when trying to connect to wireless at home with windows 8 it comes up connection limited and will not connect,but when i take my pc to my office it connects ,all other devices connect except my pc,my laptop is a hp pavilion
I have a question. Why on earth is the Windows 8.1 hide the LAN connection (Other PC built up connection) and not appearing? This question is asked because of game purpose. Using LAN connection will smoother the gameplay and prevent lagging. But using this windows 8.1 prevent me to see these connections. But in Windows 8 it appeared. Why is that happened to this latest windows and is there anything I can do to see these connections? Please help.
My TOSHIBA QOSMIO laptop, under Windows 8.1 does not remembers any WIFI passwords, so that I have to manually introduce it whenever I come home or go to work.
Any suggestions on how I can do that it will automatically stores the passwords of the WIFI networks I joined in the past ?
I am using a Toshiba Satellite PRO C850-14C which came with a Windows 7 OS, I have installed the Windows 8 OS and I am no more able to access my wireless connection options
I am trying to set up a new Belkin N150 router on my new toshiba windows 8 platform but no matter what I do, it will not set up correctly. When the new wireless router shows up on the available network list, it only connects with “limited” access. What is the problem and how do I fix it. The disc that comes with it is assuming that I have a modem and I don’t need one. I just want to set up my home network and will not be utilizing the internet. I want to print wirelessly along with sync my wireless MP3 and other devices. Please help
From what I understand, everything works okay for you:
You want to setup a local area connection with no Internet access.
AND
The “limited access” means that you have a local area connection with no Internet access.

Did you install the official Windows 8 Toshiba drivers for your laptop?
I think the right ones for you are these (for Windows 8 x64):
