More help needed pls !!!

Hi there,

you very kindly posted a response to my previous query: "Only way to enable WLAN feature on my Fuji laptop is to hit Fn / F1 whch then runs a program enabling me to switch on wireless or bluetooth. Can someone tell me what program hitting Fn / F1 runs (so that I can create a desktop shortcut rathe than hitting Fn / F1 as I often use the laptop via separate keyboard / monitor with the lid closed)."

You suggested I should "make change in my hot keys program". Not sure what / where this is. The laptop came pre-configured with the Fn / F1 key set to start my "Wireless Status Option" software (there's a symbol on the F1 key of a wireless symbol).

Presumably there's a program somewhere that let's me configure the Fn keys - any idea what / where it might be ?

Cheers in Advance.

I am not the first one that helped you.

If you have a program for your wireless you should be able to bypass the button. You can also check in your BIOS to see if there is a way to keep it on. To get into the BIOS you will have to hit the DEL key or one of the F keys.

How to enable WLAN in compaq CQ61

One of the people here posted a response, more than a year prior to your question, which comes very close to being the right response for your situation - you must change the settings on your network adapter, which you can find in Control Panel.

However, not knowing which version of Windows OS you have been working with, and other information about the PC you have been trying to use for WLAN, it is extremely difficult to offer you a response which will unequivocally fix your problem.

If you post more information, specific to your configuration, then one of us here will be able to guide you to the right solution.

Please, put more information up for us to look at, and then we might be able to resolve your WLAN issue.

Cheers!

Hi i have a u135 and it hasbuilt in blue tooth but i donot know how to activate could u help

Not sure if this will work for your model but its worth a try. Copied from MSI support faq website
You have to press the WLAN button located right next to the power button in order to enable/disable the Bluetooth function. Press WLAN button once, Enable WLAN. Press WLAN button twice, Enable Bluetooth. Press WLAN button thrice, Enable both WLAN and Bluetooth. Press WLAN button four times, Disable both WLAN and Bluetooth.

Cant connect to wireless network

hi
i think you are continuing with an old question, instead of posting this as a new query again you can go to the old query and post these as comments to comtinue with the old

happy to help though, anyways lets me try n reply

could be couple reasons

just to check first have you enabled the wireless on the two laptops ;p

check on what channel the router and the laptops are communicating this you would find on the CONFIGURE settings of the wificard on the laptop

on the properties tab of the network settings go to the Wireless Networks tab and there just above the OK n Cancel buttons u would see an ADVANCED button click on that to see if the radio buttn is set to any available network

then in the Prefered Networks area if u see your wireless network name which was previously added then click on properties and put a tick on the check box which says
"connect even if not broadcasting"

also pls do check to see if there are any access restrictions like if you have enabled MAC ID recognition on the router

have you checked on the laptops if you would require any DNS server settings or Proxy which can be gotten from your ISP

cheers
pls rate if this was any help

Drivers

Hi,

For a Compaq Presario V3780TU Notebook PC, the Bluetooth driver is incorporated in the HP Wireless Assistant, a user application that provides a way to control the enablement of the radios for individual wireless devices (such as Bluetooth, WLAN, or WWAN devices) and that shows the state of the radios for these wireless devices

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.

Will connect to more than one cpmuter but no internet options

Hi,

It would seem that you posted twice....

My response to your other post:
On your post "WILL CONNECT TO WIRELESS BUT NO INTERNET OPTIONS" this would be a configuration/settings issue more to do with TCP/IP. Pls post back what modem and your ISP (provider).

On "ONLY ON LAPTOP WILL WORK AT A TIME", do you mean you would want to use the Internet on more than one computer? If yes, then you would need a router to share the internet connection.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.

Zoom X6 wireless router

Hi, With or without the firmware update, the wireless should work and be indicated with the WLAN led. Have you done an update? Have you tried a hard reset? Most routers would require a reset to default after a firmware update. Pls be reminded that when you do a hard reset, all configuration would be lost, better log them down or do a backup. Alternately, you can check your router's web based configuration manager, apparently, there is an enable/disable feature/selection for the WLAN. Verify that is set to enable. Hope this be of help/idea. Post back how things turned out or should you need additional information. Good luck and kind regards.

Laptop to tv

Hi, Perhaps you have to activate the S-Video output of your laptop. In most laptop models, this is done with the use of the Fn key + some other function key like F5 or F6 or whatever it is being used by your specific laptop model. You can also check if this feature in enabled in your Display Properties/Settings/Advanced/Monitor or amongst the other tabs/choices. At other times, you may need to change your laptop's screen resolution to match the HDTV's capability/capacity. Hope this be of some help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need further information. Good luck and kind regards.
