Airport after 10.4.2 Will Not Connect after Sleep

After my iBook G4 goes to sleep it will not reconnect to the internet.
It shows connection.
It shows me the IP.
It will not allow me to do anything online.
I have to quit all internet prorams mail, safari, firefox etc...
Then I have to reset the location over and over and try until it works. Sometimes right off the bat sometimes it takes 10 minutes. This is completely frustrating since even the network diagnostic is showing internet, ISP, etc.
I've rebuilt my keychain.
I've rebuilt the WEP password
I've changed my computer name to be one word no spaces.
I need help! My wife cannot use this computer if it won't connect without interaction. I never had this issue before 10.4.2 was installed.

Henry,
Thank your for the helpful link.
I created a new location based on the info in the link you provided.
It worked.
Now, the iMac G5 rejoins the network automatically after sleep or restart.
I don't know if level 4's need point, you and Frank C. (author of the info at http://discussions.info.apple.com/webx/.68ae4ead) just got some more from me.

    IPSec VPN brings up login box but will not connect after entering password.  Have tried this on both IPAD and IPhone 4.  Can anyone help?

    Uggh, it's so frustrating! I've googled every search phrase I can think of and this seems to be the only thread describing this exact issue. I'm always automatically logged into Facebook on my MBP but just to be sure I logged out and back in and it worked fine.
    I gotta say, I wasn't a fan of the Droid I had preceding this iPhone, and from what I hear the iPhone app for FB is a thousand times better - not that I'd know personally because I can't log in!! - but I could always access my FB account on the droid. Just sayin...

  • Ethernet will not connect after installing latest Security Update.

    I installed the latest security update, restarted my computer, and found that it now will not connect to the internet. I get the message "Could not find a PPPoE server". I have checked all of my settings, restarted the computer again, turned the modem off and on again, etc., but nothing helps. I know that there is nothing wrong with the modem and server because I am connected through the same DSL modem to this computer (a mac mini). It would seem that the security update has done something unhelpful! Any ideas?
    BTW, the ibook does not have a wireless card and I had not installed 2 earlier wireless updates. I only installed this one because it said "recommended for all users".
    iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Hello
    It seems that the update set your preferences to "use PPPOe" while you where using "TCP/IP".
    Go to "System Preferences" and enter the pane whose icon is named "Réseau" in french (maybe "Network" in english.
    Reset your settings to "TCP/IP".

  • Server L2TP  VPN will not connect after OS X restart

    I have configured a L2TP VPN service in Server v4.1 running in Yosemite v10.10.3 on an OWC 480 GB SSD in a MB Mini late 2012. After any OS X restart the VPN service starts up normally but the client on my iOS8 phone, or clients on my three other devices, iMac, MB Air or MB Pro (all running the latest Yosemite) cannot connect to it.  They report service unavailable.  However, if I turn the service off and then on again in the Server app, everything works as planned and continues to work until the next restart. All the other Server services configured (Website, Caching and Time Machine) work without having perform the off then back on switch after Server app starts up. 
    This is generally not a problem but if I am abroad and the Mini reboots itself following a power cut, I lose my VPN service until I can either get someone to do the off then on switch or attempt it myself with Team Viewer VNC. Has anyone any idea how I can force the VPN service to work straight after the Server app starts?
    Thanks

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later. I don't recommend running it on older versions of OS X. It will do no harm, but it won't do much good either.
    Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a general summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a particular line of text to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    These are not specific instructions; just an overview. The details are in parts 7 and 8 of this comment. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time.
    5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
    You may have started up in safe mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. Load this linked web page (on the website "Pastebin.") The title of the page is "Diagnostic Test." Below the title is a text box headed by three small icons. The one on the right represents a clipboard. Click that icon to select the text, then copy it to the Clipboard on your computer by pressing the key combination command-C.
    If the text doesn't highlight when you click the icon, select it by triple-clicking anywhere inside the box. Don't select the whole page, just the text in the box.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window to activate it. Paste from the Clipboard into the window by pressing command-V, then press return. The text you pasted should vanish immediately.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
    [Process started]
            Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
            Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
            The test results are on the Clipboard.
            Please close this window.
    [Process completed]
    The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
    Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it and go to the next step. You'll have incomplete results, but still something.
    12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "The message contains invalid characters." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak for themselves, not for me. The test itself is harmless, but whatever else you're told to do may not be. For others who choose to run it, I don't recommend that you post the test results on this website unless I asked you to.

  • HP Officejet once was set up wireless, and worked, after one month, it will not connect to router?

    I have been working with this new HP all in one wireless printer, and was working great, then one day out of the blue it stopped. I can't print out a thing, and when checking on why it stopped, it first printed out that it was not connected to the radio connection, which I thought was Bogus, then after working on it a little more, I went to the wps on the router and held down the WPS, as was requested for 3 seconds, but when I returned to the printer, it all looked as though it was downloading until it got down to 7 seconds, then it stopped and refuses to connect to the router. Does Anyone have any Ideas on how to fix this issue or, tell me what I maybe doing wrong???? This is Now driving me insane. I am connected to an HP Computor, it appears that the router maybe the problem, so I need HELPPPPPPPPPPPPP! Please, thank's to anyone who can suggest the right fix for this printer.

    Hello thesuperdude,
    Welcome to the HP Support forums.  I gather that you have run into several issues with your Officejet printer since you received an error about the radio connection.
    To better understand the issue, please provide some further information:
    What make/model/product number of HP printer do you have? Guide to finding your product number
    How is the printer connected now (USB cable, ethernet, or wireless)?
    Are you getting any error messages? If yes, what is the error message and where are they being displayed?
    Is the printer plugged directly into a wall outlet?
    What operating system are you using on your computer (Windows 7, Mac 10.8, or Windows 8, etc)?
    Have you installed the full feature software and driver onto your computer?
    Thank you.  
    Regards,

  • After installing windows 7, will not connect to my router

    I installed windows 7, 64-bit on my macbook late 2009 model. After installing, it would not connect to my router. However, it did connect under Mac OS X and it also worked with my roommates laptops, but not my macbook running windows 7. I searched everywhere and could not find a solution. Tried updating drivers (updated to bootcamp for windows 64 bit, 3.1 and then 3.2). Tried setting it up manually. Also, did not work. Does anyone have any solutions for this? It seems a lot of people are also having this issue.

    For wired or wireless if you have not already done it,
    1) Remove router cable from Modem,
    2) Unplug Router power,
    3) Unplug Modem power,
    4) Wait a few minutes
    5) Replug Router power,
    6) Replug router cable to Modem
    7) Replug Modem power
    Also router may in combo with more modern (if wireless?) PC have security (password setup) requirement.

  • Ipod touch 2g bluetooth will not connect after syncing with iTunes

    Had my ipod touch 2nd gen working with Bluetooth pairing to my Jambox and Boss DVD player and previously had worked with my AudioEngine Bluetooth device. Had a problem with musc files giving me an 1309 error message, was able to just select music manually without sync until this problem came up.
    Had to initiate the auto Sync with iTunes which removed the error message for Music and since then my Bluetooth pairing has stopped. Have ver 4.21 and the Bluetooth shows the bluetooth mac address.
    The Love is gone for this device. It will not pair up with devices that were working under bluetooth last week.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    - On the iPod try resetting network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. You will have to repair Bt defive s and rejoin wifi networks
    - Reset the BT devices and repair.  You have to see the BT device manual for how to reset them.

  • Ipod classic 80gb will not connect after update to itunes 7.5

    I just updated to itunes 7.5 and i cannot get the device to sych anymore. it connects and then automatically ejects after I plug it in. I still have another computer with itunes 7.4 and i will use that until i get it fixed. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes to no avail. I did get it to connect for a while last night, but today it just keeps ejecting. I had charged it fully last night before getting it to connect to the one w/ 7.5. Maybe it is going into this thing someone had where it is drawing too much power. Good God, this is my first apple, and for the life of me I will never buy another. What a bunch of crap. I never had any problems like this with my Creative Labs. Too bad I broke it.

    I had the following situation: I`m running Vista on a Sony Laptop with iTunes 7.3 and a 60GB Ipod connected. Everthing works fine!
    Than I bought a 80GB Ipod, updated to Itunes 7.5 - and nothing works! I have 42Gb music in my library.
    I tried everything, spend some nights to get this thing running - nothing.
    I´m "glad" to hear that I´m not the only one having problems.
    But my question is: What is Apple doing? No comments in this forum, nothing on the website. What am I supposed to do now? Spending €250 and waiting for the day it will work? Doesn´t Apple now that there are not alone any more? That there are competitors? I´m really angry!

  • My airport extreme is working but will not connect to my mac pro

    my airport extreme is working and all other devices connect except my mac pro computer,  How do I resolve this problem?

    Hi fdrussell,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  Were your Airport Extreme and Mac Pro communicating earlier?  If so, what changed?  
    First try shutting down the computer, and recycling the power to the Airport Extreme.  Then start the Mac Pro and see if that resolves the issue.  
    If needed, perform a Hard reset of the Airport Extreme:

  • Wireless network will not connect after Security update 2006 06

    Downloaded recent security update. Ran Disc Utility before and after. Unable to connect to my wireless network (Netgear ) which always works without a problem. After trying to connect using Internet Connection Utility I tried Key Chain First Aid and also reset the key chain. No help.
