Internet Cuts Off Repeatedly

Please help. I tried searching in the forums for the answer that I want, but can't seem to find it. My internet connection drops when my new MBP comes out of sleep. I have to manually select my wireless network everytime it comes out of sleep.
Any suggestions?
And if you do have suggestions, please email them to me at [email protected]
Thank you in advance!

Open System Preferences/Network
Under 'Show' select 'Network Port Configurations'
Drag Airport to the top and uncheck all the rest
Under 'Show' select Airport
Set 'By default join' to 'Preferred Networks'
In the box below select your Network Name then click the 'Options' button
Set 'If no preferred networks are found' to 'Keep looking for recent networks'
Check 'Use Interface Robustness'
Click OK
Click 'Apply Now' button bottom right
Close the Preference pane

  • Internet cuts off everytime I answer the phone

    Everytime I answer the phone, my Internet cuts off.  When I hang up the phone, the Internet comes back and I can connect.  I did not have this problem until we had the TV's connected to Fios.

    You don't say so but I am guessing you are using a 2.4 GHz cordless home phone and a wireless connection from your router for your PC(s). If so, usually the easiest fix is to log into the router and change the channel that the router is using for wireless for your PC. I think by default the router is set to automatically pick the channel to use; just change the setting to use one of these channels: 1, 6, or 11. Depending on the activity in your area you may have to try all of those to find the one that works best. For me, I found that channel 1 works best with my cordless phone and my neighbor's wireless internet, but your experience may be different.

  • Getting around my school's internet cut-off time

    I currently attend a prep school out on the east coast, and they have rules like a prison. One thing that really irritates me is that at 11:30 PM every night they shut off the internet. I can still see full bars in my airport but I cannot access any thing online, not even through iTunes store or Mail. Is there any way I can get around this and access the internet after it has been shut off?

    Probably not... It sounds like the school is cutting off access to external networks (i.e., the internet) at 11:30 (or, more likely, cutting off the access points in the dorms from external networks).
    It's not a hardware issue or something you can address in your computer -- it's a change in the network itself. I suppose you could break into your school's network operating center and change the settings, but that would be difficult, illegal, and probably get you expelled.
    Of course, you could get an EVDO-modem for your MBP (Verizon has one that uses the ExpressCard slot). Service is about $80/month, and the speeds are not quite broadband, but if you really need to get on the network it might be worth looking into.
    Or you could just go to bed at 11:30...

  • Internet cuts off when using the phone

    The last few days, as soon as the phone rings or as soon as we use it the internet completely cuts off.
    We have recently moved the positioning of the router to pick up a better signal and it has improved (still not the best) but now this problem has occured.
    Help would be appreciated...

    If you have moved it to an extension socket, then that socket may be wired up incorrectly. If you have plugged a phone into the original location of the BT Home hub, have you remembered to insert a microfilter before the phone?

  • Internet Cutting Off

    I have a verizon wireless dsl modem/router that's 2 years old. My internet keeps cutting out 2 or 3 times a day. HOWEVER, the lights stay on as if there's nothing wrong. It's not a virus because the computers been thru 2 System Recoverys. Is it the modem box and is there anything I can do to fix it?

    No, not that.
    Try: System Monitoring -> Advanced Status -> Transciever Stats.

  • Internet cuts off

    Hi,
    Months ago I posted on here that my speeds on my line were really slow, after some helpful users my speeds picked up and it was sorted. Now I have gained a new problem. Speed is fine, however now, at random times, this happens at no specific times, my internet will just stop. it can be whilst im doing anything, gaming, browsing etc... It can even be fine, then not used at all until I go back to use it and its not working. Each time, sometimes more than once a day, sometimes omce a day, sometimes once every couple days, I have to go unplug the router for different times between 10 seconds to 10 minutes,before restarting which fixes it. Could this be a fault with the router, I have home hub 3. Or is this likely to be a fault on the line?
    Any help appreciated
    regards, Adam

  • HP Laserjet P1102w - Right side margin cut off when printing in Internet Explorer 9! URGENT PROBLEM*

    Hi,
    I have just purchased a new printer (HP Laserjet P1102W), and when I print a web page in Internet Explorer 9, the footer (I set to the URL) does not print at all and the header will print though the right hand edge of my entire web page is cut off (including my top right header - Pages ? of ?).
    I always use Print Preview first, and in the print preview it looks perfect. I always tick the box to enable shrink to fit too. Why will it look perfect in 'Print Preview' but yet when it prints, it cuts off the right hand side edge of the page and doesnt print the footer?? I have tried adjusting margins, etc... all to no avail.
    I would like to check whether others have this same problem?
    I spoke to HP (UK Printer Support) and they said it is Internet Explorer 9's problem. I have left a message on the Microsodt Web forum which you can see here. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/forum/ie9-windows_vista/internet-exploer-9-not-printing-header...
    I am hoping they may release a patch / hotfix - but this has to be affecting many other users of this printer too? The more of us that complain, the quicker it will get sorted.
    Any others with the same problem?
    Thanks.

    I spoke with Microsoft technical support via phone today. Between us - we seemed to have found the problem.
    It's to do with the DPI (the font size) settings in Windows!?
    I have mine set to 188% on my Windows Vista mahcine and 200% on my Windows 7 laptop.
    From my Printing tests in Internet Explorer 9...
    at 100 % DPI – it prints perfectly
    at 150% DPI – it prints perfectly
    at 200% DPI – the right side of the margin is cut off, and no footer is printed – despite it looking perfect in the Print Preview.
    I am using http://uk.msn.com/ as my test print outs.
    This indicates when the DPI is changed above 150%, IE9 doesn't print properly – though other browsers like Safari or Firefox do print correctly. This surely has to indicate a bug in either the Windows operating system or Internet Explorer 9?
    Microsoft are going to run their own tests and phone me back tomorrow...hopefully with a solution!
    Hope this helps any others with the same problem at the moment!
    Would be great if HP could provide a soloution asap - surely a tweak to the Printer dirvers will fix the problem?

  • Firefox cut off access to the Internet.

    Firefox cut off access to the Internet.
    In a first time, Firefox completely cut the connection forcing me to restart the Mac OS 10.6.4.
    I restored a version of Firefox antecedent using Time Machine than a month old.
    Now, the connection problem is only partial and Firefox more accesses to the Internet.
    In addition, I must force the software to quit and when I try to restart Firefox, a message tells me that "A copy of Firefox is already open. A single copy of Firefox can be open to both "...?? ?
    You said weird? Someone has an idea on how to solve this?
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Hi
    This is driving me insane and my dad wont listen to me, but maybe he will if he heres someone say something who knows about it.
    Every so often, usually every day if not more than once a day I get cut off from the internet on my Mac Mini (G4) for 5 - 10 minutes at a time. I have no idea why this is happening, and from what I have seen it only seems to be affecting my computer on the home network.
    I am using a NETGEAR DG834N router and my Mini is the only one connected to it via ethernet the rest are wireless. We are also with Pipex as out ISP and I'm running 10.5.5 on my Mini.
    Hope thats enough information so that you can help me, I would really appreciate it very much, and if you need anymore info I'll post back.

    I mean that I cant connect to any webpage over that time, through Safari or any other browser. I cant do anything which needs to be connected to the internet.
    How would Id o a ping test? And how would that help me find why this is happening?
    Thanks...

  • When printing a highlighted (selected) print range from an internet item pulled up through Firefox, the first line of the selected range is not printing or is partially cut off.

    When printing a highlighted (selected) print range from an internet item pulled up through Firefox, the first line of the selected range is not printing or is partially cut off. This is not an issue with my printer, as printer prints the whole selected print range when using Internet Explorer or Word Doc applications. The problem only happens when using Firefox. Please advise on how to fix this. Is this a settings issue or do I need to download and update? Thx
