Cannot netflix to connect to wireless, cuts in and out

Have aplpe extreme as primary wireless and airport express as a booster. Trying to get Netflix at night is terrible, cuts in and out and is quite annoying. Is this the wireless problem as it is buffering on the TV. Or the TV or both or none?

Does your internet give you at least 4Mbit/s during peak internet usage.. if not then Netflix will not work well.
Test using a computer connected to the express wireless and see what you get in normal internet tests.
eg.. http://www.speedtest.net/
If you fail, plug the computer into the main router by ethernet and test the speed again. If you don't manage easily 4Mbit.. you cannot do Netflix.
If you get >4Mbit then your wireless setup is poor. You should run ethernet to the TV.
Remember everyone who is sharing the bandwidth in the house.. is cutting your chances of trouble free netflix.
Also apple routers have no Quality of Service so there is nothing you can do about it. If you have multiple people in the house work out an arrangement or use a proper router that has bandwidth settings for each user.

Xfinity X1 - TV Sound Cuts In And Out When Connected to Surround Sound Receiver

I'm a fairly new Comcast Xfinint X1 TV and Internet subscriber. I am experiencing issues with TV sound cutting in and out. The sound cuts out for 2-3 seconds, all the time. The Onkyo surround sound receiver has been used without issue on a different cable TV platform so I know there is nothing wrong with the receiver. System set-up. Voice/data modem - Arris Interactive, LLC - tg862gCable Box - Make/Model - PA px001ancSurround Sound Receiver - Onkyo TX-NR609 HDMI cable run from cable box to Onkyo receiver. HDMI cable run from Onkyo receiver to TV. I have reset all equipment multiple times with no resolution. Any help would be greatly appreciated as it is very difficult when trying to watch TV.

I highly doubt your modem has anything to do with this because it doesn't have MoCA.However it sounds like you an original green power light Pace DVRs and they are well known to have audio dropout issues. I would replace that DVR with a different version.
Is this problem happening on a specific channel? CBS seems to be having issues lately. I am watching the CMA awards right now and I have heard the volume change a couple times but this is the only channel it is happening on which would suggest it is not Comcast's fault.

Why does my sound keep cutting in and out on my tv when connected to Mac?

I hooked up my Mac to my tv using a mini display port and changed to sound output so that I could get sound from my tv. The sound is coming from my tv, but it is cutting in and out. Is there a way to fix this? Is it the cables I'm using?

Yeah Kase12 I was just wondering if you ever figured out what was making this happen...I have tried replacing all the cables and it still does it...Every couple minutes the sound will cut out for a few seconds then come back on and it might be 30 miniutes before it does it again or it might do every 4 minutes theres no pattern to it
.If you figured it out could you please shoot me an email at [email protected] thanks

Airtunes cutting in and out when using the internet.

Hi all,
I know this topic has been covered before and there is a support page for this problem on the apple website but I haven't been able to fix the problem using either hence the post so sorry for repetition.
As the title says my airtunes keeps cutting in and out, but it only seems to happen when I am actively using the internet. What I mean to say is that if the internet is connected and sitting there dormant it works fine, but as soon as a start to surf or download it cuts out, the higher the download/upload rate the longer the cut outs are until it stops all together.
My network contains the following,
2 Computers (1 iMac and 1 MacBook Pro)
1 Airport Express
The iMac is the host of the network, it also is the provider of the internet via a USB mobile broadband stick shared out via Airport (which cannot be connected directly into the Airport Express). Airport Express is used purely for Airtunes.
I could not change the channel setting to test for interference in Airport Utility as the iMac was the host. I tried changing the whole network channel on the iMac but the cut outs still occurred.
I use the MacBook Pro to send the audio from iTunes to Airport Express, distance would only be about 4 meters with no physical barriers such as stereo/cables/walls etc.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Jarrod.

Any idea's please?

4G and Data cutting in and out

I have had a Thunderbolt for about 3 mo now and about 4 days ago my phone stopped picking up 4G. I have used the phone info test and have it set correctly to pick up 4G. The data will also cut in and out if I am streaming video or playing games. I am more concerned about the 4G. It was running continuously from the day I bought the phone until 4 days ago. I have rebooted several times but will not go into 4G. Any help would be appreciated.

Please reply and let me know if you are still having problems getting connected to 4G.
When you rebooted, did you remove the battery & even the SIM card? Once you removed & reinserted, what happened?
Is there anyone else with or around you that may also have a 4G device from Verizon? If so, are they also having problems picking up 4G?
Have you also tried these steps from the phone?
(Two work arounds provided to us from HTC are listed below)
1. From the home screen, select Applications.
2. Select Settings.
3. Select Wireless & network.
4. Select Mobile networks.
5. Select Use packet data.
Enabled when a orange check mark is present.
The next is..,
1. From the home screen, select and hold the status bar (located at the top of the display).
2. Drag the window shade to the bottom of the display.
3. Select Mobile data.
Enabled when a orange indicator is present
Let me know what happens. I want to ensure you are able to continue to Rule The Air with your 4G device.

AirPlay Audio Cuts in and Out

I have had major issues in the past six months with the audio from my AirPlay where there used to be none. For a long while I used an elaborate setup from my 2nd gen AppleTV, to a optical audio out to a quarter inch converter to an AudioEngine wireless dongle to my receiver with flawless results between 2013 and late 2014. When problems started occuring I naturally figured it was the wi-fi network, I did some serious reconfiguring to get as strong and clean of a wi-fi signal as possible, still had the issues. I finally decided to simplify the whole setup to an AirPlay compatible Denon AVR-x1000 stereo that hardwires to my wireless router. All was good for a week, now its worse than ever, even resetting the internet and the router will not seem to get the AirPlay from cutting in and out. I have an iPad, an iPhone 5 and a Macbook Pro, and an AppleTV all connecting to the receiver. All have the same cut in and out problem that existed before the receiver and after. It seems every update makes things less stable not more. Is there someone who can help walk me through a fix or just tell me AirPlay no longer works so I can stop trying?
Please help!!!
Here is my setup -
Macbook Pro 15-inch, Mid 2012 - 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7, 8GB RAM Running OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 connected by Wi-Fi
Denon AVR-X1000 AirPlay enable receiver connected directly to router via ethernet
Netgear Dualband Wireless-N Router WNDR3700 - 2.4GHZ Channel has a 92% Signal and the 5Ghz has 85%
Internet Connection is fast and consistent 72MBps Down 10 Up
2nd Gen AppleTV connected via Wi-Fi
iPhone 5 iOS 8.3
2nd Gen iPad running iOS 8.2
I have shut off bluetooth on anything that has it to avoid interference. The video of the appleTV works just fine and the Airplay Icon is consistently available, this is an AUDIO issue.
***There is another 2nd Gen Apple TV in a separate room (weaker signals all around) connected to the same network that works flawlessly streaming audio and video from any device.***

Logic Pro X Audio cutting in and out

When I am trying to record in Logic Pro X the audio seems to cut in and out at random points.
I have a MP3 track that I am recording to and it just randomly cuts out. Even when just playing that track by itself the same thing happens though never at the same spots. If I open the MP3 in Itunes or Quicktime there is no problem with the track.
As this seriously messes with the time of the piece and makes the recording long and painful I need help.
Is there some type of connection I am missing? I am using an old Presonus Firebox as an Interface, it unfortunately has adaptors to take it from firewire to thunderbolt. Recording into a 27" Imac that is very souped up and shouldn't have any problems until I hit a hundred tracks or so and I am only trying two.

It's most likely the Fusion drive, one of the symptoms is audio cutting out.
There are several related threads in this forum regarding audio problems with the Fusion drive.
This thread alone would take a couple of days to read.

A fix is supposed to be coming in the next operating system update.

If you have your iPad connected to the charger it could be the new "Hey Siri" feature that allows you to use Siri without pressing the home button. Do you have a radio on or are people talking ? Go to settings> general> Siri> Allow"Hey Siri"> off.

Just used my FaceTime for the first time, and my audio kept cutting in and out.? Why is it doing that? Or what's causing it? HELP!

I tried facetiming for the first time and my audio kept cutting in and out.. WHY!? It was so annoying. Does anyone know what might be the problem? Connection? Thanks!

Do you have a Corp. Exchange account on your phone? I ask, because the requirement to encrypt an iPhone backup can be enforced by a profile installed on your phone when setting up the Exchange account.

Airfoil cuts in and out due to sleep (I think)

I use Airfoil to connect to an Airport Express and play music. It constantly cuts in and out whenever another application is in use, when the computer sleeps or the display turns off.
Can I (and if so, where) adjust these settings to allow it to continue to play until I disconnect it? (MacBook Pro w/OS Mavericks)
Thanks in advance -
K

Found this on Rogue Amoeba's page:
"In addition to the above, the new “App Nap” function in Mavericks can cause issues with audio transmission when Airfoil is in the background. We’re working on this, but for the moment, we recommend disabling App Nap on Airfoil. This should only be needed temporarily."

Bluetooth speakers cutting in and out while typing

Anyone have any issues with there bluetooth connection to speakers for yoga 11s on windows 8.1?
The sound from the bluetooth speaker cuts in and out when my palms are resting on the keyboard while typing.. The connection seems fine in tablet mode or if I'm not touching it.
i've tried updating the drivers and still no improvement.

It also Does NOT cut out like this on skype.

Speaker volume seems unreliable - cutting in and out

sometimes callers have a hard time to hear me, my volume is cutting in and out. It is not a question of reception. It is almost as if the speakers or microphone goes into some kind of sleep mode and takes a while to wake up after I start speaking.
Any idea why that could be?

There are curves, but not in the middle of the portion of the track I was listening to. If I were to listen to the same portion on my old iBook, no problem but the iMac is the only one presenting the issue. However, when I listen to the track playback over headphones connected to the iMac, the track's volume is fine.

Speakers cut in and out

I have a 03 pontiac sunfire. Ever since I bought this vehicle a year ago all of the speakers will cut in and out. The rear speakers will only work every now and then. None of the speakers sound like they are blown. Also the head unit will turn off if the parking brake is applied. Any ideas?

sounds like bad speakers, factory amplifier, or bad installation. get your car into your local geek squad to have it fixed and working the way it should be working. $20 per 1/4 hour or $80 per hour is the normal troubleshooting for a vehicle. thanks for posting and good luck!
I am a CAR Geek Squad installer tech lead, but my views that i post are my own and not that of best buy. if you like my posts give me some kudos, if you need further help contact your local Geek Squad installation bay!

Optical digital audio cuts in and out

I am connecting my new Apple TV 2010 to our Bose Lifestyle 28 (Apple TV HDMI to VS-2 and Apple TV Optical Digital to the Bose Lifestyle). After power cycling the Apple TV the audio works but cuts in and out every few seconds.
All thoughts appreciated.
Thanks in advance, Jay

Even after switching DD to "On" switching cables and ensuring that I was playing back audio content with DD encoded audio, I still receive no DD audio and continue to get audio drop outs.

My blutooth headset cuts in and out based on the position of the gen 4 ipod touch, any ideas as to why this is and how to fix it?

When using a blutooth headset with my ipod touch the signal seems to cut in and out. The controls seem to work fine but the audio cuts out when the unit is moved or placed in my pocket.

Could be interference
AirPort and Bluetooth: Potential sources of wireless interference
Try:
- Reseting the BT headset
- 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.
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. You will have to rejoin all wifi networs and re-pair all BT devices
