Suddenly going at a snails pace Apple, ISP or Phone Company?

Hi,
My internet connection has been very unpredictable recently. The contract I have with my ISP is for 100MPS service and I was usually getting under 10MPS and now I'm barely getting 100KPS. What happened?
I called Apple, they asked some questions and said to call the ISP; I called the ISP, they asked some questions and told me to call the phone company; I called the phone company and got irate when they told me to call Apple again and so they sent someone to my home today to change the router and check the lines -- all is okay.
In fact, when the guy plugged his Windows based machine directly into the router he got 80-90MPS but when I connected with both AirMac and directly with a LAN cable I got 6MPS download/2MPS upload from the same speed test site. He said to call Apple. When explained the situation he threw up his hands and gave up. He wasn't being rude he just really had no idea what to do.
Does anyone here? Apple won't be open for me (here in Japan) till Monday. I'd at least like to sound like I know what I'm talking about when I phone them.
My router is RT-S300SE and my phone company is NTT, the ISP is OCN.
Any ideas?

Apple is not here.
We can't help you here because we are users just as you are.
You are going to have to escalate this with Fedex. Call and ask to speak to manager.

  • I cant find the number of contacts in my iphone IOS7 by either going in thru the contact appl or the phone

    How can I find the number of contacts in my iphone. When i go in thru either the contacts application or thru the phone i don't see the number at the bottom of the contacts. I have IOS7. I also saw in one of the postings that you could find it thru the Group in the upper left hand corner but I don't know where to find that. Thank you for your help

    If you are a Verizon user try this:
    Open the phone and dial *228. This is a Verizon over-the-air programming number.
    When the system answer press 1 for "Program or activate your phone"
    Wait for the call to disconnect. You should get a prompt stating "Settings updated."
    Double tap the Home button to bring up the recently used apps list at the bottom.  Locate the Phone, Message, and Contacts apps, swiping if necessary, and press and hold until they jiggle then press the red minus sign to stop them.
    Wait a 3-5 minutes.
    Try your phone again and see if it's fixed.

  • Apart from the lock button problem in iphone 5 the display brightness suddenly goes blank and becomes normal after locking and unlocking the iphone. The Apple service centre in India is denying to service the iphone as it was purchase in USA even thoug it

    Apart from the lock button problem in iphone 5 the display brightness suddenly goes blank and becomes normal after locking and unlocking the iphone. The Apple service centre in India is denying to service the iphone as it was purchase in USA even though the iphone is in warranty.

    iPhones do not have an international warranty.  Warranty is valid only for the country of purchase.  This is most likely because different countries require different iPhone models.  Not reasonable to expect all countries to maintain stock for all models.

  • My iMac is less than one year old.  Without warning, the screen suddenly goes black.  It used to happen occasionally, but is now happening all the time without warning.  What is Apple doing to correct the problem?

    My iMac is less than one year old. Without warning, the screen suddenly goes black.  It used to happen ocasionally, but now it happens all the time.  Numerous people have posted about this issue. Why hasn't Apple solved the issue.  For what I paid my computer, I expected more from the product than I have gotten.  I was a PC person for years and most of my associates told me that I needed to get a mac...I am starting to regret having taken their advice.

    Sorry you're having this problem.
    A few years ago we had a similar issue on one of our machines, it was an early MacBook. Ended up being a cracked circuit connection on the motherboard. Changes in temperature caused the crack to expand and contract resulting in a shut-down followed by an automatic reboot. Sometimes over-and-over. I understood from AppleCare at the time that those symptoms could have also been any number of things including a intermittent issue with a powersupply.
    If you take it back to the Apple Store at some point, I would ask them to have it run some CPU intensive tasks that closely resemble what you are doing when the screen goes black. It took us several try's to find the problem. Calling AppleCare each time to discuss it and troubleshoot before making the trips to the Apple Store really moved things along. In fact, it wasn't until the Apple Store had cracked the case from the inside that things kicked into a higher gear and AppleCare phone support sent out a pre-paid FedX package to send it to a refurbishing facility. Never a problem since and I know the people who have the machine today.
    PS Can identify with the trip to the Apple Store, our closest one is in Knoxville, 2hrs from us.

  • Monitor suddenly goes dark

    My monitor has recently started suddenly going dark.  I get a little blue box that says "No signal, analog" and then the computer keeps running but the monitor won't come back on till I shut down and disconnect the power cord 2 or 3 times. This happens in Safari, Firefox, and Logic.  It may happen in other apps but those are the ones I use most frequently.
    My computer is a 2007 Mac Pro dual core intel xeon.  The graphics card is an ATI Radeon X1900 XT.  The display is a VX2255.
    Tanks,
    Jon

    I get a little blue box that says "No signal, analog"
    That message comes directly from your display, not from the Mac.
    Consider replacing your aging graphics card with an Apple-firmware 5770, about US$250. It works in every model Mac Pro and drivers are in 10.6.5 and later.

  • IPhone 4 battery was good for a month and suddenly goes dead within 6 hours

    I have been running my iPhone 4 (iOS 4.1) for a month without any problem.
    Suddenly, two days ago (although I haven't changed anything) the battery goes dead in less than 6 hours...
    When I touch the phone, I notice it's warm. I have checked if any app was abusing of the multitasking (by killing all running app in the multitask bar) or the location services (you can tell by the little compas icon next to the battery icon), but it didn't change anything.
    I think the last thing I have done, is to purchase my first Multitask application called Avertino. I have since deinstalled it (since I believed it was the root cause of my issue), but no result.
    None of my other apps are abusing of the Push Notifications. I am using Push Emails with my Exchange Server, but this hasn't change in years... So this can't be the issue...
    Anyways... Something is running and draining my battery, but I don't know what... Reset and Restore hasn't help, but maybe you could?

    Speharpre, I wanted to let you know I've figured out what was causing my battery problems, and it may be affecting you, too. I checked wifi, 3G and background apps, but none of these were causing the issue.
    In the end, it's my Exchange accounts Push email that was draining the battery so quickly. With Push turned on, the battery drained between 10 and 12% per hour, but as soon as I switched the Push function off, the battery drain went down to about 1%.
    All day I've been turning push on for an hour, then off for an hour, the back on for an hour, etc... and each time I switch it back on, I see exactly the same rapid drop in battery.
    Still haven't figured out how to fix the problem. I'm going to try deleting the account from the phone and re-adding it, and will also call our server tech support to see if it could be an issue at their end. Either way, I'll let you know.

  • How can I pair with Apple TV without going to set up on Apple TV?

    How can I pair with Apple TV without going to set up on Apple TV?

    Sign up for what? All you need is airplay enabled on ATV, then when iPad is on the same network you double tap home button, swipe (left to right motion) and you will bring up the volume/brightness controls, along with airplay. Tap on airplay (rectangle with triangle in it) and select ATV, toggle ON mirroring.
    The only way to mirror the iPad is wirelessly through ATV or by purchasing the adapter and connecting directly to your TV. Bluetooth via your Blu-Ray player won't help with this.

  • Adobe Media Encoder Slows Encoding Process to Snails Pace

    I am having real issues when exporting from After Effects CC to Media Encoder CC or when I import directly from AME. It happens on one particular comp and visibly slows to a snails pace in the output preview at the same point every time. I have gone into the project to see if there is anything untoward but I don't see anything out of the norm. It's a 6 minute animation with some video. I have 6 projects like this, each one contains the same mix of images and video and each is approx 6 mins. These took no more than 40mins each to export through AME, this one however has taken 3hours already and is only halfway through. This is the 3rd time I've tried to export it - any advice??
    One thing I did do was clear my cache and memory in order to resolve an issue where after effects was trying to replace a font that it thought was missing. Not sure if that could have caused this. Has anyone else seen or experienced this?
    Macbook Pro 2.6Ghz i7
    16GB Ram
    500GB SSD
    OS X 10.9.2

    First thing to check is what is on the Timeline at about the 50% point. Do you have an odd Asset there?
    Do you have a gap in the Video at about that point?
    Then, do you have adequate defragmented free space on the destination HDD?
    Good luck,

    my iphone 4s with ios 7 suddenly colllapsed. It appears the apple and turns on and off, always showing the apple.
    I try to connect it to itunes but when it tries to install the software again it appears error 4013. i tried changing the usb port anda the connecting cable buit it doesnt work. what shall i do??

    Did you already check these suggestions?
    Check USB connections
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    Common errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response”, and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you see your error after changing your USB connections, continue to the next section to troubleshoot your hardware.

  • My iPhone 4S on iOS7 is stuck on Apple Logo, and it goes off, then back to Apple Logo again for hours. Pressing home button together with sleep button does not help. Plugging the phone to Mac and restart does not help either. What do I do?

    Have not backed up for months, so prefer not to lose the data.
    Thank you for your help in advance.

    Restore iPhone with iTunes on computer. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time of holding both buttons. Click the Update or Restore button that iTunes offers.

  • I bought my Mac Air 13' in August. Black screen problems constantly happens. I asked some of my friends who also use Air. They share the same experience. Overall, it is a pretty good computer. But it bothers me when I do work and it suddenly goes black.

    without more information, I assume you mean a blackout from sleep issue.
    Go to system preferences > energy settings > raise the "turn display off" setting up to as needed, say 5 mins. or 10 mins.
    AND ...
    unchecked the "Put hard disks to sleep when possible" in both the battery and power adapter tabs.
    test it and check back

  • 20"iMac Display Suddenly Goes Black

    While I am using my iMac, occasionally suddenly goes black. If I hit a key (usually the space bar), it comes back as if I had put it to sleep.
    What is happening? What should be done? What can I do?
    Thanks for your help and information.

    "Answered on another forum"
    What a way to be helpful! I went through your posts and searched "display" and I did not find this mysterious answer you talk about.
    I'm having the same issues on my Intel Core 2 Duo 20" iMac. if ANYONE could post a solution, I'd appreciate it.
    The computer is still working correctly. It is not on sleep mode. I've press the power button and it goes to sleep, but then when I wake it up it repeats the black screen a couple of times until it finally settles on letting me work.
    What is the point of user support forum if there are no moderators around to help people out? :/
