8120 and 8320 not staying connected to the router

I have an 8120 pearl and have had no problems with it staying connected to the router till about 2 weeks ago. Now it bounces back and forth from router to the tower and if my husband is home it our phones seem to block each other. He has a blackberry curve 8320. Only once has both phones gotten on the router and stayed there. Now we've already deleted all wifi connections and started over. Our wifi connection is secure/password protected. We've unplugged the modem and router and allowed them to reset. We've taken the batteries out of our phones. We've turned off the mobile network so the phone has no choice but to connect to the router and it won't most of the time. Last night while talking to my husband on the 8120 it dropped the router mid-call. We've talked to tech support at tmobile, hotspot@home and blackberry. So now I'm asking here for help.
Has anyone had these issues and how can they be resolved? The router has no problems staying connected to the Wii and the two laptop computers. It's only the phones and only in the last couple of weeks. We have a Lynksis 2.4 ghz router. The only difference between it and the router tmobile sells is the tmobile sticker.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi and welcome to the forums!
Maybe you could use this as a checklist for your WiFi
problems.

Is anyone having a problem with the new iPad (Gen. 3) not staying connected to the charger? It seems to ALWAYS get jiggled loose and no longer be charging. My iPad 1 has no issue but I can't browse Internet w/o new iPad unplugging. Horrible!

I notice that my new IPad (3rd generation) will not stay connected to the power cord at all, I'm not exagerating, if I plug it in and browse the Internet without fail it will become unplugged and I will have to push the plug back in (Ba-beep). Ive actually grown to despise that sound when you plug your iPhone or iPad in because it reminds me of how much money I spent on something that PHYSICALLY will not charge while I'm using it.
I know the problem with it holding a charge while in use, I get it, the screen is amazing and it takes a lot to run the display, however, it is unacceptable to me that I can't even keep the thing plugged in while I'm using it. I can not even leave it on my Cal King bed overnight because I will wake up in the morning to find that the plug has been jiggled loose in a corner, so it's still attached but not making a connection thus not being charged.
I love the 4GLTE from Verizon and I love the iPad, but I'm actually using my 1st generation IPad while I am at home so I can leave my new $900 iPad on a table to charge free of incident so I can use the 4G while I'm away from wifi during the day. I have been getting more upset about this because I can not even use the Griffin extended cord to charge the iPad and be far from the plug because only the original apple sync/charge cord will have a better shot at staying in. Absolutely none of my non apple cables will stay in the iPad 3 while having it in my hands.
The plug is at an angle, unlike the first iPad, not sure about the iPad 2. Please let me know if they have same issue.
If anyone else is having this problem with the Gen 3 iPad please let me know because I'm tempted to do something about it with apple and I'm hoping that I just for some reason have a bad cable receiver or something and maybe I can get a replacement and enjoy the iPad as I had expected to. There is no reason why I should be even using my first iPad and I have friends that want to buy it but I am not selling it because I'm unable to sell it because I can't handle the new iPad while it's plugged in, that is ridiculous if it's a common issue so please let me know!

Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
Thanks again!

My Macbook will not stay connected to the internet, while my Dell computer works fine. Why? What can I do?

My sister and I both have Macbook Pros that will not stay connected to our internet (wifi). Our dell computers and HP computers in the household work great- but both of the Macs do not stay connected, and often say "you are not connected to the internet". I have saved our wifi name to the computer so it is registered as our home network- but it still will not work fast or stay connected for long periods of time. Is there a setting I need to change, or anything I can do? Very disappointed with how the Mac works with our wifi.

Mac's will have trouble connecting to WEP Encrpyted and/or "hidden" / "invisible " networks.
OpenWEP (insecure) or WPA2(AES) is the only secure standard.
..WiFi, Internet problems, possible solutions
WiFi security issues, at home and WiFi hotspots
Also make sure the date and time are current and updating to Apple's servers for your location in System Preferneces > Date and Time. Then reboot and reconnect.
If your still having trouble after this, take both machines back to the store for a free evaluation.

Macbook Pro will not stay connected to the internet

It appears that I am not alone in this problem, but none of the troubleshooting is helping.
There seems to be no trigger, but randomly 0-10 minutes the internet stops working on the Macbook. Sometimes restarting the wireless helps, most of the time it does not.
I know that my network/internet are working fine because all of our other devices stay connected with the Macbook drops. Is there a easy fix that I missed?
Thanks,
Mike

Please test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
Take the applicable steps in this support article. The Wireless Diagnostics program generates a large file of information about your system, which would be used by Apple Engineering in case of a support incident. Don't post the contents here.
Step 2
Disconnect all USB 3 devices. If you don't know which are USB 3, disconnect all USB devices except keyboard and mouse.
Step 3
If you're not using a wireless keyboard or trackpad, disable Bluetooth by selecting Turn Bluetooth Off from the menu with the Bluetooth icon. If you don't have that menu, open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked Show Bluetooth in menu bar. Test. If you find that Wi-Fi works better with Bluetooth disabled, you should use the 5 GHz Wi-Fi band. Your router may not support it; in that case, you need a new router.
Step 4
Open the Energy Saver pane in System Preferences and unlock the settings, if necessary. Select the Power Adapter tab, if there is one. Uncheck the box marked
Wake for Wi-Fi network access
if it's checked.
Step 5
Open the Network pane in System Preferences and make a note of your settings in the Wi-Fi service. It may be helpful to take screenshots of the various tabs in the preference pane. If the preference pane is locked, unlock it by clicking the padlock icon and entering your administrator password. Delete Wi-Fi from the service list on the left by selecting it and clicking the minus-sign button at the bottom. Then recreate the service by clicking the plus-sign button and following the prompts.
Step 6
In the Wi-Fi settings, select
Advanced... ▹ TCP/IP ▹ Configure IPv6: Link-local
Click OK and then Apply.
Step 7
Reset the System Management Controller.
Step 8
Reset the PRAM.
Step 9
Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
Step 10
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.

My ipad will not stay connect to the internet?

My ipad will not stay connect to thier internet. I have to turn ipad off and back on then it will connect for a short time them I have to turn it off and back on to reconnect?

1. Turn router off for 30 seconds and on again, this will refresh the IP address of your iPad
2. Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
3. Try adding your SSID and Password manually
Settings>Wi-Fi>Other...>Other Network

WTR110 - Connecting from Vista or Windows 7 card kills not only connection but the router!

Hi,
I never had problems with my XP laptop to connect to my wireless network on my WRT110 (using Intel Centrino) but my other laptop, a Vostro 1000 used to work when it had Windows XP, now that I've installed Vista it doesn't work anymore, I always get limmited connectivity, not only that but it also drops the internet connection on the router, all other computers wired or not wired loose internet connection, the router also becomes inacessible by wire. I recently installed Windows 7 on a pc that had XP and a Netgear WG311T and the same problem happens, it not only does not acquire an address but kills the router connection, how is that possible?

Would suggest you to try upgrading the firmware of the router & then reset the router in such a way that power light is blinking on the router. Also, try doing a complete network power cycle ie., unplug the power cable from the modem & from the router. Then, plug the power cable to the modem first once the lights are solid green you could plug the power cable to the router & then your issue will be resolved.

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.

MacBooks and iPhones not staying connected to wifi.

When Yosemite came out I downloaded it to my Macbook Pro with retina and I've had no problem with it. Now when I did it to my dad's non retina Macbook Pro, he seems to be having trouble staying connected. Whenever he's online he keeps telling me he keeps getting booted off and has to go and reselect the wireless only to be kicked off again. As of lately that same problem has carried over to my iPhone and sometime it will jump back on the wifi or it will eventually prompt me to select the network again and it will reconnect. I'm not sure why this is doing this all of a sudden and wonder if their's any solutions. Also, I have another question up following the same type of question but it has to do with the wireless and I'll leave that down below. But I wonder if it's too many devices? There's my iPhone, my mom's iPhone, her iPad, my Mac, my dad's Mac, his phone, his work laptop, an Xbox One, a PS4, and possibly his cell phone. You could say we're pretty connected. Out of all those devices connected, only my mom's iPad, my phone, the Xbox and PS4, alongside my dad's Mac are the things mainly being used. The other iPhone and work laptop and cell phone aren't on the network frequently and are usually in sleep mode, if not turned off.

Try the basics first:
Change your router channel number. Most times this works & is all you have to do.
Disconnect & reconnect your modem. unplug it for about 10 seconds. Plug it back in. Do the same for Apple’s routers. Wait for everything to reboot.
System Preferences>Network
Click the Assist Me button.
In the next window that pops up, click the Diagnostic button & do the necessary.

My iMac (2009 model) will not stay connected to the internet either via wifi or by ether net.

All other devices (2 PC laptops, 1 ipad, 1iphone, Apple TV and Airport express) connect just fine and stay connected. Deeply annoyed.

I was having the same issue with my 2011 iMac running lion, and it may be somewhat of a less technical resolution but it solved my problem...
Go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES
Then to NETWORK
Click ADVANCED
Under WI-FI there should be a box with your preferred networks
Make sure your personal network (the one you want to be connected to at all times) is listed FIRST.
Just click and drag to rearrange the order.
When I turned on my iMac for the first time, it picked up a weak network without a password and always tried to connect to it. I changed my personal network to the top of the list and now my iMac connects to that one after I leave my computer for a while.
Hope this helps

CB50,
It is best that you create your own thread. If your issue is with your iPad than please create it in either the IOS forum or iPad forums. If your problem is with an Intel based Mac then use the Intel iMac forums or OS X forum for the version of OS X you have installed on your computer.
What you are doign is called threadjacking, attempting to take over someone elses thread. This is considered rude which I am sure is not your intent. To locate the correct forum please click Apple Support Communities at the top of this page and navigate to the correct forum.
Good luck.

Headphones will not stay connected to the jack on my macbook

My computers headphone jack works, when something is plugged in it outputs audio fine but it isnt locking in so if i touch the cable and it moves a fraction of a inch then it disconnects and goes out my computer speakers. Do i need to go to a mac store and get my computer replaced?

The plugs on headphones usually have poor dimensional tolerances compared to the digital audi jack in a Mac computer. I'd try other devices first.
If they do not work either, then take it to an Apple Store. Something could be blocking the jack. If you've had the computer longer than about 14 days, they will not replace it, only repair it.
