  1. Wireless capability is turned off


    Even if I manually turn on Wifi, it is no longer recognized. Troubleshooter still shows Wifi needs to be turned on. If I chose to check if that has been resolved, the troubleshooter then shows, wireless capability is turned off. I have done everything possible from Utube to no avail, so far. Can anyone help?

    :)

  3. Wireless capability won't turn on

    Thanks to you all for your suggestions but none of them solved my problem. To make matters worse I learned at Toshiba's website that my Satellite A665 is not listed as Windows 10 ready device.

    Fortunately I also found an answer to my problem, and that was to turn on the wireless capability using the software switch: TBSWireless.exe located in the Program Files/Toshiba/TBS directory.

    Now I plan to go back to my Windows Home Premium.

    wireless capability is turned off

    I am only speculating as i don`t know what type of Setup ( External Modem / Router you have and if its Wireless capable ).

    As to your Computers WiFi Modem.

    You should see a Network Access Icon in the bottom Right Hand Side of you Task Bar. on your screen.

    Hover your Mouse over it or Right Click on it to see what options you are given.

    It should show a list of Networks Available.

    In this list it should show the External Modem / Router what you are trying to connect to. ( Make sure its WiFi is Enabled or it wont show up in the list ).

    If it is in the list select it and click Connect.

    You may be asked for some other details such as WiFi Password or MAC Address or some form of Identifier which is usually supplied with External Modem / Router which you may have to enter manually to connect the two.

    The external Modem / Router that you are trying to connect to usually come with a small Card with the WiFi Details such as WiFi Name / Provider / WiFi Password and some other documentation on connections.

    Not sure if this helps.
