If you look in the power options in control panel, there may be something setup there. I know that some laptops disable nic cards when its on battery power to conserve power0

Definitely sounds like it's disabling it due to it running on battery.....in control panel...is there a toshiba application that manages these settings ?0

Try: device manager, net adapters, right click wireless adapter, properties,power management, uncheck, 'allow the computer to turn off this device to save power'.Any posts by myself are my opinion ONLY. They should never be taken as correct or factual without confirmation from a legal professional. All information is given without prejudice or liability.0
