Hi,
You have to know if the WiFi at home is “N” Network...
What you have in your Toshiba is “G”...
You will have to buy an “N” wireless USB Adapter…

Hi, try pressing the ESC button during boot up, this will allow you to start in safe mode, from where you can change your passworg, via the control panel. (Sometimes its the Del button on sertain machines)

The power button is on the LEFT side of the computer, under the Ctrl key, slightly closer to you. It is covered by a sliding door which slides BACK to open and expose the push-ON button.

On the side.

See the attached photo.

Toshiba Tercra 8200 have a buildin network connection, and a buildin wirless. You don't need additional hardware, just connect the cable from the modem to the 8 pin port in the rear for wired, and if you want ot use the wireless then please post your queation back on the thread.

thanks you

Your motherboard is the issue here I have seen this problem many times but just to make sure try hooking it to an external monitor

Heres where you get your manual.

Download a program called Netstumbler.
This will show if your wireless is doing anything at all firstly.
If the card is internal then check if the wireless cards antenna's are connected still. Sometimes they are not on there correctly, just sitting there and look like they are connected.
If you can see the access point with this program then check the router to see if the access method hasn't been limited locking out your card from connecting. Normally that is listed in the wireless access list by MAC address etc.

Networking is more complex then most realise, but the info above should help you to start with.
