IMac Internet Sharing keeps dropping

I have set my iMac to share my internet connection so that I can use my MacBook wherever I am in my halls/dorm.
Since last year the connection between them keeps dropping multiple times per day and I'm left with an exclamation mark on the Airport icon on my MacBook. It sometimes resolved by renewing the DHCP lease on my iMac and sometimes by restarting Airport, but most of the time both fail and if they do work it's never for very long (a few minutes). The only way to get it working properly again is to restart my iMac.
I've also noticed that whenever the connection drops, a new network appears in the Airport menu called "Free Public WiFi". When I looked this up it seems to be an issue with Windows; something I stay well clear of and have never connected to or allowed anyone to connect to my network.
Does anyone know what the issue is and how I could resolve it?

It sounds to me that you are getting interference from a competing wi-fi signal on the same channel/frequency. Unfortunately, that is getting more common as more folks go wi-fi. Which is why in this house we are strictly ethernet, even though one Mac has a 25 meter cable to connect! There are now 7 wi-fi networks among my neighbors. (But ethernet is much faster than wi-fi, and my LAN flies with the new 10 Meg fiber optic service we just had installed! And for less cost than the 4 Meg copper wire ADSL we had from the cable company.)
I would try switching to another channel. I am not familiar with how many you have in the UK to use. It is best if you can get a free channel that has at least one network free channel between you and another signal. So if you know of another network on channel 6, then try to be at least on channel 4, if 5 is also free, or 8, if 7 is also free.

My imac running Lion keeps dropping the Internet.

My imac running Lion keeps dropping the Internet. Sometimes just switching the wi-fi off and on corrects this but sometimes there it says no ip address. I have found restarting router sorts the no ip address. Help can I do something to stop this. Thanks simon

Your profile shows you're using SL, but you posted it in the Lion forum. So, assuming you're using Lion, I've seen posts where creating a new Network Location and adding a different named wi-fi connection has help others with this problem.
You can also check your router for firmware updates.
Many posts on this topic. Search forums for other possibilities.

If I have my iMac internet sharing turned on, the Airport Utility won't recognize the Airport Express I want to use to stream iTunes to my stereo. When I turn the iMac internet sharing off, the Airport Express appears but calls itself a base station.

If I have my iMac internet sharing turned on, the Airport Utility won't recognize the Airport Express I want to use to stream iTunes to my stereo. When I turn the iMac internet sharing off, the Airport Express appears but calls itself a base station. I just bought the Airport Express and it's not clear how I should set up my System Preferences for Sharing. Thx

Yes. Unfortunately the stereo is too far from the wired ethernet connection My iMac is connected to the internet using an ethernet cable from the DSL modem (plugged into the wall, not wireless). The Airport Express is plugged into an outlet 25' away from the iMac and connected to my speakers. I've turned on the iMac Airport wireless Internet Sharing, hoping to stream iTunes to the Express connected to the stereo. The iMac Airport picks up several neighborhood networks so I know it's working (and I connected my iPhone wifi to it just to check as well).
When I use Airport Utility to set up the Express, the only time Utility recognizes the Express is when the iMac Airport is off. When I turn on the iMac Airport, the Airport Utility immediately loses the Express and asks to rescan.
Maybe that explains my problem better.

Imac internet sharing ethernet - time capsule - wireless client use imac

hi all,
i have the following setup in mind:
a g5 imac with 3g modem attached and internet sharing (3g/ethernet) switched on. with an ethernet cable it is connected to a time capsule. through the wireless option of the time capsule i want to be able to use the imacs internet sharing with two macbooks - its not working ....
imac: g5, no wireless, os 10.5
macbook: wireless, os 10.4
macbook pro: wireless, os 10.6
what went wrong? how to set up the time capsule to allow the internet sharing coming from a wired mac to wireless clients macbooks?
or is this not working at all???

If you configure your Mac to share an ethernet internet connection over AirPort, your G-devices should have no problem connecting. We do it here with iPods and an iPhone, they are G.
My Mac mini is connected to the internet by Ethernet cable to my ISP's Arris gateway. I am sharing the Ethernet connection to two iPod Touches and an iPhone via AirPort from my Mac mini. This is how I configured the Mac to share the connection;
1. In Sys Prefs/Sharing I highlighted Internet Sharing (do not check the box)
2. Share your connection from: Ethernet (from the dropdown menu)
3. To computers using: AirPort (check the little box)
4. Press the button AirPort Options...
5. Name your Network
6. I use Automatic for the channel
7. I encrypt my network using a 40-bit WEP key
8. *For a non-Apple device you must use only a 5 alphanumeric character, 40-bit WEP password or only a 13 alphanumeric character 128-bit WEP password*
9. Press OK
10. Check the box for Internet Sharing
11. Answer any dialog boxes that pop up

Iphone / imac internet sharing

i was wondering if anyone knows how i can use my imac to internet share
with my iphone. there was a post i found in this forum with directions but
i somehow couldn't get it to work.
here is the post:
posted a more basic question about built-in airport extreme under that topic heading and got my answer: Even without a router, you can set up your imac to work as a router for other wifi devices by sharing your internet connection. Go to your iMac's System Preferences>network>sharing>services and click on personal web sharing and then click "start". Then click on the Internet tab and click on the "START" button for Internet Sharing. Choose Airport in the drop down menu of "Share your connection with"... I figured I should post it for others to see.
is there another way to to do this. thanks in advance.

It will not work for iPhone with either (1) no WEP, (2) 40-bit WEP, or (3) 128-bit WEP. It will work for laptops connected however. The iPhone gets an IP DHCP address, but just doesn't work. The data request goes out, but nothing happens. The firewall is set to enable web sharing. The console is giving messages of (com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.InternetSharing) Unknown key: SHAuthorizationRight and the tcpdump keeps reporting request after request, but nothing happens. See below this message. Restarting the choice of wireless on the iPhone does not have any effect. Stopping and starting Internet sharing does not have any effect. Basically, it just doesn't work.
Here is the tcp dump, but I don't really know how to read it.

Internet Sharing keeps needing to be reset

Hello-I am using internet sharing to allow my iPhone, iPad, and 2nd iMac access to my cable internet connection. This certainly works fine, except lately, I will try to connect to the internet on my phone, and the web pages do not load. I can fix it by going to internet sharing preferences, turning off sharing, and then turning it back on again. This is annoying, because I'm usually in the other room when I want to use the internet on one of these devices. Is there a way to fix this? I called AppleCare, and they just had me restore from Time Machine backup, which didn't resolve the issue.

Hi gallaghm,
That's not good when you notice the drop in speed is your computer connected wirelessly or wired? If it's wireless it could be a problem with the wireless channel and resetting the hub is changing this for you. Check out this link and let me know if this helps.
Thanks

Internet connection keeps dropping at night

I'm having a bit of a weird problem with my internet connection. I connect via an ethernet cable and the connection keeps dropping. It generally starts after 7pm and seems to be every 40 minutes. I have changed the microfilters and ethernet cable but I'm still getting this problem. The really weird thing is that all four lights on the hub are blue but the computer cannot connect to the router. Sometimes the connection will just drop other times it will say limited connection. I've finally had to resort to windows diagnostics and sometimes even that doesn't work. I swapped my black hub with the old white one and I didn't have this problem of the connection dropping but my connection speed dropped to 1.5 - 2mb.
I was thinking maybe there was something wrong with my ethernet card but now I think it must be something in the black hub because the white one worked. Am I correct in thinking I need a new router?

IPad 2 wifi issues with iMac internet sharing

I have the iPad 2 [ (Wifi + 3G) ( iOS 5.1.1 (9B206) ] which connected to my 21" iMac [Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E53)] through Internet sharing seemlessly some time back.
However of late, with latest software updates on the iMac & iPad, the connection seems to work only intermittently.
The connection breaks every half or one hour, despite both the devices being in the same room.
I have tried almost all suggestions on forums like resetting your network settings on iPad, changing channels on the iMac for Internet sharing, with or without password security, resetting the firewalls on & off on the iMac, but nothing seems to work & the only way is to reset all your settings all over again.

I used Internet Sharing like this couple of times!
The situation happens is that when you share your internet over Wifi, and you password protect it, when you connect the iPad or any iDevice to that new hotspot, it happens that after selecting that hotspot, we need to turn on "Auto Join". So when the iPad gets disconnected, it gets disconnected completely and you need to connect back once again. So when you turn on "Auto Join" it will get connected automatically once again it gets disconnected maybe due to power saving or suddenly it leaves the hotspot.

IMac internet sharing failing to connect to my Blu-Ray disk player.

I have a Late 2009 iMac 27-inch. I have setup internet sharing through wifi. All of my iPods, iPads, iPhones connect just fine. But when I try to connect my Blu-Ray disk player, it gives me a timeout error. It is a Panasonic DMP-BD87P-K. I have called Panasonic, but they didn't offer to many things.

Internet Sharing is clearly working. The only options you can configure are the type of security and the channel. If changing those doesn't help, then either the device is too far away, or it's incompatible.

IMac internet sharing with WinXP

Hello everyone,
I'd like to post a little issue I found with my new iMac (OS X 10.5.7). I had it connected to the internet, directly through the ethernet cable modem. I used the Internet Sharing option to share the connection through Airport.
I have a mac mini running Windows XP for media centre purposes. The XP in the mini sees the wifi network created by the iMac, but when I select the option to "connect", it suddenly reports an error and says the network is out of range...
(Wifi network config: Automatic channel selection, WEP password only)
Any ideas on what could be causing this? I "solved" the issue by reversing the process (i.e., connected the cable modem to the mini, created the network in XP, and connected the iMac to that network).
My iPhone connects flawlessly to the internet through wifi on both configurations, as does my macbook...
In either case, this is going to be a temporary solution until I can get a Time Capsule, so I'm more curious about cause of the problem than actually worried about it.
Thanx in advance for any input on this!

Based on your description of your devices this is how I would set this up.
In System Prefs/Network make sure Airport is a network service in the list on the left. If it is not, add it to the list by clicking + and selecting AirPort from the Interface pulldown menu, give the service a name, such as AirPort and click Create. Highlight the service in the list on the left and Turn AirPort On to the right. Lastly, check the Internet Sharing box on the list to the left. (As you can see, you must do these steps in this order because as soon as you check the Internet Sharing box, the other options are greyed out and unavailable to configure.)
In System Prefs/Sharing choose Ethernet from the Share your connection from pulldown menu. Then click the Airport option in the list for To computers using. In AirPort Options give your network a name, choose Enable encryption, and select 128-bit in the WEP Key Length pulldown menu. Because it is 128-bit you should enter a 13-character password and confirm the password. Click OK.
I do not have Windows on a machine to actually set this up and test it, but I have XP on my Mac in a virtual machine and these are the instructions to connect to an encrypted, secure network;
1. Open Network Connections.
2. Click the wireless network connection icon, and then, in Network Tasks, click View available wireless networks.
3. Under Related Tasks on the left, click Change the order of preferred networks.

Why Does Home Sharing keep dropping out?

Hi,
I recently got an apple TV and I'm very happy with it. However one irritating thing is that the Home Sharing in itunes keeps dropping out. So I sit down comfortably in my armchair, ready to watch one of my home movies that I have in itunes movies on the computer, and go to select it and 'nothing'. I have to drag myself upstairs, open itunes, disconnect home sharing and then reconnect home sharing and then everything is fine.
It's not a huge deal but rather irritating. Can anyone tell me how I can prevent this disonnect of home sgaring from happening?
Thanks,
Steve.

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.

IMac Internet Sharing Wireless - G

Hey guys, I was wondering if I could somehow make my iMac's built in airport card emit a wireless-g signal for the internet sharing. That way I can use my windows desktop to connect via wifi with a wireless g adapter.
Thanks

If you configure your Mac to share an ethernet internet connection over AirPort, your G-devices should have no problem connecting. We do it here with iPods and an iPhone, they are G.
My Mac mini is connected to the internet by Ethernet cable to my ISP's Arris gateway. I am sharing the Ethernet connection to two iPod Touches and an iPhone via AirPort from my Mac mini. This is how I configured the Mac to share the connection;
1. In Sys Prefs/Sharing I highlighted Internet Sharing (do not check the box)
2. Share your connection from: Ethernet (from the dropdown menu)
3. To computers using: AirPort (check the little box)
4. Press the button AirPort Options...
5. Name your Network
6. I use Automatic for the channel
7. I encrypt my network using a 40-bit WEP key
8. *For a non-Apple device you must use only a 5 alphanumeric character, 40-bit WEP password or only a 13 alphanumeric character 128-bit WEP password*
9. Press OK
10. Check the box for Internet Sharing
11. Answer any dialog boxes that pop up

Roku with iMac internet sharing

I have an iMac and can use internet sharing to get my ipod touch online wirelessly. I assume that the iMac sets up a wireless network. But, my Roku can not access the internet wirelessly through the iMac wireless network. Why?

If you open the Sharing Pane in System Preferences and try to enable Internet Sharing, you will note that the options for " To computers using..." are for computers - that answers your question re. Macbooks. I don't have a technical answer for your question regarding iPods, but I am guessing that their Airport card simply "talks" to the iMac's Airport card.
Even AppleTV requires a wireless router and so does the Roku; below are several Apple articles with some helpful information (and explained in a much better way than I could):
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8156.html
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8292.html
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3821
On this one, especially this section:
+This icon will appear if you create a wireless network between two or more AirPort-enabled computers without using an AirPort Base Station. Other AirPort-enabled computers within range can join the network you created by choosing it from their AirPort status icon, or by choosing it from the Network Name pop-up menu in the AirPort pane of Network preferences.+

Internet sharing keeps starting upon reboot.

I have lion installed on a mac mini with 2 usb ethernet adapters. Everytime I reboot the mac mini, it enables Internet Sharing and changes the IP on the 2 USB ethernet interfaces to 192.168.2.1 and 192.168.3.1. How do I stop this from happening. Disabling it in the preferences panel and resetting the IP addresses on each interface get wiped out once the server is rebooted.
