Guest-wired access connections drop every 1- 2 minutes

I have an interesting problem.
My connections to the guest wired access drop consistanly every 1 -2 minutes. There are no drops in the mobility between the WiSM and the 4402 anchor in the DMZ. DHCp is served from the 4402 DMZ controller as well as thier authentication.
When a user connects to the guest wired access vlan some times they obtain a 169.X.X.X address and after several tries they get the proper 192.168.x.x addres. The user get thier IP address and get the redirect login. They maintain thier internet connection for only 1 - 2 minutes.
DHCP on the 4402 is set for 4hours
Any thoughts ?

Ouch, the forums ate my formatting for that first post!
Thanks for the reply Ray. I should mention that this is a shared house, not a family home, so I cannot always access the devices. I'm the one on the ethernet connection and I've gone into my ethernet adaptor's settings to change my IP address to a static number just below that of the DHCP range whilst leaving DHCP enabled for everyone else. After restarting my computer the connection's still dropping.
Haven't had a chance to reset the hub yet, if that's necessary, as other people are using the connection at the moment.
I do have the admin password for the hub but I'm under the impression a static IP address would have to be set from the devices themselves which I can't access - or can I use Home Network > Devices, check "Always use this IP address" then disable DHCP?

ADSL connection dropping every 1 - 5 minutes

Even though I had reconnections from the very beginning, it has gotten a lot worse over the last week. The connection now rarely survives a time frame longer than 5 minutes.

Skype connection drops every 1-2 minutes

Hi Everybody,
I use skype for desktop windows pc; and I also have a skype on-line number.
When I call to landline numbers or people call me from landline numbers, skypes disconnects after about 1-2 minutes of talking.
Anyone has experienced this?
Thanks.

Take it back to the store, you have like 90 days of free hand holding and they also check the machine for hardware issues.
Buy AppleCare and a couple of external powered drives, one for TimeMachine and one for a bootable clone.

Infinity connection drops every time I use the lan...

So I've discussed this on here before with no joy (https://community.bt.com/t5/BT-Infinity-Speed-Connection/connection-drops-every-time-I-get-a-call-on... and I've tried swapping out all the equipment with no success. It is driving us mad now....we have to unplug the landline if we're going to use the Internet for a protracted period, just in case!
Advice please: where do I go from here? When I use the broadband section to report a fault I end up in a dead-end of self-help docs.
Do I report it as a phone line problem (and pay for an engineer to visiit) even though the phone line tests out OK?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Well, that will teach me to be so optimistic..
So I'm now £129 lighter and using a new line...and the broadband doesn't drop out everytime the phone rings..
BUT it drops out periodically all the time now.. AND the speed is much less than before (I get 30 Mbps on a good day..15 Mbps is typical ,and it was less than 10 Mbps today before it dropped out completely). This may sound churlish to some but I work from home sometimes and the drop in speed, coupled with the frequent disconnections, is making it unworkable...
So I've reported the fault and despite the very nice Indian woman telling me that '15 Mbps is typical for wireless' after going through a very lengthy script, I am not happy. Wireless/Wired = makes no difference..I've tried...
Since its worse than before I've asked whether than can switch me back to my old line..the call raised on the 11th was marked as resolved today although I've still no resolution even though I was promised an answer within 24 hours..and have been promised that again today...and nobody rings me on my contact number that I give them (and is in my MyBT profile) but spurious 'we tried to contact you' messages are left on my home answerphone while I'm at work...
Resolved
Broadband fault VOL011-***********
*sigh* according to the official checker I should be getting better....

Did you try upgrading them to the latest (1 week ago released) firmware update 1.1.0.4?

ADSL connection drops every 30 - 60 mins & strange...

I recently moved house and an engineer came to connect my phone line on Thursday morning. He had a few problems: after spending about half an hour up a telegraph mast he went to the local cab for 90 minutes to fix another problem. This all took 2 or 3 hours, but eventually I had a working phone line. The engineer explained it would take a few hours more for the broadband to start working.
Later that evening, my broadband kicked in. Blue light, all happy. Straight away, my connection speed was great. I was getting results of 15Mbps from speedtest.net and a 15ms ping. This came as a surprise, as I thought new lines normally started quite slowly and then built up speed over the first couple of days.
... then my connection dropped less than 60 minutes later. I logged onto my new Home Hub 4 to find that it said the internet was disconnected. I told it to reconnect, which it promptly did. Everything was fine.... for about 30 minutes, but then it disconnected again. This time, I left the Home Hub alone. After a few minutes it sorted itself out and I had working internet again.
This has been happening constantly on loop for the past 2 days. Any suggestions?
I've tried running a few tests that have been mentioned in this forum. They seem to have some strange results!
1. If I enter my phone number into http://diagnostics.bt.com/login/?workflow=Connectivity it states that "It doesn't look like you're using a BT Home Hub", even though I am.
2. The results from btwholesale.com/includes/adsl says that I have a 1Mbps line
3. My connection stats seem to look fairly healthy, other than my connection time (it just died again when I went to take a screenshot).
Any idea?
Cheers!

have you tried a factory reset of hub using the recessed button on back and holding for 20/30 secs until lights flash?
if you do a factory reset then turn off smart setup http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/44328/~/switching-smart-setup-on-and-off-on-the-bt-ho...
then split the networks http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/44798/related/1
try quiet line test dial 17070 option 2 should be quiet and best with corded phone

Wired Internet connection drops since 10.5.7

Since installing the 10.5.7 update I've had trouble with my Internet connection dropping while I'm using it. I have a wired connection and have checked the cables and the router port and there doesn't seem to be a physical problem. I'll be browsing the Internet and without warning it will suddenly stop working. A minute or two later it will have recovered. This happens every few minutes and it's very aggravating.
I do not use a wireless connection and have turned off Airport.
When the connection drops, I am unable to ping the router. If I run ifconfig I see it has a 169.254.x.x address. Once the system recovers, I can once again ping the router and the IP number is what the router assigns.
I ran cat /var/log/system.log and here is an excerpt:

I don't know if the problem is related to an incompatibility with VMware Fusion or not. I have both Windows and Linux virtual machines on this Mac. I'm not actively using VMware when I have the connectivity problem.

I posted this on an other topic last night
Hi,
New to this forum. Landed here because of airport issues after 10.5.7. update.
Airport could not connect to my network, but it detected other networks.
I tried some steps suggested in this thread but it didn't work. Then I looked into my router and disabled the "hide accespoint" option. That worked. Airport connected immidiatly. I restarted and still had connection. I then enabled the "hide accespoint" option, restarted, had to log in manualy ("connect to other network"), gave my networkname and password and until now everything works okay.
Maybe the 10.5.7. update chanched something in the airport//router setting/visability.
Giel.

Wireless connection drops every day -- iTunes 8.02 the problem??

Hello! Our iMac is connected to the internet via Airport, and we have rarely had problems with the connection. For the last two weeks, when I get on the iMac for the first time that day, I have to reconnect to the wireless network through the Airport Setup Assistant every single time. I've tried resetting our cable modem and Airport -- no effect on the problem. I've tried going into sleep mode without logging off to see if that might help -- nope. I've tried repairing permissions in the off-chance that that might help -- no again.
In something that seems more than just a coincidence, we updated our iTunes to 8.02 about two weeks ago, and that's when this problem began happening. I am especially suspicious that there's a link because we did not update iTunes on our Macbook and it has no problem whatsoever staying connected to the exact same wireless network.
Two questions, then:
-- Is the iTunes 8.02 update the problem?
-- If so, how do I go back to iTunes 7.7?
Thanks!

Hi, I'm new to iTunes and apple, but this is happening to me too! I've got iTunes 8 and whenever I run it, my wireless connection drops (disables itself) and cannot be restarted without rebooting the machine. Did you manage to find an answer?

PPTP connection dropped every 120 mins

Hi guys,
I am using a pptp server running on windows 2008 server and I have configured my ASA 5520 to let the PPTP traffic to pass throught.
The solution works quite well but exactly every 120 minutes the connection drops and people have to reconnect. Is there any setting to change? In the PPTP server I haven't found any setting to change.
Thanks,
Dario

Connect drops every time phone rings

I have BT BB1, but I use BT analogue for phone calls (I have pay for free 24 x 7).
However everytime the phone is used, by BB connect drops.
Any ideas?

No doubt a microfilter problem. Either one is faulty, you have them configured incorrectly or you have an unfiltered telephone somewhere; Skybox is usually favourite for not being filtered as people forget it is connected to the telephone system.
If you have a microfilter problem somewhere then you are also likely not getting the best speed out of your broadband either. Usually, I find that customers broadband speed improves, as well as stability, once the filter issues are resolved
I'm a noob here so can't point you in the direction of relevant help page (yet), although I think someone did it already in a previous post.

Wireless mesh backhaul drop every 2 -3 minutes

I have 4 1242 A/G (A is the backhaul and G is for clients, NO WLC) in a mesh with 1 as tha RAP and 3 and the MAP. All aps have the same antenna 2.4 has patch 7.5dbi and the 5.0 has a 6dbi omni. The syslog shows that the backhaul is dropping every 1-2 mintues because of maxreties. The distance between the RAP and MAP is about 300ft, and the AP are about 12-15ft off the ground in a indoor parking garage for 100-40ft mass transit bus.(40 passangerbuses). What could be causing the backhaul to drop?
Thanks

Was this working before and just now stopped working ?

Why does Home share Connection drop every night?

Hello all!
I have three Apple Tv 3's hooked up, 2 wired, the other one wireless. I can stay connected to home sharing all day on all three of them without issue. But for some reason, every morning they have all three lost connection to home sharing. Even restarting the device does not reconnect it. All I can do is exit out of itunes and restart it. Then the home sharing is connected again and I can access my files.
This wouldn't be such a big deal if it was just me, but my wife does not want to have to fool with this every morning to play videos for our daughter. I was using Boxee Boxes prior to this and they worked flawlessly.
The computer does not go to sleep or hibernate and neither do the apple tv's. I have tested with firewall and anti-virus disabled. Called Apple support and they are clueless. Any ideas?

Two things jump into my mind: poor WiFi signal strength on the desktop PC or a dirty OS installation on the desktop PC. I'm quite sure that this has nothing to do with the cisco VPN client itself.
Assuming that you reach your remote workspace through the cisco VPN client it might also be that the remote part (the VPN concentrator) gets congested and drops your connection but than other employees would complain as well (can be checked with your ICT guys).
The thing is: when you lose Internet connection on your laptop while surfing a web site and connection comes back again within no time you won't notice anything. If the same happens to a system constantly receiving encrypted packets and some are missing the VPN client will drop the connection. Completely different protocols (http/ipsec) that are differently prone to packet drops...

Network connection drops every 15 mins

Hi all,
i'm loosing network access on my iMac. This has started tonight, I had never had any problem before. My iMac is connected through Ethernet interface to a switch, then access to a router and finally to the modem cable. I have several other computers on this home network, all of them working properly and accessing to Internet without any problem.
Only the iMac is behaving strangely, and only since a few hours.
When the problem occurs, everything seems normal : LEDs are on on the switch, ifconfig -a gives a normal report (interface up, IP address ok within network range (no APIPA), netstat -rn OK), and i have no entry in system. log or whatsoever. But I can't nervertheless access to any Internet site, nor can I even ping my defaut router.
I began to "solve" the problem by rebooting the mac, then found that, when the problem occurs, I can solve it by going to Network preferences, advanced options, TCP/IP tab and press the "renew DHCP lease". Then everything works fine for 15 minutes, and I have to renew this operation.
The strange thing is that I used the iMac this morning and it was working fine. When I switched it on again tonight, the problem appeared .... Nothing changed, execpt one thing (but I can't find any connection) : the World of Warcraft laucher has been updated this morning ! But I can not imagine that this might generate trouble on the TCP/IP stack of Mac OS X !!!!
When the network connection is lost, all traffic is stopped, not only HTTP. If I'm for example playing WoW, I loose the connection to the game servers. Renewing the DHCP lease fixes the problem if done quickly enough.
I know I never had this problem before, as I'm connected to WoW almost every day and could so far play without any problem for (sometimes) hours.
I've seen some posts describing more or less the same behavior, but no answers so far. Surprisingly, many of them reports problems occuring every 15 mins.
Any idea ?
Thanks.

Hello,
I've found a workaround : I've switched my TCP/IP config to static IP address and everything is working fine so far.
Hope this helps.

ISE Guest wired access VLAN Flip

My guest access through ISE is working find except I can't get it to flip the VLAN and move the guest PC to the guest VLAN. I have the Guest VLAN ID in the authorization policy. Can someone point me in the right direction with this?
Thanks,
D

Hi
Are you able to get mapped the right policy? Also is change of authorizatoin (COA occuring) you should see in the monitoring logs an entry where dynamic authorization succeed message?
I would check the ssid advanced settings to see if AAA Overide and Radius NAC are enabled. In settings page in ISE (under administration > settings > profiling) see if the COA has been set to "reauth"...something other than "not enabled".
If you are having issues pullling a new ip address then check the operation tab in the guest portal configuration.
Thanks,

Why does the connection drop every other second when streaming from iplayer through safari to apple tv?

I am trying to listen to iplayer radio through apple TV from my macbook air. When I switch back to just using the macbook the stream is consistent and works well but when I switch to airplay mode the sound stream literally drops in and out every other second. Ha! I have just gone into iTunes and I have the same issue!?
I have checked for software updates on both apple devices and restarted my router but still I have the same issue.
This is really annoying as this is the main reason I got apple TV! Can anyone help??

This may sound stupid, but I'm gonna throw it out there anyway. Is it possible, that if I have enough junk on my desktop it might disrupt the signal? It seems odd, but it kind of looks like my signal is strong and relatively steady now that I've cleaned my desktop. I do tend to get very cluttered. I use a lot of reference images and save text clippings to use later... it just piles up very quickly.
So, I wonder if all that extra effort my system has to do keeping up with the junk might have something to do with the drop outs?

Guest-wired access connections drop every 1- 2 minutes
