Hey Elder25,

How do you resolve the problem of ipad not staying connected to internet. other laptops remain connected but ipad just disconnects after about 5 seconds.

Additional things to try.
Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.
If none of the above suggestions work, look at this link.

Please Help, My macbook won't stay connected to internet idk what to do

Hello, i just bought my macbook pro. Its a Mac OS X ver. 10.5.7 with a 2.26GHz processor.
I have a Netgear 54mbps wireless router WGR614 v8 and a Motorola SB5100 SURFboard Cable modem.
Now the problem im having is with the internet connection with my mac. I live in Virginia and It was working before i went on vacation to tennessee which is an hour behind virginia. It was able to connect with no problems. It was also connecting fine in tennessee as well. But when i came back to Virginia, the mac would connect to my router or atleast say its connected but i can't use the internet at all. I would load either firefox, safari, or itunes store and the page would begin to load and then stop loading in the middle. As if it was freezing, dropping the connection or something. When i look through the airport connectivity, it would stay connected to my router with still no access to the internet. I also checked to make sure i was in the correct time zone with my mac and it was correct.I have a wii, xbox, original pc that are connected to router that operate perfectly. its just my macbook wont connect wirelessly when it used to before i went to tennesse and took it with me. Some of the error messages that i get when i try to use the internet via macbook now are "can't open page because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection" but then minutes later it would connect again, then internet would work. But shortly after it would stop working for a while. and the process continues like a cycle. PLEASE HELP BECAUSE IM CLUELESS. i've looked at many forums but no solution.

I've been having the same problem for the last 2 weeks, because it's a macbook air it's completely useless!
I spent a tenner on a usb/ethernet cable but it's not Mac Compatable, to buy an official one is going to cost ...god knows. But this machine comes with no superdrive, no ethernet, no adapter for an ethernet. The least they can do is make sure the wifi works! I think I upgraded the OS, but I can't be sure if that coincided with the crap internet speeds.
I'm really angry now, I don't have the time to take it down to shop, and looking on the internet it appears this is really common problem. It's a beautiful machine, but if I knew it was going to be this much hassle I wouldn't have bothered. This is the first and last time I will buy a mac.

Also when i am able to temporarily connect to the internet, it runs super slow and then shortly afterward it looses connection completely. My Mac is no more than 2 feet away from my router and modem

Won't stay connected to internet

I bought a new macbook pro 2011 with lion osx last week. I stay connected to the internet at home with no problem,
but when i use it at work (work for government) it kicks me off every 30 seconds and i have to keep looking for and logging
back into the internet......i have a feeling it's a setting i don't have set correctly for wireless communication. Several of my
coworkers have mac's and other types of pc's and they have no problem staying connected. I could not get apple to answer
(thought they were open 24/7????) and the geek squad recommended everything i've done already, ie take down firewall/put
firewall backup/take off smartsurf/reinstall smartsurf.....i can't figure this out, can anyone help? Work is a T3 network.
I have bluetooth and it is on and also set to "wifi".......thanks!

Try restarting while holding the shift key, to get Safe Mode (you WILL have to enter your password). This does one cycle of Disk Repair as the Mac starts up, then loads the minimal number of extensions. If the problem is "cured" your add-ons are the problem.
If you are using DHCP, the Router's Firewall is all the protection you need, and the Firewall on the individual computers can be turned off.
If you are using an Admin account for daily use, consider creating a new Admin, and using it to demote your current account to a "regular" User account. This will give you protection against malware, because nothing can install without putting up an authentication box and demanding the Admin password. Smartsurf would not be necessary after you do this.

IPhone 4 does not stay connected to internet over 3G+

I have an iPhone 4 on the telus network running the latest version of the os 4.3.3. My phone will not stay connected to the Internet most of the time. It looses connection and won't reconnect until I turn on airplane mode and then turn it back off. It also looses connection if I have wifi on and it detects a network but choose not to connect to it. I have restored my phone and it fixed the problem for half a day before it started again. I only have a couple months warranty left, is this covered do you think?

I don't have another phone to try. I took out the sim to check for deffects but it looked fine. Cleaned the sim card with alcohol and cleaned the aim compartment. Phone didn't loose Internet connection all day yesterday, but this morning went to check emails and wouldn't update until I turned airplane mode on then off again.

My Mac won't stay connected to Internet after Leopard upgrade

Suddenly after upgrading to Leopard, both Safari and Mail report that Mac OS X isn't staying connected to the Internet. I'm using AirPort and a cable modem and it's always been reliable before. But now there seems to be something jumpy/fishy going on in the AirPort menu in Leopard's menu bar. The list of available networks changes very often and although my own network remains checked, Network Diagnostics shows that I am indeed getting disconnected often and for long lengths of time. But everytime I restart my Mac, my Internet connection is restored.
I had fully expected BETTER networking in Leopard, not WORSE.

Jorge
So sorry, I have not checked back to Discussions til tonight. You have undoubtedly solved your problem. But just in case not...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107451 is where I learned about Soft and Hard Resetting of the Airport base stations. There is also a Factory reset that's not really on this page.
After I Hard set, I then went into Leopard's new interface for the AirPort Utility. Very straight forward to configure to set your station(s) up again. I've not had a problem since.
Again, soooooo sorry I didn't drop in sooner with this information.

Stay Connected to Internet Dialog Box

When I am connected to the internet, in 20 minute intervals I get a dialog box asking me if i want to stay connected or if I want to disconnect. If I'm downloading a file and don't catch it in time, it just disconnects. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hi Buttersandwichman,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
I am guessing that you are connecting with your internal modem, correct? If so, go to System Preferences > Network > Show: Internal Modem > PPP Options (button under Save Password); uncheck Prompt every __ minutes to maintain connect as well as Disconnect if idle for 10 minutes.
I hope that helps,
Jon

Can't connect to internet while connect with spaeker

I just bought airport express from istudio. I wanna surf the internet while connect the speaker too. how can i do
so i wanna get how to set up this one. I use dlink access point plug from dlink router

Hello yosarena. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
In order to surf the Internet while streaming to the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), the AX needs to be configured to "Join a wireless network."
(ref: AirPort Utility > Select the AX > Manual Setup > AirPort > Wireless > Wireless Mode = Join a wireless network)
This will allow you to connect to the D-Link's wireless network for Internet access and stream to the AX simultaneously.

IOS devices not connecting to Internet while MacBooks does

Hi,
I'm in the process of closing my Verizon Internet and testing a Comcast service. Before unplugging my Time Capsule from the Verizon adsl modem I made sure that all worked ok with the Comcast cable connection. My MacBook worked right away through Ethernet and so it did through wifi when plugging the TC to the Comcast modem. The problem came on our iOS devices, 2 iPhones and 2 iPads, as they did recognize the network but could not connect to Internet.
I called Comcast customer care but as expected they wash their hands as I have Internet on my computer...
Any advise? Is there something else I need to activate?
Thanks
Pablo

Change the names to short no spaces no special characters. For wireless and the TC.
Lock the wireless to on a/n - b/g
Then fix the channel for 2.4ghz.. 1, 6, 11
Those measures usually get the iphone working .. ipad should work also.

Our Ipad and one Iphone won't stay connected to internet radio while the third Iphone does. They are all IOS 5 ?

We have two Iphones and one Ipad. They are all IOS 5. We like internet radio. The Ipad and one of our phones disconnect from the radio program while the third works just fine. Does anyone have any thoughts? Could this be a setting somewhere we missesd? The one phone that works is connected to a different computer for sync and Itunes.

Kenneth-
One other thing you can try, is to reset (reboot) the problem iPad. Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow. The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes. Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.
I'm not familiar with iPhones, but it may be possible to reset them the same way.

Airport Card Won't Stay Connected to Internet

I recently installed an original Airport Card in my iMac DV 400 SE Slot Loading. OS 10.3.9 recognizes it and will occasionally connect to the internet using Safari. But after a minute or so it drops out and is impossible to restart the connection. It will occasionally reconnect but I don't seem to be able to duplicate the steps. Anyone had experience with this?

Try reseating the airport card by removing it and putting it back in, and while you're in there, unplug the antennae wire and plug it back in. Might just be a bad connection.

How to connect to internet while in europe

I will be going to europe on saturday and plan on bringing my laptop with me to check my emails. I just got my macbook and am fairly new at all this and dont understand all the network terminology so please bear with me. What are the different ways I could connect to the internet in Europe? Keep in mind i will be going to Bosnia, where starbucks doesnt exist and I have no idea if the cafes offer something similar like starbucks. There are internet cafes but its kind of far from where i will be staying in the suburbs. Would a dial up connection be best then? what do I need to do? can i bring the router and cable modem over there or is that just not possible? As you can see I am a total newbie at this and need a lot of help. thanks in advance.

I would personally go with a Bluetooth enabled phone which you can also use as a modem via either GPRS or 3G. You mobile service provider should actually be able to assist you with that.
Whiile it can get a little expensive if you do more than just send an receive e-mail although I do find it extremely handy to be able to connect when and where you like and only being limited to mobile coverage.

I can't stay connected to internet. I've changed my location. Same thing. All my other devices are working fine. How can I get my iMac back online?

I am unable to connect to the internet. WiFi, ethernet all working fine. Multiple devices can connect to the internet. Diagnostic on iMac says I'm connected and should be able to access the internet. This is all beyond me. I've changed the location, it appeared to set every thing up. Still doen't work. It must be corrupted so how do I clean it up?

Power Cycle
Power off the router. Unplug it from the wall. Wait for few minutes.
Connect the router back to to the wall.
Power the router back on. Wait until all lights are lit properly. It will take a while.
Restart the computer.
Start up in Safe Mode.
