Hello joe2616,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
To troubleshoot this issue where your Wi-Fi network is dropping, please follow the directions outlined below.
Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly
Your Mac may not not stay connected to your Wi-Fi network reliably.
Your Mac may stop accessing the Internet during use.
Solution
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.

Wireless Connection drops after a few moments

Hello everbody!
Background: I have a cheap laptop with a windows only ACPI module, so I have to set acpi=off at all times anyway. I tried Ubuntu, which has the wireless problem too, but instead of repairing something bloated like Ubuntu, I now found my way to Arch to make it right from the beginning.
If the wireless problem gets solved, I want to go on installing the nvdia driver, maybe configure xmonad. (I want to try KDE4 for fun too though, eyecandy you know ) Simple working desktop without getting my laptop heated up like windows does.
The problem: I set up my wireless connection like the wiki says:
-The original SSID was "FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7270 Annex A" which I tried to escape with \ and using 'ssid'. This wouldn't work at all, if you have any explanation for that I'd love to know it. I changed the SSID to something without spaces and special characters and the connection would work. But it would be nice to change it back to the original.
-So it works now. Fine, I thought. But the connection drops after a few moments and I have to "killall wpa_supplicant dhcpcd" and start them again to make it work again. For a few moments only. So I went through the logfiles and found error messages which Google wouldn't help me solve on my own. Now I'm asking the Arch specialists here
Note: Using the partedmagic livecd, the wireless connection works out of the box and absolutely stable. I believe even a bit faster than under windows. So it has to work perfectly, I just don't know how to make it in Arch yet.

Thanks in advance to anyone helping me! I really really want to get Arch going. It's ideal for this laptop, no wasting of disk space, ressource friendly, the temperature doesn't go up as much with less cpu usage I guess..
I've written quite a bit, but hopefully this makes it easier for you to help me! I've included all I thought which could be useful.

The easiest solution might be to setup NetCfg somehow with your wifi card and access point. Have you tried that? Can you find your card's chipset on the wiki?(chances are that your particular chipset will need a firmware put into /lib/firmware. Again that's found on the wiki on the NetCfg or Wifi page, I forget which sorry.) Those are two places where I'd look for good information.
By the way, your rc.conf is way out of date. You should look at updating it by using the recent rc.conf.pacnew file that you'll find in the /etc directory.

I have serious problems with I OS 6 - I am loosing internet connection after a few seconds or minutes. What can I do? Can I come back IO S 5.1.1.?

I am experiencing serious problems after downloading iOS 6. I am loosing my connection after a few seconds/minutes. What can I do? Can you come back to 5.1.1.? How can I do that?

You can't downgrade the iOS.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
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.

Airplay losses connection after a few seconds

When using my Iphone 4s connecting to apple tvm I lose connection after a few seconds.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

IMac keeps on loosing internet connection after a few minutes...

Intel dual core iMac with 10.6.8 OS keeps losing internet connection after a few minutes. Need to put it to sleep and bring it up again. Than it works again...for a few minutes. Other equipment like laptops and iPad using same wifi internet connection and have no connectivity problem at all... What to do?

Then what I suggest that you do is go to the Finder and select Mac Help in the Help menu. In Mac Help go to Index>C>Connect to the Internet. There you can read all about configuring your Mac, using a modem, etc. After you better understand how all that works then come back with your questions.

I am running FieldPoint Explorer version 3.0.1 and LabView 6.1 from Windows XP Professional. I set it up, and everything runs fine for 4 hours or more. I do not have the network watchdog enabled, and the FP1600 is in constant communication with the host computer in any case. Sometime in the middle of the night the communication is lost. The FP1600 link light
is on, and it is still receiving packets, but it will not respond to a ping or any other communications. Only a power cycle brings it back. The FP1600 is sitting right next to the host computer, both attached to the same network switch. There is no interruptio
n of network services to the two.

Hi Heinz,
We are also trying to troubleshoot this same problem (Intermitten network connection loss with FP1600 Ethernet Module - Error code "33163", Error Message - "FP1600 Connection to module has been lost."). We have checked other possible causes for this sort of behaviour. Including independent assessment of netowork availability at the time of error reporting, connecting dedicated power supply to the FP1600 module, temperature of cabinet housing the module (which is between 10 and 50 deg C), disconnecting sensors connected to various I/O modules connected to this module, increasing duration of parameter "time out" (the time module will wait before reporting an error if it can not access network). However, none of the above resolved the intermittent and random network loss errors.
The MAX version is 3.0.2, and the firmware on the module is 4.17, Labview version is 7.0 and the Operating System is windows NT.
I was wondering is there any information about this problem from any user or NI recently. The only solution looking in to this discussion forum seems to be replacing the module.

Bridge loses connection after a few minutes

Hi at all,
my name is Daniel and i have a problem with two AIR-SAP1532E-E-K9 with the software version 15.2(4)JB3b.
The situation: Our customer want to connect two buildings with a wireless bridge, so he bought two 1532 with two AIR-ANT5114P2M-N= antennas.
Over the wireless connection should go traffic from different VLANs.
The root bridge is configured as follows:
dot11 ssid [SSID]
   vlan 212
   authentication open
   authentication key-management wpa
   infrastructure-ssid
   wpa-psk ascii 7 [KEY]
interface Dot11Radio1
no ip address
no ip route-cache
encryption vlan 212 mode ciphers aes-ccm
ssid [SSID]
antenna gain 14
peakdetect
no dfs band block
power local 15
packet retries 64 drop-packet
channel dfs
station-role root bridge
interface Dot11Radio1.204
encapsulation dot1Q 204
no ip route-cache
logging event subif-link-status
bridge-group 2
bridge-group 2 spanning-disabled
interface Dot11Radio1.212
encapsulation dot1Q 212 native
no ip route-cache
logging event subif-link-status
bridge-group 1
bridge-group 1 spanning-disabled
interface Dot11Radio1.463
encapsulation dot1Q 463
no ip route-cache
logging event subif-link-status
bridge-group 3
bridge-group 3 spanning-disabled
The GigabitEthernet is configured like the dot11radio 1 with the Sub interfaces for each VLAN.
The non-root bridge is configured as follows:
dot11 ssid [SSID]
   vlan 212
   authentication open
   authentication key-management wpa
   infrastructure-ssid
   wpa-psk ascii 7 [Key]
interface Dot11Radio1
no ip address
no ip route-cache
encryption vlan 212 mode ciphers aes-ccm
ssid [SSID]
antenna gain 14
peakdetect
power local 11
packet retries 64 drop-packet
station-role non-root bridge
interface Dot11Radio1.204
encapsulation dot1Q 204
no ip route-cache
logging event subif-link-status
bridge-group 2
bridge-group 2 spanning-disabled
interface Dot11Radio1.212
encapsulation dot1Q 212 native
no ip route-cache
logging event subif-link-status
bridge-group 1
bridge-group 1 spanning-disabled
The GigabitEthernet is configured like the dot11radio 1 with one subinterface for each VLAN.
At the moment the non-root bridge connects to the root. All is fine and each subinterface comes up. After 3-4 minutes the non-root logs the message that there is no response from the root and shut down the interfaces and after a short moment the non-root connect to the root again.
The root shows with the command sh dot11 associations:
802.11 Client Stations on Dot11Radio1:
SSID [SSID] :
MAC Address    IP address      IPV6 address                           Device        Name            Parent         State

189c.5d7d.f570 10.93.212.225   ::                                     bridge        BR-Archiv-Neu01 self           Assoc
And some logging from the non root:

So it looks like the root bridge shuts the interfaces and then activate them after a short time.
What i want to do next is to upgrade the software version and to set the channel of the 5 GHz interface manually.
I hope somebady have another idea and would share it with us.
regards
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
Thanks for your brief explanation, the configuration looks good and from the logs I see that the radios are going up and down.
Kindly, make sure that the antennas are installed and mounted in the right direction.
Change the channels manually, you are using Radio 1 for bridging make sure there is enough coverage to cover Radio 1.
You can also test with Radio 0 for bridging and i also understand that there are some of the known issues with the version you are running for bridging and WGB connectivity.
Once after doing all these tests it's good for you to upgrade the APs to 15.2(4)JB5 and above.

Losing connection after a few seconds

Hi all,
My network connection drops after a few seconds from restarting network (with /etc/rc.d/network restart). This has started happening a few days ago and I don't remember doing anything out of ordinary. Conky still reports some (very little) network traffic (4.0kb down, 0.1kb up, around that), but no browser works, and even ping doesn't work. Can anybody point me to the right direction?
Thank you

The right direction would be posting more info and checking some chardware is applicable: are you using wired or wireless, if wired, check the cable, restart the router if you're using one, are you using dhcpcd or some other app etc. etc.

Datasocket Server looses connections after a few hours "Parsing URL"

Hi there,
I need some help cause the DataSocket server is doing some bad stuff...!
The server runs on a WinNT 4.0 platform as a datalogger. It works fine, but after a few hours it seems the server looses connection somehow, the datasocket status of the frontpanel elements tells: "Connecting: Parsing URL" .
The server has about 5 DINT variables and about 3 clusters containing INT variables (size about 30).
I really ran out of ideas aof what happens on this "old" machine, maybe someone had some preblems like me and solved them....
Thank for hints and tipps!

Hello,
what service packs for Windows NT have you installed?
Datasocket server crashes after a short period of time when diagnostic
window is open (Tools->Diagnostics). Disable the "Auto-Refresh"
option in the Diagnostic Dialog from the Options menu.

HT1695 My phone will not connect to my home network. I keep getting a window that says "Unable to join the network"

I received a replacement phone from the Apple Store and since I brought my phone home I can not get it to connect to my network. I've reset the iPhone and reset my home network. Any suggestions?

Hello AriJR,
Thanks for the question, that definitely sounds frustrating. Are you able to isolate the issue further (i.e. does the iPhone connect to other good-known Wi-Fi networks?)
I would recommend following the Wi-Fi troubleshooting assistant here:
Apple - Support - iPhone - Join a network Assistant

For more detailed information/troubleshooting steps, see this resource:

Brand New Macbook loses connection after a few seconds causing my other products using wifi (android & iPad) to lose connection too. Very Frustrating

- Mac book is 3 days old
- The Mac book would connect for about 10 seconds with the WiFi then it would disconnect
- A prompt which states that another device is using the IP address which is in conflict with his Mac book
- Both the iPad and Android Phone lose internet connection when the Mac book attempts to access the WiFi signal of the DSL-2642B
Am really confused on why it hasnt been connecting, will connect to internet on my android phone and girlfirends iphones WiFi hotspots when i activate them but as i said the Macbook may connect to my router for a few seconds once i have unplugged and replugged my router but drops out and causes my other devices to drop out. The other Devices (Ipad and Android Phone) will connect and stay connected to my router only until i try to connect the macbook, prompting all devices to drop out.
Any help here would be GREATLY appreciated

Find a location with a faster Internet connection. The slow connection message is telling you you have a slow connection or one that's too busy.

When i try and sync apple tiv and itunes it crashes my wifi connection after a few minutes - why is this and how can i overcome this please?

when i try and sync my itunes with my apple tv (1st gen) it crashes my wi-fi connection. please can anyone help on this? I do remember it saying at some point that something shared the same IP address with something else .... but i am rather clueless. Both me and my husband have macs, iphones and apple tv - but it is my itunes account that the apple tv uses if that is any help.

Here's the solution for the T-string error.

TS4585 My phone will not turn on and when it does, it only stays on for a few minutes. The last time it said it was necessary to do a restore in itunes, but shut off again before i could read rest of warning

My phone was working fine last night. Plugged it into the charger and went to bed. Woke up this am to it off. It would not turn on. I tried a different charger and a different outlet. Tried several times to hold down power and volume and or the menu button. Finally, several hours later, holding the power and volume buttoon turned on the phone. Said had 1%battery, so i kept it plugged in for about 5 min. It went up to 2%. I started to look at recieved text, then it went dead again. Repeated the same steps and left it plugged in. It kept turning off. till finally, it went dim and a warning message came on to restore phone from itunes but idid not see the end of warning bc it shut off again. Now it will not turn on, but has the white apple symbol turning off and on over and over. I can not find the option to restore the phone, plus the phone is not on so the computer is not registering that its plugged in. I can not call out bc no landline and can not call tech support. Does anyone know why this is, or what to do?????????????

Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.
