Wireless not working after format on Satellite L10.

Dear All,
I have formatted my Satellite laptop, and after downloading all the drivers needed, there is still a network adapter not recognised under System Devices in Windows XP. The LAN driver and the wireless LAN driver were both installed from their exe's. Everything else seems to be working perfectly, apart from my wireless... Any ideas ? What can I try ?
Thanks in advance,
Daffy

You must install Vista! Thats all!

Glide pad will not work after formatting g60-630ca

Can somebody help? my glide pad will not work after downgrading to xp. The pad works itself for the mouse but then the scrolls on the side will not. Please help...

You need the driver. It is a Synaptics Touchpad and you can use this driver:
Synaptics
Here is a link to the General XP Downgrade guide which has a link to all the drivers you need under "Moderate models:
XP Guide
The touchpad is hard because Windows does load a basic driver so it does not appear with an error in Device Manager, but the "real" driver is needed for advanced features like scrolling. Be sure you have all the needed Xp drivers, by the way.

Wireless not working after suspend (madwifi)

Hi there
I successfully converted from Vista to Archlinux! Everything's working fine (yep, I'm a bit proud as this my second try at linux ) except that after I suspend with powersave my wlan is not working anymore. I've also tried to unload the ath_pci module and restart the network in /etc/powersave/sleep but that doesn't seem to work.
I guess it has something to do with the network deamon because when I try to restart my network manually it says that dhcpcd is already running for ath0... Oh, and also the iwconfig for ath0 seems to be perfectly correct after suspend...
Here's the network part of my rc.conf:
lo="lo 127.0.0.1"
eth0="dhcp"
ath0="dhcp"
wlan_ath0="ath0 essid FeelGood key s:******"
WLAN_INTERFACES=(ath0)
INTERFACES=(lo !eth0 ath0)
Any ideas? Help would be appreciated

Well, maybe you already know this, but: ath_pci (the madwifi driver) is among blacklisted modules (/etc/hibernate/blacklisted-modules), so it gets unloaded during the suspend process. That screws up whatever wireless connection you might have had before suspending. Now if you have the option LoadModules auto in /etc/hibernate/common.conf, it should get loaded after resuming - but that of course doesn't renew the connection. So that I do is I have a short script that calls /etc/rc.d/network restart, and I run it manually after suspending to renew the connections.
BTW, I have this in /etc/hibernate/common.conf:
UnloadBlacklistedModules yes
LoadModules auto
EDIT: Eh, B managed to post before I finished writing this :)

WRT54G wireless not working after upgrading to windows vista, please help

Hello everyone....
I have a few problems. I upgraded to Windows Vista and cant seem to get my wireless internet working. My router is WRT54G wireless-g broadband router. Ever since I upgraded Vista my xbox 360 will not connect.
I just bought a new wireless web camera and that does not work either because the wireless is not working.
Any suggestions on what I should do to solve this issue?
I noticed when I goto 192.168.1.1 my firmware version is Firmware Version: v3.03.9 does that have anything to do with it? Is there a more up-to-date version that will help?
Hope to hear from someone.

I have the same problem, and so does my son, he has a toshiba satellite new laptop and I have an acer new laptop, both have Vista on them, and my wife has XP and has no problem getting on teh router, but i have this problem everyday.
Eventually it will all of a sudden show up and connect and start working, then if you laeave your computer in standby movde overnight, it will still work in the morning, but if you shut down comeplety you will lose the connection for who knows how long. what is the fix Linksys?

Wireless not working after VMware kit installation

After installing VMWare kit, my wireless network card is not working - any clues?

there is something very wierd here. Let me recap what I KNOW is happening.
1) I can connect to WAP at boot no problem. This is true 100%
2) After sleep systems fails 100% time from 5:30 AM to 10:00PM (not sure why)
3) There have been no changes to WAP (confirmed using checksums)
4) This started immediately after 10.4.10 install.
What I have done that does NOT work
1) Repair disk perms (no errors)
2) Repair keychain (no errors)
3) Remove Parallels (expired Demo)
4) Remove/recreate network
5) Run commands indicated in other replies
What I have done that showed hope
1) If I create a new location I can use that location to recover from exactly 1 sleep. Subsequent sleeps fail for that location. once all locations are used a reboot is required.
2) Issued ipconfig setverbose 1 and watched logs. It seems that the Mac never Sees the incoming packets. I can rule out WAP issues as the Dell d620 sitting right next to the Mac is indicating packet reception at 100% (and I am only 10ft from WAP with direct line of sight).
3) issued ipconfig getpacket en1 in both working and non-working states. Woring stated returns expecte DHCP response from server. non-working state returns nothing. as in not even a blank line.
So as I see it the Mac does not appear to be reenabling the reciever post sleep. Changing locations seems to re-init the airport card but only once (why once?) enough to get it working. What I don't understand is where in software land I would even start to look. I find it hard to believe that there is a coincidental sync between an OS update and a hardware failure on a 4 week old machine.

Certain keys not working after formatting......

I recently formatted my laptop and reinstalled Windows XP and all the drivers.
Everything is fine except 2-3 keyboard buttons are not working (@ and \ keys are not coming). It is due to wrong/missing driver or some other setting is there?
Do laptops need key board drivers? I installed all the drivers I had in the bundle.
Any ideas what it could be for Compaq C794wu? (XP)

NOMAD MuVo not working after formating with Wind

Hi,
Yesterday, I formated my NOMAD MuVo player with windows (FAT32) and now it only works as a USB key. When I press on the play button the light turns to red and there's no sound.
I have neither the firware nor the drivers and when I try to install the firware it does not work (the software can't find the player that is plugged into the USB port).
Could someone please help me?
Thanks.

Have you followed the instructions on reloading the firmware at the download page? Often for MuVos there is a special procedure to follow (click "show details" next to the firmware download link).
Formatting as FAT32 can be a bad idea as some players don't recognise the file system.

Satellite C660-13R - Wireless and Ethernet do not work after format

Hello there,
I just formatted my laptop and I only get Internet connection with a usb wireless antenna...
Neither ethernet, nor wireless seem to work. Before the format it worked fine.
Here is the product
http://www.toshiba.co.uk/discontinued-products/satellite-c660-13r/
Please help with a solution...
Should I consider death of the adapter and stop trying?

Ok you have formatted your laptop but we don't know what have you installed and which OS version do you use.
As I can see in notebook specification your notebook was delivered with preinstalled Windows 7. This original version (recovery image) contains all necessary drivers and every hardware component is installed and configured properly so everything should work well.
It is very important to know what have you installed and what is teh status of communication devices like LAN and WLAN cards. If both devices are installed properly LAN should work without any limitation but WLAN card must be enabled and I don't see the reason why you should not be able to connect your machine using WLAN connection.
If possible post some detailed info about preinstalled OS version and hardware status.

My ipad2 wireless not working after the update to ios 6.1.3, what can I do?

Hi, My Ipad2 could not connect again with the wireless after updated to ios 6.1.3. Pls what can I do?

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Well, the above two links have the problem similar to mine but not exactly. In first one there is a problem with network manager - that it is unable to restart after coming from sleep mode while that is not a problem in my case and I tried all the solutions provided in the second link, but didn't work.
What I figured is when I execute '#pm-suspend' and then close the lid. Then, after I open the lid I wireless works fine. 'pm-suspend' is not invoked if I close the lid. So I needed to invoke the above command when an acpi event is generated when I close the lid. So here is what I added in the /etc/acpi/handler.sh file
button/lid)
case "$3" in
close)
(sudo /usr/sbin/pm-suspend) #added
open)
This works fine for now. Still, I don't know why this solution works - Why executing pm-suspend solves my problem?

Wireless not working after 10.0.2 install

This is the 3rd time I've had to type all this info!!
Since 10.0.2 install, wireless will not hook up to wireless connection it has hooked up to all times prior to this update.
Using a Toshiba Satellite L305-55918 Laptop w/MS Vista
In my opinion, all I need to do is DL a previous version of FF & be on my way, and just wait for future updates to work as before.
A very frustrated user here!

Matt,
Thanks for your help & apologies for multiple entries. I won't be able to validate the "fix" until the next time I go into town. I live in the mountains & use the wireless at a coffee shop in town, every couple of days. Then I'll know if the "fix" did in fact worked.
Thanks again for your efforts to help me.

SB wow wireless not working after firmware upgrade

Hello,
In the beginning of this year I bougth a pair of Sound Blaster World of warcraft wireless headset. And there have been alot of trouble with them, I've been using the latest software but not the latest firmware ever since then.
And every now and then my mic stop to work, I could hear sound but the mic was totally dead, and all of a sudden, of no logical reason the mic started to work agian.
So I thought a firmware upgrade could make them work better, but no, i upgrade firmware from .9.x to .0.x.
And guess what happens? Nothing works no, not the sound, not the mic, the USB trasmitter cant even sync with the headset anymore.
Ive tried a million things now, some of them are:
. Just tried to reinstall it, didnt work
2. Tried to install it in winxpsp3 compability mode, didnt work.
3. Tried to clear all temp-folder (the temp-folder under c:\windows\temp and the user-temp) after Ive uninstalled it, didnt work.
Im running on Windows 7 Professional x64 edition.
What could cause this? I havnt tried to install them on a XP-computer yet tho. But I have to get them work in Win7, since i cant downgrade just because of a headset, huh?
Thanks,
Johan

Ok, please redirect me to a tecnical supportpage where I can find potential solutions,
- and instructions how I do for example a downgrade of firmware?

[SOLVED] wireless not working after -Syu upgrade

Hi everyone,
after an upgrade today (though it's been awhile so unfortunately it was a lot of upgrades), Arch doesn't even seem to recognize my wireless card exists anymore. If I type ifconfig, it only shows
eth0 Ethernet ...
lo ...
whereas before eth1 existed as my wireless.
Thanks for any help!
Edit: I should mention that I normally used wicd. I couldn't seem to get the standard network or networkmanager to work either, though, as no wireless device exists.

I had a similar problem after the kernel upgrade with my Broadcom BCM4312 wireless card (on a Lenovo S10-2 netbook). What worked for me was recompiling and reinstalling the driver in AUR: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=19514, using the little hack suggested in the comments at the AUR package: in the file include/linuxver.h I changed the line
#include <linux/autoconf.h>
to
#include <generated/autoconf.h>
(If you just try to build the package without this change it won't work).
It worked perfectly afterwards (I'm using networkmanager, not wicd, but this shouldn't be a problem).
Of course, the solution depends on your own wireless card, so more details might help.
