Lost internet

I bought a time capsule the end of july 2010. Everything was working great until Tonight. I lost my wireless internet. The light on time capsule was solid green but my macbook pro could not connect nor could my iphone (via airport). I shut down the cable modem and time capsule. Waited 10 minutes, turned on the cable modem, waited another 10 minutes and turned on time capsule. Now my wireless internet is working again.
Wondering if this is going to be an ongoing problem with time capsule? Are others experiencing this? Did I resolve my problem the correct way or is there another way that is better? I sure hope this doesn't happen again! I want a dependable connection.

Yes, mine does this all the time. My time capsule connects via a BeUnlimited adsl modem - I can revert to an internet connection directly from the modem rather than the time capsule but the remedy is always a quick unplug of both units and reboot.

  • Lost internet connection while restoring iphone 4S from backup after iOS 6

    Hi everyone..
    I have just updated my iPhone 4S to iOS6 yesterday. It was iOS5.1.1 and was in jailbreak mode before the update.
    I did sync my iphone and did the 'Backup' as well before the update by using my latest iTunes via my laptop.
    The iOS6 update was successful.
    However, the 'Restore from backup' failed.. many times!! Everytime I tried to Restore from backup, i lost internet connection towards the end of the 'restore in progress'  process so it was never complete. I had to pull out the iphone cable or restart my pc every single time that happened. Because i cannot get an internet connection after that happened. I cannot connect to any wireless network, so I had to restart the pc!
    (the iPhone says 'Restore complete' as soon as I pulled out the cable. But phone stays as NEW phone, none of my backup data was restored).
    During the 'restore from backup' attempts (via iTunes 10.7 on laptop), I have tried:
    - Restoring to factory settings first and then restore from backup = tried many times and still failed.
    - Uninstalled Apple mobile device and iTunes and re-installed them = still failed.
    - Switched OFF the phone and hold the Home button while connecting to the laptop. Restored to factory settings, then tried to restore from backup = still failed!!
    - switching to different USB ports on my laptop including USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 = no luck, still failed.
    NOTES:
    -Laptop is on Windows 7 and have had NO such problems so far. I have been using iPhone since 3GS.
    -Internet connection is via wireless router, steady connection.
    -My 3GS was on jailbreak mode before. I bought iPhone 4S and successfully restored from my '3GS backup' without any problem.
    -iTunes 10.7 installed/updated.

    Nevermind.. I just found the solution to my problem.
    I copied the Backup folder into my mate's laptop and did the 'Restore from backup'.
    All is good now.. Only need to re-install my apps, soon after all will be back as per normal!

  • My Macbook Pro 13" lost Internet connection last night. Why?

    My Macbook Pro 13" lost Internet connection last night. It's still out today, but my mother's Windows machine still gets it just fine. What happened to my Mac? The folks at Comcast told me it's a problem for Apple to fix. I'm hoping someone here can give me some insight.

    see if there is anything for you.

  • Upgraded to version 5.0 (4099) but have lost internet radio

    I have recently upgraded my Apple TV software as homesharing was not working.  Now that I have done the update, I seem to have lost Internet Radio .  Home sharing now works though!

    I actually solved this problem by looking at another post.  I changed the location to the US in the settings menu and the ATV updated itself showing the new menu layout as well as Internet Radio which is now working.  I have no idea why changing the location works but it did the trick.

  • Lost internet connection..."A connection time out occurred"

    I've read a number of recent threads blaming Lion for lost wireless internet connections.  I wish my problem was that simple.
    I have an AT&T furnished Siemens SpeedStream 4100 modem connected via ethernet cable to a Netgear 3500 router providing a wireless network.  This configuration worked without problem for over six months serving an iBook G4 (OS X 10.4) replaced by an iMac (OS X 10.7) in mid August, Lenovo Thinkpad (Windows 7), iPhone 3GS, and occasionally a MacBook (OS X 10.5) and a MacBook Pro (OS X 10.6).  Then last week my iMac lost internet connectivity and displayed a dialog box saying:
    "Could not join NETWORK NAME.  A connection timeout occurred."
    At the same time, my iPhone lost its WiFi connection to my network, and could not reconnect; and the Thinkpad could no longer find my wireless network.
    Thinking the problem was with the Netgear router, I substituted my 6 year old Apple Airport Express in the same configuration, but with a different wireless network name.  (I had used this network setup successfully for over five years before replacing the Airport Express with the Netgear router in February.)  The Airport Express network worked on both computers and my iPhone for a couple of days before I again lost internet connectivity exactly as I had with the Netgear router.
    I called AT&T, thinking the Siemens modem must be at fault, since a problem with that one device seemed more likely than successive failures of two different routers within a few days of each other, or a simultaneous problem with a Mac, PC and iPhone.  AT&T said their modem checked out problem free.  I have now connected my iMac directly to the Siemens modem with an ethernet cable and have a problem free wired internet connection.
    I need my wireless network.  Any thoughts on what happened to my WiFi?

    AppleSince86 ... we have this same problem with a wired version of 802.1x
    It appears if a user updates their password  (perhaps their login screen prompts this to do this)... the underlying eapolclient will still use the old outdated password to reauthenticate upon the next x min refresh interval.
    This will basically kick the user off line.
    Two things could really improve this process:
    1)   When the operating system reauthenticates for network access... use the absolute most current version of a users password
    2)   Timeout handling seems much more wonky in 10.7 / 10.8 ... could probably shorten all of the timeouts up a great deal... no need to wait 30 seconds error out... in reality... if you haven't heard back in 5 seconds, you're not going to. 
    Unfortunately, I haven't found any configuration files to control this from our end... it appears to be the compiled behavior of the apple code

  • HT4569 In case of lost internet connection during mountain lion download from app store, do i have to start over?

    In case of lost internet connection during mountain lion download from app store, do i have to start over?

    How do I speed this up.  I have a fast internet connection but this is obviously not right. 
    The speed of the downlaod is dependant on the speed of your Internet connection. "I have a fast Internet connection...," doesn't actually mean anything unless you provide some numbers.
    I have a cable Internet connection with 32 Mbps download speeds, but if you have DSL, you would probably be limited to 1.5 Mbps. Some would call both of these connections "fast," but obviously one is faster than the other.
    What is the speed of your Internet connection?? Don't say, "fast."

    Already purchase and sign. Lost internet data...aaaahh... .error - "We could not complete your purchase.The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed".

    Update: i spoke to a very knowledgeable applecare representitive who walked me thrue the process, we were trying to figure out what exactly was preventing Mountain Lion from installing & (after a process of elimination) it turns out you need to be log in as an Admin to download it, we also made sure everything was up-to-date. Downloading Mountain Lion took about 40 minutes (with roadrunner high speed internet, DSL might be a bit slower) once it was downloaded the installation process was very intuititive with just a few clicks and about 35 minutes i had the latest Operating System.

  • VLAN assistance, tagged port lost internet

    I'm working on getting a new building set up that will be connected directly to our current building but we need it separated with its own VLAN.  I've created the VLAN in all our switches and untagged all the ports to the new VLAN for the switches that will be in the new building and created a sub-interface on our sonicwall for the VLAN.  Our main site will continue using the default vlan.  I tried tagging port 1 on our LAN switch which goes to our sonicwall but we immediately lost internet connectivity for our main site. Could I be missing something here? Do I need to create sub-interfaces for the default vlan now that we have more than one traversing the sonicwall?

  • Lost Internet after firmware update!

    I have use this router some years, and I have no problem, then I have made an Firmware update, and now sometimes I have lost internet, not connection but only Internet. Can I get a default firmware or where is problem?

    I have also had problems connecting to the internet
    I upgraded my WRT54G version 2 router's firmware to 4.21.1 last week, taking the opportunity to upgrade after the area I live in suffered a temporary power cut, which somehow caused my router settings to reset, even though the router was not switched on at the time.
    Since upgrading I can connect wirelessly to the router, but I cannot access the internet via wireless. I am using exactly the same settings as I did before the upgrade and also made a backup of these settings after the upgrade, but every day I attempt to connect wirelessly I lose my net access again (but by restoring the backup settings - the very same settings already held by the router - I regain my net access, but then the next day I have to repeat the whole process.
    Yesterday I tried disabling the wireless security, which allowed me to access the net again, but soon as the security is re-enabled, the problem reoccurs.
    I have a laptop, a desktop and 2 PS3s connecting wirelessly via the router and have had no problem with any of them until this upgrade. I have just reapplied my wireless settings & will try again tomorrow and will attempt using a wired connection and post an update as soon as i'm done.
