HT202663 wifi gets disconnected

internet through wifi gets disconnected thus interupting the net connection.

Hello jejaab,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Wi-Fi: How to troubleshoot Wi-Fi connectivity

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.
Have a nice day,
Mario

  • Need help - wifi gets disconnected when it goes to sleep mode - iOS 6, iPhone 5, WPA Enterprise

    Hi, I have read a lot of discussions regarding wifi gets disconnected when it goes to sleep mode on iOS 6, mainly on iPhone 5.
    Here is my configuration and it just keeps disconnecting wifi connection once it goes to sleep mode
    iOS 6
    iPhone 5 white
    Purchased on Nov 3
    Work wifi config: WPA Enterprise
    I tried to manual add the wifi but it did not work. I tried all except for upgrade to iOS 6.0.1. I had a call to Apple Support and the guy told me I could not trust everything i read from here (well, how dare he is!!!). But I did all I could think of, and read from here.
    I am with ATT and I do not have a receiption at all at work. I have to turn it to airplane mode, and use the wifi connection. I put my iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0 side-by-side to compare. My iPhone with iOS 5.0 DOES NOT disconnect the wifi connection when it goes to sleep mode; but of course, we all know, iPhone 5 with iOS 6.0 does
    Any helps would be so much appreaticated. I am considering to return the phone to apple store, and cancel my 2 yrs extended contract with ATT. I might think to get another one once they have the issue fixed. It is no point to have an expensive paper-weight at work while I can't use the celluare nor wifi connection.
    Thanks again,

    Hi ChrisJ4203
    I have tested it at home wifi tonight. My phone and my wife's iphone (both iPhone 5 with iOS 6.0) do the same.
    With cellular data on (aka airplane mode OFF) with WIFI ON
    Wifi icon replaced by ATT's LTE icon once the phone was waken up from sleep mode; but within 2 secs, the wifi connection got reconnected again.
    With cellular data OFF (aka airplane mode ON) with WIFI ON
    WIFI icon disappeared from the top bar after both phones were waken up from sleep mode. It took a while to reconnect to the wifi network (more than 10 seconds).
    On a separate note, after i rebooted my phone, i can see it does "searching" the ATT's signal, then it shows "No Service", then next second, it shows ATT with full bars and LTE icon.
    My question is, i have never noticed the "No Service" showing up from my iPhone 4. The "No Service" shows up on my wife's phone too. When I first got her phone and was doing the installation, I had noticed the cell signal dropped from full bars to no service, then within few seconds, it went back up. I have not had time to test on her phone again, but it is something I will be monitoring for. I wonder if anyone has similar experience like this.
    anyhow, any feedback on how to fix the wifi got disconnected while in sleep mode would be very helpful.
    thanks,

  • Wifi gets disconnected after sometime while watching youtube on iPod Touch.

    When I'm watching video on youtube, the wifi network suddenly gets disconnected after some time.
    Even when I goto settings->wifi, I'm unable to find the wifi network.
    However, at the same time I can find the wifi network and am able to browse internet on my laptop and mobile phone. I get the wifi network back, on when I switch off wifi and switch it after some 2mins of time.

    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: 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 the router.
    - Reset networks settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - Does it happen with other networks?
    - Next would be to restore the iPod.

  • My iphone 5 does not remember the password of my home network. Well this is ot the case with my ipad. The wifi gets disconnected every 2 minutes. Its not any problem with my wifi router as my ipad and other devices work fine. So how do i fix this problem?

    Well my iphone 5 does not remember my home network. This is not a problem with the wifi router as the ipad works absolutely fine. The wifi loses it connection in just 2 minutes. So could you please fix this problem.

    Not unless the modem is causing a problem.
    What you want to do is get it to work reliably over Ethernet first, then tackle wifi. Power off the modem. On your macbook, delete the Ethernet configuration and the Wifi configuration. Power up the modem, then connect the mac via Ethernet. Create the new Ethernet configuration and see if you can connect.

  • Wifi gets disconnected when iMac is restored after sleep mode.

    Everytime my imac is restored from sleep mode I have to reconfigure my wifi settings, starting to become a pain.

    Do you know this as fact? For engineering to be working on it, they would have to admit they had a problem.
    In the meantime, I would simply disable sleep mode. It's not like an iMac really needs it.
    Also questionable. I've seen the electrolytics on the logic board "pop their tops" on an iMac that had sleep mode disabled.

  • My ipod touch 4g wifi randomly disconnects, any solution? my firmware is 4.3.1.

    Hi,
    I have an ipod 4th gen. It has firmware 4.3.1. I have a very annoying problem that my wifi gets disconnected randomly with no particular reason. The signal strength is excellent in my laptop. Also, when I see safari not responding, and then when I open settingh->wifi, after a few moment the ssid automatically appears and it shows connected, but as soon as I am away from this page and go to safari, it again disconnects. It is quite annoying, I searched the web forums and only saw people with problems with no solution. Will apple do something about their product.

    Even through you think it connects, I doubt that it has.  Tap Settings > WiFi > and then tap the blue ">" next to the network name with the check mark.  What you will see next is all of your connection information.
    If you are truly connected, your device will have an IP address, a full subnet mask, a router IP address and a couple of DNS addresses.  However, I think you will either have nothing or a device IP address that starts with 169.x.  What you are seeing is caused by your router, not your touch.
    Things that may cause this are old routers, old router firmware, WEP encryption, a router that hasn't been rebooted in a while, and so on.  You might want to check your router first  - is there a firmware upgrade available, have I actually ever shut the thing off, am I using WEP (change to WPA2 which is far more secure), etc.  Then try this:
    Reboot your router by unplugging it from the power source
    Reset the touch network settings - tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    When the touch restarts, tap Settings > WiFi > Other and re-enter your network name, security, and network password.

  • HT202639 Wifi keeps disconnecting

    Started few days ago, my iPhone 4s keeps disconnecting from wifi. It's on iOS 8.1.2 . Everytime I open an application that uses network, wifi gets disconnected. Such as App Store, Skype, Clash of Clans and all other app that uses network. After the disconnection, either it will reconnect to my wifi  or it won't connect until the next reboot. Sometimes, when I switch off the wifi toggle, my phone freezes and needs to force reboot in order for my phone to unfreeze. I think the reason that this happened is because my phone fell and hit the floor alot of times and might have damaged the phone inside or there is a software problem. Any solutions or real reason to this?

    I have the same issue.  What I've noticed is that when I connect to the network, it pops up one of those wifi authentication windows like I'm connecting from a hotel or something.  But this is connecting to "http://www.apple.com" and the only thing the window says is "SUCCESS".  I can't do anything.  When I hit cancel it disconnects from that network since it thinks I haven't authenticated.
    Where I work you can set up wifi accounts for guests, so I did that for myself and that worked because that popped up a real authentication page, but again all signs point back to a TEST page that apple has, so they seem to have left some beta code in here or something.
    Haven't tried on my home LAN yet...hope it works!

  • I have an ipad3(wifi  cellular). Now i want to upgrade my iOS5.1 to ios 7. But download speed in our country is too slow(100kbps). It can be disconnected anytime. Is there any problem if net connection get disconnected while upgrading ios? Please ans me.

    haha, so now i'm thinking. I'm learning the terminal as fast as i can but there are several lines of codes and commands in there that throws up red flags to me that i don't fully understand. It just looks fishy too me. It would be highly appreciated if someone could just check this out just to tell me that i don't need to worry about it. Or point me in the right direction. I just feel un easy about this. ha.

  • 13" MBP internet connection gets disconnected when too many wifi connection's available

    I just notice this a couple of nights ago... Im using a 13" MBP I bought last June 9.  At night, when there are plenty of wifi connections being broadcast in our condominium bldg, my internet connection is very slow.  Also, the signal strength is reduced to half.  Sometimes I even get disconnected and the MBP wifi has difficulty reconnecting my wifi.  But when morning comes, signal strength is at full.  I ask my friend who also connects to the same wifi if ever he has difficulty connecting at night, but unfortunately its just me.  He is using windows, by the way.  I'm wondering if this is a known issue and have a fix already? or it's just me?
    Please help... Thanks.

    I use my 15" MBP this way with no problems at all and I have Mountain Lion installed.  So we need to look elsewhere for the problem, it's not possible to link this to the OS without further investigation (but it could be a system setting).
    I  know that other folks are complaining that Mountain Lion broke WIFI.  But if that were the case we would all have problems.  I, along with many others, have no problems at all.  I think there is something else going on.
    What is the signal strength with the lid open vs. closed?
    When you say that Safari does not work, are you getting a timeout message or a message like "You are not connected to the Internet."?  Of course this is the English version of the message, yours will be different.

    There is something Definitely wrong with iOS 7 regarding DATA USAGE being logged to wireless carrier in for WIFI instead.
    I read all the previous replies and same issue.
    I rarely use my mac to sync....its all wifi sync for the last 2 years....never had this issue before... and i know it began with iOS7.... here is why....
    My iPhone was at home when I updated to iOS7 connected to wifi...but it logged Data Usage to Rogers Wireless (700MB approx)...data will never do an update over 50mb in app store (it gives the warning to use wifi) I play a lot of games and pay for them so I always update through App Store.  2 weeks later, simposons halloween update (650mb)...at home, using wifi.
    Rogers told me there was 700+mb data usage on the day of update and 650+mb data on oct 1.st (tapped out).
    Went over my 6GB plan and paid the fees.
    This has never happened before...It must come to apples attention by now...

  • Why does my iphone keep getting disconnected from Wifi?

    My laptop has no issue staying connected to my wifi, but my iphone 4 keeps getting disconnected. I connect to wifi then a few seconds later, it disconnects for some reason. My lapop doesn't seem to have this problem, but my iphone has been having this issue for some time now. I cannot load anything on my iphone because of this. I'm unable to go online for more than 3 seconds at a time, literally. HELP! I've resetted my network settings, forgot my network, and renewed lease on my settings, but I still haven't found a fix.

    You are in a bad service area. Maybe you should think about switching carriers. Having bad service is not an iphone problem.
