How To use a wireless in Satellite L305-S5968

I just recently purchased a Toshiba Satellite L305-S5968 and I've never used or been able to set up a wireless PC.
How exactly can I use this PC to be wireless so I can login for free at the local library.
My wireless network card is this one: Realtek RTL8187B Wireless 802.11g 54Mbps USB 2.0 Network Adapter.
I have the LAN working just fine but I'm afraid that the library does not have LAN plugins there.
What all do I need and what do I need to do to make this work.
I need step by step instructions on this please do not post vague answers.
I'm not a PC idiot, but I have never set this up before so this is new for me.
EDIT: Sorry I realize this may help...
I'm running Windows XP SP2 on here I believe.
I have my own disk i installed it with. I'll also be installing the wireless driver becasue apparently its missing as well.
Thanks

Hi,
Im a little bit confused about your posting. What you want to know exactly?
I mean you can WLAN instead of LAN without problems. Its the same just without cable. You have only to check the TCP/IP settings on your computer that is also depending on the router and type in the right password from the router Thats all!
Furthermore I have founded an interesting document:

  • How can use my Wireless Location Appliance to work with RF ID's?

    How can use my Wireless Location Appliance to work with RF ID's for Asset Tagging.
    It seems Smartcard used for ID cards have a small RF ID, can I use this for Asset Tagging?
    Thanks in Advance

    There are two kinds of RFID tags: Active tags, which have a battery or other internal power source, and passive tags, which have no power source and work by reflecting the energy from an RFID scanner (basically). At the energy levels and distances used for WiFi location detection, passive tags will not return a detectable signal.
    Take a look at http://www.aeroscout.com/ for more info on WiFi RFID tagging.

  • Satellite L305-S5968 continually freezes seemingly at random

    Started late last night, round midnight. I'd just be browsing and all of a sudden the whole computer would freeze up. No big deal. Not like it hasn't happened before. Tried the whole Ctrl+Alt+Del thing, and it comes up with the "Failure to create security options" error message. Done that before too, so I do a manual reboot. Over the next two and a half hours the whole computer continues to freeze up, but it happens at random times no matter what I'm doing. After a while I notice it tends to freeze not long after the Windows Security Center notifications pop up, but I'm tired so I go to bed. This morning the problem persists. I go onto the desktop and start looking for ways to solve this on google. I followed http://tinyurl.com/o697ps and it worked, more or less. Under the new account I managed to stay on for an hour and a half without issue, and I rectified the problem with Security Center that was making it pop up. So I turn off the laptop and come back here to the desktop to see how to transfer the files from my old account to this new one, start up the laptop, go into the second account, and bam -- ten minutes of working and all of a sudden same problem. Been browsing through this here forum but I can't seem to find anything that sounds as if it would help, so here I am.

  • Idea about how-to using 'Agilent Wireless Test Manager' interfaces in Labview ?

    Hello everyone,
    I am not sure whether it is appropriate to post this here.  
    Currently I got a Wireless Test Manager CD(Agilent E6560A) and is trying to convert some functionalities inside class 'cdmaTXMeasTests' into labview.
    I am doing the 'code domain power testing' module with labview, which is well done in that 'cdmaTXMeasTests'.
    I am wondering if any one could provide me some idea how to use that 'cdmaTXMeasTests' in my labview without rebuild the wheel.
    ( I am not sure whether that would work,  Are the libaries used by wireless test manager a  ActiveXDLL that could be used by labview ? Or there is some other way to do it or not?)
    Any idea is well appreciated,
    +Kunsheng Chen

    Good Afternoon Kunsheng Chen,
    It seems like you are trying to port your DLL.  Rather, I would suggest using a Call Library Function Node (right-click the Block Diagram, Functions>>Connectivity>>Libraries & Executables>>Call Library Function Node).
    From the Agilent website, this is a C dll so you will be able to access it using this VI in LabVIEW with no problems.  You might want to contact Agilent to see if this DLL has ActiveX components.  Alternatively, you can simply browse the list of ActiveX components on your computer.
    The following links may provide some useful information for using a DLL in LabVIEW.

  • Using restore disk on Satellite L305-S5919

    Two years ago we bought our daughter a Toshiba Satellite L305-S5919 to use at college.  Near the end of her first year it overheated and she needed to have a new hard drive installed, which was done under warranty at Best Buy.
    This spring she started getting an intermittent, high-pitched noise.  When the noise started, her computer would either freeze or slow way down.
    We were told by the geek squad at Best Buy to remove a lot of the startup programs, which we did.  Still had the noise. I updated her anti-virus and ran it, installed all the updates that had been downloaded but never installed, ran disk cleanup, and ran disk defragmenter.
    Then since it was still making the high-pitched noise I tried scandisk.
    Scandisk showed the following message - I think it was on the 4th step:  "Windows replaced bad clusters in file 153340 of name \SYSTEM~1\{A45BA~1"
    After that it wouldn't boot past the Toshiba splash screen.  I can use the F2 and F12 commands from that screen, but it I just let it go it says a "disk read error occurred press ctrl-alt-delete to restart" - which just does the same thing over and over and over.  One time it made a sound like breaking glass, other times the hard drive just grinds away.
    So I went back to Best Buy and the geek squad said use the Restore disks that my daughter had bought last year when she had the hard drive replaced.
    I am currently running disk 1 of the restore disks.  The geek squad said it could take 5 hours to complete - is that correct?  At first there was the word Microsoft with some bars running across the bottom of the screen.  Now that's gone away and I have the cursor arrow in the middle of a black screen.  The hard drive indicator is faintly flashing intermittently.  For a while it was making grinding noises, then squeaky sounds.  Now the only noise I hear is from the cooling mat underneath the laptop (don't want it to overheat again). 
    Should it be showing me any progress report on the screen?  Is it stuck?  Should I eject the restore disk and start over?  Should I take the laptop to the nearest bridge and throw it into the river?  Or am I just being impatient?
    Assuming the restore works, is the hard drive likely to fail again?  Why can't hard drives last longer than a year?

    I am wondering why you haven't recd any replies from the "Super Contibutors" here?
    Almost identical problem here in my exact same Toshiba model.  PC should be covered by the Lemon Law, just like cars.  As far as I can tell, if a hard drive caves in within 2 years it's a lemon in the first place, pretending to be a PC.
    Toshiba should make Recovery Media FREE if their models fail as fast as this one did for me  --and I and I guess hundreds of others who bought the lemon in dusguise.

  • Older Airport Express How to use as wireless to Wired.

    I am running a Belking Wireless as my main. I can set up the AE to Join exsisting network but I dont have the option to allow ethernet clients. I want to hook my DVR wired to my AE to allow it internet access. Is there any way. Has V6.3 firmware.

    If I buy the newer AX will it be possible?
    If the Belkin supports ProxySTA then you could configure this newer AX to be a wireless client and use it's Ethernet port.
    Otherwise you could connect one AX to the Belkin via Ethernet and configure it to act as a WDS main base station and the other AX to act as a WDS remote base station.

  • How to use bluetooth of a Satellite L750/l755 running Ubuntu 11.10

    Hi,
    I've install on my Toshiba Ubuntu 11.10, but I can't use the Bluetooth.
    In the web I've found that I had to install omnibook, but I'm not able to do this, can someone help me?
    Thanks!

    Hi again
    I have tried 11.10 on a cousin of your model and BT works fine running Ubuntu in live mode.
    Did not install it though.
    However since the unit I have here is not exactly the same as your model, I cannot guarantee the information is perfectly applicable to you.
    You can check if you have same hardware as I do by opening a terminal and issuing the command
    lsusb -v | bDeviceProtocol
    Make sure you type the small and big letters as I show.
    This will list all your USB devices but filtering out much of the information.
    Can You find anything saying bluetooth?
    If so please look which place it has in the list.
    My list shows me 7 red instances of bDeviceProtocol and the one with Bluetooth is the last one.
    Remembering which number in the list you got type this
    lsusb
    You will see a short list with some numbers and names of manufacturers.
    Locate the line number which You got from above. They don't have number so you need to count them.
    You will probably see something like:
    Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0930:0214 Toshiba corp
    That is your Bluetooth device ID.
    Please provide it here so I can see if we are using the same devices.
    Next issue this command:
    lsmod |grep blue
    You will see which modules are loaded that has anything to do with bluetooth.
    My unit tells me this
    bluetooth 148839 23 bnep, rfcomm,btusb
    toshiba_bluetooth 12711 0
    Never mind the numbers, just tell me which modules you see.
    Cheers

  • Help Laptop Cannot Detect my Wireless Card Satellite L305 S5946

    So I had to re-install windows to fix a couple of issues I was having. I currently have everything working except now this laptop is not registering that it has a wireless card. I can connect through ethernet and it shows that connection, but it shows no device for the wireless connection and will not read any wireless networks. THe only thing I have under Network Connections in Device Manager is for the Realtek RTL 8102E Family PCI-E Fast Ethernet NIC NDIS 6.0. Also under Manage Connections, it shows only a Lan Connection for wired connection. Anyone have any ideas? This laptop is running vista currently. Any help would be appreciated, I am completely stumped at this point. Thanks! (PS yes I know there is a button to turn wireless on and off, and it is currently switched to on and the light is lit up for wireless)

    I checked a couple things. On your computer you can turn off the LAN in the Bios, but not the wireless card. Your computer came with an Athros 802.11b/g card. And the computer should be seeing it. But if it isn't, try reinstalling the driver. Or have a technician look at the computer and verify that the card is there and not half out of the slot or damaged.

  • How do I use my wireless Led TV as a second monitor using my home network without any cables? Both of them are connected to home network

    How do I use my wireless Led TV as a second monitor to my mac book pro using my home network without any cables? Both of them are connected to home network

    Having a gateway there is not going to be a problem. We just need to configure the Time Capsule correctly to work with the 2Wire.
    You will need one ethernet cable to connect the 2Wire to the Time Capsule and a second ethernet cable to temporarily connect your computer to the Time Capsule so that it can be configured.
    The 2Wire you have now should already be broadcasting a wireless network, so once you have the Time Capsule setup, you will actually have two wireless networks there.
    Here's how to configure the Time Capsule to work with the 2Wire:
    Connect an ethernet cable from one of the LAN <-> ports on the 2Wire to the WAN (circle icon) port on the Time Capsule.
    Connect another ethernet cable temporarily from your computer to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule
    Open Hard Drive > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click Manual Setup
    Click the Base Station tab below the row of icons to assign a name for the Time Capsule, a device password (write this down) and adjust time zone settings
    Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
    Wireless Mode....Create a wireless network
    Wireless Network Name....Your choice
    Radio Mode....Automatic
    Channel...Automatic
    Wireless Security...WPA/WPA2 Personal
    Wireless Password....Your choice (write this down)
    Check mark next to....Remember password in keychain
    Click the Internet icon
    At the bottom, change the setting for Connection Sharing to "Off (Bridge Mode)"
    Click Update at the lower right and the Time Capsule will restart after 20-25 seconds and you should get the green light.
    You should now be able to connect to your Time Capsule wireless network.
    I'm not clear on whether you have tried to setup the Time Capsule to backup your computer. Post back if you need some info on that. We may need to start another thread for that as that will be a different subject.

  • How to use Airport Extreme to create a second wireless network with different IP addresses behind an existing modem/router?

    Hi,
    I have an existing modem/router from my ISP that does DHCP and NAT with base IP 192.168.1.1 distributed in the wireless network. I use this wireless network for our private devices. I could turn off the DHCP server in this first router, but there isn't a separate setting to turn off NAT.
    I want to connect my Airport Extreme (4th gen) to this existing router to create a separate wireless network for visiting guests, where IP addresses of 10.0.0.0 etc. are used. So I do not want to use the Airport Extreme in bridge mode, as I would like to keep the devices on the first network 'invisible' for those on the second network. (P.S. when connected in bridge mode, the Airport works well and can distribute a network with a different name from the first. It's just that I would feel more comfortable about our privacy if the Airport were to distribute a different IP range. False security, maybe?)
    I've tried doing this by 'Sharing a public IP address' in Airport Utility's Internet tab, leaving TCP/IP's setting to 'via DHCP', setting DHCP addresses to start with 10.0.0.2 up to 200 with all else blank, and not using a standard host nor NAT-PMP in the NAT tab.
    When I do this the Airport complains of a 'double NAT issue'. Internet connectivity seems to be OK, but when switching between the two networks on my Mac I get complaints about my IP address being in use by another device intermittently.
    Can anyone help in how to get the 'double NAT issue' resolved?
    Thanks!

    So if someone is connected to the modem/router network they will be able to see the HD I will have put in to the AirPort Extreme?
    As I said above.....since the modem/router and AirPort are bridged, devices on the modem/router wireless will be able to "see" devices on the AirPort wireless, and vice versa.....
    If they can see the HD connected to the AirPort Extreme, will they be able to access it
    Yes, unless you plan to password protect the drive connected to the AirPort Extreme.
    or will they still need the password needed to get onto the AirPort Extreme network?
    The modem/router and AirPort Extreme are bridged. They are on the same network. All devices are on the same network when the modem/router and AirPort are bridged. Not sure how else that I can say this.
    Also, because it is bridged, I shouldn't have any problems accessing the HD I will have connected to the AirPort Extreme from an external location?
    Accessing devices from a remote location is never easy....and a topic for a different post/discussion. If you have a "static" Internet IP address from your provider, and have all the details on how to forward ports on your modem/router, you are off to a good start.
    Apparently there is some addressing issues because devices can be seen as "Double IP" because the modem/router would have allocated IP's as well as the AirPort allocating IP's thus making connections slower until resolved
    When you "bridge", all IP addresses are issued by one device. There will be no conflicts on the network, since they are bridged.
    Once again, in very simple terms, you have two doors (access points) that open into the same room (network).  One "door" is the modem/router and the other "door" is the AirPort Extreme. They are on the same network....("room") because they are bridged.

  • How to Change Wi-Fi Channel Used by Wireless Direct on HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium?

    I would like to change the Wi-Fi channel that is used by Wireless Direct between my Lenovo laptop and my HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium to reduce interference from other nearby users of Ch. 6 in my condo complex. (I am not using a wireless router setup to connect to the printer.)
    Is this possible?  If so, how?

    Ah... ok.  You are using the Wireless Direct with the printer.  You computer is wireless to channel 6.  That is all you can do unless you changed the router's wireless channel which will only automatically switch on your computer.

    If you have more than one keyboard active, you may be using a different one than you want.  Use the "globe" key to make sure your virtual keyboard is set to Japanese Romaji or Japanese Kana.  Which one do you use?
    On the hardware keyboard, use apple/command plus space to switch between different keyboard layouts which may be active.
