802.1X cannot stay connected

Went to System Preferences -> Network. Selected my Airport, clicked Advanced.
Under the tab 802.1X, selected Domain 'User'. Created a new configuration, chose Authentication TTLS, PEAP, EAP-FAST and LEAP.
Under the tab Airport. Selected the network, in the 802.1X field chose the configuration I just created.
Turn on Airport and it says status 'Authenticated' but below it flips rapidly between
'Authenticating'
'Authenticated via LEAP
Connect Time 00:00:00'
Of course I never had a problem with this in Tiger! Help!

Upgrading to 10.5.1 did the trick.
I can now connect 'Authenticated via EAP-FAST (Inner Protocol: GTC).
I am using a User level domain

  • Cannot stay connected to internet

    Every 2-3 days the router will not let me access the internet.  get message--" you are connected to the access point but the internet cannot be found"..I fix it by unplugging the router for 15 seconds, replug and wait 2-3 minutes and I'm on line.  router is SRX200.  Had a linksys "b" system same location and it stayed on line for a year.  I have one wired computer and 1 wireless hooked up--the wireless is really hard to get reset.  The help people in India are no help on this. I'm ready to throw this in the trash bin.  Appreciate any help.
    SRX200, Win XP on wired comp, Win 2000 on wireless
    FYI, the SRX 200 doesn't seem to have any better range or speed regardless how it's advertised

    Update----the router kicked off in 24 hours. 
     I tried to update the firmware-it's old even though the router is new--and the router kicked off line at the last part of the firmware update.  Cannot connect to anything now.  Called support and they were able to get me back connected with the updated firmware.  Actually did a very good job getting me connected.  So we'll see if the new firmware will solve anything. FYI, the text of the update specifically mentions the "you are connected when in fact you aren't" problem

  • Help - cannot stay connected: BT dun with Verizon Centro and Macbook Pro Leopard (Broadband access customer too)

    Previously a Treo 770p user who enjoyed laptop freedom using Verizon's Broadband connect - never a problem.  Now ready to throw the Centro out the window, as no amount of restarting, taking battery out, scripting changes etc. etc. etc. etc. works - everything I have tried disconnects me within seconds.  Verizon of course does not support the Centro BT DUN with the Mac.  But everything worked fine wiuth the Treo - why not the Centro?  I am about ready to cancel my broadband access, or go back to the Treo - ugh.  Not even the USB cable works with the Centro/MACbook Pro - then again it did not work with the Treo either, but the BTDUN did!
    Ideas?  Fixes?
    Thanks.
    Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)

    and now, when i tried to check again my network preference below the airport tab is showing a message that
    "my airport does not have an IP address and cannot connect to the internet!"
    then after seconds it will goes back to the first message that
    "airport has the self assigned IP address etc....."
    i don't know whats going on now!
    airport tab is not showing green color anyway! i'ts always in yellow!
    i tried turning it on and off but nothing happen! HEEELLLLPP!!!!

  • 10.5.6 update - user cannot stay connected to server anymore!

    Ugh. Here we go again, Apple! One user updated to .6 before leaving last night. Today, he can log in (local account) and now when he's connected to our XSERVE, he CANNOT save or copy files to it. he is getting constant "connection interrupted" messages. I am also looking at the Server Admin utility on the server and he's showing up multiple times as either "Disabled/Asleep" or (weird) his machine name is showing up as server-16027567 instead of the machine's actual name.
    Someone, PLEASE tell me there is a simple way to roll back this update!!

    Hi DevCom ,
    Just wanted you to know that I've solved my "saved-over-the-network" problem by upgrading my AFP server to 10.4.11, after reading this note from Apple :
    Improves Apple File Service performance, especially when using a home directory hosted on an AFP server. Important: If you are using Mac OS X 10.5.6 (client) to connect to a Mac OS X Server 10.4-based server, it is strongly recommended that you update the server to Mac OS X Server version 10.4.11.

  • Why can't lion stay connected to wifi, why can't lion stay connected to wifi

    since i upgraded to Lion, my computer cannot stay connected to my wifi network,  I'm the only user on the network, my iphone and ipad stay connected, when I had snow leopard it stayed connected, but lion boots me off my network every 2 minutes and it takes 10 min to reconnect when coming out of sleep or screen saver.
    this is the worst OS apple has ever released and if i could go back to snow leopard I would, but i cannot because of icloud. 
    In my opionion, this is bull crap

    I had a similiar issue where under 10.7.3 it would be consently searching for WIFI even when it was connect and would drop the connection numerous times throughou the day . Since updating to 10.7.4, the problem has gone away. I would recommend updating if you haven't already

  • Can't Stay Connected to WIFI with brand new MBA

    I just set up my new MBA, and cannot stay connected to wifi, no matter what I do. Sitting next to my MBA is my IPAD and IPhone which both show wifi connection working. I have followed the advice from the community posted in August ( wish I knew the MBA wifi problem before buying), with no luck. No other devices shows wifi connectivity problems, router works great, and I cannot download any patches due to connectivity issue.  UGH.  Any wisdom to share?
    Thanks

    Have you tried connecting to other WiFi connections? If so does it do the same?
    If not, it might just be to do with the amount of periphirals on your current router and subsequently your router is kicking off you iPhone.
    Or you could try changing your broadcasting channel in your internet router settings and see if this fixes it

  • Can't stay connected

    Hi. bought my wife a Toshiba Satellite laptop.  For some reason, she cannot stay connected to the internet via wireless even though she is getting an "excellent strenght" signal. (using befw11s4v4 router). Hard wired to the router is not a problem.  I have two other laptops which have no problems.  The other two notebooks are not used when the Toshiba is in use so there is no conflict.  (running XP by the way).  No file sharing programs are being used. Never had this problem until I bought the toshiba.  Could this be a wireless card problem or is there some kind of tweek I can do?  Would appreciate any advise.
    Thanks

    If it show connected status under wireless network connection .....check the Ip address under the same ........ if getting any valid Ip address like 192.168.1.X ....with gateway 192.168.1.1 ....... try to ping the gateway address & try going online
    Try above settings after disabling the firewall & antivirus software ....

  • My IPad 2 with 5.0 will not stay connected to WIFI

    Since I upgraded to 5.0 on my Ipad 2 I cannot stay connected for more than a minute or two and then it loses the signal and I have to completely shut down and power up again. This only works for a minute or so and then it tells me there is no signal. I am in Lima Peru and newer routers are not likely to be here for a year or two, if old routers are a problem. I have tried the Ipad on several routers, different hotspots and the result is the same.

    Tried all of the above. My wife's Ipad works where mine does not.  Did restore to factory settings, twice, and still drops Wifi. IPad is under warranty and Apple said to send it in for warranty replacement. Problem is I am in Lima Peru so that is a little tougher to exchange.  The "store" that sells Apple here is only a shadow of a real Apple Store and are of little use or value except to buy new things in boxes at higher prices and limited inventories.
    Thanks for your suggestions however!

  • Having trouble staying connected to IEEE 802.1X with my iPhone 4s

    I got my iPhone 4S pre-ordered with Verizon and I am having trouble staying connected to my college's 802.1x WiFi connection. My college has a help website with a walkthrough to connect to the network and it works and I can get WiFi on my phone but when I lock my phone for about 1 minute my phone forgets the connection and I have to go through the steps all over again to get connected.
    Here are the steps my school site has me follow:
    Connecting to the RPI Wireless Network Using 802.1x Authentication on the iPhone / iPod Touch
    Make sure that your device has been updated to the latest software version available.
    Go into Settings and select Wi-Fi.
    Make sure the Wi-Fi switch is set to ON.
    Under Choose a Network, select Other....
    Enter rpi_802.1x for the Network Name, and press the Security option.
    Select WPA2 Enterprise as the security, then press the Other Network button in the top-left corner to return to the previous screen.
    Enter your RCS userID and password in the appropriate fields and press the blue Join button in the bottom-right.
    Let the network access load, then press the Accept button to accept the certificate provided.
    This is really annoying so any help would be appreciated.

    We use 802.1x Authentication here at UCSD and it seems fine.
    The only problem i see is it will disconnect when you lock the phone but it automatically reconnects when you unlock the phone.
    Our setup is a lot simpler, you just select the network and enter in your AD account information.
    It could be your college has not setup their wifi correctly. You should connect your network team.

  • HP 7510 AIO printer won't stay connected - Wired workstatio​n, wireless printer

    Hi!  I spoke (and checked solution button) too soon. The printer still "disappears" from the Wired XP network workstation. The only difference since applying the solution given is that the disconnects are now happening about every 12 hours, vs every couple of hours.
    Ink notification is set to "only when I print"
    Static IP is set for all machines
    HNDU works -- when the printer is visible but will hang the workstation if printer is not visible.

    Network Setup:  Main router, along with 2 access ports (hardwired); currently using channels 1, 5 and 11 (again, we're in the country and have little competition for channels)
    File Sharing: All machines in network have one open "share" drive, accessable with passwork.
    Scenario:  Wireless computers appear to stay connected for several days to a week at a time. (We reboot weekly, just as a SOP)
    Computer that is wired to the network loses communication with the printer a couple of times a day and needs to be rebooted in order to restore connection.
    When this happens, other machines continue to print and scan, with no problems, and the wired machine continues to have its name displayed in the SCANNING panel on the printer -- but the printer won't talk to it.   All network functions, including internet and intranet access to the printer's EWS is still available.  I have noticed that if I go into check ink levels, though, that the ink check software behaves differently. 
    Normally in the ink status app, there is a small "working" icon with 6 dots. When this computer is connected properly, it will start jumping around the circle, showing activitiy, get to 41%, and then display the ink status info.  When the printer/computer connection is not working, the "working" icon will go to just a couple of percent then jump to the printer information page, showing make, model, serial number, firmware level etc.
    In every instance so far, rebooting (with no other action) brings the printer/computer connection back to life -- until next time.  I am trying to find any other pattern for this behavior, just can't identify it yet.
    I started out with the plain vanilla installation, but then every computer in the network would consistently drop connections, about every 45 minutes. Using the info on this forum, I've eliminated the drop-outs for those printers, and got to the Static IP solutions (we've done that anyway for years with net-ready machines).  This is the last machine that "drops off"  It appears that some piece of HP-required software is "dropping out" or getting clobbered, but I cannot see a pattern, even checking and noting the various software used locally on the machine, and the various websites visited. So far, no pattern.
    I am hoping that an HP guru with access to the source for the "ink supply" status software can take a look at what is happening and why it will always go to 41% and then display ink status (when connected) and then only go a couple of percent and display the ink status (when it isn't connected).
    Thanks, in advance,
    jim

    More info:
    In last paragraph, above, the request for "ink status" is returned with a static display of the printer firmware version, driver version, step level, MAC# etc of the printer, not "ink status" when the printer is disconnected.
    Also, when printer is disconnected the HP home networking utility will hang the system -- a hard reboot is required, which restores the printer, until the next time it goes "into the woods".  Signal stregth, measured on the printer, is 4 bars (very good).

    Thanks!  That appears to solve the problem.  After your suggestion, I remembered that I set the "ink level warning" on this machine ONLY to "Always warn me", as opposed to "tell me only when I am printing".  That seemed to be the problem. Only the computer that was set to "always warn on low ink-levels" was disconnecting -- the others worked fine! Now, all are working fine.
    Just to be safe, though, I've also turned off the "scan from printer to computer" function on each computer. That was set for each machine, and seemed to work fine. The other machines in the network did not disconnect, and the printer was tracked whether each computer was on or off.   May try to turn it on later; I'll see if the family uses that feature very often!
    Thank you for your help.

    I spoke too soon!  After about 26 hours, the printer connection on the one "hard-wired" CPU dropped, which is better than before, but still not solid.  Same exact symptoms as before. Only piece of the puzzle that was different this time is about 50 pages were scanned, some to this computer.  Used the "Scan requested from CPU" process, rather than enabling the "Scan TO Cpu" function in the software app.  It did not drop the connection immediately after -- about 1 hour to 1.5 hours afterwards.  Suspect this is a coincidence, not a cause of the problem with this machine.
    I also scanned (same approach) from one other CPU on the network -- that wifi connection is still rock-solid.

    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    I think it is fixed now.....the problem seems to reside in the module that will notify you immediately if ink is low (vs notify me only when printing).  If, when initially installed, the user selects "immediately", then the printer will randomly disappear. (More on "re-finding it" later.)
    Also, it is difficult to change the ink notification setting, because it appears not to be "sticky", but will sometimes, flip. (I've not figured this out yet).  As long as the setting for "low ink notification" is on "only when printing", life is good.
    If the printer does disappear, go over to the Advanced tab when the printer software/firmware page comes up, instead of the current ink levels.  Reset the selection about "tell me about ink notification" to "only when printing", and then toggle the "autoshut off" from "NEVER" to "2 hours" and then, finally, back to "NEVER".  Then, lastly, press closed on the panel.  Printer should be connected again. To test, go to the Photosmart 7510 app again, and select "Show estimated ink levels".  The counter will start at 1%, jump to 41% and then bounce around until it displays the ink level.
    FOR HP TECH:  Please consider making the "ink level notification" persistent in the registry OR provide a de-install tool that will completely clean all traces of the prior installation of the 7510 driver / app in the registry, so that a new install may have this setting saved correctly.
    Hope this helps some of you -- it's an excellent printer once its running!

  • SOLVED! HP Officejet 6500A E710 will not stay connected to the network. scanner not connected

    After 5 hours of live remote HP tech support, and 10 more hours of web searching, I am happy to say I have solved the wireless network connection issue with scanning and printing using the HP Officejet 6500A E710n-z.  I notice that there are a lot of people with similar issues with no common, successful fix.  Here is what worked for me.  
    Background Info:
    Upgraded internet service from 9Mbps to 27Mbps...Provider brought out new Arris DG860 modem/router.  Configured network and connected all clients (smart phones, PCs, Tablets, etc) successfully accept the printer.  With this new router/modem the printer/scanner/fax would not connect to my PC at all (Windows 7 64-bit).  The Officejet was always connected to the network, however, anytime I tried to print I would get an error "Unable to connect to the printer...", and when I made an attempt to scan.."Scanner not connected, make sure it is connected to the network..." blah blah blah.  
    Process:  
    After searching the web for solutions with no success, I finally made my first call to HP tech support.  Tech tried numerous fixes: many network changes (channel, static IP, etc.), made changes to Windows system settings and registry, installed new software and drivers, ran the scan doctor, partial, semi, and full reset on the printer.  He changed my wifi channel to 6 (or 11) from AUTO and whola.  That seemed to fix the problem.  After hanging up the phone 10 minutes later "No connection" errors again.  Made a second call to HP Tech Support, and this new tech basically tried all the same fixes as the first tech.  Worked again for 10-15 minutes then disconnected.  Made third call to tech and this individual tried the same fixes as the previous two, but to no avail.  He said he would have to direct me to a more Advanced Technician and would call back tomorrow.  They called back the next day, and this new tech fixed the issue within 20 minutes. 
    Problem/Solution:
    The fourth "more advanced" tech made one change in my network configuration settings.  He changed my network mode from B/G/N to B/G and now the printer/scanner/fax stays connected and works like brand new.  The only problem is that all my devices (including the Officejet) are 802.11N capable.  Setting my network to the old B/G mixed mode slows my speed down just a bit.  Using B/G/N mode or N, my download speed is 27 Mbps.  On B/G mixed my speed is 25Mbps.  Not too big of a deal, though.  All the HP Support Techs were very nice and helpfull.  They refunded my $25 Tech fee [fee charged when product is out of warranty] because the problem is not "technically" solved, even though it does work.  Conclusio:  This seems to be an issue with my the modem/router provided by my ISP.  Could also be that it is an older Officejet and need to upgrade.    To Fix Follow the Steps Below:
    Step 1:  Find your default gateway IP...usuall 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 or similar.  Type this IP into your web address bar and hit enter.
    Step 2:  Enter the username and password.  This is normally set at factory default --> username: admin ....passowrd: password .... or .... admin
    Step 3: Go to the "Wireless Setup" tab and under the "Advanced Options" and "Wireless Network Settings" change the "Wireless Mode" to "B/G mixed".  
    Step 4:  Click "Apply" then close the browser.
    You may, or may not, lose your wifi connection for a short period while the new settings are applied and you may, or may not, have to power cycle your modem/router.  That's it.  Worked for me and I hope it works for you too.  If you have any questions or comments please feel free to post. 

    OK, that all sounds right.  Here are a few more router config ideas:
    1. Make sure that 802.11g mode is available, along with others is OK, but 'g' must be present.
    2. Change the channel to 11.
    3. Use WPA or WPA/WPA2 encryption, not WPA2 only.

  • TS1369 I just bought a new laptop and my ipod nano will not stay connected to my computer. When I first connect the ipod it starts to sync on my ipod but not in itunes. At this point my ipod is connected to my computer but when it finishes syncing it's no

    I just bought a new laptop and my ipod nano will not stay connected to my computer. When I first connect the ipod it starts to sync on my ipod but not on itunes. The ipod is initially connected to my computer, I can see it when I look on devices in my computer. However, when it finishes syncing it is no longer detected to my computer. I cannot transfer any of my songs to my new laptop because of this. I have tried to reinstall itunes, reset my ipod and use a different port. None of these things worked. Any ideas?

  • VPN not staying connected via WRT54G - 619 error

    Hi All,
    I have spent several hours reading thru all the old posts on VPN & 619 issues and cannot seem to resolve the problem.  Any help would be much appreciated!
    Issue - I can connect to the VPN via the wireless router, but after a minute or so the connection is lost and a 619 message appears.  If you use a wired connection directly to the DSL modem, the VPN stays connected fine.
    Interestingly, this is a new laptop that uses Windows as the VPN manager.  My old laptop used Cisco as the VPN manager and had no issues connecting or staying connected
    Hardware -
    Dell Latitude laptop - Vista OS
    Windows VPN Manager
    Speedstream 4200 DSL router with windsteream ISP
    Linksys WRT54G Wireless router
    What can I do to fix this?  Thanks!

    Find the Port Numbers for your VPN Manager and open those ports on your Linksys router...Change your router's MTU to 1300...

  • Vizio smart Tv won't stay connected to my linksys e1200 while playing Netflix

    I have a Vizio Smart TV and just over the last couple of days I cannot seem to get it to stay connect to my Linksys e1200 router.  I will start a movie on Netflix and it will play for about 10 minutes and then disconnect.  I talked to somebody in Cisco Linksys Customer support and they said that the problem had something to do with IP Addresses.  I have no idea what he was talking about.  All I know is last week I could watch an entire movie without losing connection and this week it only stays connect for 10 minutes and then I have to turn the TV off to re-connect. 
    Ideas?
    Thanks

    Umman, is your Smart TV wirelessly connected to the router? There may be an interfering wireless signal in the area that interrupts the connection. Try changing the router's wireless channels to avoid interference. 
    Here's an article that may help.
