection between my laptop and OfficeJet Pro 8710

    I'm tryng to connect wirelessly between my laptop and printer but I am unable to do so.

    My laptop finds the printer and when I go to add the device I invite me to "Enter the WPS PIN code for your printer". So, I printed out the Configuration Page of the network and it gives me the "wi - fi direct password", which I suppose is the password that is required to establish that it connection (I may be wrong in my explanation). However, when I type the password on my laptop it does not establish the connection. I said "try to add the printer again, or check with the manufacturer for addiitonal installation instructions.

    Any insght and assistance is greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    You should searh for your wifi network at home and connect your printer and the laptop to the network. Direct WiFi option is really only for configurations that do not have a modem/router.

    You may need to disable the option Wireless directly on your printer to help the wireless configuration.

  • the speaker in the Device Manager icon is gone. I do not know how?

    Hello.. Two days ago, I tried to connect my laptop to the Tv and the sound was not coming out of the TV, but after solving the problem, I lost the sound from the laptop.  In the playlist, there were three icons (digital output, output realtek and there was an icon more important after choosing the digital).  I tried to search in the control panel and the researcher of the computer laptop but found nothing. The micro meter works well but no "speaker" icon. Can you help me please? Thank you.

    These are the two options I have in the audio controllers.  I can't find the account that I used to have.

  • Missing, probably deleted, the wireless network icon

    Okay, I know I'm stupid. But I think a long time I could have deleted the wireless network icon. I have a desktop computer and I am connected to my modem with my ethernet cable. However, I just got a Roku Netflix player and need to have a wireless network. My modem has a wireless function, but I need this thing to wireless network icon who put in place.

    I checked the forums and they tell everyone to go to Device Manager and uninstall something, then restart your computer.  When I go there my options for uninstall are Intel Pro/100 VE Network Connection and network controller that has a yellow circle with and exclamation mark inside. I'm pretty sure is my wireless card, I had installed but no longer uses.

    So, how can I uninstall? Or is this not what I need to do?

  • Inspiron N5110 loses the wireless connection

    My Inspiron N5110 loses the wireless connection frequently. We have many other devices in the House - laptops, iPhones, etc. - who continue to operate perfectly through the router even when I lose my connection. The store usually brings me to reset the router, even if, as I have indicated, the router works properly. Any thoughts?  Thank you!

    The Intel Centrino Wireless - N 1030 adapter works ONLY on 2.4 GHz

    How to connect to your wireless router I use these settings to the recommended wireless router I use channel 11. I have a new SSID to connect easier.

  • Re: Satellite L670 loses the wireless connection

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L670 - 1 H 1, a new laptop that runs Windows 7, with all the drivers and software uptodate, including the wireless card.

    I have a BT Home Hub 3 with an Edimax EW 7416APN v2 300 m range extender to help boost the signal in the kitchen area.

    The laptop works fine when I stay in the room where the reception centre. If I move in the kitchen the laptop will usually lose the wireless connection after a few minutes and I cannot get it back unless I turn the LAPTOP works and return to the Home Hub.

    I see no obvious reason to this problem. Two other laptop computers used in the home, more a smartphone stay connected with full signal in every corner of the House, at any time.

    I have to use the range extender, but is it possible that the laptop Toshiba just don't hear well with it?

    Any advice would be welcome.

    Thank you
    Canton

    Hello Canton

    As you know quality of connection WLAN depends on different factors is not easy to say why you have this problem, WLAN. I use Toshiba laptops for a long time now and I didn't notice in the past some serious question of WLAN.
    For example I'm 4 router with standard g and have very good signal even in the cellar too or out in the back yard.

    If possible, try to test the WLAN connection elsewhere. Maybe your friends have WLAN routers so you can test it.

    You have a new router or old?
    What WLAN standard do you use (b/g/n)?

  • Satellite L505-13F - impossible to activate the wireless connection

    Hello, I have connectivity problems with my Satellite L505-13F.

    I can't turn on the wireless connection. I press Fn + F8 and nothing happens. The indicator at the bottom of the laptom turns on.

    I though this would be a problem with the drivers. I downloaded realtek wlan driver here [http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/?page=downloads], but it has not installed correctly. Then I used the toshiba software installer, but yet again, nothing has changed. I have Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit.

    Device management, I have seen that I installed a wifi driver. (Realtek RTL8191SE Wirelless Lan...) So, what the problem is?

    Any suggestions?

    Hey,.

    Something happens if you press other keys FN or FN + F8 doesn't work only? Normally with this key combination you can enable/disable wireless network card.

    In addition, it would be interesting to know what happens if you are looking for WLAN networks. You see your WLAN router?

    If all the keys FN n t work, reinstall the package of added value and utility to Support Flash Cards. Otherwise, it could be another problem and you should reinstall the driver again and make sure the firewall isn't blocking the connection.

    See you soon

  • all-in-one 7510 loses the wireless connection

    We just bought a HP Photosmart 7510. She created fine with a wireless connection to our office for Vista 64-bit. After awhile, he loses the wireless connection. If I close the printer then turn on again, it resets the connection and works very well. I read that it can lose connection if it goes into sleep mode, and it seems that is what is happening. My question is, is there a way to keep the impression of loss of connection or enter the mode 'sleep'? Or do we have to put the printer only whenever we wanted to print, copy or scan? If so, the printer is adjustable to disable instead of switch mode 'sleep'?

    Already set to 'off '. I found this thread http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-Networking-and-Wireless/7510-photosmart-printer-energy-mode/m-p/1230681/highlight/true#M33814 I tried this and so far it works and has not lost its connection.
