WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none receive

Hi,
WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none received"... Help
I have tried network diagnostics which doesnt help... The only other ting is, when I woke the computer up it said tat another device was using my IP... My wife had plugged her phone into the computer to charge etc but even when i turn wifi off on the phone there is no change... also in settings on the phone the IP address is different...

The answer to your question is - neither!
Your PC should to configured to obtain an IP address automatically, and to obtain DNS server IP addresses automatically, from the Airport Express. This is the way Windows (and Macs for that matter) are configued by default, and that is the way most people have their computers set up. If you manually configured your PC's IP address to be the same as your wife's Mac, it certainly explains why your PC is not able to access the internet.

  • WiFi stops working after install of latest 10.8.5 update on MacBook 5,1 third time reinstall OS X

    WiFi stops working after install of latest 10.8.5 update on MacBook 5,1 third time reinstall OS.
    MB used as email and surfing tool when on vacation. Worked fine for months. Installed the latest security patch (update) and WiFi quit working. Two days later (still on vacation) WiFi started working again and worked fine for the next 2 days.
    Came home and formatted and reinstalled 10.8.5 and all was fine again. We are selling the MacBook and setup new user, everything worked fine.
    The update came up again so I decided to install it and WiFi instantly stopped working after the restart.
    Does anybody have any idea what is happening.
    Thanks

    Not really, although WiFi has been a longstanding problem for lots of people. I fix for some breaks others.
    However, if you are trying to sell it, you need to revert it back to the OS that shipped with it. You cannot sell your copy of Mountain Lion with the Mac. It is only licensed to you.
    You also need to include the system disks that came with the Mac. If it came with Leopard (10.5), and you have a Snow Leopard (10.6) disk, you can install that if you provide that disk also.

    I just brought my Mac book pro 15" 2.3 ghz on 12 september 2012 not even one week I've used it the battery cannot be charged.
    the upper corner right says it's plugged in but not charging.
    How do I solve this I'm going to London the next week! (23/09/2012)
    I need this replaced or repaired ASAP. Is tat possible? It hasn't being used for even a week and it's already cause such a trouble? Is this what Mac is?

    Hi Steve,
    I just got back from the apple service centre. I must say they treat us pretty bad and raising voices and stuffs.. If you wanna question or doubt on such service, I've recoded everything in my mobile and iPad. The company I brought from is TECHNOCRATS in 1Borneo Hypermall. The service centre headquarters is DIGITAL FORTRESS SDN. BHD. located in Damai Point.
    Here's what happened..
    I went in the service centre and disappointingly, no one entertain us (my boyfriend and I).. we stood there for a few minutes. :(
    Till we enquire for administration and problems. A girl said she doesn't know much. She gave me a number to her superior named Charles. She asked us to contact him. Then we asked "aren't you suppose to call your superior regarding to this matter?". "it's this the part of your profession to call Charles? Why is it my job to find him?"
    Soon the lady calls him and she passed the phone to my partner.
    Wow, there was raising voices and stuffs in the phone. So my partner asked him to come up to the office and discuss this matter since he was jst downstairs. For your information this is the second visit of the day, so we visited the second time after lunch hour which is 2:15pm
    Well it was dramatic, Charles with his raising voices and terrible attitude for a greeting. So he straight forward blamed us for not putting the mbp down to the registration. (FYI no one there bothers to serve us for the 1st and 2nd visit). For my concern, this mbp is not cheap. And how can I just put down my laptop and leave? Without any rational reasons.
    Long story short, I told him my problem and he said he will make a diagnosis and will return the answer to me tomorrow probably before noon.
    Here's what I'm upset about. I enquire about the genius bar. He kinda felt offended and told me tat only apple store has genius bar! Im just asking you don't néed to be so loud on this.. I'm still very new to Mac products and stuffs.
    Now that I have sent in my Mac book pro to diagnosis with the cables and everything. Hope to get the answers soon and hope it wasn't really bad since it was new.
    Now its pretty much scarred on my side about Mac's Brand. I just wanted a reasonable solving problem and yet I get negative feedbacks from the service centre. Is this how it should end? I'm still pretty upset right now.
    Any suggestions for me? Please?
    Worried,
    Shirley

  • Upgraded to Windows 10: Wifi Stops Working after about 20 minutes operation

    Upgraded to windows 10. Everything was working fine. Then WIFI stops working. I reboot and again, things are fine then as the computer goes to sleep, WiFi stops working and won't reconnect unless I reboot. All other computers in the house using either Windows 7 or 8.1 are connecting just fine. Need some help or I'll roll back to 8.1. This is frustrating to say the least.  

    I have a HP pavilion X2 (10-j000na) which I have upgraded to Windows 10 and I have the same issue. Every so often the wifi signal is lost. When I go to the device manager it says there is an error with the driver for the Broadcom 802.11 abgn Wireless SDIO adapter. The only way to resolve this issue at the moment is to uninstall the driver and then re-installing it using the latest Windows 8 driver (sp68594.exe) in compatability mode for Windows 8.
    But even then it is only a matter of time before the driver corrupts again and needs re-installing. We need an updated driver for Windows 10 and fast!

  • Wifi stopped working after upgrade, Asus N13

    Hi,
    A couple of days ago my wireless stopped working after I ran a full upgrade.  I have tried to identify the problem to no avail.  I attempted to use the Ralink drivers for my chipset rt3072 but those worked very poorly compared to the rt2800usb driver in the kernel and it kept freezing my system.

    I am using wicd but I have also tried with NetworkManager (I have made sure to systemctl disable the one not under test).
    I tried using wireshark in monitor mode on another computer to capture the exchange for authentication.  I can see my computer request authentication and I can see the router reply back.  The reply is an authentication successful message, but then my computer immediately tries to authenticate again.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    I have the same device and a similar issue.
    Connection works but pinging the router shows extremely high ping (over 3000ms) and high packet loss, especially when the network is under load.
    The connection drop randomly and wont reconnect until I manualy unplug and replug the usb device.
    Downgrading the kernel fixed the problem.
    Which kernel version did you downgrade to?
    I also have the same device at home and I might face the same problem when I go back home next month.

    If those solutions don't work your iPhone 4s has developed a hardware problem. The permanent solution is to get it replaced. I have not heard of Apple replacing long out of warranty iPhones.
    You can search the internet for heating and freezing solutions that might work (at least for a while).

  • New connections stop working after 31 hours of computer uptime.

    I have been using a pppoe connection since I installed archlinux in 2006. This works very well. a network cable is connected to my computer and I use it to dial a pppoe connection. I never had any problems with it.
    But a while ago, I thought I would share this connection with my phone so I got a router out of the closet. the ISP's cable is connected to the router now. then my computer is connected to the router with a cable and gets a connection through the router's DHCP server. the phone establishes a wireless connection to the phone.
    the lease time is 9 hours.
    Now after exactly 31 hours, current connections on computer continue to work (existing downloads) but the computer stops doing new connections. so I cannot browse the internet.
    /etc/rc.d/network restart doesn't help
    restarting the router doesn't help.
    only a computer restart does. how can I troubleshoot the problem?
    if I connect the cable directly to my network card at this stage, I can dial the pppoe connection and use internet. it's only connections router through 192.168.1.1 that stop working.
    PS. I don't have a windows installation so I have no idea where the problem lies.

    here's a wireshark log from two occasions. http://hussam.eu.org/capture.zip http://hussam.eu.org/capture2.zip
    some notes:
    1. rmmoding the network card driver and modprobing it again doesn't help
    2. I hibernated for 10 minutes and I was able to extend it by 10 minutes. I actually did try this once before too. I hibernated for an hour and I was able to extend it to 32 hours (31 awake time + one hour hibernation).
    3. http://192.168.1.1 will still open.
    4. I have to do traceroute -I or -T.   router seems to block traceroute without arguments or traceroute -U.

  • WiFi Stopped Working After Installing WICD

    Hi,
    I've been messing with knetworkmanager, wifi radar, and finally WICD. All in an effort to get to a usable interface for me to connect to my router at home. I never managed to get the first mentioned 2 to work due to knet not even opening, and wifi-radar not detecting any devices.
    Finally, I stumbled upon WICD, I installed it via the Arch WICD Wiki, and somewhere along the installation I must not have noticed that the Wifi light on my laptop went out, and I subsequently lost my wifi. I noticed this by the time I had the WICD GUI open and running and it wouldn't detect any devices.
    I had my WIFI installed via ndiswrapper and an .inf I got from a dell website (I use an m1530). My driver is still installed, but not I don't get my wifi light to come on, thus its not working.
    I use KDEmod 4.1 if that helps.
    Any advice would be great.
    Thanks.

    FIY Google Search: m1530 wireless ndiswrapper.  1st result:
    http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=408362
    Try searching the forums before you ask questions.
    Solution would be, apparently to downgrade your kernel.  Or try and get the new broadcom drivers to work:
    http://gentoo-wiki.com/Broadcom_43xx  (or search the archwiki, it's there too, somewhere)
    Other things you can do include:
    -Trying the development branch of ndiswrapper / waiting for a new ndiswrapper
    -Installing different linux/unix distributions until you find one where you driver works
    -Reverse engineering how your card works and writing your own driver
    -Working on the ndiswrapper code
    -Buy a wireless card with linux native drivers, there's still problems with some of these but they've always worked much better for me than try to ndiswrap windows drivers.  Bonus: figure out what you need your card to do and find a card that will do it (example:  Do you need WPA or WPA2 to work?  Because the rt2500 chipset works great unless you want WPA support)

  • WiFi stops working after every update on iMac

    I am hoping someone can help me out with this.  After several months of trying to figure out what was causing the issue I have finally been able to figure it out and reproduce it.  This problem is that after each and every update from Apple on my 2012 iMac, it breaks my wifi for every other device (macbook pro, iphone 5, ipad 3, ps3, dvd, etc).  The network still shows, but no device can connect to it.  The only one that will remain connected is the iMac (no ethernet cables used).  In order to fix it I have to press and hold the reset button on the modem/router.  Going into the router/modem and resetting the wifi, modules, router, etc does not fix the problem.  Once I hold the reset button down and reboot the modem/router all is fine until I do any other update from Apple (or the Apps Store).  Has anyone else encountered this or know of a fix (or even somethign to test)?  Both the macbook pro and the imac are running Mountain Lion, all other devices are up to date as well.  This is beyond frustrating! 
    Thanks!

    also i noticed that once i switch on my airplane mode and then connect to the wifi it works great as ever. but once i go back to normal made again the same problem occurs. can somebody plz help me.

  • I have a fairly new mac book pro with retina display- I have not tried installing anything other OS on it. In spite of that yesterday when I turned it on, I got the error: no bootable device insert boot disk and press any key. what is the reason for this?

    I swithced it on by clicking on options when I start up and then clicked on Macintosh HD. the other option was a question mark and network drive.
    Is there a way to ensure it never happens again, what is the cause for this problem, if I need to uninstall some application, i am happy to do it as long as I know what is causing this conflict.
    many thanks!

    Something is not making sense here.
    You claim this is a brand new machine and you have not tried to install Windows or Boot Camp.
    Then why would you ever even go into System Preferences > Startup Disk and choose Macintosh HD? It should have automatically booted into Macintosh HD.
    You're probably going to have to reinstall Mac OS X.
