Battery calculating associated with slow connect to wifi?

I recently got a new battery. To my surprise and delight, it was free even though it had close to 600 cycles on it. Anyways, the new battery works great. However, since using this new battery, the computer takes like 20 seconds to find my wifi network. I notice that whenever I wake my MBP from sleep, the battery says calculating. As soon as the battery is done calculating, the airport finds available networks.
It seems like there would be a correlation between the two but I'm not sure.
any help would be greatly appreciated

My preferred wifi networks were out of order...i put them in order of which ones i use the most often and it connects right away now

    How do I change the phone number associated with my ipad mini wifi?

    Umm, incorrect. My new ipad retina wifi, and my wifes mini wifi both have a phyone number associated with them, in facetime and imessage. It syncs messages with teh iphone of that number, and facetime calls to that number go into BOTH devices... Yes, both devices ring when that number is sent a facetime request.
    Again, anyone know how to change the number phone number associated with a ipad wifi only, for facetime and imessage apps?
    Uhmm, no, the number does not belong to the iPad. It belongs to the iPhone the Apple Id used on the iPad is associated with.
    If you need to change that number, then you need a different Apple ID that is associated with a different iPhone number. Note, the number must belong to an iPhone with an Apple ID, otherwise it won't work.
    The iPad itself has no number associated to it. It is linked to an Apple ID which in turn is linked to an iPhone that has a number.

    At the very least, I recommend you restart your router, (your internet box).
    More detail on your problem is needed - are you in a submarine? On the moon? On a tropical island?
    You can help yourself by providing as much info as you can about your present situation - what kind of router do you have? Have you moved it? DId you update it?  Did you do anything to change your setup, and if you did, what?

  • Why is my iphone 4s slow connecting through wifi

    hi, i've just got my new iphone 4s, all set up ok but when i want to go on the internet through wifi, it is painfully slow.
    connecting through 3g is fine, but wifi is a no go. the phone does recognise my network, just doesn't connect to the internet. any help would be great.
    many thanx

    You're welcome.
    You tried every thing listed/provided including resetting your router and checking/changing the channels along with everything included with this link?

  • Files opened are no longer associated with a connection

    Sorry if this has been posted before, but I couldn't find any mention of it.
    Steps to reproduce the problem:
    - open SQLDev
    - open a connection
    - open a file (using the "Files" tab in the left pane)
    Result: the file is not associated with the open connection and you have to manually select it from the drop-down on the top right corner.
    Previous versions were working as expected and current behaviour is extremely annoying.
    Hope you will fix it ASAP.
    Regards.

    Well basicaly I think that any default sticking of a file to a connection is wrong.I disagree. To me default should be the connection(s) currently open.
    If you really want to have such feature then it has to be configurable and disabled by default.That sounds more reasonable.
    I think that first time you open a file you always have to chose a connection.I strongly disagree.
    Consider you would have 10 connections opened and opening a file for the first time. To which connection would you attach the file?ideally SQLDev should ask me to which of the currently open connections I want to pin the file. If that's too much work, I can live with not pinning to any (IOW, as it is now). BUT if only ONE connection is open I want SQLDev to pin any file to that connection, without asking anything (IOW, as it worked before).
    To remember to which connection was a file attached, you need to remember the full path to the file and the connection. If you have hunderts or even thousands of files then such log would be pretty big. What if I remove some files from my project? There is no way how you can detect this, so the log will contain dead mappings.I don't want SQLDev to remember anything: I work with CVS/SVN and the same file can be compiled on different connections (DEV, TEST, PROD, etc.). Not sure what are you talking about here...
    Basicaly I don't understand why need this functionality? You need to attach a file to a connection only when you need to compile it. When I am programing something I usually have only few souces open (e.g. three packages). I doubt anybody opens and changes large number of packages. Are you doing some changes to entire system every day?I don't understand how the number of files should make any difference. You open three packages, fine: don't you need to compile the changes you make? I just don't want to be forced to choose the connection if that can be automated (and, BTW, how many connections do you have? I have hundreds: do you think it's fun scrolling through a list that long?).

  • Yet another BtBroadband user with slow connection....

    Hi all.
     I've been having this problem for over a month now. Just before xmas our internet connection went down.
    I phoned Bt, went through all the usual tests to be told there was nothing wrong with them and it was my equipment. Ok, no problem, I went out and bought a new router, got it home, plugged it in, still no internet.
     Phoned Bt again, spoke to different person at callcenter, went through all the usual tests to be told that, yes, there was a problem with the line and to give it a few days for them to sort out. I gave it a few days and, amazing, the internet came back on. Problem was it was very slow. Ok, I thought, new modem, fixed connection, maybe I need to give it a few days to speed up. It's been a month now and it's gotten slower. So slow infact that when I ran the Bt Speedtester it said that my download speed was 59kps. This was the same speed I was getting back in '97 with my old dial-up modem (ah the memories...).
    Anyway, called Bt again, explained all the above and was directed to thier online guide for improving the connection speeds, not very helpfull. Prior to the line problems in december, I was getting speeds up 21000kps. The line was rated for speeds between 4000-21000kps. My property is less than a 1km from the exchange, my router is connected to the main socket and I didn't have any problems prior to the line problems last year.
    I have been searching through the previous posts on this forum and can see many other people with similar issues. One post stated that, because of thier line problems Bt had downgraded thier bandwith while the problem was dealt with, but had forgotten to increase it back to normal speed once it had been sorted.
     This could be the issue with my connection and if any of the moderators are out there, could this be looked into, it would be deeply appreciated.
    My Btspeedtester results and modem stats are as follows:
     Download speedachieved during the test was - 59 Kbps
     For your connection, the acceptable range of speedsis 100-250 Kbps.
     Additional Information:
     Your DSL Connection Rate :286 Kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 888 Kbps(UP-STREAM)
     IP Profile for your line is - 135 Kbps
    The throughput of Best Efforts (BE) classes achieved during the test is - 0.64:11.33:89.14 (SBE:NBEBE)
    These figures represent the ratio while sententiously passing Sub BE, Normal BE and Priority BE marked traffic.
    Upload speed achieved during the test was - 728 Kbps
     Additional Information:
     Upstream Rate IP profile on your line is - 888 Kbps
    Router:
    Type     Interleave Path             
       Status     SHOWTIME             
    Downstream     Upstream
          Data rate(Kbps)     
    286Kb     888Kb
       Noise Margin

       Output power(dBm)     
    0     257
       Attenuation(dB)     
    21     7
    I hope someone can help. Thanks in advance.

    "If line instability is shown to stabilise normally the exchange equipment will remove the banding however on some occasions it does not release,and bt can release it manually but they like to see hub stats that show that during the line has been stable for a minimum of 5days but 10 is prefered" I'm not sure whose brainwashed you with this stuff, however. FaCT: BT retail complain to BTw about stuck banded profiles, and yes they can reset the INP, but if the line characteristics don't improve, it goes back to where it was. They also operate to strict protocol, and don't put lightweight preference on whether its seen a fixed rate at 5 days or 10. Truth is if the line is seeing high noise margin and not improving, it has a problem, and often can't be fixed, or take advantage of 21CN. Or sometimes it can be fixed, by the customer, if they choose to, or are capable of. It's not in BT's remit to fix home induced noise, but it is for the line, if its possible. They (BTw) can change any workiing parameter they see fit on DLM, but the main reason for it, is to run in AUTO. In other words, they don't do it for all and sundry, or at the drop of a hat, without good reason. Hence, they don't set "preference" for seeing stable connections. They tend to let the physics do its job.

  • Slow Connecting to Wifi

    I recently restarted my iPod Touch and the first thing I noticed was that it takes a LONG time to connect to wifi and when it displays the signal icon, i have to wait several minutes before I can actually connect to the internet. In addition, it appears that I always have to open an apple app (like iTunes) before something else like facebook will connect. Before my restart the connecting to wifi took seconds and as soon as the wifi logo appeared (in seconds), I could connect to the internet with any app. My question: is this normal? If not, what happened?

    It doesn't seem normal to me and I would approach the problem this way:
    Restart your iPod: Hold the Sleep/Wake button until you get the red slider. Turn off your iPod. Hold the Sleep/Wake button to restart it (you'll see the Apple).
    Reset your iPod: Turn your iPod off. Hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button simultaneously (+/- 10 seconds until you see the Apple icon).
    And finally, Restore your iPod: connect to iTunes and select "Restore this iPod".
    Hopefully a simple restart or reset will solve the problem.

  • Finding programs associated with network connections. [solved]

    Is there a way to find out what programs are accessing the internet at any given time?  i know firestarter does this, but i would rather not do it through that if possible.
    Last edited by toru (2011-03-24 08:13:01)

    you can use netstat with the -p option to show all running connections and programs associated with them. for examle netstat -tp as root will show all outgoing TCP connections with the programs that opened them. Have a look at the netstat manpage for other options like udp-connections, running servers etc..

  • Rent Movies, Even With Slow Connection?

    With the new Apple TV, is it possible to rent Movies even if you have a really slow (e.g 0.5Mbps) internet connection?
    If you start a rental in the morning, and leave it downloading all day, will the Apple TV automatically use its 8GB of cache to store the file so that it will play continuously from start to finish, without needing to stream?

    Funnily enough I've not rented anything on it yet, but I firmly believe it will load the whole movie into the solid state buffer. If it did not do this people would be very frustrated if they decided to go back a couple of chapters after the phone rang for instance and they forgot to pause.
    Until I try a rental I can't say for certain, but it would seem quite illogical (which is no guarantee) not to store the whole rental on the unit to allow for predownloading on slower connections but also for replay and chapter selection/skips/ff/rw purposes during the rental playback period.
    The big unanswered question for me (maybe someone else has figured out by now) is how the 8GB of solid state memory is dished out and what purges existing content in the solid state memory.
    For example - a single HD rental should fit in that 8GB, possibly two. However say the user has 2GB of photos streaming, do they have priority for memory usage ovr rentals or vice versa? The iPad has a 16GB limit for photos (or did in older OS), even on a 32GB/64GB machine, so maybe only 1-2MB is reserved for photo caching on ATV2, maybe the whole 8Gb is available, who knows?
    Certainly local media from iTunes seems to cache to the unit, and quicker than ATV1, so the danger if the memory management is illogical is that any activity you do while caching an HD rental could potentially flush the cached rental in order to play the local media, but this would be daft and I hope they would reserve enough solid state memory for the rental and force the local media to cache in a smaller segment even if it meant repeatd cacheing to watch the whole thing (done transparently to the user).
    What if you rent two HD movies?
    Does the first download to the cache then the 2nd?
    Do they download concurrently?
    If they're too big for 2 in the cache does 1 of them flush the other rental out to maker room?
    IMO this is all a bit vague and unpredictable.

    Other laptops (Old Acer, new HP) connect/run at 18,000+ kbps, while my destop harwired to modem (Old Dell) runs 30,000+ kbps. 
    Lenovo runs 7000-8000 kbps.
    ALSO the T500 will intermitantly causecut off the Lynkys roeuter requireing complete shut dowjn and re-boot...
    Is there a firm ware update for my Lynksys I can access?
    Tried online download for firmware for WRT54GX4 but gave me a file with and .ibx extension that I cannot open!

    Please don't try to open the file...Follow these steps to upgrade the Firmware on the router : Make sure that the computer that has the firmware file is hardwired to your router...

    Leave username blank & in password use admin in lower case...
    Click on the 'Administration' tab- Then click on the 'Firmware Upgrade' sub tab- Here click on 'Browse' and browse the .bin firmware file and click on "Upgrade"...
    Wait for few seconds until it shows that "Upgrade is successful"  After the firmware upgrade, click on "Reboot" and you will be returned back to the same page OR it will say "Page cannot be displayed".
    Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...
    Then, unplug the power keep holding down the reset button for another 30 Seconds...

  • Terrible bandwidth with phone connected to WiFi network.

    When I connect my Galaxy Note 4 to my wireless network, my WiFi bandwidth is terrible.  Prior to connecting the phone I am seeing 99ms pings and 10MB per second download speeds.  After connecting the phone, the ping goes up to 650ms or more and the bandwidth drops to 1 or 2 MB per second.  I have a DSL connection and I use Integra.net/Speedtest to test my bandwidth.  Any ideas?

    Most home services are much slower than cellular data.
    Many factors affect DSL or cable internet. Number of people using the service or the number of devices on in your home network.
    Just bad settings on the modem/router just like I said too many factors. Have your DSL provider send a tech to your home to get a signal reading.
    Go into a free WiFi place like Starbucks or McDonalds or a Quick Lube center and see if the connection is better.
    Good Luck

    Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
    Partition and Format the hard drive:
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer.

  • Incredibly slow connection over WIFI only on Mac

    Hi,
    I have the following problem that cannot fix and I need your help.
    I have a 10Mbit fiber optic ISP connection and a Belkin wifi accesso point.
    In the same room I have an iPhone, an iPad and a PC succesfully connected and up/downloading at full speed (up to 900K).
    The problem is on the Mac that can't go faster than 10K !!!
    Sometimes it also drops and cannot see the wifi for a while. I tested also with all other devices turned off and the access point freshly restarted.
    Any idea?
    thanks a lot

    update/more info
    when connected via ethernet cable the speed is very fast, so I guess no disk fragmentation issues
    also, sometime the connection to the access point breaks and I can't find it on the airport search (I don't see any other access point). All this while the orhert devices do see many wifi in the area and easily connect to mine at top speed.
    definitely the issue is on the Mac.
    forgot to say, my belkin is set with a WPA2 password.

  • Anyone know if Mountain Lion resolves the rapid battery drain associated with Lion?

    When I installed Lion on my MacBook Pro, I, like many other forum users, noticed a dramatic drop in battery life. No matter what troubleshooting measures I took at the behest of Apple Geniuses, the battery life dropped from a high of about 8 hours to a paltry 3.
    So, anyone heard if the newest version resolves this problem for MBP users?

    I hope I am understanding your post.
    All I'm saying (in response to Smoke Monster's argument of "it uses more RAM and therefore more battery")  is that it does't make a difference how much RAM an OS uses, as OS X doesn't distinguish between blocks with content and blocks without, they are all being powered/fired at the same time.
    So I was told.  So if you had 8GB before and 8GB now, it's not the RAM that uses the additional power.
    If you had 4GB and upgraded to 8 because of ML using more memory, THEN your battery may suffer a bit.
    I'm not excluding a 1000 other reasons for shorter battery life, just the RAM.
    More likely would be system processes using the GPU (or CPU for that matter) more than before on some machines.

  • Upgarde to Lion with slow connection

    Hi
    I bought a mac book pro about 1.5 month ago
    and I want to upgrade to Lion now
    But I have a slow internet connection
    Is there another way to upgrade?
    and I saw some links that said macs early has been sold can upgrade to Lion free?
    Is it true?

    no I'm using 10.6.8
    my basic problem is my slow internet connection
    and I don't like to wait more
    Is there another way to download it from another place and transfer data to my mac?(some friends from another cities can download it and post it's DVD to me)
    another question i had is that for me that have bought my mac less than two months ago there is a free upgrade or is not?
    thanks for all friends that helped and helping
