WiFi connection stops 1-2 min - Satellite P300D - 21K

Hello

I have a laptop satellite. P300D - 21K.

My wireless connection seems to have been interrupted every 1-2 minutes. I can say this, because when I watch BBC iplayer or youtube streaming, you can see the buffering stops and the audio/video will stop then. I have to launch launch myslef by pressing pause then play to get it again.

I don't have this problem when I use my cable system, so according to me, this is a problem with the service my laptop wireless.

Any advice?

Thank you

Ross.

Hello

A lot of people here in the forum recommend updating the driver WLan and the BIOS.
I think that you should do this too

Check if your BIOS is up to date and put updated also the driver WLan.

  • Satellite P300D - 21K: Windows 7 64 bit upgrade level & RAM Upgrade advice

    Hi, I need some advice on upgrading my laptop. My laptop is a:

    Toshiba Satellite P300D - 21K
    Model No.: PSPD0E - 00H003EN

    I think of upgrading to windows 64-bit (lucky students can do that for A £30!) to help speed up my laptop. I use some CAD applications, so 64-bit should help with the speed of these applications. Question:

    (1) are there reasons that someone could advise me not upgrading to 64-bit with my laptop?
    (2) I need to update my RAM at least 4 GB for 64-bit. I currently have 3 gig, so I guess I need to replace my stick of 1 GB with a 2 gig stick? Or did I put a 4 GB stick with my existing 2 gig stick?
    (3) going to upgrade my ram and operating system void my warranty?

    1 in my opinion there is no reason why you should not install version 64-bit OS. Just be sure that all 64-bit drivers are available on the Toshiba support page.
    I imagine at the moment for Win7 drivers are still not available and you have to wait.

    2. According to the specifications of the laptop Satellite P300D - 21 K can handle with 4 GB 2x2gb RAM max is the maximum that you can do about it.
    2 GB compatible RAM has PA3513U-1M2G part number.

    3 No.

  • Satellite P300D - 21K - problem Hibernate / sleep

    Toshiba Satellite P300D - 21K was pre installed with Vista Home edition, but no more.

    It has Win 7 64 bit blank installed RAM was fun to the maximum and there is no additional software that was installed on the PC yet just the OS package is.

    I put the PC in 'sleep' by FN + F3 or simply close the lid and it works very well. When I take by opening the cover, he wakes up in fine. I begin to exploit where I left who works until it completely freezes and the only way to solve the problem is in the power and turn it on again and restart Windows. This always happens when I use the sleep function.

    When I got this PC runs smoothly so this seems to be a software problem.

    Copied files have been archived.

    > When I passed this PC runs smoothly, so this seems like a software problem.
    Hmm I do not know if its software issue related m
    It could be linked to the new RAM installed since data will be written into the RAM going in standby mode.

    Recommended to remove the RAM module installed to test the laptop mode and sleep.

    Hello

    Before you begin to uninstall or reinstall some Toshiba firmware, I would like to know what Satellite L550D-xxx you exactly.

    The point is that different L550D models were equipped with a different wireless network cards.
    Not quite sure if your have a Realtek Wlan card. It looks like a Realtek LAN card.

    However, you must first check if the wireless network card is recognized correctly in the Device Manager.
    In the Manager of peripheral devices, network cards, you should see LAN and WLan card.
    In the case where the card WLan display correctly (no yellow exclamation) WLan driver installation is not necessary.

    In this case, you should go to the next step: check if you can enable / disable the wireless network adapter using the FN + F8 key combination.
    Where this is not possible, check if other keys FN function.
    Where other keys FN don t work, you must reinstall the software mentioned (Toshiba Value Package added, Flash cards).

    This can be done in the control panel-> programs & features
    After that the two software can be removed, clean the system using CCLeaner.
    Now, you can check the EU Toshiba driver page http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp to download the software deleted.
    Installation is easy; Unzip the package and run the installation exe file

    Then you should be able to use the FN + F8
    After that the WiFi network has been successfully activated, go to the network & sharing Center-> manage wireless (left) and click Add to configure the new wireless network

  • A WiFi just stopped working on my Satellite A300

    I bought a Toshiba Satellite A300 (Vista) and it all started very well. The second day my wifi only stop while I was online... just after does not do anything and now I can't turn it on. The touch wifi and FN + F8 is running. Configfree even can see if the wifi button is on or off, but I do not see the wireless connections (theres allows to be 5 - 6 of them where I live... so theres nothing wrong with the router).

    I can add that there's no conflict in the wireless card and all drivers are up to date. Is this a hardware problem? What are my opptions here?

    It could just be a software problem. Have you recently installed a firewall or Internet Security program? Try to disable them.

    If this does not help, run recovery to reinstall Windows to its factory condition, and then try again. If it still does not work, then it might be a problem with the hardware. First, try a BIOS update and the update of the Wifi pilot before you send the laptop to an ASP for repairs.

  • Satellite P300D - 21K - Sound completely stopped working

    Hello

    I used my P300D - 21K with no problems for a few weeks now. But today the sound completely stopped working on the laptop. It seems that there is laptop thinks it is running through it, like the sound level meter, the exit bar is pulsated up and down that I play a sound track.

    Any ideas?

    I got a message saying "Error in creation of the sound buffer winamp 8878006 error code" but it was after I had lost the sound.

    Have you checked the Device Manager? The sound card is correctly recognized?

    Maybe you should try to update the audio driver. You can find it on the Toshiba site:

    Did you check if the sound is muted only? You can do this with FN + ESC.
    Check it!

  • Some drivers Win XP for Satellite P300D - 21K necessary PSPD0E

    Hello

    I'm trying to put Windows XP on my Satellite P300D - 21 k PSPD0E. I've successfully installed and download all the drivers from the Toshiba site... but I still have an IEEE 1394 controller, Ethernet controller and PCI device no drivers in Device Manager.

    I think that these usually come with the chipset drivers?
    They are not on the site of anywhere... and assume that they are not part of the update of the BIOS (I didn't run it because I have a double partition).

    Any ideas for help would be muchly appreciated.

    Owen

    > However I still have IEEE 1394 controller, Ethernet controller and PCI device no drivers in Device Manager.

    Ethernet controller seems to be LAN or WLan card and would recommend the LAN and WLan driver installation.

    The wireless network card seems to be Atheros.
    Here you can find the WLan drivers:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/?page=downloads

    LAN chip is Marvell and the driver is available on the European driver Toshiba page. If you have not installed this in the past, then do it

    Do not know what could be the another PCI device, but you can find it easily by using this work around:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/Ann.jspa?annID=78

    The IEEE 1394 controller seems to be firewire port.
    Since the laptop seems to be equipped with a graphics chip ATI chipset driver is the graphics driver.
    The graphics card driver folder (once it has been unpacked) contains the SBDrv folder.
    You can try to install the driver through the Device Manager pointing to the files in the SBDrv folder

    Good luck

  • Satellite P300D - 21K Touchpad scroll not working not not on Windows 7

    Hello

    I'm new to this forum so I don't know if this is the right place to post this.

    Anyway, recently I installed Windows 7 32 bit on my Toshiba laptop, everything went well and I installed all the drivers I needed in order to make the webcam and the function of the keys at work etc.

    But I have a problem, my touchpad scrolling is not working after installation, now I can't scroll up and down, left and right with my touchpad. I tried searching for all the drivers who can help solve this problem, but I havn't been able to find everything about the touchpad.

    Anyone would be able to help me with my problem? Would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

    Hi SA90,.

    Normally, you need to install the driver for the touchpad for use of the virtual scrolling function. I checked the site Web of Toshiba and I could find a touchpad driver for Windows Vista 32 bit. Normally the Vista drivers are also work on Windows 7.

  • How to fix damaged BIOS on Satellite P300D?

    Help!

    I have a Toshiba Satellite P300D - 21K laptop model PSPD0E. I made the mistake of multi-tasking and tried flashing the BIOS without giving to concentrate fully on the task. I tried the Toshiba site and put all the right letters and numbers in the selector for the BIOS flash. However I think that now I flashed the wrong BIOS.

    Everything worked fine until I flashed, but now all I get is the black screen and a bit of fan noise. I downloaded the crisis of Phoenix BIOS and disk loaded on my USB but I can't get the stick to respond I took knowledge of several keystrokes to use, but none of them does the trick I've tried Fn + f, g + Fn, Fn + b, Fn + esc, win + f, win + g, win + b, win + esc nothing works.

    Can anyone help?

    Problem is that the BIOS chip is damaged now and I'm afraid, you need professional help with this m.
    Updating the BIOS is always tricky and can go in the wrong direction.

    Maybe you should contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.
