X201 wifi light always on but TpFnF5 does not list wifi as an option

Hi,
I had an Intel 6200 card in my X201 and my hardware wireless switch is turned on.
The LED light for my wifi turns on by itself booting into windows 7 and remains always on but the TpFnF5 software doesn't list wifi as an option for switching on and off. Only bluetooth and wireless wan are available for software switching.
I've tried removing and reinstalling the intel 6200 device driver, the lenovo hotkey software, the power manager software, connection software etc but the hotkey software still cannot recognize the intel card.
Pls help. Thanks!
Solved!

Hello mate,
Try to go in Access Connections in advanced mode. Click on the tab Tools then Global Settings. In here check if Allow selection of location of profiles with Fn+F5 On Screen Display menu is tick and untick Allow the wireless LAN radio to be turned off when inactive.

  • I am trying to set up internet sharing from my macbook air but there does not seem to be an option for this because the air is connected to the internet via wifi connection. Is it possible to still share this?

    It depends upon how the other machines are connecting to your MBA:
    If the the other machines are also using wi-fi, they can connect directly to the wireless access point (router) without going through your MBA
    If the other machines are connecting to the MBA using ethernet you can share your wi-fi connection to them

  • I have just purchased Quicktime Pro but Trim does not display IN and OUT options. It trims to the frame on display.

    I have just installed Qicltime Pro but when I edit a video file and try to set the In and Out points, it does not show any way to set them. It trims the video down to the one point on display. Have I installed the software correctly?

    QuickTime Player 7 Pro is in the Utilities folder.
    To set in and out points set the position you want in the timeline and tap the i key. Move to the end of your selection and tap the o key. To step frame by frame move the playhead by tapping the left/right arrow keys.

  • Connecting to wifi select the network but password does not let me join

    when I select the network and try to put in the wifi password I cannot join on the wifi

    Have you attempted to use a computer to go to iCloud.com and change your password?  If you are successful at that, then do the following:
    Settings > Mail, Contacts and Calendars, click on the iCloud account, scroll to the very bottom of your screen, delete account.  Then go back in and the iCloud account again and put in the new password. 

  • AX green light, but airtune does not work

    I just bought an AX. The main purpose is to use airtune and to share printer at home, and to bring it to create wireless network when I am on business trip.
    When I first set up the AX, or later do a reset, the setup program can find AX. I use airport admin utility to set up the following:
    Airport tab:
    Wireless model: join an existing wireless network (wireless client)
    Wireless network: I choose the current wireless network I have at home.
    Internet tab:
    Configure: Using DHCP
    I clicked 'Update' button. The status light became green, but airtune does not work. I did not see the button show on iTune for me to choose the speaker. I went back to Airport Admin Utility, but could not find AX at all.
    I googled for possible solution, and saw concern regarding DHCP, so I tried:
    Internet tab:
    Configure: Manually
    IP address: 192.168.0.30. My wireless router assigns IP from 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.33
    Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
    Router address: 192.168.0.1
    DNS server: 192.168.0.1
    After updating the information to AX, I have still the same issue: green light, but no airtune, Airport Admin Utility cannot find the AX.
    My wireless is a gigabyte. Please help. Thanks.

    Sadly I can't help, but i can confirm: I am having the same problem. AirTunes was working fine, up until I went away for a month -- have just returned, and now am getting the same problem with TWO Airport Express units, which makes me think it is some kind of software update issue?
    Will keep looking into it, and will let you know if I find anything.

  • TC works on ethernet, does not on wifi, but wifi works

    Hi,
    having problems with my Time Capsule. It was working fine until a few weeks ago, then after a long absence it stopped to work (I didn't see backups updated). I switched off the TC, then switched on, no change.  I tried with a ethernet cable, and backup was done smoothly. Back to wifi, I tried to remove the com.apple.TimeMachine.plist file from /Library/Preferences, but backup through wifi didn't work.  Time machine got stuck at the "Preparring Backup" stage forever.
    However, the wifi works.My lMacBook Air is now connected to the internet through the TC wifi, and I can enter the TC for old backups using the wifi.
    The same behavior is occurring with my wife MacBook.
    Any suggestion ?
    Thanks,
    Luigi

    Your confusing me now..
    To add, if I connect the wifi to the TC wifi, it works. If I connect the wifi to my adsl router, it does not. However, if I have the wifi connected to the adsl router, I can see the TC in Airport, as working fine.
    But in no case does the TM backup work?? Does the TM work if you connect to the adsl router wifi instead of the TC wifi?
    So you have the adsl modem as your main router. The TC should be in bridge.
    I have a few tasks for you.. none of which is guaranteed to work but we should be able to fix it.
    1. Downgrade the firmware.. you can try the following steps without doing this.. but 7.6.4 is not helping.
    In v6 utility in Lion you can simply select the TC, option click on version.. and all the older firmware will appear. Select 7.6.1 and downgrade.
    2. Factory reset.
    The Factory Reset TC Gen1-4. Or AE Gen1-5
    Unplug your TC/AE. Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on..  all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec.
    Release it when the status light flashes rapidly. If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have missed it and try again.
    Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel..  add no more pressure after that.
    TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
    No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
    3. Redo the setup.
    Use all SMB type names.. eg.. TCGen4 as TC name.. it is short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    Use TC24ghz for 2.4ghz wireless. Use TC5ghz for 5ghz wireless.. yes, use different names at least until you work out the issues.
    Use WPA2 Personal security with a 10-20 character full alphanumeric password.
    4. Delete the current TM setup and start again.
    See A4 here. http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    So you will select the newly named TC but the TM should find your old backups and continue to use them.. only Mavericks it seems is too stupid to do this.
    5. See if TM now works by wireless.

  • I want to disable or remove Game center from my iphone. It's always pop up during i play hay day game. So i can not solve this problem. Any way i try to log in game center my several Apple id account but it does' not work. I am still stuck in log in page

    I want to disable or remove Game center from my iphone. It's always pop up during i play hay day game. So i can not solve this problem. Any way i try to log in game center my several Apple id account but it does' not work. I am still stuck in log in page

    The Game Center app is pre installed and cannot be removed from the device.
    Best thing to do is move it to the last available screen.
    Hold down the Game Center app until all the apps jiggle then sliide the Game Center app to the right from one screen to the next. This requires a bit of finesse, but it's doable.
    Press the Home button one time to stop the apps from jiggling.
    For the Apple ID issue, try resetting.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    Then try your Apple ID and password for the Game Center app.

  • Intermittently iphone 6 and 6 plus is wifi connected but internet does not work.

    Hi,
    I have an issue where intermittently iphone 6 and 6 plus is wifi connected but internet does not work. iMessage works though.  Toggling the wifi setting clears
    the issue temporarily but it occurs again.  Running iOS 8.3 now.  This was the case on iOS 8.1 and 8.2 as well. 
    I have tried the typical troubleshooting steps (reboot/reset network settings/disabling location services for wifi/upgrade/etc)
    My router is an EA9200 router with 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz.  It is configured with all bands with the same name.
    All other devices in my house works perfectly fine and has no disconnects (ipad/macbook air/tv's/receivers)
    My thought is that iphone 6 cannot handle well the moving around between bands. 
    Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    David

    Have you tried to reboot your router by turning off the power (you may have to unplug it from the power source), then waiting about 30 seconds, then turning it back on?  This seems to solve a lot of problems.

  • Upgraded to Maverick. Now cannot connect to wifi. All my other devices will connect. Have rest wireless hot spot switch and cable modem. Other devices still connect but MacPro does not. MacPro wireless is self assigning an IP address blocking access.

MacPro wireless is self assigning an IP address blocking access. It will connect if I connect to my iPhone hot spot via wifi. Any ideas?

    If you follow this video you'll see how to delete your WiFi AP from the OS, this will allow you to select it again which I feel will correct your problem.

    Found these instructions here:

    I found an answer that worked for me. I am using an iMac.
    (1) Sign out of the iTunes store
    (2) Open a NEW account with a new Apple ID
    (3) Go through the sign up process and then go to the ACCOUNT INFORMATION page
    (4) Go to RECOMENDATIONS & PING POSTING
    (5) Turn on Genius there
    Once the Genius updates, you can sign out and then sign in under your original Apple ID or the e-mail address you use for the iTunes store. All my store credit was there and now Genius worked.
    Rather odd but I actually like the Genius at times except when it can't deal with some of my lesser known bands that I listen to.
    Worked for me.
