After updating to 5.2.1 my network connection is sporadic/fails.

Finally ran the update to 5.2.1 this morning. No problems with the installation. Now, my network connection cuts out in the middle of programs and then cannot be restored, even after restarting appleTV. At the moment, my network is up and running (I'm typing this on it!), but the network test in Settings fails. I cannot access Hulu+ or Netflix fail with AppleTV. I am connected via ethernet and both IP and DNS are configured automatically. (Which always worked fine before the update.) I have changed NO settings.
I did get it to connect briefly after the update, but then while watching a video it cut out and cannot be restored. Is this a new ethernet problem?
I am NOT currently trying to run AirPlay. I am simply accessing via the AppleTV remote.

I just posted this question (same problem).
Last week I had an update for Apple TV (3). (version 5.2.1.) Now the streaming is so slow (or not working at all) that I am even not able to play music. Playing movies became total impossible. And sometimes the complete connection is lost. Even my computer is slowing down (on the internet), perhaps because something is happening between my computer and Apple TV. It became a total disaster and I do not know how to solve this. Further nothing changed. I have the same WiFi router, Apple TV is still on the same place and I have a signal strength of 80% on Apple TV.

    hit enter, restart PC, open iTunes. Hopefully fixed.

  • After updating to 4.3 I can't connect to wi-fi because the "internet speeds are too slow". How much speed does this require?

    After updating to 4.3 I can't connect to wi-fi because the "Internet speeds are too slow". So what speed does it need?

    I called tech support and I got the same **** canned response, backup and reset to factory settings.  Yeah right!  Everything was fine until Verizon shoved the software update down my throat.  I finally unchecked the box in Wi-Fi settings for auto network switch.  However, I still get the "Your Internet connection is unstable" warning no matter what Wi-Fi connection I hit.
    In a related story, I received a new or refurbished phone as my original SIII had AC/charging connection issues.  I called probably three times to attempt to back up my data, went into two stores in attempts to have them transfer the information over, and all were too incompetent and inept to assist me.  Only when talking to someone about this Wi-Fi issue, did someone actually know how to back up everything.  Of course by this time, I had to send the new phone back because Verizon charged me $400 before I got everything squared away.  What a colossal waste of my time!

    Hi christeag,
    The only thing I can identify as an issue is that your Windows Firewall is running and iTunes is not enabled in it, so this may be the source of your issue. Here is an article for you that will help you rectify this situation:

  • Trying to update keep getting a message "the ipod software update server could not be contacted Network connection could not be established" using mac OSX. done this with 2 ipod touches??

    trying to update 2 ipods but when I go through the process it says "The ipod software update server could not be contacted" "Network connection could not be established". One of the ipods is locked and I don't remember password.

    Here's what you can do in case of the forgotten password:
    Connect in recovery mode and restore, you'll get the option to rest the passcode during this process:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore and iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    Check this post for the network problem:

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    If no joy...
    Reset all settings
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
    This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.
    If the issue persists...
    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and Restore

  • Can not update iphone firmware using iTunes "The network connection timed out"

    Hello,
    I can not update the iphone firmware using iTunes.
    Messagte displayed
    "There was a problem downloading the software fo the iPhone. The network connection timed out.
    Also seen stopped error -3259
    I have run network connectivity tests from iTunes and All Tests passed.
    Can anyone help?
    Thank you,
    Joan

    Did you make sure it was the exact file for your device and the latest version? I just downloaded the latest file for my iPhone4, put it in the folder I mentioned above and it ran the install versus downloading the file. This problem where it times out after downloading is a big Bug within iTunes that has been there ever since IOS 7.0 was released. I wished these apple developers would just fix iTunes. There are a ton of complaints about this issue. I sure miss Steve Jobs running this business, I really feel like it's gone down hill after he left.
    I hope this helps! 
    Regards.

    Error 1604
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
