Laptop & PS3 disconnects randomly from 2.0 hub!!

Help to resolve??
why does my laptop and PS3 disconnect randomly from my homehub!! when I had the Orange Home hub for 18 months this never happened??? it also automatically switches to bT Openzone!!!
Hub is no more that 7ft from equipment with direct line of site and also is sited in the same postion as was the Orange Home hub??
any ideas

try downloading and running a program called inssider. this will show all wireless routers in your area and what channel they are using, maywell be someone else on same channel

Macbook Air Disconnecting Randomly from Wifi

Recently, about a week or two ago, I began noticing that while on WiFi my Air would just disconnect from the internet. The four bars would still show, the mac would still be working, but it would be just long enough to disconnect me from everything I was doing forcing restarts. After I got extremely fed up with this, I tried my last resort - a PRAM reset. This fixed it... for 2 days. Now it's happening again, about once every five minutes. Anyone else experiencing this?

Power Cycle
Power off the router. Unplug it from the wall. Wait for few minutes.
Connect the router back to to the wall.
Power the router back on. Wait until all lights are lit properly. It will take a while.
Restart the computer.
Start up in Safe Mode.

All iOS devices disconnecting randomly from D-Link router

Hi,
All my Apple devices disconnect every 10 to 15 minutes from my D-Link DIR-615 router. My Apple TV, 2 iPhones and my iPad always lose the connection. Can't stream anything on my Apple TV, I have to reset the router every 10 minutes. This happens only on Apple/iOS devices. My 3 PCs and my Samsung Galayx device don't have these problems, never disconnect and can stream for hours with no problems.
All my Apple devices are up to date. My router has the latest firmware. I have tried to change the channel and channel width to different settings with no luck.
Any idea on how to solve the problem? Changing my router to an Apple AirPort is not an option. The fact that only Apple devices are concerned is certainly not an accident.
Thanks in advance!

Restore the router to default settings and reconfigure.

Bluetooth disconnects randomly from Thunderbolt

Is anyone experiencing trouble keeping their bluetooth paired with the thunderbolt? My headset will disconnect without warning and with no cause- I have not moved or opened a new app.

After researching this issue I was unable to locate issues reported to Verizon Wireless regarding the bluetooth disconnecting. The issue may be with the actual bluetooth and not your handset. You can ensure your Bluetooth settings are correct using the directions below. If you continue to have issues, we can speak with you to trouble-shoot your equipment and bluetooth.
From the Home screen, select the applications tab (lower-left corner).
Select Settings.
Select Wireless & networks.
Select Bluetooth settings.
Select Bluetooth.
Bluetooth is enabled if a green check mark is present.

Connection keeps disconnecting randomly on WRT54GS

I have a WRT54GS router using AT&T DSL. My computer (Vista 64-bit) has a Linksys WUSB600N wireless adapter.
Recently, I've been disconnecting randomly from my router. Once I've disconnected, I have to restart the computer because I can't see my router under the "connect to a network" option. I've just tried changing the channel from 6 to 1, but it still didn't work. I reinstalled my adapter's driver, but it still occurs.
My sister's laptop and iPod Touch have no problems with disconnecting. I don't know what else to try. It's hard to get any work done.

Have you downloaded the drivers for the wireless network adapter from the Linksys website and tried to update the drivers on your computer and then install the drivers on your computer and then try to connect to your wireless network.

M451dn disconnects randomly

Greetings!
I have two printers over here, both M451dn's. One of the M451's will disconnect randomly from the computer. It does not disconnect completely, leaving the M451dn's printer object faded. Instead it creates a new "unknown device" and refuses to function after that. Every time it does this, it displays "HP Web Services" from its menu automatically. The solution (albeit temporary) is to restart the computer or printer, or replug-in the USB cable from either the printer or computer. After that the printer starts printing from the queue in Windows, and functions normally. It only takes a few hours of use for the printer to go back to its old behavior.
I have swapped power and usb cables. Reinstalled the driver, and even plugged the printer directly in to the wall instead of a power strip. Obviously, I could test to see if it is the printer by swapping it for the other functioning printer. But, I wanted to post and see what HP's forum thought first.
Thanks for your help!

These bugs should be related to both 5508 and 4400, pls. see Cisco's software advisory:
http://www.cisco.com/web/software/Wireless/Deferral/Software_Advisory_6_0_196_0.html
You can try both versions to see if the bugs be fixed. If your problem still not fix after upgrade, you have to open debug(debug client xxx) in WLC, use some wireless analyzing tools to capture the packets and check what happened during the disconnection(always remember to use NTP to sync all the related equipments' time). And of course, call Cisco TAC.
Before that, you definately should do some site survey to see if there's any coverage hole, also do some testing especially with simple environment as suggested by George. For example, firstly choose open, no ecryption for the WLAN, no session time out, no aironet extention, no dhcp(using static IP), enable low data rate such 1M/2M, etc. then test it, if problem disappear, then add more parameters towards your final enviroment to see which parameter cause the disconnection. If problem still exist, you need to check Intermec wlan driver, call TAC.

Windows 7 disconnect me from my ISP

Hi,
I'm using Time Capsule and everything works fine with Apple devices and Ubuntu laptops. But when I start a Windows 7 laptop it disconnect me from my ISP every 15/20 min. Not sure why. It only happen when I use Time Capsule. Before I was using a Linksys and everything was working fine. Is there any special settings I should consider on my Time Capsule or Windows 7?
My network is something like this:
MODEM -> TIME CAPSULE ->>> MACBOOKS, UBUNTU AND WINDOWS 7
Thanks for your help.

These are incredibly hard issues to fix.
I have typed all the stuff below and then reread your post.. no where did you say you were using wireless?
But generally this is wireless issue.
Please confirm wireless.. please test by plugging in by ethernet.. turn off wireless in the laptop.. does the problem go away.. if not the stuff below is irrelevant.
Have you..
1. Set up TC using all SMB compatible names.. ie short, no spaces pure alphanumeric.
It might not seem worth it if windows connects but it is worth fixing.. as one step in the long chain.
Set 5ghz to a different name. Eg.. TC24ghz and TC5ghz so you can clearly tell what wireless is which??
2. Use WPA2 Personal security on the TC.. that is the only security valid for N wireless.
3. Lock wireless channels. The TC will auto rotate channels if you are in a busy wifi area. Simply lock it to fixed channels. Much more important for 2.4ghz than 5ghz.
4. Make sure in wireless options area that country is correct and WPA key renewal set to 2hours.. just to make sure it isn't some stupid key rotation.
5. In windows download the latest drivers for your wireless card from the wireless manufacturer not laptop. ie if it is intel card.. download latest from intel.

Regular disconnection from my Home Hub 2.0 on Infi...

For the last year I've been getting regularly disconnected on the wireless from my Home Hub 2.0 router on Infinity - and have to reset to get the connection back (this happens to all phones and laptops connected) - this is despite the blue lights remaining 'on' on the hub. It's now getting more and more frequent (5 times per day) - making skype calling a challenge. Also the line speed degrades and a reset brings this back up. I contacted the help line a few months ago but failed to fully resolve this. In my mind the home hub is faulty and I need a new one - but seems v difficult to get that to actually happen.
I'm on the verge of cancelling and going to another provider now I'm out of contract - any advice?

From the memory, (which is not very good at the best of times), the Home Hub 2 is not infinity compatible. The router needs to be able to support PPoE on a WAN port. The HH2 does not have a WAN port.
Other than that there are lots of threads on here re: unreliable wireless connections. Too many to list all the definitive suggestions. A search should help.
As to BT replacing the router, BT may replace it if it is deemed faulty within the warranty period. If the router is over a year old it will be out of warranty and as it was purchased by you as part of the contract it will be your problem to sort out.
Many on here have replaced or not even used the supplied router. As long as the replacement supports PPoE and has a WAN port, (i.e. Cable router), you should be OK. There as also a growing number of routers that are VDSL capable so it may be a consideration to replace the modem as well. With regards to router replacement this thread may be of interest.

i have just used air display with macbook pro. i have disconnected now from apple tv. but my laptop screen is still very small like its connected to the tv. this means all the tabs and writing is very small. like the display down the bottom where al the applications are, is n the middle of the page and not spread down the bottom. this is seriously annoying! all the writing is every small and the tabs are small and its hard to read. the air display link has disappeared from my computer. but the laptop screen is still very small. i want to know how do i get rid of this and return my macbook screen to its normal size. thank you

Hello chrispyw,
If your content is still being displayed incorrectly, I would check the resolution setting for the built in display with this article:
OS X Yosemite: Adjust your display’s resolution
If it keeps happening whenever you use AirPlay then I would use this section of the following article to reset the display system:
Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
Reset the system
You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.Reset the resolution
Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
Start up in Safe Mode.
From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
Restart your computer.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

IDEAPAD V460 - USB port disconnects randomly

Hi Community,
I am in a trouble with my IDEAPAD V460, 59 - 044185 (4th one from the beginning) which I purchased around a couple of years back. It was working fine without this annoying issue until recently. This partiular model comes with three USB ports, two on the left side, one on the right side.Since around last 15-20 days, any device plugged into any one of the two USB ports on the left hand side of the laptop is getting disconnected randomly. I use an iBall 4*1 USB hub to connect one keybaord, one mouse and one modem to any one of the USB ports on the left side. Initially I thought it to be a software issue. But reinstalling the OS or even switching over to other OS did not solve the issue. To probe more, I refrained from using the hub and connected two of the mentioned devices directly to the left side ports. Still, the problem persists, but the frequency of disconnection is less. Sometimes, the devices gets reconnected, sometimes do not. That is also in a random fashion.
One of my friend having a Y500 model also having similar issue. As you can understand, given the number of USB devices we use everyday, it's hampering my day-to-day activity.
Two years being passed, I am out of warranty. I found that there are so many people around here also having same or similar issues. Presently, my perception is that those to USB are not being able to pull out enough power to maintain +5V and causing this random disconnect. Any idea what to do?

Hi
Welcome To Lenovo Community
We are really sorry to hear about the issue you are facing,
Please confirm if your experiencing same issue when you connect USB device on right side USB port
Do give this a try and let us know
Hope This Helps
Cheers!!!

WRT54GS v7 Disconnects random

I have a problem, my wireless router has been disconnecting randomly for about as long as i can remember. i upgraded its firmware to 7.50.6 and it still does it. Most of the time that it happens it connects right back up within seconds but sometimes i have to reboot it (unplug and plug the power cord). Its getting very annoying because sometimes im downloading something or streaming something and it gets disconnected or when playing some games on my PS3 i lose all my progress and waste 20-30 minutes for nothing . it basically has normal default settings except it has a WPA Personal TKIP password. but everything else is set to default. When it disconnects it disconnects both wireless and wired connections. It happens to the laptop, desktop , and even my ps3 when playing online. Can anyone help me out ? Any help is very appreciated, Thanks.

Since you have already upgraded the firmware of your Router, have you resetted your Router and reconfigure all the settings on it again, If not then Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...
Here are the wireless settings which you can set on your Router, I think this might solve the problem.
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave username blank & in password use admin in lower case...
For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
Click on the Wireless tab
- Wireless Network mode should be mixed...
- Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbours network...
- Set the Wireless channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
For Wireless Security : -
Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
Change the Wireless security mode to WEP, Encryption should be 64 bit.Leave the passphrase blank, don't type in anything...Under WEP Key 1 type in any 10 numbers please(numbers only and no letters eg: your 10 digit phone number) and click on save settings...
Please make a note of WEP Key 1 as this is the Security Key for the Wireless Network...
Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...

X301 WiFi disconnections random

Lenovo X301
I have just purchased 2 x Lenovo X301's Model 2776-LEG and downgraded to XP SP2. The Laptops cost over £1,500 each !.
The Wifi card is a Intel 5300. The laptop connects to my access unit fine and I can use the internet for a good 1 to 2 hours fine without any issues.
At random times after this it will disconnect from the Router / Access unit. I then use the ThinkVantage Access Connections to Connect again to my WiFi and it works again for a few hours, and then disconnects again. I have disabled all Power saving features, in Control Panel, and also on the network adapter as far as I can see. I changed my Dlink Access units, and have just purchased a Linksys Wireless -N wap4400N access unit to see if this helps, but no success still disconnects
I spoke with 1st line Lenovo helpdesk who advised to upgrade .Net Framework to 3.50 which was a big mistake, Laptop went very very slow afterwards , and had to uninstall and keep at .net 3.0. I have also updated Access connections to 5.21 and no difference. I am awaiting Lenovo 2nd Tier support to call me back to see what else I can do.
Q1: Is anyone else suffering from the same issue ?
Q2: I see Intel have a later 5300 driver, and want to know if anyone installed it without any issues, and did it fix the disconnection issue ?
Q3: Why are Lenovo sending out £1,500 laptops that have not been fully tested fully with both hardware and software !!!!.
I have AVG 8.5 Installed, and BeCrypt dat protection software , which in the past have not caused problems with Lenovo T60 and T61 laptops
A very Annoyed customer !!!!!!

I´m having the same problems. I bought this fancy X200 machine for my wife and it´s driving her mad. It disconnects randomly like you describe and I have reinstalled the operating system (XPpro), tried a different router, done the things mentioned above and even changed the IP. I took it to the dealer for a checkup but they could not find enything and charge me for it so now I´m looking at selling this crap(if I can find somebody that I really don´t like) and get her a HP like I´m using.
I thougt I was buying quality but I have only got a crap machine and crap service. If somebody here can come up with a solution or even just an explanation I´d like to hear it.
Good luck to ya all

Frustrated - Can't connect to router with laptop after disconnect, other devices work fine.

I have a RevI Actiontec router with dual antennas(not sure of firmware as I am not at home). My wife can be on her laptop all day, then when I come home with my IPad, it make her lose connection to the router. The router still connects to my iPhone 4 and iPad (both with iOS 6.0.1), but she is unable to connect to router at all. Everything continues to function normally on my Apple devices, so we are still connected to the internet. I have a laptop as well, and when this is happening, both of the laptops stop connecting, but the apple devices and our Toshiba TV and BluRay players continue to function normally. As a temp fix, I disconnect internet from my iPad and restart the router. It works until we try to run both at the same time.
I am mildly computer literate, though I know little about network setups beyond security, MAC filtering, and other slightly advanced setup stuff.
This is really frustrating and seems to be getting worse. We used it like this in our new house for several months before this started happening.

Also check to make sure neither of the devices are set to use a static IP address.

So it's like I want to continue watching a movie from external drive and then player crashes because my hard disk partitions got unmounted...
I'm wondering if it can happen because disk is underpowered (it's connected only to one USB port because I lost my original USB cable which had two USB plugs). Anyway it would be strange as problem occurs also when disk is 'idle' so then the power consumption is also lower I assume. I can only say this disk was working just fine when used as internal drive. Any ideas?

Your recommendation to check cable was just - a good recommendation I played a little bit with the B connector and disk immediately stopped working. OMG it was so simple ;p Thanks. I have to buy a new cable (I hope the case is all right).
EDIT:
Confirmed with portable mp3 player. Cable (B connector) is damaged.
I just won't delete this thread as it's a perfect example to show that basic stuff and simplest things should be always checked first !
