Satellite L650 - WLAN connection disconnects when the AC adapter is removed

Hi,
I purchased Toshiba Satellite L650 in April 2011 in Canada.It works perfectly fine in Canada, however when I bring the laptop to HK to use, i found the wirless lan connection drops or completely disconnected very frequently.
However, my 3 other laptops in hk doesn't have that problem.
I have
- updated all the bio for window and software for wlan card;
- disable the power saving level,
- increased the the TX power lever
- did what the following link said
http://support.toshiba.ca/support/techsupport/tsbs/viewtsb.asp?docid=TSB001593
and still doesn't help.
It is really frustrated to browse when the internet is on and off.
Could someone please help?
Thanx

  • Mini HDMI-DVI disconnects when vga thunderbolt adapter is removed

    What I have found is that if the vga and HDMI adapters are connected to a monitor, I can get a signal from the HDMI-DVI adapter.  But when I disconnect the vga adapter, the HDMI-DVI signal goes away too.  Anybody know what's going on here?

    As other threads on this have pointed to, Monoprice sells HDMI/mini-displayport to VGA cables.

    Given the minor price variations, why not get a 10'?
    It's very annoying that Apple's included adapters are DVI-D not -I, otherwise I could use those DVI-I to VGA adapters that seem to litter my clients spaces....

  • Why does my macbook only turn on when the power adapter is plugged in?

    The battery life says its at 73% and climbing but whenever I unplug my power adapter the mac automatically shuts down and if I try to turn on the macbook without my power adapter plugged in, it wont turn on. How do I make it go back to where I can turn the mac on without it being plugged in? Thank you for your help!

    I would try two things the first being resetting the System Management Controller:
    1) If the computer is on, turn it off.
    2) Disconnect the AC Adapter and remove the computer's battery.
    3) Press and hold down the power button for 5 seconds and then release the button.
    4) Reconnect the battery and AC Adapter.
    5) Press the Power button to restart the computer.
    If that doesn't work I would recalibrate the battery.
    To calibrate the battery:
    1) Plug in the MagSafe power adapter and fully charge the MacBook or MacBook Pro battery until the light on the MagSafe connector changes to green and the Battery icon in the menu bar indicates that the battery is fully charged.
    2) Allow the battery to rest in the fully charged state for two hours or longer. You may use your computer during this time as long as the power adapter is plugged in.
    3) Disconnect the power adapter with the computer on and start using it with battery power. When the battery's charge gets low, you’ll see the low battery warning dialog on the screen.
    4) Continue to keep your computer turned on until it goes to sleep. Save your work and close all applications when the battery's charge gets low and before the computer goes to sleep.
    5) Turn off the computer or allow it to sleep for five hours or longer.
    6) Reconnect the power adapter and leave it connected until the battery is fully charged. You may use your computer during this time.

  • Jdev. Db connection - Io exception: The Network Adapter could not establish

    Hi,
    I installed Oracle 9i and forms 9i in my PC. Both are working fine including SQL.
    Now i would like to use Jdeveloper. When i try to create a database connection "Io exception: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection" error returned.
    My Db connection details are
    Driver thin
    host name harry
    jdbc port 1521
    sid oradb
    where oradb is database name and harry is host name.
    also i try to give the following details in Enter Custom JDBC Url option
    jdbc:oracle:thin:@harryt:1521:oradb
    But, i get the same error. So, can you pl. help me to fix this problem.
    - Murali

    The Network Adapter exception is caused because:
    1. The database host name, port number, or database instance name is wrong.
    2. The database TNSListener has not been started. The TNSListener may be started with the lsnrctl utility.

  • Satellite M70: WLAN connection lost

    Hello!
    I have Satellite M70 and I use integrated Intel WLAN card 2200bg. I have the latest drivers downloaded from Toshiba web site and Asus WLAN router w520g with latest firmware. Connection signal is excellent but sometimes actually very often connection is lost for 5-10 seconds.... I am downloading files all the time so there is no idle time in network traffic.
    How can I inspect what is reason for losting connection?
    Could authentication method or channel mode be a reason for problems?

    Hi!
    I updated my driver(latest one from intel website) and problem still exists. But now with Intel Wireless utility I can see error messages when connection goes down. I also opened support case to Intel about this problem. Let's see what they suggest.
    I have also tested different kind of variations of configurations (power settings etc.) but no helps!
    Now I am testing WLAN connection without authentication and it seems to work ok without connection lost. I will test different kind of authentication methods because i really want to see what authentication causes problems.
    One thing I can say more. If I want to see connection break as soon as possible, I have to generete traffic with different kind of p2p programs and I also ping my router (default gateway) with command ping -t -l 1500 same time.

  • Garmin Forerunner 210 keeps connecting/disconnection when plugged in HP Pavilion dv6-3040sd

    I have a problem connecting my Garmin Forerunner 210 (GF210) to my HP Pavilion dv6-3040sd. I know the problem is with the laptop, because i tried several other laptops and on those it works well. When i connect the device, windows installs the drivers. so far so good. When the drivers are installed, the laptop recognises the GF210 and it connects. A window pops up letting me choose what i want to do, but before i can decide the device is disconnected and connected again. It goes on and on like this. 
    On onther laptops the GF210 is seen in the 'Computer' section as a external harddrive.
    My laptop is running on Windows 7 64-bit and all the latest updates from windows are installed.
    Does anybody know an answer to this problem? 
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hello again HarmR,
    It is good to hear back from you!
    Since you have already applied the document above with no success, I recommend changing the drive letter of the Garmin Forerunner 210. This can be done by following the steps of this document on how to Change, add, or remove a drive letter.
    Additionally, I also suggest following the steps below in order to recognize a USB device in Windows 7: 
    Step 1. Click Start
    Step 2. Click Control Panel
    Step 3. Click Administration Tools
    Step 4. Click on Computer Management
    Step 5. Click on Disk Management 
    *** If it was not seen there, go to 'Action' on the menu bar, click on 'Rescan Disks' and it should come up. If it does show here does it have a drive letter assigned? If not follow the instructions below:
    Step 1. Right-click on the removable drive
    Step 2. Click on Change drive Letter...
    Step 3. Assign a drive letter
    Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

  • Dial-up connection disconnects when importing CDs into iTunes

    When importing a CD, my dial-up Internet connection disconnects after each song has finished importing. The importing doesn't seem to be affected, but I keep having to reconnect. This is very annoying!
    Has anyone else had this problem, and how can I fix it?

    This is also a known phenomenon on Macs with a dial-up connection.
    For Macs there is a workaround, but no solution yet.
    By using an Applescript, the firewall settings will be toggled on CD insert, preventing iTunes to contact Gracenote (to get track information).
    I don't know something similar for Windows.
    Maybe you can write some code yourself.
    The URL to block (temporary) is "http://service.gracenote.com"
    You can always get the track information later by selecting all tracks of an imported CD and choosing 'Get CD Track Names' from the Advanced menu in iTunes.

  • Users getting disconnected when the sap cluster group failover happens.

    Hello all,
    We have done the HA installation on mysaperp2005(ecc6.0).
    The failover groups are sapcluster group(ascs+scs instance) and the Database(DB group).The central and the dialog instances are installed locally and do not form the part of the cluster.
    When ever the sapcluster group failover to the second node.The users gets disconnected and need to login again.
    How can we configure the nodes so that the users do not get disconnected during the failover of the sap groups and the users are not disturbed.
    thanks
    satyajit

    Hi Satyajit,
    This is exactly the reason why it is called High Availability and not Full Availability.
    When the node where Database runs fails, the memory structure (Instance) associated with the Database is lost and needs to be restarted on the other node. This means that all the transactions which have not been commited to the database needs to be rolled back. Hence the users doing insert/updates into the database will be disconnected from the System.
    While the database is unavailable the Work processes go into a restart mode wherein they wait for the DB to come up again and keep pining it.
    Database becomes available again after the Instance is started on the other node with Instance recovery and the users can connect back. Work processes recognize that the database is available and everything is back to normal.
    In case of Central Instance (enqueue) failover, the lock information is lost and hence again the transactions need to be rolled back hence the users will be disconnected if they are doing an Insert/Update into the System. System becomes available once the Enqueue service is made available again after the failover.
    So in either case there will be user disconnects as HA doesnot cover the memory structure failovers.
    Hope this clears it up for you.
    Thanks and Best Regards,
    Sunil.

  • Quick way to connect/disconnect on the fly?  cable broadband

    Hi all, I might just be missing something obvious here?
    I have several computers connected via a router to my cable modem and all is working fine
    now on my Windows machine I can connect and disconnect on the fly very easily with a single click so that my computer can be offline when I need
    however there doesn't seem to be a simple connect/disconnect "switch" on OSX Tiger? I am online constantly unless I dig right down in my network seetings, am I missing something here?
    cheers, Robert

    See when you are connected directly to an ethernet router, the router is providing a DHCP connection usually, meaning the only way to disconnect is to either power off the router, or disconnect the cable. If you were connected directly to the modem and the connection was PPPoE, Mac OS X does provide a menubar icon to connect and disconnect PPPoE connections. Also if you have a wireless router/Airport base station, there is a menubar icon you can put in for connecting and disconnecting your wireless connection. But for plain ethernet DHCP, I've not seen such a menubar icon. There may be options on http://www.versiontracker.com/ or http://www.macupdate.com/ I don't know about. You might want to search there or instead use your Mac wirelessly.

  • Satellite L350D - WLAN keeps disconnecting

    Hi everybody!
    I have a problem with my L350 D . My notebooks connects via Wlan to the internet but it keeps disconnecting every now and then for a short period of time ( from some seconds to half a minut) from the internet.
    I dont knwo what to do! I havent changed anything on the Drivers. Other computers dont have this problem via Wlan , so its not the router.
    I hope you can help me!

    Maybe you should change the driver or lets say update it.
    Try to update the WLAN driver. Therefore visit the Toshiba European driver download website:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com => Support & Downloads => Download Drivers
    If it doesnt work try to update the BIOS. You can find it on the Toshiba website too.
    And by the way what OS do you use?

  • Satellite Pro U400 sometimes freezes when the power cord is plugged in

    Hello! I know this problem has been discussed here and there but I would like to open a new thread on that. Here is the scenario.
    I have recently bought a new Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-247 (PSU45E) with two batteries: (a) the original one, (b) additionally purchased Toshiba genuine PA3636U-1BRL, 7200 mAh. The notebook has the latest BIOS (4.80) and the latest drivers downloaded from Toshiba and installed (ConfigFree is not installed). I am using XP Pro SP3 (clean install done by myself). Everything is working very well, except for one thing:
    Sometimes (but not always), when the notebook is working on battery and I plug in the power cord, everything freezes and I have to restart. Some observations:
    (a) it tends to happen more frequently when the low battery alarm has already sounded;
    (b) it seems to happen more frequently with the 7200 mAh battery and less frequently with the original battery;
    (c) it seems to happen more often when a USB device (e.g. mouse) has been connected with the notebook, but that is not a rule;
    (d) it seems to happen less frequently when I move the USB mouse at the time I am plugging in the power cord;
    (e) I have experimented a lot with Toshiba PowerSaver's settings (e.g. changed the CPU levels for my profiles) but nothing I have modified seems to change the situation;
    (f) I have tried various suggestions I found on different forums, but no avail (e.g. BIOS settings);
    (g) otherwise, I can say that I really have not seen a smoother computer, everything else is really working just fine, no other problems whatsoever :)
    All this makes me think that this must be some kind of bug in the motherboard drivers, the PowerSaver driver or other drivers interacting with the battery, the CPU or possibly USB. Is there an explanation for this problem and can it be rectified somehow (e.g. by providing a driver update)?

    Hello, thanks for the reply!
    My bad, of course I meant the chipset driver. That, however, does not change the essence of the question. Also, I know that a notebook should function properly even the AC adaptor is connected or not connected. That is why I posted my question.
    As for the OS reinstall, sorry, I would not do that just on some wild guess from somebody. I recently finished the clean OS install. I have installed XP on dozens of notebooks in my life and I know what I am doing. I have been into computers and networking for 15 years and I know when I see a problem not related to how I install my OSes.
    My personal opinion: this problem has not to do with the OS install since the same problem also existed when I test-installed the XP OS image from Toshiba's own downgrade CD (that was before I did a clean install from my own slipstreamed CD). And, if you really use a properly and carefully configured OS with all the necessary software, an OS reinstall is not something you just do every day.
    As for the rest (testing the memory / adapter / motherboard etc.): as I have mentioned, similar (although not identical) topics have been raised in various other instances (e.g. at http://laptopforums.toshiba.com/t5/B...EABCA64EE6C5D9) . That means that this problem is most probably not specific to my computer or even to U400 but it may happen with other Toshiba notebooks too. Therefore a (rather standard) suggestion to spend days on reinstalling (and in my case, carefully reconfiguring) the OS, checking the memory, adapter, mobo etc. does not sound as the most plausible one in this case. FYI, I always do full tests on hardware right after I have installed an OS. In this computer, all tests (Toshiba's own; 3rd party memory diagnostics, HDD diagnostics) were passed OK. Indeed, I did not have the AC adapter tested but as it otherwise works fine, the possible problem (if there is one) would be a minor one to notice, and would require testing at a Toshiba service centre (there is no direct Toshiba agency in my country). I think testing the AC adapter is the last resort as much more probably, the problem lies somewhere else.
    Even if this problem is hardware-related, I do not expect Toshiba to replace all such hardware out there. However, on many occasions, hardware-related problems can be cured or alleviated on the software side (e.g. by a driver or BIOS update). Since it seems that other people are having similar problems with Toshiba hardware/software, I thought that maybe someone has found an actual solution or maybe there are Toshiba employees reading these forums who could look into it.

  • Connecting/Disconnection from the Dock

    Greetings,
    An 'operational' question here. With my old (non-mac) MP3 player, I would just leave the USB cable plugged into the port at the back it the iMac display and connect and disconect the player from the free end of the cable when necessary.
    Can I do this with the Shuffle? That is to say, can I leave the Docking Station plugged into the iMac all the time, and just plug the Shuffle into the Dock when I need to charge or change music?
    Thanks for any input.

    YES ... It's what I do.
    Also, it's good practice to EJECT the shuffle in iTunes before removing it from the dock

  • Why does Satellite Pro A300 not start when the power button is pressed?

    Suddenly my new Satellite Pro A300 will not start correctly when the power button is pressed. The situation is this: When I press the power button the Toshiba opening picture (Leading Innovation) appears and disappers quickly. Then there is a black screen for about 30 seconds. Then there is a rectangular frame with the text Microsoft Corporation underneath. And nothing happens however long I wait.
    In order to get on with the starting proces I then shut down the computer by pressing down the power button until the computer stops. ("The hard way to shut down")
    Now I press the power button shortly to turn on the computer. Then the computer starts normally with the Toshiba opening picture and after a few seconds I am asked to open the computer in safe mode or in normal mode. I now choose to open in normal mode and the computer opens normally and is ready to work.
    What shall I do to get a normal start procedure?

    When notebook starts normally (after choosing normal mode) shut down your notebook properly using START > Shut down option. Next start should be normal.
    When the OS is switched down on irregular way you will be always asked how to start it again (safe or normal mode).
    The same happen on my Satellite A300.
