IPad2 loses wifi when xbox360 is on
My ipad2 loses it's wifi connection whenever my son uses his xbox360. They are both connected to a Belkin N750 dual N router. The Xbox is connected to the 2.5 MHz channel, while the iPad2 is connected to the 5 MHz channel. Does anyone know of a fix for this problem?
Thanks!
I would update the firmware of the belkin router to see if they fixed the bug with their router
otherwise I would think about getting a better router, there are tons of issue posts here about belkin routers

Are you running OS X Lion? If so there are unfortunately numerous threads on here discussing exactly the same problem. So far there doesn't seem to be a definitive solution, with everyone hoping that Apple will come up with a permanent fix.
Here's a quick search of these forums alone - depressing reading:

This 'fix' has worked for a few people but, unfortunately, not everyone:

I can't download the latest update and my phone loses WIFI all the time. when I try to connect and put in my password, it just keep searching and searching.
You can download the latest iTunes (version 11) here:

If you just want to stay with version 10, you can get 10.7 here:

I need help with iPod it loses wifi well I'm on FaceTime or apps that use wifi can this be fixed if so how?
Does the iPod connect OK to other networks?
Do other devices have any problems on the network?
Did the iPod work OK before?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:

I have an ipad2 with wifi and 3G. My wife and I are traveling in France (Nice) then into Italy. We are unable to purchase a data plan because our Verizon IPad will not accept a sim chip...we are told. An Apple store employee here said this model is good only in the US. The iPads here take a sim card. We were advised by an Apple Store Employee at home that this model would work in Europe and that we could buy our service here. That does not seem to be the case. We have been told that we must invest in a modem at 200.00€ and then purchase a separate service plan for each country. We can use the free wifi wherever it is available but we cannot connect to the outside world when out of range. Is there anything else we can do?
Thanks, JohnUnfortunately, no other solution is available.
Hope this helps -
iMac spontaneously loses wifi in the middle of work, many times a day. Had been fine for a year and now much trouble. iPhone and iPad on same network do not have this trouble.
If I turn off iMac wifi and then turn it back on, network reattaches
Any help? Thanks....The below has solved my Safari hanging when loading web pages and eliminated my finding the wifi on boot up. It has been a month now and waiting a minute always works for connecting to my airport extreme on boot. I was cleaning behind my desk and realized that the ethernet cable was still attached to the back of the iMac even though I had moved the airport upstairs. I disconnected it. I also opened network preferences. The wifi was moved a long time ago to the top for priority, but the inactive ethernet and firewire were still listed. I removed both the ethernet and firewire so the only connection listed is wifi. My computer has now reliabily found the internet for the last 3 weeks without waiting. It appears that having the other two options disrupts the connection process on boot. It also must cause the computer to continue trying to use the connection when using Safari.

The last 6 mons or so, since buying a new macbook pro, iPad and macmini my wifi randomly disconnects to my airport extreme and therefore to all items in the house (including my iphone) and I have to go unplug it and plug it back in. It can work for days at a time or cut out over 20 times a day. It is incredibly frustrating. Is this fixable or just a giant bug for me to enjoy? I love mac products but this is incredibly frustrating.
Do I have to recreate my entire wireless account on the airport from scratch again to fix it? If so, how? It was working fine with our old macs until we upgraded everything.Not sure that is the issue, as the airport extreme is directly connected to the shaw internet connection box by cable, yet still somehow loses internet connection. The two units are right beside each other. When i unplug it and plug it back in after a minute the wireless is ok again for a while. The issue is all my computing items will randomly all of a sudden lose wifi signal...nut just reduced bars but the signal is gone all together. It is wierd.

the ipad2's wifi bad?Why it can be connected to the router, but the safari will appear (can not join the server)? ?
Some things to try first:
1. 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.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. 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
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

If any of the above solutions work, please post back what solved your problem. It will help others with the same problem.

Ipad2 dropping wifi. There is no rhyme or rhythm to when this happens. Sometimes it takes minutes to get it back, and sometimes much much longer. Sometimes it looses the wifi connection just after it connects. This just started the last 4 months or so and I've had this iPad since it came out.
It might have nothing to do with your equipment but try unplugging your router for a few minutes and see what happens

Itouch loses wifi connection constantly
itouch constantly loses wifi connection, similar itouch has no such problem, updated software to latest version available but issue persists
Additional information, I have D-Link router that came free when I signed up with my cable company so I'm sure it's a basic model. I did update the firmware to the latest and greatest as well.

My iPad uses wifi just fine but when I leave it in sleep mode or power it off it loses wifi and I have to go back in to wifi settings and set it back up again from the beginning, telling it to forget the connection and set that connection back up because it won't use it again.
Not to threadjack or anything, I just want to confirm I appear to have the same problem.
I have started to experience this issue in the last week or so now, where I can put the iPad to sleep (or it does it on its own) and when I wake it and go about using it, as usual, there is no network correction?
I have to go to preferences and reconnect through the network settings.
The other thing I seem to observe is that from time to time it will drop the connection (very) briefly while in use? This within 10 feet of the router and 100% signal strength.
Nothing has changed as far as network hardware, settings, no additional systems, ... Router is a DLink DIR655 with SSID visible. WPA password. Mixed NG mode. -
I've seen all the posts for fixing the wifi on the 4s, none of them work! So, who can tell me why my iPhone 4S cannot find any wifi when it used to find wifi, and when it does find a wifi network it can never connect? You think apple would have a clue how to fix it! Because turning the wifi on and off doesn't work, resorting network settings doesn't work, even restoring phone to factory default doesn't work...
Did not work. I've selected iMessage to ON and left it. After a few hours I recieved a message "activation unsuccessful. Turn on iMessage to try again". This has been going on for the past 3 days.

How come my macbook Pro doesn't automatically connect to my wifi when it is saved under known networks and i have the box checked under network settings?
Random35,
does your wi-fi router filter access by MAC address? If it does, then have you added your MacBook Pro’s MAC address to your router’s whitelist of acceptable MAC addresses?
