Reset the modem and router (if you have a router) Unplug the modem for about 20 seconds or so (While your computer is off) Unplug the router. plug the modem back in. Wait for lights to cycle through, until you see the "activity" or connectivity lights blinking... plug the router back in, wait for it to cycle. turn on your computer.

Please help!!

I'm getting frustrated with my new Toshiba R705 because the internet is really slow and loses connection frequently. I turned off firewall and still had the same problem. Other computers in the house using wireless work fine. How did you fix this?? please e-mail [REMOVED]

I had a similar issue where a laptop in the office would not connect properly to the wireless AP - a reboot of the AP appears to fix the problem.

Regarding the Virtual Miniport, you should be able to disable that in Adapter Settings if it is not used/unwanted.

OK. Here's what worked for me, believe me I tried everything that's been suggested online to date and it turns out the fix is simple. My wireless is working perfectly fine now no more limited access and loss of connection!


1. Set wireless encryption to TKIP. Change it from AES!
i.e.
>> right click network connection
>> wireless network properties
>> security tab >> security type 'WPA2', encryption type 'TKIP'.

2. UNTICK 'Enable Intel connection settings'.
i.e.
>> right click network connection
>> wireless network properties
>> connection tab >> UNTICK above option >> ONLY TICK 'connect automatically when...'

There is absolutely no requirement to disable firewalls, anti-software, hardware (i.e. virtual wi-fi port etc.) or any other complex procedures. The fix is simple as stated above.

Hope this helps.
