Satellite A300 - Cannot use WLan
Posted: 28-Jun-2012 11:21

Hi

I have a Toshiba Laptop A300 and did a reboot / clean laptop with rescue disk from Toshiba
Vista Home 32 bit x86

All went fine with reinstall + vista SP 1 + office ...

But no wireless Lan possible / via cable I have internet.

Following steps followed

Removed Realtek family fast ethernet RTL8101 / NCDIS6
Reinstalled and got error code 10
Went to the website Realtek downloaded again and reinstalled
No more error driver working fine but still no wireless network detected or even able to setup as

I only have possibility to chosse broadband or via dialup in network manager

Next I read on a post that the free norton antivirus was blocking so I removed symantec + Norton antivirus
Still no luck with wireless
When I push F8 wireless is on and button under keyboard with wireless is also enabled

I am out of ideas can anybody pls assist

Thank you very much

Tonny

Hi

Are you sure you installed right WLan driver?
The RTL8101 / NCDIS6 sounds like LAN card.

What A300-xxx do you have exactly?

Please send us exact model name and model number so we can check notebook specification and see which WLAN card is inside.

... clean laptop with rescue disk from Toshiba Vista Home 32 bit x86

Original Toshiba recovery image contains right WLAN driver so I’m a bit confused after reading this.
Is some unknown device listed in device manager?
Which devices are listed under “network adapters”?
