I am having trouble connecting to my network all of a sudden. It is not an issue with the service/router. I keep getting kicked off and getting a ! in my airport... anyone know what's up with this?

I am having trouble connecting to my network all of a sudden. I am able to connect to other networks but not my own. It is not an issue with the service/router because other devices connect fine. I keep getting kicked off and getting a ! in my airport. Last time it happended I called apple and the suggested I wipe my HD and reinstall everything. I did and it did not work. One day I turned my laptop on and it connected no problem. Now it has kicked me off again. I tried resetting my IP address but that does not work either! Has anyone had this problem?

Try this:
Apple menu / System Preferences / Network.
Click Location: and select Edit Locations..
Click + (plus sign), and enter a name for the new location - anything will do.
Apply this.

If the iPad is bouncing between the networks, than that is likely an issue with the iPad wireless supplicant behavior. The error message in red above is likely due to the device switching with fast-ssid change disabled.
So, if we are more concerned with why the device keeps moving between networks, we should capture a bit more data. Running a longer client debug should give us some additional data points.
I've seen similar behavior with Apple devices when they "Remember" wifi networks -- sometimes you need to "Forget" other networks in the area to stop the device from associating to it automatically.
Also, version of WLC code are you running?

HT4972 I updated my ipad to ios 5 because I kept getting kicked off of my wifi network. Upgrading did not help. Are there any other solutions? (I've also tried resetting the network settings)

My ipad keeps kicking me off of my known wifi network. I turned off the wifi and turned it back on, reset the network, and finally upgraded to ios5 but I keep getting kicked off. My laptop is connected so it's not a wifi issue. The ipad is a first generation one..Any help is appreciated

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Getting kicked off of VNC connection when logging into server

We have noticed that when we log into the VNC server, and sign into the console of the server, that we get kicked off of the VNC connection. If we wait a few seconds then connect again we get the desktop of the server.
What is causing this? I use JollysFastVNC 0.98.50 (928701) and a coworker of mine uses ChickenoftheVNC, both are on Macs. It is very annoying. I do like that when I'm done and I log off of the console that it also logs me out of the VNC connection. But kicking me out for logging in is absurd.
Thanks,
Ben
PS. The server is Mac OS X 10.6.1 on a Mac Mini last generation, since they just came out with a new one.

I linked to the free client. That is what runs on the computer that you you turn on in System Preferences --> Sharing, so you are going to want to install that on the server, not the machine you are connecting from. If you installed it on both it doesn't matter—it was there anyway as part of the OS. It is built into the OS, but a reinstall can fix problems and makes sure you have the latest version. The ARD application is what you would use to connect with from the machine you are sitting in front of. That is what costs money. Apple calling the software "client" can be confusing.
Have you turned on the VNC option under either Screen Sharing or Remote Management. You will need that to connect with a third party VNC app like JollysFastVNC or Tight. If you don't turn that on then the built in Screen Sharing app should just work (accessible from Safari or the Connect to Server dialog in finder by typing vnc://ipofserver)
It is hard to say if this is a SL bug, or a problem on your network since you only have one machine to test. You could try running Vine Server on your server. You will want to change it's port to something else like 5901, or at least turn off Screen Sharing so it doesn't conflict ports. If you change the port you would connect by typing vnc://ipofserver:5901
In Vine be sure to use System Server (under Server menu) to keep vine running all the time, even after a reboot.

I keep getting kicked off of my wifi on my macbook pro. It is the wifi in my house. I get kicked off like every few minutes or so. Why is this and how can I stop it?

I keep getting kicked off of my wifi on my macbook pro. It is the wifi in my house. I get kicked off like every few minutes or so. Why is this and how can I stop it?

I think the other devices are fine. I'm not sure. It usually only happens like a couple days out of the week. I do know that the network I'm using when I click on the wifi symbol at the top of my screen doesn't have a padlock on it. It IS MY network that is at my house, but maybe that has something to do with it.

5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

My computer keeps getting kicked off wifi and says there is a connection timeout.

My computer keeps getting kicked off the wifi- it's not s problem with the wifi because all my other wireless products are working just fine. What could the problem be? It will connect for about 5 seconds and then says the there is a connection timeout.

Delete the Wi-Fi connection in the Network preference pane, then recreate it with the same settings. Any difference?

IMac Internet Connection Issues (Why do I keep getting kicked off?)

Hi All.
I have a 24" aluminum iMac that doesn't like to stay connected to the internet via ethernet or Airport. I recently moved and am using a Clear modem that I am directly connected to via ethernet and the modem is functioning fine. My Mac will access the internet perfectly and then then next morning not have a connection at all. Diagnostics fail at Network Settings.
I have renewed my DHCP lease, restarted both comp and modem...jumped through all the hoops with a Clear rep. Still nothing. Not using any routers or 3rd party devices to connect unless using the Airport.
We have free internet where we live and my Airport will detect the router, but will not connect to the internet. The airport reads full signal strength, so there should be no issue. I have not changed my firewall or privacy settings, so there should be no issue there either. I did recently upgrade my Firefox application.
With both the Airport and ethernet I seemed to just be getting "kicked off" the internet. Each time I get kicked off, reconnecting is more of a chore...Please help Thank you in advance for any help you can provide!

Hi Rick.
I have Clear internet service, which does not run via cable or telephone line. I assume it is DSL. My Mac acted the same when I was on cable though, only the connection always come back after resetting the linksys router I had at the time. It only seems to drop the connection after waking from sleep mode.
I am using a standard ethernet cable. At times, in the Network portion of System Preferences, the status of my ethernet reads "unplugged" when the ethernet cord is still connected.
I double checked the connection speed within the network utility, as you suggested, and everything looks as it should.
The wireless situation...I do not have control over the router. It is free wireless via a linksys router in our apartment complex (only 5 or 6 units). I have never been able to connect to this but the other computers in the household pick up the signal perfectly.
Thanks for your help Rick. I appreciate it very much.

Wifi help I keep getting kicked off home wifi

I keep getting kicked off home wifi

I too had connection problems-
Reset your network settings on your iPad if you haven't already done so. Go to General settings; scroll down and tap Reset; tap Network settings. You'll have to renter you wifi security code for you router.
In my case my wifi only iPad 3 was confused when the settings changed on my router:
Every other wifi device in my home easily connected on my home network, but I had a problem connecting with my wifi only iPad 3. An apple representative suggested I reset my Network Settings on my iPad and everything worked again.
The problem occurred when my cable / phone company reset my router Oct 1. They are rolling out "wifi everywhere" promotion at the expense of sharing everybody's router connection. Somehow they reset my router, probably through an upgrade, and now my router offers a free hotspot. I found my router with my usual password protected network AND a free hotspot connection! The router software has new menu and selections for creating a free hotspot. I think this new router partition confused my iPad. After resetting my ipad Network Settings and restarting my iPad I no longer have connection problems. But I've also switched; Ask to join networks ON in my iPad's wifi settings to insure I stay on my routers secure network instead of my new free hotspot.
At first I thought; 8ASTURDS! and thought i'd delete the free wifi partition on my router. But I'm pretty darn rural and this allows friends visiting my house to connect without giving them my wifi password or them being hassled with entering the long hexadecimal code.
This may not be your case, but goes to show;Not everything is Apple's fault...

My mac book pro keeps getting kicked off home wifi

My Mac Book Pro keeps getting kicked off wifi.When I get kicked out I turn Airport on and off ,it then works for a few minutes then I have to turn Airport on and off again.Any Ideas?
Thank you

Hello there Joanny,
I have a neat lil gem here about troubleshooting wifi connectivity on the Mac OS platform. Named Troubleshooting Wi-Fi issues in OS X Lion and Mac OS X v10.6 it can be found here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4628?viewlocale=en_US. I recommend this section first:
Use these steps if your computer disconnects from its Wi-Fi network unexpectedly.
Check your range to the Wi-Fi router and reduce the effect of interference.If your computer is too far from your Wi-Fi router or your environment has too much Wi-Fi interference, then your computer may not detect the Wi-Fi network properly. The easiest way to check for range limits with your Wi-Fi network is to move your computer or your Wi-Fi router closer together and make sure that there are no obstructions (such as walls, cabinets, and so forth) between the router and your computer.See Potential sources of wireless interference for more information about interference and solutions.
Try connecting to a different Wi-Fi network. If your computer works fine when connected to a different Wi-Fi network, then the issue may be related to your network router or ISP. In that case, contact the manufacturer of your router or your ISP.
And this section if needed: Symptom: My Mac does not connect to the Internet.
Take care,
Sterling

Kicked off network at night and cant reconnect til...

Okay so almost every night (usually around midnight but sometimes earlier) at least one of our computers gets kicked off the network even though the all the lights on the hub are on and I can see its still active on the computer. Even my friend's xbox get kicked off. When I try to reconnect the computers it says windows was unable to connect, and troubleshooting suggests I'm not in range or that i should checked my adapter's settings. I checked and everything seemed fine. Also ran antivirus and whatnot, but found nothing.
Im not a very computer smart person so I really dont know what's wrong. Im posting it here mainly because I already have an account, Bt is my internet provider and I have a homehub, and a friend said Bt could be kicking me off (but he has a grudge against bt after having an argument with techsupport on the phone, and blames most computer problems on them).
Please help, or if this is the wrong forums point me elsewhere. Thanks.

Sorry I took so long to reply, been busy.
I changed the channel, still getting kicked off at night. And we've had bt broadband for over a year now I think so...
Also I should probably mention we do have other issues that I guess are similar.
-If downloading a large file the computer doing so gets kicked off the network and usually cant re-connect for half a day. (very annoying)
-I don't think the speeds are what they should be but we live in the countryside(ish) and its nowhere near unbearable.
-When me or my sister load up the game team fortress2 the hub resets.(haven't tried in the last few weeks)
-Sometimes at night after being kicked I see a CT homehub as well as my BT homehub and openzone on the connection list.
-Router resets once or so a week.
Any ideas?
Sorry for the bother.

Getting kicked off of ichat

Okay, I am getting kicked off of ichat without even knowning that I am offline. I am hooked up through a linksys wireless router wrt54g model. Also, I ALWAYS get an error message when trying to connect to videochat. any help on this would be great!
Thank you in advance.

Hi Trenchtown,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions
If you mean that when you have logged in to the AIM servers that you get silent drops in connection...
(iChat looks like it is connected but Buddies report you look off line and during chats the Texts. stop coming and they don't get yours)
Then go to the Airport icon in the Menu Bar if you have it there and Select Signal Robustness.
