I purchased an Amazon Dot from Best Buy for my wife last December (2016). Over the past month or so it has been loosing WiFi. Its then a pain to reset.

We have had our equipment checked and noticed when the Dot looses WiFi our phones and other equipment is still connected. I think it the Dot. Please advise how we should proceed. Barrington H Holt

I don't think its the Amazon Dot, How close is your Dot with your router? Get a better Wifi Router. You can try to put the Dot in front of your wifi router and double check.

SOURCE: loose connection with router

There must be something that has been introduced to your area that is causing distortion in your WiFi signal. 802.11 or WiFi is very susceptible to noise or signal distortion and can come from many things from interfering objects to other wireless signals such as Wireless phones. There are also many other things that can cause signal distortion I would look to see if you have added anything new around the time the unit lost signal. If your unit is working properly when you are closer to the router than this has to be the problem. Range is a big iffy factor when messing with WiFi.

The only thing that you can do is to unplug the tv for 30 min, then plug it back in and see what happens. If it is still bad you will need to take it to a repair shop. The problem is most likly the Y or X sustain pcb's or the main power supply pcb.

SOURCE: remove screen on Toshiba Satellite 2450

It appears the hinge has come loose and possibly the video and/or inverter connection. Here as a disassembly guide for a different model, I'm sure how similar it is: http://www.irisvista.com/tech/laptops/Toshiba2435/sat2435_LCD.htm
Be sure to remove the battery and check the bottom of the laptop for any screws that may secure the cover.

    Want to view all of my Amazon purchases

    Sign in to your amazon account. On the right side of site at the top there it should say Hi (your name) the menu drops down. Select orders, click on orders, it takes you to a new screen on the tab then that says - example 0 orders in past 6 months tab, you can click on that tab to view 2016, 2015, 2014 etc orders. so even if you have no orders in the last 6 months you can view any year down to 2005 or possibly when opened your amazon account.

    Greetings deegrubb,

    First, I sincerely apologize for your terrible experience. I can only imagine how frustrated you must be!

    The route you should follow would be to contact 1-888-Bestbuy and ask to speak to Consumer Relations. They should be able to assist you with this matter.

    I hope this helps!
