WLAN adapter doesn't work on my Satellite A200

Hi,
My WLAN adapter doesn't work under Vista. If I press FN + F8 nothing happens. The wireless-communication is still offline.
What can I do?
Details:
Typ: Atheros AR5008X Version: 7.2.0.164
Notebook Satellite 200
PSAE6E
Please help me!
Thx in advance!
Phil

BIOS bug? I dont think so
Firstly you should ensure that this is not a hardware issue. In such case insert the Toshiba Recovery CD and reinstall the OS on this unit. This will set the notebook to the factory settings. Note; this would format the whole HDD.
After new installation, you have to enable the WLan switch at the notebooks side and then you could use the button switch FN+F8 to select the WLan.
I presume you have already configured your Wlan router. So the same settings like SSID, WLan encryption, etc must be set on the notebook too.

    Hi Auracles1,
    Here's a pretty discussion regarding wireless printing with this device and a Mac.

    I have a similar OfficeJet and it was a multi-step process. (1) Install printer drivers on the machine, (2) Add the printer queue in print & fax, (3) Run the "setup wizard" from the disc for wireless printing.

  • Satellite L500-20X - WLAN switch doesn't work after Windows 8 Upgrade

    Hello,
    I have updatet my Toshiba Satellite L500-20X to Windows 8.
    Unfortunately, since this update my WLAN Switch no longer works. All function keys work to F7, only F8 (WLAN switch) and F9 (touchpad) no longer work.
    What can I do?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kind regards
    Klaus

    Satellite L500 is not Win 8 upgrade supported so I think the problem is a missing driver or software
    As far as I know in order to use the FN buttons the Value Added Package for Win 8 needs to be installed.
    Check other driver area for Toshiba notebook series supporting the Win 8.
    Maybe you could use the VAP released for other series.

  • G510 Windows 7 WLAN driver doesn't work

    My G510 came with Windows 8.1 pre-installed. I didn't want that, so I installed Windows 7 instead. After that, I downloaded this driver (WLAN Driver (Atheros, Broadcom, Realtek) for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit) - Lenovo G410, G510) using a different computer. I copied the driver to a USB thumb drive. Then I installed the driver on the G510.
    The driver installed without any errors. However, I still can't enable the wireless adapter. Device manager shows missing drivers for several components (as expected) under "Other devices" but I am not sure which one is the wireless adapter:
    BCM43142A0 (I believe this is the bluetooth adapter)
    Ethernet Controller
    Network Controller
    PCI Simple Communications Controller
    SM Bus Controller
    Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controller
    Unknown device
    USB2.0-CRW
    Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network Connections shows no network adapters at all, but Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features shows Lenovo_Wireless_Driver is installed.
    When the installer runs, it copies the files from the "C:\drivers\WLAN Driver (Atheros, Broadcom, Realtek)\Broadcom\6.30.233.75\Driver\Win8" directory to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Lenovo\Lenovo_Wireless_Driver\Win8" directory. I believe the problem may be that this is in fact a driver for Windows 8 and not for Windows 7 as indicated.
    I thought at first I may have just downloaded the wrong driver (I was careful to select the right one), but after downloading it again, I confirmed that I have the correct installer with the file name wlan125w7u1.exe.
    I've tried re-installing the driver several times as an administrator, rebooting before and after each install. I've also tried Fn+F5 and Fn+F7, which does nothing.
    Edit: I almost forgot the best part. I called Lenovo technical support last night, who told me I must contact premium technical support in the morning (they were closed at the time). But premium technical support refuses to help me with this problem unless I am willing to pay $59, or $170 for a one-year support subscription, as they consider it a software support issue.

    hi FoulSynthesis,
    Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
    Your issue might be similar to this thread.
     If you have the Broadcom 43142 Wireless LAN Adapter (BCM43142) with the following Hardware ID then you may wanna check the driver below:
    Hardware ID:
    USB\VID_04F2&PID_B3BB&REV_1152&MI_00
    USB\VID_04F2&PID_B3BB&MI_00
    Driver:
    Broadcom BCM43142 Wireless LAN Driver (802.11b/g/n)
    h0wg01ww.exe
    10.6 MB
    If the driver above doesn't work for you, kindly follow this guide on how to find  the hardware ID of the Wi-Fi card (it's the one labelled Network Controller underDevice Manager > Other Devices) to correctly identify the appropriate Windows 7 driver.

  • Mini-DVI to S-Video Adapter doesn't work

    Hi, I am using the Mini-DVI to S-Video adapter from apple to connect my macbook to the TV. But the only thing I get is a grey flickering picture on my TV. When I click on the monitor-button I can see that my macbook detects only a monitor (but not a TV) in addition to the macbook-LCD-display. I tried all different resolutions, but needless to say it doesn't work.
    Can the adapter be broken, or is there a problem with the macbook?
    Macbook white 2 GHz Intel Core Duo 1GB RAM   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    my macbook detects only a monitor (but not a TV) in addition to the macbook-LCD-display
    If you connect the Mini-DVI to S-Video adapter, the monitor button on the menubar should show resolutions for Color LCD in one section and NTSC/PAL in the other.
    A grey flickering picture is indicative of picking the wrong standard-PAL vs. NTSC.

  • DVI to Video adapter doesn´t work! HELP!

    I bought a dvi to video adapter (RCA or SVideo) and I already tried on two diferent TVs and none of them worked? What should I do? Does it have a setup to do?

    We really need some more details to be able to help with your situation.
    Is the adapter an Apple one, or some other brand?
    What model TVs do you have? Please be as specific with the model numbers as possible.
    When you say it doesn't work, what exactly happens?
    And finally: what kind of Mac do you have? You posted in the Mac Mini forum, but your signature says MacBook.
    If it is a Mac Mini, did you set it up initially using a regular monitor first?

  • Rocketfish Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter doesn't work

    I recently bought a Rocketfish adapter for my late 2010 Macbook Pro and it doesn't work on my TV. I'm going to try swapping it out tomorrow to see if that's the problem, but just in case it wasn't, I thought I'd come and ask someone who'd know the answer. The TV is an Insignia TV, the HDMI cable works - we use it for out BluRay player - the adapter just...doesn't work. When I turn the TV on, my screen briefly goes to a light blue, then back to my normal desktop. Mildly frustrating that this won't work. Anybody have any advice they can offer?

    CLICK "SYSTEM PREFERENCES", THEN FIND AND CLICK THE "DISPLAY", GO TO AND CLICK THE "ARRANGEMENT" AND CLICK "MIRROR DISPLAY" PROBLEM SOLVE GUARANTEE, AND ON THE AUDIO PROBLEM, GO TO "SOUNDS AND CLICK "HDMI" OR "VGA" IF YOU ARE USING VGA CORD. NO NEED TO UPDATE THE SOFWARE. WORKS LIKE MAGIC.

  • Keyboard doesn't work on my Satellite L when built-in

    Hi,
    I have a really strange problem. One day suddenly my keyboard stopped working (doesn't matter if in windows or on boot). I thought maybe some how the cable between keyboard and notebook disconnected and opened the keyboard to check this and realized nothing special.
    When I started the notebook the keyboard works fine but at this moment I didn't built-in the keyboard again but had it loose connected to the notebook.
    So I found out that when the keyboard has NO contact to the notebook (except from the connection cable) it works fine. But when it is built-in (or just placed thereon) it doesn't work (?).
    Has somebody a explanation for that problem?

    I have no explanation for that i mean only one cable connects the the keyboard to the motherboard. But maybe the cable is broken or the connection is loose if the keyboard is plugged in?
    Just an assumption
