N91 WLAN Connection Issue

Sorry if this has already been answered but I can't find the answer.
I've got an N91 and I'm trying to connect to my private Wireless Router. I've got a 128 bit WEP key but when I try to type it into the phone, I'm only allowed to enter 13 characters. The key is twice this length.
How am I to enter the full key?
Am I missing something here?
Thanks in advance,
P.

Remember that you need to use Tools->Settings->Connection and create a new access point.
- In Data Bearer select WLAN
- WLAN Network Name (ID) type in your WLAN hotspot name (SID)
- Network status (Public or Hidden depending on your router settings)
- Network mode (Must be Infrastructure)
- Security Mode (Enter wither WEP or WPA) I only use WEP
- Go into the Security Settings: Select the Key in use (#1 to #5 and it MUST be the same one as in your WLAN router)
- Authentication type (Must be Open or Shared) Shared Key is more secure. This setting must match the one in your WLAN router!
- Select WEP (or WPA) settings:
- Select encryption type (64, 128 bits) again it must match your router settings
- Select the type of Key in use (I use ASCII since it's easier for me to remember the keys) but it can be in HEX as well. Use the same thing as your router. Enter the key in the box below.
I've tested this in many WLAN networks in the office and at home and never had any problems. I've used all SW versions of N91 since the launch and it has always worked. If you have other questions let me know.
One more thing.
When entering the WEP keys MAKE SURE that you enter the key in the right key number. Each WEP key ins in a different Tab (look below the connection name and you will see #1,#2,#3) use the joystick to select the right key (#2, #3, et c.) and enter the key (ASCII or HEX)
640K Should be enough for everybody

WLAN connections issues

My N97 won't stay connected to the WLAN connection. Owned me when i was trying to download something and it switched to GPRS and took all my credit without me noticing.... Anyone can help?

Sorry to hear that! However you can organise your access points mate! Select "always ask" in your web options. In that way, your mobile will always ask you how you want to connect, even if you lose connection to your WIFI!

Satellite P100-105L: WLan connection issues

i have following problem.
have Satellite P100-105 notes, with XP home. All drivers up to date, connecting via WiFi.
When i connect to internet via IE7/IE6/Mozilla/Opera some times i have just message "waiting for reply from ....." in statusbar, and the page wont load.
If i refresh its ok, or at some pages it just dont work even if i refresh (typically on typo 3 saving document).
1. i have no viruses, no trojans.
2. tryed with IE without addons, allso with IE when i was in "safe mode" of XP.
3. Downloaded latest WIFI drivers, latest bios.
4. when i try it on other notes from toshiba, else model with win vista on IE7, it works normally. Allso when i upload/download huge files, its ok.
5. have legal, and up to date windows XP with SP2
so i can say 4 things:
1. its not caused by signal,
2. its browsing soft independant.
3. it may be not caused by HW error, if it would, large downloads/uploads will fail
4. any other software it is in memory in normal state, its not causing this.
SOMEBODY HELPPP
its very, very annoying.

>When i connect to internet via IE7/IE6/Mozilla/Opera some times i have just message "waiting for reply from ....." in statusbar, and the page wont load.
You said sometimes??? So I assume it does not happen every time while you are using the WLan.
>4. When i try it on other notes from Toshiba, else model with win vista on IE7, it works normally. Also when i upload/download huge files, its ok.
The both notebooks use the same WLan card? If not then there could be a compatibility issue between the router and WLan card
But generally its not easy to say what the problem could be. Did you check of the same message appears using the LAN cable?
Check this!

Satellite L450D-13U - WLan connections issues

Hi,
I use talktalk as my internet provider.
I started to get a intermitent connection and the internet light on the router goes red.Its a d-link router.
3 weeks a vist from a bt tech they now tell me that the problem might be my laptop.
How could this be when it does connect and then drops the connection very iradic.

Hi
You said that the router disconnects from internet. Right?
So how can be this notebook issue? Sorry but I dont understand this
In your case I would recommend checking the router settings.
You should check for the firmware update and should also check if other notebooks/computers connected to the same router would have the same problems.
If you are 100% sure that your router is OK, then you should check the notebooks WLan.
In such case its advisable to update WLan driver

Wlan connectivity issue with E71

Hi,
I am trying to connect my E71 to my NETGEAR wireless DG834GT router and there is this consistent problem of E71 successfully loading the first page but hang on the subsequent clicks. I tried to disable the security setting on my router and it works perfectly.
However when i try to enable back my security with WPA-PSK preshared key, the problem arises. I notice that during creation of access point in E71, when i enter my password for the preshared key, the display always show 4 asterisks despite the fact that i have a 9 character password. Is this a bug with nokia e71 ? How am i going to resolve this ? Any help is deeply appreciated as my main reason for getting a E71 is to surf in wlan with security enabled.
thanks and regards
Andrew

It was basically this:
"In response to your email, I would suggest trying the following steps to connect to WLAN:
1. Menu > Web > Options > Settings > General > Access Point > Always Ask
2. Select one of the available Bookmarks or open a web page of your choice
3. When the phone prompts you to connect to a server, select "Yes"
4. The phone will populate a list of Available Access Points
5. Scroll and look for Search for WLAN
6. Select your WLAN provider
6. Key in any passwords or pass-keys required to authorize you to access the WLAN network
In the event the above-mentioned steps do not resolve the issue, I would suggest switching off any security features of your WLAN router and testing your phone once again or you may also test your phone with a free WLAN network service which is usually available at cafes.
Please take note that you would be required to contact your Internet Service Provider on the details which needs to be keyed in while creating the WLAN access point.
However, in the event that your phone does not work with a free WLAN service or after you disable the security features of your WLAN router, please take the phone to your nearest Nokia Care Point. They will assess if a repair is required and advise if this may be covered under the warranty."
I had already explained to them that all works ok without any security. With network security, no go.
I politely sent this back and have asked them (again.....) to escalate, which they have said they will now do. Please contact Nokia Care with the same issue as the more people that tell them, the more they will take it seriously, hopefully.
They will need your IMEI, software version (type *#0000# from home screen), product code (beneath battery) and details of your router.
Cheers.

N91 WLAN (WiFi) and Bluetooth Issues.

Hi Everyone,
I am having some issues with my new N91. I recently had the firmware upgraded, and the issues have not improved at all. I'm hoping someone out there has faced and solved some similar issues, or perhaps that you can point me in the right direction towards finding a solution of my own.
WiFi (WLAN). Okay, the N91 comes with WiFi built in. I have been able to find networks, and browse the internet on my phone, in Infrastructure mode. It is pretty simple. The problem has to do with encryption.
On my home network, I use WPA encryption with TKIP. The N91 configuration screens give me the option of using WPA with TKIP, but the phone won't connect. I tried changing to WEP on my home network, and configuring the N91 to use that encryption instead, but it also did not work.
Since I use other computers on my network with WiFi, turning off encryption is not an option. I did test the phone and the router with encryption off, it connects.
The issue is, the N91 will only connect to un-encrypted networks. This is fine for free hotspots, but I want to sync with my home PC via WLAN, send email and use the phone via VOIP. I also need to connect to encrypted networks on the road.
Has anyone managed to connect to an encrypted network with an N91? Do you know what specific hardware you were connecting to, and what protocols you used?
The second issue is Bluetooth. I drive a 2006 BMW M3 with bluetooth support. My old phone (Sony t630) connected to the car via bluetooth flawlessly. It shared the phonebook with my car, and automatically diverts calls to the car when I'm driving. I can answer the phone via a button on my steering wheel, which automatically cuts out the radio and allows me to take calls while driving.
The Nokia "pairs" with my car. However, regardless of what I do, it will not share the phone book, nor will it transfer audio to my car's sound system. According to the Nokia documentation, the pairing process requires that a code be entered for the bluetooth device on the phone, and for the phone on the bluetooth device. I cannot set a code in my car (the bluetooth device), since that is not an option. I can set the code on the phone for my car, and the phone then reports "Pairing Complete". Setting a code on the car was not required for my trusty old Sony. Though the N91 claims "Pairing Complete" there does not appear to be any mechanism for activating the car handsfree via the phone, and the car does not automatically take a call if the phone rings while paired. (On the Sony, one can "Send Call" to a blue tooth device, if the device doesn't automatically take the call, or if the pairing takes place after the call has been initiated.)
Does anyone know of a work around to get the phone to pair for audio (I can live without the phone book). Does anyone know of a third party application that will fix the blue tooth on the Nokia to make it work more effectively with my car?
Any information that can be provided on either of these topics will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Dan

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. Starting with the bluetooth aspect of your question. I can't say for sure which profiles the Bluetooth on BMW supports (still researching). I can say that my Sony t630 supports all of the protocols you listed, though I can't say for certain about the "AG" aspects. It lists:
File Transfer
OBEX
Object Push Protocol
Handsfree
Headset
And several others that I don't think are relevant to this particular issue. As I said, my phone lists "Handsfree" not "Handsfree AG". I'm still trying to research what if any distinction exists there.
The important point is that the bluetooth on the BMW isn't wholly defective. It does work with at least one phone. The bluetooth on my N91 hasn't worked with the car, but I have no other hardware to test with. I don't think it is defective either. I believe they both function, I just need to figure out what needs to be done for them to play together.
I think there are two questions that I'd like to find answers to. Has anyone ever modified a bluetooth profile on an N91 (or other Nokia)? Is it possible to add bluetooth profiles that don't already exist on the phone?
As for the point I made about my N91 not connecting to encrypted networks. I am correct to assert that it does not connect to unencrypted networks, though syntactically I shouldn't say "The N91" since it implies too much.
Semantics aside, my N91 can't connect to encrypted networks so far. My research on this site (and others) indicates other users have faced the same issue, and none of those threads came to a resolution that I could find. Searching this site, and others, I had found no documented cases of an N91 functioning on an encrypted network. Since posting (on another site) I have found one user who has had success, but that user hasn't yet responded to my question of how exactly he pulled it off.
In the absense of any evidence explaining how to connect an N91 to an encrypted network, and the prevalence of people expressing difficulty with it; I think it is correct to say "The N91 will only connect with un-encrypted networks."
I'd really like to be wrong on that statement, since I own the phone and I want to connect to an encrypted network. However, I haven't been corrected yet. So, if you can point me to a thread or discussion explaining what settings were used to make a successful connection on an encrypted WLAN of any type, that would be great.
To anyone reading this or helping out, I really appreciate your time and attention. Please let me know if I can provide any other information to help with this question, or on any other topics.

N97 Mini connectivity issues (WLAN & GPRS)

Hello everyone,
I am facing some connectivity issues with my brand new N97 mini.
1- I cant change the "preferred" WLAN access point.
I could surf without any problem at work during the week. Now, at home, I am no longer able to use it. Although I connect through my WLAN, whenever I use a program which require internet connection, I get a message "Connecting through NAME OF THE WLAN AT WORK" and it returns an error.
2- The same happens when I am outdoors. Although it connects with the GPRS, I am not able to use the internet as it says "Connecting through NAME OF THE WLAN AT WORK" and it returns an error.
I would really appreciate your support!
Thanks in advance

Change the accesspoint settings in the apps that need a connection to always ask.

HP PhotoSmart 7510 suddenly has severe connectivity issues

I have a HP PhotoSmart 7510 printer since about 2 months. Initial setup worked like a charm and the printer has been working pretty much perfectly for the last 2 months. Wireless printing, scanning and internet access on the printer (e.g. for Facebook photos) all worked. Just from time to time i would get the occasional (mildly annoying) message on my computer saying "scan to computer is currently unavailable" but it usually worked itself out and whenever I needed it to work, it did work.
But since a few days ago, it has some severe connectivity issues. I didn't change any settings on the printer, router or computer - the issues just started appearing by themselves. I startet getting much more frequent messages on my computer saying "scan to computer is currently unavailable". I noticed I couldn't print anymore, and restarting computer, printer and/or router didn't help at all. The only thing so far i managed to print wirelessly since the problems started were the first 5 pixel rows of an image I tried to print, the rest didn't transmit.
It seems the printer still connects to the WLAN but printing and scanning no longer work, and whenever I try to access a web service on the printer (like Facebook) it says it has no internet connection, even though the WLAN light is lit up (not blinking) and all the wireless status reports say "congratulations, no problems found" and display IPs etc. just like normal.
I looked at the threads "PhotoSmart 7510 connects to router, but not to the web.", "Wireless printer (HP Photosmart 7510) not connecting to network" and "Photosmart 7510 won't connect to Web Services" but they weren't a big help. Activating EWS didn't work because even though the printer showed its IP address to be 192.168.1.3, when I entered this in my web browser it didn't find the printers configuration page.
I tried the following steps from one of the threads:
1. Restore the Network defaults
2. Unplug the printers power cord while it is still on. Leave it unplugged and walk to the router.
3. While the router is still on, unplug the power cord from the router, leave it unplugged for 30 seconds, then reconnect the power cord to the router. Once plugged back in the router should power on automatically.
4. Plug the power cord back into the printer. Once plugged back in the printer should power on automatically.
5. Run the Wireless Setup Wizard to reconnect the printer to your wireless network.
6. Try enabling Web Services.
I followed these steps exactly. Interestingly, even though I had done step 1 and restored the network settings to factory defaults, after turning back on, the printer somehow still had its old settings saved and reconnected to the network.
It seemed to have fixed the problem, the printer finally had internet access again (Facebook app showed my photos) and scan to computer found my PC. But after just about 3 minutes, the printer had lost its internet connectivity again. When opening the Facebook app, it displayed the same error message it did before. And printing no longer worked as well.
So, what is wrong with this printer?! It has the newest software update by the way (I checked during the 3 minutes it had internet access.) My computer is a HP Windows 7 x64 machine (EliteBook 6930p) and the router I'm using is a Netgear WNDR3700.
I specifically bought this printer for my studies at university. In one week i have my exams and in order to study I REALLY need to be able to print some of my course materials! So any help as quickly as possible would be greatly appreciated. Or do you think this is a case for a warranty replacement, considering the printer's really strange and error-prone behavior?
Thanks a lot!

I can assure you that it is not a router issue. It appears to me that it is a driver compatibility with Windows OS. After trying to get to the bottom of this since my Photosmart 7525 was new and reading just about every forum and blog, I have come to the conclusion that the issue must be related to the HP driver itself.
The issue does not seem to affect any Mac systems, and from one forum someone was able to fix it by downloading new drivers compatible with 64-bit systems (which seem to not be affected by the glitch). But that leaves us 32-bit people stuck with the current driver which does not work.
The printer is connected with good signal to the wireless router (no matter who's router it is and what configuration is made). The printer can be pinged from the router and any computer on the network which is not currently being affected by this issue. However, the affected computer fails pings by either request timed out, or destination host unreachable. Pings are successful from the affected computer to any other device on the network. The only way to recover (at least for a few days) is to reboot the affected computer.
Also, from the display on the 7525, the network tests pass without issue. I can also download and print content from the internet with no issues.
Please do a quick google search of this issue and you will see several THOUSAND entries of people with the same request. This is a serious issue that people are having and everything is pointing to an HP problem (not routers, improper installation of software or drivers, etc...). I agree with several other customers that HP should be on the hook for this fix. I will give it another couple weeks, then back to the store for a reliable unit from another competitor (Canon, Lexmark, etc..)
Thank you in advance for escalating this issue to product engineering,
S. Hunn

E72 Wlan Wizard Issue: Icon/Selection disappeared ...

Crossposted from here: http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Eseries-and-Communicators/E72-Wlan-Wizard-Issue-Memory-Full-and-icon...
After my mobile phone automatically switched off while I was trying to check my SMS because of low battery, I plugged it to charger and switch it on again. Upon turning on however, the Wlan Wizard icon/selection has disappeared from start up screen/desktop. When I try to access Wlan Wizard by going Menu > Ctrl Panel > Connect > WLAN wiz., it gave me Memory Full error instead.
I've tried various method available that I can get from here: Turn off and on (it worked when the same issue happened a long time ago but not this time), deleting licenserserv.log to free up space in phone memory (still no Wlan Wiz and still Memory Full error after restart), going back to factory setting and restart but all to no avail.
Following the advice in the thread I posted before, I installed Nokia Suite and updated my E-72 with the latest software. I even try reinstalling for good measure. Still the same thing: no Wlan Wizard icon on desktop/home screen and Memory Full upon Menu > Ctrl Panel > Connect > WLAN wiz.
What else can I do to solve this issue? The attached picture is my phone info using Nokia Suite. Note the red highlight box. Is it supposed to be so?

You need to try the *#7370# reset. It should not touch anything on the memory card but you can remove it as a precaution. Do 2 backups, one with everything and the oter with only your data. Sometimes when you restore all the settings as well it brings bck the problem.
After the reset, try the phone to make sure everything is working fine before restoring your backup. If the problem comes back after the restore then reset again but this time use restore using the data only backup.

Thinkpad X220: bad wlan connection when docked and lid closed

Dear forum
I use a Lenovo ThinkPad X220. I have no trouble with the wlan connection when i use the notebook alone. The wlan connection is also stable when i use the notebook plugged in the dockingstation with the lid open. But when I use the notebook plugged in the dockingstation with the lid closed my wlan connection drops regularely to about 2 Mbps and gets very unstable.
The ThinkPad uses the Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 wlan network controller:
$ lspci | grep 6205
03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6205 [Taylor Peak] (rev 34)
The network controller uses the iwlwifi driver, that comes with the current linux-firmware package:
$ pacman -Ss linux-firmware
core/linux-firmware 20150206.17657c3-1 [Installiert]
Firmware files for Linux
I didn't change any options of the kernel module, everything runs in default mode:
$ modinfo -p iwlwifi
swcrypto:using crypto in software (default 0 [hardware]) (int)
11n_disable:disable 11n functionality, bitmap: 1: full, 2: disable agg TX, 4: disable agg RX, 8 enable agg TX (uint)

fw_restart:restart firmware in case of error (default true) (bool)

wd_disable:Disable stuck queue watchdog timer 0=system default, 1=disable (default: 1) (int)
nvm_file:NVM file name (charp)
uapsd_disable:disable U-APSD functionality (default: Y) (bool)
bt_coex_active:enable wifi/bt co-exist (default: enable) (bool)
led_mode:0=system default, 1=On(RF On)/Off(RF Off), 2=blinking, 3=Off (default: 0) (int)
power_save:enable WiFi power management (default: disable) (bool)
power_level:default power save level (range from 1 - 5, default: 1) (int)
fw_monitor:firmware monitor - to debug FW (default: false - needs lots of memory) (bool)
At first I thought, the problem could be caused by the KDE power saving settings. I changed the settings, so nothing happens when I close the lid (no hibbernation or screen lock or something like that), but without success (the wlan connection is still unstable under the described circumstances).
Also dmesg shows nothing that points out a problem (as far as I can see):
$ dmesg | grep iwlwifi
[ 19.688522] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: can't disable ASPM; OS doesn't have ASPM control

So I have no idea where this strange behaviour comes from (only wild guesses: buildfactor, antenna orientation,...).
Any help would be really appreciated.

hmmm...
how about checking both your wired and wireless nic drivers in device manager to make sure that the "allow computer to turn off this device to save power" checkbox on the power management tab is deselected.

5800,Wlan connection appears as 'unknown', however...

Hi to everybody!.
I have an issue with wlan connections. I defined a new access point in wireless connections, and I put it into the 'internet' destination. The access point is saved as WLAN_XX, and works perfectly.
As soon as I disconnect it, and click to find wireless connections, something rare happens. When there is high signal, the connection appears as 'known'. However if there is low signal, appears as 'unknown'. Therefore I have to configure it again as a new connection (retyping the wep password),which as a consecuence, is saved as 'WLAN_X01)'.
I updated the firmware from 31.0.101 to 40.0.005. A saved connection always showed as 'known' (even when i had not enough signal to connect) when i used the old firmware (31.0.101). I don´t know if it´s a new feature or a bug or how it´s solved, someone knows? Thanks.

This is normal. You can delete this access point from the settings and re-save it.

Re: Satellite M50-216 - WLan connection keeps disconnecting

Model M50-216
I can connect to my hub no problem, and as a comparison I have another Laptop (dell) that never eperiences the problems I get with the Equium. Here's what happens.
I connect no problem, then it may work fine for 5 mins or an hour, then it disconnects, I can still see the network and it will happliiy connect up again. I have tried at my friends house with a different router and the probelm remains, so its not a router problem.
From a configuration viewpoint, I have windows managing the network connection.... ANY IDEAS??

Did you try to update the WLan driver and the BIOS?
In many cases this is the key to solve such WLan dropping issues.

N95-Continuous "Create WLAN connection in offline ...

Hello All,
I tried using the search and could not find anything on this.
Up until now, i haven't had a problem like this. Upon turning on the phone, i keep getting the "Create WLAN connection in offline mode?" prompt. When i hit "NO", my phone resets! When i hit "YES", sometimes nothing happens and other times, the phone freezes up and then resets.
I have WLAN scanning set to off by default. I held down the options button to check for any apps running in the background that may be causing this, but none are open. (Just the "Standby" icon is present.)
Again, this just started happening. I have recently installed programs like Fring, Shozu, and TruPhone. I thought either Fring or TruPhone may have been the culprits so i removed them both, but the WLAN prompt --> restart issue is still present.
I am curious if others have experienced this. My phone is still V 10.0.018.
Please help! Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!Message Edited by adamyuki on 14-Jul-200704:50 PM

I haven't had this happen to me, and I haven't seen any other reports in the forum.
One thing you can try is to reset the phone using the instructions you can find in this post :

However please be aware that doing so will wipe ALL the data from your phone such as information in your calendar, contacts and so on.
In order to save your data you can use the PC Suite application to save and restore the data from your phone - this software can be found here :
http://www.nokia.com/pcsuite
One thing to note is that as part of these diagnostics, you should NOT restore any backup or install any software on the phone as you could be putting the problem back onto the phone.
If this doesn't work then it's likely you have a hardware fault and you should approach your local Nokia Service Centre to get your phone fixed.
Hope this helps.
Please let me know how you get on.Message Edited by edwardquan on 16-Jul-200701:16 AM

N97 Email connection issue

I have N97 with firmware version 11.0.021.209.04.
I am basically pleased with the phone apart from the slide unlock not working maybe 1 in 30 times (just open the qwerty pad to unlock in this case) not a big issue to me but hope it resolved in the firmware release.
However I have the following issue which is bugging me:-
I have set up my network priority list with my WLAN as 1, and the vodafone connection as 2.
I have my email connection setting set to default connection.
When I'm at home I have no problem, I can access my email through my WLAN.
However when I leave the house and try to to access my email I get a message saying WLAN is not available unable to access email. Obviously it is not available and I would expect the phone to automaticall switch to priority 2 but it doesn't.
I have to manually go into email connection settings and select vodafone.
My internet connection goes through the priority list no problem.
Does anyone know if I've not set something up correctly or if it is a bug.
Cheers

i have read the posts in this thread. so far, settings will be one of the reasons why you can't access your network providers' packet data.
>please understand that setting up email needs packet data/ GPRS to finish setting it up and then you can use WLAN to retrieve email whenever you want.
try this setting:
-->menu>messaging>options>settings>email>select mailbox (yahoo/hotmail,etc)
   >options>connection settings>access point in use> select network providers' packet data
--> if the same issue persist, try deleting your WLAN connection and add it again
--> or, you can try to do a soft reset which will make your phone return it's factory settings only
   not deleting file at all, just key-in *#7780#
--> next, do a hard reset. this time your files will be deleted so it is very much advisable to back
   up your files in OVI suite first or in your memory card before hard reset, just key in *#7370#
--> least likely, if your phone is a new one or you just bought it, it is unneccesary for you to do
   software update unless it is indicated to your product key that you may do so and if there
   is a new software for your phone. (check in nokia.com if you may do software update by
   by entering your product key)
--> if all else fails, bring your phone to Nokia Care Center/ Service Center accredited by Nokia

After Updating Mountain Lion, Mail & Safari keep crashing; WLAN Connection fails

After Updating Mountain Lion, Mail & Safari keep crashing; WLAN Connection fails;
I have updatet Mountain Lion and since then, Mail & Safari keep crashing plus: WLAN Connections keeps on failing from time to time.
My Router has the newest firmware, i am clueless what to do.
I even cannot shut down my mac properly.

Hello you all,
I also had the problem of a disconnecting wifi while my imac was sleeping. I did not have the reconnecting issue after sleep, but the lost connection issue during sleep which made it impossible to reach my imac for things like homesharing, apple tv or remote desktop. I have a late 2012 iMac with a clean ML 10.8.2 on it and wirelessly connected to an apple time capsule (same as an airport extreme). My partner has a mid 2007 iMac, also with an ML 10.8.2 on it.
I tried every single solution I could find on the internet, such as changing the router's security from wpa2 to wpa, changing the MTU from automatic to manual 1453, router reboots, re-installations, re-configurations, keychain clean-ups, everything.
Eventually I solved my problem with these steps and now it works as a charm. I can still find the iMac with the remote app, even after 12 hours of sleep:
My time capsule router is set on automatic MTU and encrypted with WPA2 and I use the 5Ghz network!
1. Cleaned all the wifi passwords in keychain on my iMac
2. Created a new network location in system preferences
3. In this location I deleted the bluetooth pan and bluetooth dun connection.
4. In this location I changed the preferred connection-order to wifi on #1 and ethernet on #2.
5. Restarted my iMac.
Now I still have a connection when it sleeps and I can wake it to low profile using the remote app (homesharing) and everything works fine.
Hope more people wille be helped by this.
