Lose internet connection after few days.

I have a Linksys Wireless router WRT54GL. And it was working fine, and then today it wouldn't allow access to the internet though wired or wireless. The only way for me to get it to work again is to reset to factory default. The only thing I change from factory default is the wireless connection. Other then that every thing is basicly kept the same. I just make it WPAP with TKIP and a WPA shared key. Now that connection till works, but the router just won't give access to the internet. Wireless or wired, it just won't give it out till I reset the factory default. Any insight would be great. Thank you! Jeremy.

Well it did it again when I woke up today. I looked at the status before restoring factory default's and it showed the IP address of my ISP, and it showed the domain name of my ISP. My ISP uses DHCP, so I tried to renew it before restoring default, but that didn't work ether. Let me try to think, I got my high speed on a Tuesday, and from Tuesday to Friday it worked fine. Friday I got my Vonage router, then this all started to happen. Do you think my Vonage router might have some thing to do with this? Any help would be greatly loved! lol Thanks

  • WRT350N, Loses Internet Connection after several days of working.

    My WRT350N worked fine for 4 days after instalation then stoped communicating with my Linksys modem.  I returned my first WRT350N to Best Buy after a day of troubleshooting, and several calls to Comcast, my cable  provider.. Assuming I had a bad router I got a replacement, and after 3 days the replacement router did the same thing, losing its internet connection.  I found it pecular that I could connect to the router. it looked like it was connected to the modem, but would not make an internet connection, even after restarting my Linksys BEFCMU10 Cable Modem and router several times.   I could only make a connection if I pluged my computer directly into the modem.  I also check for firmware updates and at the time there were no firmware updates.I returned my second WRT350N to Best Buy requesting a refund and re-installed my original WRT54GS.  Does the latest version of firmware resolve this specific problem?  Judging by the inquires on this forum, it would appear that alot of users are experenceing this same problem.  I really like the Idea of the Storage Link, but I think I will wait till they work out there problems with the WRT350N, before I buy another Linksys product.

    I suffer from the exact same problem you describe ever since I bought my WRT350N 3 weeks ago. I do not have a solution for you unfortunately. Maybe if everyone with a WRT350N with this problem chimes in here, Linksys will take note.

  • MBA loses internet connection after waking from sleep

    I have a new Macbook Air running Mavericks and new 802.11ac Airport Extreme router.
    My problem is that the MBA drops the internet connection after waking from sleep. I tried the solution offered by the OP, but it didn't work.
    In my case, here's what I have to do to get a connection again. I open the Network preference pane, and then choose "Assist me..." and then "Diagnostics". Invariably it will show a green light beside Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Settings and Network Settings. I have 5 bars showing in the WiFi menu bar icon. But ISP, Internet and Server will be yellow.
    When I go through the steps prompted by the wizard, the ISP/Internet/Server lights turn green on the third screen where I select the wireless network I want to join.
    It seems as if it's connecting to the WiFi network when it wakes from sleep, but losing the internet connection?
    Note: I have a new iMac as well running Mavericks and don't have this problem with it.

    The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
    If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

  • I lose internet connection after shutting down

    I lose my internet connection whenever I shut down my desktop. I know it's not my modem or router because laptops, iphones and ipods all have a great signal and connection. This only started happening after I downloaded the latest software update 2 weeks ago. I have a Motorola modem and Apple extreme router.

    last two days exactly the same - it states that my network is not available and yet shows it, I then have to re enter the password, also date had reverted back to Jan 1st, however, there was one bonus, scrole on the mouse now works correctly again!

  • All browsers lose internet connection after awhile

    After upgrading Safari and Java yesterday, all of my internet browsers are losing connection after awhile (10 - 15 minutes), until I disable and enable Airport. However, when the browsers are dosconnected, the airport connection is still ok, because Mail stays connected. The disconnection in the browsers happens randomly.
    So if 1 browser suddenly disconnects, all the other browsers cannot connect either. Mail stays connected. Browsers only connect after I disable and enable Airport
    I tried the following stuff:
    repair disk permission
    maintenance
    cleared java's cache
    rebooted osx a few times
    reseted router

  • Server loses internet connection after creating virtual switch in hyper-v

    On a fresh Server 2012R2 Essentials install, I set up Hyper-v and created an external virtual switch. Connection to the vm is good but Health Report no shows loss of internet connectivity and that the router is incorrectly setup. 
    However, I still have a working internet connection? I worry that the server may not update or allow Anywhere Access at some time. Any suggestions? Thanks

    If Hyper-V virtual switch behaves strange and server is destined for testing, then it's correct and I recomend delete this virtual switch and create it again.
    Here is some issues with internet connection and Hyper-V switch, none of them does not match your problem, but can be inspirative for troubleshooting:

  • Power Mac G4 loses internet connection after going to sleep

    Run down of computer: I have a Power Mac G4 tower, PANTHER OSX. I have wireless internet through our cable company—I use a wireless router. When I am connected to the internet, and browsing the web or something, if I let the computer go to sleep, it loses connection. I have to go back up to the little signal icon and reconnect to my wireless network.
    I suspected it might be a setting through the router, but when my computer was comletely unplugged, and absent from the apartment, the other computer (G5 imac–TIGER) which was having the same problem, suddenly was staying connected even after going to sleep. When my computer came back home and was hooked back up, suddenly the other computer had the same problem again. So, I concluded that my G4 tower was the culprit, and perhaps not the router. We share a wirless network, so it's not surprising that this is the case.
    I know there must be a setting somewhere in preferences or something that is telling the computer to disconnect from network when computer sleeps. I have looked everywhere, and can not figure it out.
    It's really annoying to have to reconnect each time I use my computer. And just to reiterate, I get internet through a cable modem using my airport card, so please answer the question with this in mind as settings are totally different from dial-up. I do not use PPP.
    Anyone experience this problem? Or know how to help?

    Tried that too! Notta.
    This one's really a pickle! Even the Mac specialist at my office was baffled! He suggested shortening the name of my computer...(Jamie Cendroski's computer)...I didn't really understand how this had anything to do with it...but he's supposed to be the expert. He also suggested trashing my keychains and making new ones. I messed around with them, but I don't know enough about this stuff to be bold enough to trash them yet. I'll do a little more research before I do so. I think he might be onto something with the keychains though..?

  • Macbook Air loses internet connection after I close the cover

    This happens all the time. Whenever I walk away from the computer, I'll close the cover for security. When I return, I'll be prompted for my password.
    After I sign back in, on the top, I'll still have my five bars for network connectivity. But if I try to refresh or open a webpage, it will time out.
    If I switch from one wifi network to another, it works. I have a dual-band router with a 2.4g and 5g network running. This problem occurs if I'm connected to either, and switching to the other network makes the internet work. Also, in the case of Facebook, after it times out I can then put in Facebook.com and then it goes back to pulling up normally.

    If it disconnects, you can use the icon in the menubar to reconnect rather than restart.
    If the icon isn't in the menubar then go to System Preferences > Network > Select WiFi on the left > check "Show WiFi status in the menubar"

  • WRT600N (Firmware Version: 1.01.36 build 3) internet stops after few days

    I had the WRT600N for months, it worked great, then it started dropping internet.  you could still ping out but no WWW, if you reboot or ipconfig/renew you cant get a DHCP IP address.    I updated the firmware to the latest version and I still get the error.  does anyone have any idea what this is? 
    hard fix is a pull the power on the router, then its fine.
    is my router defunct!

    Try to reset the router
    1. Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds.
    2. Then, unplug the power keep holding down the reset button for
    another 30 Seconds.
    3. Plug back the power back in, and keep holding down the reset button
    for 30 Seconds.
    4. Release the reset button.
    And then reconfigure it .

    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Use the steps to troubleshoot security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See the steps under the heading "Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store." If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart

  • IMac keeps on loosing internet connection after a few minutes...

    Intel dual core iMac with 10.6.8 OS keeps losing internet connection after a few minutes. Need to put it to sleep and bring it up again. Than it works again...for a few minutes. Other equipment like laptops and iPad using same wifi internet connection and have no connectivity problem at all... What to do?

    Then what I suggest that you do is go to the Finder and select Mac Help in the Help menu. In Mac Help go to Index>C>Connect to the Internet. There you can read all about configuring your Mac, using a modem, etc. After you better understand how all that works then come back with your questions.

  • Apple TV loses WiFi Connectively After waking up from sleep

    My Apple TV, software version 3.0.2 (which gives us 1080P btw), works fine, until I put it to "sleep." Later, when I use the Apple TV, it says: "Not connected to the Internet." In effect, my wifi has disappeared from the memory of the Apple TV, and I have to enter the wifi network's password again on the Apple TV.
    I have had this Apple TV for about a year; the problem appeared maybe one month ago.
    I took it to the Apple Store after Apple Care Telephone Support consulted with engineers. The Apple engineers said it could be a hardware problem, and for me to bring my Apple TV to the Apple Store so they could diagnose it. But at the Genius bar, they put it to sleep and woke it up and it never lost connectivity every time. I suggested that as the Apple Engineers wanted the hardware looked at, why doesn't the Apple Store keep my unit, put it to sleep, and wake it the next business day? The genius bar refused, as the problem did not replicate itself at the genius bar. I told them that trying after 10 minutes wasn't enough. They should try it overnight, as I do (go to bed, try it the next day, only to discover that the Apple TV lost it's connection to the WiFi.
    So for now, my work-a-round is that after a few hours, I have to reenter the password for the wifi. I've been reading threads about similar issues with the iPad, but I don't know if the problems are related (technology wise).
    Bottom line: My Apple TV loses its connectivity after being in sleep mode for awhile. Nothing to do with the iTunes store or 3.0.2 as far as I can determine; if I don't put it to sleep I don't lose connectivity.

    Thank you, Jamie Cox1. However, after rebooting the Apple TV, I lose my 1080P; it goes to 720P and takes about 5 minutes or so to reboot. Then I have to set the 1080P again. The good news is that the wifi returns But it is quicker merely to re-enter my password.
    The problem remains: After a while of having the Apple TV in sleep mode, I lose connectivity to my wifi And while I have a complicated password (upper and lower case letters, numbers, and not a dictionary word), it still is quicker to re-enter my password than to wait for the Apple TV to reboot and re-enter the settings for 1080P.
    Thanks anyway; if I only had 720P perhaps this solution might be enough - but I have 1080P.
    I am working with Apple Care; I have reconfigured my wifi twice with Airport Utility, removed all interference (microwaves, cordless phones), and still the problem remains. Apple Care hasn't solved the problem. The Genius Bar at the Apple Store hasn't solved the problem. Re-booting does find the wifi again, but it takes a long time, and then I still have to re-set the resolution to 1080P. So I just re-enter my password each time.
    And that's my update! I appreciate everyone's suggestions. However, the problem remains: after putting the Apple TV in sleep mode, and then later when I want to use the Apple TV, the Apple TV forgets that it is connected to wifi and I have to re-enter my password, or I can take some time and reboot the Apple TV but then while the wifi returns, the 1080P disappears.
    Thank you everyone for all your suggestions
    But the problem remains
