SSID change & odd connection timeouts

Hello,
We are in the process of changing our ssid's and re-subnetting our networks. We have 1142's, 1131's and a 5508 controller. I have everything working, but I have noticed that sometimes the clients (all windows xp sp3) will take a long time to connect to the ssid's, both the old and new ones. It almost looks like it's taking a long time to get the ip address from the dhcp server (which is the switch where the access point is connected too).
I'm tring to find out more information about some of the WLAN settings and I was wondering if anyone knew if "Learn Client IP Address" under advanced H-REAP settings in the WLAN configuration would be the cause of the slow or timing out connections?
Currently in the advanced tab of the WLAN configuration I have the following enabled:
Coverage Hole Detection
Aironet IE
Client Exclusion - 60 Seconds
H-Reap
Learn Client Ip Address
Any ideas?

1. WEP is hackable.
2. leaving the SSID to linksys tells a hacker/wardriver to use "admin" as the default password!
Change your SSID
Change your admin password to something longer than 8 characters (with upper/lower case letters and numbers) if WEP has to be used then use the highest level of WEP encryption.
The hacker has most likely now got all you MAC addresses if he has been on your router. i would now go out and buy a USB WPA stick that works with your Mac and use WPA encryption with more than 20 characters for the passkey.
This story is a prime example of how to get hacked.

Hi,
I lost my airport connection when I was using internet and when I wanted to re-reconnect to airport it gave me connection timeout error, I changed my password on router but still doesn't work. How can i fix my problem?

Hello there hastibahreini,
It sounds like you were using your Wi-Fi network from your Airport base station and the connection cut out. You have reset the password on the device but the issue persists. I would try the 3 resets outlined in the following article in order to help resolve the issue. If it persists, is the Wi-Fi connection issue happening on more than one device or computer?

How to make a socket connection timeout infinity in Servlet doPost method.

I want to redirect my System.out to a file on a remote server (running Apache Web Server and Apache Tomcat). For which I have created a file upload servlet.
The connection is established only once with the servlet and the System.out is redirected to it. Everything goes fine if i keep sending data every 10 second.
But it is required that the data can be sent to the servlet even after 1 or 2 days. The connection should remain open. I am getting java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out Exception as the socket timeout occurs.
Can anyone guide me how to change the default timeout of the socket connection in my servlet class.
Following is the coding to establish a connection with the Servlet.
URL servletURL = new URL(mURL.getProtocol(), mURL.getHost(), port, getFileUploadServletName() );
URLConnection mCon = servletURL.openConnection();
mCon.setDoInput(true);
mCon.setDoOutput(true);
mCon.setUseCaches(false);
mCon.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data");
In the Servlet Code I am just trying to read the input from the in that is the input stream.
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
throws ServletException, IOException
BufferedInputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(req.getInputStream());
byte [] content = new byte[1024];
do
read = in.read(content, 0, content.length);
if (read > 0)
out.write(content, 0, read);
I have redirected the System.out to the required position.
System.setOut(........);
Can anyone guide me how to change the default timeout of the socket connection in my servlet class.

I am aware of the setKeepAlive() method, but this can only used with the sockets. Here i am inside a servlet, have access to HTTPServletRequest and HTTPServletResponse and I don't know how to get access to the underlying sockets as the socket handling will be handled by the tomcat itself. If I am right there will be method in the apache tomcat 6.0.x to set this property. But till now I am not getting it.

Time Capsule woes -- Connection timeouts and can't connect with one Macbook

This is my second Time Capsule. Here's the scenario:
I have a Netopia 3347 DSL modem. That feeds into the Time Capsule in bridge mode. There is a MacBook (metal case), iBook (yes, it's old), two iphones, a color printer and an iPad that can all connect to the Time Capsule just fine. The problem is my MacBook can't connect. The offending computer is a 2.2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo running SL 10.6.6. This computer can connect to the Netopia just fine, so I know its internal Airport works. After several go arounds with Apple tech support, I'm still nowhere.
Here are the symptoms:
1. I can see the TC's network SSID in the airport pull down menu. If I select the TC, a popup appears and asks for a password. If I enter the password, I'll get a connection timeout error.
2. On the rare occasions where it does connect, I can't open a webpage. Network diagnostics has red dots for ISP Internet and Server
3. On the even rarer occasions where it does connect, and I can access a webpage, it's unbearably slow, and the no-surf problem reappears after a few seconds. The red dots on the Network Diagnostics reappear.
Apple tech support was not helpful. I've power cycled everything a million times (and that doesn't explain why other computers can connect.) I know it's not my computer, because it can connect to the Netopia just fine.
I am STUMPED.

Magnificent! Problem solved... Isn't there a "this solved my problem" button somewhere?? Thanks and thanks again!

Connection timeout on hotel wifi - only with MacBook8.1 (810.9) configd plug-in:8.1 (810.9)

I'm having a "Connection Timeout" issue while trying to connect to my hotel's WIFI.
I bought an ex-lease refurbished white MacBook (Build 12E55 - 2.4GHz, the last 2010 model I think) a couple of weeks ago. I bought it so I could use it while on vacation in Bali, Indonesia. I've got OS X 10..8.4 installed.
At home in Australia, this MacBook connected to my home WIFI with absolutely no issues at all.
Now that I'm in Bali, I'm surprised to find that every time I try to connect to the WIFI at the hotel (where I'm staying for a whole month), I get a "Connection Timeout" error. I'm surprised because my iPhone connects to the hotel WIFI with no problem at all, as does our two iPads and the Android phones that belong to other family members. It's only my MacBook that struggles, even though I get even better signal strength indicated on my MacBook compared to my other devices.
I can connect my MacBook to my iPhone hotspot fine, though I'd prefer to use the free hotel WIFI over my very small 3G data allowance.
So the problem isn't that my MacBook can't connect to any WIFI, because it did at home and it still can to my iPhone hotspot.
And the problem isn't with the router, because all other devices work flawlessly.
I've trawled many forums and articles trying to find a solution. Here's everything I've tried already, that I can remember. (Not in this order and not all at once.)
Rebooted MacBook (duh)
Sitting directly under the WIFI router. (It's not a signal strength issue.)
Set up new Network > Location. Deleted Ethernet and Bluetooth PAN so it's just WIFI in the list.
Renewed DHCP Lease countless times.
Tried manual TCP/IP variations. It doesn't help that I'm not sure what to put in the IPv4 Address field. I do know the Subnet Mask and Router IP from looking at my iPhone network info.
Tried using my MAC address as the DHCP Client ID. Also tried just using "1" or leaving it blank.
I don't know what an IPv6 is either.
Tried BootP and completely Manual setups but not really sure of the correct settings to try.
Tried using the DNS servers that I found on my iPhone network info for the hotel WIFI. (One of them is 8.8.8.8 which I think is Google's DNS thing?)
Tried checking Auto Proxy Discovery and Use Passive FTP Mode, since it was suggested as part of a solution in a forum thread.
Tried changing the MTU to a couple of other settings from an article I read. I think one was around 1453 and the other was 1494 or something close to that.
Tried resetting PRAM
Tried resetting SMC
Tried a variation on resetting SMC that involved pressing down the normal keys plus one extra, for 10 secs, since it worked for someone who was told to do that by an Apple Care person. (He didn't know why it worked and other forum posters thought it was supposed to have been a SMC reset.)
Checked the Network> Wi-Fi in System Information to see if the Channel is compatible. The router uses Channel 1 and my MacBook is capable of using Channel 1.
Checked my country profile. It's X1. I have no idea if that's good. All I know is that I'm in Indonesia not Australia and I'm having WIFI issues with this hotel network.
Checked the PHY Mode. Supported are 802.11 a/b/g/n. The hotel router uses 802.11n.
Made sure I was using WPA2 Personal.
Tried deleting all WIFI-related passwords in Keychain.
Tried deleting all Network-related preference files.
Tried removing all LaunchDaemons and LaunchAgents.
It's not a "lost WIFI connection when waking from sleep" issue but I tried turning off sleep anyway.
My husband even had the nerve to unplug the hotel router (small hotel, we're the only guests at the moment) for 10 minutes hoping it will reboot. But I don't know if that's the actual modem or just a WIFI repeater thing (sorry, can't remember the right terms). It didn't work anyway.
I've run out of options, other than just sucking it up and getting a big 3G data allowance since I'm here for a month.
If there is anything else I can try - perhaps working out how to set up my Network manually properly, please help me out. Here is everything in System Information that might help. I'll happily provide any other info.

Sorry. The topic title got mucked up when I tried to paste in my System Information. And I can't paste it in using my iPhone without it going haywire. I can provide any details you need.

Best router for a macbook experiencing connection timeouts?

Hi all,
I know macbook wireless connection issues have been discussed to death already, but I have a slightly different question and with Black Friday looming, I was hoping to get some input from those who may have had success with finding a new router. I apologize for the incoming wall of text, it's been a long, arduous journey.
My 2007ish Macbook ceased to be wireless over a year ago, at least at home. I was on Snow Leopard at the time, and using the internet when it dropped suddenly but connected after a restart. It dropped several more times and each time would require more restarts. By the end of the day, it didn't see my router, nor the neighbors' forever unsecured linksys router (yet i've had to go to war defending our network from their 17 year old son) or any other nearby network. I'm no longer 100% certain, but I do believe there had recently been an update (wifi died around July 4th 2011 if anyone is an obssessive date keeper) In the next days I installed kismet and istumbler and took the macbook for a drive around the neighborhood, where it proceeded to detect all kinds of other networks that it had never seen before (like, ever because its out of range). At home, still nothing.
Over the next few months, I furiously googled for hours upon hours and tried everything I came across. And I do mean everything, even things I consciously knew would not have any affect. I did a clean install of Lion but no change. It's been to the apple store three times, where of course it detected their network and connected with no hesitation and diagnostics showed it maintaining better signal strength than I can ever remember seeing at home. They gave me various suggestions, from the predictable 'replace wireless card' to the ludicrous 'send it off and have the antennae replaced' which would be $800 dollars because they would need to open the screen part. Yeah..no. At least they replaced my swelling battery and top case for free. Anyway, thenceforth I remained chained to my desk by ethernet.
Fast forward to now. Still chained to the desk, but more determined than ever to do something about it. About a month ago I gave it another go and eventually after a few adjustments it started to actually detect the router and I can click to connect, enter the password, but of course, connection timeout. So the network name sits there in the dropdown menu, but bars all greyed out. Very frustrating.
So as a last ditch effort, I have decided to try replacing our router, a Linksys WRTP54G that is infuriatingly locked to Vonage, which we no longer have. There's a motorola surfboard modem connected to the router, and a switch between the router and macbook. The switch isn't the problem, it wasn't even there when the problem started. I've also tried a WRT54G which didn't work either. The Macbook works fine on a university network, but I don't have access to any of the specifics about the network. It also connects to a plethora of other home networks and routers, some of which I do believe are b/g routers.
We're due for a more powerful, capable, and not-cursed-by-vonage router anyway as our devices have increased in number from 4 to nearly 13. I want one that can support NAS and if possible Open WRT. I was also planning to move us behind a VPN very soon. I know that's maybe getting a bit nitpicky, but I am definitely prepared to pay more if it means the Macbook is wireless and I can clear up the 20ft river of chords snaking not so subtly around our upstairs.
So the question is, has anyone had any luck fixing the problem by replacing the router? Even if it doesn't have tons of features, any input on what kinds of routers seem to make Macbooks with this problem fall in line would be so helpful!!

Apple AirPort Extreme has served my mixed environment very well. You can buy a refurbished one from Apple and save some $.

Network Connection Timeout when "Chkng for available downloads" from iTunes

I have been struggling with this problem for weeks and have spent a significant amount of time trying to diagnose and fix without success.
When I select “Check for Available Downloads” through iTunes, I receive a “Network Connection Timeout” message and iTunes fails to download any information. It does ask me to validate my access with a password before it fails.
This problem initially occurred after I purchased the iTunes Plus updates for my music library. It backlogged about 70 updates that are now sitting in the queue to be downloaded to my local iTunes library. However, since I made that purchase, I have not successfully been able to do any downloads from the iTunes store. I suspect that the volume of items in the queue is related to the problem (as a trigger or the cause).
I have also tried to buy a single song. Although the purchase is successful (it charges my card and adds the song to the download queue), it doesn’t successfully download the song. I cannot, at this time, even get to a point where I can display a list of the queue for download. It always fails when trying to access that available download queue.
Podcast downloads still work fine through iTunes. I have never had problems with the store before and have done very large downloads (e.g. audio books) in the past. I have had no changes to my configuration leading up to this problem.
I am running a relatively new computer with a clean install of Windows 7, plenty of memory and very fast processors. I’ve got high capacity DSL. The connection is wired from the router into my network card (not wireless).
I have tried a number of things as noted below and the problem still occurs:
1. Confirmed access to internet, and ability to download from other web sites without timeout
2. Confirmed my ability to access the iTunes store, change my personal information, browse songs
3. Confirmed ability to download podcasts
4. Deactivated my windows firewall, antivirus and Net nanny content protection.
5. Deactivated the router firewall, and placed my PC in the DMZ of the router (which means that it should be wide open to the external network).
6. Swapped out the DSL modem for a different DSL modem and completely removed the router from the configuration.
7. Checked my drivers on the network card and made sure they are up to date.
8. Ran Windows 7 network diagnostics – no problems detected
9. Ran iTunes network diagnostics – no problems detected
10. Uninstalled all software related to iTunes and reinstalled most current versions (iTunes, Quicktime, Bonjur, etc.)
Thoughts?

have the same problem...still waiting

MacBook Pro connection timeout message for personal hotspot but works on iPad. Any suggestions?, MacBook Pro connection timeout message for personal hotspot but works on iPad. Any suggestions?

I am having issues with my personal hotspot. I can connect an iPAD to it but the MacBook Pro gives a connection timeout error. Sometimes it asks for a password but when I type in the correct one it doesn't recognise it. Any suggestions? My software is up to date and I have deleted the password in key chain but this doesn't seem to help. I am a bit technically challenged so simple language please. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Fixed!
Two things together have restored connectivity.
1. I changed the name under Settings > General > About > Name from My Name's iPad to iPad of My Name. I read somewhere that iOS 7.0.1 or 7.0.2 (I forget which) sometimes had issues with apostrophes here. Easy enough to test.
2. I then reset (again) the APN settings under Settings > Cellular Data > APN Settings > Personal Hotspot and reentered our provider's info (APN, Username, Password) there.
I don't know WHY it worked, but the personal hotspot is now happily sharing (again) internet connectivity with my MacBook Pro.

Connection timeout error in web report(portal)

Hi Experts,
Points to note about the 500 connection timeout error
1. Error persists only in portal. query/ report works fine in RSRT and Bex Analyser.
2.As per previous discussions tried implementing SAP notes to change ICM parameter for max of 10 minutes.
However, it is said by Basis team that they can change parameter only if all the report gives the same error.
Since all the report works fine they are nt ready to change the parameter.
4. Error: Time exceeds 600seconds
5.This issue arised only after upgrading the system to 7.3. post - upgrade. this report was working fine before.
6. Even in the portal, report works fine when we use ABAP web link.
Please share your suggestions.

In the trace file there is a error message for this report "Could not find a command, masscommand or group command with alias <new task>. It is defined in group . <TaskCollectionGroup>. pls any one help me. This is for 7.31 NW portal

Iphone 5 Screen is Frozen Connection Timeout Error Connection to this app has timed out

I upgraded to IOS 7 just a few hours before my Iphone 5 screen froze and I cannot make changes - I have a Connection Timeout Error with Connection to this app has timed out. With Ok in blue. The screen doesn't respond, I can turn off the phone, tap OK or do anthing. Any advice on how I can reset or fix?

Check for any anti-virus or anti-spyware software you might have. Temporarily disable that to continue. Normally this is what will cause a timeout. I assume you have a good Internet connection?

Hi Sunil,
If you are using this particular cProjects URL for the first time, you should generate the screens using SGEN transaction. Select Web Dynpro for ABAP and give the cProjects application.
Having done SGEN, the page wouldnt take long to open up.
To increase the connection timeout, pl contact your basis guy.
Regards,
Reema.

Connection timeout error trying to connect to wireless network

Going nuts...
I have my Time Capsule plugged into an outlet that runs back to my switch (Netgear) which in turn goes into my modem (AT&T uverse).
(the switch runs out to about 6 ethernet outlets in my house)
Everything was working grand until I screwed something up, no idea what, of course!
I have set my Time Capsule set up...
In the AirPort Utility
AirPort tab
Wireless mode:create a wireless network
Connect using: Ethernet
Internet tab
Connect using: Ethernet
Connection sharing: Off (Bridge mode)
From these settings I can see the wireless network I have set up, but I can't connect to it (get a 'connection timeout' error when trying to connect to the wireless network using my laptop)
When I try to change to Conenction Sharing to: 'share a public IP address' or 'distribute a range of IP address', then I get other errors... (DHCP Beginning and DHCP Ending Address Errors).
Any advice would be great - thanks!

Bridge Mode is the correct setting for your Time Capsule.
To aid in troubleshooting, I suggest that you temporarily move the Time Capsule close to the Uverse router and connect directly to one of the Ethernet ports on that device. Test to see if your wireless is working.
If yes, then move the Time Capsule again and this time temporarily connect to the Ethernet switch to test that way.
Keep working your way outward, testing as you go. If the wireless works on the first test when you connect directly to the Uverse router, at some point, you will find the connection problem. It's almost always something simple, like an Ethernet cable that is not making a good connection with one of the Ethernet ports.

What is a connection timeout? And how do I stop it?

Hi all,
I've recently bought a mac and I don't know what happening but now and then when I try and connect to the net it immediately pops up with "connection timeout" I have no idea why this is happening. I made a few changes to my mac (for example I put on a screen saver and password) and now my internet isn't connecting. It works when I use my iphone as a hotspot but I'm not paying for home connection so that I can use my phone as a modem.
I searched a few forums and this seems to be a massive problem with mac users. What is this all about about? What causes it and more importantly what stops it?
Thanks,
Jay

You're not in the right room to discuss this kind of issue. Anyhow, this message is simply telling you that your internet connection isn't working correctly or isn't configured correctly. Nothing more, nothing less. I would call your ISP's customer service to get it working again.

HT4628 MacBook Pro connection timeout.

I'm running Lion on my MBP version 10.7.5 and I can't connect to my friend's wifi. Every time I try to connect it reads a connection timeout. I can connect to every other wifi network I try but his. I can connect with my iPod and his entire family with their devices but not my MBP. I've read other forums and tried everything. I've done Ethernet and it works fine. I've set my network priority to wifi and even manually set his. I've done the custom location thing and all of that but no luck no matter what I do. I need help.

In support of Nykki, we have same issue with connection timeout. Have trawled the support here and on others and in summary:
Macbook Pro on 10.7.5 software is up to date.
It doesn't always do it - I'm posting from the notebook now.
It hasn't always done it, problem started in last 2 weeks and my daughter with a 13 inch Macbook has the same intermittent problem since two months.
No, it's not helpful to suggest changing routers or blaming firmware on the router - my iphone, ipod touch, kids' imac, wife's ipad and an Apple TV3 all work fine. If one more Apple worker or Apple fan suggests the problem is somewhere other than on my MacBook Pro I'll scream.
Sometimes it manages to connect if I do a shutdown-restart on the notebook.
Yes, I have tried the tricks with deleting the wireless networks using KeyChain access, did not work.
Has Apple itself actually acknowledged this issue - there are thousands of search hits on the topic?
