Many times a day i have to disconnect the wifi then reconnect

for some obscure reason, when working, the wifi just stops...
it shows that it's connected in the bar besides the clock. but it just dont work.
the only solution is to deconnect then reconnect...
i look, read and took part in a couple of discussions in this forum, but there is no answer to the problem and people are getting more and more angry.
i dont have time for flaming, i need to get this problem fixed, (allready talked to apple a couple of time about this they did the repair permission trick didnt work)
there is some sort of conflict between SKYPE, TIMEMACHINE, ITunes and or any Adobe product. Could it be some sort of PORT problem?
Apple you need to fix this, please
y.d.

I suffered with this problem for two years,  I replaced my airport exteme with a time capsule, and it improved, but still cut out one or two times a day.   Last week I changed my internet provider (DSL to fiberoptic)  and so far so good.  So I'm not sure it ever was an airport problem  REALLY.   but perhaps this is different.

  • TS1398 One iPod drops WiFi many times per day. Another never does. Why?

    I bought two iPod 4s for Christmas, one for my son and one for my wife. They use them around the house, and my wife's never drops the WiFi signal. My son's however drops the signal many times per day, and it asks for the Wi-Fi password each time. I can't figure out how to make his work like his mother's. How can I make his Apple experience better?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Several times a day my HP Laptop disconnects and reconnects to my WRT600N router.

    I’ve installed a new WRT600N.  (Firmware Version: 1.01.35 build 5_20080115).
    My install was a “Linksys EasyLink Advisor” guided and is generic.  SPI Firewall Protection is enabled.  Security Mode is enabled for WPA-Personal.
    The laptop I use with router is an HP/Compaq 6710b (also new), running XP Pro.  The built-in WiFi adapter is a “G” type (Intel PRO/Wireless 394ABG) with “Windows Wireless Network Connection” enabled.
    Presently I don’t use the “N” capability of the router.  However, I plan buy a 2nd laptop with an “N” WiFi adapter soon.
    The router works well…most of the time. Signal strength is “Very Good”.  However, several times a day my HP Laptop disconnects and reconnects to the router.
    Each time this happens I get a “Linksys EasyLink Advisor” prompt stating “Network Problem!...the connection to the router is not working”.
    After experimentation I realize that most often the connection will restore by itself…or worst case; I can re-detect and restore the connection using either the “Linksys EasyLink Advisor”  wizard OR the “Windows Wireless Network Connection” wizard.
    Besides losing the connection, the most annoying part of this is that after the connection is restored and the “Linksys EasyLink Advisor” wizard message remain indicating: “Network Problem!...the connection to the router is not working”.  
    Suggestions?

    There are many causes for poor wireless connections, and many solutions:
    First of all, give your network a unique SSID. Do not use "linksys". If you are using "linksys" you may be trying to connect to your neighbor's router. Also set "SSID Broadcast" to "enabled". This will help your computer find and lock on to your router's signal.
    Poor wireless connections are often caused by radio interference from other 2.4 GHz devices. This includes wireless phones, wireless baby monitors, microwave ovens, wireless mice and keyboards, wireless speakers, and your neighbor's wireless network. In rare cases, Bluetooth devices can interfere. Even some 5+ GHz phones also use the 2.4 Ghz band. Unplug these devices, and see if that corrects your problem.
    In your router, try a different channel. There are 11 channels in the 2.4 GHz band. Usually channel 1, 6, or 11 works best. Check out your neighbors, and see what channel they are using. Because the channels overlap one another, try to stay at least +5 or -5 channels from your strongest neighbors. For example, if you have a strong neighbor on channel 9, try any channel 1 through 4.
    Also, try to locate the router about 4 to 6 feet above the floor, in an open area. Do not locate it behind your monitor or near other computer equipment or speakers. The antenna should be vertical.
    Also, in the computer, go to your wireless software, and go to "Preferred Networks" (sometimes called "Profiles" ). There are probably a few networks listed. Delete any network named "linksys". Also delete any network that you do not recognize, or that you no longer use. If your current network is not listed, enter its info (SSID, encryption (if any), and key (if any) ). Then select your current network and make it your default network, and set it to automatic login. You may need to go to "settings" to do this, or you may need to right click on your network and select "Properties" or "settings".
    If the above does not fix your problem, download and install the latest driver for your wireless card.
    Some users have reported improved wireless performance by switching from WEP to WPA encryption.
    If you continue to have problems, try the following:
    For wireless n routers, try setting the "n Transmission Rate" to 162 Mbps, and the (wireless g) "Transmission Rate" to 54 Mbps.
    If you still have trouble, download and install the latest firmware for your router. After a firmware upgrade, you must reset the router to factory defaults, then setup the router again from scratch. If you saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.
    Hope this helps.

  • MSN's latest update is crashing Firefox many times per day. When I try to send the crash report to Firefox, it says it has trouble sending the report. Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a setting that can help?

    Firefox is crashing every time I have my MSN email account up. (Since I use it for business, that's many times per day.) It seems to coincide with hotmail's latest update where the email is checked and downloaded to the inbox automatically. Then when it asks me if I want to send the crash report to Firefox, I select yes and it tells me it had trouble sending the report. Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a setting I can change? I can't seem to keep my email account up for more than 10 minutes.
    p.s if you're reading this Microsoft, it's still not bad enough to make me to go back to Internet Explorer!

    Hi,
    /Users/sarahschadek/Desktop/Safari.app/Contents/MacOS/Safari
    Move the Safari app from the Desktop to the Applications folder.
    Restart your Mac.
    That's why you see this:
    When I try to do the updates my computer says it has ready it goes through like it is downloading them then at the end it says some of the files could not be saved to "/" files.
    After your restart your Mac, click the Apple  menu (top left in your screen) then click:  Software Update ...

  • Since upgrading to Firefox 6 my computer has gone from staying up until yearly power failures to crashing many times a day.

    VERY strange. I upgraded to 6 when it came out and it took me quite a few days later to figure out WHY I went from no crashes to nvidia driver crashes MANY times a day.
    It was firefox 6.0.
    I thought my nvidia drivers were out of date. They were one version behind so I upgraded. Crash.
    I thought maybe some kernel interaction might be an issue so I compiled up the latest Linux 3.0.3 and re-installed the nvidia drivers.
    Still crash. Took me a few more days to realize the only thing that changed on my system was Firefox. I usually upgrade without thinking.
    I switched to Opera. Not a single crash in a week. So it is Firefox. I dug and dug and dug on google and found a remote reference to some acceleration added in 6. I disabled it. It still crashes. I have moved back to Firefox 5 and have run all day without a crash.
    My computer at home runs about a dozen web sites, 2 X servers on separate consoles (one for standard browsing and all other functions and one for World of Warcraft gaming - I like to keep them separate), FTP, TeamSpeak server ver 2 & 3, NFS for terrabytes of media files, lets just say many things. Firefox 6 killed me.
    What more info do you need. Sorry I pasted ver 5 Troubleshooting Info, but I need a special request before I run anything greater than 6 on this system again. I will do it if needed but I will need a reboot to prevent all these kernel/video driver crashes.
    ONLY when I run Firefox 6. After some small usage (while watching xine videos or web browsing youtube, playing WoW, or who knows what) the screen FLASHES and I know a freeze is eminent. If I can get one last xterm up I can dmesg and see these messages or if I log in with my android phone via SSH. I still have control of the system just no display. I can reboot there or Alt-Sysrq Sync, Unmount, Boot to restart my system many times a day.

    That is probably rather unlikely. The updates are released ''throttled'' initially to a portion of users so that any major problems will be picked up before everyone gets it.
    It is also run through a staged procedure releasing as six weeks each in Nightly -> Aurora -> Beta versions. Although some code change will occur in that process. The Releases also must also pass automated testing.
    Once the Release happens then we can look for problems showing up from: the crash reporter, the input feedback, telemetry,and comments on this forum.
    Problems do and always will get through but it is unlikely a problems causing Firefox not to start would go unnoticed unless it only affected a vanishingly small proportion of users (nearly 1/2 Billion total),and then it would possibly be because of specific hardware or interactions with other software.

  • Is it ok to charge iphone many times a day?

    i always want to have a full battery, is it ok to charge the iphone many times every day(4-5 times)?

    No.  you should wear the battery down to 10-20%.   Iphone batteries are designed to charge a limited number of times then they will no longer hold a charge.   Charging so frequently will kill the battery early.

  • My Z10 restarts randomly many times a day

    Hello BB Supporters and Users, My Z10 (STL100-1) starts restarting randomly one week ago, it crashed many times a day without any noticeable reasons. It reboots even while it is idle. I have been using my phone for 9 months without any problem. I have tried to put a small piece of paper to keep my battery tightly contacts with power pins but reboots still happen. I also use autoloader to put my phone to original state, remove all removable apps (facebook ...) but reboots still happen. I have searched for solutions in forums but my phone's problem doesnot disappear.  Does anyone have any suggesstion? 

    (1st use here) Mollie this has been happening to ME alot this past month or so---(I have yet to contact tho so I was 'enlightened' by the fact that you HAVE & have yet to get an answer!!!)
    I play a game through Facebook--it crashes frequently.  This is my PC version:
    (HP p7-1226s, 6.00 RAM, 64bit OS)
    Flash Version: 11.7.700.224/MozillaFF, BUT I've recently downloaded Waterfox & currently use this. (I guess a spinoff from FFox)
    which helped me greatly, as far as crashing every few seconds!! I was very skeptical to try Waterfox but upon Forum chatter I decided to try it. YAY!!!!) I suggest that to you, Mollie--Waterfox saved me from the funny farm, seriously!! & I hope I don't get into hot 'water' by writing that!!
    To the powers that BE: I am in unison with Mollie up there & NOW I am getting these pop ups near my game:
    "! (inside a yield sign) Problems have been detected with your Flash Player version" with a green bar trying to show that it is 'filling'. I get msgs on the sides as well, showing the sad adobe face with a saying of general flash crash yet I DO get grey/gray screen&crashes!!. While I KNOW that the 1st warning I rec'd was
    probably an ad--it/they GOT to me because I am actually having ISSUES with it, so I also wonder how far or how deep/what lengths MY Adobe flash has to do with any of these pop ups & DOES adobe warn us on the sidebars of game screens??. & here's is hoping that I can find this danged ?? & answers once I logout!!
    (my apologies if I've infringed upon any1's posts or rights as this is the only place that I could find to post!!)
    thank you very much!!

  • How many times can you clean install leopard on the same computer?

    How many times can you clean install leopard on the same computer? Will the leopard dvd run out of installations and not let you install anymore?

    Hi colman Prez;
    Now that the funny comments have been made, I have a serious question and that why are you worry about reinstalling Leopard with an Erase & Install which is what I take that you mean when you say clean install. In actually fact there is no such thing in OS X as a clean install.
    I am curious because in all the years I have used OS X, I have yet to do an Erase & Install yet.
    I know with Windows that they suggest reformatting and reinstalling at the drop of a hat but that isn't true with OS X.

    This issue can be caused by a corrupt local snapshot index. The procedure below will temporarily disable local snapshots and force the index to be rebuilt.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
    Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
    sudo tmutil disablelocal
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command.
