T430 2349 WLAN Indicator always on

Hi everyone,
I have a problem with the LED-Indicator of my T430 2349: It is always on.
As soon as I power on the laptop (windows has not yet booted), the LED-Indicator is constantly on. When Windows is booted, Fn+F7 and switching off the WLAN does not turn off the LED indicator. Only the hardware switch, that powers off the WLAN-Card, switches off the indicator LED. The indicator does not blink when data is received.
I already searched the community, and though there is one other case where this problem was reported, the solution is not relevant for me, as it implied switching of the WWAN card which I do not have. (see: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/WLAN-LED-indicator-stuck-on/m-p/294486/high...
I also already tried creating the registry entry "LedMode" - no success either.
The W-Lan adapter is an Intel 6300 Ultimate.
Every advice is much appreciated.
Best wishes,
KeepOnTalking

Hi
Remove the battery and AC adaptor.
Wait some hours (2-3 hours) and then press Power button.
Then insert the battery and connect AC adaptor and check if the indicator would be on even if the WLan is disabled.

I have had the same problem with my E90. What I figured out that a program that used the wlan was causing it to not turn off. In my case this was truphone.

Satellite L850 - after WIn8.1 update WLAN indicator lamp is always on

After updating from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1 the amber wireless indicator lamp is always on, even if wireless function is off.
The key to turn airplane mode on or off doesn't work.
Wireless is working anyway perfectly and turned on or off with the mouse.
Is there a solution to make it work as before the updating?
Thanks

Satellite A500-14k - HDD LED indicator always blinking

Hi
First sorry for my bad english
I'm french and i recently bought a Toshiba Satellite A500-14k ( http://fr.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/product/Satellite-A500-14K/1072806 )
I've got a little problem with this notebook and i don't know if someone has a solution
The LED indicator of the HDD is constantly flashing (1 blink per second) even in safe mode. I checked some forums and i have learned that there was something to do with the cd /dvd autorun function of the CD/DVD recorder.
If the autorun function is deactivate in windows registry (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servi ces\CDRom and key value changed from 1 to 0) the blinking disappears but i can't access any of my CD or DVD data ( the media are marked as blank). However, audio CD and video DVD are working except that they can't be started automatically.
The same thing happens if the CD/DVD recorder is deactivated in the device manager of the control panel : the led indicator has a normal activity.
I would like if this problem occurs with other owners of this product and if there is a solution to use normally the recorder without this flash
Thanks

I don't have A500 but A300 and I cannot say for sure why this happen and what kind of HDD activity is in progress but what you can try is to remove some Toshiba preinstalled stuff like TEMPRO or preinstalled antivir application.
When the notebook is brand new first days many updates will be installed and in the background is always some activity. Is automatic update disabled?
Try also to remove TEMPRO. This tool is permanent active and search for updates.
Try simply to optimize preinstalled OS and watch carefully if something will change. I do it always after clean OS installation.

T430s no WLAN

Hi all,
I have my T430s with Win 8 Pro since a few weeks and I am very happy with it EXCEPT for one very irritating issue. Since two weeks whenever I turn the machine on, the WLAN symbol in system tray has a red cross by it and there is no WLAN connection. Switching to flightmode and back does not help. I can reactivate WLAN by going to Network and Sharing Center / Change Adapter Settings and then disabling and reenabling the Wifi adapter. I have found no other way to get WLAN going again.
Has anyone else had a similar issue and found a cure for it short of reinstalling Win 8?
Thanks a regards
Rudi

Lenovo K 900 --Battery charge indicator always shows 100 %

A strange issue after firmware upgrade in lenovo K 900 , When I charged to 100 % , the phone always shows 100 % charge . It is not getting updated and after using for 6-7 hrs the phone gets switched off without any notice . Now I can charge again and this time the battery charge indicator shows correctly . but again the same issue is seen if the phone is charged to 100 % .

Let it die all the way down, to recalibrate the battery, and then fully recharge. See if that helps.

OS v2.2 Battery indicator always shows full until device dies.

After I upgraded to version 2.2 of the OS on my iPhone 3G, my battery indicator is always showing 100% charge. After a full day of normal usage, the iPhone just died with a dead battery. I didn't even get the usual warning when the battery was at 20%.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?

That problem has been around for a while. If you now give it a full charge, you will (most likely) have solved the problem. It sort of fixes itself most of the time simply by running the phone down all the way, then recharging all the way.
It calibrates the charge measuring circuit.
Post back if it persists.

ThinkPad W510 HDD LED indicator always on

Hi,
I'm using a ThinkPad W510 but I notice that the HDD light is always on, though there's no significant I/O task.
I remember the HDD light is blinking only when you're doing something with the hard disk, and most of other time, it stays off.
The machine is run with Windows 8. Don't know if there's anything wrong with it. Does anybody have the same situation? \
Thanks alot
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I would suggest adding them back a few at a time, and see when it starts the behavior.

WLAN network always prompts for user name and password...

Hi,
Everytime Airport detects the WLAN of my institution, it prompts "Authenticating to network" and I have to put in my user name and password. Is there any way to store this information (probably in the keychain) so that an automatic login to the WLAN [as in my home network] is possible? The problem is that I can not find any button like "save this password in the keychain" [you can only put in user name and password]. Is it possible that my institution prevents automatic login?
I also tried to create an item in the keychain directly - does not work.
Cheers

Hi,
I agree in that there has to be a prompt for WLAN access. Otherwise just everyone could step by and use the access. But if I have to authenticate once, why should the institution prevent an automatic login for me in the future? Well, okay, if someone steals my notebook and knows my master password... hmm, so there is no way to locally (on my notebook) use some software that automatically puts in my user name and password so that I - maybe - only have to push the "Go/Enter/Access" button?
For example, some institutions use browsers to authenticate and 1Password, but also Safari natively, can automatically fill in the information.
Cheers

WLAN always connected

Hi My N8 WLAN is always conected , how can I turn off the WLAN Wizard ?? Thank you

The short answer is to change the Settings/Connectivity/Settings/Switch to WLAN to Manual, Data Use in home country to Always Ask, Data Use when abroad to Always Ask
These steps will basically cut off automatic internet access but will allow you to start any program that requires internet access and a small screen will pop up and ask if you want to allow access, you press 'allow this time' and you are on the internet.
There are other ways of playing with application settings especially email [which seems to be the main culprit in going on line whenever it can] but the above method will stop indiscriminate internet access by any program in the meantime.

WLAN in E61i

I have observed that the symbol for WLAN active always stays on the top right corner of my mobile. I have tried everything from switching off the WLAN scanning, removing all the access points, restart etc. Does anyone has the same problem. Please note that there are 2 symbols for WLAN,one (looks like the 4 squares) meaning WLAN scanning is set to ON, and the second (lie a small flower) is for availaibility of WLAN network (with or without a lock). I am getting the trouble of getting the small flower always on my mobile.

Ohhhh Buddy
I guess u must have installed BlackBerry Connect software. This flower like Ikon indicated blackberry is installed. Blackberry connect has nothing to whether service is active or no. Just it will be there. Now ur handset must have one extra folder of Blackberry connect so just go in tht and uninstall the software. Keep in mind that u will not be able to use blackberry service till next time u again install it.
Go ahead
Hope this will solve issue if not again reply

Wi-Fi light is always on for Satellite F60/033

Hi There,
I have Qosmio F60/033 which is now out of warranty by about 4 months and recently I have noticed that the Wifi light located at the front of laptop is always on regardless whether the laptop is turned on/off.
One thing I can confirm though when I press FN+F8 key I can turn on or off the wifi but that doesn't turn off the light. So I dont think it is to with the key bind must be something to do with the hardware?
Does anyone here knows about this problem with Qosmio F60/033 model? what could be the issue or how can this be resolved?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
From my knowledge there is no hardware switch which would enabled or disable the WLan so using the Fn + F8 should switch ON/OFF the Wlan indicator.
Did you test if Wlan driver installation or update would solve this indicator issue?
Try this out but you said that Wlan can be enabled and disabled properly and only the LED is ON its annoying but in my personal opinion its not really serious issue so you should not be afraid of this

Satellite P70-A-L1M WiFi indicator stays ON after upgrade to Win 8.1

Hello.
After updating to Windows 8.1 wireless indicator always stays on (red light), no matter if WiFi is actually on or off. When I press f12 key, WiFi goes to Airplane Mode, I have an apropriate message in Windows, everything is ok.
But the LED is on anyway.
In Windows 8 it worked as it should be.
All drivers are up to date.
Is there is any way to resolve it?

Exactly.

Disabled BT separetly. After that disabled WiFi - the result is the same. Tried to disable wifi using f12 button - nothing...May be there should be some kind of BIOS support for this feauture. But there is still no BIOS update for my laptop since its release.
