Hello
> I am not happy with my integrated Realtek wireless card. Connection quality is not good.
I cant imagine that you are not satisfied with the connection quality
I also use Satellite A660 for October 2010 and everything is great! :) This is a wonderful piece of hardware without any problems and great build quality.
The WLAN connectivity is good and the same with other notebooks (I also have Realtek WLAN card). I only noticed that WLAN connection is a little bit slower in Eco mode so I have disabled the WLAN power saving function in Eco mode and now the problem is solved. Furthermore I have installed newest WLAN driver of offical Toshiba page..
So I would recommend disabling the WLAN power saving and updating the WLAN driver.
Of course you can use an external USB adapter but I think internal WLAN is more comfortable so I would try it with driver update firstly. ;)

Apple Wireless Card Not Working

I just removed an Apple Wireless card from a PowerBook Tit. laptop and plugged it into my QuickSilver 733, re-installed the OS, and I can not get the coputer to recognize the wireless card.
Now, this is the older wireless card not the extreme, and I have used one of these cards in the past for one of these computers and worked fine, but can not get it to pickup this time.
I know the card is good, was in use up until it was removed from the PB yesterday.
Tried to add the wireless device in the Network panel, but could not see the card.
Any ideas???
Thanks,
Carter

I have a Quicksilver 2002 (Dual 1-GHZ) and my internal airport card just started acting flakey. It drops the connection and then re-acquires the network, sometimes a couple of times a minute. Sometimes the only way to get the wireless signal is to turn AirPort off and on agian on the computer. Then it will work fine for days. I bought this PowerMac new just before MacWorld in 2002 (yeah, right before the MDD model was introduced - brilliant timing on my part, as usual) and haven't had a lick of trouble with it ever. I also have a new MacBook with built-in AirPort Extreme and I have no trouble with my wireless signal on that computer, so it has to be the PowerMac. Are there any known issues I'm missing?

Wireless Card not working WIFI 5300

Hi, I just bought state of art T400 yesterday, and did not even try to work on Visa Business and recovered XP Pro with the provided recovery CD. All drivers were installed on recovery, except, wireless LAN and Modem. I tried downloading and installing all wireless LAN drivers from lenovo.com and Intel, but it did not work. did any one face such a problem. the device manager does not show any wireless card listed even after multiple installs and rebooting. Thus, updated windows, also SP3, and still the same. Please help...

Hi,
I'd suggest the following:
Make sure that the hardware RF kill switch is to the right, so that the WiFi radio is enabled.
Remove whatever WiFi drivers you've installed.
Download and install ThinkVantage System Update and run it. It should download and install the correct WiFi driver for your ThinkPad.
Please post back with whether that solves your problem.
Good luck!

Airport Wireless Card not connecting to ABS

I updated my ABS firmware a few weeks back when many people did and had issues with the update, no wireless connection. I rolled back to the previous ABS firmware version with no luck. I went thru several hard resets and go nothing. So I just went ahead and updated to the current ABS firmware version. I have no problem using the internet over the lan and other computers can connect wirelessly, but the wireless on the G4 Ti won't connect. It shows and error window. I thought the wireless card went dead, but it works just fine on other wireless networks. Any thoughts would be great.
Powerbook G4 Ti OS X 10.4

ok i'm back again. so now i'm on to the internet but my connection is really weak, 1 bar. i talked to the guy who installed the wireless router and he said that its because the aerial is in the base and has to receive the signal through my desk. but he also said that he didn't know much about Mac's. so i'm not to sure he knows what he's talking about. is there any other reason why i'm getting a weak connection. i tried moving my mac around but that did not help.
Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Sprint Wireless Card Not Working in iMac

A friend of mine recently got a Sierra Wireless 598U USB card (Sprint service) for her iMac G5 but she is unable to get the iMac to recognize the card.
First I should say that I am a Windows person and I know almost nothing about Mac OS but I'm trying to help her.
She has Mac OS v10.4.11 which according to what I've seen online should support this wireless card. Here's what I can tell you:
1. We know for sure that the Sierra card is OK because it works in other PCs (all Windows machines).
2. When connected to her iMac the Sierra card is receiving power. The LEDs on it light up.
3. When the Sierra card was first connected to her iMac the software installation process started automatically and seemed to complete normally (not that I know what normal is on a Mac).
4. When we click the Sierra "Smart View" icon the program starts and displays a message saying "No wireless device detected." And that is where we are stuck. Any suggestions appreciated.
Again, I know very little about Mac OS so please explain anything that a Windows person might not know. Thanks!
Peter

My friend did contact Sprint support and they were unable to fix the problem.
I really do think the problem is in the iMac not the Sierra card. I may be wrong but that's what my gut says given that the card works perfectly in other PCs.
If this were a Windows PC I would know where to look to find and fix the problem but I know almost nothing about Mac OS. Can you give me any suggestions on where to look in the OS to try to narrow down the cause of the problem?

Satellite 2450-101: Wireless Card not found

Hello: I seem to be unable to make my internal wireless card working on this model. After reading few postings, i am not even sure if my model has a wireless card, altough I was told it does and reading manuals and simply observing the laptop, it seems so.
Can anyone confirm if this model (bought in Spain) has wireless card and how to set it up please? The little light next to the switch is dark, I have tried all possible in terms driver setup etc.
Thanks
Hynek

Hello
This unit is WiFi ready and please check in device manager if the wireless card is listed there. You can find it under network adapters.
Usually all notebook models with WiFi card have a WiFi label on the bottom side. Check it.

Verizon Wireless installer for a wireless card not working. Help?

I have this wireless card from Verizon Wireless that lets me use internet anywhere i want. Its called the USB727 manufactured by Novatel Wireless. Bundled with this toy came a disc with the installer. When i tried to pop it into my iBook running OS X 10.4.11 it wouldn't begin the auto run. When I clicked the disc on my desktop i was given a .dmg file instead of the normal Verizon logo. When i opened it i was given two options the user manual and the actual installer. The installer logo was a piece of paper instead of the normal open-cardboard box. When i clicked it I'm given a window with the title folder actions setup, the setup doesn't show up.

Hi Eddie, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Not sure why it looks like that, I'd try this...
Not certain, but this can fix myriad problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then reboot & try to install.
Found this...
The main thing is, you need to install the VZaccessmonitor to get the right drivers, but after that you can connect through Internet Connect, as if it twere a regular modem. If you open internet connect, or the system prefs while configuring and setting up initially with the VZaccessmonitor, it will cause the repeating dialogues. I had to uninstall, make sure not to open system prefs while the VZ install ran, and then reboot--and the install had produced a new location for me.

Wireless Card Not working

i have a satellite l305d-s5914. when i turn on the wireless internet the light doesn't turn on and it doesn't pick up any signal. the diagnostics said it doesn't have the right drivers but another test said it did. any help would be appreciated. thanks.

The wireless card should be there, but if the drivers are not installed or the wireless antenna switch is not on, you're not going to connect wirelessly. Go to Control Panel. Click on Device Manager. Click on the icon just to the left of Network Adaptors. You should see both the wired and wireless network adaptors. No red 'X's, yellow '?' or anything on the wireless card. If the wireless card is not there, Windows is not seeing. And if there is a red 'X' , the wireless card has been disabled. And the yellow '?' means that the wrong driver was installed.
You can also disable the wireless card and turn off the wireless antenna by doing an FN-F8 key combination. The same key combination will toggle the wireless on too. With the wireless antenna switch in the on position, do the FN-F8 combination to get the wireless LED back on. Normally that LED is an orange/amber.

Wireless card not "on" ?

Hello,
So far this forum has been good to me, so I'm hoping that someone might be able to help me out with another problem I've recently encountered.
I am currently trying to set up my Wireless card which is a Belkin F5D7000 card that uses the rt2500 chipset (which there are drivers for through Ralink) and though I have been able to install the drivers alright, I didn't notice until recently that the lights on the back of the card are out and the card doesn't seem to be "active" at all.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what may be causing this to happen? The card does show up on lspci, but only as "Network controller: unknown device" (although I know that it is the card because of the identification codes).
Thanks!
-Locri

What a co-incidence, I installed Belkin wlan on my Arch/XP dual-boot system a few days ago!....
I'm running the Windows drivers on Arch using ndiswrapper... have you got this bit working yet? You need the rt2500 drivers which you can download or you can find them on your windows installation in program files/belkin.... (you need the .inf and .sys files)
Another issue I've had is I can't get the wlan working on linux with WEP encryption enabled but it works ok on XP. I'm using mac-address locking for security at moment.
If you can be more specific about what your having a problem with I'll try to help (but a bit later when I get back to my home PC!)

Yoga 2 Pro - Wireless Card not Detected by Windows 8.1

Hi, Just got a refurbished Yoga 2 Pro. The first time I started the system up, the wireless showed up and I connected to my local WLAN. However, few minutes later the wireless dropped out. The issue was that Windows stopped detecting the card. Not showing in the device manager. Strange enough the bluetoth was working fine. The card is an Intel 7260NGW. I thought it was the card, so I replaced it with a new Intel AC7260NGW. The same result. I've removed & reinstalled all drivers including the ones from the Intel website. I've formatted and installed a fresh version of windows 8.1 and reinstalled all drivers again. Not to avail. Now running with an USB wireless adapter. Any clue what's going on? Thanks in advance guys Daniel

OMG, I was just about to buy a new wireless card because I have the same problem.
Some weeks ago my wireless adapter disappeared, the card disappeared altogether even from Device manager, after I installed a new bluetooth driver and after I was connecting to my phone 3G via USB cable.
But then it came back after I left the laptop shut down and unplugged for a whole night. It worked for a few hours and after closing the lid and opening it again wireless adapter was gone again, never to come back.
I tried changing drivers, holding the power button for 20 sec to hard reset the laptop, fresh install of Windows, load BIOS defaults, and even installing Windows 10 in VHD (dual boot) and see if it will reappear there.Always the same - the wireless adapter doesn't exist any more.
However, buetooth has been working without problems, which I find strange.
I read online about similar situations, and all answers point that the wireless card stopped working and needs to be replaced.
But @Papelinas - you say you even bought and installed a new wireless card and STILL have the same problem???I can't believe that something in motherboard got damaged and that only wifi doesn't work...
I've had my Y2P for 6 months, and I don't really have time to send the laptop for repair for some time, I'm using it...
I guess I'll still try to buy a new card, and just hope the wireless adapter will reappear...

Fastmac wireless card not responding

Hi all,
I just purchased an 802.11n wireless card for my Mac Pro from FastMac. I've got a 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon machine and am running OS 10.5.8
I used these online instructions to install it. The admin at FastMac emailed and asked me to send the 'hardware overview' info off my System Profiler so that they would be sure to send me the correct card. The card had 3 antennae terminals marked 0, 1 and 2. There were 3 antennae wires in the Mac Pro marked 1, 2, and 3. I hooked wire 1 to terminal 1, wire 2 to terminal 2 and wire 3 to terminal 0. Not sure if this was correct or not. After reboot, I cannot get the card to recognize my airport extreme base station (fig 1). In my network preferences, I disconnected my ethernet connection and made appletalk active in the airport network (fig 2).
If one of the three antennae wires is not seated correctly on the card, would that cause a problem?
I'm kinda stumped.

Thanks in advance for any input.

Airport wireless card not installed

Hi everybody, just wondering if anyone has suffered the same problem as i have...any help would be appreciated.
Basically, late 2007 120GB white macbook, bought new. i also run windows xp on it in bootcamp.
a few months ago the laptop started freezing up completely in both OSX and XP and would need a hard restart, on restart there would be no recognition of airport or wireless internet. when looking at airport in OS X it would say that there is no wireless card installed.
however, after a few restarts and resetting the PRAM, the wireless would cough back into life for a bit before freezing completely again and the same process encountered.
for about a month now though there seems to be no way of getting recognition of a wireless card at all, but the laptop is not freezing anymore.
any one had this problem and managed to resolve it?
ive had a bit of a poke around using google but havent really found out much about it....
just to complicate matters, my OS X disks that came with the macbook cant be recognised by it! (with no scratches or marks on them) but my OSX snow leopard disks that came with my 2010 imac do. ive done the system analysis thing with them and nothing showing.
cheers for any help.

Take it in for repair. You may not be able to use the installer discs that came with your iMac to reinstall OS X on the MB because the OEM discs are usually machine dependent. Also, you cannot install on more than one CPU at a time. It would violate your software license to install from the same installer DVD on two machines.

[SOLVED] Wireless card not detected after upgrade

After running a pacman update today, my wireless card is no longer being detected. 'ip link' and 'iw dev' show no sign of it. My ethernet port is detected just fine.
I downgraded linux and systemd with no luck, thinking that they were the most likely culprits. Also, I dealt with the new /etc/passwd.pacnew and /etc/group.pacnew files created by the filesystem upgrade and ran the syslinux-install_update script to go along with the new version of syslinux. Besides a new mirrorlist, these were the only special cases pacman warned about when upgrading.

I'll ask the standard issue questions. Did you perform a partial upgrade? If so, perform a pacman -Syu and try again.
Also, is the running kernel the same kernel that is installed? Compare the versions provided by uname -a and pacman -Qi linux and ensure they are exactly they are exactly the same revision.

HPE-475a wireless card not detecting networks

For the last few months, every now and again, my computer would start up but be unable to detect any wireless networks. It seemed that simply shutting it back down for an hour or so would magically resolve it. Some research at the time suggested that it was unable to detect a driver for some reason.
However, today, several hours of the computer being off has not resolved the issue, and the device manager suggests that the card is working fine, without any driver troubles. Perhaps I am looking at the wrong thing.
I have been able to connect using an old wireless dongle, but I don't want that to be the permanent solution.
What can I do to better diagnose and resolve the issue? I've searched a bit but couldn't find anything which seemed specific to this situation.
Product name: HPE-475a
Product number: BU082AA#ABG
Operating system: Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1
Error messages: None.
Recent changes: None.
Troubleshooting performed: Attempted to "Diagnose" through Network Connections. It suggested to check the router. The router is fine, multiple other devices are able to connect. Diagnostics then says it cannot resolve the connectivity issue.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
If WIFI was working fine using the current router then the mixed mode setting is not the problem.
If Device Manager shows no errors and you cannot connect using wireless then the WIFI adapter card is, most likely, the problem.
Good to hear you have an extended warranty.
Contact HP Support.

X201 Wireless Card not detectable (Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 AGN) (Windows 7 64 bit)

Hey!
I have a slight problem here.
We have 5 machines that got shipped with Windows 7 32 bit versions for two weeks ago, I tested all of them to make sure nothing was defect or such things but everything was fine (The wireless network card was clearly visible in device manager).
For two days ago, we recived recovery discs to upgrade these machines to 64 bit versions.
After installing it on 2 computers that was previously 32 bit versions, I am not able to detect the wireless network card anymore.
I have used System Update to try and find it but to no avail.
The card itself is not even detected by Device Manager (No unkown device or anything either, it have simply dissapeared).
I do know the card is present there so I downloaded two different drivers (1 from Lenovo homepage and another one from a driver update tool) (13.1.1.1 and 13.2.0.30).
I made a manual search and installed the drivers and the card itself by using "Add Legacy hardware" in device manager and picked the card.
It is now detectable in Device Manager but with following error code:
"The device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device (Code 31).
I have tested both versions but same error code persists, System Update won't help either since it says that there are no new updates for this machine (same thing with Windows Update).
The card was functioning properly in 32 bit version but decided to crap out when upgrading to 64 bit, have there been frequent problems regarding wireless networking with 64 bit?

We have the same problem with 6 new X201 machines preloaded with Win 7 32bit
After reloading the X201 with the Win 7 64bit recovery media the wireless network card disappears.
You learn to disassemble the laptop quickly to get to the CMOS battery because thats the olution I found
Disconnect the CMOS battery to reset BIOS settings completely and the network card appears in windows again.
Even when we tried the same recovery media on a T500 to test it, the same happened. The CMOS battery solution got the WLAN card working again.
I have reported this to Lenovo but havent heard from them yet.
