My iPhone 3Gs keeps disconnecting from my wireless Gateway.

I have an iPhone 3GS and just had my AT&T 2WIRE Wireless Gateway replaced. Now that it is brand new I've noticed that my iPhone doesn't keep it's connection to it like the old Gateway. I have called and talked to AT&T and they've done all they could do I'm sure on their end with oopening security and ports, etc to the Gateway. I am still experiencing the same problem. Now I'm thinking it's my iPhone. Has anyone had this problem and know of any solutions?

Hey thanks for suggestion i thought it worked for a while but it just did it again once i reinstalled it

  • Iphone 5s keep disconnecting from wifi

    Hi,
    I have been having this problem lately and it's only happening on my iphone with the latest version of ios8. I thought it was my router problem and brought a new router but I still see the same issue. What happens is that it keep dropping the wifi signal and then using cellular data. When I try to search for my wifi sometimes it can find it sometimes it cannot. I have an ipad and apple laptop and windows laptop at home using the same wifi but it does not get this problem. When I try to search for the wifi it cannot find any but there are many wifi network in my neighborhood which shows up on my ipad and laptop fine but not on the iphone. Other times it's able to connect to the wifi but cannot get internet or the signal drop and disconnect while on my ipad and iphone it's working fine. The strange thing is when I'm at work the wifi works fine. So I'm really confused if it's my wifi or my phone having the issue. If it's the wifi having the issue how come it work fine on my ipad and laptop but not my iphone? If it's my phone having problem then how come it works great using wifi at work? Could it be due to some setting on my home wifi that is not working well with the iphone? Please help because I end up almost going over my cellular data for this problem.

    Have you tried resetting the network settings.  It will clear the cache.  To reset network settings, open the Settings app and navigate to Settings > General > Reset and tap on Reset Network Settings.  Give it a try and see if it helps.

  • Why does my iPhone 3gs keep crashing?

    My iPhone 3GS keeps chucking me out of everything - apps, web and even typing a text!  Its infuriating, I just get to the end of typing a message and it just goes off and back to the "home" screen.  When I go back in to the text that I typed has gone!!!  If I am googling or on Facebook it does the same thing. 
    Has anyone else had this?  Any tips (apart from sledge hammer) would be gratefully received!!! Thanks!

    Hi gdmacguy - I have done a full restore and it still does it... it constantly chucks me out of texting and using apps - its also stopped my iTunes from playing after about 8 mins which is really irritating when I am in the gym!!!
    Do you have any other ideas of what I can do please?

  • Messages and FaceTime keep disconnecting from my MacBook Pro.

    iMessage and FaceTime keep disconnecting from my MacBook Pro. I’ve never turned either of them off on my computer, but every time I turn them back on, they work for about a week, and then I start getting messages and phone calls on my iPhone and iPad but not on my MacBook. Is anyone else having this problem?

    I'll ask the hosts to move this post to Yosemite.

  • Why does my iPhone 3GS keep powering off into a black screen with what looks like a barcode displayed?

    My iPhone 3GS keeps powering off at any point when between 5 and 50% battery remains.
    I could be in the middle of texting, receiving a call or using an app when all of a sudden the screen goes black and very faint randomly distributed lines are visible from the top of the screen to the bottom. The display looks a little like a barcode. I am then unable to restart the phone without plugging it into a power supply. I've looked on the Internet and cannot find a similair case.
    It is so frustrating and I am continually thinking it will crash at any point.
    Any help or suggestions would be very much appreciated.
    Thanks

  • How can I completely get my iPhone and iPad disconnected from iTunes Match? I don't usually have Cloud access and find iTunes Match to be very annoying.

    How can I completely get my iPhone and iPad disconnected from iTunes Match? I don't usually have Cloud access and find iTunes Match to be very annoying.

    Csoud1 is correct. But if you still want to keep your iTunes Match subscribed and did not want to sync with your iOS devices, do the following:
    On you iOS devices, just go to Setting > Music > disable iTunes Match

  • TS2634 iPhone 3GS keeps shutting down

    iPhone 3GS keeps shutting down apps unexpectantly - restarting or restoring doesn't address the issue - anyone know how can I fix this problem?

    Basic troubleshooting steps outline in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new.  Try each of these in succession until your problem is solved.  If your problem does NOT get solved, you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

  • Time capsule keeps disconnecting from the internet

    My MBP was previously connected to the internet via my sky netgear router, with no issues.
    I have recently purchased a 2TB time capsule and connected that to the sky netgear router via an ethernet cable.
    I then set it up as its own wifi network.  Now it keeps disconnecting from the internet every 5 mins or so.  I know that the internet is fine as I can hook up with my netgear router with no issues.  I cant seem to find any settings to play with.  Earlier posts seem to suggest firmware issues, but since this is a brand new MBP and TC, I can't understand what the issue could be.

    Give us the full blown picture of the network.
    What modem? Is it a router?
    Is the TC in router or bridge mode?
    Can you test with ethernet.. does the same disconnect happen when wireless goes down?
    ie is this a router issue or a wireless issue?
    If wireless can you try setting all that is now auto, to manual settings.. wireless channels.. unfortunately I think wireless mode is no longer accessible. Different names for 2.4ghz and 5ghz.
    There are no new drivers.. That would only be relevant to AC wireless anyway.. or the firmware of the TC.
    But you are running the latest firmware.. 7.7.1 which does mention some (rare) disconnections.

  • HP Photosmart Premium C310a printer keeps disconnecting from my network.

    My HP Photosmart Premium C310a printer keeps disconnecting from my network. I have tried disconnecting my Firewall and AVG virus software, all to no avail. Can anyone help?

    This is an issue I have seen multiple times, and telling people to check their network settings, or to fix wireless settings does NOT address the root cause of the problem.   For those who are English-impared, here is a very clear explanation of what is going on:
    The printer is REMOVED from devices and printers, seemingly at random.    This is NOT a problem with "The printer is not printing", where fixing the network or resetting IP addresses will fix it.   The printer is GONE, and needs to be added again.
    I know networking, and at no time should a loss of connection cause the printer to just be removed from Printers and Faxes, Printers, or anything like that.    If the connection is lost, the connection is lost, but the printer SHOULD still be set up in Windows, just pointing at the wrong place(if the IP address has been changed).
    I suspect that it is more likely that the HP Update software is the culprit, and will test that theory today with a customer who has this problem.    It also seems to be limited to the HP Photosmart line of printers, since the Officerjet line does not seem affected by the bug.  

  • PC keeps disconnecting from home hub.

    Got a very annoying problem, for some reason my computer keeps disconnecting from my home hub. Its got much worse recently and I have no clue what is doing it. Sometimes it can stay disconnected for a couple of hours and when you finally get the connection back it says it cant connect to the Internet. Also my network adaptor cant find my hub but it will find my neighbours even though the hub is just down the stairs from my PC. Signal it good-excellent. There are 2 other computers using the same hub but the are totally unaffected by this.
    Would really appreciate some help.

    from your comments I assume you are using wifi 
    you can try downloading inssider3 (istumbler if MAC) and then run it. This will show the broadcasting networks round about you and their channels including your own. If you then enter your router and change your wireless channel to a free or less congested channel.

  • My iphone 3gs keeps going black and to a "thinking" icon

    my iphone 3gs keeps going black and to a "thinking" icon and will do this for a long time and won't stop till I do a forced shut down.  It's all sporatic as to when it does this.  Plus it's adding pictures to contacts that don't normally have pictures and taking them away from ones who do have them.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  I have iOS 5.1.1 on it still b/c my iTunes won't download the newest verision of the iOS (yes I have the most recent iTunes on my laptop, yes I've tried multiple different times to download too) but I've heard others say not to put the newest iOS on the 3gs b/c it locks them up. 

    Try doing a reset on your iPhone,
    Reset your iPhone by pressing the 'Sleep' and 'Home' button at the same time for about 15 seconds or so. Your iPhone will then go through a reset / reboot procedure and will be ready for use within about a minute.
    Don't worry about doing this as you will not lose data or settings.
    Good luck and do report back.

  • I am unable to stream Netflix to my Iphone or Apple TV, from my wireless router . . . even though I am able to watch Netflix on my WII (also wireless) and desktop computer (not wireless).

    I am unable to stream Netflix to my Iphone or Apple TV, from my wireless router . . . even though I am able to watch Netflix on my WII (also wireless) and desktop computer (not wireless).
    On the Iphone and Apple TV I can connect to Netflix . . . it recognizes me and my account settings . . . and I can veiw all my recent programs and show titles, descriptions, etc..  But when I select one to watch I get a message saying:
    "ERROR A PROBLEM OCCURED WHILE PLAYING THIS ITEM. TRY AGAIN LATER, OR SELECT A DIFFERENT ITEM. GO TO WWW.NETFLIX.COM/SUPPORT FOR MORE INFORMATION. (139)
    Netflix support say there is nothing wrong on their end . . . that it is an Apple issue.  They see the request for the show, the devices are registered . . . but it shows 0 bandwidth to the device.
    My Apple TV did this when I first hooked it up a couple of weeks ago.  Then after a few days started working with Netflix, for no apparent change . . . now doesn't again for the past couple of days (I think that it auto restarted the other night after a virus scan).
    Very frustrating, and driving me nuts!  Has anyone else had and been able to resolve this problem?

    Troubleshooting
    Apple TV2 update one day and netflix is browsing but not launching the actual content (error 139)
    Ipad2 (another ios device) forces me to update netflix if I want to use it and I get the same error 139 on it.
    **** now I have two not ways not working where prior to some update it was fine.
    Nintendo Wii is still working ( mind you running an ancient version of netflix )  Dusted the Wii off and gave it to the kids use.  Now they are happy again...
    PC is also still working ( using some other flash client ) but that's just of interest, we're not going to be watching tv with that.
    My wife's iphone 4s is still working.  Odd.. still ios but for somereason I am not forced to update the version. So basically she could mirror stream up to the apple tv with it.  Nice feature of Ios5.  Later found out it is using 1.4 version of netflix.  The most useful thing out of that is that all 3 of the devices are Ios and it was actually the iphone with the 1.4 version of netflix that still worked!
    I heard from a friend who was on a different ISP he was still working so I took my appletv2 and ipad2 over to my brothers house who is on that same ISP as my friend and both started working.  So the ISP is involved too!
    Brought the appletv2 and ipad2 back to my house hoping it would maybe still work.  No dice   Broken again.
    Searched the appstore for a decent packet analyzer and there isn't really anything.  I was able to sniff the traffic with my PC and also on my juniper ssg5 confirmed that.  Turns out port 80 traffic is actually failing and authorization is not happening.  The other clients do not do this...
    Asked a buddy from work who used to work at the ISP if he could make a call to some one who might actually know what is going on.  He came back pretty quick and said yea they are trying really hard to get the beta patch in from Bluecoat asap. 
    So knowing that it was actually Netflix that changed when it hit 2.0 and in my case the ISP made the adjustment it's pretty safe to say this issue is going to be ongoing unless netflix changes again the way they authorize for licenses.
    So that's the summary of what went right down the troubleshooting path but I'll tell what what didn't
    2 calls to Netflix (useless... waste of time... they are too quick to blame anyone but themselves)
    1 call to apple support (support call was going to cost more than it cost for me to change ISPs)
    2 calls to ISP (through the normal means - regular support number)
    So why is this intermittantly working sometimes?  If you are lucky enough to authorize to an IP address that is not cached they voila you are going to get an authorization / a license to watch the show.  Some people report after defribulating their appletv (reseting, rebooting, dns changes, you name it) they get it working.  Over the past month we all seem to have got it working for some period of time only to lose it a day to two later.
    It's now been several days since the beta patch to the bluecoat and 4 of us who have been communicating on the issue appear to be online all at the same time for those several days and that is a good sign that we might be out of the woods on the issue.
    Hope this turns into something helpful for someone else out there.

  • My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time for no reason every time I put it on silent or just get a Facebook message I have a broken sleep/power button anyone know how to fix this problem?

    My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time the power/sleep button dosent work so it's quiet annoying having to plug it in all the time dose anyone have a fix for this?

    The "fix" is to get the phone repaired.  There's no magic solution for a broken phone.
    Bring your phone ant $149 to Apple for an out of warranty replacement, or find a 3rd party repair shop near you.
