IChat lately started randomly disconnecting/reconnecting

anyone smart enough to know what this means?

...and how i get it to stop happening?
i haven't changed anything with my network settings that i can think of.

Hi,
If you mean you don't want to Disable SSL you need to know that when the AIM SSL server Fails, iChat resorts to a NON SSL login and iChat has to be Manually reset to use SSL when the server comes back on Line. It does not happen automatically.
If you mean it did not work then also try deleting com.apple.iChat.AIM.plist and restart iChat so it is recreated.
The file is found in your Home Folder/Library/Preferences.

  • EA6300 Random Disconnects/Reconnects

    I have a newish EA6300 router, and the connection will randomly but often (every 15min or so) drop for a second and then reconnect.  The firmware is 1.1.40.153731.  I have two laptops in the house and this issue happens on both computers.  I also have another wireless router (Zoom N150) and when I connect the computers to that router the connection is stable and never drops.   Any idea why I'm getting these random disconnect/reconnect issues with the EA6300? I would very much like to only use the Linksys router because of its superior power, range and ability to handle more devices and traffic, as well as eventual AC capability.  However I can't use it as a primary connections because of this issue.

    Thanks for the reply.  I had already changed the channel and it did seem to improve things.  I still get disconnects but they are MUCH less frequent.  My next step will be to move the Linksys router away from another wireless router that is nearby that may be causing interference. I have another question.  I have used inSSIDer to examine the signal strength of the wireless networks around my home.  This is what helped me to know what channel to switch the Linksys router to.  But I've noticed that inSSIDer shows two networks when the Linksys router is on.  I do not have a 5ghz wireless card in my computer, so only the 2.4ghz band shows as a network.  One of the networks is my network that I have named, but the other network is unnamed (no SSID), and this mystery network will occassionally get a big drop in signal strength.  I have attached a screen shot.  The blue line is my main (named) personal network, an the yellow line is the mystery network that turns on when the router is on.  You can see the downward spike in that yellow line that indicates a momentary loss of signal in that mystery network.   Any idea why two networks show up?  And if their coming from the same router, why would one lose signal while the other doesn't?  Again, I don't have an AC network card, so I'm not seeing a 5ghz band so the second one can't be that.

  • Lion iChat server - router keeps disconnecting/reconnecting

    I have an issue with the iChat server in Lion. While it generally works for logging in, presence and sending messages to users, there appears to be an issue with the Rooms component and the jabberd router. From system.log:

    This repeats over and over, quite frequently. Any good jabberd gurus know where I should look? I checked out the router.xml but nothing stood out as obvious.

    Had a similar thing just now with Mountain Lion (after much trouble post the Server 2.2 update) where the hash in these files eg
    /Library/Server/Messages/Config/jabberd/c2s.xml
            <!-- Username/password to authenticate as -->
            <user>jabberd</user>
            <!-- default: jabberd -->
            <pass>HASHED_SECRET</pass>
    /Library/Server/Messages/Config/jabberd/router.xml
            <secret>HASHED_SECRET</secret>
    and others in that folder all matched, but they mismatched with info in these plists…
    /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Print secret" /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Proxy65.plist
    /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Print password" /Library/Server/Messages/Config/Rooms.plist
    set those with eg
    /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c 'Set secret HASHED_SECRET' /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Proxy65.plist
    (use single quotes so the various hash characters like * and ! etc work)
    After that and an off/on of messages, the syslog improved and after a reboot went totally stable (wrt jabber anyway!)

  • OS X Lion - iChat keeps randomly disconnecting me!

    I am using OS X Lion and I love iChat. It combines both simplicity and powerful usage in a nicely designed app. I don't want to use any other alternatives. I want my iChat to work again.
    Has anyone been facing the same problem ? iChat keeps randomly disconnecting!

    Hi,
    In previous version of iChat that could log into AIM with (or without) SSL had two Server names that used to show depending if you used ther SSL or not.
    The names of the server used to change as you selected or deselected SSL
    SSL was added in iChat 4 to the AIM  logins
    The server name was slogin.oscar.aol.com
    It was known that this server seemed to be less stable than the "regular" Server (login.oscar.aol.com)
    This may have been due to the lesser number of server involved with any SSL Logins and any drop at the server end was therefore more noticeable.
    It is also known that AIM require that any dropped SSL connection is manually restarted and should not rely on Automatic reconnection.
    This generally means that if you are using SSL then you will need to do a manual reset and restart of iChat if the connection is lost.
    (hence my suggestion earlier that SSL be turned Off for AIM logins until the Servers had become more stable.
    iChat 6 (in Lion Also automatically changes any account that logs in to AIM to the api.oscar.aol.com server.
    It appears that this server can handle SSL and non SSL logins (there is no name change).
    You can manually change iChat to use the older server variants.

  • Network drives randomly disconnecting, unable to reconnect

    I have been having an issue with network drives randomly disconnecting. When I try and reconnect using the Connect to Server dialog, the share is greyed out. My current workaround has been to open up terminal and run umount /Volume/Share_Name, and I am able to connect again afterwards. This is happening multiple times a day, and across multiple servers. I have poked around the forums and seen some people with similar issues, but the solution of connecting with cifs:// instead of smb:// has not made any difference.

    which ultimately means apple didn't do enough testing before releasing the last patch
    This is not always, and may not be, the case. What many don't realise is that many 3rd party developers stray from the 802.11 series specifications in an attampt to boost speed and get one up on their competitors. For instance D-Link, amongst others, use a short preamble setting by default in some of their routers to improve performance. However, this is non-standard and when it comes across wireless network adapters that don't support this then you have problems. They assume that their network adapters are being used for "maximum speed and compatibility". Whether Apple should or should not support a short preamble is another subject altogether.
    However, I do agree with you in that Apple should put more work into their Airport software.

  • IChat randomly disconnects because of "too much activity"

    I've noticed this problem recently -- in the last few weeks. iChat/AIM will just disconnect me and say that I've been logged out due to too much activity and I should try logging in again in a few minutes.
    In years past I've experienced problems where if I type too many IMs in a short enough period of time, I'm blocked from sending further IMs for a minute or so. When I first saw this new message a few weeks ago I was puzzled because I wasn't typing that much. Then it happend a few more times, and just today it's happened twice, once when I hadn't typed anything for at least 10 minutes.
    Is anyone else having this problem? I assume it's an AIM server issue, but I'm curious if it's only affecting the iChat client or if it affects other clients as well. Anyone have a clue?

    Hi Josh,
    It is as you suggested much more likely to be an AIM server thing.
    At this time of year through to about the first week of December AIM do a Deep Clean of unused Screen names and allow them back on to the Available list so to speak. These are the screen names that people havew registered but have fallen out of use.
    OF course they may be in someone else's Buddy list (And never show up if Off line Buddies are not displayed) Therefore they those names are on other servers that hold the Buddy List.
    Clearing them out causes things to go out of synch. It used to cause problems about four times a year when some people could not get on line for some time. (Dec being worst)

  • Random Disconnection From My Wireless Access Point

    I got my MacBook a few weeks ago, wand I'm loving it... for the most part.
    Info: I've been using my Linksys WRT54G router for years. I've never had a problem. I currently have a desktop Mac connected to it along with my MacBook, and the connection on the Mac is fine.
    *The problem:* My MacBook doesn't hold a steady connection to my router, even when I'm just mere feet away.
    *What happens:* I have a very strong connection on my WiFi with the built-in AirPort. Then, a few seconds later, all of the 4 bars drop to 0 for a few seconds, jump back to 4, go back down to 0... you get the picture. I find this frustrating, as the internet may shut down for a minute at a time, regain connection for a few seconds, and then lose connection after about 10 seconds. I am unable to use iChat (it shuts down whenever I lose connection), or easily browse the internet.
    *I know it's not the router. My desktop Mac connects with ease. Should I take my MacBook to a Genius Bar?*

  • WAP321 random disconnecting clients

    Hi all,
    I'm having problems with my WAP321 that is randomly disconnecting clients. It's not disconnecting all clients, but just a couple of clients. It's random which clients get disconnected and it can be different clients that will be disconnected when it happens a couple times, but they do get disconnected at the same time.
    My setup:
    Cisco ASA5505
    |
    Cisco WAP321
    |
    Cisco 7925 phone - iPhone - Macbook - three IP cam's (different brands) - and some more clients
    Last time it occurred I just for sure changed DHCP server from Cisco ASA5505 to two windows servers, now it happened again, my 7925 started beeping (enabled SSID monitoring on it so it alerts when it isn't connected to my Callmanager) and my iPhone couldn't connect to the SSID. My Macbook was still just connected. Retrieved a diagnostics report and checked the logging, rebooted the WAP321 and everything started connecting again.
    Noticed screens are scaled so hope it's readable...
    The MAC address is my iphone. I turned off the 7925 because the beeping was annoying so no logging from the 7925 trying to connect.
    Logging is saying:
    assoc request from [mac] BSSID [bssid] SSID LEVELS
    STA [mac] deauthed from BSSID [bssid] reason 3: STA is leaving IBSS or ESS
    There is nothing wrong with the coverage, the WAP321 is about ten feet from the iPhone and Cisco 7925 phone
    Can anybody help me how to best troubleshoot this issue. I'm not familiar with the troubleshoot/debug options available for the WAP321

    Dear Wesley,
    Thank you for reaching the Small Business Support Community.
    There is an opened caveat on the latest firmware release, version 1.0.4.2; CSCue24521:
    -Symptom: Some clients may lose wireless connection when authenticating via Captive portal.
    -Workaround: Reconnect wireless devices.
    If this is not the case I'd like to know if you have tried using a different IEEE 802.11 standard, same as a different authentication type.  If you are not running the latest firmware release I then suggest you to, and something else I've seen from experience that fixes similar issues is to reset to factory conditions and reconfigure manually.
    http://software.cisco.com/download/release.html?mdfid=284152656&softwareid=282463166&release=1.0.1.10
    I hope you find this information helpful and please do not hesitate to reach me back of there is any further assistance I may help you with.

  • Apple TV Randomly Disconnects From iTunes While Streaming Videos

    Hey All,
    Anyone having an issue where your Apple TV randomly disconnects from your iTunes on another computer while streaming videos from it? Randomly, on different shows and movies, I have had it do it quite a few times.
    In the beginning, after it would disconnect, within a few seconds, it would reconnect to iTunes and then I would have to navigate back to what I was watching and and resume it. Now, it will disconnect, and then I will have to quit iTunes on my iMac and then start it up again.
    I am curious if it is an issue with the wireless adapter on the ATV because when it happens, it looks like it losses complete connection with the iTunes and then reconnects to the net only after. Then I would need to restart iTunes on my iMac to continue watching my show.
    This was happening before the recent update and continues after the update as well.
    Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!

    You're talking about those WIFI bridges they make for xbox 360s that connect the 360 ethernet to a wifi adapter, bridging it?
    That is a possible solution, but I will definitely check with Apple first, hoping it will be a no money solution (I am a grad student, every dollar helps).
    My apartment is two rooms, my iMac being in another room, so that wouldn't work. The Wifi extender will probably be my only hope if Apple is not cool with the helping a brother out.

  • WRT54G v5 Randomly Disconnects

    Hi, I have been having this problem for the last couple of weeks and am not sure what the problem is. My WRT54G v5 router is connected via Ethernet cable from a cable modem to 2 PCs. Lately, the router randomly disconnects(i.e. there is no set amount of time in between disconnections - the interval has been as small as 30 seconds and as large as several hours), then reconnects automatically. Every time it disconnects it reconnects itself. However, I'm pretty sure this is not typical behavior and would like to fix it - especially as it severely limits online gaming. When I take the router out of the loop and connect either computer straight to the cable modem, I have no problems no matter how long I seem to be online. I have updated the router to the latest firmware version and that has no effect. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I would be very grateful.`Thank you for your time.
    Message Edited by Hodges on 06-06-2008 04:59 PM

    I have already upgraded the firmware to v1.02.5 build 002, Jan. 9, 2008, and I haven't noticed an improvement. Like I said, it's completely random. Some days it won't disconnect at all. Other days it disconnects fairly often. But I have no problems when I bypass the router and connect straight to the cable modem. Thank you for the response. If you have any other thoughts, I'm open to suggestions.

  • Windows 7 keeps freezing, disconnecting/reconnecting USB devices

    Last week, a lightning strike near where I live caused a power surge and as a result, my ethernet card was fried.  I took my computer (iMac) to a store to have it repaired, and they wound up replacing the entire motherboard (a bit extreme in my opinion, but what do I know).
    When I got it back today, sure the ethernet problem was solved, but I noticed that my taskbar was acting weird - specifically the icons in the notification tray.  Lots of them were "blank", meaning there were just empty spaces that would highlight when I hovered the cursor over them, but nothing happened when I clicked them.
    Then I discovered that clicking any of the icons in the notification tray almost immediately froze the computer.  Frozen, as in completely unresponsive to the point where my only option was to manually shut off the computer.  That happened twice.
    My solution was to reboot in safe mode and run system restore to an earlier point.  That fixed the notification tray problem (no more freezing, and the icons were all back), but the computer still keeps freezing at random intervals.  Again, my only solution is to manually shut it off by holding down the power button, which I hate doing because I know it's bad for the hard drive.  Sometimes it froze as soon as the welcome screen.  I tried running a virus scan, but again it froze in the middle of the process.
    On top of the constant freezing, it keeps disconnecting/reconnecting my usb devices.  My mouse and keyboard will suddenly drop out for five seconds and then start working again.  This constantly happens, to the tune of several "disconnect" sounds playing over the speakers.
    What the heck is going on?  I tried re-installing the Boot Camp drivers, but that didn't work.  I have my Windows 7 CD and backed up files, so if worse comes to worst I can do a clean install of Windows, but I'd rather not have to spend a day re-building my computer, and I'd REALLY rather not take it back in for another repair, since that took a week and I need this for my work.
    Any ideas on what I should do?  I'm out of town on my laptop for the weekend, and I'd like to have a game plan for when I get back.

    I'm very excited to finally have a solution for this problem. Thank You Balaji for figuring this out. I've been struggling with this for a number of years, and had only one USB Hard Drive that worked. I too have VMware workstation, and had the missing files
    in "c:\windows\inf." I can say with certainty that I did not delete the files from that folder, but something is common in both of our situations. Maybe it has to do with VMware, and some of it's updates over the years. I'm also using nCompute to share out
    a networked desktop via the wire. 
    One more thing worthy of mention is this machine was an update from Windows Vista, and the USB hard drive that worked was configured back than. So although I could never add another HD, at least I had the one.
    Now with having copied over the files, I can plugin other USB enclosures with different drives and they too are working.
    Like you mentioned, it was always possible to use USB devices within my Virtual Machines, so it was clear that the USB ports were functional. I actually got the files from a clean Windows 7 VM, copying out the \windows\inf folder and doing a compare between
    the the real one and the virtual one. I found the two missing files you mentioned, along with 8 others. I went ahead and included them all in your fix.
    It worked, Amazing. Thanks again. :O)

  • My phone will randomly disconnect from the wifi and when I retype the password it says it is wrong. It will eventually work but I have to wait for a message to pop up on my screen to allow me to retype the wifi password.

    When I first got my phone it worked perfectly fine with the wifi. Although later on I began to have problems connecting it. It will randomly disconnect from the wifi and when I try to retype the password it tells me it is wrong, although it is right. It will eventually work but in its own time, a message will pop up and allow me to type in the password and it will work. But sometimes it takes an hour or more and sometime it takes 10 minutes. I've seen where other people have had this problem but I don't know how to fix it. I'm not sure if it's an issue with my phone or if it's with my wifi. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Does this happen with all Wi-Fi hotspots?  A specific one?
    Have you tried forgetting the Wi-Fi connection and then reconnecting to it?
    What about power cycling the Wi-Fi router?

  • Undocumented 'random disconnection' from manually connected wireless

    I have got a USB-N13 wireless-N300 dongle.
    According to 'lspci -k' I have the drivers, and I have a wireless interface. So I know that my dongle has drivers but I don't know if they work 100% well.
    I will show the output of various normal commands:

    This is all the information from when I fist see an wireless interface.
    All, I can tell is that my wlp5s0u1 doesn't go down, but a few seconds before I plug in my wireless bridge, or enp4s0, my 'Internet stops...' Or I can't search google, and my youtube stops streaming, conky says that about 30bytes get transfered from that point on, and there is no errors?!
    I'm not on a laptop, and my device's power saver is set to off. And as I'm not getting the second error I don't know how to fix this.
    $ iw dev wlp5s0u1 get power_save
    Power save: off
    (Sorry if this is blatantly obvious, I've only had arch for under a month, with no prior Linux experience, and my dad can't help me with it too!)
    EDIT:
    Please can someone please tell me something that I can try or look into to resolve this, I have a useless dongle now, and an Internet connection that drops at least 50% of the packets.

  • IPod Classic Randomly Disconnects from Car Stereo

    I have a 160GB iPod Classic that is hooked up to my car stereo. Previously it was connected to a 2012 Kia Sorento SX and it would just randomly disconnect from the stereo and freeze. The only way to get it back was to do a hard reset (menu/select button held down), then start playing a song, and then connecting to the stereo. It didn't happen frequently, but maybe once or twice a month.  Annoying.  But I thought it had to do with the way Kia implemented the connection to the iPpd.
    I just recently acquired a 2014 Acura MDX and I've already had that same annoying problem twice in 2 days. So now I'm starting to think maybe it's the iPod.
    In the past, I've done a full restore, repaired the drive, etc. Nothing seemed to help.
    Any ideas?  Thanks!!

    Sometimes this works. Otherwise you will have to wait for an updte to the car system or the iOS on the iPod
    - 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.
    - Reset the car system
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
      - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
