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.

In "purchases" while in my App Store, Mountain Lion says, "an error has occurred" and the green 'download' button is grey and I cannot re-start the download. I was abroad when I purchased this app and during download, my internet connection was lost.

In "purchases" while in my App Store, Mountain Lion says, "an error has occurred" and the green 'download' button is grey and I cannot re-start the download. I was abroad when I purchased this app and during download, my internet connection was lost. At the time, Apple was still offering the e-chat, so I did that and the man was very helpful and it was a quick fix, so my download button turned green again, and I was able to begin the download. BUT during the download, I was kicked offline once again, and I decided to wait until I was back in the USA. I will go in to an Apple store and ask assistance, but if there is something I am missing, I'd like to try that first. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Please ask this question in the Mac App Store forum where they can better assist you.

Qosmio X500: Lan/Internet connection get lost after period of time

Hi all,.
I got the qosmio x500 for about half a year now...
I got this problem where after about 5 hours or less the lan/internet connection get lost.
I disabled the wireless connection and is using only the wired connnection now.
When it get disconnected... all devices seems to work seemlessly, no problem can be found. I checked the win7 network adaptor --and it seems to be connected properly.
I haven't got a slightest idea how to fix that.... Only a reset of the system and reloading the os results with a valid connection.
It is even stranger,. When using it for a piriod of time (listeding to audio streams from the web)... when getting back to the machine the audio connection seems to work properly.... but when trying to access other sites, or other machines in the homegroup, or network (under explorer). It result faulty.
Please guide me somehow how to fix the issue, it is bugging me a lot (all these resets to the machine probably doesn't do it any good as well).
thanks in advance,.

Hi,
It could be the energy saving feature of your network card.
Right click Network Icon on the status bar, choose 'Open Network Center and Sharing', Click on 'Connection', Click on 'Properties' (low left button), you'll see the tab with your Network Properties. Click 'Configure' (Upper right button), choose 'Power Management' (last right tab).
Uncheck 'Allow computer to shut down this device to save energy'. Probably your problem will now be solved.

On a certain website, it says to click here to download plugin (Java). When executing the download, it says 'the installer cannot proceed with the current Internet Connection settings. I'm running 4.01. It was fine before the upgrade.

On a certain website, it says to click here to download plugin Java Runtime Environment. I receive the message installer cannot proceed with the current Internet Connection settings. It was fine before the upgrade to 4.01. I have another PC that has IE on it and it works fine and again it worked fine until the upgrade to 4.01. I've done the off-line download but in Firefox it still says I need the plugin and still results in the installer cannot proceed with the current Internet Connection settings.

You can install Java from here: http://www.java.com/en/ 
You also need to update your Flash installation since the one you have at the moment exposes your system to attack. It's a similar story for Adobe Reader.

Restoring Internet Connect settings

How do you restore the Internet Connect settings from backup? I have a new installation and I copied everything over but when I open Internet Connect it doens't show any of my dialups. The usernames and passwords and phone numbers are in the keychain.
Is there any way I can avoid having to reset all this manually?
thanks.

Marlinespike:
Glad you got it resolved. I saw your question, but I had a very busy weekend and hardly got near a computer.

ATV returns to home screen when Internet connectivity intermittently lost

I'm using Apple TV 2nd generation running software v4.4.2 over WiFi. I can watch about 3-4 minutes of video, or browse the Movies menu for about 3-4 minutes, before being thrown back to the home screen (missing the Movies menu) with an error message saying the Internet connection is lost. Then a couple of seconds later the Movies menu re-appears and eveything works fine for anoter 3-4 minutes. It makes the ATV unusable and it's infuriating. Any idea why:
- only the ATV complains about intermittent loss of Internet connectivity (my Mac and iPhone are on the same WiFi and never have any problem)?
- if there was loss of Internet connectivity for a few seconds, why doesn't ATV play from buffer, or even pause, instead of throwing me back to the main menu?
- eveything used to work fine before I upgraded to v4.4.2?
More importantly, what can be done to fix this?
Many thanks.

Thanks for this. Downloaded istumbler and installed on OSX 10.7. It crashes.
It can't just be a network issue: I have no problem streaming audio and video to a Mac, PC or phone on the same WiFi. And if the ATV software was designed correctly, it should just buffer - not bomb out - in case of an intermittent network issue.

Internet Connection Settings Inconsistencies

Hello,
I have a scenario where a small group of Windows 7 Pro computers are going to be used to administer an exam. The exam will be done in MS Word and the students
will be permitted online access to a few sites for research. In addition to their being a proctor in the room, the web-sites that the students will be allowed to visit must be metered. The easiest and cheapest way I have found to do this is to use Windows
7's built-in Internet Connection settings, much in the same way the settings for IE can be controlled, but for all of the browsers on the operating system. I set a proxy to a bogus address and allow exceptions for sites on a per address basis. A GPO prevents
users from changing proxy settings after they are logged in to Windows.
The problem is that the allow list for web-sites does not perform consistently. Allowing *.abc.com or just abc.com has the differing effects. Also not all of the
sites work on all of the computers. Abc.com will work on one machine but not another even though they are cloned from the same Windows image and are using the same proxy settings. A GPO is not used to distribute the proxy settings. I couldn't find where to
do that in group policy. Also, going to www.abc.com will work for a site but the entry
of just abc.com will not, though it is entered that way in the proxy list. Windows clearly states that entering just abc.com for a site will cover all domains going up and down, but it doesn't in practice. This is very frustrating. Has anyone had to do something
like this in the past or have a way to make Windows behave consistently?
Thanks

Hi,
Could you please have a share with the IE version?
We should make sure the GPO works on the Internet Explorer version on all Windows 7 machines.
In addition, regarding proxy bypass list, we may check this article:
Using Proxy Selection and Proxy Bypass Lists
Here is another thread for reference: Internet Explorer exception for proxy

Or we may consider to set the firewall settings as Ed suggested.

Internet connection settings

Hi,
I recently went on holiday to China for a week and during that period I used airport wifi connections and the broadband connection in my hotel room, but since my return home my dial up connection has been giving me problems. When I go into Systems Preferences and the Network setting and try to change them I get a drop window that informs me that 'Your network settings have been changed by another application' which I can't get rid of. When I press OK it simply returns. I have to use force quit to escape and I can't change the settings. Any suggestions?

I had partial success with your last suggestion in that the pane that dropped down to tell me about my settings being set by another application stop doing so which allowed me to put in the details about using an external modem, etc. Then I locked it,- but when I use the Internet Connect in my dock, it dials okay but the authentication always fails and I have to go through the Network/Configuration to access the internet. ( The 'assist' doesn't seem to be active anymore) Also, all the details on the PPPoE page have gone and the screen isn't active to allow me to insert them. And could you tell me if it's correct for the NETCfG tool box to appear on the lock when it asks me about using the password...Deny/Once/Always use ? I'm always suspicious when I see those little 'exec' boxes appear.
Could the fact that I downloaded the Frostwire sharefiles application just prior to going on holiday have anything to do with my problem?
Thanks for your continued interest. Much appreciated.

700w internet connection settings?

Just subscribed to Page Plus for my 700w Verizon phone. Initially it worked great until I updated to the latest 1.22 version. Now I can't connect to the internet and the pop up window says I need to change settings. I've tried over and over and can't seem to find the right settings it wants. Did upgrading to 1.22 cause some kind of settings change that impacts the internet connectivity? The only thing I can "see" that's changed is that it added the "wireless manager" feature, but that shouldn't have had any effect on the ability to connect right? Suggestions please.

How I can i retrive the $20 gift card.

Hey tiger.jor,
I would first check and see if the gift card's balance has been applied to your account:
Tap the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks.
Scroll to the bottom of the Featured tab.
Sign in with your Apple ID.
If you have a credit balance, you'll see it below your Apple ID.

Why does firefox crash when the internet connection is lost?

We have been having trouble with our internet connection recently and firefox crashes whenever the connection is lost, but this didn't used to happen, so I was wondering why this was happening.

If there is any intermittent issues or connection is lost you will revert to the menu, regardless. The 'apps' are fed via server and there is nothing stored on the unit, it simply caches when you are online.
As for the initial wait time. That could be due to ISP throttling, interference, using another DNS

FF will not hold internet connection settings when closed

Since upgrading to FF4 and subsequently to FF5:
Each day, after booting my system and starting FF, I have to go i nto preferences to reset the internet connection to 'no proxy'. FF defaults to a manual proxy config when closed. The network connection setting of 'no proxy' just won't hold when FF closes.

Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.

No internet connection and lost apps

I had a virus scanner in place and phone was password protected. I have removed the battery and waited a few minutes before replacing it. I can receive email but can't access the internet and have lost half my local apps including those I paid for. What do I do? I need to be able to access the internet from my phone.

I have had the same issue. Was fine last night then the phone froze completely. Put it into "sleep" mode and thats when it wouldnt turn back on at all. I then had to remove the battery and return it back on. After turning it on all my apps were there but wouldnt open and had the green droid face on them. I went to the google Play Store and it went back to the Market. Facebook would give me an error that it wouldnt log me in. It was in some sort of limbo. it also removed me from the internet and now it wont go back on even after resetting it 2 times (one just the phone the second the phone plus internal memory) im really getting tired of all the crap that is being downloaded through updates. its screwing my phone up. Just got done dealing with it restarting a million times at 2 am! grrrrr Please tell me I will be able to use my wifi again this is getting annoying.
