Wireless LAN driver upgrade for Portege A100

My wireless LAN is Atheros AR 5001X+. I keep receiving upgrade notification from Toshiba for Intel Pro Wireless XXXX.
Can anyone help how to identify wich Intel driver I have to use for my system (Portege A100 with XP Pro)?
Many thanks

Hi Max
I wonder why you want to update the Intel WLan card driver.
According to your first message you use Atheros AR 5001X+ WLan card and not Intel WLan card. Please dont mix the Intel cards with Atheros cards.
Ps: if you want to check your Wlan card driver version you have to go to the device manager.
There you have to select the WLan card and access the properties (right click).

  • Incompatible Config Free and Wireless LAN driver/manager

    Hi,
    The *ConfigFree 5.90.05AB*, available in the Satellite MCE A100-498 download drivers area, is incompatible with the wireless lan manager *Intel PROSet Utility 12.4.0.0.3* (driver *Intel PRO/Wireless 3945/4965/5100/5300 12.4.0.21.1*), also available in the same place.
    When both installed, the *Conectivity Doctor* and *Profiles* tool returns the error "+cfmain.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience+".
    Is there any other version of ConfigFree that works with this wireless lan driver/manager version? Will Toshiba release another ConfigFree version?
    Best regards,
    FilipeSilva

    You can install what you want but please follow the exact installations order .
    It is very important.
    All offered drivers, tools and utilities are tested and I cannot imagine Toshiba will offer some new version for 3 years old notebooks.

  • Lenovo Yoga 13 Downgrade to Windows 7 Wireless Lan Driver & USB3.0 Driver

    Hey guys,
    I have purchased the Yoga 13 in U.A.E in last Feb. with AED4,999.00
    But some programms does not work with Windows 8. So I am using Windows7 with multi-boot.
    Guess you guys also have such problem.. eventually finding out the WIFI Driver & USB3.0 Driver.
    Now, I have succeeded in installing both of them.
    1. Wireless Lan Driver : Realtek RTL8723A Wireless LAN 802.11n USB 2.0 Network Adapter.
       The way I found this driver is... Download all the REALTEK driver in a designated folder.. of course uncompressed.
       And then using the contraol panel... updated the driver with the designated folder.
       Now it is working very well.
    2. USB3.0 Driver
      It was an easy game. I just have downloaded thee Intel USB3.0 Driver for Windows7... you could find it through google with easy.
      And just installed it. It works very well.
    => You could download the file at http://me2.do/xKBVnWo3

  • Satellite L300-15V - The system cannot install Wireless LAN driver

    After installed all drivers for that machine, the system shows that it need to install Wireless LAN driver, but i did!!! What's going on? Help! I can't make wireless net home!!!!!!

    I assume you have tried to install the Realtek WLan driver. Is it right?
    Go to this Toshiba WLan driver page:
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/
    and check if you can install the Atheros Wireless LAN driver or the Intel PRO/Wireless 3945/4965/5100/5300 driver.

  • What should I download as the wireless LAN driver/adapter

     When I search for a wireless LAN driver in the hp site there are 8 or more wireless LAN drivers/adapters under different names. I do not know what exactly I need. please help me. I downloaded Mediatek 802.11wireless LAN adapter driver but I couldn't connect to any other laptop's wifi hotspot. Sometimes it says "Connecting to the connecting to the network is taking longer than usual".Because of this I can not play LAN games. I know the connection is limited but connecting to the network should be fast and there should not be any problem with it.

    Hi there ,  Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome! This is a great site to get answers and ask questions.  I understand that you are looking to find out which Wireless LAN driver you should download for your Wireless Adapter. If you look under your device manager, what does it say under Network Adapters ?  You can right click on the Network Adapter it lists and click Update Driver Software right there. Do you have any exclamations marks or red x's? Your could also use the HP Support Assistant to make sure that all of your updates have been done. That would put the proper driver in also.  If you want to use the HP Pavilion 15-n240tx Notebook PC Driver Webpage, all you have to do is find out what the name of your Network Adapter is in your Device Manager. (Picture above) Please follow these provided troubleshooting steps, re-post and let me know how everything went. Thank you! Have a great day!

  • Satellite C55-A5105 Wi-Fi is painfully slow, wireless LAN driver won't install

    I've been bouncing around for solution on this issue of C55-A's and 8.1 having problems with slow Wi-Fi, and attempted to do the driver update. However, after downloading an extracting to it's own folder on my Desktop, I get to a point where it reads it cannot locate file C:\Users\<my username>\Desktop\<folder name>\Win8164\REALTEK Wirless LAN Driver.msi. If I retry, I get a 1706 error, no valid source could be found for product REALTEK Wireless LAN driver. I'm pretty certain I'm download the correct driver. I have run a check from Device Manager to see if the latest driver is installed, and I'm being told yes, so I can't figure out why speed is so slow still. This is my wife's laptop and it's barely used since we got in May, so we are a bit behind on Windows updates. Not sure that has anything to do with it. I've also disabled the Wireless card from being able to be powered down, another tip I found in this forum.

    Hi Peter.  I stumbled on this site and downloaded the driver they link to, followed their instructions, and see no improvement. I'm trying to break up the Windows Update downloads, and 84MB is a snail's pace. Do you have any info on what driver i should be updating exactly, and where that file may be?

    I dont understand what your problem is. I have checked Toshiba WLAN portal on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/?page=downloads and driver can be downloaded.
    Can you please test it again?

  • Wireless LAN driver can't load after BIOS update NB550D

    Hi
    I have a new NB550D and have jst installed the recommended BIOS update. Now the Wireless LAN driver can't load (error code 31).
    I tried installing the lestest driver off the Toshiba website but it still can't be loaded by Windows...
    Everything was fine before this! Any ideas?

    > In the Device Manager the Atheros Wireless is shown
    This means that the Wlan driver was installed properly and the issue could be related to configuration between Wlan card and Wlan router.
    You should check if the notebook can connect to Wlan router without the usage of any encryption settings.
    Disable the WEP/WPA encryption and test the connectivity. Of course this should be done only for test attempts.
    Are you sure that the Wlan is enabled? Enable this using FN + F8

  • Need help picking the correct hard drive upgrade for my MBP

    I need help picking the correct/best hard drive upgrade for my MBP. It is the 15" 2GHz Core Duo. Came with a spacious 90GB drive.
    Suggestions and recommendations very appreciated.

    It will take almost any 2.5 inch sata drive.
    Take a look at www.newegg.com and www.macsales.com to see what's out there and how much it costs.
    Toshiba have a 320gb 2,.5 inch drive in the works, but it's not quite out yet and will be expensive.
    I'll start you off..

  • Windows XP LAN driver needed for my Satellite A100-784

    I bought Satellite A100-784 with Windows Vista. I've removed Vista and installed Windows XP (taken from other non-Toshiba notebook)) and then SP2. Now I can't use the internet because there's no LAN driver. The drivers downloaded from this Toshiba site don't work.
    Any solution for me? I expect other problems to appear soon, with the sound and so on. Isn't there any pack of drivers for this model with WinXP?
    (I'd be very happy to get a quick restore disk with Windows XP in English but customer support won't provide any.)

    Hi
    Your A100 unit belongs to the PSAANE series.
    Toshiba European website provides two different XP Intel Lan driver versions:
    1. Intel LAN driver 8.0.43.0
    2. Intel LAN driver 9.2.24
    The first one 8.0.43.0 was designed for LAN Pro100 and the other 9.2.24 for LAN Pro1000
    Additionally I would recommend following the guidelines described in the installation instruction! The drivers must be installed in the right order.
    Please also take a look into another thread about the same theme:

  • Wireless LAN Driver for Equium A210-1AS

    Hi
    The Toshiba TEMPO system alerted me to a Wireless LAN Vista driver update for my Equium A210-1AS. I've downloaded it, but it's an Atheros driver, whereas the wireless connection properties show the wireless device to be a Realtek RTL8187B device, driver RTL8187B.sys.
    It's not exactly obvious why an Atheros driver would be relevant.
    Any suggestions?

    Reverse the Atheros WLan driver installation and use the preinstalled one.
    I agree with Mores. Dont update anything if your notebook runs great.
    By the way; some A210 notebook were equipped with the Atheros WLan card and therefore you have received such update.
    I think you should take a look firstly on your notebook before doing any updates

  • Need help installing Intel Lan Driver on a Satellite A100-011

    I have bought Toshiba Satellite A100-011 notebook with Windows Vista. Now I downgraded the os to Windows XP. The problem is how to install Intel Lan Driver. I would really appreciate any help, because there is no .exe file and I have no idea, what to do with those files.

    Hi buddy,
    the files which are in the zip file are really the drivers but you have to install them manually which means you must go to the device manager, search for the LAN device which probably should have a exclamation mark and then right-click on it. After clicking a wizard should appear which leads you trough the installation process. When the wizard asks for drivers (if not already automatically found) then point on the folder where the driver files are located.
    Then everything should be fine. :)
    Greetings

  • Hard Drive Upgrade for G5

    Hi,
    I am posting a new topic about G5 Hard Drives. Basically I am looking to upgrade my 120GB Seagate HD inside of my Power Mac G5. I am upgrading for two primary reasons. First, I need more storage, and second the hard drive I am using is unnaturally loud. I realized this weekend how loud it really was when I was using my friend's new iMac. Not once did I hear the drive in the iMac. It is hard to concentrate at times using my G5. So basically I am asking for advice that anyone can give me regarding SATA hard drives for a G5? Is there something I can do to reduce the amount of noise coming from my current hard drive? And is there a specific brand of hard drive that I should look into buying, or are all modern hard drives whisper quiet?
    Thanks,
    Tyler

    Hi-
    The Seagates were always the quietest drives on the market. But, the Western Digital Green Power 750gb drive is currently rated as the quietest drive by SilentPC Review. I have found their advice invaluable for upgrade choices that I have made in the past.
    As well, the WD GP 750gb drive is a top rated drive by Storage Reviews, and has been reported very favorably by G5 users within these forums. There is also a 1tb version.
    As for your current noisy drive- if the sound is metal on metal, that can't be good, though the drive would already be in failure if such occurred. The seek sound, the head actuator movement, is probably what you are hearing. "Creaking" is a good word to describe head actuator movement sounds. Mounting methods can have an effect on the acoustics. If a mount is loose, a sound can be accentuated.
    Check your current drive with Disk Utility. Insure that S.M.A.R.T. status is still supported and make sure DU can verify the disk.
