Modem strong AExt is solid green keep loosing int. signal???

keep loosing internet connection.  ISP says modem is strong.  Have solid green light on AExtr.  happens frequently.  changed modem/A Ext cable brand new still loosing connection.  could Airport Extreme unit be faultering???  please advise.

I assume your Airport Express is cabled directly to a cable or DSL modem? In that case, if the status light is flashing yellow it mean only ONE thing - your Airport Express is having trouble connecting to your internet service provider. It does NOT have anything to do with interference.
When this happens - how do you get it working again? Does it just randomly start working again? Or have you never been able to get it working again?

  • Hp 6700 keeps loosing wireless signal after setting up on new network

    I have just moved the printer to a new location and followed the istruction to set up a new wireless connection. The connection was made and the printer worked fine. But then the next morning it had "forgotten" the new wireless network.
    I reset the network connection and everything seemed ok again, including scanning etc. but then this morning it is printing but not able to connect the scanner.
    It seems to be "forgetting" its settings.
    Any help appreciated.

    Hi there @MiguelFdS 
    Welcome to the forums!
    I read your post about your printer "forgetting" it's wireless settings, since moving to another location. I would suggest for you to try assigning a static IP, which should help stabilize the wireless connections and prevent the disconnections.
    Here is the guide to help you: Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection
    I hope this helps

  • I have an Airport Extreme, it's only flashing amber and won't go solid green. I use my ipad 2 to try and setup the Airport and I keep getting "an unexpected error occured, try again."

    I have an Airport Extreme, the light is only flashing amber and won't go solid green. I use my ipad 2 to try and setup the Airport and I keep getting "an unexpected error occured, try again." I've tried my iphone 4 with the same result. I've tried the utilty on my pc and same result. The airport is producing a great wireless signal and working to all devices. I really just want to get in and set the password.

    I have reset several times with no success.
    When you did those resets, did you continue to hold in the reset button until the status light blinked several times?  If you didn't, then you didn't do a full reset.
    Here's what I do to reset an AirPort base station:  I unplug it, press in the reset button, then, while continuing to hold in the reset button, I plug it in.  (Yes, doing this can be easier for people with more than two hands!)  I then watch the status light and wait until it flashes rapidly several times.
    I have a Time Capsule that I couldn't configure at one point.  To recover from that I had to unplug it for many hours.  You might try unplugging your unit overnight.
    By the way, you've been misled by poor field labeling on this forum into typing a large part of your original message into the field intended for the subject.  In the future just type a short summary of your post into that field and type the whole message into the field below that.

  • I am connected to a time capsule both wirelessly and through ethernet...and state of the time capsule is solid green...the internet however doesn't work...The internet works fine when directly connected to my macbook pro but it won't work through the tc

    I have deleted time machine preferences...restarted the modem a bunch of times, restored time capsule to it's original settings...after I first set it up in Airport Ulitity its shows a page quickly that states there is a internet problem, but the page quickly goes away before I can read what it says exaclty and states the internet connection problem is resolved...
    However it's not resolved, I'm also having trouble doing a back up to my time capsule...I recently purchased a new macbook and retrieved/restore what was on the time capsule to the new computer...that worked fine...wireless worked fine...however when I tried to back up the new macbook...it would faii stating that there isn't enough room on the TC to do a back up...
    I didn't end up keeping the new macbook, I was just using it/trying it out while my current macbook pro was being repaired (logic board)
    Ever since I got my current macbook back from repair...my backups have failed due to their not being enough space to perform the back up...in the past the back ups would happen and old back ups would be replaced...
    I think this has to do with my current computer having a new name after the repair..."Adam's macbook pro 2" vs "Adam's macbook pro"
    The internet was working fine wirelessly through the TC a day ago, but it wasn't allowing my other laptop that was connected via ethernet access to the internet...I had a self assigned IP address error then...I don't have that problem now, but it's not transmitting internet at all...even though it's in a solid green state.
    I have no problem completely wiping out my TC including the previous back ups on it...just don't know how to go about it...I have restored it to factory settings a bunch of times and created the network from scratch...just hasn't fixed the issue
    Is there more prefences files I should delete

    If the modem is also a router, either use the modem in bridge and run pppoe client on the TC.. that is assuming ADSL or similar eg vdsl. If it is cable service.. and the modem is a router, then bridge the TC.. go to internet page and select connect by ethernet and below that set connection sharing to bridge.
    Please tell us more about the modem if the above gives you issues.

  • How can I get my Mountain Lion more stable on the internet? It keeps losing the signal. Lion is solid as a rock on my other Macbook using the same router.

    I downloaded Mountain Lion on my Macbook Air, and it works without a hitch except for internet connectivity. It keeps losing the signal. My Macbook using the same connection is solid as a rock and never loses the connection. Is there something I can do? Since my Macbook works weell under exactly the same conditions and if memory serves so did my Macbook Air with Lion before I downloaded Mountain Lion, none of the usual fixes seem to apply.

    I have the same problem, I think.  I dont lose wifi signal, the mba stays connected to the router the whole time.   Pings also seem unaffected by this problem.  The problem is that web pages seem to load intermittently, in other words, it loads a page in 2 minutes.  It loads:
    the first 25% in the first 5 seconds
    the next 25% in the next 50 seconds
    the next 25% in the next 5 seconds
    the last 25% in the last 50 seconds
    Its quite annoying considering this can be as simple a page as goolge search results or even google.com.
    I thought it was my ISP and i even made a big racket about it, switched ISPs and I have the same problem.
    With the previous ISP I had a cisco router.  This new ISP supplied their own modem/wifi.  That doesnt seem to be the problem.  
    Im thinking its a config issue on my mba.  I have the latest updates to ML.
    Any ideas?

  • My .5tb Time Capsule's orange light is flashing. The internet and everything utelse is working fine, and I'm all backed up, so howcome it doesn't show the solid green light? What should I do?

    The orange light has been flashing for a couple days, and even if I unplug everything (Time Capsule & modem) and plug it all in again, still the flashing orange light. I'm sure it should be solid green. The internet connection seems to be working fine, so I'm wondering what's happening. What should I do?

    I don't think Apple will want it.. you can sell it on ebay etc.. but it is not worth a lot.
    Your TC needs a new power supply but it is now uneconomic to fix them. Apple do not supply any parts for their repair network.
    If you want to repair it yourself you can ..

  • Solid Green/Red Playback Monitor

    I have just upgraded from CS4 to CS5.  I also just purchased a new Sony NEX-VG10.  I'm finding with the new camera that I occasionally get a clip that will not play properly in the monitor and it displays a solid green or red screen.  Sometime a clip with this problem will play the associated audio, others will not.  But I have found that it is very consistent in how each bad clip plays.  In other words the same clip will always display the same symptoms.
    In a few cases a clip of say 30 seconds duration may play for 5-10 seconds normally, then it goes to red screen with no audio.  If I edit out the bad part and keep the rest there is no indication during playback that there was ever a problem with the remaining portion of the original clip.  But nothing I have tried will work to save the bad portion of the clip.
    These are AVCHD files with .m2ts file extension.  I've tried a test project with some older .mts files shot on a Cannon and I'm not finding any of the green or red screen problems.  And I don't recall ever seeing that problem with CS4 either.  When I place 10 clips into the same sequence on the timeline there will be a solid yellow render bar, including above the bad clips.  I can tell right away which clips are bad because the thumbnail picture in at the start of the clip will be solid red rather than showing the first frame.  I've tried rendering the timeline but that makes no difference.  I have tried opening just the bad clip in a new project and get the same result.
    If anyone has any ideas for what I might try to reveal the root cause of this problem I would really appreciate hearing them.  Could this possibly be a memory card problem??  When I play the video back in the camea all the clips play fine.  Perhaps something is being corrupted in the process of getting the video onto the computer??
    Could this possibly be a hardware problem of some sort, in which case I will ask over in the hardware forum??
    Thanks

    I played with it some more last night and found something interesting.  First off, I've only seen the green screen once that I can recall.  Red seems to be the most consistent indication of a problem.
    The software that came with my camera has a built in tool that I didn't find before.  It will analyze the clips you have downloaded to look for problems.  Turns out that when I run the analyzer it identifies the same clips that show up red when I import them to PPRO.  So the problem appears to be something going wrong in the process of getting them from the camera to the HDD.
    I will need to experiment with moving more files between the camera and the computer to see if I can find the cause of the problem.
    Thanks for the comments.

  • Linksys E1200 patch 2.0.05 build 2 Mar 28, 2013 - still keeps loosing Internet connection

    Hi Guys,
    Anyone with the above issue - suddenly now my internet keeps loosing connectivity.
    Is it the ISP fibre issue or the cisco linksys e1200.
    Any feedback appreciated.
    many thanks in advance
    francis

    To properly isolate on which device is not working properly is to disconnect the router from the setup and connect your main computer directly to the modem (via Ethernet cable). You can observe the internet connection through the modem for at least 24 hours. If you find that the modem is working fine (stable) then the problem is with the router. So what you can do is reset the router (pressing and holding the button down) for 15 seconds and power it down for also 15 seconds. You re-configure the internet connection on the router after that. Set the wireless settings, too, like change the SSID, set the channel to something else and make sure that wireless security is enabled. You use WPA2 for wireless security on the router.

  • Technicolor tg587n v3 Nothing but a solid green Eco light

    Hi all.
    Woke up this morning to all indicator lights on the router being blank except the Eco light being a solid green.
    I have tried a couple of standard resets and a couple of hard resets via the small pin button on the router with all cables plugged and unplugged with no avail.
    Did read on another forum that the modem may be dying/dead.
    I have had this router for a couple of years now and hasn't given me any major issue.
    But looks like it might be time for a replacement.
    Any help from the community would be great. Thanks in advance.

    You could be right, it might be on its way out as several other posts suggest. I would give support a call on 132200 just in case the problem is on their end. https://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/Modems-Hardware/Eco-light-is-the-only-light-on-technicolour-tg587n-v3/td-p/88708

  • AirPort Extreme  802.11n WiFi is blinking amber after changing from cable to DSL.  Everything works well; but light used to be solid green.

    I changed from cable to DSL yesterday.  Technician connected the new modem and all is working excellently, except that the light on my AirPort Extreme which used to be a solid green, is now blinking amber.  I know this is not right, yet everything else is working well.  What's wrong and how can I fix it?

    We need to do some troubleshooting to find out why the amber light is blinking, and to do that we need to know what operating system you are using on your Mac or PC.
    If you have a Mac, and are not sure what operating system it is using, click the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen, then click About This Mac. Post back with the OS X Version number that you see there.

  • HT4600 Airport Express light is solid green but I can not get on the internet.  Any clues as to what is wrong?

    Airport Exopress light is solid green, but I can not get on the internet.  Does anyone have a suggestion how to fix this?

    Would you please provide some more information about your current network so that we can help you? For example, is your AirPort Express the only router in your current network configuration? That is, is it connected directly to a broadband modem or to another router upstream of it? Regardless, what is the make & model of this modem?
    When changing network equipment or when setting it up for the first time, it is always a good idea to perform a completer power recycle of your networking equipment. Please check out the following AirPort User Tip for the details.

  • Have connection to base station, solid green light but no internet ??

    Hello,
    At my wits end. I have a a brand new Airport Express, a brand new Dell laptop running Vista Home Premium and an older model Westell Wirespeed DSL modem. Although I have a solid green light on the Airport base station, and have no problem communicating and printing wirelessly, I cannot connect to the internet. All indications from the Airport Utility show a normal connection with a signal strength of 'very good' to 'excellent'. I configured Airport to DHCP, which is what my ISP (Verizon) provides. Sometimes upon startup, my computer first tries to connect to an 'unknown network' and I have to manually switch to the Airport network I created. I've been through this at least half a dozen times, resetting the modem, the base station and re-setting up the network but no luck getting on the internet so far. What am I missing here? Thank you!

    If anyone happens to stumble on this, I solved the issue on my own. The TC/IPv4 protocol on the PC's wireless network properties was set to a static IP address. Once I reset it to dynamic, it worked fine.
