Ipad2 constantly loses wi-fi connection

While playing games online or surfing Internet, wi-fi constantly loses connection. Any resolutions?

What make, model, and version router are you using? How is it configured? Does it have the latest router firmware from the manufacturer?
No one can offer much good advice without this sort of detail.

Since going to IOS 7 constantly lose wifi connection

Since going to IOS 7 we constantly lose wifi and end up on data (Who do i send the bill to Tim?) usually it takes a while for the proper wifi to eve show up.
Does anyone have a similar propblem and hopefully solution. Besides going back to ios 6.1.4 ?
BTW love the phone but hate the colors and icons and operation on 7 as a result of all this pain.

We constantly lose connection to the server

We have an Leopard based Apple server and constantly lose connection. Our wireless router is an AT&T. We have no disruption to internet service. Any ideas on how we can maintain connection?

B210A constantly loses connection

Set my B210A up on the network, and it constantly loses connection. It wll connect then lose connection 2 minutes later, then reconnect by itself, then loose connection 1 minute later. I set it up, cleared defaults and reset it up, and the report said I had 146 disconnections (1 hour period). No other device on the network is having this problem.
Router (Netgear N600)
WPA
Trying to print from HP Dv7-4290us
DHCP
Auto IP
I wanted to add this does not happen when it goes to sleep. It happens when it is ready to print. In fact I can not install the printer on my computer becasue it does not stay connected long enough.

Hello rkboid,
Seems like the network connection of the unit is a little unstable. You can try solving this by giving the unit a static ip adres. This means the unit will keeps it's ip adres instead of getting a new one from the router every few days or so. This can be a lot of help with unstable connections.
This is how to do it.
- Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address. If it is 0.0.0.0 or 169.254.x.x then the printer is not connected. You will have to re-connect it using the same method you did originally.
Now that it is connected, this is how to set a static IP:
- Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings. (if this does not work, you likely have a firewall and/or security system blocking it - please advise).
- Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
- On this screen you want to set a Manual IP. Enter the current IP address that is on the printed page.
- Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
- As Gateway use the ip adres of the Router and DNS blank. Click 'Apply'.
Reboot the printer and your computer and after this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address. But not always needed.
Let me know if this works for you.

Windows 8 Constantly Loses Internet Connectivity

Hi, I have a new Dell Inspiron 17-3721 with Windows 8. It is connected to a Linksys WRT160NL Wifi router.
The laptop occasionally loses its internet connection (approx. once per hour, even as I type this), and can't even connect to the router (neither ping nor its web page). When I look at the network settings, everything seems to be OK (IP address, DNS and
gateway settings), except that it reports no internet connectivity.
Other computers in the network running Win XP, Vista or Android don't have any problems at all, so I am dead sure it's not a problem with the router or my ISP.
Sometimes the problem goes away after a few minutes, but usually it persists for a long time.
What is odd: When Internet Explorer times out it shows me a troubleshoot button. When I click it, usually connectivity is restored after a few seconds, while troubleshooter is trying to find a problem. I believe it pulls something straight while analyzing
the network. I only wish I knew what.
I uninstalled McAfee security center because someone suggested it might be the root of the problem, but it didn't help.
Windows is up to date, also the BIOS has the latest version (from 3 days ago).
Any other hints?

A small update: I disabled IPv6 because somewhere it was suggested that this might be the problem, but it didn't help.
I compared the output of ipconfig/all between working and non-working network, but there is no difference. Everything looks the same.
Tracert to the DNS server doesn't help. Since not even the wifi router (which is also the DHCP server and the default gateway) is available (ping 192.168.1.1 times out), tracert stops there. I'm using my ISP's DNS servers which are assigned
via DHCP.
Maybe it's not necessary to mention that again, but: All other hosts connected to the wifi router can always ping it, and they can always query the DNS servers and they can always open web pages and they can always send emails and whatnot. It is unbelievable
that the latest version of windows has a problem with such a basic issue.
I installed Ubuntu on the same laptop today. So far it didn't have a problem with the network. I do admit that the installation of wifi was a little less out of the box.
I haven't found the time to use netmon yet. I wonder what it would tell me. I have never used netmon before. Is it comparable to wireshark?
In case someone wants to look at the output of ipconfig, here it is:

Macbook Constantly Loses Internet, but not Wireless Signal

I have a black 2008 Macbook (don't have the full specs on me since I'm on my work computer) and it constantly loses internet connection (i.e. I can no longer visit websites), however Airport continues to show full signal strength to my wireless network. I think it may be a DNS issue. Is it possible for the Airport card to go bad? Has anyone else had these issues?
FWIW, I'm using AT&T U-Verse for my internet connection. I think the issue is specific to my computer. My two roommates also have macs, and they have no problems with the internet dropping.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

No idea if I'm honest. I used a landline phone on the same line as the broadband. When i used the phone, i could hear it crackling.Once they had done whatever they did, that crackling disappeared.

3G - Constantly Having to Refresh Connection

Hi
I have my i-phone 5 on a stand when I am in the office (so I am not moving around at all) and it is connected to 3G, then for no particular reason, I constantly lose connection to the 3G signal and may end up with GPRS, EDGE etc.... then I have to go into Settings> Mobile> Mobile Data to turn this off, then turn back on again, 2 seconds later my 3G is restored, but I am having to constantly do this and was wondering if anyone else is experiencing these disconnection issues?
Many thanks

My IPad2 constantly locks up and I have to turn off in order to get any updates and sometimes just to open Safari

My IPad2 constantly locks up and I have to turn off in order to get any updates

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
In terms of Safari you can try clearing its cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History).

Hi, I’ve recently bought an iPad2 and can’t get connected with AppStore or iTunes, when I tap on these icons a grey page pops up saying is loading but never opens the page, no failure message is displayed, it just keep saying is loading.
Apparently it is not an issue with wifi since Safari, You Tube and Maps work well, I’ve tried some of the tips, e.g. log off/on my Id, change password but no one worked.
Your help will be highly appreciated.
Thank you.

Try a reset. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider.

I lose my internet connection on my XP computer when the printer is connected as wireless.

My new hp6510 wireless printer works great but I lose my internet connection when the printer is connected as wireless. I am using the printer with a linksys router E3000. The network has an XP computer , a win7 64 bit computer. I do not have a problem with the win 7 computer, but the xp computer will drop the internet connection and sometimes I can get it to work by repair of the router connection, but sometimes I will need to reboot the computer. If I stop the wireless connection and use the USB it works OK. I have tried to get help from HP and Linksysm but no help. I would appreciate any suggestions.
This question was solved.

Try signing out then back in. Try again.

I have a modem from my cable company that provides WiFi. When I try to connect time capsule to the modem via an ethernet cable I am unable to and I also lose my wifi connection

I have a modem from my cable company that provides WiFi as well as ethernet ports for internet TV and Sonos. But when I connect Time Capsule via an ethernet cable to the back of the modem I am unable to get it to work and I lose my wifi connection completely. I added Time Capsule to back up data and also to extend the reach of my wifi with an airport extreme hooked up by another computer.

Put the TC in bridge before you plug it in.. ie do the setup in isolation to the rest of the network..
I would also start a new wireless name on the TC so it is different to the cable router..
If you want to be exacting also set wireless channels so the cable router is set to say channel 1 and the TC set to 11 for 2.4ghz. Then plug it in.. you will have no trouble as the TC will get an ip address as part of the existing networking.. then extend the wireless using the extreme.

TS1702 I had this Scrabble on my iPad2 and began to have connection problems, it would lock in the "connecting" position. This is not the first time Scrabble has had problems with interface. Typically customers delete the Ap then download it again to rein

I have contacted EA about this and can find no help. I had this Scrabble on my iPad2 and began to have connection problems, it would lock in the "connecting" position. This is not the first time Scrabble has had problems with interface. Typically customers delete the Ap then download it again to reinstall it. During the process you sign in and approve the purchase KNOWING that another window will open saying that you have previously purchased it and that there is no charge. So what happened this time? It will not connect and all of my saved and current games are wiped out. I want my money back, this game interface is pretty junk and operates like some ancient DOS program,,bug,bug,buggy. I want my money back.

Streaming radio when I lose my wifi connection

I want to stream radio with wifi, but I am concerned I will rack-up big charges on my data plan if my internet connection dies. Is there a way I can force streaming to halt if I lose my wifi connection.? I discovered my iPhone will switch automatically to cell streaming when wifi streaming is not possible.

You can turn airplane mode during streaming, or go to settings and turn off data in the cellular settings.
