    Okay I'm on my 3rd Toshiba M40 now.. and while I thought everything was 100% perfect.. I've now noticed the same Wireless problem that another user was noticing.

    Everytime I reboot the notebook, the wireless goes off, including the wireless light.. The only way to get it to come back on is to flip the switch from off to on..

    Same problem exists if the notebook suspends itself.

    The other M40's I had did not exhibit this problem.

    although this M40 doesn't exhibit the right side screen problem of not being as bright as the left side.

    Any suggestions? as I would like to keep this unit...

    Sometimes you have to try and ignore the least-annoying problem to be happy. I know any oddity can be pretty annoying, but I have one say about this particular Toshiba notebook.

    It must be made of components they had for cheap or the assembly line is not really good, because for the kind of punch it packs and the price it is, it's a little too good to be true!
