Wireless LAN on WinXP in Satellite L40 - 12N

Hello

I recently received a Satellite L40 - 12N with Windows Vista installed.

After the replacement of Windows Vista with Windows XP Pro SP2,.
I can't get my Wireless LAN want to work more.

I installed the drivers Atheros WLAN for XP.
Driver installation has been successful,
and according to the Windows Device Manager, everything works correctly.

However, I can't detect my router wireless from 5 feet away.
I think it has to do with the WLAN switch in front of the laptop.
Is - this switch requires a special driver or software?

Or is there another solution to this problem?

Kind regards

Cree

Hello cries

As much as I know switch itself didn't need software. Enable/disable wireless network card you can use the combination of keys FN + F8 but it should also work without this key combination.

Try to reboot your router and check again please. He contributes to several times for me. ConfigFree is preinstalled on your laptop?

    I checked the Toshiba download page and your laptop model is not supported for Windows XP Home edition.
    What can you do now?
    You can find the drivers for other similar laptops and also check if you can find something online.

    It will be hard work.
    Do you really need WXP?

  • Missing HARD drive when I try to install WinXP on Satellite L40

    I have a problem when I setup Windows XP. Its a message appear that there is no HARD drive devices.

    I am using Vista now.

    Waiting for your advice.
    Thank you

    Ceco85 is right. You must install the Intel Matrix Storage Manager before you continue the installation of XP.
    The iMSM can be downloaded from the Toshiba page or from the Intel page.
    Then you will need an external USB FDD to include this driver.

    If you n t the external USB FDD drive, I recommend the creation of a new XP CD with SATA drivers using the 3rd party freeware software called nLite!
    Google for nLite details ;)

    I hope I can clarify this issue. Best regards

  • How to install WinXP on Satellite L40-139?

    Einf.
    I can't install Windows XP Home edition on my laptop.

    If i press a key to start to install for a view very short time just "Setup inspects the hardware configuration of your computer' and then nothing happened.

    Have someone some practice with it?

    I assume you are using Microsoft WXP CD installations. Am I wrong? Is the visible HARD disk when you start the process facilities?

    I found a few topics on similar problems. As in the other thread suggested that you must first install an Intel Matrix Storage Manager before you continue the installation of XP. The installation is very easy. During the installation process you must press F6 to include the Intel Matrix storage manager from an external USB FDD drive.

    After this instillation please don t HARD drive format but continue installing XP

    Hello

    It is difficult to understand what you mean by not working do not.
    Does that mean exactly?
    You are not able to connect to the internet or what?

    Usually, if the wireless network card and LAN card have been properly recognized in Device Manager, then the drivers are working properly and the problem could be related to the router configuration bad or maybe some active firewall, etc.

    First I recommend that you check the router settings. Check if the router has been configured with the right data from ISP and if all other options have been properly set.

    The laptop supports the Realtek Wlan and LAN card.
    Check if the wireless card uses the same standard WLan as the WLan router and if the right encryption has been used too.

  • Satellite L40 - the Wireless does not connect until svchost has been disabled

    Hello.

    I have a Satellite L40 without BONES, I bought and I installed a XP/SP3. I have a small problem when I connect to my wireless NET. It does not connect until I open the Task Manager and remove one of the two svchost process open with the name 'network service '.

    Someone has an idea of why this never happens and how to fix it (I can opperate thereafter, but is a little annoying to have to do each time).

    Thank you.

    Tried to reinstall the wlan drivers and utilities already? When you do so, you should check the download pages of Toshiba for the latest version of the driver.

    Is the WinXP installation you have performed, had integrated SP3 or SP2? Because I would like to know if wlan worked with SP2.

  • Satellite L40 - is it supports WPs on Netgear Wireless N Router?

    Hello

    I think you should check what card WLan using your Sat L40.
    The point is that books of L40 can support different network cards like Intel, Atheros or Realtek Wlan card wireless.

    Check Wlan card model and research Web sites for details of the hardware manufacturers.

  • Satellite C55 - C PSKWSV - not able to install Realtek Wireless LAN Driver

    Hello

    Whenever I try to install the Driver Realtek Wireless LAN 2023.17.731.2015 using Toshiba Service Station, extraction ends and permissions invites pop up, I click Yes but nothing happens. No other window does not appear, the driver does not disappear in the list of the software updates in a gas station. It's just as if nothing is happening.

    No idea why this is happening?

    I use a Toshiba Satellite C55 - C PSKWSV with an OS 64-bit of Windows 10.

    Hi my C50 - B Satellite did the same thing.

  • Satellite U940 - update Realtek Wireless LAN Driver

    I just upgraded my Satellite U940 PSU6VA - 00S 002 Windows 8 to 8.1 of Windows and am currently following the instructions of the upgrade from here. I noticed that European and Australian Toshiba sites include a 'Realtek Wireless LAN Driver' in their list of downloads driver for Windows 8.1 for the Satellite U940:
    - European page
    -[http://support.toshiba-tie.co.jp/windows81/drivers/PSU6V_Up_au.htm]

    However, I have never noticed any a Realtek wireless LAN driver on my computer, before even that I have upgraded to Windows 8.1. I've only seen in Device Manager network cards:
    -Intel Centrino Wireless-N 2200
    -Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller (which I believe is a wired LAN driver, not a LAN wireless driver).

    So my question is: do I have to download the Realtek wireless network driver or is it not suitable for my system?

    > So my question is: do I have to download the Realtek wireless network driver or is it not suitable for my system?

    Your laptop was equipped with Intel wireless network adapter and NOT card Realtek WLan and therefore the Realtek WLan driver does not need to be installed.
    You should consider a fact: there are different laptops on the market models that are equipped with different material parts. Some support the Realtek WLan card and some models were equipped with modules WLan Intel and that's why you can find some drivers (like Realtek Bluetooth Driver Package Filter) in the driver from the list of downloads that are not essential for all models.

  • Re: Satellite L40-139 - 10 error code in the Device Manager on the wireless network card

    I have a toshiba satellite L40-139 and I just instaled windows 7 64 bit on it. Since that time my atheros wireless device will not work. I tried updating the driver and windows but nothing.
    In the device manager says code 10 DEVICE can NOT START.

    Help, please!

    Thank you!

    Hello

    If you read here:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/943104

    The Code 10 error code is generated when the Device Manager has not enough information or error that spread upwards by device drivers is not recognized by Device Manager.
    Then, go to the page of the driver and update the driver. If you do not have to win 7, try the vista driver.
