Apple devices drop wireless connection

Hello,
I've had Infinity for a few weeks now and every time I use any Apple device, such as an iPod Touch, iPhone or iPad, after a few minutes of loading web pages, updating an app or watching a video it'll disconnect and I'll have to reconnect it again but I don't have to put the password in. it only happens to my Apple devices, wireless works on the PC, laptop, consoles and my Android phone. all the devices are on the latest iOS and the hub I have is the 3.0 one.
any help will be grateful. thanks

Best thing to do maybe is buy a better router. Unless you have BT Vision.

  • IMac and other Apple devices lose wireless connections

    We have two Apple iMacs, a MacBook Pro, an iPad and iPad2 and they all intermittently lose their Wireless connection to my network.  All of my PC's work just fine and stay connected.  This is funny... the MacBook Pro booted to Windows 7 Pro stays connected, but the MacOS doesn't.
    It appears to be a problem with DNS, because if you ping to a remote host, you get a response back.  Also, if you put an IP address into Safari on the iMac and MacBook then a site will come online.  However, the iPads just say "You are not connected" while in Safari.  I have verified that I'm using the correct DNS addresses provided by my ISP, and I have a Windows Domain server running DHCP/DNS on the inside of my firewall.
    We recently moved and were issued a new wireless router by our ISP.  I was thinking that might be the problem, but then we don't have the problem with any of the Windows PCs.  This router is manufactured by Arris.  My other router was a Cisco that worked like a champ.
    Turning off the Airport feature and turning it back on restores Web Browsing capability.  Interestingly, if I have a remote desktop session running, it never gets disconnected even when the web stops working.  Again, symptoms point to DNS issues.

    If you feel it's DNS related then change the DNS setting to:
    1. System preferences
    2. Network
    3. Click Advanced
    4. Click DNS tab
    5. Click + sign
    6. Add 208.67.222.222
    7. Click + sign
    8. Add 208.67.220.220
    9. Click OK.
    10. Exit System Preferences

  • Apple Devices Dropping Off Wireless Network

    Hello, I have recently deployed a wireless network using a WLC 2504 with 21 Light APs. All seems fine except that
    Apple Devices drop their connections every 15 minutes or so. A couple of minutes later they can reconnect but
    obviously something is wrong.
    Many Thanks

    Only Apple device exhibit this kind of behaviour?
    What kind of Apple devices?  Mac laptops?  iPad, iTouch, iPhone?
    Have you seen this behaviour from, say, non-Apple devices?  Android?  Windows laptops?
    What are the signal strengths when this happens?
    Do you have Aironet IE enabled?
    How far are the clients from the WAP(s)?

  • E3200 - Dropping wireless connection on the Mac

    Pros: Gig Eth switch, no front-facing indicator lights, familiar web interface...
    Cons: WiFi Protected Setup doesn't belong. Continually drops wireless connections to my Mac Book Pro (but none of my other devices), which worked just fine on the E3000 this unit replaced and works perfectly on other WiFi networks. REALLY SLOW web interface - average time to move from one page to the next is something north of 9 seconds. Again, never a problem with the E3000 that this unit replaced. Price? I wouldn't complain about price if this thing actually worked as expected.
    Other Thoughts: I'm hoping it's just a flaky/defective unit and not indicative of the overall quality of newer Linksys products. Firmware isn't the issue - it's running the latest one from Linksys' site.

    First of all please verify that you have got a 802.11n card in your computer. New generation routers (i.e. E3200) speaks an entirely different language with 802.11g cards, so while those adapters can work with the E3200, but they are not optimized to provide good performance. It is like having to translate from one language to another in real time when going from N to G.
    Well, there are few things you should keep in mind with regards to N routers:
    1) For the best possible speeds, you need to be using WPA2-AES as your security mode. Any other security mode will see your speed/range capped.
    Any G devices in your wireless network will tend to hamper the performance of your overall network.
    Ensure that your router is running the latest firmware from homesupport.cisco.com The new firmware includes performance enhancements and fixes.
    The router by default uses a channel setting of auto, which means that it would keep switching channels depending on the interference. I’d recommend you set it to a fixed channel. Usually, 1, 3, 6 and 9 give you the best performance depending on your environment of course. I’d suggest you try different channels, observing each for a while, to see which gives you the best performance. You can follow the link here on how to change channels.

  • WRT54G keeps dropping wireless connections

    Wired connection to the router works fine. But it drops all the wireless devices (PC, phone, tablet) multiple times each day, sometimes only 30-60 minutes after reconnecting. Power cycling the router "fixes" the router and allows reconnection. There are 2 topics in the FAQ section that looked helpful:
    Getting poor or no signal from a wireless router
    Top causes of dropping wireless connection on a Linksys router
    but clicking on those does not bring up anything. Anyone know where to find those 2 FAQs? Any other ideas for what might be causing this?

    Hi. You may need to do firmware upgrade on your router as is the case these days for legacy routers.  What is the hardware version by the way? You can find it at the bottom of the router right after the tiny print of the model. Access homesupport.cisco.com and search for the model. When you get the router's page click downloads below support sections and from there you have to select the hardware version, once you do that you will see the firmware version for the said hardware version. Usually it is a bin file when you save it and you can open that one on the router's page. Once you access your router's page go to Administration and click Firmware Upgrade and select the file you downloaded from the website. Make sure that you do this upgrade with a computer plugged-in to the router. When upgrade is done, you do a 30-second reset and unplug/replug the router also for 30 seconds. You may refer to this link http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=80&vw=1&articleid=4030.
    As for the link for Getting poor or no signal from a wireless router, I found this one from Cisco's public kb site but not able to for the other one but I believe they are related.
    http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=d9a3b1b2039741948a2365b053a93ea8_3759.xml&pid=80&r...
    Try to change channels as well on your router: you can try 1,3,6,9. Make sure the router is placed at least 3 feet above ground and check the antenna as well if it is still okay.

  • WRT330N Dropping Wireless Connections

    I have a WRT330N which I have been using for a while with a couple of wired connections and 3 wireless connections. 
    It has been working great for months, but has suddenly started dropping wireless connections.  I basically haven't touch the thing since I set it up and it has worked flawlessly. 
    Any idea why it would suddenly start behaving this way?  Nothing else about the environment has changed either.
    Could it be dying?
    BTW, it will drop connections with a system literally sitting right next to it.. so distance isn't an issue.

    Try to upgrade the firmware of the router .
    And also do not use any electronic devices in the range of router .

  • Does Apple TV support wireless connection to the new MacBook Pro retina in an extended display mode?

    Does Apple TV support wireless connection to the MacBook Pro retina display in an extended display mode? What is the output resolution and is sound also transmitted across?

    SB1983, by extended display do you mean mirror?  All MBP since early 2011 support it if they are running OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.  The resolution will depend on your Apple TV (2 Gen is 720 and 3rd Gen 1080) and wifi, it will lose some quality but I find it minimal.  It does also mirror the sound.

  • WRK54G dropping wireless connections

    Hi,
    I have a WRK54 firmware Version 1.56.01
    It keeps dropping wireless connections and can't get back on, requires restarting (power) the router to allow wireless working again.
    I have set the MTU to 1300
    Doesn't allow me to update the firmware, error "Upgrade action is not finish!! Upgrade file pattern error."
    Using Windows XP SP2 
    Any ideas?
    Regards,
    Sercan

    Are you trying to Upgrade the firmware on your Router from your Wireless Computer? If yes, then you can Hardwired your computer to the Router using an Ethernet Cable and then try to upgrade the firmware of your Router....
    If still you are Unable to upgrade the firmware on your Router, then you need to Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable..... Now you can try to upgrade the firmware on your Router. 

  • Dropping wireless connection with Apple Wireless Keyboard

    I've got a new bluetooth chip in my iMac from support at my location, a new wireless keyboard and I'm still having issues. Wireless connection dropped 6 times typing this one sentence. Aaargh. I've been busy with this ever since I bought the computer. On irregular intervals (absolutely no regularity whatsoever) the computer loses connection with my Apple Wireless Keyboard. So if I have a new iMac, with a new bluetooth chip and a new keyboard how come this issue is still an issue? It's driving me mad. And possibly the guys at the centre as well.

    Hi mvoltage
    Do you have any appliances with motors or other mobil telephone devices setup near the iMac?
    Both motor flux fields and Cordless Phone Base Stations can and will interfere with the operation of the iMac's wifi and airport signals.

  • ATV keeps dropping wireless connection, loses connection information...

    Hello.
    I'm running the latest OS for ATV. Every other day I'm noticing, when I flip over to my ATV, that's it's lost its connection to my wireless network. I realize this may be the result of interference, but when the ATV drops its connection, does it also "forget" network connection information? I mean, I can understand dropping a connection because of interference, but shouldn't it remember the connection information, so when the connection is available again, it just reconnects?
    I never had this issue with OS 2.x and only started with the OS 3.x upgrade.
    I don't have the option to hardwire the ATV.
    Regards,
    Kristin.

    Since I went to 5ghz wireless N on Apple Extreme device none of my 4 ATVs have lost connection. That was 18 months ago. Before then I too experienced frequent and frustrating loss of signal problems. I picked up a used Apple Extreme on Amazon for about $100 and set it up in the basement, near the center of the house. It communicates well through 2 floors and multiple walls.

  • All (only) Apple devices dropping home wifi. What do I do?

    All my Apple devices (2006 iMac, 2012 iMac, Apple TV and son's iPhone 4 - when he's over) dropping Wi-Fi.  What gives? Window 7, Window 8, Android tablets, Android phone, HP network Printer and even blackberry playbook and phones have no issues.  Only the Apple devices!!  Yes we have a lot of devices here but never more than 4 are ever here so not all devices are working at the same time.
    I'm at my wit's end.  It first happened when I pulled out my (never had any issue with) 2006 iMac for my son to use while he's staying with us.  As I was updating everything, it kept dropping off the network.  Now, my 2012 iMac has started doing it too as well as my (3r gen) Apple TV.  I can't even watch one TV show (42 minutes-'ish) without having to reset 4 or 5 times.
    Why only Apple!!!  I have my 3TB digital collection connected up to my iMac and often watch movies from (i.e.) the bedroom using a Win 7 Laptop hooked to a TV pulling the file from it.  Never used to be an issue but now I can hardly ever connect to it because it dropped off the network.
    Can anyone give me actual USEFUL information on how to fix this?

    Oh.. and Drew... I have no idea what you're talking about.  I have no clue as to how to "record" nor what "deauth" is  :-(  though, among the people I know, I am, at times, the most knowledgeable computer geek I know but I really only know very little.  Sorry.
    It's not the first time
    Deauth packets are used to tell a device to 'get of the network'. They don't require an authenticated connection, so anyone with a wifi card can use them to spoil your day. There are Linux tools that have the ability to target Apple devices by MAC address. It's tough to test unless you can run an app to see if there are lots of deauths being sent to your devices (I haven't tried on OS X, hence my question to the other users). There should be a way to get better logging of wifi disconnects on OS X. This covers it iirc…

    Since Android is also disconnecting too it's probably something else. You'd need to check for overlapping channels from other networks & do all the regular wifi debugging. iStumbler can help you see other networks (& overlapping channels).
    It appears the wireless diagnostics has the ability to help too, I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned…

    Read through that it should give you some tools to see what is happening.

  • Macbook keeps dropping wireless connection

    Hi 
    this is my first post so be gentle with me LOL
    I have had many issues with BT over the last 8 months, mostly due to the speed I had in my area (was 0.45MB when wired at one point), but I recently started to have an issue with the laptops in the house.
    I have 2 teenagers and luckily for them we all have Macbooks as I have given them my old ones when I have upgraded I am using a macbook pro (less than a year old & wireless N) and my eldest boy is using a Macbook (about 6 years old with wireless G) you might see where I'm going here....
    the problem is the older macbook keeps losing connection on the wireless, I have called and spoken to the 1st line support guys in India but it's a bit of luck if you can understand them let alone find someone who knows what they are doing. As I work in IT I completely understand and normally ask them to read my notes before advising me especially as I had so many issues last year when I was given a number to get through to the priority care team LOL , so far I have tried the following:
    moving the Hub 3 to several locations around the house
    reinstalling snow leopard 
    using a wireless dongle 
    I live in the middle of nowhere so there are no other houses around which have a hub3 sp none can be affecting me and I've checked this by using programs like inSIDDer.
    Finally I thought I'd take it to work to see if I could get the model number of the wireless card and order a new one and guess what it works fine!! So I thought I'd check at a friends and again it works fine for the whole time I'm there.
    Brought it home and it won't stay connected GRRRAAA!!!!!!! 
    I've heard that the hub3 doesn't like having a wireless N & and wireless G laptops on the connecting at the same time is this correct? Has anyone else heard of this?
    finnally I do have windows machines in the house and none of them  (2 laptops and a desktop which is wired) are having an issue but the Sony TV which is wired directly in to the hub will also drop connection randomly between 8 PM and 10 PM every day so I'm leaning towards the hub being a rubbish router instead of the problem lying with my Macbook

    There is some help with wireless connection on this page.

    There have been other reports of connection issues with Apple products, including Macbooks. A forum search should find the threads relating to this.

  • X100e regularly dropping wireless connection

    Had my new x100e (Windows 7 Home Premium, 2GB RAM, 22GB hard drive) about 3 weeks now- trouble is it drops the wireless connection consistently and regularly every three minutes- I've sat and timed it.  Then it will immediately start reconnecting.  Have used the laptop at home, at a coffeeshop, and at my university campus.  Same behavior at each location.  I bought this to replace my lenovo S10 netbook- which I absolutely lloved and never had a minute of trouble from with daily heavy use so this is disappointing.  Also currently using Word 2007 trial and it goes buggy on me fairly regularly- won't save- claims not enough memory.  I copy my text, shut down Word, reopen Word and paste my text back in, and then it will let me save.  Again, disappointing given my last experience with a lenovo product was so outstanding.  I'm thinking maybe the Word issue has something to do with Windows 7?  But my main concern is the wireless dropping-  Should I return the computer?  Thanks for your help.
    Solved!

    UPDATE-  I had already changed my settings to Maximum Performance a few days previous and dropping continued.  Since this post I went to Device Manager and Power Management tab on the wireless adapter- I unchecked the box for "Allow computer to turn off this device to save power."  Dropping issue appears to have cleared up- still have some seldom drops but nowhere near the regularity and frequency of before!  Thought I'd post this in case somebody else has same problem.
