What do I need to connect to a Satellite Pro 4600 to a WiFi network?

I come on this old laptop with W2000 and may not know how to connect to the internet other than through LAN cable. I guess I need to update the laptop with new software, or is it not possible at all?

I think it's old laptop doesn t have wireless network inside the card.
Can you please check this in the Device Manager?

If there is no wireless network card you need another external (PCMCIA WLAN card).

  • Problems connecting to a Satellite Pro 4600 for network wireless home

    Hello
    My computer has a processor Athlon 64 x 2 4200 + and 2 GB of RAM, with XP2 Pro. I have a Linksys WRT54GS broadband router and connected with Virgin Media.

    My daughter gave me an old laptop a Satellite Pro 4600 with a 747 MHz Celeron processor, 384 MB of RAM and XP2 Pro has an Intel Pro/100 VE Network adapter. I set up a Linksys Wireless - G Notebook Adapter with SRX (model No. WPC45GX), so that I could use around the House. However when I try to connect to the home network, although he "finds" a list of networks, I am unable to connect and get an error message - "Windows cannot connect to the selected network (my home network). The network can be is no longer in range. Please refresh the list of available
    networks and try again. »

    I tried to connect with laptop computer in the same room as the router, but get the same message. In the Manager of peripheral devices, network cards, the two are shown and both work properly, but in the taskbar there is a red cross shown on the two icons, they say that a network cable is unplugged, but I don't have a cable network.
    The other tells me that the wireless is not connected.

    I presume that the adapter works as it can 'see' wireless networks, I used Lynksys support to verify that all router and adapter settings are correct.
    My wife has a new laptop and is able to connect to the home network with no problems.

    Please can someone offer advice or assistance.

    for some reason, you need to turn off your wired connection (cable) and use the client of the PCMCIA wireless network card. Maybe just the problem that your system can not separate the two network connections and gets an error it s. You should also visit the site Web of Linksys and download the latest driver and the customer for the card, so you can make sure that the software is up to date.

    Another good idea would be to visit www.microsoft.com and the support center for any 'knowledge base documents' which could probably solve the problem.
    As your machine is really old and no one is using PCMCIA cards more, you may wait a long time for an answer in this forum. Maybe you should check the site from linksys for a support section. Maybe they could help you...

  • Satellite Pro 4600: when I use WEP, I can't do any connection more

    Hey everybody,

    When I connect my Tohsiba Satellite Pro 4600 via map of build-in network without WEP wireless to an AP, there is no problem, connection is establische and everything works fine.
    When I use WEP, I can't do any connection more.
    Is there a solution to use encryption WEP 128 bit on a portable Thosiba Pro 4600 with build-in WIFI network.

    Thanks in advance
    Pokettuk

    What card WLan do you use?

    As far as I know the laptop must be equipped with LAN Wireless / WiFi Standard: 802. 11B ORiNOCO Mini PCI card.
    This card supports WEP 64 or 128 RC4 security.

    Everything looks like you WLan card doesn't support the same standards of security as your WLan router. You must understand that this WLan card is an oldie about 7 years.

    I think that the best solution is to use external USB WLAN which support the latest encryption standards

  • Satellite Pro 4600: beep when the headphones are connected

    Greetings to everyone.

    I feel a strange audio problem with my Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 headphone output port. Whenever headphones are used, bursts of low beep occur regularly every 3 seconds or so superimposed on what playing right now. Each burst lasts about one second and consists of about 8 fast beeps. The beeps occur after Windows starts and end once the system off. I thought that it was a driver issue, but I use the latest driver for my card, downloaded from the site Web of Toshiba (package name: s5105sndx.exe).

    Can anyone help?

    Thank you for your attention.

    This problem doesn't appear if the headphone is plugged or also with the speakers if the headphones are disconnected?

    If this happens only if the headphone is connected if there is something wrong with the headphone jack.

  • Satellite Pro 4600 - what is the maximum size of HARD drive?

    My age Satellite Pro 4600 has a 20 GB HARD drive. These are now very difficult to obtain, does anyone know if superior capacy HDDs can be used and, if so, what is the maximum size of the HARD drive.

    (Despite his age that I always use the Satellite Pro for some jobs).

    Hello John

    Satellite Pro 4600 is old enough for laptop and it is not easy to find the exact info. The fact is that this laptop comes with 10 and 20 GB hard drives.
    My opinion is that you can use 30 or even 40 GB HDD. I think that 30 GB new HARD drive should be enough for your some jobs.

    What do you think?

    Can someone help me please? Thank you

    Hello

    As Akuma suggested you should ensure that you are using the latest driver WLAN on Toshiba website for your laptop.
    I founded your model on Toshiba Canada website: http://support.toshiba.ca

    Your network configuration is not kwon to me, but you should check the TCP/IP settings. If you have DHCP do you get an IP address from the router? You can check this in the start menu > run > cmd > ipconfig/all

    If you use a 3rd party firewall, you must disable.

  • What is a current market value of the Satellite Pro L100-125

    Hello

    I currently have a laptop Satellite Pro L100-125, that I've had for a few years now.
    It's getting on abit I know, but until recently, he did everything I needed it to do. Unfortunately, I had a small accident and the laptop has been damaged.

    Asking for a new home insurance since I'm not able to buy a new laptop for now (being student humble and everything!). The insurance company asked about the damage and the value of the computer.

    The damage, I know, this is the current value of the computer that I'm not sure of!
    Its probably not much, but if I get it wrong then a number of things can happen!
    If I declare that the value is higher than it actually is, they say it's fixable or say that it is a fraudulent application!

    If I declare the value too low, then we'll write him offshore but I get a very good replacement (I know it's the lesser of two evils and looks like I'm just try on, but this claim will push my premiums until next year regardless, so I might as well get the best that I can possibly get out of it!).

    Anyone happen to know the current market value of a laptop with the specifications below?

    The computer is a Satellite Pro L100-125
    Intel Centrino Duo T2400 1.83 GHz
    2 GB of RAM (512 MB originally)
    60 GB HARD drive

    Also, just so that I know what to expect, no one knows the approximate cost of replacing the screen and the housing on this particular laptop?

    Any help at all would be much appreciated.

    Hello

    Satellite L100 series is already abandoned and it seems no more on the market
    The point is that you could buy a new a lot harder for laptop with the best hardware specifications for about 400-500 euros.
    I don't have no idea how the fix would cost, but if the screen or motherboard would have died then the repair process could be a costly affair because the display and motherboards are more expensive laptop parts
