Any fix yet for wifi and ethernet disconnect?

Running a 17" MacBook Pro with intel. NEVER had a problem with internet connection through wifi or ethernet. Upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion and was dropping internet connection every 20 minutes or so. All other household devices worked fine including iPad, iPhone and other Mac laptop. Reinstalled Snow Leopard and problem is gone. Either give me a fix or return my $30.00.  I am very disappointed. Faulty operating systems are the reason I left Microsoft 5 years ago. C'mon guys, APPLE is better then that!

I appreciate your quick response. I was hoping for an Apple update before taking the time to reinstall Lion, try a few things and if unsuccessful, reinstall Snow Leopard again. My laptop is pretty much useless to me without reliable Internet connection. Thank you for the tip, I'll try it when I have some down time.

    If Join was on then your home wi-fi must be set to Non-Broadcast.  If you did not set this up (maybe your provider did) then you will need to find the Network Name they used, and any password they used.  The SSID is Security Set ID and to see more try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSID .  Basically it is the name used to identify your router/network.  A lot of times the installer will leave it set as LinkSys, or Broadcom or whatever the manufacturer set it as for default.  Your best bet is to get whoever installed it to walk you through how they set it up, giving you id's and passwords so you can get in.  HOWEVER, if you are not comfortable with this (if you set security wrong, etc.) you would be well ahead of the game to hire a local computer tech (networking) to get this working for you.  You can also contact the vendor of your router and get help (if it is still in warranty), or at least get copies of the manuals as pdf files.  Sorry I can't give you more help, I hope this gives you an idea where to go from here to find more.

  • Weird problem--lost network connectivity wifi and ethernet. Intermittent

    I'm posting to this board because my Time Capsule is my router and I suspect this is a router table issue since it affects both wifi and ethernet computers in my household.  It only affects the two computers on 10.8.3 at the moment. 
    Either just after waking from sleep or after working for quite some time on either of these computers, web sites will stop loading.  It gives an SSL error but they are not secure sites.  Mail stops coming in as well.  This is true for any browser.  The network connections test as "green" with the built-in diagnostics tools.  The only fix I have found is to either restart the machine or simply log out and log back in from the user account.  It is very frustrating because we are often working in real-time online.  Standard things we use that are affected are Google Docs for schoolwork etc. and my son's Minecraft playing.  It is especially frustrating for him because he could be in the middle of a "project" with some of his friends online and this essentially crashes what they were doing.
    I have called Apple but it is very hard to explain the issue in an effective manner.
    Both machines are logged in as managed accounts but unrestricted access.  I just don't like my primary account to be an admin account.  I don't want my kids to install stuff without my permission and the managed user allows me to inspect the logs of sites they have visited at the system level, even if they turn on private browsing in Safari or incognito in Chrome.
    Does anyone here have any ideas?

    It is possible that I upgraded the firmware on the router right when I upgraded the machine to Mountain Lion but I really don't think I did that. I also have a version of the OLD airport utility so I can see the Time Capsule in much more detail.
    Linda
    If it hasn't reminded you to upgrade the firmware in the last day or so it is already on 7.6.3.. Apple stuff is very insistent on upgrades..
    In the old utility (excellent) take it back to 7.6.1. And turn off weekly upgrade reminders.. this will reduce the instances of upgrade reminders to weekly instead of daily.

  • MB Air cannot see TC 1T '09 while connected via WiFi and Ethernet.

    I have a TC 1T 2009 7.4.1 that I have set up successfully with MB Pro and MB White. However I cannot set it up with MB Air v.1 which is connected to TC via WiFi AND Ethernet cable. Internet is fine (Safari) but no TM - when I run APU 5.4.1 it cannot discover the TC it is connected to.
    I tried connecting after hard-reset (poke/power on), it would see the TM but then hang forever reading the configuration. So I set it up with MB Pro and MB White and both are now working fine with TC/TM. Then I tried MB Air and it failed.
    The TC is connected via ethernet to Sagem router (bridged mode) which supplies WAN and DHCP, it has its own WiFi as well.

    And by the way, Hi Everyone, how rude of me not to greet you in the post.
    Thanks for any help!

  • Is there a fix yet for the no sound problem with lion on the iMac without having to restart every time I switch the computer on?

    Is there a fix yet for the no sound problem with lion on the iMac without having to restart every time I switch the computer on?

    Try booting in Safe Mode by holding the the shift key immediately after powering on your system. Safe boot mode will for a directory check of your startup volume, then load only the required kernal extensions (kext files), and deletes some cache files. Once the system boots into Safe Mode you can simply restart the system to see whether the issue has been resolved.
    If you still have the issue try resetting the SMC by shutting down the system and disconnecting the power cord for ~15 seconds, then reconnecting the power cord. Next, reset the parameter RAM (PRAM) by holding down the option-option-P-R keys after powering ON the system. Wait until the iMac restarts twice, then let the system boot normally.

  • Is there a fix yet for the loss of battery power after updating to Lion?

    Is there a fix yet for the loss of battery power after updating to Lion? I've done the cmd-opt-shift restart and it didn't help.  This problem has gone beyond annoying now - it is absolutely maddening!    What is Apple's official response????

    Chris: your friends are woefully uninformed, and no one should pay any attention to their bad advice.

  • 3 4s's echo my voice on a call on the handset alone.  Any fixes yet?

    I have 3 4s's  and a 4 that all echo my voice on a call on the handset alone.  The fact that the 4 did not do it before iOS 5 leads me to think its a software issue.  Any fixes yet?

    Please could someone help with my query.
    This morning I didn't realise my children had been playing with the phone, after taking them to school and returning 3 hours later I discovered that the phone was off the hook and still connected to a call. The call had been made to my parents who I know are away and have the 1571 service.
    The call had been connected for over 3 hours and was still counting the minutes on the handset, can anyone tell me if this call would have been automatically been cut after a certain amount of time ?
    I checked my bill online and there is no record yet of the call.
    Ive tried to phone BT this morning to enquire about this but unable to speak to an advisor without been sent around the call answering system.
    I am a BT anytime user so the first hour of the call shouldn't be charged but I am worried if further charges will be incurred or if there will be a 3 hour long message on my parents 1571 service.
    Many Thanks in advance for any help or pointers - anything will be appreciated.
    Little C
    A phone call to 1571 is chargeable like any other call. The 1571 service only has a finite storage capacity so it's possible that it cut off earlier than the 3 hours but any time the call was connceted will be charged for. 

  • I just bought a (used) Iphone 3gs for wife and it had angry birds and $89 Navigation on it (I paid extra for it).  Once updated and logged into my I-tunes it no longer works? How can I make those apps work?

    Apple doesn't have anything to do with this other than enforcing the DRM protection. The developers of this content expect to be paid if someone wants to use their content. When you purchase content in the app store, you purchase a license to use the content. This license does not permit you or anyone else to resell or give this content away. The individual you purchased the phone from simply does not have the right to sell or give away any purchased content on the phone. You were deceived.

    Hi Denisefromjoetowm,
    When you attempt to connect your iPhone 6 to your car via Bluetooth, how far does it get?
    Glad you updated your iPhone.  There are other things to test for, see:

  • Any Fixes Yet?

    I have some very expensive (to me) foreign language training CDs that worked fine on my old imac but won't run on my intel based Macbook Pro. I understand that there is a difference between OS Classic and the Rosetta based system. Do you have any insight on newly developed software that will allow reformatting or reading the old CDs. I hate to have to go through the expense of replacing them...almost cheaper to but a PC just to run the apps.

    Any Fixes Yet?
    Sorry, but applications that require Mac OS 9, or Classic, will not run an Intel Mac.
    This is not something that is likely to change.

  • PriceSlider content item always having a fixed value for 'sliderMax' and 'sliderMax'

    Hi,
    I am using ATG-10.2
    I am trying to create the navigation with invoke assembler call (to contentCollection '/content/Shared/Guided Navigation') Everything goes well, except the price slider.
    sliderMin and sliderMax values are always having fixed values, even though there are products with higher prices than this range.
    Ex: This is how my content item looks like
    {enabled=true, @type=PriceSlider, name=Price, filterCrumb=com.endeca.infront.cartridge.model.RangeFilterBreadcrumb@d45e275, sliderMax=1500, sliderMin=0, priceProperty=sku.activePrice}
    But in this search result, there are product which have prices even beyond 10,000
    I hope that the properties I am accessing are correct (contentItem.sliderMin and contentItem.sliderMax).
    Does anyone has seen this before??
    Any solution to overcome this issue. ??

  • Let applications choose between WiFi and Ethernet

    Hi Forum,
    So basicly I'm connected to a secure ethernet line with limitations, besides that I'm also connected to wifi with no limitations.
    I want to let apps choose between wifi and ethernet, is there any way to do so ?

    (A repost of something I posted elsewhere - trying to help others)
    If it helps you at least a little, in the Podcast App, playlists are now called "My Stations". You can add entire podcasts to Stations (and create new Stations), or you can add individual episodes to the "on-The-Go" station.
    Not intuitive, and not as good as having the podcasts back with the music, but it gets the job done till Apple listens to the users again and changes this back.
    Cheers!
