Apple TV3 Wifi problems

Hey. Can anyone help me? I apologize if anyone thinks that this has been discussed several times before on this forum. But I can unfortunately not find answers to my questions.
Have from July 1 tested Netflix on my Apple TV 3 with some problems. The stream runs perfectly until I suddenly get the error message "A problem occurred while playing this item. Try again later". I have to press the menu button and load the content again.
I have tried the following to correct this error. Cut the power to the modem and my Apple Timecapsule which I use as my wifi network, and then power cycle again. This has been without success. Have obviously the last update and have double checked several times to see that I have the latest version of Apple TV3.
I've tried to go into the "iTunes Store" and then change from 1080i to 720p and then to standard definition without success. Something that really should not be necessary since I have both a modem and timecapsule that is not older than 1 year old and bought new. And the internet speed should be more than enough. Speed of my internet line is 30mb./15mb. My 8 month old Apple Timcaspule the Internet signals coming from standing 3-4 feet in a straight line towards my Apple TV 3.
I also tried to disable the power cord to my Apple TV3 wall and then wait 60 seconds and start up again without success. Worth noting is that I can not remember that this error has occurred on my Apple TV3 other program selection / apps than netflix.
When I see content on Netflix the media is not loaded in advance to the timeline as it always gets done on youtube. But that's only because the media content is much larger than any of the youtube media, or what? There were no changes on this when I change from 1080i to 720p or standard definition.
I have found several articles about Apple TV that I'm unsure about dealing with my version of Apple TV3. Please see these articles:
http://9to5mac.com/2013/04/15/apple-says-small-number-of-apple-tvs-have-wifi-iss ues-opens-replacement-program/
http://www.macrumors.com/2013/04/15/apple-initiates-replacement-program-for-3rd- generation-apple-tvs-with-wifi-connectivity-issues/
http://www.appletvhacks.net/2013/04/16/apple-replacement-program-apple-tv-3-wifi -connectivity-issues/
If the third and fourth position are right, I have not this error. But if the fourth and fifth position, I have this error. Can anyone confirm with 100% certainty what is right? Has anyone here on the forum contacted Apple to investigate this?
How can I find out if my problems caused by this bug? I can of course be wired between my Apple and Apple TV3 Timcapsule to see what happens. What about pressing reset to factory settings? Have any other suggestions? Is there software to determine where the fault lies?

Report to apple on WiFi problems!

Hello to all the fellows!!
I just wanted to ask from you to report to the apple developer team about the many WiFi troubles we see here at the last time in order that apple will take this thing to their attention and will fix this issue as soon as possible.
Everyone who encountered with WiFi issues after he upgraded its iPod to the new 4.1 iOS version is asked to report on to apple in the next link: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html
From the dropped-down menu under the area 'feedback type' choose 'bug report' and report on your problem.
The more you will report, the short time that apple will take it to their attention.
Hope you will do so we all benefit!!!
Best regards!!

Ever since upgrading to IOS 8, including IOS 8.01, 8.02 and 8.1 I had the wellknown Wifi issue. wifi speeds dropping from 120mbps to about 2mbps @ 5ghz in within a minute after connecting to the wifinetwork. often i couldn't even surf at all. but the wifi signal was always strong. With every update i was hoping for a solution from Apple but it never came. Tried everything that can be found on the internet. Resetting the network settings. Disabling "wifi networking" under Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services. Reinstalling my Ipad from scratch Used different routers and different setups. Automatic ip's and fixed ip's and different dns servers just to be sure. Nothing worked. The only workaround is switching to a 2.4Ghz network. So i was doing some tests and found THE solution, but i don't like it all. One of the biggest changes in IOS 8 is the ability to use airplay without a network. by using a wifi connection in combination with bluetooth. And here lies the problem. I disconnected al my Airplaydevices from my network. Denon AV-amplifier AVR2113, Pioneer wireless speaker XW SMA3 and an airport express. Et voila... My Ipad is back to normal. fast... no very fast internet connection and stable as ****. Just like iOS 7 was. Working with it for a couple of hours now without any trouble at all. But do i connect one Airplay device to the network the wifi is not stable anymore and extremely slow again on my ipad air. My Macbook running mac os x mavericks doesn't have these issues, neither does my iphone 5S. and they are also on the same 5ghz network. So I can create and recreate the issue and create a work around... Apple please come with a solution that makes me able to use airplay an ipad (on ios8) on a 5ghz network! like in iOS 7!!!!

Apple tv3 airplay problem

I have an iphone 4, macbook air, time capsule 500gb apple tv 3. When I try to play a video airplay with iphone, video is loaded very slowly, and goes excerpts. When I try to play the video on Apple TV 3 with my homework COLLECTIONS which is located on MacBook AIR, the same situation as with the iPhone. From the Apple Store video is loaded fine. What's the problem?

I finally found the like-symptom causing the issue of missing airplay services on ATV box.
Well, I have one airport express installed in my study room, which connects to the same LAN as ATV3 in living room. Today, I reset airport express to factory setting and reconfigured everything on AirportExpress, including its SSiD, wifi network key and device password. All of a sudden, my iPad, iPhone, iMac lost their airplay connection to ATV3. Port scanning found no airplay services on ATV3 box. It needed box restart to bring up airplay as my earlier walk around solution. I still performed reset -> restore for a "permanent fix".
That said we might have airplay icon disappeared again if there were more than one airplay device on the same LAN that would interfere to each other. Working on one airplay device from ground start would cause airplay service of another box malfunction.
My experience showed this twice. The first was happened when I put an airport express on the same LAN and I posted a thread here for help. The second was in this morning when i reset airport express to factory setting

Apple TV WiFi Problems

There is something wrong with my Apple TV. It rarely ever connects to my wifi network. My phones laptops and everything else connects perfectly fine, but not my apple tv. Sometimes it might say that it's connected when really it isn't cause nothing will work on it. Will not connect to the iTunes Store. If I select my network to try and make it connect it will say there was a problem connecting to my network, then will not pick up any other wifi signals either. If it is connected and says it is connected airplay will not work. I'm getting extremely irritated with this product is there anything you can do to replace a faulty product? Is anyone else having this problem?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

You have answered my question, thank you so much, I've just plugged in and found out that a direct connection will actually work via ethernet, but it works as Airplay mirroring and itune home sharing
No you don't need to use AirPlay from the computer to AppleTV.
Just use the AppleTV as you would with wifi. Everything is controlled from the AppleTV.

How long that apple will take care of wifi problem ?

I want to know , when Apple will take care of Wifi problem ? I did update to IOS 6. I can not turn on Wifi.

I am not having a problem with wifi on iOS 6. It is working fine for me. What is your exact problem? You are being very vague in describing what is wrong.

TS1559 WIFI solutions proposed by Apple are not working. Does oneone how to solve the WIFI problems?

Dear Apple.
I was really happy with my iphone4s, IOS 6.0, great product amazing quality and posibilities BUT.......
I updated from IOS 6.0 to 6.1.1. and the WIFI nightmare started.
I waited for a new update to fix the WIFI problems and I updated my iphone 4s from 6.1.1. to 6.1.2. in order to solve these problems related with WIFI connections.
But IOS 6.1.2. is even worst:
- WIFI is not working at all. So I cannot download apps greater than 50MB.
- Battery life is shorter than ever.
- 3G goes in and out every minute.
- When you operate the iphone4s you can realize that is hotter than before.
These problems are unnaceptable and inconsistent with a high quality standard product.
You can read a lot of blogs, I am not the only one.
Please give us a solution as soon as possible.
Best Regards

Nah... there simply is not iOS 6 Wi-Fi problem with the 4S. I have not experienced any issues and neither has anyone else I know with iPhones.
User's like yourself really should drop the attitude and try some basic troubleshooting.

Are you using a home network?
Try the following :
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

IPad mini with retina still having wifi problems with iOS 8.0.2 - slow or none. Resetting temporarily fixes problem it very annoying. Please fix Apple! Not up to scratch.

iPad mini with retina still having wifi problems with iOS 8.0.2 - slow or none. Resetting temporarily fixes problem it very annoying. Please fix Apple! Not up to scratch.

I Have followed these steps, and tried others, such as resetting all my network settings. At best these only temporarily fix the problem - wifi still becomes slow or stops. I have other Apple devices connecting fine to my airport express. why is my iPad mini not working? Is it related to the fact it is 3G and I don't have a sim card installed? It is the current top of the range model with iOS 8.0.2. I paid over the odds for the best, and it is almost completely redundant. Apple - I'm losing faith. You need to keep the public better informed and fix this problem fast, otherwise I will leave you for good.

Problems mirroring mac pro on TV with apple TV3

I just got an Apple TV3. It works with the typical Apple TV stuff, except Mirroring. I'm running Mavericks on a Mac Pro (2012) and there is 1 minute or so delay between what I seen on my Mac on what the TV displays. I follow the exact steps people show on Youtube with the same bad results. Any suggestions before I exchange this unit? Thanks

I just solved the problem! There were two issues: (1) The power cord to the DSL modem was broken ... it was turning the modem ON/OFF randomly-- I replaced it, but the Apple TV still didn't work well. (2) The router (Linksys E2500) I replaced the OEM firmware for the appropriate Tomato firmware version, and after completing its setup ... Voila! the Apple TV worked as expected ... it's a beauty!

When apple will solve the wifi problem ?

when apple will solve the wifi problem ?

They keep trying, but haven't yet in all the time OS X has existed. Every version of OS X has had some WiFi issue with some group of users. The normal pattern is they release a fix for one group, and another group develops a new WiFi problem.

Apple should respond to iphone overheat wifi problem!

Now my iphone is having a problem to find any wifi,
searching all around the forum i found out that that is cause by the iphone overheat problem,
after try i noticed it is true that when in a cool environment( they even put iphone in the fridge) my iphone can sometimes find the wifi and can be connected, but it won't last long. After a while the temperature increase, the wifi problem come back again.
Not only me but many people experiencing the same wifi problem like me~ Apple should show some respond to this serious problem~!

I found that I seem to lose my AT&T connection when the iPhone overheats somewhat. Yesterday I couldn't even find any service, but turned off and everything worked well today. I think if I periodically turn the phone off and start over again, the overheating probably diminishes.
