| 717481 | 2008-11-04 21:24:00 | Hi There, I downloaded Wifi from their site to my Toshiba Satellite Laptop and have Vista. (I was thinking it was Windows 2000, wrong laptop). Every since then my Internet only works with a CAT5 cable. I have tried everything I can possibly think of. - The problem occurs at both home and office so it's def the computer - I've tried to scan for hardware changes and no success - The wireless card is a SOLID orange and turns on an off - Tried to repair the wirless connection - Did a Windows update I am so stumped and been driving myself nuts for days trying to recify this issue but have been unsuccessful. Any help that anyone can provide I would more then greatly appreciate it!! |

| 717483 | 2008-11-05 02:29:00 | Hi, thank you.. Yes, I did uninstall it and not sure what type of wifi driver to install now b/c the computer is not recongizing any hardware changes. | LeeVic (14277) | ||
| 717484 | 2008-11-05 02:37:00 | Is the wireless chip internal or a card you plug into the pcimia slot? If internal use the s/n on the tosh site to get the spec's etc and the driver for the Wi-Fi | SolMiester (139) | ||

| 717490 | 2008-11-05 18:07:00 | They are simply mirrors of the download, just select any of the 3 sites and download the zip package. Here is a direct link to the drivers Speedy suggested. (ftp://66.104.77.130/cn/wlan/RTL8187B_5_6.1135.0625.2008_Silent_Install.zip) |
