My Apple TV has no Wifi Signal

I have been using Apple TV's airplay almost everyday using Wifi.  Suddenly, there was no Wifi signal from Apple TV at all.    Other machines like xbox, bluray, and TV have no problem and all have strong signal. Apple TV shows zero Wifi signal at all and I cannot even see its wifi Mac Address anymore. I have to connect the machine to my router using an ethernet cable so it can connect to my network.
Is it broken? What should I do?  Any help please?

hi, sorry for the late reply. the wifi suddenly dissappeared, so I plugged in the ethernet to update the software, reset, and/ or restore.  I did everything.  And still no luck after removing the ethernet cable in between changes.  The ATV got no wifi signal, no wifi address at all.  the status are all N/A.
I'm returning it to Apple tomorrow.
Thanks for all the comments.

  • Jetpack 5510l has no wifi signal - can only connect via usb to get Internet.

    Bought this device on a Thursday and it worked flawlessly - until Saturday.  The device has had a consistent connection to Verizon, but on Saturday the wifi began to 'go out.'  The device showed everything was working, but the wifi radio seems to have just turned off (after intermittently failing for a period of a couple hours).  We tried several different devices, none showed a working wifi signal coming from the mifi by the end of the day.
    What we have done so far:
    Rebooted.
    Removed battery (after shutting down), restarted.
    Used hard-reset button.
    Used web intefrace to turn wifi on and off - and on, changed ssid, passphrase, reset again (after each phase we also gave it an hour to see if the signal would return).
    Nothing has gotten the wifi from the device back online - it's as if either the radio or wifi antenna is completely broken.  We attempt to connect using 3 or 4 different devices - so it is most certainly the mifi.  There are no errors from the device - is there a debug / test mode?
    Our current workaround is to connect via usb to a Macbook and just share the internet connection - which works great, but makes travel a bit more difficult if a computer has to be connected to allow us to have a wifi signal (not from the mifi).
    Regards.

    Taking the Jetpack apart is going to void your warranty.  I would not suggest going down that road until your warranty is up.  Instead give VZW a call and have them ship you a replacement under the warranty service agreement. You have done a perfect job of isolating the problem to a wifi radio issue.  Its easy to recreate and confirm which will make the phone call fairly quick.  Unless you got sold on some kind of Best Buy warranty and prefer to go through them, VZW is going to be your best bet at getting a speedy replacement.

  • HT204400 Apple TV drops strong wifi signal.

    Everything up to date with reliable 50Mbps internet, Apple TV works with Cat 5 cable, but drops streams frequently and lags airplay when connected wirelessly. It is 10 feet away from the router. why? Restarted multiple times, checked software version multiple times, restarted router, restarted MBP, it just won't stay connected. Is there a fix coming for this?

    I'm not having a problem with the speed of the internet, I'm having a problem with it staying connected... yes I know it's a wifi issue that's obvious... thanks for pointing that out.
    Nohting for Apple to fix? hmmmm, well Two Samsung phones never drop the signal, a Samsung TV never drops the signal, a Samsung Tab 2 never drops the signal, an iPad Mini never drops the signal, a Macbook Pro never drops the signal.... but for some reason the Apple TV drops the signal 20+ times during one movie and it won't stream airplay. 
    Not to mention multiple other posts complaining about it staying connected even using Apple Airport.
    So hopefully there are other people who will read this post that can respond with more than just pointing out the obvious. I mean seriously theres gotta be something that can be fixed or something because thus far Apple products have been impressive, this doesn't seem to fit their M.O.

  • My iPhone 5 has weak WiFi signal.

    After the latest update, the issue was solved. However, today the signal became weak again. The sign only shows "a dot" of the signal strength wherever I go. Do anyone know why is it??? It seems so weird to me that the problem just suddenly happened. I didn't drop my phone what so ever.

    Hi - I would first try and reset the wireless - go to Settings --> General --> Reset --> Reset Network Settings - if this doesn't help then your phone is still within the 90 day support period so you can contact Apple online or at an Apple store if there is one nearby - go to this link - http://www.apple.com/support/contact/

  • My iPhone 5 connects to wifi but shows one bar on the wifi signal meter but my iPad2 and Macbook Air both show full wifi bars when all three are side by side next to my apple router. Do I have an antenna problem with my iPhone 5?

    It appears that my iPhone 5 has a wifi signal reception issue. I only show one bar on the wifi signal meter even when I an next to the router.  Both my Macbook Air and my iPad2 show full wifi signals at the same time.  Rebooting the Apple router and each device results in the same meter readings. 

    Does this occur with any Wi-Fi connection? Or only a specific one?
    If it occurs with any Wi-Fi connection, take it to Apple.
    If it is only occurring with a specific Wi-Fi connection, it is an issue with that Wi-Fi connection.
    Try the following, it may help:
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Forget the Wi-Fi connection on the iPhone then reconnect.
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).

  • Have iPad 2 and also iPad. Why does old iPad get stronger wifi signal?

    Why does  my new iPad 2 have a low wifi signal, while sitting next to first iPad that has strong wifi signals?  All settings are the same.

    Reclusive36 wrote:
    I don't think its any stronger or weeker I jus think the iPad 2's WiFi meter seems to be more accurate.
    That's unlikely since the iOS and hardware in this area should be identical.
    If you are having reception problems take your iPad2 to an Apple store for some testing.

  • Can anyone tell me or give me a link to the latest response from Apple regarding very real weak wifi signal on what seems to be a batch of both the new ipad and the earlier Ipad2. I have just bought a 2nd hand ipad2 and it has a very weak wifi signal

    Over the last week or so I have been trawling the internet looking for references to weak wifi signals on the Ipad2 and was staggered by the sheer quantity of people who seem to have identical issues, not just with the ipad2 but also with the new ipad. What annoyed me most from reading the reams upon reams of comments made on the Apple community forum is the fairly large number of people who seemed to believe that 'these' people were either just moaners and wingers or else they must have something wrong with their router set-up rather than a serious fault with their ipad and it seems all because there ipad in question works like a dream.
    Obviously I can only speak from my experience, and that is, I have an ipad2 32GB with wifi, purchased about 6 months ago and it works like dream with a good 2-3 bar wifi signal through 2 thick stone walls over 30 feet away. My router is a standard one supplied by my broadband supplier compatible with all 'g','b' and 'n' equipment. However, over a week ago now I bought second hand genuine ipad2 16GB with wifi from a close friend who has just purchased a new ipad3 to replace his old ipad2 (had it for over a year so no longer under warranty). When I started it up downstairs from my router, where I always use my other ipad2 which has a very strong wifi signal, I discovered that the new secondhand ipad2 I had purchased couldnt find a network signal at all. So after doing network resets and all other 'fixes' on the device recommended, I took it upstairs to my office where the router is based and found that the device could now locate the network, but the signal was lost over only 12 feet from the router!
    I quizzed my good friend about this issue and he informed me that it has always been like this since he first purchased it and he never thought that it was a fault, it was just the way it was. When he first aquired the device he did think at the time that this distance was poor, but thought nothing of it as he didnt have any other ipad to measur ethe signal strength against, and as his router was in his living room anyway he nothing of it. Fair enough.
    So, there we have it. One ipad2 with a very good wifi signal and another ipad2  with a very poor wifi signal running off the same router, both with the same IOS 5.0. ?
    As well as all of the other isues that customers have picked up on, such as 'death grip' (which I must say does appear to happen, but personally i dont think that this is a serious issue if you are aware of this issue and have a strong signal anyway), my experience seems to be a good  example of a 'duff' wifi ipad versus a 'great' wifi ipad', an issue confirmed by complaints from a fairly large number of customers who have also reported the same or similar weak wifi signals with both the ipad2 and the ipad3. So, as this shows the weak wifi signal is a very real issue it seems on a batch of ipad2 and 3's, which to my logic is obviously a hardware issue on a batch of early ipad2's and not a software one, otherwise all ipad's would suffer this problem! So, is it a faulty antenna or a faukty network card in an early batch?
    So, the bottom line now is, of course, firstly,  how can I get Apple to fix my other ipad2 when the warranty has run out? Any suggestions anyone?
    Personally I think good Apple customer service should offer a recall with a replacement on this apparent batch of ipads, dont you?

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • My ipad has suddenly decided not to connect to the internet. My WiFi signal is strong. My PC is connected ok through the same WiFi signal. I have tried pressing the home and off buttons to get the apple logo but this makes no difference

    My ipad2 has suddenly decided not to connect to the internet either through Safari or email. My WiFi signal is strong and all other devices in my house are connecting ok. I have tried pressing the home and off buttons together to get the Apple Logo but this has not changed anything, still cannot connect. "Safari cannot open the page because your ipad is not connected to the internet"

    I have done this and no difference
    I have just realised what has caused the problem.
    Yesterday I fitted an additional Homeplug with built in wireless N adapter ( I alreday have another type fitted from my main router position) The wireless system to my ipad is obviously "confused" . Having now removed the second homeplug and reset my ipad all is now ok

  • Why Is My iPhone 4 Struggling To Pick Up a Wifi Signal My Macbook Has No Problem Receiving?

    I have both an iPhone 4 and a late 2009 Macbook.  I work at an office just a few yards from the local hospital.  The hospital has a public wifi that is definitely receivable, although weak in spots.  But what I have noticed is that my iPhone 4 has a real hard time finding the signal and keeping it.  I usually only get 2 bars max, out of the three on the signal graphic on the screen of the iPhone.  It drops out often on the iPhone.  However, when I connect with my Macbook, the connection is solid and it displays that I am getting a full signal.  The signal doesn't drop on the Macbook.  My question is why is there a difference between the iPhone and Macbook in picking up a wifi signal?  Do iPhones not have as much sensitivity to pick up a weaker signal?  Is there something I can do to the iPhone to enhance its reception?

    They better huh?
    I'm sure Apple is shaking in their boots.
    No such problem with my iPhone which I connect with a number of wi-fi networks.
    If the same problem with any other wi-fi network besides your own and no change after resetting network settings and/or after restoring the iPhone as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem.
    If the problem is with your wi-fi network only - no problem with any other wi-fi network besides your own, the problem is not with the iPhone.

  • I have changed to AT&T U-verse, which has a new modem and router combined.  Safari 5.1.10 will not recognize the wifi signal, but Foxfire will.  What settings do I need to change on Safari?

    Hello SalsburgD
    The first thing I would check is to make sure that the router is using the recommended settings to get online. Another troubleshooting step is to create a new Network Location and then join your network to see if that changes things.

  • I can't sign into face time. My account has been verified and I have full wifi signal but it comes up with check network connection how to i fix this?

    What IP does your iPad show as having?
    Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons together for 10+ seconds, ignoring the red power-off slider, until you see the Apple logo.
    Some folks have discovered that changing their DNS service fixes FaceTime connection issues.
    The ideal way is to configure your modem/router with DNS service, but often settings in System Preferences/Network on your Mac will override the router settings. Try either of these;
    OpenDNS
    208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
    Google Public DNS
    8.8.8.8. 8.8.4.4

  • My MacBook Air says it in connected to my wifi, but my wifi signal has a "!" sign on it. My computer will not allow internet access, help?

    My MacBook Air says it in connected to my wifi, but my wifi signal has a "!" sign on it. My computer will not allow internet access, help?

    When you see an exclamation point in the Wi-Fi menu, from the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
    Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts. You may get a warning that Wi-Fi is not available, that you're too far from the base station, or that you're using the wrong password.
    Assuming that you've ruled out those possibilities, restart the computer and try again. If there's no change, click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane and authenticate, if necessary. From the Location menu at the top of the window, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click  Applyand test.
    If there's still no connection, and if you have control of the router, compare its settings to Apple's recommendations. Some third-party routers may be incompatible in 802.11b/g/n radio mode. Try setting the mode to 802.11n only.

  • Weak apple tv wifi signal improves when using iphone hot spot

    using apple tv and wifi signal is weak but when i tether to my iphone 4s on the same wifi network the signal improves. is there a way to improve signal on apple tv without hot spot.

    Hi everyone !
    I'm new on this forum (and French btw, so I apologize in advance for any mistake (: )
    I've bought the brand new MBP 13' few weeks ago, and I kept having this problem until now, I just installed K64 Enabler, and it seems to work perfectly, so I wanted you all to know it
    Thanks for all the help you brought me !
    Hope Apple will fix this once for all !
    See you !

  • HT1349 I have a Power PC G5 mac. It's Dual 1.8 GHz and has 1 GB DDR SD Ram. This mac has no wireless Airport Card. Where do I get one to install in the computer so that it is able to pick up wifi signal and how much is the cost?

    I have an older Power PC G5 desktop mac. It has 1GB DDR and SD Ram and Dual 1.8 GHz. The problem is there is no wifi signal. I think I need an airport card to insert in order for this model to pick up wifi. How do I know which airport card to use?

    Your Power Mac G5 had an option to have an 802.11b/g AirPort Extreme Card. You basically have two choices: 1) Search the Internet for vendors that still provide this card, or 2) Get a wireless USB adapter that supports both 802.11b/g, but also the newer 802.11n standard. An example of this USB adapter can be found here.
