HomeHUb 4 dropping Internet for 1 - 2 mins intermi...

Having a problem at peak times where internet drops put for a couple of minutes at a time, seemingly only at peak times, saturday night, last night about 2130 after the chapions league games finished.
Its on a standard bt line 16mb bb. Homehub 4. The connecition to homehub does not drop, only the internet connection.
Any help appreciated 
Thanks

you can try downloading inssider3 (istumbler if MAC) and then run it. This will show the broadcasting networks round about you and their channels including your own. If you then enter your router and change your wireless channel to a free or less congested channel.
you may find moving from automatic to a manually selected channnel helps especially if there are other networks on the popular 1 ,6 and 11 channels

  • Airport issue.. drops down for every 5 min (Approximately)

    im using a wireless network to connect to internet..
    router is working fine..around every 5 min the strenghts go down to zero.. if i switch off the airport and switch it on again.. the bar shows full strength.. which confirms that there is no problem with the router..
    so for every 5 min.. i restarting the airport.. what would be the problem?

    Sorry, can't help you with this, but there are numerous threads regarding this issue with a variety of suggestions on how it may be addressed. You might give a few of those a try and see if any works, although it'll most likely be a shot in the dark. Mine has had this problem since the evening of the day I bought it in January and no fix has worked yet. I went back to the 1990s and wired ethernet. It's an issue which Apple has to know about, but has not resolved.

  • Dropped Internet Connection on Mac Mini

    I have a new Mac Mini and it's connects to the internet via Wifi with no issues and the internet works fine. After it's been connected for awhile I'll pull up Safari and it won't load a page but shows that it's connected. If I disable the Wifi and re enable it, it'll pull up the webpage with no problem. All other devices connect and hold the connection but the Mini including Win 7 systems and Android devices. Any Ideas? Thanks.

    You're doing quite well for new to Macs!
    Apple really doesn't seem to have this Airport/Wifi thing as well in hand as I think they should.
    Tough to tell, especially in higher OSX versions as everything is far more removed & more steps, but se if you can adapt these older steps, they're basically the same, but with little aggravating additional steps...
    The Interface that connects to the Internet, needs to be drug to the top of System Preferences>Network>Show:>Network Port Configurations and checked ON.
    10.5.x/10.6.x/10.7.x instructions...
    System Preferences>Network, click on the little gear at the bottom next to the + & - icons, (unlock lock first if locked), choose Set Service Order.
    The interface that connects to the Internet should be dragged to the top of the list.
    Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), & use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, reboot once more.
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.
    Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over.

  • I have a BT HomeHub 5 and internet on my Mac mini airport is slow. do I need a wireless add-on or booster?

    I have BT Home Hub 5 but the wireless reception for my MacMini is slow. It is in a separate room. Is there an Apple wireless booster or should I have Airport Extreme?

    First you need to determine what, if anything, is the problem. The Apple Apps store lists a number of Wifi network ananlyzer tools for little or no cost. WiFi Explorer provides a great deal of information including maximum data rate, band width, signal strength and signal to noise ratio. These four numbers provide the essential information about your WiFi network and the signal reaching your computer. You will also see if there are any other networks in your vicinity that are competing on the same network bands. Another factor is the speed of the internet reaching your location. There are any number of online services that will give you those numbers with a reasonable degree of accuracy. I generally use the speed test on WhatIsMyIP for no other reason than the URL is easy to remember. It is also important to check with your ISP to find out what network speed you are paying for.
    So once you know what speed you are paying for and what speed you are receiving then you are becoming equipped to figure out what, if anything, is your speed problem. Get some data and report it back here and some user will be glad to help you maximize what you got. Hopefully without spending much, or hopefully any, money.

  • I am owning an Iphone 5 for a year now. Its battery problem is giving a lot of headache to me daily ! If I use internet for over 10 minutes continuously or play any game for 10 minutes, the battery is dropping by 15-30%.Please help me !

    Whenever I am browsing the internet or playing a game, the battery is dropping by 15-30 % daily. I am able to use only 70 percent of the fully charged Iphone battery in this way. ! It is very frustrating with this kind of thing from Apple. Can any body please help me out ! I love iPhone but this prolonged problem is giving me a lot of headache ! Any hellp will be appreciated. 

    How long are you using internet for? Are you using WiFi or mobile data? Are you watching video on websites? There are many variables that could explain a perfectly natural battery drain. As I said previously you should try recalibrating the battery. My phone used to drain by mid-afternoon with little to no use until I found out about recalibrating. Since then its been fine and its something I do at least once a month.

  • Acouple of days ago I kept losing connectivity with the internet.By resetting either my modem or Airport Extreme I could regain it for 10-30 min. when I would have to repeat the resetting.Since with Apple

    A couple of days ago I kept losing connectivity with the internet.By resetting either my modem or Airport Extreme I could regain it for 10-30 min. when I would have to repeat the resetting.Since,with Apple & Apple store support & many hours of contact with them the problem keeps recurring

    Edge has very clear restrictions, one being that you must have 6 months of clean payment history which you don't. Either wait until April 14, or good luck at Sprint.
    I am unsure how it can be determined the payment mix up was the fault of CS, but regardless, the mix up was done. There can be any number of reasons why a payment could be missed without any fault on your part, however you are still the responsible party for the account and must live with the repercussions.

  • Hi i have been surfing internet for some SAP ABAP mini projects

    Hi i have been surfing internet for some SAP ABAP mini projects . I am learning SAP ABAP and want to implement the learnt knowledge in creating small project. Can someone suggest small mini project  that a fresher can do, or any websites where i can practise until i get job.
    Thanks in advance,
    Tilak Raja .

    Seems like a noble pursuit... There are at least a few "spec dumps" or "do my job" questions (usually start with "my requirements are...") posted in this same forum daily, so if you get to them before the moderators do - there are a bunch of projects for you.
    I'm a bit confused about the "web sites" part though - so you don't have an access to some demo/IDES system? How are you planning to do those mini projects then? Unfortunately SAP is not something one could easily practice in isolation - you'll need basic configuration, business data, etc.

  • Macbook keeps dropping internet connection but other devices are fine???

    I work from home & this is making me completely insane. My MacBook will drop the wifi connection constantly, I will be doing things just fine & the all of a sudden I will not be able to load something & any tab/page I have open will be "spiraling" or loading and get frozen up. My gmail contact list will all go to offline and I get a message that gmail lost connectivity.  The bars on the top right of my monitor showing wireless connection will always be there (usually all 5 are dark), and it will say (both under that icon & in System Preferences-Network) that I am connected to my airport extreme.  Sometimes my Skype icon at the top will stay green & logged in, but most of the time it goes grey/offline as well.  I lose connectivity for anywhere from 2 min to 15 min 5-6 times a day (and that is just when I'm on the computer, I'm not on it all day) and then it just spontaneously comes back again. 
    My husband has a MacBook also & will have no problems even when I am having problems, and my ipad will get on our wifi no problem at the same time, so I know it is not the router/modem.  This computer has been giving me trouble for months, with slow connections previously and then not being able to connect to wifi at my mother's house and then in an apartment we were living in temporarily, but I thought once I was back on my own Airport it would be ok and now it is worse. Firefox doesn't work either, so it is not Safari, although I use Safari primarily & it starts in there (and I got to Firefox to double check & see if I can get online in there which I can't).
    I went to the Genius Bar the other day & was beyond frustrated, as the guy 'pinged' google 100 times with no problems, checked settings, ran some diagnostic & visited a few websites, told me nothing was wrong, he didn't know what to tell me and just looked at me like I was crazy, then started messing around on his ipad and ignoring me. When I asked if maybe my computer got infected or corrupted by something he again just stared at me and said there is no known virus for the Mac OS. He gave me NO advice, nothing to look for diagnostially when it occurs again so I feel like I'm at a total loss here. Please help.
    On a side note, in the last week or two Safari is also now not saving any of my cookies/passwords/logins for more than a day or two and I have not changed a single setting. Plus I set up gmail 2 step verification b/c I got a notice that my acct had been accessed from another state (I changed password, etc) and it is supposed to remember my computer for 30 days but I have to get the text sent with a new verification code like every other day because it is not remembering me, which is very annoying.
    Could these issues all be connected????

    Hi Lisa,
    Seems we have a similar problem and it is driving me nuts.
    I don't have the password problem, but my connection drops out for 2 minutes and over.
    If you bring up the diagnostics window from the prompt on the Safari page, when pages won't load again, it will tell you that everything up to the last 2 options is fine.
    I've had the problem ever since I upgraded to the last MacOs, might have been for over a year now.
    Since a couple of weeks I actually found that when no page is loading at all, go to the search field in the top bar of Safari. (my default is Google) it will actually bring up the Google page, then open just any other page and usually that will let you continue to browse the internet untill it plays up again.
    I know it is very annoying but untill a fix or a solution this will have to be the way for me to work around it.
    Finding the time to reinstall Lion is probably the best option.
    Hopefully someone else does have a better solution for the time being.

  • I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on my MacBook. Constantly dropping internet connection or message "error connecting to the network" comes up. No wireless connectivity issues with windows 7 laptop or iphone.

    I have a MacBook with Snow Leopard 10.6.8. The last few weeks it has been constantly dropping internet connection, and one of these messages appear on the page: "Safari cannot open this page because the server where this page is located isn't responding" or "Safari cannot open this page because you are not connected to the internet" comes up. I will check Wifi and I am connected. No wifi connectivity issues with iphone or windows 7 laptop, this doesn't happen with either of those devices. I have unplugged and reset router, cleared cache, still happening. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

  • Extreme Base Station suddenly dropping internet connection

    I have an Extreme Base Station (802.11n Fast Ethernet) which has been providing wireless internet and printing to two imacs pretty flawlessly for several years. It seems to be a fairly simple network. DSL modem (to WAN port) and USB printer cable plugged into back of Base Station.
    Several days ago, the Base Station began dropping connection to the internet every few minutes. If I connect the modem directly into the computer, I have no problems with losing connection. So, I began looking for solutions online and have been trying everything I could find to do. I've scoured the forums here, and everywhere and read a bazillion posts.
    I've done a hard reset of the Base Station, I've tried different channels, I've unplugged, waited ten minutes, and replugged in a myriad of sequences, including unplugging both the modem (Zhone/Paradyne 6381-A3) and Base Station overnight. The only thing I haven't done is roll back the firmware (currently 7.4.2 I believe). I'm still experiencing the same problems and am at my wits end. I've spent hours now trying to fix it and need to do other things like shop for groceries and vacuum! So, I'm posting, in hopes someone might be able to point me in a more productive direction.
    Is it possible the Base Station hardware is failing? What are the signs and symptoms? I hate to spend another $179 and still have the same problems.
    Thank you.
    Most kindly,
    ---Susan

    Dear Bluenova - ( +or other interested readers+ )
    I know that this reply is two months since this topic was initially posted.
    This is a longstanding Airport Extreme ( AEBS ) problem that's been noted since 2006-2007.
    It has been an ongoing issue for me -AND- I continue to experience it even after recently upgrading my AEBS.
    I finally called AppleCare in mid-Sept. and opened a formal problem case report.
    As of today (Oct 15, 2010) I still have an open & unresolved case with AppleCare.
    The problem has been escalated twice -and- is now referred to Engineering Dept for research & resolution.
    I was curious what steps or actions you have taken -and/or- if you still experience the problem.
    _Readers Please Note_
    Many users have posted messages regarding problems with Airport Extreme *+DROPPING CONNECTIONS+* .
    However, with careful reading, it becomes obvious that many forum posters are not sufficiently clear
    -and- often confuse or do NOT make the distinction between ..... DIFFERENT TYPES OF CONNECTION PROBLEMS.

    If you suspect that you are having the *dropped internet connection* type problem,
    YOU CAN CHECK & WATCH IT HAPPENING IN THIS MANNER
    Set Airport in Menubar to *"SHOW TIME CONNECTED"*
    . *- +and also+ -*
    Open Airport Utility --> AIRPORT --> SUMMARY window
    .... and leave it visible somewhere on your screen while you web browse.
    Now, once the internet connection drops or is lost ...
    ... in the Airport Utility Summary window - you will see the loss of the assigned IP Address
    . *- and -*
    .... in the Menubar - the time connected will reset to 00:00:00
    If you have a new or ongoing problem that relates specifically to ....
    .... Airport Extreme – dropping or losing *Internet Connections* ... ( +not wifi connection type probs+ )
    .... please let me know.
    I would like to be able to correspond directly with others via email to share info
    (such as what modems, ISP's, time of day or conditions with which this problem has been found to occur)
    I will then be glad to pass that info on to AppleCare in trying to find a cause (and solution) for this problem.
    If this issue was treated collectively maybe AppleCare would address it with more resolve & urgency.
    I'll check back with this thread for replies from other interested users.

  • Re: How to keep phone #on prepaid plan if u drop service for 2 months, then resume?

    Re: How to keep phone number on prepaid plan if you drop service for 1-2 months and then resume?
    Thanks for the replies !
    I pasted in the link to the discussion I started earlier.  Dont see a way to respond to replies.  If there is a way to do this, would love to know pls!
    I may want to drop the monthly service for 2 months or more. So the offer to reserve a number for $100 is actually more appealing than paying 49 monthly for more than 2 months.  I just cant find a way to pay it that doesnt get lost in monthly payments
    I have tried the cust service number for pre paid.  It's menu driven, no option at all to speak with anyone, and no option that matches my question.  It's nothing more than a set of text that is accessed by the telephone.  One way communication, no chance to get any help :-(  Disappointing.  And Chat is still busy :-(
    Thanks for reading and any tips!

  • Music and sounds folders not appearing under "music and sounds" tab for approx 5 min after launch

    So every time I launch fcpx, under the "music and sounds" tab, all that is appearing is my iTunes folder, with the other folders (iLife sounds, FCP sound effects, etc) not appearing for about 5 min or so...anyone else experiencing this? Is there a fix?

    Nothing ever shows up under the "Music and Sounds" tab for me. I can wait an hour and nothing "appears." The dropdown menu is blank and can never be used to select anything: It remains blank.
    I've deleted preferences, rebooted, logged-in as a different user and reinstalled the application. None of that has made the "Music and Sound" section work.
    If I drag a folder to the top area (after pulling down the gray bar) the icon changes to show a green plus sign and the top area is outlined with green. After dropping the folder nothing happens; it does not appear in the list. I've tried several different folders from iTunes and other locations, all to no avail.
