WLan router disabled but I need to ENABLE WLan

After how many years of having wireless connectivity to our router from my laptop - my step father has suddenly decided to disable it, forcing me to use a direct cable plug from the router to my laptop in order to access internet! I need help!
Is there a way to get my wireless internet back!
Basically i cant access wireless connectivity anymore - in order to acess internet, i must use a cable which is directly plugged into the router.
in addition, the icon at the bottom of the computer screen which usually is a mini computer screen that flashes - has now changed to TWO mini computer screens which flash?!
i think it has something to do with a toshiba program - called config free. im on a limited user account and i can see that he has disabled the wireless network connection - does this mean that i would somehow have to get into the admin account, and then change it?
HELP.

I think you misunderstood something if the WLan is disabled in router settings, then you will not be able to receive the WLan signals using the notebook.
You have to enable the WLan in router settings (should read the router user manual).
After the WLan has been enabled and configured in router settings, you can enable the Wlan functionality on notebook and can configure the Wlan card settings to establish the connection.

  • Norton toolbar doesn't work on desktop but does work on laptop. Desktop shows toolbar disabled but there is no "enable" button

    The Norton toolbar does not appear on my desktop version of Firefox 24.0. It does appear on my laptop version of Firefox 24.0. The desktop shows that Norton was disable as incompatible with 24.0. But there is no "enable" button. How do I get Norton toolbar back?

    Hello,
    It sounds like you may be using different versions of the Norton toolbar. The one on the desktop must be older and not updated for v24 of Firefox. The one the laptop must be newer.
    See here for where to get the latest version of the Norton toolbar:
    https://support.norton.com/sp/en/uk/home/current/solutions/v58055475_EndUserProfile_en_us
    On a side note v24 of Firefox is no longer the latest version. To get the latest security updates you should update to v25. See here:
    [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
    I hope this helps. Let me know if not.

  • Flash videos don't work with PepperFlash disabled (but with system plugin enabled) on Chrome!

    Hello everyone,
    Basically, Google Chrome lags a lot when I use PepperFlash and so I have heard that disabling it and using the system flash will have better performance. I have done this but when I disable PepperFlash, the flash videos don't work as it says flash player has crashed. Also, I would like to resolve the lag and bad performance with flash videos on chrome because the video playback on Internet Explorer is a lot better than Chrome(Never thought I would have to say that) atm. A possible solution might be to install 32-Bit Chrome instead
    Summary:
    Flash videos lag(most likely due to PepperFlash being used according to other people)
    When PepperFlash is disabled, the system flash plugin does not work in chrome as it apparently crashes every time.
    I would like help on how to resolve the bad performance and be able to use the system flash plugin to have no lag on videos and livestreams.
    Thanks,
    Talha

  • My apple ID has been disabled.  I need help enabling iTunes .

    I believe my apple id was tampered with.  What do I need to do to be able to use it so I can down load apps?

    I am having the same problem as you.  I can use my appleID to log in to this forum or iCloud, but I can not use it to download apps or update apps I have.  I have reset my password 7 times over the past few weeks, it never helps.  Clearly the problem is not actually my password, but some compatibility problem between iOS5, Lion, iCloud, and iTunes.  Too many products rolled out at the same time, without proper attention payed to compatibility.  It is getting quite frustrating.  I'm waiting on the miracle update that will actually fix it...please soon!

  • Satellite P10-304: WLan card replacement - Do I need the same Wlan chip?

    Hi all,
    got a satellite P10-304 from a mate here.
    He said the wireless has never worked on it and hes had it years and someone else has already looked at it and changed the wireless card TNA.
    Basically it just acts as if the wireless switch isn't working and it stays permanently off although the drivers install fine and the card shows as ok. Just disconnected.
    Now I thought, ok, i'll take a look as I'm pretty good on the old hardware. Took it apart and what do you know, the switch was bent and not in place. I put the switch back into place, checked in the on and off positions with a multimeter to check the switch was working and it was doing its job perfectly.
    Now it still does not work.
    I am guessing this is now due to the fact that as I said, the card has been changed from its original to an intel pro jobby.
    My question is, am I right, do I just need to get the same card that was originally in it. I assumed that when the switch was put back correct I would have it solved.

    Hi
    The WLan card should be enabled bu switching the switch to ON position (the LED should light up) and additionally you should chose the WLan antenna using the key combination FN + F8.
    Please check this!
    Note; go to device manager -> Wlan card properties -> Advanced tab
    There you can check if WLan is enabled as well.

  • TS2446 My Apple ID is disabled but I don't know why and I can't enable it again. What should I do?

    My Apple ID is disabled but I don't know why and I can't enable it again. When I try to download an App a message comes up that says "Your Apple ID has been Disabled" What should I do?

    Depending on why it's been disabled, you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    If it then works on your computer's iTunes but not your iPad then try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it

  • Which Wlan router do I need?

    Please can anyone help?
    I am on a BT line and my service provider is wanadoo through orange. I want to go wireless.
    What sort of router do i need?
    Thanks

    Hi
    Sorry for this question but why did you post this question in the Toshiba forum???
    There are so many WLan routers on the market and I think you should read some test articles about the router hardware. Maybe then you will bring more light into this case.
    By the way, I use the WLAN-Router Sinus 154 DSL Basic 3

    Hi,
    So switch a LAN card fix this issue...seems a compatibility issue or maybe some packs or programs you installed recently cause this issue.
    Have you manually check the network adapter driver from the PC's manufacture website? sometimes, it will be a time delay before Microsoft push out the driver update.
    Check if issue exists in safemode with network, this mode will launch Windows with limited sets of files and drivers. 
    if you have a restore point, restore the pc to a previous point at which the pc is functioning fine.

  • TS2709 I have AppleTV and Ipad2 running VJay app to my TV over a private cisco router disabled firewall but I keep loosing the video on my TV after a few minutes what can I do?

    I have AppleTV and Ipad2 running VJay app to my TV over a private cisco router disabled firewall but I keep loosing the video on my TV after a few minutes what can I do?

    I also get this problem on my iPad, so probably not related to the AppleTV. On the iPad I restarted Airport Extreme this time, and then the iPad saw my Home Sharing.
    So to recap, restarting the router or Airport Express allowed the iPad and AppleTV to see Home Sharing. Restarting AppleTV also allows AppleTV to see Home Sharing.
    So does anyone have any idea?
    Thanks

  • My 4S has stopped ringing. Voicemail's disabled but if you call me, you'll hear it ring your end but it does nothing at mine and freezes if I make a call. Texts are not being delivered or coming through delayed. Ringer is on, tone enabled - help!

    My iPhone 4S has stopped ringing altogether. Voicemail is disabled but if you call me, you'll hear it ringing at your end but it does nothing my end and freezes in the phone app if I make a call (doesn't ring or connect and doesn't freeze the phone, just the calling part). Texts are not being delivered or coming through delayed. Ringer is on, tone enabled - help!
    I've disabled roaming so it only runs on wifi (this after getting a £4k phone bill...) and I can use Skype, Viber and WhatsApp with no problem at all.
    Would really appreciate any help at all!
    Many thanks.

    Hi there - am with Orange and they said nothing wrong with account and service running normally.  They said if they had cut me off I would've received a text (debatable with current message receiving situation!) and when I called out it would say 'calls from this number are barred'.  Also if you called me it would say something similar.  But it doesn't, it will ring and ring until it rings off but nothing happens at all on my handset. Not even a missed call notification.  If I call out, it will display that it is calling the number but that's it.  If I cancel the call it will constantly display 'ending call'.  If I come out of the phone and go to another app then revist phone it will start calling that last dialled number - without ever getting as far as ringing or connecting.
