ICloud Disaster with Poor internet connection

i have been working on a document for a day while Internet connection ok. Today it is poor and while working on Pages document on iPad Air connection was slow. I turned off Icloud assuming I could work on document on ipad locally.
I have now lost ALL today's work.
it seems using iOS devices is totally dependent on good connections to icloud
How can I use ipad, iphone iwork apps when iCloud not available and update when it is.
This is going to be a nightmare when travelling.

Firstly, I think it is worth attempting to break this down into two parts: Is it the wireless or the wired part of the network which is causing the problem.
Is it possible to temporarily connect the Mac directly to your cablemodem/whatever via Ethernet, and check the speeds you get? It could just be that your ISP is overloaded and its throughputs are significantly slower than advertised. Googling for bandwith test should give you some sites that let you test download speeds.
If that's OK then its time to look at the airlink. Who is the ISP? What equipment (make/model) have they supplied you with?

  • Poor internet connectivity through WRT160N

    I bought and installed a WRT160N v.3 router about 3 months ago and all was fine.  Recently, however, very poor internet connectivity has been experienced from my other 2 computers connected via wireless.  Last night I upgraded the firmware (actuallly Linksys tech) and it appeared at first to fix the problem.  Unfortunately, it didn't.  The same problem continues on both computers.  I have since done a hard reset and started from default parameters, but that didn't help either.
    This appears to be a common problem, but I haven't seen a complete fix.
    I have a Comcast cable internet connection and a speed test done on the hardwired computer gives the expected download/upload speeds (~20MBps and 8 MBps).  Through the wireless connection to the WRT160N is another story.  Speeds are less than 0.5MB!
    Any suggestions???

    Well, I think I solved my problem.  I had the router set-up with WEP encryption and was getting very poor internet connections on my wireless PCs.  After trying a miriad of fixes found on this site and others, I decided to go to a unprotected network set-up.  I was amazed to see my wireless connectivty jump to the expected speeds for my Comcast cable connection. 
    Has anyone heard of WEP causing a slowdown in connectivity?
    Guess I will try the other security set-ups to see if I can get fast connectivity and a secure network.

  • Avoided poor internet connection

    Just bought an Android phone and it doesn't connect to my WOW network wifi. Very shortly after saying it is connected, it comes back with the message: "Avoided poor internet connection." I do not have this problem with any of my other wifi connected devices: iPhones, iPad, Dell laptops, TVs, ...

    Do you have smart wifi enabled? It will use OTA data if it detects a weak wifi signal versus cellular service. Turning it off forces the use of wifi, no matter the signal strength.

    Ned, thanks for responding. Internet access is not the problem, I will have a tower computer connected to Comcast.
    Isolating the laptop  from the internet is the issue.

  • Download CC versions for installation on a computer with no internet connection

    So I have just signed up with CC as I am wanting to get Photoshop and lightroom
    So I have a computer with no internet access, and so I would like to download the CC versions of the software on my work computer.
    Once downloaded, I will install the software on the computer with no internet connection, then utilise my mobile phone to teither the computer to the internet to register the products.
    So my question is how do this?
    Downloading the software using the manager on my phones internet is not an option. (with 300mb per month quota on the phones not an option)
    I am wanting the CC features of photoshop not CS6 so registering the cs6 version is not an option.
    Also when updates come out for CC where can download those.
    (we have had a change of govt so I might get 24mb/s internet in 2019)
    thanks

    Hi Paul,
    Welcome to the Community!
    You can certainly download the files on a different machine and install on a computer without internet however you should connect to internet once in a month so that we can charge your credit card.
    The option to connect to internet with phone will work however updates needs to be downloaded via internet as the size might be in GB's.
    To download the executable files, visit this page http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cc-direct-download-links.html. Remeber to follow the Very Important instructions or else the download will not start.
    Thanks!

  • I'm having problems with my internet connection after installing OS X Lion. Is this a known problem or just a local problem?

    I'm having problems with my internet connection after installing OS X Lion. Is this a known problem or just a local problem?
    After +/- 10 to 15min my connection is gone.
    Does anyone have a sollution?

    Lots of people are having the same problem, you're not the only one, belieeeeve me.
    Just Googling the problem gets you tons of people complaining about the same thing, SOMETHING is up with Lion what wasn't happening with Snow Leopard. i just bought a new Imac and it CAME with Lion, so i started experiencing this internet dropout immediately.
    It's been going on for the most of a year it looks like (at least by the dates from the threads i've been reading)
    So your best bet is to fiddle with the System Preferences and read what other people have used to make theirs work. i'm doing that myself right now.  I already posted  a similar thread last night trying to figure out why my connection kept on dropping, i got a reply which linked me to a site. i followed the instructions there, so far so good, but i'm just being cautiously optimistic.
    i'm gonna call Apple today and see if they've found anything, though seeing as this is a problem right out of the box there may not be an immediate solution. Good luck hunting for a solution :3

  • How do I maintain license on systems with no internet connection?

    I will be installing CS6 on PCs with initial internet connection, but they will be moved into a space without any internet.
    How do I keep the CS6 working without the connection?
    Is there a license file I can download then apply to the systems without the connectivity?

    Hello Scott,
    Adobe has prepared this informations: https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html
    >>> Additional information for users who are temporarily unable to connect >>> ...I quote:
    What happens if it's necessary to be offline for a while?
    The Creative Cloud software makes a call to Adobe servers once a day to verify the account status.
    If the account is in good standing (that is, payment is up-to-date) when the last call happens, the software status is refreshed to run for at least 99 days while being offline.
    Note: Signing out and signing back in (while online) just before going offline for a long period ensures that the software works for at least 99 days without needing to connect.
    The software still reminds you to connect to the Internet during this time. These reminders can be suppressed until the last 30 days, when a daily message prompts you to go online and refresh the software status.

  • Problem with my internet connection with Mail and others

    Hi
    I seem to have a problem with my internet connection that is through Ethernet. I have just downloaded the update to iLife 9 and the down load speed went from zero to 1.1BB/s but most of the time it downloads at speeds around 8KB/s also Mail some times returns mail sent but there seems to be no problem sending out only that things go faster out than in. My internet speed from my ISP is 500KB/s so as you can see I was at first happy that I was getting speeds in of 1.1MB/s. I have done a diagnostic test through network also fully run Norton and finally run utilities with no problems showing. My ISP is willing to come and have a look at my internet but I some how think it's my computer, any ideas?
    Thanks

    The first thing I would do is completely disable Norton AntiVirus; there are no viruses for Mac OS X, so it can't protect you from something that doesn't exist. It can, however, severely slow down your system. Do that and then restart Mail and see if the problem continues.
    You should also try creating a new User account and test Mail there to see if you experience the same problem; if so, then the issue is systemwide. If not, it's something specific to your regular user account.
    As for your download speed, it's not 1.1MB/s; it's 1.1Mb/s. Upload speed is slower than download speed for both Cable and DSL service. I doubt the problem is your modem/router, but you should try shutting down your Mac and the modem for a few minutes. If your modem/router has a reset button, use it, then restart it and your Mac and see if the problem continues.
