  • Does anyone else have an issue with the iPad loosing wifi connectivity?

    My 6 month old 64 gig iPad keeps loosing WiFi connectivity.  This is a problem since I need it for work to test live video streams.  I keep having to back out and reconnect from the systems panel.  This happens when I shift posting even an inch while sitting down or moving from room to room at home.  I have strong connectivity both at home and at work.  There isn't an issue on any of my other devices and a co worker of mine has the same exact iPad, and he is having the exact same problem.  Is there a fix?

    Go to Settings>General>Reset then select "Reset Network Settings". the device will shut down and reboot. while that is rebooting, unplug the router, count to 10 plug it back in. wait for the network to appear in wifi accounts, and you're good as gold.
    but make sure you know your wifi password or you wont be able to access it. 

  • Ipad 3 keeps loosing wifi connection

    My new ipad keeps loosing wifi connection when downloading documents, apps, etc.
    When i turn of the wifi and download via the 3G, it works fine. And after switching on wifi again, everything seems good.
    Are there anybody that has the same problem with the new ipad?

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • TS1398 Updated to ios6 now lost all wifi connection both iPad and iPhone no longer connects to wifi

    Updated to ios6 now lost all wifi connection both iPad and iPhone no longer connects to wifi

    not much response in here which surprises me...
    Anyway... AS I am still looking for answers, I will share a couple of points that I realised...
    in Airport Utility, I noticed that my iphone MAC address was actually showing as client connected, despite my phone network showing the spinning wheel next to the network name for ever and never actually connecting.
    I am currently testing the router mode in Network to be on DHCP and NAT mode with a range from .2 to .200
    My phone is now connected....
    Everything seems to be ok and happy so far...
    strange that this router and phone have worked together for at least a couple of years, the phone works everywhere else, and all other toys connect to my WIFI just fine. the list is as follow:
    airport extreme
    Zeppelin air
    2x apple tv
    2 ipads
    iphone 4s
    2 mac
    1 pc
    I have litterally just hard reset the router with a pin just now as a last resort... same...
    I will leave the router as DHCP & NAT until a potential firmware or OS update...

  • HT4628 iMac looses wifi connection

    My iMac (OS 10.8.5) looses wifi connection every once in a while. I go to Network Diagnostics, press all those Continue buttons, at some point it sais "Your Internet connection appears to be working correctly" and the Internet connection is being restored right at this moment. It can happen 2 or 3 times a day or may not happen for weeks. I have seen this with three different routers, moreover, I had this problem in a different place with a different iMac (OS 10.6 again with different routers). Its annoing. May be there is some simple thing I just don't know? Thank you.

    Perfect it has been working fine ever since you posted the update 3 months ago.  UNTIL to day i am having the same problem my imac randomly disconnected from the internet while i was watching youtube.  when i went to the wifi icon in the top bar it searched and nothing! logging in/out doesnt help the only fix is to restart any advice?

  • Imac keeps loosing WIFI connection

    Hi all,
    I loose wifi connection most of the time (but not all the time) at around 18:00 pm !?!, very strange !
    I have no neighbors and no houses close enough to interfere with my wifi.
    After loosing connection I do: Syst. Pref - Network - unblock modification with password - Help me - Diagnosis then choose my wifi
    and it starts working again for 3 minutes.
    Then I loose connection again and have to go through all the previous steps.  After 4 or 5 times it's all ok.
    What gives ? Can anyone help me please ? Any suggestions ?
    I have to use wifi because my ethernet port and firewire ports both stopped working and Apple says I have to take the machine for repair.
    Thanks for any help.
    OSX 10.9.4

    Please test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    Take the applicable steps in this support article. The Wireless Diagnostics program 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 2
    Disconnect all USB 3 devices. If you don't know which are USB 3, disconnect all USB devices except keyboard and mouse.
    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. If you find that Wi-Fi works better with Bluetooth disabled, you should use the 5 GHz Wi-Fi band. Your router may not support it; in that case, you need a new router.
    Step 4
    Open the Network pane in System Preferences and make a note of your settings in the Wi-Fi service. It may be helpful to take screenshots of the various tabs in the preference pane. If the preference pane is locked, unlock it by clicking the padlock icon and entering your administrator password. Delete Wi-Fi from the service list on the left by selecting it and clicking the minus-sign button at the bottom. Then recreate the service by clicking the plus-sign button and following the prompts.
    Step 5
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Step 6
    Reset the PRAM.
    Step 7
    Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
    Step 8
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.

  • WAP200 looses wifi connectivity in irregular intervals

    We currently have ~15 WAP200 accesspoints distributed over 4 buildings. Random devices seem to go unresponsive at irregular intervals (web interface still works, clients see a signal, but cannot connect). Rebooting the device solves the problem. User authtication is solved via a radius backend (freeradius), although I highly doubt this is causing the problem since the radius server does not recieve any requests from "broken" accesspoints.
    Configuration is WPA2 - Enterprise, only 1 SSID, Power is via PoE
    Unfortunately it isn't possible to reliably reproduce the problem. Anyone else having this problem?

    Yes, I have only one WAP200E (with PoE) and it pressents the same issue. I have it configured with open security, 1 SSID, I mean with the simpliest configuration and it still looses wifi connectivity. It presents the same sintoms:
    web interface still works, clients see a signal, but cannot connect
    I even updated FW from 1.2 to 2.0.0.27.
    Attached is the actual config

  • HT201653 after downloading 8.1.1 I have trouble connecting and keeping wifi connection on ipad 4

  • TS1398 I updated by ipad to ios 6 today and when I connect to my home network, it brings up the apple page with Log In on the top bar then my ipad looses WIFI connection. How do I resolve this?

    I installed IOS 6 today. it cannot connect to my apple account. It keeps loosing the WIFI connection. EVerytime I connect to WIFI, it loads the apple webpage and looses the connection again. How do I resolve this?

    This seems to be the best working option (while not 100% success):
    From Demo:
    Try this.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Just connected a Linksys plw400 extender to my wifi network & IPad 2 looses Wifi connection

    Just connected a linksys plw400 to my wifi network and now my ipad2 can see the network but cannot connect.  When I disconnect the linksys plw400 my IPad2 will connect albeit a weak signal which is why I bought the extender which works fine with my Dell laptop and Galaxy S3 can anyone help me with this issue?

    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

  • Loosing wifi on the iPad Air

    Loosing wifi for a time on my iPad Air while still receiving wifi on my iPad Two?

    Hello Pennyspain22
    Try out the troubleshooting steps in the article below. Start with forgetting the network that the iPad auto connects and then rejoining it. You may also need to reset the network setting on your iPad.

  • Computer looses wifi connection followed be error message.

    Computer looses connection.
    I have a MacBokk Pro and both iPad and iPod 3rd Generation on the same network.
    The following comes up every so often:
    "Another device on the network is using your computer’s IP address (10.0.0.4).
    Try connecting again later. If you continue to have problems, change the IP address of this computer or the IP address of the other device. Contact the network administrator if you need more information."
    How do I fix this ?
    Regards
    best4x4xfar

    The problem isn't solved after all.
    it just did it again.
    This started recently, I had the network setup for ages.
    I recently added the iPad to the network.
    It's only the MacBook Pro that looses connection to the WIFI. Both iPad and iPod are still capable of browsing the internet, etc.

  • Wifi connectivity issues iPad 2.. Any fixes yet?

    I have issues keeping a connection to my home network.  No, I don't have an airport router (just in case that comes up).  My iPad connects, but loses signal strength, even though I'm only a few feet away from the router, and sometimes just disconnects altogether.  I'm wondering if anyone knows of a fix yet.  I noticed there are quite a few users having similar troubles, but haven't seen anyone actually ask or receive concrete feedback regarding a fix.
