IPhone 6 64g on AT&T loses network connection

My iphone seems to have trouble reconnecting to the att network after being in a place with bad reception, ie metro tunnel or grocery store. to regain network connection I either have to turn airplane mode on and off or restart the phone. anyone else have this problem?

I have the same issue with my Iphone 5 on ATT. It is a hardware issue with the Iphone 5 antenna. I took my wife's Iphone 5 and my Iphone 5, both on the same IOS version, and ran the exact same apps at the exact same time and mine took a big dump while hers kept running perfectly. Solution....1. Narrow down how to make it take a dump. For mine, I run a station on IHeartRadio, check Facebook, check my email, load a lengthy webpage, and send a Imessage in the middle of the page loading. My phone will drop connection EVERY time. 2. Make an appointment at apple. 3. Tell em the issue and let them goof around with it. 4. Every time they say they fixed it, stand right there and force it to lose data connection. 5. Eventually they will run out of cheap fixes and give you a new phone. 6. STAND THERE AND ATTEMPT TO FORCE IT TO LOSE CONNECTION. Do not leave yet!!!! Repeat steps 4 to 6 until you get a phone that does not lose connection. A friend of mine went through 8 phones before getting one that did not lose connection. I am making my appointment now, finally got tired of it crapping out 10 or more times a day.

  • My itunes account shuts down for no reason.  It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and itunes.  I have already  reinstalled itunes and did a syste restore on my computer, firewall checked and virus scan done.  Ideas??

    My itunes account on windows xp shuts down for no reason.  If even try to delete something from my library it shuts down.   It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and I can't connect to the store.  I have already  reinstalled itunes and did a system restore on my computer, firewall has been checked, itunes is ok on firewall and virus scan done.  Ideas??

    Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?

  • E4200 - Plug in external USB drive & lose network connection

    Hi - I have the Linksys E4200 [version 1] and my wireless network is set up and configured. I'm browsing with no issues.  Within Linksys setup, FTP & UPnP are enabled.  I have a 500GB Toshiba external USB [2.0] hard drive [E05A050DAU2XM].  When I connect it to the E4200 the data light on the modem goes off within 10-20 seconds & I lose network connection.  I've tried leaving the drive plugged in and rebooting either/both the cable modem and the router but network connection is not restored until I disconnect the drive & power cycle the router.  Not sure what is happening.  The modem is a Cisco DPC3010 DOCSIS 3.0.  I should also say that this was happening with, I believe, firmware version 1.0.01.  I updated to Ver.1.0.06 (build 3) & the issue is still occurring.  Thanks so much for anyone who could lend their advice!

    It maybe a drive size problem that maybe the problem and not compatible. If a smaller size drive works and the larger does not. then this could be the issue. I don't recommend any drives over 500Gb to 1Tb on the USB. The larger the drives are the more problematic the issues can be and should a drive become full, the longer processing of the information will be come and USB is not the best performance for handling large file xfers and should not be used like dedicated NAS.Some routers are just not compatible with large size USB drives. If you need a large size drive for files and streaming, a dedicated NAS device would be suggested and prefered over USB drives. 

  • T440 + USB 3.0 Dock = Loses network connection

    Our company is in the process of upgrading all our Windows 7 clients (x200) to Windows 8.1, but have run into a strange issue on our new Lenovo ThinkPad T440 PC's. They seem to lose network connection shortly now and then.
    This results in several issues like: 
    - Office 2013 programs crash when working witt documents on the network. (Outlook 2013 crashes if using .pst archive files on network shares.)
    - Printers are displayed as unavailable. (Need to restart Print spooler, before it realises that the connection has been reestablished)
    We are using ThinkPad 3.0 USB docks, if these might be the cuase?
    The eventviewer is pretty silent in most cases when users experience the connection loss, but can the following 3 messages tell anything?
    - The speed of processor 3 in group 0 is being limited by system firmware. The processor has been in this reduced performance state for 71 seconds since the last report.
    - The user account is in a different forest than the computer account. The processing of Group Policy from another forest is not allowed. Group Policy will be processed using Loopback Replace mode. The scope of the user policy settings will be determined by the location of the computer object in Active Directory. The settings will be acquired from the User Configuration of these policies.

    You guys have any ideas what I might try?

    Working for DisplayLink, I would recommend v7.2, as it fixes a number of end user issues that were coming up on previous 7.x versions.
    The lid can be closed, but usually the laptop will be configured to go to sleep when the lid is closed. This can be changed in the Windows settings. We have an article on how to do this here.
    V7.2 includes a completely new Ethernet driver, which was designed to try and improve speed and reliability. After upgrade it might be worth removing all cables from the dock, power cycling it and replugging, just to make sure it is updated correctly.
    We know of an issue that can cause a slow upload speed with some host controllers (ironically we turned on a change to try and improve Ethernet speed, but seems to have problems when used with some PC host controllers) and I wonder if this is the issue you are seeing.
    We have a fix for this in our next 7.2 maintenance release which will be available in the next month or so.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium printer LOSES NETWORK connection daily

    I've had my printer for a few years.  I've had no problems with it. Suddenly in the last week it refuses to maintain it's network connection.  It is WIRED.  It has a STATIC IP.  The router is set up to reserve this address for the printer.
    I have uninstalled ALL HP software, downloaded the current versions and reinstalled.  It works fine.  If nothing is printed for a period of time (not sure the interval) it refuses to find the printer. 
    Powering off the printer will reset it to work fine.
    I've checked EVERYTHING. 
    There is one article about this happening on Windows XP and talks about changing the ink alert but I've tried following those instructions and I canNOT find anything it is talking about.
    I verified that printer is using current firmware.
    When it loses it's connection to the network the router can't see it either. 
    HELP.  It is most annoying to have people yelling at me all day to fix the printer.
    NOTHING has changed on my printer set up.
    The only changes to my network recently were installing 3 IP cameras and adding port forwarding for ports 2604, 2605 and 2606.  If that were causing an issue I'd expect it to NOT print at all.  After reboot it prints fine until it goes a period of time without printing theni t disappears from the network again.

    Hello smsdavis, and welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see you are running into connectivity issues.  I would like to try and help.
    I would recommend powering down the computer and printer.  Once they are both off, remove the power cord from the wireless router for 60 seconds, and plug it back in.  After the router begins broadcasting, power on the printer and the computer.
    I would also suggest utilizing this document on Wireless printing center Troubleshooting Issues.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

  • Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V Host Loses Network Connectivity

    Here's the scenario...
    We have two 2012 R2 Hyper-V hosts (VM1 and VM2) in a cluster that have 8 virtual machines that live on them. The servers are each utilizing three network connections that are teamed (Switch Independent, Address Hash).  They all go to the same switch.
    Three nights ago at approximately 11:30 PM VM2 lost network connectivity. The server was up it was just inaccessible from the network. I could not ping in or out from it, no internet connection, yet the network connection icon did not show that it was
    disconnected.
    Two nights ago we had no issues.
    Last night, same thing happened at 11:30 PM. VM2 loses it network connection.
    The only thing that seems to fix the issue is a reboot. Once the server comes back up everything is back to normal.
    Anyone have any idea what is happening here? I do not see anything that sticks out in the logs that could point me in the right direction....

    Hi Sir,
    Based on my experience , first you may need to keep the physical NIC driver up-to-date .
    Also please check if there is "VMQ"/"virtual machine queue" property in advanced properties of physical NICs:
    If yes please disable it for each team member then check the result .
    Best Regards,

  • Why does my iPhone 5 have so much trouble with network connections?

    My iPhone 5 cannot hold a consistent network connection. It jumps all over the place. Back and forth from 4G (att 3G) to EVDO to nothing. I am in areas where my old iPhones have had no problems. I drop calls and have failed downloads everyday. Not what i expected...

    I live in NJ. I've had every version of the iPhone. iPhone 5 is the worst. Or is it that AT&T is the worst?  I'm still trying to decipher if the problem is the phone or the AT&T network. At times I'll have no bars. My iPhone 5 will go from no bars to the Edge network or vice versa. And I'll have to shut the phone off & turn it back on just to get the bars & 4G back. I don't use the LTE because it drains the **** out of the battery. Another thing I've noticed is that I don't get all my text messages & voicemail notices, at times, hours late. This is very frustrating since I haven't had this problem with any other iPhone that I ever owned.  Please help! SIM card change before exchanging the iphone out? PLEASE HELP!

  • Lose Network Connection w/AEBS 802.11n when transferring large data amounts

    Hi,
    I have a LaCie 500GB external hard drive that is connected to my AEBS 802.11n via a USB hub. Lately, when I am backing up my MacBook Pro to that drive, transferring 5GB or so of data, I notice that my MacBook Pro loses connection with the AEBS (i.e. the network goes down) right smack in the middle of the data transfer. I either have to reboot the MacBook Pro -- or -- unplug and replug the AEBS to reestablish connection.
    I was just wondering if this sort of network connectivity loss is being experienced by other people doing large data transfers over the AEBS to an external drive?
    Thanks.
    Message was edited by: jmFightSpam

    I hate to be the one adding a "me too" post, but, me too!
    When I try to open iPhoto (library stored on a USB drive attached to AEBSn) the AEBSn crashes, flashes orange once or twice and then restarts. Currently running firmware 7.2 because 7.2.1 wasn't allowing me to reconnect to AirDisks after MacBook went to sleep. If the drive is connected directly to my MacBook there is no problem.
    If anyone, anywhere has any idea, I'd be very grateful!

  • Hyper V virtual machine randomly loses network connectivity

    I have an extremely odd issue happening on one of my Hyper-V virtual machines.  For no apparent reason and completely sporadically my virtual machine will lose all network connectivity.  It is a linux Vyatta firewall image.  Digging through
    the logs shows nothing at all when the machine actually goes offline, but when the machine starts back up I just get a Warning stating the network driver on my virtual machine loaded but has a different version from the server.  Server Version 3.2 Client
    version 0.2
    I've ran the integrated services setup disk and nothing has fixed this.  When the VM loses connectivity it is for no apparent reason, sometimes at 1am sometimes at noon, just happens.  The only solution is to reboot the VM to bring it back online. 
    Has anyone else seen this or know of a fix for it?  Its starting to slowly drive me insane! 
    Hyper V Server - Windows Server 2008 R2 - Hyper V Manager Version 6.1.7601.17514
    VM - Linux Vyatta Core 6.3

    I tried downloading new integrated services disk setup for linux, but Vyatta wouldn't work with it so I was kind of stuck there.  And not sure where you are talking about changing NIC to legacy at.  I did disable some TCP chimpney settings as
    per an article I found, but not sure if it will fix it or not.  Sometimes the machine will stay on for a month before losing network connection and sometimes it comes in spurts and happens like 3-4 times over a couple days.  Its really odd

  • FP1600 loses network connection after a few hours

    My FP1600 loses its network connection after a few hours. It is part number 185690C-01, with firmware 4.11. I am running FieldPoint Explorer version 3.0.1 and LabView 6.1 from Windows XP Professional. I set it up, and everything runs fine for 4 hours or more. I do not have the network watchdog enabled, and the FP1600 is in constant communication with the host computer in any case. Sometime in the middle of the night the communication is lost. The FP1600 link light
    is on, and it is still receiving packets, but it will not respond to a ping or any other communications. Only a power cycle brings it back. The FP1600 is sitting right next to the host computer, both attached to the same network switch. There is no interruptio
    n of network services to the two.

    Hi Heinz,
    We are also trying to troubleshoot this same problem (Intermitten network connection loss with FP1600 Ethernet Module - Error code "33163", Error Message - "FP1600 Connection to module has been lost."). We have checked other possible causes for this sort of behaviour. Including independent assessment of netowork availability at the time of error reporting, connecting dedicated power supply to the FP1600 module, temperature of cabinet housing the module (which is between 10 and 50 deg C), disconnecting sensors connected to various I/O modules connected to this module, increasing duration of parameter "time out" (the time module will wait before reporting an error if it can not access network). However, none of the above resolved the intermittent and random network loss errors.
    The MAX version is 3.0.2, and the firmware on the module is 4.17, Labview version is 7.0 and the Operating System is windows NT.
    I was wondering is there any information about this problem from any user or NI recently. The only solution looking in to this discussion forum seems to be replacing the module.

  • My mid 2010 MacBook Pro loses network connectivity

    I have four mac computers running on our home network.  My mid 2010 MacBook Pro has become notorious for losing network connectivity with the other computers.  It maintains it's internet connectivity consistently, but it's ability to see and connect with the other computers on the local network is finicky at best.  The other three computers (2008 iMac, 2012 iMac, 2012 MacBook Pro) all connect to our Actiontec MI424WR Fios router via ethernet, whereas the mid 2010 MacBook Pro connects via WiFi.
    If anyone could please help me troubleshoot the issue, that'd be much appreciated.
    Sincerely.

    Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    Take all the applicable steps in this support article.  
    Step 2
    If you're running OS X 10.8.4 or later, run Wireless Diagnostics and take the remedial steps suggested in the summary that appears, if any. The program also generates a large file of information about your system, which would be used by Apple Engineering in case of a support incident. Don't post the contents here.
    Step 3
    If you're not using a wireless keyboard or trackpad, disable Bluetooth by selecting Turn Bluetooth Off from the menu with the Bluetooth icon. If you don't have that menu, open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked Show Bluetooth in menu bar. Test. Continue if you find that Wi-Fi is faster with Bluetooth disabled.
    From that same menu, select Open Bluetooth Preferences. If the box labeled Discoverable is checked, uncheck it. Click the Advanced button, and in the sheet that opens, uncheck the top three boxes, if any are checked. Click OK. Enable Bluetooth and test again.
    If the application called "Bluetooth Setup Assistant" is running, quit it.
    Step 4
    This step will erase all your settings in the Network preference pane. Make a note of them before you begin, and recreate them afterwards. It may be helpful to take screenshots of the preference pane.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "SystemConfiguration" selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Step 5
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional — ask if you need guidance.
    If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.

  • Why does my apple tv 2 lose network connectivity?

    I've searched on this topic for a while and have not found an answer as to why I keep losing network connectivity.  After owning my apple tv for almost a year it started losing network connectivity.  At first like many others it just required me to re-enter my network information.  Now however the only solution is to restore the apple tv downloading the latest OS.  I first believed this was due to its IP address expiring and the apple tv not acquiring a new address.  So I set a static IP address for the apple tv.  It worked for a few more days and then stopped working again.  Next I thought it was perhaps the actiontec router I have with my internet service so I added another router to fix this problem.  I first set the router up with my macbook and checked its connectivity (everything worked fine).  When I went back to the apple tv I had the same issue.  I selected the new network and entered the WEP password and received the 3902 error message.  I know now the only way it will work is if I restore the apple tv.  And I know at some point no matter what router I use it will stop working.  Because I've loaded various iterations of the OS I have to believe its a hardware issue.  And unfortunately when I finally discovered this problem my 1 year warrant expired so I'm SOL.  Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is occurring?  I've read and tried the various "solutions" others have used for networking issues (static ip's, fixing the channel etc.) and nothing seems to work.  I have no means of hardwiring this thing so if no solution is found I will need to dump it for something else.  Worst apple experience I have had to date and it really leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

    Can you explain your thinking or if you have ideas on what it might be? I should not say its a hardware problem but I do believe it's the apple tv. I have friends with the same setup as me without problems. They have the same service provider, router (make, model) without any issues. And like I said it worked for almost a year. And the only fix is a restore of the apple tv. Rebooting the router, changing ip address assignment, fixing channel, downgrading to b or g from compatability mode has no affect.
