Loss of wifi connect after 3.1.2 upgrade
I recently updated the software on my iphone, and now I am no longer able to connect to (or find) any wifi point.
I tried a restore of the iphone software, but I am still unable to connect via wifi at all. I am able to find the network on my mbp, and have even tried other reliable wifi locations, but not a single network shows up listed.
help?

Quick update:
after a few attempts to restore, erasing all data, and going through DFU mode, the wifi issue still was not fixed.
I did determine, however, that the problem did not occur until AFTER I downloaded the new AT&T carrier update--that took my wifi from 100% working to not being able to pick up my network.
I called tech support, and I have already sent the phone in for repair.
Let's see what happens now.

My i Phone 4s has suddenly started to drop wifi connection after nealy months of near perfect connections?
To restore a wifi connection I have to reset the network settings and restart the phone, this only fixes the issues for around 2-3 mins?
Other quick fixes like switching wifi on and off/ switching to airoplane mode for a few secconds have no impact.
This is really annoying as I am using my data allowence very quickly, and as the phone is continually searching for a wifi connection the battery time has reduced dramatically.
I just wondered if any one else has the same issue, and any suggestions as to how I can fix this.
Thanks in AdvanceReboot.

IMac loses WiFi connection after waking from sleep on OSX 10.8.2
Bought a new mid-2011 21.5 inch IMac this week. It is not re-establishing WiFi connection after waking from sleep. Was happening on OSX 10.7 that it came with, so updated to 10.8.2 and same problem exists.
I am running a mid 2012 MacBook Pro with Retina Display alongside, on OSX 10.8.2 and no problems at all. Cannot work out what is causing the IMac to fail and neither can Apple!
Could it be the Netgear Wireless Router 3 years old? Full signal strength!Me too!
I am on a MAC Pro desktop and I am having the same issues. I go to system preferences and just click the network icon. Then I close mail and when it opens it now sees the network. This is getting very annnoying. -
IMac drops Wifi connection after 10.7.4 update
Hello there,
I am experiencing intermittent wifi connection problems after installing the 10.7.4 update on my 2011 iMac 27".
The symption is that the iMac drop its Wifi connection after a period of time and when that happens the iMac cannot detect any wifi networks in my area (disabling & re-enabling Wifi on the iMac doesn't help). I have to resort to restarting the iMac to revive the wifi interface. Note that my other devices (including my iPhone and my MacBook Air) can connect to my Airport Extreme without any problems.
Is there any "quick-fix" solutions out there that can fix this problem? I want to avoid a complete re-install as much as possible.Possible short term fix:
Same issue. Mid 2011 iMac. Updated to 10.7.4 and wifi dropped. The iMac could see any SSID until it was rebooted. My MacBook Air, iPad and iPhone all fine.
I went to Apple tech support and like others was faced with a slippery resistance to the idea that this was anything to do with 10.7.4.
Eventually it was suggested I reinstalled Mac OS (switch off, switch on with cmd and R keys held down. Then follow the process. I wasn't hopeful but was compliant. Imagine my joy when, on coming back to me my iMac asked if I wanted to update to 10.7.4. Of course not!
So reinstalling Mac OS takes you back to 10.7.3. So far so good. Will keep you posted.
Still hoping fpr a proper fix from Apple but they don't seem to be taking seriously
in contrast just updated Omin Group's Omniplan (BTW this is great software for the Mac, check out their offering if you haven't). The update notes:
"It seems as if our fix to the Task: Schedule Inspector in 2.1.1 actually caused more widespread crashes. We've rewritten this code in a more robust fashion and have not seen this problem reappear"
Owning and fixing the problem - Apple guys please take note!
good luck

7510 e printer looses wifi connection after each print job;
7510 e printer looses the wifi connection after each print job; only switching wifi off and back on at the printer touch screen makes it reconnect. Tried more or less everything, including downloading updated software for the printer. Wifi router (unfortunately) is provided by internet provider. WPA2.
It sounds like the printer may have an unstable wireless connection.
What brand and model is the router?
Have you tried setting a static IP address? I recommend setting a static IP address as it can resolve a lot of networking issues with printers in general.
The steps to do this are located in step 6 of this document from HP.

Any news on ios 8.0.3 update? Been waiting for it coz of my slow wifi connection after i updated my iphone 5s to ios 8.
I have heard rumours of an 8.1 update for developers. I just found another bug in 10.9.5. I am beginning to think that nobody should touch any update from Apple until they can get their very serious Q/A problems sorted out. This is getting bad.

Try this first. 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.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.

Loss of internet connectivity after upgrading to windows 8.1
Hi, After upgrading to windows 8.1 from windows 8 i am experiencing major problems , loss of internet connectivity for no reason both I.E. and G/CHROME are now taking an age to open there are no virus issues as far as i can see.
I have uninstalled and re-installed windows 8.1 about four times over the past 9 months or so and the same thing happens after all the updates are in it runs like a dream for say 6weeks or so then i get the same faults as described above then i uninstall/ re-install ok for 6 weeks .
I would apprieate any help or advice thanksHi @BMATH
Thank you your query.
I understand that after updating to Windows 8.1 about every 6 weeks you loose wireless connectivity for no reason and the web pages are very slow to open. If you uninstall and reinstall Windows 8.1 it works fine again for about the same amount of time. You have done this about 4 times with the same result each time.
Do you know if there is any changes at that time , perhaps an update?
You stated you do not believe you have any viruses. Just to be sure here are two links that will help confirm that.

Microsoft Safety Scanner
After updating to Windows 8.1 have you checked for Windows updates?
Have you ran HP Support Assistant ?
Here is a link to Troubleshooting Wireless Network and Internet (Windows 8) that may also help.
If the issue should remain please contact HP support for assistance.

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 -
Video Chat: bad wifi connection after OS2.0 update
Hi, I have 4 playbooks, one for myself and three for my family living oversea. I bought three playbooks for my family for video chat. It worked fine (except huge e-mail problems=another issue) until I updated to OS2.0 one month ago. I have following problems after OS2.0 1) Video chat program cannot always on to wi-fi and to receptible the incoming calls. When I know I am receiving or calling, I have to restart playbook or / disconnect wifi and connect again to establish the wi-fi connection for the Video chat. (while I am having this problem I can use internet without problem) 2) When I was in the older OS before OS2.0 it did not have this problem. Once established the wifi connection, it does not disconnect wi-fi so soon like this new OS2.0. I need help for 1) Is there any way to solve this problem? for 2) I'd rather go back to my old OS system. I searched every where for the old OS (OS1?) but I could not find it. Please let me know how to go back to the old OS system. I appreciate your help. Thank you!
You can't, not without hacking it anyway and we don't go there.
There's just over a million playbooks working fine on 2.1 so I would look elsewhere for your problem. Try reinstalling 2.1 latest vis desktop. -
No automatic wifi connection after mavericks upgrade
I'm using a Mac Book Pro Retina 15" (Mid 2012).
After upgrading to Mavericks the Mac is not connecting automatic to the wifi after restart or sleeptime.
It takes about minutes, to find all the available wifi connections ... after this the Mac is not connecting by its own.
I have to select manual my wifi connection.
This happens as well at any other router and wifi connection point.
Thanks for help!Test after taking each of the following steps. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions. It's important to read the article carefully, as it's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any of the steps, the problem may not be solved.
2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading "Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly."
3. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
4. From the Location menu at the top of the Network preference pane, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.
5. 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.
6. Repair permissions on the startup volume.
7. Turn off Bluetooth and test.
8. Reset the System Management Controller.
9. Reset the PRAM.
10. Reinstall OS X.
