Qualcomm Gobi 2000 Wireless WAN Driver for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit), Vista (32-bit, 64-bit) and XP - ThinkPad
can anybody help ? Shure thing Lenovo can not since this problem is not new.
I am not relying on this Modem for UMTS/GPRS LAN like some people do. I just was interested to see and test the GPS receiver and decoding the data strings from it in NMEA format. over the comport 11 that is random claimed by this mysterious program that leads is own live on the Lenovo and is random available or gone.
The WLAN function key fn-F5 does not know about the presence of a GPS receiver....
But shows the above I still do not know The difference between 802.11 Wireless-radio and the
Draadloos WAN-radio? to me it is the same thing is'nt it?
I have installed the latest Qualcomm driver again and the latest BIOS FW. That did not bring it back.
But It must have something to do with the power saving or sleep mode. The power configure shows nothing about it. Somewhere in the deep slumps of Windows processes are running that the user can not affect. The functionality is poor and seems of lower importance than the looks fits well to the present time we live in.
It has worked some time after the latest re-install of QC driver.
Then GPS can be started. Normal , no message like GPS is not supported on this system the application is closed... without any further explanation.
Also sometimes the WLAN suddenly does not connect anymore Starting the problem solver for the WLAN then it comes back with:
"de voorziening voor draadloze netwerken is uitgeschakeld" saying the provision for W-LAN was switched off.. do you want to switch it in?
Then yes and it works again. I did not switch it off there is no "switch" for the user.
There is a physical switch on the left side but that one is always on.
And sometimes the DVD player is just switched off ... of course there is no "switch" to switch it back in... After some rebooting it will work again with some luck...
I am not using the DVD player often but last time we wanted to see a French film
Les Intouchables over the DVI on the Sharp LCD FP TV. That should be an easy job . Plug in the special Lenovo format videoport to DVI cable to the TV. Place the DVD and ready there you go...
Haha... Firsts the DVD was disabled. A red crossmark over it. By the same mysterious thing that is waking over the Lenovo trying to frustrate al things that should work normal...
I call this an UFO Unidentified Frustrating Object. A common thing in modern hard and software..
So after some puzzling I could play the DVD and having the TV as an extra monitor.
But... no sound to the TV only the laptop speakers..
So had to connect a separate audio cable.. Then yes sound onthe TV
But no audio to the audio out RCA plugs NO sound to my Audio system.
Crazy! this Sharp has an army of plugs for Audio and video 3 DVI USB etc but the TV did no let me make use of this obvious function. Simply not provided. We are missing some very hidden setting or we are dealing here with a prototype software ...again.
The audio out is only active when the source is the TV it self or the device connected to SCART1 SCART2 is connected to a second TV source the KPN Digitene receiver and that audio is not send to the output ... Why not? someone in Nippon must know more about this. We will never know...
