WLAN stopped suddenly on Satellite Pro L40

Hello

My Satellite Pro L40 has had some problems with the wifi since the beginning, I accepted the case and restart the connection whenever it stopped.
But now, my wireless card can't detect any signal. I installed the latest version of the BIOS and the driver of the last card, but no change... It does not at all.

I bought the computer 3 months ago and I get on my nerves... If you have an idea or, better, a solution... I will be very grateful!

Kind regards.

Hello

For me, it seems very strange that a WLan card doesn't work all of a sudden.

However, the first thing you should check is the WLan status in Device Manager.
Expand the area network cards and check if the wireless card was recognized correctly.
If there is a yellow exclamation point, it means that the wireless network adapter has not been installed correctly or the software (driver) is corrupt
In most cases reinstalling WLan driver should fix this annoying problem.

But if the wireless network adapter appears correctly in the Device Manager, then you should check if you have enabled the wireless network adapter using the FN + F8 key combination and the WLan switch which should be placed somewhere on the side of the laptop.

Good luck

  • Satellite Pro L40 - how to enable the WLan using ConfigFree

    Can you help me?

    My English is bad I do not end.

    The question is:
    My computer is a Toshiba Satellite Pro L40 and I use the ConfigFree for the wireless, but it seems that the WiFi network is disabled.

    Help please!
    I want to know what's wrong

    Thank you!!

    Hello!

    Your wireless network card is recognized correctly in the Device Manager, or you may notice a yellow exclamation?
    Her check first because otherwise, you can get the WLAN to work.

    In addition, you can activate WLAN with the material on the laptop switch which must be set on and the FN + F8 key combination.
    Check it!

    After this Free Config should find your WLAN router if you are in the range of that.

    I think that the laptop supports Atheros 11 b/g wireless network card, so you will need to install the Atheros Wlan driver.

  • Satellite Pro L40 Wireless does not and wont stop correctly

    Hello
    just got a Satellite Pro L40-15 1 week ago and it's been downhill.

    The Wireless does not work (and yes the switch is activated and drivers installed). Sometimes windows recognizes no device when I boot.

    And when I stopped he said blocking down, but crashes just on this screen.

    Now, I'm an advanced user, so I've tried many things. Can anyone help?

    Thank you

    As a first step, I would recommend to use the Toshiba Recovery CD and renew the operating system.
    Then update the Vista of the State. I mean to install patches and fixes Vista all published.

  • Satellite Pro L40 - drivers need to

    Hey.

    I just installed a clean version of Windows (Vista 64-bit) on my Toshiba Satellite Pro L40 PSL4BE... But I have no drivers CD or anything.
    I can't connect to internet because my Wifi does not work, because non drivers (and for some reason that I can't connect through the LAN (does not work on other portable computers as well).) And the lack of internet, it is really difficult to find drivers.

    I downloaded the drivers from this site: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU

    And I tried to download the LAN drivers wireless from here: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/?page=downloads
    But I'm not sure which one to choose? Also, should I install the Intel drivers first? I installed them, but while restarting the computer froze and I had to force him to stop... :(

    Are there not as a driver Package, you can download, as, instead of the driver CD or something?

    I hope you can help

    ANDA H.

    Hello

    To be honest I don t understand your problem. I checked the Web from Toshiba site and there are some drivers listed and also for LAN and WLAN card. Just search for your model and Vista 64-bit. You will find a short list of necessary drivers.
    Check this box!

    In addition, you can turn on/off WLAN if you press FN + F8. Did you do that?

    Hi mate,

    may I ask what fire you´ve applications installed on your machine? I ask for the following reason:

    Several installed burning applications may interfere each other, so could not stop the drive works properly.
    Please, try the following:
    Find somewhere a linux cd or something that you can start from, and then try to start and when the disc turns and starts him CD then you know that your problem is not hardware partners, it s more a problem located somewhere in your Windows operating system.

    If the player wouldn even turn or start the inserted media then you know that the reader has some hardware malfunction and must be replaced.
    I guess you still have a warranty on your machine, if yes, then contact the nearest authorized service provider in your country and tell them your problem.
    They are able to help you and solve this problem.

  • Satellite Pro L40 wireless channel selection

    I have a Realtek 8187 b WLAN in my Satellite Pro L40.

    I have the latest drivers installed with xp pro, but can't set the channel everything but 10. How can I change the channel when I get the message that the channel range must be 10-10. This just doesn't seem right.
    Channel top 10 isn't a problem, but when I'm somewhere else, it is impossible to establish a connection, at least that channel 10 is used.

    Hello

    Have you checked the settings in the WLan card properties?
    Go to the devices-> ECS-> Wlan card Properties Manager.
    The Advanced tab should contains different settings.

    Wlan channel can also be changed using the Wlan configuration utility Intel ProSet or Atheros Client utility such as tools.

  • Satellite Pro L40-15 a (PSL4BE) BIOS update procedure

    Hi, since trying to update the BIOS from Windows using the package provided on the official page to download always translated by the + black screen problem + described [here | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=47887&tstart=0], which is the * correct * on how to update the BIOS on this laptop?

    I am no newbie: with these laptops, this is the first and only 2 has no BIOS updates, more than 100 + modernization successful in my career!

    Here, I sketch the history with the my two Satellite Pro L40 - 15A (PSL4BE).

    Cell phone 1:
    a. BIOS 1.60
    b. upgrading to Windows * XP * to 5.50 _For Windows XP_
    c. programme stop the PC from the start, with a progress remains empty bar!
    d. first boot in the BIOS showing version 5.50 (!), but then: dead (black screen)
    e. taken for an ASP.
    f. after 15 minutes and for as little as 35 it has been resolved, and BIOS updated to 2.00
    g. explanation of the ASP guy was it was my fault, because since the laptop is with Vista installed, I couldn't do a upgrade the BIOS of XP!
    h. sold the laptop with BIOS 2.00

    Laptop 2:
    a. BIOS 1.60
    b. upgrade of Windows * Vista * to 2,00 _For Windows Vista_
    c. programme stop the PC from the start, with a progress remains empty bar!
    d. but the laptop still and always boots with BIOS 1.60.
    e. upgrade to Windows * XP * at 5.50 _For Windows XP_ (I know, I was really looking for troubles, uh?)
    f. first boot in the BIOS showing version 5.50 (!), but then: dead (black screen) (as 1 laptop)
    g. tried every combination of secret keys, CD, USB, floppy drive, but nothing could do the trick to force a BIOS loading, as the ASP was indeed able to do with my laptop 1!
    h. read 'notuagain' contribution to the forum thread [here | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=47887&tstart=0], and it worked.
    i. but now, the laptop still has BIOS 1.60

    Here you can find the traditional versions of updated BIOS for this laptop model:

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro L40 (PSL43E-00P00VN5). What standard to use my computer - 802.11 * b * or 802.11 * g *? If the two then how to choose which (manually or automatically)? I would like to buy AirPort Express (Apple) and if my computer uses b-specifications then speed is maximum. 11 Mbps, and if g-specifications speed then is 54 Mbps.

    If I understand all this mysterious correct technical text...

    Hello

    As far as I know that the Satellite Pro L40 PSL43E was equipped with the Atheros AR5007EG Wireless Network card and according to the product Atheros website this adapter supports Wlan 802 standards. 11B and 802.11 g.
    http://www.Atheros.com/pt/AR5007EG.htm

    Usually, you can change the WLan standard in the properties of card Wlan (Device Manager-> properties-> Advanced tab card Wlan)

  • Satellite Pro L40 - 14R and WiFi connection

    Hello!

    I have the model Satellite Pro L40 - 14R with Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2. I just installed a driver for the card wireless (Wireless Network Driver Realtek). After that, I can see device correctly installed:

    Realtek RTL8187B Wireless 802.11 g 54Mbps USB 2.0 Network adapt #2

    In the Device Manager under control panel configuration/system in my WinXP.

    I have also installed "Atheros Client Utility".

    But I don't see any net wireless in my range. No net can be detected! The old model of laptop - see multiple numbers of nets wireless in the healthy zone of mind. What is going on?

    [email protected]

    Hello

    First of all, you can use the Atheros Client Utility with the Atheros WLan card.
    You have a Realtek WLan card and this is why I recommend using WLan configuration option clean Windows to configure the WiFi network.

    But let's go to the essentials
    Have you checked if the WiFi network has been correctly activated? I mean you must activate the Wlan switch on the side of books and you must use the FN + F8 key combination!

    First, please check these two functions.
