Lenovo 11e E/Edge :: After A Fresh Reload Are Unable To Connect To Wireless Networks
Jun 19, 2012
I have 3 thinkpads that after a fresh reload are unable to connect to wireless networks. I have gone through and installed the different wireless drivers on the lenovo support website.I have gone through several steps of similar problems others have had but it hasn't made a difference.
I have installed:
-HotKeys & patch
-Power manager & driver
-Chipset
The realtek network -ethernet adapter and communications LAN driver.I have installed and removed each wireless adapter available
Thinkpad Edge 15
Type: 0319-46U
On a side note in the Device manager screen there is a "Network Controller" alert saying no driver installed for this device. I have determined it is some Realtek device but beyond that I am lost.

WLAN is shown in device manager as functional, it even can find networks in range and everything. But when I want to connect to a network it gets to a point when it asks me for the username and pass, and stops there. The error sometimes says that it can't identify the server or that i should just try to reconnect. I tried connecting to various networks, and I can't even make it tell me that my pass is wrong... It seems that it isn't able to communicate with the server. It passes Intel wlan tests until the 'association' test.
Rainstalling the drivers and/or the windows didn't help, should I send it for RMA?

I had to upgrade my system to Window 7 Ultimate, the laptop came with regular Windows 7.
I updated all drivers and everything else works perfect except for that I cannot connect to any wireless network. No matter how close I am to a network the computer does not recognize it.
Then I finally noticed the wireless button on the keyboard being red and no matter what I do, I cannot get it to go off.
Also just noticed in Device managers a few "!" next to some items
PCI Device is not installed
Network Controller is not installed

My new T440s sees my home networks yet won't connect with passwords that absolutely are correct. Running Windows 7 (64-bit) Pro, everything is updated.
Also, it won't even connect to an open network.
This is bizarre...and makes the machine nearly useless.

I recently bought a centrino 6300 wifi card from ebay with the correct FRU (60Y3233) from a centrino 6205. The new card detects networks but it cannot connect to the networks.

I've recently formatted my hard drive and put my own copy of Win7 on my Thinkpad Edge 14 (0579-A62). There's no more recovery partition. After being surprised that Win7 didn't have any built in drivers for the display or WiFi, I plugged an ethernet cable in and went to the Lenovo support site. I tried all of the Networking: WLAN drivers but none of them let wireless work. I installed the Intel PROSet software and it just says "Driver is not installed" so I'm assuming it doesn't have anything to do with the WiFi key on the keyboard.

I just received a new Studio 15 (Vista Premium) with the Dell 1510 Wireless card and I'm unable to connect to my network using a Belkin N1 router. First let me say I'm limited in my knowledge of wireless networking but I did try troubleshooting a little without any success (Wi-Fi is turned on). When I click on "Connect To" it does pickup my network plus several others with great signal strength so the card is seeing networks but when I put my Key in it keeps coming up can't connect to my network.
Since the Studio 15 came with McAfee with it's firewall enabled I disabled it but still no connection. I even tried Safe Mode With Networking but still no success. I finally called Dell and he did some troubleshooting like having me go to Network Adapters and then to the Dell Wireless Card and Advance.
Under "Property" it was set to 802.11h+d and under "Value" it was set to "Loose 11h" but he had me change it to "Band Preference" and "Prefer 802.11g/b". It didn't make a difference but I did notice it had reverted back to the first settings when I back to that screen.
The tech gave up and transferred me higher up so the new tech says he needs to configure some settings on my Studio 15 and my Belkin Router in order for it to work but it would cost me $69.
I'm not paying Dell another $69 so can someone help me? I should state I have a Dell 1505 with their standard wireless card (not N1) and it connects with no problem.

I fresh installed Windows 7 and installed all the drivers from Lenovo's website. Still I cannot adjust the brightness. It stays on MAX and drains the battery in 1h30min. All other F hotkeys work but not F7 & F8 for brightness control. Is this a BIOS/Drivers issue?
ThinkPad Edge E535
Model: 3260-CTO
AMD A10 4600m apu
Windows 7 64 Home Premium
New just turned on a few hours ago. Brightness control was working before fresh install. Did fresh install to get rid of bloatware.

I've had my Inspiron N5030 for about 10 months now. I've been using the same wireless router for about 8 months with no problem up until a week or so ago. I started to intermittently have the limited connectivity issue. It would come and go. So I tried to unplug the wireless router and modem. After that it seemed to work okay but the next day I turned on my computer and it wasn't connected at all. It shows my network but when I try to connect it says that windows cannot connect to my network. I'm the person that set up the network so I have the correct key and code and it's worked fine for months so I'm not sure what's causing the issue. I've also tried resetting the router but that doesn't seem to work either. I have a ipod touch that's able to connect to the wireless fine though so whatever the issue is it seems to be with the laptop.

im unable to connect my bluetooth headphones to my pc.
the headphones are Plantronics BackBeat 903.
i have no problem connecting them to other computers, or cellphones for that matter.
when installing the Bluetooth driver, it says it doesnt find any bluetooth device, even though the headphones do run on looking for a device (or whatever it's called), but the laptop does not see them at all.
again, i dont have this issue with other computers.
plus, ive tried to install the latest bluetooth driver available on lenovo's site, but i cant finish it (have to cancel, it doesnt finish it without locating the device).

I purchased a Dell Precision M4700 pre-installed with Windows 8 just before Christmas. Over all I am happy with it. My biggest regret was getting Windows 8.
The issue that is really starting to frustrate me is the inability to access the internet through certain secure WiFi access points. For example, I am sitting in a Marriott hotel using the Wifi network in their conference facility. Yesterday I could connect, today I cannot get to the login page. After several attempts to force a fresh connect by connecting to another network I have given up and am now tethered via my phone. A Windows 7 laptop and iPad connect without any problems.
At two companies that had a secure guest network I was unable to login at all.
As far as I can tell from the Dell web site the drivers for the Wifi card (Dell 1540) are all upto date (version 6.30.59.26).

I just installed a Windows 7 64 Bit (Professional) onto my HP Pavilion DV6-7014nr, and now it is unable to detect any networks. I checked device manager and there is not even a tab for network adapters and the only message I see on diagnostics is "Install a driver for your network adapter. Windows did not detect a properly installed network adapter. If you have a network adapter, you will need to re-install the driver." Where do I find the specific driver I need and how do I get it onto my laptop without being able to use the internet on it? Also, I noticed under "Other devices" in the device manager that almost everything under it has the yellow triangle mark next to it, like for the ethernet controller, network controller, PCI device, USB controller, etc.

A week ago I have bought new Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 11, win RT.
All look fine excluding following problem: I unable to switch the laptop to my Microsoft account. Currently the laptop is connected to local account but that does not allow me to use SkyDrive and MS Store.
I tried following: Went to Setup, pressed on <Switch to Microsoft account> button, then I've asked to provide my local password, and then my email.
Finally the white rectangle appeared for an half minute or so, and then following message is appearing:
Sign in with Microsoft account. The service isn't available right now - please try again later.
I tried for a week but unsuccessfully.
I'm sure my Microsoft account is functioning good. I can sign in to it using a web browser.
Then I called to MS support service, they told me that they do not support Windows RT at all. As they said: Windows RT IS NOT A MICROSOFT PRODUCT, each HW vendor builds it for it own use as he wants. And they sent me back to Lenovo support.

I'm using a lenovo thinkpad edge e530.
I have a problem changing my BIOS settings after installing win8.1 and enabling bitlocker. I wanted to reformat the partition it was on, so I wiped it with gparted and now all settings in bios are greyed out and I cannot change anything. What can I do to be able to edit my BIOS?
I also have linux installed on my computer if I could do anything from there.

I needed to reinstall Windows 7 and everything seems to be working after Lenovo replaced the system board but I'm unable to install a wireless adapter driver. How do I know which kind of adapter is in my system ? When I enter 0319 3UG as type I get a whole bunch of Wireless LAN drivers. Tried them all but none seems to work.

I have an edge 530, i've had it about 2 weeks running windows 7 64.I have found that on default settings its fairly slow at waking up, i made one change which was to the wireless card, i unticked the allow my system to turn off wireless to save power (so it stays on). this seems to have made an instant difference and the laptop now wakes a lot faster.
The problem now is with having that option unticked, when my laptop does wake up the wireless is off when it wakes and will not turn back on, i have to manually turn it on. If i leave the power save option ticked for the wireless card it does auto connect when my laptop wakes.Seems a little odd as i thought unticking the option to allow my laptop to turn wireless off means it should just stay on but it seems to be having the opposite effect.all i wanted was for my laptop to wake faster and the wireless either stay on or auto connect after it wakes.

I came across an intel 7260 card and installed it in my HP G72 with no problems. The notebook boots into Windows 7 64 bit with no errors. As soon as everything loads I try to connect to the internet and get "No Wireless networks found". I was using the intel wireless manual troubleshooter which stated the "radio is off" I checked the f12 key and have a blue light. Device Manager sees the adapter with no errors. The windows mobility center has the wifi network area greyed out. The Hp Wireless Assistant only shows bluetooth. I switched out that card for the old card and can access my network. if there is an fn key combo I need to press or a command I can enter in the command prompts or a regestry setting that needs to be changed.

Will the mac pick up any wireless networks? I notice there is an apple brand wireless base, and wasn't sure if that was needed for the wireless to work?
Will any backup external hard drive work with the mac? For example, I have a WD Passport drive that I use with my Dell. Will it be compatible with the mac?

When I press Fn+F9, Wireless Radios Master Control will appear, but there's only WiFi icon and Bluetooth icon is missing (I installed all latest drivers for my model E520 1143-37G).
I have seen advices to reinstall Hotkey Features Integration Pack but here comes my second problem. This HFIP includes Lenovo Patch Utility 32&64 bit but it's old version (1.2.0.1), newer version is included in Power Manager and ThinkVantage Communication Utility (v1.3.0.9). That;s the thing I don't get at all...

I just got a new Thinkpad 540p but it can't consistently connect to my home wireless network. Since a day of getting it, it was able to connect on 3 separate occasions. One being the one during the initial set up which was fine. But after that it will resort to a limited access state after a few minutes as well as with the other instances that I was able to connect. The same thing happens if I try to restart it right away after connecting. It goes to limited access. If I disconnect and try to reconnect, it won't allow me to. It prompts me to a troubleshooting step which did not work at all. I've been trying all day and night to look up solutions but with no clear one ....
This one runs on Windows 7 btw.... The wireless adapter is just a 2x2 11b/g/n wireless lan m.2 adapter... updated drivers and everything. Also, none of our other devices such as mobile phones and an HP desktop have problems connecting.

I am probably stuck with 4 primary partitions (two WINRE, EFI, and C), and unable to split C on a fresh system installation from HP DVDs.
320GB HDD has failed on my G6 2233 HP laptop. I've mounted a 500GB replacement, and done the following things:
installed Windows 8 from the HP System Recovery DVDs (provided by HP, not recorded by me, fresh installation)removed the recovery partition with HP Recovery Managerinstalled all Windows 8 updates, and HP Support Assistant updates upgraded to Windows 8.1installed all Windows 8.1 updates, and HP Support Assistant updatesWent to the system partition tool, to see 4 primary partitions created...
At this point I was unaware, this may be an issue. I've tried to split C as seen on the image. Wasn't able to set desired values (max value was to about two of equal size, due to ummovable files), but that was nothing new for me - on the previous 320GB HDD I've ran into the same issue, as I could (but COULD) do two about 14xGB partions.Here I've wished for 120GB and 344GB.Anyway, even with various values I've got an error on the next step, claiming that there is no room on the HDD.
Then I've decided to try EasyUS software, as it worked for me me in the past.First screen is without any action (there is a bunch of weird partitions there, all created by HP software/OS).
I could choose to decrease the partition size, but option to create on from the unallocated space was not active.
I am confused. If I am not mistaken, I should not remove the two WINRE and one EFI partition, but I either convert C to logical partition (this option is not active on EasyUS (could do that on my USB HDD drive), or remove one or more of the other primary partitions.
Even if I will find a way to convert C to logical, is that safe, and should I after D is created return C to primary?
I've tried to play safe, and let the HP/OS software do the job, and they left me with 4 primary partitions...
OK I've found the guide which sadly does not seem safe... [URL]...
Unfortunately they seem to have different names... What is the EFI partition HP Toolls as mentioned in the guide etc.
I guess I should, after installing Windows 8, and removing the recovery partition, create a new partition then, and upgrade to 8.1...

Product: HP 15-g029wm Notebook PC
Original OS: Windows 8
Currently Installed: Windows 7
I recently downgraded my Windows 8 HP 15-g029wm Notebook to Windows 7 Ultimate. Of course this has caused issues with drivers, and the Windows 7 64-bit drivers listed on HP's website for my laptop do not work properly. Currently the laptop does not recognize any USB device and I am unable to connect to the Internet, making it difficult to run any diagnostics to obtain information needed to find the best drivers for my system. Where can I find drivers for my laptop that will allow it to function properly?

I want to use my notebook to do a presentation in class. However, no matter which projector I connect to my Vaio SZ440, the display is unable to be shown on the projector.
I've tried Fn+F7, not working, tried stamina mode, not working, tried speed mode, not working. I've tried "Connect to a projector or other external display", not working. I've no idea what I should do. I really need to fix this or else I'll get screwed this semester. Every other notebook the projector connects to, it will automatically detect and show the display. Only mine is like this.
Please help. About 1 year ago I didn't experience any problem when connecting to a projector. I didn't remember what exactly I do to make it go bad. But I really need it to work this semester.

I own an HP Envy dv6 Notebook PC, MOdel No.2CE243OCYT. It has an Atheros AR9485 802.11 b:g:n WiFi adapter. There is an HP update for that adapter, but when I updated it, I was unable to connect to the internet. I realize that this WiFi adapter is only for 2.5G. I had to refresh my laptop, then I had internet access again. I have not tried that driver update again, but TWC just updated my Cable modem to dual band using the 2.5G and 5G bands.I am afraid to install the Atheros update in my lapotop again because I don't want to go though the hassle of re-installing all my software pd[rograms again.Is there a dual band WiFi adapter that HP recommends, and is it easy to install?

I am having some difficulty getting a Dell Latitude D630 to connect to a projector. I have tried the Fn key+F8 key however this does not work. This option merely cycles through three other options all saying 'Presentation Mode Off'. I have been successful in connecting other laptops with the projector. Is there somthing with the D630 that I have failed to do that is causing this?
