Connection times out (but only on Leopard)

I run an iMac (one year old) and connect to the web via Airport. I'm having consistent problems with the connection timing out after 2 or 3 minutes; it's really frustrating and is pretty constant. It's not an Airport problem because I can connect my old Dell quite solidly ( which I'm typing this one) and my iPod Touch without any problems. It started about three months ago
So it's only the iMac affected. Any ideas? I'm not a techie and I'm new to Macs

I'm getting these time-outs as well. Computer is fine for the first few minutes, then when I try to go to a new URL (Safari) it appears I'm not connected anymore. When I quit and relaunch Safari, it comes back up. At first I thought it was a router issue but now I don't think so, because when I ran Network Diagnostics, it said I'm connected.

    I'm using SSH to connect to the server where this problem is happening, indicating that the LAN connection works. Before invoking pacman I've tried pinging google.com, which works flawlessly.
    The problem is still there, I just tried it.

  • HT4628 my powerbook g4 os x 10.5.8 leopard is showing-Connection time out while connecting to the wifi.however it showing all available wifi connections around but not connecting it..however ethernet is working

    Problem while connecting with Wi-Fi,
    When i am connecting my powerbook g4 leopard  to any Wi-fi connection it showing -Connection time out, however Ethernet is working .I have updated all softwares but still same problem.

    It's possible that either the internal AirPort Extreme card or the antenna is faulty or has failed.
    One last thing to try before going with another Wi-Fi solutions is to the following:
    Try the following, in order, until (hopefully) resolved:
    1a. Delete Preferred Network(s)
    System Preferences > Network > AirPort > Advanced > AirPort tab
    Under "Preferred Networks," delete the network(s) you regularly use from the list.
    1b. Delete AirPort Keychain Entries
    Launch the "Keychain Access" application located in Applications/Utilties.
    Click on the "Kind" filter at the top, and look for any "AirPort network password" entries...and delete them.
    1c. Add Preferred Network(s)
    System Preferences > Network > AirPort > Advanced > AirPort tab
    Add the preferred network(s) using the "+" button.
    Restart or log out then back in.
    2. Move System Configuration Files
    (Note: You will have to reestablish your network connections settings.)
    Go to /Library/Preferences
    Move the SystemConfiguration folder to the desktop.
    Restart your Mac. (Note: OS X will rebuild the files that are now sitting on your desktop. If this doesn't resolve the issue, you can move the folder back to it's original location.)
    3. Run the Disk Utility to repair Disk Permissions.
    Restart or log out then back in.
    4. Turn off the Mac OS X Firewall
    System Preferences > Sharing > Firewall
    Click the "Stop" button.
    5. Create a New User Account
    System Preferences > Accounts
    Click "+" to add a new account
    Log off, then log back on with the new user account.
    Try connecting with the AirPort.
    If none of these help resolve the issue, you may want to consider getting a USB wireless adapter to replace both the internal card and antenna. One such vendor of these adapters is Other World Computing (OWC).

  • I am having Macbook Pro, I have recently tried updating my operating system to OS Yosemite, but after that its giving problem in connecting to Wifi. The error is "Connection Time out Occurred". Its getting connected by Ethernet cable.

    I am having Macbook Pro, I have recently tried updating my operating system to OS Yosemite, but after that its giving problem in connecting to Wifi. The error is "Connection Time out Occurred". Its getting connected by Ethernet cable.

    Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved. Some of these steps are only possible if you have control over the wireless router.
    Step 1
    Turn Wi-Fi off and back on.
    Step 2
    Restart the router and the computer. Many problems are solved that way.
    Step 3
    Change the name of the wireless network, if applicable, to eliminate any characters other than letters and digits. You do that on your router via its web page, if it's not an Apple device, or via AirPort Utility, if it is an Apple device.
    Step 4
    Run the Network Diagnostics assistant.
    Step 5
    In OS X 10.8.4 or later, run Wireless Diagnostics and fix the issues listed in the Summary, if any.
    Step 6
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Enter the name of your wireless network in the search box. You should have one or more "AirPort network password" items with that name. Make a note of the name and password, then delete all the items. Quit Keychain Access. Turn Wi-Fi off and then back on. Reconnect to the network.
    Step 7
    You may need to change other settings on the router. See the guidelines linked below:
    Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    Potential sources of interference
    Step 8
    Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
    Step 9
    Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).

  • Cannot connect to WIFI - 'connection time out occured' but also says 'no ip address'

    Hi,
    I've searched the web and found endless issues with the wifi router / etc of the Imac Lion system. On the same wifi network we have a mac book (leopard I think), a pc laptop (which I am using now) and 2 phones + my brand new Imac with Lion osx. The first 4 items all connect with no problems.
    I tried some of the sollutions here but it even made it worse as I now not have any connection at all!
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4628
    When I try to connect trhough systems preferences/network I get the message that my password is incorrect and that there is no IP address. Password is definitely correct. When I try to connect from the symbol in the right top corner - I get the message 'connection time out occured'
    I am a bit of a Mac dummy ... any help is really appreciated.
    Thanks
    Billie

    Hi BDAqua,
    Thanks a lot for getting back to me.
    Not so sure what your first questions means - or how to check this?
    I tried joining other Wi-Fi network:
    If I choose security 'WPA Personal' i get the message: connection time out
    If I choose security 'WPA2 Personal' or 'WEP'  i get the message@ no network found
    hmmmm any suggestions? Thanks so much

    What is going on?
    It's being rewritten by dhclient or dhcpcd, most likely. You can put your settings in /etc/resolv.conf.head to get them to stick, because when dhcpcd rewrites resolv.conf it includes the contents of resolv.conf.head at the start of the file. You can also tell dhcpcd not to rewrite resolv.conf by adding "nohook resolv.conf" to /etc/dhcpcd.conf. I assume you can do the same with dhclient, but I don't know how off the top of my head and I'm writing this from a train with very patchy coverage on my phone so I'm having trouble getting the page to load.
    The culprit may also be pppd, if you're running ppp connections off this machine. You can disable usepeerdns in the config for that ppp peer.

  • Connection time-out issues each first try of pacman

    Hi,
      I am new to arch. I keep getting a connection time-out each time I use pacman for the first time. I have to do a ctrl+z to stop the command and then delete the db.lck file and then when I run pacman again, any operation on pacman that I had tried works flawlessly.
      Do I need to do something to fix this? I check there was a similar thread in 2012, but it ended without any results.
    Cheers,

    I'm pretty sure you can disable all the mirrors you don't want to use, try lowering the list to only those in Asia to minize your waiting time atleast. I get a time-out occasionally on the first run, but running anything inside China's GFW is a roll of the dice.

  • Connection Timed Out (Browsing only)

    Hello
    First of all I want to say Thanks BT for providing such amazing service since I switch from 02 2 years ago. 
    I currently got BT Infinity 2 unlimited download 76mb and it has been flawless! No problems whatsoever. I even had a mini LAN even during xmas. The speed is incredible! 
    However recently for the past few weeks my cable connection computer is constantly suffering a connection time out when browsing. So when accessing BBC Sport Facebook or Reddit it just times out randomly then after few seconds everything is ok again. My family streams alot and the laptops on wireless all seems fine. Strangly my bro and I also watch Twitch alot because of League of Legends. The time out only occurs in browsing however during league of legend chat window I also getting a time out notification. 
    This is not a serious problem as myself and my brother havent had a connection time out during online games so far. But the browsing issue is getting very annoying. Just wondering has anyone had this issue?

  • Incompatible Security and Connection time out

    Ok, since installing leopard, I have not been able to connect to the stronger of my two wireless connections. The weak on, which is WPA connects fine, when I can get a strong enough signal. The second, WEP (I know, people say it's weak, but thats what I have.) But the password I put in, and it is the correct password, keeps saying that it is the wrong password when I do the "assist me" option.
    When I just try to connect using the drop down menu on the airport icon, it says "incompatible security" and once in a while, it will say "connection time out".
    I did a search, but none of the solutions here have worked. Any help would be greatly appreciated, because as a student I need the wireless connection for homework purposes, and I cant tolerate a weak connection.
    Please help

    Hi.
    I can't connect to WEP networks either with Leopard 10.5.1.
    It just says "incompatible Security". I've tried it for one hour without any luck.
    Why doesn't Apple realize that there are millions of WEP encrypted networks out there and that it is essential to be able to connect to them. (it worked with Tiger, didn't it?)
    Is there a knowledge base article out there what to do about it?
    I just can't walk to hotel managers and ask them to switch to WPA, especially if they don't have a clue how to do that and older windows computers won't be able to connect any more.
    Why a transparent menu bar but no way to connect to WEP networks?
    I'm very disappointed. Apple, fix this! (now!)
    Is there actually a way to get your money back for Leopard if this basic things don't work anymore?
    Thank you for any help.

  • [SOLVED] Pacstrap connection time-out

    SOLUTION: Don't be a newbie like me and not know what DNS stands for. What I did to solve my problem was simply modify my /etc/resolv.conf to point to 8.8.8.8 instead of my default gateway.
    G'day everyone, I apologize in advance for my lack of experience.
    I understand this distribution is not for beginners, but I personally love steep learning curves as it provides the most enjoyable and interesting experience for me.
    It's also the fastest way to learn.
    Albeit, I have yet to even successfully install Arch!
    I'm a little put off, but I've already deleted my Windows partition so now I am committed.
    Anyways, so I've been following the absolutely wonderful Beginner's guide. But I seem to have made some huge mistake, or something is terribly wrong.
    I'm only upto the part where it suggest typing "pacstrap /mnt base base-devel".
    However when I put that command in, I am eventually returned with:
    1 root@archiso ~ # pacstrap mnt base base-devel
    ==> Creating install root at /mnt
    ==> Installing packages to /mnt
    warning: database file for 'core' does not exist
    : : Synchronizing package databases...
    error: failed retrieving file 'core.db' from mirror.aarnet.edu.au : Connection time-out
    error: failed retrieving file 'core.db' from ftp.iinet.net.au : Connection time out
    Etc etc. I tried using the original Mirrorlist and that gave me back 30 odd different server connection time outs. So I switched to just the Australian servers. It managed to download the 'extra' and 'community' packages when I swapped (they weren't downloading earlier either).
    I've done a bit of searching (probably not enough) but I'm about to head off to sleep as it's almost midnight and I have work tomorrow. So I figured there's no harm in posting as that gives people many hours to respond. What I did find in my searching was that things like this occur when iPv6 is enabled. Unfortunately I don't have the luxury of restarting (or so I believe), because as you may have seen I'm actually trying to still install! So I'm a little stuck? Any help at all is appreciated, even if it's like

  • Itunes update to firmware fails, because connection times out.

    I have been unsuccessfully attempting to update my iphone 3gs and ipad to iOS 5 for over a month now.  I have spent many, many hours on this, and many phone calls to apple support.  I disable Norton 360, and windows firewall, and my firewall on my router.  I've tried updating my router's firmware, which bricked the router--thanks apple for insisting this was the problem, and I have replaced the router, with a new one.  Itunes diagnostics gives me the following information.  I am using itunes as the administrator in Windows 7, 64 bit, although itunes doesn't recognize it, unless I reinstall it as the administrator, but then once I restart the computer, itunes no longer recognizes that I using Windows as an admin. 
    Also, the firmware cannot update, because the connection times out, despite all my firewalls, and antivirus being turned off.
    I've tried downloading iOS 5 and then updating using restore, but that didn't work.  I've poured through support forums, and error codes: I get 1611, etc.  Cannot seem to resolve this.

  • Connection time out

    Hello everyone,
    I'm using modem PK5000 from Century Link. My other two desktops are using Window and in the same room w my modem.
    I got connection time out every time my computer started playing the screen saver.
    All I have to do is restarting my modem but it's so unconvinience.
    I called Century Link customer service and all they told me is changing the channel but it didn't solve the problem.
    At school and other people's places, my wifi works just fine.
    I used cleanmymac about a month ago and this problem started a week ago.
    Can cleanmymac cause the problem? If so, how can I check and fix it?
    I check the apple store to update my software but everything is up to date.
    Can it be the firmware of my modem? My brother who uses the two desktops (and they connect to the modem with LAN cables) upgraded firmware last week and it seems like when the problem started.
    And when my Mac loses the wifi signal, my printer still has the signal, but my desktop cannot log-in to page 192.168.0.1 which manages the modem and wifi even though the desktop connects w my modem by LAN cable and it still connects to the internet.
    If you have any clue, please help!
    Thank you so much!

    attribute set to NotSupported (I do this because I need
    non-transactional semantics in the called method).
    If the EJB call take more than about a minute to complete, then I get a
    datasource error when using the data source in the MDB after the return
    (see error at bottom). However, if the call completes quickly, then I do
    not get this error. It seems like the datasource connection somehow
    times out, but I don't see where I can change this timeout.
    pseudocode:
    // timeout set to 3600 seconds
    transactional MDB onMessage() {
    // receive connection from Oracle BEA driver
    // myEJB performLongOperation has transaction attribute
    // set to NotSupported
    String result = myEJB.performLongOperation();
    // use connection from Oracle BEA driver
    If the performLongOperation takes more than about a minute, then I get
    the following error when using the connection after the operation:
    Caused by: java.sql.SQLException: XA error: XAER_NOTA : The XID is not
    valid start() failed on resource 'Oracle IDENT Connection Pool':
    XAER_NOTA : The XID is not valid

    Thanks for the reply.
    I don't have contract customer support access with BEA, and thus I can't
    download the patch. Is there any other workaround for this?
    Thanks
