Random disconnection from internet

My Macbook keeps loosing its internet connection. It's not a problem with my internet provider. I have to continually turn the AirPort on and off to re-establish connection. Any suggestions?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We're all users here.
Does the same thing happen everywhere you connect wirelessly or just one location?
I had a similar problem with my very first wireless router in 2007. It worked fine when connected via an Ethernet cable, but MacBook wireless connections rarely lasted more than 10 minutes without dropping. Turning AirPort off and back on would reconnect for a few minutes. That was an inexpensive Trendnet 802.11b/g model TEW432B, and no combination of router and computer settings ever solved the problem.
Using the computer at other locations with different WiFi sources confirmed that the problem was not with my computer. Once I replaced the Trendnet with a different router from another manufacturer in 2008, (a D-Link 802.11 draft-N model DIR-655), I stayed connected all the time. That D-Link is still in use, and still works flawlessly. Since 2008 we've added a Nintendo Wii, an iPad 2, an iPod Touch, a MacBook Pro, and 2 Canon WiFi printers.

Please help! iMac randomly disconnects from internet. Wi-fi via BT hub. I am baffled by all of the suggestions when I google this problem! Any simple solution? Thanks!

Please Help! My brand new imac randomly disconnects from the internet. We have a BT hub - wi-fi. I have googled this issue and see that it is relatively common and it is incredibly frustrating. sadly, I have been unable to wade through the suggestions others have had as to how to solve the problem as i have no technical knowledge and am basically baffled by the list of suggestions. Please can anyone explain why this happens and what to do? It is fairly simple to reconnect each time but it is driving me mad having to. It generally happens when the computer is asleep but sometimes in the middle of doing something. Thanks!!!!!!

What frequency, security are you running? It would have been helpful if you specified in the first post.
Did you create a new Location in System Preferences->Network pane, Location pull-down. Create a new custom named Location. Then after you create that new Location click on the 'Apply' button to save that new custom named Location. See if that helps.
Lastly a lot of people have reported that WEP in lion is problmatic and it would be better to use WPA2 if you can.

I have two problems with my 2012 13" MacBook Pro. 1. Gray screen shows at startup 2. Randomly disconnects from network. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I have two problems with my 2012 13” MacBook Pro.
Gray screen shows at startup
Randomly disconnects from network.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

First, open Terminal in your Utilities folder and paste this into the prompt line:
sudo update_dyld_shared_cache
Press RETURN. You will be prompted to enter your admin password which will not be echoed to the screen. Press RETURN again.
Next, boot the computer into Safe Mode.
Next, do the following:
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

My phone will randomly disconnect from the wifi and when I retype the password it says it is wrong. It will eventually work but I have to wait for a message to pop up on my screen to allow me to retype the wifi password.

When I first got my phone it worked perfectly fine with the wifi. Although later on I began to have problems connecting it. It will randomly disconnect from the wifi and when I try to retype the password it tells me it is wrong, although it is right. It will eventually work but in its own time, a message will pop up and allow me to type in the password and it will work. But sometimes it takes an hour or more and sometime it takes 10 minutes. I've seen where other people have had this problem but I don't know how to fix it. I'm not sure if it's an issue with my phone or if it's with my wifi. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Does this happen with all Wi-Fi hotspots? A specific one?
Have you tried forgetting the Wi-Fi connection and then reconnecting to it?
What about power cycling the Wi-Fi router?

My 1st generation Time Capsule/2007 keeps shutting off and disconnecting from internet? What could be the problem? How long do the Time Capsules usually last?

That it is still working is miraclous.. most have died.. lots started flaking out at 18months to 2years..
See deadtimecapsule.org
The few that remained now seem to have reached EOL.. you can repair if you have some skills.. fairly cheaply.
But it is well and truly time to replace.

IPod Classic Randomly Disconnects from Car Stereo

I have a 160GB iPod Classic that is hooked up to my car stereo. Previously it was connected to a 2012 Kia Sorento SX and it would just randomly disconnect from the stereo and freeze. The only way to get it back was to do a hard reset (menu/select button held down), then start playing a song, and then connecting to the stereo. It didn't happen frequently, but maybe once or twice a month. Annoying. But I thought it had to do with the way Kia implemented the connection to the iPpd.
I just recently acquired a 2014 Acura MDX and I've already had that same annoying problem twice in 2 days. So now I'm starting to think maybe it's the iPod.
In the past, I've done a full restore, repaired the drive, etc. Nothing seemed to help.
Any ideas? Thanks!!

Sometimes this works. Otherwise you will have to wait for an updte to the car system or the iOS on the iPod
- 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.
- Reset the car system
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Wifi randomly disconnects from my macbook pro running 10.9.2.

Wifi randomly disconnects from my macbook pro running 10.9.2. Rebooting is necessary to regain the wifi connection. The wifi power indicator indicates a full connection, but the card sees no wifi networks. I have renamed the location, deleted and reinstalled the wifi interface, moved the wifi inerface to the top, and reset the DNS. This problem is continual and occurs with all wifi spots. Please help.

It seems that the wifi on the computer shuts off and will not turn on until the computer has been rebooted. Can someone poease help?

Apple TV Randomly Disconnects From iTunes While Streaming Videos

Hey All,
Anyone having an issue where your Apple TV randomly disconnects from your iTunes on another computer while streaming videos from it? Randomly, on different shows and movies, I have had it do it quite a few times.
In the beginning, after it would disconnect, within a few seconds, it would reconnect to iTunes and then I would have to navigate back to what I was watching and and resume it. Now, it will disconnect, and then I will have to quit iTunes on my iMac and then start it up again.
I am curious if it is an issue with the wireless adapter on the ATV because when it happens, it looks like it losses complete connection with the iTunes and then reconnects to the net only after. Then I would need to restart iTunes on my iMac to continue watching my show.
This was happening before the recent update and continues after the update as well.
Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!

You're talking about those WIFI bridges they make for xbox 360s that connect the 360 ethernet to a wifi adapter, bridging it?
That is a possible solution, but I will definitely check with Apple first, hoping it will be a no money solution (I am a grad student, every dollar helps).
My apartment is two rooms, my iMac being in another room, so that wouldn't work. The Wifi extender will probably be my only hope if Apple is not cool with the helping a brother out.

After installing visual studio, I get continuously disconnected from internet

Hi all.
I just installed Visal Studio 2013 Community on my new Acer R13 with W8 Pro. After installation, I get continuousy disconnected from internet. It seems to be something with the virtual adapter that VS creates in order to run WP emulators. Some times I have
to wait a minute or two and the connection comes back up, but sometimes I have o restart my system in order for it to work. Has any one run into this? Any suggestions?
The same thing happend o me on my old latop, a Samsung Chronos Serires 7. I used to think it was a problem with that compuer, but now it seems like a VS or Windows issue.
Thanks.
:. HUGONNE .: Please mark as answer if the post helps. Coding tips - http://hugonne.blogspot.com/

Hi Hugonne,
Based on your issue, to check this issue is related to the VS IDE or your Windows OS, I suggest you could try to install same version of VS on other machine check the issue.
(1) If you get same issue, I suggest you can try to repaid or re-install the VS2013 Community and then reset the VS setting check this issue.
(2) If you did not get same issue, I suggest you try to check your network connections on your windows. If the network connections did not have issue, maybe you will need to repair or re-install your OS check this issue again.

Undocumented 'random disconnection' from manually connected wireless

I have got a USB-N13 wireless-N300 dongle.
According to 'lspci -k' I have the drivers, and I have a wireless interface. So I know that my dongle has drivers but I don't know if they work 100% well.

This is all the information from when I fist see an wireless interface.
All, I can tell is that my wlp5s0u1 doesn't go down, but a few seconds before I plug in my wireless bridge, or enp4s0, my 'Internet stops...' Or I can't search google, and my youtube stops streaming, conky says that about 30bytes get transfered from that point on, and there is no errors?!
I'm not on a laptop, and my device's power saver is set to off. And as I'm not getting the second error I don't know how to fix this.
$ iw dev wlp5s0u1 get power_save
Power save: off
(Sorry if this is blatantly obvious, I've only had arch for under a month, with no prior Linux experience, and my dad can't help me with it too!)
EDIT:
Please can someone please tell me something that I can try or look into to resolve this, I have a useless dongle now, and an Internet connection that drops at least 50% of the packets.

Airplay randomly disconnects from airport express

I listen to spotify on my macbook air via the airplay feature and airport express. The airplay feature randomly disconnects and the only way to get it back seems to be to switch the airport express off and then on again. Is there a way to get a bit more reliablity. Sometimes I have to reset it all by unplugging the whole thing from the router and waiting for a few minutes and then starting it all up again. What a performance! I was told to do this on an applecare phone consult. Surely this shouldn't keep happening!?

Hi there:
Here is a solution ONLY IF YOU HAVE THE AIRPORT EXPRESS AS A AIRPLAY SPEAKER! (Join network)
Change in the AE the protocol, intead of DHCP, change it to Static.
If you use the AE only as a speaker, you dont need internet on it. It will appear a warning message about the DNS... ignore it and try it again.
It worked out for me for about a month since I start to having the problem.
NOW, if you use the AE to extend your signal, I don't have any solution for you, but if you use it only to AIRPLAY, this message is for you.
LUCK!!!!!

Install SL OS and a boot camp as disconnected from internet?

i am considering installing an install of Snow Leopard and Boot Camp Windows XP on a hard drive in my Mac Pro and i am wondering if i can keep this disk/OS disconnected from the internet.
i am assuming that Safari and Mac mail will come pre-loaded with the OS but i am wondering if there is a way to keep this a very stripped down without all the annoyances of being connected.
my other OS's are utilizing the world wide web in this machine.
TIA

Since I do absolute nothing with anything from Microsoft, I am going to have to guess here on that and say that I doubt it seriouslly.
There must be a way to turn off the network under Windows I would guess in a similar way that I suggested for OS X is also my guess. Exactly how to do that would take someone more knowledgable with Windows then me. Sorry.

Random Disconnection From My Wireless Access Point

I got my MacBook a few weeks ago, wand I'm loving it... for the most part.
Info: I've been using my Linksys WRT54G router for years. I've never had a problem. I currently have a desktop Mac connected to it along with my MacBook, and the connection on the Mac is fine.
*The problem:* My MacBook doesn't hold a steady connection to my router, even when I'm just mere feet away.
*What happens:* I have a very strong connection on my WiFi with the built-in AirPort. Then, a few seconds later, all of the 4 bars drop to 0 for a few seconds, jump back to 4, go back down to 0... you get the picture. I find this frustrating, as the internet may shut down for a minute at a time, regain connection for a few seconds, and then lose connection after about 10 seconds. I am unable to use iChat (it shuts down whenever I lose connection), or easily browse the internet.
*I know it's not the router. My desktop Mac connects with ease. Should I take my MacBook to a Genius Bar?*

Disconnection from internet behind WRT54G V2.2

I have two computers at home with both access to WRT54G V2.2 wirelessly.
Since the first day i set up the router, both of my computers get disconnected from the internet from time to time. It is very irritating. The two computers are still connected to the router but no data is exchanged with the ISP,for example, both the computers usually will get disconnected from the MSN one after the other. Then, try to connect tp the MSN but it wont be possible. Everytime, i need to do troubleshooting on MSN and the DNS and Wireless part always fail. I will have to click the repair button to make sure that both DNS and Wireless become normal before i can connect to the MSN,as well as websites. Usually,if i dont do the troubleshooting in MSN, i dont know how long i will have to wait before i can access to websites.
What should i do ??

1, 6 & 11 are the channels that the wireless router are using to transmit signals. try to check which of those three works best for your computers. and if that wont work, lower the beacon to 75, frag to 2306 & rts 2307 for starters. and if still that wont work, i recomend a firmware upgrade. ^__^
