Hi Friend, last one month I am work on the brand new Toshiba Satellite L655-S5150 laptop. Yesterday, I done the update BIOS task on the system and then I checked the wireless connection of this laptop. I found that this connection is very poor. It takes lot of time for data transmission. Within few times, this will be creating the connection cutting in and out issues. I noticed that it only happens when I am work on laptop battery power. I need help to solve this trouble. Any help would be appreciates.

This laptop uses the Wi-Fi connectivity for the wireless connection. There might be possible that the compatibility with the updated version of the BIOS and the wifi. Hence I think you need to check this compatibility. If there is something wrong happen into that connection than I suggest you to again do this update BIOS operation into the system and first make sure that the latest BIOS will be supports this wifi and also the other components of the laptop.
