13" MacBook Pro Keeps getting kicked off the Internet

My 2009 13" Macbook Pro keeps disconnecting from the internet somehow. It happens every once in a while when I'm browsing through the internet.
Whenever I try clicking to another page, all of a sudden Safari says it cannot connect to the server. At first I was begining to think that the issue was with Safari but I then found out it was also happening with Firefox. The only way that I could connect to the internet again is if I literally close my Macbook and wait a few moments before opening it again. For some reason my laptop is the only one in this house having the issue, my sister's 2011 13" Macbook Pro works just fine and doesn't have this issue. So I know it can't be a problem with the router. Does anyone here have suggestions???
I am really annoyed with this issue!

Check that your time and date are current in System Preference and being updated for your location.
Your likely being dropped by your router as your DHCP lease is expiring because your date and time are off.

I Have an ipad 2 and it has started running really slow. Is there something I can do to fix this
PPlease help

You may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
Your router may not have given your iPad a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPad (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

My Mac Book Pro keeps getting kicked off wifi.When I get kicked out I turn Airport on and off ,it then works for a few minutes then I have to turn Airport on and off again.Any Ideas?
Thank you

Hello there Joanny,
I have a neat lil gem here about troubleshooting wifi connectivity on the Mac OS platform. Named Troubleshooting Wi-Fi issues in OS X Lion and Mac OS X v10.6 it can be found here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4628?viewlocale=en_US. I recommend this section first:
Use these steps if your computer disconnects from its Wi-Fi network unexpectedly.
Check your range to the Wi-Fi router and reduce the effect of interference.If your computer is too far from your Wi-Fi router or your environment has too much Wi-Fi interference, then your computer may not detect the Wi-Fi network properly. The easiest way to check for range limits with your Wi-Fi network is to move your computer or your Wi-Fi router closer together and make sure that there are no obstructions (such as walls, cabinets, and so forth) between the router and your computer.See Potential sources of wireless interference for more information about interference and solutions.
Try connecting to a different Wi-Fi network. If your computer works fine when connected to a different Wi-Fi network, then the issue may be related to your network router or ISP. In that case, contact the manufacturer of your router or your ISP.
And this section if needed: Symptom: My Mac does not connect to the Internet.
Take care,
Sterling

Why do I keep getting kicked off wireless internet?

Network is ok, but I keep getting knocked off the internet

I have a Linksys Wireless network router, and it has been woring fine for years. As of a few days ago, out of the blue, I started getting knocked off the internet. The network connection stays constant, four bars, but the internet connection fails. Sometimes if I disable and re-enable the airport a few times, it will re-connect, sometimes I have to shut the lid and open it again, and sometimes I have to restart to get it to re-connect. It then stays connected from ten minutes to an hour, and the internet fails again. I have rebooted, cleared my 'favorite networks', and reset the PRAM, but to no avail. I know it is not the router, because my other laptop on the network never gets disconnected from the internet, just my mac. Help?

Yea, the other one is a PC. The static IP seems to have worked for now, Ill see how it works for the next few hours. Thanks.

Anyone have issues with their ipad staying connected to the Internet using an arris-5e12 router? I seem to be getting kicked off the Internet frequently

Anyone having trouble staying connected to the Internet using an Arris 5e12 router.?

Are you in an area where it doesn't pick much wifi signal up. If yes try to move your device nearer to the wifi connection box

I keep getting cut off the internet...why?

Just about every time I get online my wireless indicates that I do not have Internet access. Why does this keep happening?

Phone/device model?
Is the cellular data connection turned on?
Are you in an area with poor data signal?

Kicked off the internet

I keep getting kicked off the internet and once i got kicked from listening to the ipod it just goes striaght to home.
is anybody else having this problem?

I have read several posts of folks complaining about the same thing. Seems to be a bug. Try resetting the phone and trying again.

My computer keeps getting kicked off wifi and says there is a connection timeout.

My computer keeps getting kicked off the wifi- it's not s problem with the wifi because all my other wireless products are working just fine. What could the problem be? It will connect for about 5 seconds and then says the there is a connection timeout.

Delete the Wi-Fi connection in the Network preference pane, then recreate it with the same settings. Any difference?

IMac Internet Connection Issues (Why do I keep getting kicked off?)

Hi All.
I have a 24" aluminum iMac that doesn't like to stay connected to the internet via ethernet or Airport. I recently moved and am using a Clear modem that I am directly connected to via ethernet and the modem is functioning fine. My Mac will access the internet perfectly and then then next morning not have a connection at all. Diagnostics fail at Network Settings.
I have renewed my DHCP lease, restarted both comp and modem...jumped through all the hoops with a Clear rep. Still nothing. Not using any routers or 3rd party devices to connect unless using the Airport.
We have free internet where we live and my Airport will detect the router, but will not connect to the internet. The airport reads full signal strength, so there should be no issue. I have not changed my firewall or privacy settings, so there should be no issue there either. I did recently upgrade my Firefox application.
With both the Airport and ethernet I seemed to just be getting "kicked off" the internet. Each time I get kicked off, reconnecting is more of a chore...Please help Thank you in advance for any help you can provide!

Hi Rick.
I have Clear internet service, which does not run via cable or telephone line. I assume it is DSL. My Mac acted the same when I was on cable though, only the connection always come back after resetting the linksys router I had at the time. It only seems to drop the connection after waking from sleep mode.
I am using a standard ethernet cable. At times, in the Network portion of System Preferences, the status of my ethernet reads "unplugged" when the ethernet cord is still connected.
I double checked the connection speed within the network utility, as you suggested, and everything looks as it should.
The wireless situation...I do not have control over the router. It is free wireless via a linksys router in our apartment complex (only 5 or 6 units). I have never been able to connect to this but the other computers in the household pick up the signal perfectly.
Thanks for your help Rick. I appreciate it very much.
V.
