Toshiba Satellite A 665 Can’t Turn Wi-fi On

  • 0

I can’t turn WI-FI on in my Toshiba A 665, Win 7. At the biginning worked good ,than vanished. Checking Fn > F8 below main icon (with an antena ) do not show up other four icons below, like they suppose to do. So I’m not even able to try to turn it on. Restarting doesn’t do at all. Pushing Wi-fi switch, above the keybord, doesn’t even show On/of icon. Couples days before everything was O.K. Is it hardware problem ?

    1. Satellite A660-18N – Solution for disabled WLAN switch

      I have at last solved this annoying issue, my laptop is a Satellite A660-18N

      Out of the box it just would not connect to wireless networking. With the Fn-F8 key combination reporting: “Wireless communitcation is disabled, please turn on the wireless communication switch”

      Of course there is no such switch, just the FN-F8 Combination key press. Having tried various forums, and tech support, I solved the problem my self.

      The solution is:
      Go to the folder on your c drive “Program files\Toshiba\TBS. Then scroll down the list of program files and double click on the file named TBSWireless.exe and hey presto, the wireless communication will turn on (Amber Light will come on on the front bottom right panel of the computer). From now on the FN-F8 Key combination will turn it on and of.

      Bye all
