Homehub 3 - wifi dropping only when PC on

Over the past week when my PC is on (connected to HH3 via Ethernet cable), the devices in the house which connect via wifi (an ipad an 2 iphones) seem to keep dropping wifi connectivety.
When the PC is off though , the devices keep hold of the wifi connection and work fine.
Internet speed on PC is fine, and wifi on iOs devices is fine too (when they can connect).
It is odd as we have had the Hub over 3 years, and nothing has changed
Any ideas - maybe a power cycle or reset, or maybe a new Hub?

This sounds like the DHCP bug in the HH3

IPhone 4S Wifi drops randomly when in use

Today I got a message that I would be billed $15 because I passed my data limit. I'm on AT&T and I got no prior notice. No 65% notice, no 90% notice. Just one saying that I passed the 200mb mark. I guess that means I passed it in one sitting, likely because my phone switched from wifi to 4g when wifi was still in range. I know it automatically does this while asleep, but for me this is happening while using the phone, without warning and reason. Not only is $15 bucks a lot to pay, but really, I've been having this problem a lot and now that it's actually costing me money, there needs to be a hotfix. Either Youtube, the app that I've noticed this the most in has to fix it, or Apple does.
Note: I'm not going to turn off Cellular Data. Not only is it inconvenient to have to turn it off every time I transition from 4g to Wifi, but in the case that I lose my phone, I won't be able to use Find My iPhone. (When asleep, it will disconnect from Wifi, and without 4g Find my i doesn't work.)

this solution did not work for me. (I already had Ask for Connection disabled) -- any other ideas?
this has become particularly relevant as of late with ATT now trying to push Unlimited data plan users into switching plans with "speed caps" after 3gb of usage in a billing cycle.
It rolls out next month and there is apparently no other option other than switching plans; so after 3gb is used, the speed for those of us on the old Unlimited plans will be "reduced" for the rest of the billing cycle. The language is very sketchy and unclear, especially how they are even allowed to suddenly do this when we have contracts. When I called I was only given tips on how to keep my data usage under 3gb for as much of the month as possible. I was told I was contracted to unlimited "use", not unlimited "speed".
thus, why I'm trying to stay on WiFi as much as possible, when at work or home.
tl;dr but wanted to both ask for more info and provide some for anyone else out there who was grandfathered in with an Unlimited data plan from days of yore.

MBP retina: wifi drops out when screen goes dark

Hi there,
I've got a MBPr 15inch with the latest OSX version (incl. updates).
When my screen goes dark after 10 minutes of inactivity, my WIFI connection *always* drops out. So if I'm syncing something over Dropbox for instance, it will stop working. I basically have to make sure my laptop never goes inactive for too long. This is really annoying and one of a few other problems I'm having with this MBPr.
I've searched these forums, and there are people with similar or related problems but I couldn't find any solution yet.
Anyone else out there similar problems?
Thanks,
Kai

Hi f, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
It sounds like it could be a bad inverter board, but I don't know if that would cause it to happen only while using the power adapter. Depending on your exact model, it could be:

Sound drops only when using one Airtunes speaker

Hello,
When i connect to one Airport Express with Itunes, the sound drops every 3 seconds. But when i connect to multiple Airtunes speakers or one Airtunes speaker plus the pc speaker everything works fine.
-Both Airport Express stations are connected via a wireless router trough the ethernet port and have the wireless disabled. (pc --[wireless]-> Router --[ethernet]-> Airport1 & Airport2)
-i've used different settings buffer sizes.
I've searched the discussion but found nothing about the same problem. Can someone help me with this issue?
Thanks

well, what'd you do to fix it? was it a bad headphones cable/jack or just not plugged in all the way?

Iphone wifi dropping connection when locked

all in the title but, when locked it forgets the wi-fi password, and so i have to re enter it.

belkin wireless n router with wpa passphrase.

Are you hiding your network identification (SSID)? If you are doing that, it is a pretty common complaint. In either case, the fix is about the same:
Fix 1
When you are connected to your network, tap Settings > WiFi > and then tap the blue ">" next to the network name with the check mark.
The next screen will give you your connection information. Scroll until you find "Forget this Network" and tap that.
That should return you to the Settings > WiFi page. Tap Other, and then re-enter your network name, security, and network password.
Fix 2
tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Your Network Settings
When the iPhone restarts, tap Settings > WiFi > Other and re-enter your network name, security, and network password.
Fix 3 - if all else fails
Reboot your router (uun plug it from it's power source).

Wifi Drop-out when iMac wakes from sleep

My iMac does not connect when waking from sleep. I have to turn the airport off and on every time. Its been doing it since last October when i installed Lion. I had hoped it would be fixed with an update but no such luck. I have seen similar posts but no suggestions to fix it. Anyone have any ideas?

Searching the web for "appcode.hex" the first item that I found was for something related to an Olevia TV.
A .exe file is a Windows file and will not run under Mac OS X.

Does your Wifi drop when your iPad mini went into sleep mode after upgrading to iOS 7?

Dear iPad mini users, to those who have upgraded to iOS 7 like I did, do you experienced WiFi drop when your iPad is in sleeping mode? I noticed this problem only few days after upgrading my iOS. Initially I don't think there is such issue. After your iPad mini recover fom sleep mode, then it will automatically connect to WiFi again. My point is it no longer connected to WiFi in sleeping mode and so could not keep me up-to-date with my mail if I am on WiFi.
Do share your view and if there is a solution, do share with me please. I have tried almost all solutions available online but no no avail. At the moment, I am activating my 3G network so that when mail came in, my iPad will notify me even during its sleeping mode but this is getting expensive considering I am using the 3G 24 hours every day now.

I found an solution. Go to Settings/Mail, Contact, Calendar/Fetch new data and than enable Push and choose to fetch hourly or every 30 minutes. In this case your iPad will stay connected to wifi even when smart cover is closed. If you select Manualy than wifi connection will be terminated when in sleep mode.

I updated my LG G3 this week and now it SUCKS! When I'm connected to WIFI, nothing on Facebook works. The photos and videos won't populate. I have to turn off the WIFI and only use the mobile data. Not to mention, I really hate the way it looks now.

I'm thinking of changing providers now.

Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- 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.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I own the movies and I want them to stay in my iTunes library basically forever.
But in both cases the file name no longer shows in the movie list, so I don't know how to re-download it from the Cloud.
iTunes prefs > Store > Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.
This will show all your iTunes purchases in your library with a cloud icon down arrow. Click the icon to redownload or click on Play to stream without downloading.
Also see this , -> Download past purchases
and techncially, you don't "own" the movie, You simply have a license to use it.
Yet the first thing iTunes does when you hit the delete key is tell you that it will remove the movie forever from all devices and the library.
Actually, no it does not tell you that.
FYI: You should keep copies of all yoru iTnue spurahses as the labels/movie studios/copyright owners can pull their product at anytime and it won't be available to redownload.
