Slow Connecting to Wifi

I recently restarted my iPod Touch and the first thing I noticed was that it takes a LONG time to connect to wifi and when it displays the signal icon, i have to wait several minutes before I can actually connect to the internet. In addition, it appears that I always have to open an apple app (like iTunes) before something else like facebook will connect. Before my restart the connecting to wifi took seconds and as soon as the wifi logo appeared (in seconds), I could connect to the internet with any app. My question: is this normal? If not, what happened?

It doesn't seem normal to me and I would approach the problem this way:
Restart your iPod: Hold the Sleep/Wake button until you get the red slider. Turn off your iPod. Hold the Sleep/Wake button to restart it (you'll see the Apple).
Reset your iPod: Turn your iPod off. Hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button simultaneously (+/- 10 seconds until you see the Apple icon).
And finally, Restore your iPod: connect to iTunes and select "Restore this iPod".
Hopefully a simple restart or reset will solve the problem.

Why is my iphone 4s slow connecting through wifi

hi, i've just got my new iphone 4s, all set up ok but when i want to go on the internet through wifi, it is painfully slow.
connecting through 3g is fine, but wifi is a no go. the phone does recognise my network, just doesn't connect to the internet. any help would be great.
many thanx

You're welcome.
You tried every thing listed/provided including resetting your router and checking/changing the channels along with everything included with this link?

Have you tried connecting the iPhone to any other wireless network? Any problem there?

Battery calculating associated with slow connect to wifi?

I recently got a new battery. To my surprise and delight, it was free even though it had close to 600 cycles on it. Anyways, the new battery works great. However, since using this new battery, the computer takes like 20 seconds to find my wifi network. I notice that whenever I wake my MBP from sleep, the battery says calculating. As soon as the battery is done calculating, the airport finds available networks.
It seems like there would be a correlation between the two but I'm not sure.
any help would be greatly appreciated

My preferred wifi networks were out of order...i put them in order of which ones i use the most often and it connects right away now

Incredibly slow connection over WIFI only on Mac

Hi,
I have the following problem that cannot fix and I need your help.
I have a 10Mbit fiber optic ISP connection and a Belkin wifi accesso point.
In the same room I have an iPhone, an iPad and a PC succesfully connected and up/downloading at full speed (up to 900K).
The problem is on the Mac that can't go faster than 10K !!!
Sometimes it also drops and cannot see the wifi for a while. I tested also with all other devices turned off and the access point freshly restarted.
Any idea?
thanks a lot

update/more info
when connected via ethernet cable the speed is very fast, so I guess no disk fragmentation issues
also, sometime the connection to the access point breaks and I can't find it on the airport search (I don't see any other access point). All this while the orhert devices do see many wifi in the area and easily connect to mine at top speed.
definitely the issue is on the Mac.
forgot to say, my belkin is set with a WPA2 password.

Why yahoo/gmail retrieval and facebook app so so slow when in WIFI. But using the internet to check for emails and facebook is fast using the same WIFI connection??

Why yahoo/gmail retrieval and facebook app so so slow when in WIFI. But using the internet to check for emails and facebook is fast using the same WIFI connection??

Hi SandyS_VZW,
Yes tried resetting the wifi connection and problem still persist.
Here it is...to make it clear. Connected thru the same wifi at home...
-> emails (yahoo/gmail) and facebook WEBSITES are working fine and fast when using/accessing thru a browser (chrome/samsung browser) - no problem with this.
-> emails (yahoo/gmail) and facebook APP is soooooo sloooww (thru the App). Slow I mean comparing it to using their browser/websites... news feeds/emails refreshing so quickly but not when using the APP installed in Samsung Galaxy Note 4. Slow like - It will take around 5-10minutes just to get your emails and news feed refreshed.
THIS HAPPENS ONLY WHEN CONNECTED THRU A WIFI which has a speed of 10-20mb. It is not happening when connected to the network data/plan.
My wife has the same Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (coming from different provider at&t) - same setup (emails, fb app), same wifi connection, but she's not experiencing anything like it.
Not sure why, I dont want to believe that while connected to a WIFI, Verizon is restricting anything and ******* me off to make me switch to my data plan connection everytime - which is Unfair!
Was there a known issue similar about this case?
thanks,

My internet connection (not WiFi) is slow on my 10.8.4 Mac Mini after installing/removing Norton.

I believe I've experienced this problem before, but cannot remember the exact solution. The previous solution was deleting a file in the Mac OS (possibly even the finder? but that sounds worrisome), then restarting.
I am using a Mac Mini 2.5 GHz i5, with 16GB of recently installed (within the last 3 months) 3rd-party RAM, loaded with Mac OS 10.8.4.
Recently, I received a DMCA letter from Comcast (my second), which just seemed impossible to me, so I decided to actually take their advice and install Norton. Why? Because I'm a moron. After all, my network is locked down with WPA2, I have an encrypted Time Machine drive connected to my 3rd Gen Airport Extreme, and encrypt my Mini when logged out (which happens after 15 minutes of inactivity). In brief, there's no way Comcast's letter was correct. But to be sure, I installed Norton.
Almost immediately, crappy internet connectivity ensued. My Wifi signal was always strong, but my computer struggled to connect to the outside internet. So, after a week of wondering, I finally uninstalled Norton (using their uninstall application found online).
Still, my Internet connection was (and is) crap. Here are the steps I've already taken to resolve the issue:
1. I called Comcast and asked them to check on their end. They conducted a reset from their end, which seemed to improve my connection, but only temporarily. It has since resumed a slow connection that sometimes drops out.
2. I tried my network with other devices: 2 iPads, 2 iPhones, and one Macbook Air all have excellent internet connectivity. As I write this, my Mini struggles to load Comcast's speed test site, but my iPhone is pulling down near 30 Mbps.
3. I have connected my Mini to another, neighboring Wifi, and it works like a charm. Fast Internet, no cutting out.
4. I loaded Time Machine, and restored my system to its pre-Norton state. Still, the Internet connectivity is poor.
5. I have created a new network on my Airport Extreme. While my iPhone still pulls down a great connection, my Mini chokes on it.
The only things I can think to do from here is to Factory Reset my Airport (which I don't see as a plausible solution, since all my other devices connect through it just fine), wipe my Mini and start over (not a realistic solution for my business), or throw it out the window entirely, then stomp up and down on it (this won't fix my Internet issue, but I might feel better).
Thoughts? I KNOW it's an easy fix, but I just can't remember what it was. The same thing happened to me a couple of years ago with another Macbook, and it was a simple file deletion and restart.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Alright, I think I might've actually solved my own problem. Here's what I did (for anyone out there with the same/similar issue):
Open System Preferences and click on the Network pane.
Select Airport in the list to the left and click the minus button below to temporarily delete it.
Restart your Mac.
Go to the Network section of System Preferences again, this time pressing the plus button towards the bottom of the window.
Select Airport from the Interface menu, leave “Airport” as the default name, and click Create.
Select your WiFi network, and enter your password.
My speed is back up to speed, so fingers crossed that this works!

Since upgrading to Lion, my MacBook Pro is super slow connecting to Wi-Fi. Not so with Daughter's Snow Leopard or Wife's Dell. Any ideas?

Since upgrading to Lion, my MacBook Pro is super slow connecting to Wi-Fi (seems to search forever). This is not the case with my Daughter's MacBook (still on Snow Leopard) or my Wife's Dell (Windows 7). Any ideas?

Hold Option when you click on the Airport in the top bar & post the stats.

The Note 4 slows down the wifi when connected, constant data transfer.

The Note 4 locks up our wifi with excessive data traffic, our S5 phones do not do this. What should we look at in settings, apps, etc to fix this. It cannot be connected to wifi in its current state!

WiFi is a great resource and I want to be sure that you can use yours successfully with your Note 4, Gahwrv. What kind of router are you connecting to? When connected to WiFi are you unable to use data at all or is the connection slow? If you go to Settings>WiFi>Select Menu icon>Advanced is Smart Network switch enabled? If so, please try disabling it and testing your connection.

TS1398 Slow connection and exclamation mark next to wifi

I have a very slow connection to the internet and there is an exclamation mark showing next to my wifi connection in setting, how do I remove this and is this causing the slow connection?

Try this:
1. Turn router off for 30 seconds and on again
2. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

Why is it YouTube loads really slow sometimes even when I'm connected to wifi ?

Why is it YouTube loads really slow sometimes even when I'm connected to wifi ?

Hard to say. The speed of your Internet connection. Congestion on YouTube's servers, problems at any point in between you and them... When you are connected to WiFi, you will get a substantially higher resolution version of some videos than you do on 3G.
Are you using the youtube app or are you just accessing it via a web browser.

My Ipad doesn't connect to wifi while all other devices are connected.

My iPad doesn't connect to wifi anymore while all other devices in the same network are connected including iPod.
iPad was connected this morning, but quit connecting since this afternoon.
It tries to connect, but everytime connects, it disconnect within a second, and it keep doing the same thing.
This is the first time ever I see this problem since I started using this iPad.
What happened to my iPad??

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list

Unable to Connect to WiFi after iPhone power off; WiFi & internet are working with MBP; common problem, no solutions?

Here's my setup: Internet <> Comcast/xFinity supplied cable modem <> new Apple Time Capsule <> iPhone 4 & MacBook Pro (see below for hardware details)
Internet on my iPhone 4 has been acting slow since yesterday evening. My MacBook Pro was running fine, but just to be sure I checked the Comcast website to see that I have only used 50GB of my allotted 250 GB of data for the month, so it's not that.
I decided it must be a problem with just my iPhone, so I opened up the multitasking bar and quit everything in there manually, and then I held the on/off button, and slid the slider to power off. When I started back up, I could not connect to the same WiFi I had just been using. I tried to reconnect and nothing. I tried to forget the network and try again, nothing. I tried to reset all network settings, nothing.
I have tried all the steps listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398 "iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections"
Toggled WiFi off and back on
Made sure I am in range of the router (it's about 8 feet away and my iPhone reports full signal from the network)
Made sure all the hardware is connected and on
Checked other devices (I'm successfully connected with my MacBook Pro right now)
Checked for router firmware upgrades (I have a new Time Capsule from Apple with the current 7.5.2 firmware which I've been using for a month)
Restarted my device (again)
Checked that the network is available (it does show on my iPhone)
Restarted my Time Capsule
Checked my router configuration as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3727 "Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network" which involves simply checking to see that WMM is turned on, also stating that WMM cannot be enabled or disabled for Apple's AirPort products.
Reset my network settings (again)
I have searched and searched for fixes to this problem, and I have additionally tried:
Enabling/disabling Airplane Mode
Disabling any network password protection/encryption (no luck), re-enabling it (no luck)
Changing the network password
Checking for hardware addresses present in iOS Settings > General > About (they are present and not zero'ed out)
Switching Bluetooth off (nothing) and back on (nothing)
....and probably a few other things I can't think of right now
I have yet to try:
The "Freezer Trick" which apparently involves chilling the iPhone to get a temporary fix?
Restoring the iPhone (I would really rather not)
A different WiFi network (other than my own Time Capsule home network or guest network, both of which give the same Unable to Connect error)
So, after all of that, are there any more ideas? Is there a reliable solution to this issue? So far I've just seen a lot of "mess with the settings," "the freezer trick worked," and "blame it on the iOS 4 update."
Here are my hardware details:
iPhone 4; iOS 5; 32GB; AT&T; no cellular data plan (July 2011)
TimeCapsule6,113; Firmware 7.5.2; 2TB (September 2011)
MacBook Pro 3,1; Mac OS X (10.7.2); 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo; Hi-Res Display; 4GB RAM; 500GB HD (August 2007)
...and the Time Capsule config:
http://cl.ly/BCUt

Ugh. Apparently "messing with it" is still the answer. I decided to try the LinkSys router I was using before I bought the Time Capsule, and my iPhone connected with no problem.
I went through the steps again, and after rebooting my Time Capsule this time, I can connect again. The troubling thing it that this started with a power-off of my iPhone. No changes or installations, just a reset. Am I going to have to reboot my Time Capsule (which has no power switch, just a cord I have to unplug) every time I reboot my iPhone?
Jinkies.

IPad shows it it is connected to WiFi but it isn't (nothing will load)

Just accidentally updated my iPad to iOS 7.1.1. Started it up and tried to connect to WiFi. Correct password and the WiFi is working for all different devices, and the iPad appears to connect to it successfully. The icon is there and everything. It's found the IP Address, Router, etc. etc.
However, absolutely nothing will load (not Safari, App Store, anything). It's not a problem with WiFi - all three of my computers and my phone can connect to this WiFi, it's just my newly updated iPad.
There are no addons and no this and that. I restored factory settings. No backups or anything.
I have:
1) Restarted my router,
2) Restarted my iPad,
3) Dropped my iPad into Recovery Mode and restored it to factory settings and tried again,
4) Dropped my iPad into DFU Mode and restored it to factory settings and tried again,
5) Turned off my iPad and tried again,
6) Turned off my WiFi and tried again,
7) Reset Network Settings and tried again,
8) Turned off HTTP Proxy and tried again,
9) Forgotten the Network and tried again.
So if one of your solutions is one of the nine above, please don't bother answering me.
Thank you,

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
