Clamshell mode slow internet... am adding a video proof about it...

For the past few months I have been constatnly calling up my ISP to check if there is something wrong with their service. My internet speed is slow. Some times as slow as 5% the promised speed. I'm on a 10 mbps plan which should give me a cool 1.2 mBps (notice the capital B). whenever i feel there needs to be a test, i simple make a download off itunes podcast. Before i started using it in the clamshell mode it used to give me a full 1.2mBps!! Then, it began to fluctuate to abour 200 to 400 kBps. on non apple sites, even as low as 100kBps!!
i even changed my router and was about the buy a third one! but then, the ISP engineers made me plug in the mac direcrly to the ethernet port, and everything ran fine! so it was ruled out that there was anything wrong with the service. also, since two of my routers from differend manufactureres showed the same performance, the problem with the router was also ruled out. then i booted my old toshiba machine running vista and it ran fine too.
While searching for a comparision for the macbook pro in clamshell and an iMac, i came across this thread...
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2175385?start=0&tstart=0
so i decided to run a test with podcasts again and check the speed. this time i leveraged on qt x's screen recording ability and decided to post here. it turned out to be true! the clamshell mode is causing problems with the internet speed. check this video out yourself...

  • Slow Internet after Lion Install

    Lion installation was successful on a Mac Mini.  The only problem I have is a slower internet connection.
    I am getting about 2 to 3 Mbps for download when it should be about 10 -12 Mbps.  On another Mac stil running on Snow Leopard I'm getting an excellent download speed.  I cannot see how this could relate to the Lion install, but after dealing with the modem, router and checking that other Macs have good internet access, I turned to this forum.
    I am using a Cisco Valet plus router.  Lion was installed on a Mac Mini. 802.11g  The RSSI value is -70. Transmit rate is between 12 and 18.
    Any ideas?

    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network ▹ Advanced... ▹ DNS
    Under DNS Servers you should have one or more numerical addresses, such as “192.168.1.1” or “10.0.0.1”. What are those addresses?

  • Apple TV and slow internet speeds?

    I live in Ireland and unlike the US, we have quite slow internet with a national max of about 7mb (which is what I have)
    How would the streaming work with this kind of network?

    Iremonger wrote:
    Are those speeds, related to the stated internet speeds, or the download speeds? The usual download speed is around 600kbs for me, hit 1.3mps once but haven't got close since then.
    I have a fixed 1Mbps connection in UK, and I strongly suspect that for rentals, the new device will do what the old one did - in other words it will not let you play until enough has downloaded to theoretically allow you to watch the movie completely as the tail end of the film downloads in the background.
    I hope that the new device will save the rental stream to the device's internal solid state memory (8GB) to allow you to pause/rewind/restart/rewatch etc during the playback period WITHOUT having to redownload.
    If on the other hand it stores nothing, buffers a small amount, and relies on a fairly nippy internet connection to stream live, you, I and many others without high speed connections will be stuffed for rentals.
    Anything in your iTunes library however that's compatible will be limited for playback by your home network speeds not the internet.

  • Windows 7 Ultimate (64-Bit) fresh install, only WLAN and video driver installed but EXTREMELY slow internet connection...

    I recently checked my internet connection on my Asus G53SW and found that it was extremely slow on both the LAN and WLAN connections. I checked with a different laptop (old HP Pavilion) and I get a steady 74mbps+ connection using the same LAN cable and
    also with the WLAN connection. My ISP has checked their side and everything is fine.
    To try and resolve the issue I tried uninstalling, disabling and tweaking various software and even tried safe mode with networking, all to no avail. I then decided to do a complete fresh install this afternoon. I have installed Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit)
    successfully onto my SSD and everything went smoothly. I have now only installed Nvidia video drivers and the (only) WLAN driver from the Asus support site.
    My WLAN connection remains incredibly slow (amost half what it is on the HP and my MacBook Pro). Clearly this is an issue with either the Asus laptop or Windows but I don't know how to proceed in order to eliminate which it could be other than to try a different
    o/s to W7-Ult.
    Can anyone help who knows more about this than me? Perhaps someone who has had a similar or the same problem because this is giving me a severe headache!
    Thanks in advance to all and for any advice.

    Thank you for responding. As I stated in my original post the reason I went through this process was because of an extremely slow internet connection from both the WLAN and LAN connections on my G53SW. At that time I had all of the correct drivers on the
    machine. Whilst I would agree that with the machine only having a video and WLAN driver it may well not be working 'optimally', the rationale for doing this was to get the machine working with the minimum of processes to show that it was not anti-virsu software,
    Steam or the like causing interference.
    I have changed out both of the HDDs this evening (a primary SSD and a secondary 1Tb HDD) for a clean hybrid 1Tb Seagate drive. Once I have installed all of the Asus drivers (and nothing else) I will try the speed test again and report back.
    I can now report that with a fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 and ONLY Asus drivers as supplied the issue remains. On a connection where I should see around 75mbps I am actually getting around 18mbps, sometimes considerably slower. This only affects
    my Asus machine.

  • Internet while in clamshell mode, macbook pro

    Whenever I have my MacBook Pro in clamshell mode while using it with an external display, it seems that the speed of my internet lowers drastically, but when I open the laptop (while keeping it connected to the external display so that the attached screen remains off), the internet comes back full force... Is there any way to fix this, or is it not something that I can fix? Or maybe is it just a coincidence and it just happens that every time I try this, the internet is just generally slow? I use the clamshell mode a lot now, so it would be nice if the internet was as fast as if the laptop were open..

    This is probably because on the MacBook Pro, the WiFi antenna is built into the hinge, so when you close the lid, the antenna's reception is severely impaired. This is a Homer Simpson "doh" moment for the Apple designers.
    Here's some discussion of the problem:

    Personally when running my MBP in clamshell mode I connect to my router with a USB cable, which totally eliminates the problem.

  • Wi-Fi Slow for Mid-2010 MacBook Pro in Clamshell Mode

    'd like to add my experience the posts which I have see regarding slow speeds in clamshell. I have a mid-2010 Macbook Pro 13 and when I first attempted to use it with an external monitor, keyboard and mouse - I too experienced significant slowing of the wi-fi speed. About 3 months ago, we swapped our existing router (non-Apple) for an Airport Extreme. That seems to have somehow cured the problem. While this does not address the issue with a 2008 product, I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has similar experience and/or if this potentially corrects the problem for other current model (or earlier model) Unibody owners. I hope that this isn't something that might evaporate with a software update someday in the future.

    Hello thedoctor8706
    Reset your NVRAM and test to see if that resolves your issues. Typically that will resolve video, volume, startup disk selection, and kernel panic issues.

  • MBP Clamshell Mode - DVI to TV Adapter - Front Row Works - But No Video?

    Hi all,
    Have picked up an Apple DVI to TV adapter for my MB Pro. Have successfully got it to work in clamshell mode displaying Front Row on the TV without the external Mouse or keyboard.
    However, it will not play videos or movies on the TV.
    If I keep the lid open, it will play the video/movie on both displays as hoped. However, when I close the lid, all other Front Row stuff works - but no video picture! Is this some sort of overlay issue? How can I fix this? I do NOt want to burn my LCD when using it this way - would be a waste.
    Please pass on any thoughts!
    Thanks,
    Stu

    I also have this exact same problem. A little annoying since I have just spent $A35 on the mini dvi to dvi adapter and another $A50 on a good quality DVI cable. My LCD tv is set to millions of colors so that is not the issue.
    I have a 2.0Ghz Core2Duo Macbook. A quick google search If anyone knows how to fix it I'd be very grateful.

  • Does Clamshell mode run slower for you?

    I've seen people asking questions regarding mighty mice in clamshell mode and then noticing a difference in mouse performance when in open display mode, but thats not my issue.  I have a 2011 13" 2.3ghz i5 MBP and using it in clamshell mode.  i have a small app running in the background called ifreemem that shows how much ram is being used and right now with only itunes and safari (to write this) open, I'm showing 75% of ram usage of my stock 4gb.  Granted, I'll soon be updating to 8gb, but I'm just wondering if this is normal.  I'm using a mini dvi adapter to connect to my 19" LG LCD TV/Monitor.  Any comments are appreciated.

    To help with heating, place the MBP in the bookarc upside down, so that the fan vents (at the display's hinge) are facing up. This will help to avoid internal heat buildup towards the battery and HDD. Sure, the exterior apple logo will also be upside down as it stands, but it's also not light up and small price to pay for peace of mind.
    Most of the heat from CPU intensive apps should be at the bottom case, towards the top side (hinge), and at the vents along the screen's hinge (from the fans), so less heat on the display itself through the keyboard. The heat will also go right out from the top of the MBP in this case, and not out from the bottom (if MBP is placed with apple logo right side up), which will help to keep the MBP cool in general.

    #1 An original or very old style NID with a spark gap and ground wire can even get spiders in it that could cause an issue. Inspect the NID first before thinking of changes or wiring.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_interface_dev​ice
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demarcation_point
    Running a good quality wire CAT5, no need for CAT6,  directly to the NID for the DSL modem jack may help. That is what I had done with mine. Depending on the number of loads or amount of wire in the house could also cause issues. But if the user's signal quality is not being pulled low due to a wiring issues, it would usually indicate a problem elsewhere. Unless there was noise being picked up on the premises wiring. Wire DSL directly to the NID and install a filter there for all other in house wiring may help. There used to be available what was called a NID Filter, and I am sure you can still get them.
    Ideal Connection if house wiring is an issue, or very old, and lengthy. Install a filter / splitter at the NID.
    Run CAT5 directly to the NID location, and install a dedicated jack for the DSL modem.
    Remove all in house wiring from the NID.
    Connect piece of CAT5 from the NID to the filter / splitter input
    Connect all existing phone lines to the phone side of the filter output.
    Connect the new DSL CAT5 directly to the NID before the filter / splitter, or to the DSL side of the filter / splitter, depending on the device purchased.
    This will take all the existing premises wiring out of the picture unless there is a short circuit or excessive load somewhere in the house.
    At this point all the single filters could be removed because the DSL is filtered at the NID.

    #2 You can test outbound to Giganews. But giganews has/had a test that will check your inbound connection from their servers to you.
    I heard from another user that
        Giganews is being watched very closely because of multipart binaries, and pirated material. MP3s and Video Content. 7 years ago you could get 10-20 MP3 albums in a single day, and that was with a 15/5 fios connection. So they started providing an encrypted connection service for an added fee. I have not messed with news groups for a very long time. Now with deep packet inspection, and other enforcement, I would not even think of it. No news I want there. But there may be content that people want? They may even be checking and limiting speed from that domain. Never tested. But let me see. It looks as if reverse trace routes and speed tests are being blocked by Verizon from Giganews to my router.

If there are, then they could run the test with everything in the house disconnected, except the new DSL modem connection. If issues are still indicated, then the DSL provider needs to make connections on the local loop. Another user told me that they had issues when it rained, and it was because construction had left a splice box open on a line somewhere.

  • Silverlight (Lovefilm / Netflix) MBP 13" Early 2011, Heating and Exhaust Problems, Clamshell mode with TB Display

    Hi all
    I was hoping if someone can help me out...
    I have a:
    Mac Book Pro 13" (Early 2011) (i5, Crucial 8GB RAM, 120 OWC 6G SSD)
    Apple Thunderbolt Display
    I run my MBP in clamshell mode always.
    Whenever i run Netflix or Lovefilm video in full screen using either Firefox, Chrome or Safari. The Silverlight plug-in is hogging the CPU.
    My exhaust (CPU fan) goes crazy, its soo loud its annoying while your trying to watch a movie on your Thunderbolt Display.
    Temperature reaches: 83 Celsius
    Fan (Exhaust): 5620 - 6200 RPM (immediately jumps from 2001 to 5620 / 6200)
    If i watch a movie full screen on my 13" MBP with my Thunderbolt display disconnected:
    Temperature reaches:  81 Celsius
    Fan (Exhaust): 3198 RPM (it slowly crawls up form 1998 to 3193)
    Now i changed my resolution on my Thunderbolt disply to 1420x720 and it helps with the fans going crazy, they slow down slightly...
    I've tried a PRAM and SMC Reset, all my firmware is up to date.
    My Macbook Pro is slightly raised at the back so air can flow through the vents.
    My FANS are just going crazy!! something is ridicously heating up internally in my machine causing them to go mental.
    You just cannot watch a movie on netflix or lovefilm on your thunderbolt display comfortably if your fans go beyound 2800RPM.
    I even installed Windows 7 on Virtual Box and tried running lovefilm / silverlight and it did not help my problem.
    PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP! how can i keep my fans below 2800 RPM while running silverlight?!?!

    Flash like Silverlight are CPU heavy applications.
    The MacBook Pro can be run in clamshell mode but only when not running extremely CPU intensive tasks
    like what you are doing.
    If you keep the mac book running this way for too long you might stress the materials and run into danger of getting thermal damages.
    Chrome is actually in recent time getting very slow and I noticed in a comparision test that Firefox provides me up to 30 to 40% more free CPU time.
    If running netflix I would suggest currently NOT using Chrome.
    Windows 7 virtualized inside virtual box and then on top netflix is uhm a pretty bad idea because all those three things together are already CPU hogs.

  • Mid-2010 MacBook Pro stuck in clamshell mode?

    I asked a similar question to this earlier, but now the problem has been more consistent. I have a mid-2010 MacBook Pro that I often use with an external display, plugged in via mini-DVI to HDMI adapter. The problem is, after I've unplugged my macbook to "go mobile" and am away from my display, if I ever have to restart my computer or boot into Windows 7, my computer will think it's still in clamshell mode. The screen will stay dark, and if the lid is closed, the white light will stay on steadily, not pulsing. However, if I plug into my external display when this is happening, the external display works fine and I have a display again. When I look up my displays while connected to an external display while this is happening, my internal display isn't even listed in the system report; it's like it doesn't exist! And this is especially a problem now as I am away on a 3 week school related trip.
    I have not been able to consistently reproduce this problem. Sometimes it restarts normally, sometimes I restart it and get the gray + apple logo screen that then goes dark, and sometimes the internal display just never turns on. The problem doesn't seem to be related to an OS, as it happens when booting into Windows 7 OR mountain lion 10.8.5. I've tried resetting PRAM mutliple times as well as performing an SMC reset multiple times, and neither has helped. This even happened when I was booting into a mountain lion install USB, as I thought maybe a fresh install would help. I've seen many other forums discussing a similar issue, but none described quite like mine.
    What gives?? How can I get my macbook to restart normally? I really don't want to have to make a repair, even though it's looking like a hardware problem. My computer is one month after Apple Care has expired, and I can't afford a pricey repair as I'm a very in debt student who only has a MacBook because his school gave it to him in the first place. I would be very appreciative for any suggestions and/or help! Thanks!

    Hello thedoctor8706
    Reset your NVRAM and test to see if that resolves your issues. Typically that will resolve video, volume, startup disk selection, and kernel panic issues.

  • Can running Macbook Pro in Clamshell Mode cause problems for Macbook Display?

    Hi,
    I recently got a new monitor (Dell U2711) and it is stunning when running at full resolution through a mini displayport to displayport adapter. However, i ran my MBP in Clamshell Mode and after rebooting (without the display this time) i had horrible lines across my screen. It was like a grid, but they were tiny, it was like i could see the individual pixels or groups of about 4. I turned it off straight away and when i came back to it (about an hour or 2 later) it was as normal.
    I just want to know what is the regular behaviour of running in Clamshell? Is that to be expected? I know that Macbooks dissipate heat through the keyboard, so i wonder if it could be a heat related problem, and if that's something i should be worried about in relation to causing long term damage to my mac's display, or will it always sort itself out?
    Sadly, i can't recreate the problem as i have a faulty monitor and it needs to be sent back (i will be getting the same model as a replacement though).
    Does anyone have anything to say on this matter?
    Thanks in advance

    Is this a brand new, less then a year old, MBP? If it is then take it to a Apple care center and have them look at it.
    It's a refurb late 2008 that i bought in late 2009, but i do have apple care until september 2012 i think, i guess if the problem happens again i can take it in and they can sort me out.

    MBPs don't dissipate any significant amount of heat through the keyboard. No matter how often that misconception is posted, it's still a misconception.
    Ok, so it shouldn't be anything to do with heat then, i know the top left corner (closest to the screen) gets pretty hot too, just above the speaker, but from Shootist007's post, it would appear that heat doesn't have anything to do with it. I mean, i wasn't running intensive tasks, i was only browsing the internet.

  • Slow internet on mid 2011 macbook air

    So my internet is intermittently slow on my macbook air. This has been happening for many months although I cannot remember if it corresponded with upgrading to OS X 10.9. It is sporadic and I cannot identify any precipitating causes or solutions. My internet speed will just randomly drop and then eventually will correct itself where I will have the 15mbps download speed that I am paying for through my ISP. When the internet speed drops I will average 0.6 - 1.5mbps on speediest.net. This seems to be only isolated to my mid 2011 macbook air as my other laptop - a PC, and my iPhone show regular speeds. I have called my ISP and router customer service departments many times with no help. I have replaced my wireless router. Please help. 
    Nothing has worked. I have tried everything that I can think of including:
    1. Installed all OS updates - this seemed to work for about a day and then back to the same slow internet speed
    2. restarting the computer
    3. restarting in safe mode
    4. uninstalled and reinstalled the wifi network
    5. restart modem and router
    6. replaced router with a new model
    7. changed wireless security settings on wireless router and channels'
    8. changed DNS to google 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
    9 installed onyx and cleaned system
    10. ran virus check
    11. disabled safari plugins
    12. deleted preferences.plist and networkinterfaces.plist
    13 turned off bluetooth on mac
    14. turned off wifi on all other devices
    15. disabling and enabling wifi networks
    16. run diagnostics on wifi - normal

    run diagnostics on wifi - normal
    It's not clear if that was the result of using Apple's Wireless Diagnostics. It may supply some additional helpful information.
    To use it, hold an option key while you click your Mac's Wi-Fi icon, and choose Open Wireless Diagnostics...
    The following authentication dialog will appear:
    Authenticate with your Admin password, then click the Continue button in the following:
    The network analysis and diagnostic tests will take several minutes to complete:
    When it completes, if your wireless network is functioning properly the following will result:
    If something is amiss, supposedly the results will be different and you will be presented with helpful information.
    Assuming your connection is "working as expected" select Continue to summary and click Continue:
    Ignore the pre-populated text field, which is provided as a place for you to type in additional information should Apple ask for it in the course of obtaining technical assistance from them. Apple has no way of knowing where your router is located in your home, and certainly doesn't know if you even have an upstairs bedroom closet.
    Click Continue.
    The next step will also take a few minutes:
    When it finishes, you will be presented with a summary that may or may not be useful to you. Let me know if it is.
    The WirelessDiagnostics-xxx.tar.gz file deposited on your Desktop can be dragged to the Trash, or you may wish to expand it and examine its contents. It's up to you.

  • MacBook late 2008 - stuck in clamshell mode

    This laptop was recently attached to an external display and all was fine - running in either mirror or non-mirror mode. When I last saw it it was set to mirror mode and the lid closed to effect "clamshell" mode.
    Recently however it has got into a state where the built-in screen display is not recognised. The external display is OK. If the external display is disconnected the MacBook will go to sleep regardless of the lid being open or pressing keys etc.
    On a reboot the laptop screen will show everything OK up until a few seconds after completeing the login phase - then it goes black.
    There is a lot of chatter in various forums about sleep issues but I can't see much about this particular variation. I've spent several hours scanning through these discussions and general Google searches.
    As I say in the title - the symptoms appear to be that the firmware believes the lid is closed and hence the OS X software, such as display preferences, gets locked out from accessing the display after startup is complete. If the OS decides there is no display present it puts the MacBook to sleep.
    I have reset the PRAM and SMC, rebooted in Safe Mode, deleted the display preferences plist file, run the Apple Hardware Test - all with no change to the symptoms.
    Hass anybody reading this observed the same symptom and noted a method to fix it?
    Thanks,
    Graham

    I had a similar issue where my Late 2008 Macbook would get stuck in closed clamshell mode after connecting and disconnecting an external display, or just closing the lid.  Only rebooting the machine would bring back internal video. 
    External video continued working via the mini displayport, but the internal display would stay black no matter if the external display was connected or not.  I was also unable to adjust the display brightness from the internal keyboard, pressing the F1 and F2 keys had no effect (even while holding fn key).  Resetting PRAM and SMC had no effect.
    I resolved all aforementioned issues by replacing the HDD Bracket with IR/Sleep Cable.  This can likely be done fairly cheaply at a local Apple Store.
    I might suggest first having the HDD Cable and or IR/Sleep Cable reseated on the main logic board, before replacing anything.

  • Rainbow spinning cursor and slow internet recently

    I am not very tech savvy but I will try and describe what is going on. Recently (last week or so) my computer has been extremely slow and the rainbow spinning cursor seems to appear all the time. I notice it mainly when I am using the internet, mainly because I am mostly on the internet when I use my computer. I believe it is a problem with my computer because my husband has a 2011 MacBook Pro and he does not have any problems with his computer. My computer is a 2010 MacBook Pro, and I ran an Etre Check to see if it helps. I typically use Google Chrome as my browser (we both do) and my operating system is OS X.
