How do I fix my Toshiba laptop when it says I have no connectivity?
I have a Toshiba laptop that has been going on the internet wirelessly fine. But a few weeks ago, it randomly stopped connecting. the wi-fi switch is turned on, and my other devices such as my home computer and ipod can both connect perfectly. the security settings are also the same. I have been trying to figure it out, and It says I am connected to the router but cant connect to the actual internet beacause my laptop has "limited or no connectivity". Please Help!!!!!!!

If your computer connects to the network through a broadband router , resetting (powering off and on) the router may resolve the issue. If not using a broadband router, or if resetting your router only temporarily resolves the issue and the error message re-appears later, continue to the following steps. If connecting to your network using Wi-Fi and using wireless security, your WEP or other security key may not be set properly. Check the wireless security configuration on your computer's network adapter and update if it necessary. If connecting to your network using an Ethernet cable, your cable may have failed. Temporarily replace your network cable with a new one to determine whether this resolves the issue. If using a broadband router and DHCP on your network, check your computer's IP address to verify it is valid and not a private address that starts with 169.254. An invalid address of the form 169.254.x.x signifies your computer's inability to obtain a usable IP address from your router. To resolve DHCP configuration problems, proceed to the following steps. Reboot your computer, router (if present) and broadband modem together, then re-test your connection. If your connection remains non-functional, run the Windows Network Repair utility on your computer. If your connection remains non-functional, update your router settings to change from dynamic to static IP address configuration, and set an IP address on the computer appropriately. If your connection remains non-functional, unplug your router and connect the computer directly to your broadband modem. If this configuration is functional, contact the manufacturer of your router for additional support. If your computer is connecting to your network directly through a broadband modem, or if your Internet access remains non-functional after following the instructions above, contact your Internet provider for support.

Try to reset your router. Try to disable your wifi adapter and re enable it again. Turn your wifi (laptop) off then on Restart your computer. Uninstall wifi driver then reinstall it again If after trying those things didn;t solve your problem then your wifi adapter is the culprit itself. Bring it to a computer shop and have it replaced.

1) Control Panel > Network Connections > Right click on the wireless network > Properties > A box will appear which will have 3 tabs. Click "authentication" > Un tick the " Enable authentication for this network" > Ok > Switch off wireless and switch it back on. 2) Control Panel > Network Connections > Right click on the wireless network > Properties > A box will appear which will have 3 tabs.Click on wireless networks > On the top check/tick " Use windows to configure my wireless networks" > Ok > Switch off wireless and switch it back on. If none of them work..im sorry!

Don't get a macbook air, they're too expensive, get a standard macbook.
2 :
FOR the money unless weight and portability is a real issue, go for a macbook or better a macbook PRO. Toshibas are great except they run Windows 7 that is no match to many to the superb virus free efficient powerful and elegant optimized for 64 bit MAC OS SNOW LEOPARD. RICK

It's funny that you post this question, because I have the Macbook Air! (Revision B). It is an amazing laptop. I previously had a Gateway, and after going to a Mac, I don't think I'd ever go back! I use mine for video projects for school and picture editing with iLife. It is definitely the best. Go to http://www.vinixcomputer.com. They have some good deals on MacBook Air's as well as on other MacBooks and laptops.

look in your up dates for the oldest date instaled.
2 :
That is not a valid Toshiba model number. With a valid number you could find out. ~
3 :
To find how old is the laptop look under sometimes there is a manufacturing date if there is no manufacturing date try to google the model + review you can maybe find dated forum or blog post with people requesting information before buying it or gives there impression on the product this will generally give you an idea on how old it is. To know the approximate price try to see if there is any similar item on ebay for sell "Buy it now" this price are generally a bit lower then it's actual value (do the math and try to estimate). To be frank laptop price is so low now you have brand new laptop for around 400$ no body bothers buying used or broking laptop. If your idea is to sell it try to diagnostic with parts are good and those that are bad and try to sell parts apart as replacement parts on site like ebay and ioffer. Hope it helps.
