Satellite L300-217 - Can't connect to WLAN

I can see the SKY network I am trying to connect to (5 bars). _I cannot connect_ (despite having the network encryption key).The error message is "user timed out" (it hardly thinks about it when I press connect)
I have an old WPA wireless network connection through Virgin which I CANNOT remove. I hit remove and it disappears for a few seconds then comes back. SKY seem to think this is the problem
I have updated both my Realtek and Atheros wireless network adapters
Any suggestions? Thanks

Hi Macius,
Thanks for your note, I only just read it. I managed to resolve the problem. I have put some detail below just in case anyone has a similar problem.
I had 2 pieces of legacy Virgin software running which I was unaware of. By pure luck, I hovered over one of them in the system tray which was "Wireless Broadband Manager". Having uninstalled them both I was then able to "connect" to my SKY broadband WLAN.
This didn't allow me to actually bring down any pages so I went to "Network Sharing Centre" > "Manage Wireless Networks" > highlighted my SKY network > "Adapter Properties" > highlighted Internet Protocol Version 4 > and changed settings to "Obtain IP address automatically and Obtain DNS automatically".
I presume the Virgin software was monopolising my broadband connection and preventing me from connecting automatically to any other network.
Thanks for the replies I really appreciate it.

Satellite L300-19Y - Can I connect it to a TV?

It's just the standard laptop package.

oldish tv, has female S-socket (4 pin), and female yellow video phono, red + white audio phonos.
What I dont know, is - laptop handbook says 15 pin output is a monitor port, so is this a VGA output with TV-out functionality?
All the cable suppliers say....
"Ensure TV-Out function from the computer or laptop to function correctly"
"Works with laptops and desktops with VGA cards that have a TV-Out function through the VGA connector."

Satellite L300-29X - How to connect to television?

I have a Toshiba Satellite L300-29X with a mini-VGA output and would like to connect it to my television, preferably through the DVI-I dual analogue/digital input, but cannot find a cable that will do this. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I live in the UK and as such, only have access to UK based retailers and do not want to pay the exorbitant costs of importing from overseas.
If all else fails, I could connect through the SCART input on my TV, but again, could anyone point me in the right direction of a cable that could do this?
Cheers in advance for any help.

I've also just noticed my TV has a 9-pin RS232 input as well if that is any help?

OK, I think I know what I need now, obviously I've been getting myself confused somewhere.
I must have read something somewhere about mini-VGA ports and got my wires crossed, so to speak. I tried a VGA cable from an old monitor and it fits nicely, it's just that my laptop doesn't have the bits for the screws to go into, so I presume that is the only difference that makes it "mini".
Anyway, thanks for all the help guys and hopefully once I can locate the correct cable and adapter, I'll be able to watch my new star trek film boxset on a decent size screen! Good Times! :-D

Satellite L300 - Where can I order a new screen?

Hello everybody,
I have a toshiba satellite L300-29R, the screen is broken. The computer works fine on an external screen. Where can I order a new screen? I'm from belgium.
Thanks.

Hey,
You can order such a screen from an authorized service provider in Belgium for example. The guys sell all original Toshiba spare parts so they can order a screen for you.
Here is a list of ASPs where you can search for newest one:

Can't connect to WLAN with Nokia E71x

Hi,
I have Nokia E71x and I can't connect to home WLAN, on screen it says that routher is found but when I wan't to go to Internet trough WLAN (Start web browsing ) it says WLAN: Unable to connect, Invailed WPA pre-shared key. Need help.
Regards

Check the router if you have set a password or any changes that you have made on it. This is because if your router is a secured connection (asking for a code or password), you have to make sure that you have entered the correct password.

Can't connect to wlan

Hi everybody,
for some reason my MacPro won't connect to my home network, a dsl wlan. I have 2 iPhones in there, one AppleTV, my MacbookPro, my wife's MBP, an AirPortExtreme and an AirportExpress, all doing fine (exept my wife's MBP wich gets kicked out of the network constantly, but disabling and reenabling wifi solves the problem.).
So the network is ok. My MacPro connects to my MBP with direct c2c-network, and it connects to my iPhone via personal hotspot. So the MacPros wifi works fine as well.
Only I can't get it to connect to my wlan. We changed provider a while ago, 2 months approx., at the beginning it worked, not well, got kicked out all the time, but ist worked. Now it tells me something like (I have to translate, so never mind the exact wording in english) "can't connect because of timed out". Something of the kind.
Now I tried to erase the keychain for the wlan-password, didn't change a thing.
I took out one of the devices of the network, the airport express, didn't change either.
I saw though that my MacPro does not have an IP address. I don't know how I can tell it to have one... this might be the problem's solution.
Anyone an idea? Anyone who had this problem before? With the old provider (and wlan router) everything was ok.
The router is a fritz box, the provider is m-net.de
I'm desperate... thanks for your help, and best regards from the home of the Oktoberfest - Munich.

I can't see any. I just compared with my MacBook, where it shows, but on my MacPro there is none. No IP, no IPv4 or IPv6. Strange.
Since I'm in this home network, I suppose the addresses are assigned by the router, could this be right? Only on the router's software interface - which I access via browser and my MacBook, there is no possibility to activate a new device or anything of the kind.

Satellite L20-101: can't connect my TV with the svhs

Hi dudes,
i have a problem.
I have a L20 - 101 and i can't connect my tv with the svhs exit of my toshiba.
I reinstalled drivers for motherboard and videographics, what can i try?
thanks

Ok, sounds like a really un-nice problem.
So, how do you try to switch to the TV? You have the option in your display properties, but does the machine *recognize* the TV? You have also the key combination FN+F5 to change the display, did you already tried it?
And regarding your display drivers (which vga do you have? nvidia or ati?)
You can take a look here to find the latest working drivers for mobile platforms:

Good luck buddy

Satellite C655D-S5533 can't connect to internet through ethernet (wireless connection ok)

I can't get an ethernet connection thru my ISP's (Comcast) internet cable box. I clicked the LAN icon on control panel but still can't connect.

First, reboot the Comcast box and then reboot the computer. If it still doesn't work, look in Device Manager under Network Adapters. If the LAN adapter shown there is Atheros, reinstall using THIS driver. If it says something else, post back. I'm assuming you are still using Windows 7 64 bit that came with the machine.

Satellite L670-1DW - can't connect 3.5 jack

Hi,
I recently buy this notebook, but I can't connect standard 3.5 jack headphones (or microphone) - connector is too long, I can't plug it entire.
Manual says notebook have 3.5 connectors, so where is problem?
(PS: sorry for my english, I didn't use it for a few years...)
Thanks for answers.

Yes, manuals says it has 3,5 mm audio port and it is standard for all Toshiba notebooks.
Where is the problem?
It is not easy to say. Maybe you use some other standard.
Talk with your local dealer and ask him where the problem is. Show the headset/ headphones and ask him what is wrong there.
It is not easy to discuss this on the forum. We dont know which device you want to use and how it looks like.

Satellite L350 - Can't connect via WLan

Hi
New to this thread lark
Just bought a L350
I've managed to connect to the interent using a cable, but am unable to connect via wifi.
Wifi is switched on. It finds my BT Home Hub, but when i connect it just says it is unable to.
Help, please

Did you check the Wifi device in Device Manager? Is the driver installed properly?
Try disabling your Firewall, that could be blocking the Wifi connection.
Also try pressing Fn+F9 to toggle the Wireless devices

Satellite T110-11U - Can't find the WLAN router

Hi,
I have a Toshiba Satellite T110-11U. Have had it since Feb and loved it - happily used it wireless throughout the house. Then one day about a month ago unless I was in the same room as the wireless router, wireless doesn't work. I have 2 other laptops (and an iPhone) that still connect wirelessly throughout the house and the garden without problem.
As you can imagine, this was very strange. When I take it out in to the garden, my other laptops find all the wireless networks in the area, but my Toshiba finds none.
Suspecting it was a driver issue, I made sure the wireless drivers were up to date. With no joy there, I recovered the system to as it was when purchased (doing a full restore by interupting the booting up and letting the hard disk be wiped and reinstalled etc). Still the same problem. I've even changed the rooms the router is in, and the same problem - the Toshiba can't find the router unless the router is within a couple of metres of the laptop.
Before I lose the will to live, can someone suggest the cause of my problems, or is it time I admitted defeat and took it back to comet under warranty (where the will probably test it next to a wireless router and tell me all is fine!).
Many thanks,
Steve.

>the Toshiba can't find the router unless the router is within a couple of metres of the laptop
Does this mean that the T110 can find the wlan but only if its placed near the router?
Just other hint;
Go to BIOS and set it to default! Ensure hat Wlan is enabled and dont forget to save the changes.
You should also go to control panel -> device manager -> Wlan card properties -> Advanced tab.
Should check the Wlan settings like the Wlan encryption, Wlan channel, etc
Be sure you have enabled the WLan card on your notebook as well!

Satellite L300 - I can't turn up the volume for a low battery

Hello dear Toshiba users
My english is not very well.
I have a Toshiba notebook L300 Satellite
My problem is that i can't turn up the volume for a low battery
Is there any one who knows how i can resolve it?
thanx
mariete

Hi
I think you want to enable the sound notification when battery gets empty.
Is it right?
Well, you can do this in Vista Power settings
I assume you are using the Vista OS and therefore this battery notification can be enabled in Vista Power settings.
Please check this Toshiba doc.
+How to handle power managment features of Windows Vista+
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD84026Q0000R01.htm
There you can find the settings for battery. Its called Low battery level
Check it.

Satellite Pro P100 - Can't connect to Internet via LAN

I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro P100. Model No SPSA4A-005002
I used my recovery disk and wiped my computer, because of a virus and now I cant connect to the internet via cable but my wireless internet works perfectly.
Its completely dead there are no lights at the back of the laptop from where I plug the cable in.

Hi
Is your LAN card recognized properly in device manager?
In your case I would try updating the LAN driver. You can get the latest version here:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
Furthermore you check the BIOS version. The latest version should be installed and load the default settings there.
In worst case its a hardware problem and you have to exchange the whole mainboard :(

Satellite L20-153 can't get the WLAN to work

Hi everyone,
I have a problem with my wifes laptop that I havent been able 2 solve.
Her windows crashed and wouldnt start the marker in "DOS" just keept blinking and nothing happend I tried to restore to latest previous working windows , but that didnt help nor did the failsafe mode. So I took out the recovery CD/DVD and tried make a fresh installation the install setup worked fine until it asked me 2 take out the disc and restart the comp which I did.
When it rebooted the same problem appeared (blinking marker and nothing happens).
So what I did was I took out a normal windowes XP (SP2) and reinstalled eveverything ( I formated the drive also) and rebooted and it worked.
So then 2 my next challenge was 2 get all the hardware working all I got all working but the WLAN (built-in).
After I had installed everyting I saw my wireless network but next time I started the comp it was gone along with all other WLAN that I use to be albe 2 see. and when I refreash its still empty.
I have tried to inactivate it and then activate it again but it doenst help.
I also tried once more to use the Toshiba recevory disc but got the same problem.
So now Im back with my own windows Xp installed on it but I cant get the WLAN to work.
There isnt any hardware conflics.
So now I need your help on how 2 proceed.
tanks alot.
Regards,
Quickhat

Hello
About WLAN there is actually no philosophy and few things are important:
The WLAN card must be installed properly (properly listed in device manager) and
It must be also enabled. At first with WLAN switch (WLAN LED is ON) and then enable it using FN+F8 key combination.
After doing this WLAN card should see all available WLANs. To connect one of them is another theme.
To be honest I didnt understand what happen exactly. If I understand you right your notebook can see WLANs but after restart all available WLANs are not visible anymore. Am I right about that?
Have you tried to restart your WLAN router and scan the WLAN area again?

My E75 can't connect to WLAN(wifi)

am e75 user.
I'v try to connet ma fone to wifi
Bt i keep receiving msg lyk this...
Wlan network found
Bt ny tym i try to open d found network it appear to be a HIDDEN NETWORK nd wen i try to acess the network i'l be ask to gv d network name of which i dnt no the name to gv it..smtymz wen i try writing ny name it says WLAN NETWORK nt found
Pls i nd sm1 to help me out solve this problem...
Solved!
Go to Solution.

When the phone says "Hidden WLAN", that generally means it didn't find any WLAN networks. When was the last time you used WiFi successfully on your E75? If you are sure one or more WiFi networks are available but the phone isn't finding them, I am concerned the WiFi antenna or electronics could be faulty.
Suggestion: can you visit a friend, Internet Cafe, or elsewhere where a knowledgeable person can give you all the settings to configure a WiFi connection manually and also possibly some technical support? Try a manual setup once, and if that still fails, consider either hard resetting your phone (*#7370# , default password 12345 ...but back up all important data first!) or having the phone serviced. I hope that helps!
