Sporadic Wireless Failure Persisting across Restarts

I've been reading through all the various wireless problems threads and while a few sound similar to the problem I'm having I think I only found one that's the same - and I'm not sure that one got resolved.
Here's the problem:
Sporadically, sometimes several times a night, sometimes not for a whole day, my iMac will lose its wireless connection. This usually happens in stages - first I still appear to have a wireless connection to my router, but no actual internet connection. At this point my router is always the only one in the list of displayed routers, even though I know there are many more I can usually see. After a while I lose signal completely (or I turn off and back on wireless, which has the same effect). At this point, no wireless networks show up in the list. After a while, I'll see some networks again, but usually not my router immediately. Then sometimes it will show up again, but I'll get an error connecting to it. This state persist a random amount of time, across turning on and off wireless, sleeping the computer, rebooting the computer, changing network settings, anything. Wired networking works fine during this time. Then at some point it'll snap back, connect (usually automatically, unless I change settings) and everything will be peachy until the next episode.
Notes:
- I don't have speed problems when things are working
- I never have the problem of the machine finding the network when waking up from sleep unless it's lost the network before
- this happens on all wireless channels and with varying distances to the router. Interference robustness setting does not matter.
- this persists across different routers (the Verizon Westell model and a linksys WRT54GL both with the latest linksys software as well as with some other downloadable firmwares)
- None of the latest apple updates seem to change the behaviour significantly
- None of the extensive setting changes I've made seem to change this behaviour
- router resets don't seem to matter
- the behaviour is so random that I'm not sure how to demonstrate it to a service person - by the time I get to them the machine will likely have a network connection and might work for a day thereafter
- other machines (two powerbooks) usually do not have the same problem and stay connected to the router just fine. Now, I've had instances where one of the other machines is also unable to connect during this time.
- using iStumbler when the machine is in its broken wireless state I can see my router, but iStumbler will refuse to display a graph for it, always jumping to another available network.
Having a really hard time pinning this one down. Maybe a slightly unseated or faulty wireless card? That doesn't explain why sometimes the other machines also have this problem, but perhaps that's just a different problem? It's certainly not as persistent or frequent on them as it is on the iMac.
I'm having a hard time believing it's a software problem as rebooting all machines/routers involved does not make it go away.
Anyone know if it's impossible to re-seat the wireless card yourself? If I go to an Apple Store and describe this to them, do you think they'll re-seat or exchange the card for me?
Thanks,

iMac C2D 24" Mac OS X (10.4.9)

zittergrotte,
Its sounds very similar to a persistent and annoying issue that affected all new C2D iMac owners after the 10.4.8 upgrade and I think I read that, re-installing the 10.4.9 combo update over the incremental software update has cured the problem for some users. Have you tried this as yet?
To all reading: has the wireless connectivity issues that affected so many C2D OSX users after the 10.4.8 update resurfaced in 10.4.9 or is this an isolated incident?
I hvaen't as yet updated to 10.4.9 cause I lost all faith after being stung on 10.4.8; but even after the apparent cure in the Airport Extreme 2007-002 update, I still get a consistently better connection, surfing time / speed on my works Dell Latitude D620 running WXP SP2. The iMac is generally sporadic and slow at best wirelessly whereas the Windows laptop zips along at quite a speed 95% of the time.
Quite disappointing to see a Windows machine so consistently outstrip a Mac so conclusively, but the Airport Extreme drivers just appear to be completely naff.

When file vault is on, file associations don't persist across restarts

The subject says it all. Neither do things like default browser. A related thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8417405#8417405
has been marked as solved, in spite of the fact that this problem persists today on a brand new machine with 10.5.5.
I've tried deleting caches, restarting launch services, etc. as suggested in some other posts, but nothing has been effective. Has anyone actually solved this problem? (as opposed to thinking of things that might solve it)
Alternatively, does anyone use file vault with file associations that persist over restarts? (i.e., is this working for anyone? 8))

This is just to keep this topic alive in the event that someone has discovered a workaround short of disabling the FileVault (which I may end up doing).
I am running 10.5.6 - upgraded via the combo update, and this problem still persists.
I find that the associations that get reset on reboot: chat, mail, web browser, and office-related files (i.e., .doc, .xls). I'm wondering if there is some way to manually edit the preference files that store these associations to somehow force the change? Any ideas?
I have tried clearing caches, repairing permissions, etc; it definitely appears to me that the rules are somewhat different for the FileVault. In fact, I had an issue getting Apache working due to the FileVault (which was thankfully resolved by this article: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20071224093830773).
Thanks!

[SOLVED] netcfg static IP not persisting across reboots in VM

I ran into an issue with netcfg static IP not persisting across reboots in a VM. I figured it out, but it took me awhile as a brand new user, so I thought I'd post it.
Setup
Using VMWare Workstation 8.0.3 build-703057 with bridged networking
Host OS: Linux Mint 14 64-bit
Guest OS: Arch Linux 2013.03.01 x86_64
Given a fresh install on the guest, setup netcfg:
cd /etc/network.d
cp examples/ethernet-static ./myprofile
nano myprofile
# customize this file. I also added NETMASK='255.255.255.0'
systemctl enable netcfg@myprofile
systemctl start netcfg@myprofile
Test the configuration. It should be successful:
ping google.com
Problem
See if the changes survive a reboot.
reboot
ping google.com
I got the error "connect: Network is unreachable".
Check the logs:
journalctl
G
I found the following netcfg failure..
[email protected]: main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
..prior to the following device initialization:
kernel: e1000 0000:02:00.0 eth0: Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection
system-udevd[117]: renamed network interface eth0 to emp2s0
Solution
It looks like netcfg is being started before the device it depends on has been initialized. Inform systemd of the
dependency so they start in the proper order:
# nano /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/[email protected]
# Add the following to [Unit]. Remember to replace enp2s0 with your device name.
Requires=sys-subsystem-net-devices-enp2s0.device
After=sys-subsystem-net-devices-enp2s0.device
Test again:
reboot
ping google.com
This should now be successful.

Why do button functions included in external actionscript not persist across frames?

this one drives me nuts!
if i include an external actionscript file in frame one of my
movie, then [as you'd expect] all the functions, global variables
etc contained in that external AS file are available throughout my
movie - with one notable exception.
if i add a button to the stage - in a frame other than frame
one - whose onRelease handler is defined in the external AS, the
function is not called when the button is clicked - i have to
re-include the external AS file again on the frame in which the
button resides, in order for the buttons function to be called.
anyone know why this is - and if there's a way round it?
how come all the other functions in the AS persist across all
frames and all timelines in the movie, but the button handlers only
seem to be available on the actual frame in which the AS file is
included?

I think you and I are dealing with similar issues and the
root cause is referred to as "scope." The only difference between
your and my problems is that your code is in an external as file
and mine is on the timline. But in both instances, code that should
work doesn't. Robert Reinhardt has covered this in an article at

How to make elevator/schedule type persistent across boots (multipath)

Hello All,
Running OEL 5.5 x64. Have set up multipath no probs, but notice that I get far better performance when using NOOP instead of CFQ, which is the default. Rather than having to change this every time I boot, wondering if there is a way to have it persistent across boots?
The issue is that it seems it must be done at the block level. For example, echo noop > /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler . The problem is that these block device paths change all the time. I saw something about doing it within grub.conf, but that did not work for me (http://lonesysadmin.net/2008/02/21/elevatornoop/)
Thanks in advance!

Hmm... perhaps in udev rules? These execute when the mpath devices are created. I use these to set permissions for mpath devices (at boot time or dynamically when refreshed). That should be the most appropriate place I think...

Vlc & chromium contents persist across virtual desktops after -Syu

I have just completed today's large pacman -Syu which includes upgrades chromium, vlc, a new kernel and nvidia blob and many others. On rebooting I see that:
(1) The vlc video window persists across across virtual desktops (although its frame is lost away from the desktop on which it was launched). This is using icewm as my WM.
(2) The content of chromium tabs persist in the same way.
Is anybody else seeing this please?

This is interesting.
I'm using openbox and I have the same problem when playing StarCraft II under wine. Just to clarify, I use the nvidia-drivers.
I start it on my second vdesktop*, tab to the first one.. persists. Tab back to 2, tab to 3 (all fine), tab to 1 and everything stays fine.
So I'd have to switch to 3, then to 1 to cleanly access 1.
What the heck is going on?
*Virtual desktop as in workspace. They are defined within openbox config.
Edit: No one in #archlinux seems to know anything so far.
Another edit: It only seems to happen when firefox is open on the desktop I want to access. Turning hardware acceleration off doesn't change a thing though.

How do I ensure HttpSession state is NOT persisted across server failures?

          I need to PREVENT the data in the HttpSession from being restored if the server crashes.
          I can't seem to find any documentation explicitly documentating how to ensure this.
          Any help would be greatly appreciated.
          Thanks,

WebLogic doesn't serialize and restore sessions when the server is
          shutdown/crashes
          for "memory" sessions. That should not happen. Check the value of
          session.getClass()
          to verify the perisistentStoreType.

Wireless Dropouts, Hub Keeps Restarting

A few days ago my hub started restarting much more frequently on its own and also my wireless keeps dropping out. This makes it very hard for gaming or simply watching videos when it does this. It is very bothersome. The connection hasn't been slow, my ping, download and upload speeds have been fine, but this problem persists and I do not know why.
Here is my helpdesk. What has actually come to my attention is the amount of noise and attentuation, however my connection is absolutely fine and the line is fine too, so I don't think this is the problem.
I am quite sure that my drops are nothing to do with DCHP renewing the leases on my devices' IP addresses too, as the logs do not show that.
Could someone help me please? Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The first thing to do is to factory reset the home hub, this fixes many issues.

SRP527W Wireless lan requires frequent restarts or slows to a crawl/won't allow attachment.

Hi all,
Have an SRP527W that I've had a couple of years,
Model:
SRP527W, ADSL2+ AnnexA, 802.11n ETSI, 2FXS/1FXO
Version ID:
V03
Hardware Version:
4.0.0
Boot Version:
1.1.17 (Jan 4 2010 - 21:15:46)
Firmware Version:
1.01.29 (002) Mar 29 2013
ADSL Firmware Version:
0.78.0
Recovery Firmware:
1.01.20 (011)
Setup Wizard Version:
20110728.00
As indicated in the subject, wireless users are finding that it is either unattachable (shows up in the list but fails to attach) or if you manage to authenticate and get in, it's painfully slow or simply drops out. Security is WPA-PSK.   Only noticed the issue after a couple of Windows 8 laptops came into the household, but the problem still seems to be there when they are off so not sure if they are connected in some way or not. Updated to the latest firmware - no change.   Wired connections are fine and when it's initially restarted, so is the wireless, seems to happen sometime after wireless services are restarted. Only the one Wireless SSID, nothing fancy, max users around 5, all on laptops or the odd pad.   I changed channels done narrow wide etc, (using mixed mode - some Wireless N laptops some Wireless B/G.   Nothing seems to make any difference. No log entries until the Wireless system is restarted, doesn't require a reboot of the router, just a SUBMIT of the existing wireless settings to force it to restart.
It seems to be getting worse, any suggestions as to how I should troubleshoot this appreciated, there seems to be no obvious cause.
TIA Geoff

There is only one other WLAN in range (neighbour). It IS overlapping (I've tried narrow but it seems to make no difference), but it's been there for years, never had an issue from it before. Signal strength is -70dBm v -60dBm for my router, so that could be an issue, however it's odd that it's never been a problem until now.   AFAIK, that router hasn't changed in years (Bigpond - whatever they use now).
Any suggestion welcome, - I can see it seems not to matter if the signal is full strength or not. 3 feet or 30 feet from the router the effect is the same, put it that way.
I'll see if I can relocate the router, it's on the side closest to the neighbour, unfortunately this will be non trivial as the phone line for the DSL only goes into that room (master bedroom).
As you can see, they are on Ch 6, slap in the middle of the band, I've now moved to 11 +13 but at present I can't 'see' my WLAN at all, may need to reset the router as submit restarted it fine according to the router, but the laptop which is on a wired lan, can't 'see' my own WLAN at the moment, but it 'sees' the neighbour's just fine.   As you can see, the neighbour is slap in the middle of the blasted band, (default for the modem/router probably). I'll try narrow again or try restricting us to G instead of N, but it's clearly not an optimum solution even if that works.
I'll try a reboot of the router and see what happens.
Cheers
Geoff

HP OJ 6500 Wireless Networkprinter persisting in going offline

After having installed and hooked in my wireless homenetwork this Officejet HP6500 (E709n wireless) printer, one year ago, it worked fine until some time ago when it did not react to printcommands. Inspection of Windows “Printers and Faxdevices” in XP Pro, it was “off line” (as well as the built in Faxdevice).
The HP printer and networkutilities (HPHNDU.exe and HPPDU.exe) run on my laptop could not find the printer in the network.
Neither a Networkconfiguration report printed via the printer keyboard/display nor printerstatusreports did reveal any failure. The printer seems on air, but the laptopWindows doesn’t see it, considering it offline.
Sometimes the connection reestablishes, but this occurs unpredictably and lasts for some minutes or so to return to invisibility of the printer.
From that moment on I have been reparing, reinstalling, reading, experimenting, posing questions to the HP-support, struggling with the possible solutions all the time, but no way result. In the contraray: the problems worsened in that the sleep-mode came up spontaneously upon a certain moment and not any reset worked to make/keep it awake.
Meanwhile HP-support offered me to replace this printer with a new one of the same type.
After installing this new device exactly according to the HP-prescriptions: you may guess…. Exactly the same off line issue appeared!!!
As the printer has functioned wireless as has to be expected during 10 months or so, the sudden change in malfunctioning cannot be caused by network nor by firewall. These did not change.
In this forum a search with the keywords “6500 offline” brings up many posts with similar items as this, but none of these turned out to be “the” solution. It seems to be a typical problem sticking on this type of HP.
Who knows the right answer to my printer on/off-line problems?
My equipment:
3 PC’s plus a network disk in my peer-to-peer homenetwork.
Only 1 PC has been used during this new installation procedure: Acer laptop 5920G + XP-Pro (32 bit).
Wireless: Linksys WRT54G Router/AP working mixed: b and g norms. Infrastructure, secured WPA2
Software: the latest full-version from the HP drivers site, including “HP Solution Centre”
Firewall: Windows switched off, F-Secure (from my ISP). On or off is of no significance in observed phenomena.

Installing Creative suite 6, failure to initialize/restart may be pending win 7

During the installer initialization it arrives at the machine restart may be pending however HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager. does not contain InProgress key
I have previously rebooted the computer because of issues stemming from an older version of NVIDIA graphic card interfering, in conflict with a windows update, with Revit Architecture software.
Both programs are needed for school.
After not finding the problem it resolved in just failure to initialize for a decent amount of time. This left nothing for adobe support advisor to even recognize.
Please help.

Hi R.scott55,
Please navigate to C/Program Files(X86)/Common Files/Adobe/and look for Caps and OOBE and rename both.
Run the installer again. If it says restart is pending just select ignore and proceed with installation.
If still any issue then follow the steps refered in the kb: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-error-messages-bootstrapper-cs5.html

Wireless Mouse Issues on Restart with Snow Leopard

I have a late 2006 iMac (2.15 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo) with an Apple wireless mouse. I just installed Snow Leopard and everything seems to be fine with one exception. Upon Restart, the mouse becomes disabled. The only way to get it to work is to move the slider under the mouse back and forth--that seems to re-establish the connection at least until the next time I restart.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is there a solution?

This is also happening on my MBA(1st gen). Wireless keyboard as well.

How do I troubleshoot sudden wireless failure

Last night my AirPort Extreme 802.11n stopped supporting wireless clients. I connect to it with two WhiteBook laptops, an iPhone and an iPad and all now fail to connect.
I first noticed this browsing the web on my iPhone. I was being prompted to connect to my network, which is unusual. Then I was being prompted for a password even though I haven't changed the WPA2 password settings since starting this router up a couple years ago.
When entering my password, I was given a prompt that I could not connect to the router. Not due to any bad password issues (that's usually a different message). On my laptop I would get a connection timeout when entering my password. Also, the signal I was finding (to try to connect) was intermittent and I could not see my network from as great a distance as usual (weak signal).
I first tried unplugging and restarting my router, with no luck. Then I tried subtly changing some settings in AirPort Utility (new WPA2 password) to force a restart from that end.
Finally, I did a factory reset via AirPort Utility. The symptoms are still exactly the same.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this? These routers are spendy and replacing them every 2 years seems a fools errand. But I do like having an easily network accessible hard drive connected to my router for backup purposes.
Thanks for any help you can provide!

Thanks for the response, @Tesserax.
I live in a single-family home, so the neighborly bandwidth can't be very high or growing at a high rate. For sure, I wouldn't expect things to suddenly stop working but rather a slow degradation. Also, I cannot maintain a wireless connection when standing next to the router.
And, no, we don't even have a landline phone system. Just a couple cell phones here.
I'm not sure about your question of wireless clients connecting to other wireless clients. I cannot really even get on my wireless network to connect to other wireless clients. For instance, my iPad gives me an "Unable to join the network" dialog.
I do have two computers talking to each other wired-to-wired through the network. They share a mouse+keyboard via Synergy. I will say I shut down the router overnight and plugged it back in this AM and there was a moment there where I didn't think the wired connection was working, either. But it's been solid throughout the day.
Thanks again!

Tx1000, when wireless disconnects, have to restart computer

I have an HP pavillion tx1000 (Windows Vista) that I bought in Dec 07. Every time the wireless disconnects, I have to restart my computer to get it to resconnect to my wireless again. It will disconnect from my wireless whether I'm using my computer or not. I know it is not a problem with my wireless, since I do not have problems with anything else connected to my wireless. I have changed the wireless client. updated the driver and tried disable and enable the wireless, yet nothing works except restarting the computer. The computer does tend to get hot, but I have it on a laptop fan and the wireless disconnects regardless of how long my computer has been on.

i have exact same problem with my tx1000... could you please let me know if you resolved this issue?
