0A33944 Port replicator for Ideapad S206

I have recently bought a S206 ideapad computer fitted with Windows 8 and am pretty happy with it.
I want to use a port replicator to provide quick access for mouse, keyboard and monitor. Is Lenova item 0A33944 suitable? In particular it seems to fit my requirements but web information only states it works with Windows 7.

Hi speed USB via an Advanced Port Replicator for a Tecra 9100?

I have the same issue with a Tecra 9100 and upgrading it to hi speed USB as an earlier post where the suggested solution was to use a PCMCIA card.
(see link: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=24103)
I had an idea but i don't know if it will work and need some advice?????
Can you buy an Advanced Port Replicator that has Hi Speed USB 2.0 ports on it (like the APR II PA3082U which works with the Tecra 9100) instead of the PCMCIA card.
If the Port Replicator docks into the motherboard will it give you Hi Speed USB 2.0 or is the Tecra 9100 constrained to USB 1.1 via the hardware within the laptop itself and the port replicator won't help?
Also if I go down the Port Replicator route do i need any drivers for the Hi speed ports of the Port Replicator to work on the Tecra 9100?
Or to ask the question another way - what does the PCMIA USB 2.0 card have in it that the Advanced Port Replicator with hi speeed USB doesn't have?
Many thanks in advance

Hi there,
the Tecra 9100 has NO usb 2.0 and thats a fact. Since the port replicator has these USB 2.0 ports does not mean that your machine, when docked to the Portrep, is able to handle USB 2.0 devices. The portrep is just like an usb-hub and behaves like. So if your machine doesnt have it then thats it.
And the explanation to the PCMCIA/Cardbus solution:
The pcmcia card has USB 2.0 Chipset, thats the reason why it IS a USB 2.0 device (roothub).
I hope that was clear for you :)
Just purchase that card and you will have USB 2.0

Port replicator for W530

I can buy a 42W4631 replicator, but I am not 100% sure if it will fit a W530. When I search the Lenovo site i see it will fit a W500. I DO NOT read a "W500-SERIES", so I'm afraid it won't fit ??? Can anyone help me please ? Thanks !
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Sorry, but I have one more question.
Are you SURE the 4337 will fit ????

Port Replicator Series 3 fan?

Hi all, I am considering buying a port replicator for my t420, but I also want to have an external fan blowing on my thinkpad when I play games, for instance. I'm wondering if the port replicator series 3 has an internal fan built into it, and if not, would an external fan below the port replicator be of any use in cooling the laptop? Thanks!

buntwoz,
I'm not aware that we really see any adverse heat issues with a laptop on a dock. In some cases, people may dock and use and external display and driving 2 or more external displays could work the GPU(s) harder and lead to some increased system temp, but I don't think it is an issue for most people.

Lenovo USB 2.0 Port Replicator Freezes Issues and Problems

Okay, I have THREE of these port replicators in my office, and ALL THREE have the exact same problem on various laptops(X1, T420, Edge 13) with various kayboard/mice. I've been through all stages of the port replicator drivers on the various systems, and the issue is always there. All laptop drivers are updated.
Here is the issue: working away, and then bam, mouse and keyboard don't work. I'm working in a external monitor only display setup. I go to the keyboard/touchpad on the laptop and they don't work...however ctrl+alt+delete works on the laptop keyboard(not the regular one). Then the touchpad works...but I can't click on any of the settings EXCEPT sleep. When I press a button to wake it up, everything works fine. Basic external keyboards/mice, no need for different drivers.
The other thing that fixes everything is unplugging the USB connection from the port replicator and plugging it back in to the laptop(or unplugging the power to the port replicator).
The weird thing is that I took the keyboard and mouse and they are plugged into the laptop itself, NOT the dock, and I still get the same issue with responsiveness. This happens on ALL the docks, so it's not a keyboard/mouse driver thing.
The one thing that's occuring to me is that maybe it's a weird display issue? I haven't tried actually using the external or laptop keyboard to run commands while it's frozen...and I also haven't tried unplugging things from the port replicator one by one (such as unplugging the display cable from the port replicator, then the printer, then the ethernet). I'll keep you updated if I get any further. It's been like this for months, and my users are just doing the workarounds. one thing is for sure...
I'M NEVER GOING TO SUBSTITUE THIS PORT REPLICATOR FOR A NORMAL DOCK AGAIN! (although i have no choice with the X1).

Hi skrasher, welcome to the forum,
could you please try the following to see if it changes the behaviour of the USB ports. In Device Manager, with the port rep attached, disable the ability on each of the USB Root Hubs for Windows to disable the device in order to save power, restart the system and see if the problem still occurs.
Let us know how you get on.
edit; for clarity

Port Replicator vs Docking station. What's the difference?

I've just received a port replicator for my T410, and I find that I can't lock the Thinkpad to the unit. I presume THIS is the difference between a replicator and a dock.... Is that true?
However, looking at the description of the port replicator, it says, and I quote, that it has "a cable lock slot to secure both your port replicator and your notebook".
So how can it secure the notebook? I've had to get a second Kensington Lock to lock both the replicator and Thinkpad down securely ------ or am I missing something here?
UPDATE: Ok - so now I see that the Kensington Lock on the Port Replicator does lock the laptop to the unit. Thus the only differences I can see is that a D/Station has some extra ports (Parallel printer, couple more displays, headphone & microphone). Is that all?

Port replicator just replicates the port choices on the laptop, while the docks offer more port choices that are not available on the laptop itself.

W540 Port Replicator

Will the port replicator for a W520 work with the W540? I've got a W540 on order, and just thought about the port replicator.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The Series 3 Port replicator only works for W510, W520 and W530. W540 uses the new generation dock.

Port replicator, docking station 2504

I need to ask dumb and dumber questions.
First the dumb question. I have a T61 that I upgraded to Windows 7. I used the automatic driver utility and everything works fine, both docked in a 2504 or undocked. I would like a more detailed user manual than the one you can get in support. That one says to go to the Lenovo help in ThinkAdvantage to "port replicators" for detailed instructions, however that is replaced with the Toolbox for Windows 7 which does not have any info for port replicators. Is there any way to get a detailed user manual or the detailed help for the 2504 port replicator?
If I had that I may not have to ask the second dumber question. The key, which I have, can not be removed unless it is in the locked position requiring the key to unlock and use the dock. Is there any way to remove the key in the unlocked position so the key is not needed? I really don't need that type of security and worry I may someday lose the key, even if I leave it in the lock.
Thanks for any help

thanks for reeply.
I can only take out the key when it is in the unlocked position, when I move it to the locked it is held by something in the lock, I have pushed buttons, unplugged the power but it still only can be removed with the key "vertical" or unlocked, with the key horizontal or locked it is stuck in.
because I do not have the detailed help for this mini dock, they were lost in the Windows 7 upgrade, according to the very basic mini dock user guide it says to go to the Lenovo help in ThinkAdvantage under port replicator for detailed help, but that was only available with the original OS, Vista, Windows 7 Lenovo upgrade has a ThinkAdvantage Toolbox which does not have that help available, I believe there must be a certain button or a release slot I can't see to release the key

Is Port Replicator from Tecra 9100 compatible with Tecra M5?

I have a port replicator (model PA3082E 1PRP) for my malfunctioning 3 year old Tecra 9100. I am buying a Tecra M5. Do I need to get a new Port Replicator for the M5 or is my old one compatible with the new computer?

Hi
I think it should be compatible.
But on the Toshiba options and accessories site I have found only these supported devices with M5:
Advanced Port Replicator III PA3314E-1PRP
Advanced Port Replicator III plus PA3474E-1PRP
USB 2.0 Port Replicator II (Ethernet / EU Version) PX1173E-1PRP
USB 2.0 Port Replicator II (Ethernet / UK Version) PX1173U-1PRP
In my knowledge this are the newest port replicators which are available maybe therefore the old devices are not listed.
I think you could try to connect carefully the notebook with your old port replicator.

Where can I download a user manual for Advanced Port Replicator III plus

Where can I download a user manual for this?
I have searched the download manuals section but cannot find a reference to this.
Thanks for any help

Seems this manual is not available in the Toshiba user manual page.
But usually you should receive a user manual together with the Advanced Port Replicator III plus.

How to Disable WiFi for Portege R830 + Port Replicator& External Keyboard

Dumb questions I'm sure, but this is driving me nuts.
I have a Port Replicator with external keyboard and monitor attached. The Port replicator has an wired Ethernet connection to my LAN. When I dock my R830 into the Port Replicator I'd ideally like it to turn off the wireless adapter, but as a minimum I definitely want it to default to using the wired LAN connection not WiFi.
Currently it just seems to randomly decide to either use the wired or wireless connection when I dock.
So ... two part question:
1. How can I set the R830 to automatically default to a wired Ethernet connection when I dock?
2. How can I disable the wireless connection when I'm docked and using an external keyboard (the F8 toggle to turn wireless on/off on the laptop keyboard doesn't work on external keyboards)
Many thanks in advance for your advice.

> How can I set the R830 to automatically default to a wired Ethernet connection when I dock?
If the port replicator is connected to the LAN then the notebook would use the LAN connection automatically if you connect the R830.
> How can I disable the wireless connection when I'm docked and using an external keyboard (the F8 toggle to turn wireless on/off on the laptop keyboard doesn't work on external keyboards)
Well, in such case you can use the internal keyboard to switch off the Wlan using Fn + F8
