The wifi internet connection stops

in the middle of a movie or whatever and doesn't come back for hours or days, why, and what can I do?  I have a Linksys router.

Nothing.
It is working as intended.
You use wifi or 3G, not both.

  • I plan to buy an HTC wildfire, will the wifi tethering connect my ipad2 to internet

    I have an iPad 2 wifi version only, I plan to buy an HTC wildfire phone will the wifi tethering connect my iPad to Internet?

    If your carrier supports a the mobile hotspot feature on the phone, it should work fine. I've used both an HTC Incredible and and HTC Thunderbolt with my iPad.

  • WiFi Internet connectivity problems after upgrade to 10.8.4

    After upgrading to MacOS 10.8.4 I am facing regular interruptions to my WiFi internet connectivity. Periodically the internet connectivity is lost and the only way to fix the problem is to turn WiFi off and on again. This happens frequently when I am downloading files at using big bandwidth (more than 1.5-2 MB/s). If I use assist me on the Network preferences tab, it displays an ISP error when the connectivity is down, however I am certain that I do nota have any kind of ISP or router issue since at the same time I have WiFi internet connectivity from my iPad mini, iPhone 4S and Samsung Galaxy S3. Therefore it should be a 10.8.4 issue

  • 3rd gen atv drop wifi Internet connection?

    Why does my new 3rd gen atv drop wifi Internet connection? 2nd gen in bedroom works fine

    Hi Gvegastiger,
    The problem might be just with your iMac, so I will suggest you to check your firewall on your iMac, and if it is on make sure you are allowing incoming traffic in the area you need to work with...
    Second I would check the Proxy settings on your iMac as well under Network profile. Also for troubleshooting purposes leave the IP address DHCP if you have it set static. And Under Network/Ethernet make sure you have it set "Automatically"
    Third make sure you use ether Wireless or just Wired connection, not both. I don't know your network layout but if you have to separate networks that will be a problem when you have both of them enabled on separate networks.
    Let me know if this helps,
    Goran

  • I have an iPad mini - trying to set up a wifi internet connection on Windows 7 laptop.

    Have a new iPad and need to still set it up.  Problem is that it needs to connect to a wifi internet connection which I have set up on my Win7 laptop.  The iPad mini sees the network but can't connect to it.........  What am I doint wrong?  I have set the network up via the adhoc network set up and have done everything as per the turorials I have seen, but it still won't to connect.  Is this possible and if so, how do I do it?  I have tried the ad-hoc network way and the iPad recognises it but can't connect to it.  THANKS A MIL

    Windows 7 Home Basic does not support ad hoc or hosted network functionality (what Connectify and Virtual Router use). At a minimum you would need to upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. Note the Applies to these editions of Windows 7 statement at the right in this article.

    Again using a broadband wireless (WiFi) router is the best way to go presuming its in your budget.

  • Windows APP without real internet connection stops working in time

    Windows APP without real internet connection stops working in time
    Hello all,
    I am trying to get the following to work. We have an intranet page which users need to connect to, to operate some machines. This is done through an windows 8.1 Tablet with an assigned KIOSK mode app (Kios SP Browser).
    This works great as the assigned app is the only thing the user can run and we don't have to really harden the device. One drawback in using the assigned apps is that it needs to be an New App (as Microsoft call it)
    The app is installed on an reference machine which runs in workgroup mode (no domain connection is needed on the devices) and after the reference machine is installed it is imaged with the use of Acronis. After deployment the tablet has no connection to
    internet and the intranet page is wireless put available to the tablets. As a side note, the tablet operates with local accounts and the app is installed using an corporate hotmail account we created just for this purpose.
    I now deployed the image over 20 different tablet devices and this worked great until recently a few devices start to complain it needs to connect to the windows shop before the app can be started. As the devices don't have internet access this can't be
    done and the tablet is rendered useless for the user.
    How can i make the app available without internet connection ? and how can i be sure the app will continue to work over time without connection to the store ?

    Thanks for the reply.
    I can't unblock the internet connection as the wireless network doesn't have any internet connection what so ever. The main purpose is to be able to operate the machinery and nothing else, hence the kios app which is being used to show the intranet page
    which connects than to the devices.
    The problem is that after imaging the app works as expected but after a few days the app stops to work ...
    I found the following website over site loading an app without the needed appx files. It shows an way to capture the files during installation from the windows store.
    https://www.404techsupport.com/2014/06/installing-free-windows-8-modern-apps-without-the-windows-store/
    It is a bit strange to have it this difficult to install apps without the needed store and i think that Microsoft should make this easier. I hope this works better and after a few days i will give the feedback how this handles..
    If anyone knows of a better way .....

  • HT2284 Recurring "connection failed" when selecting TimeCapsule in the sidebar (internet connection works fine).  Clicking "Connect As" starts the cyle over again but ends in "There was a problem connection to the server" message.  Only fix is resetting T

    Recurring "connection failed" when selecting TimeCapsule in the sidebar (internet connection works fine).  Clicking "Connect As" starts the cyle over again but ends in "There was a problem connection to the server" message.  Only fix is resetting TC.
    The TC is the wifi base station, also have AirportExpress on the network, both of which work fine.  The TC has an external disc connected as well, which is also visible in the sidebar but also cannot be connected to.  Several MB computers use the network, all of which either can or cannot connect to the TC disc depending on when it is acting up.
    Any ideas other than clicking "connect as" or powering down the network every time? 

    Read up how to install 5.6 utility into ML.. it is pretty easy.
    I downloaded 5.6
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    Download unpkg
    http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
    Open the dmg to get the pkg.. drag it onto unpkg.. and it will create a directory under desktop with all the files.. drag the application to the utility directory.. or just run it direct.
    Google if you want more explicit instructions.
    Much easier with a real tool instead of a toy.
    Hold the option key when you select firmware update.. all the old ones will appear.
    But this will not work on newer Gen4.. only on every other model and early Gen4. .I do not know when they turned the corner and started this only 7.6 nonsense.

  • Sony Vaio not recognising Wifi/Internet connections since System Refresh ... Help!

    I'm using Windows 8.1 on a Sony Vaio SVE1512C6EW.  It was running really slow, so I did a System Refresh and deleted a few programmes. Now it is not recognising Wifi/Internet connections and Audio doesn't work.  I don't know if I deleted the driver or it was the refresh.  Please help!  

     
    Hi nickisheps, 
    Thank you for visiting Sony Community! 
    Here in Sony Support USA for Vaio, we do not recommend System Refresh right away since your issue was slow performance. You could uninstall programs and check for viruses/malicious programs first, running Vaio or Windows update, etc. You are right about drivers. There is a possibility that some drivers and software are not properly installed or was deleted after the refresh. You may try this first: Go to Device manger -> Network adapter -> select the name of the adapter -> right click and select Uninstall (DO NOT DELETE). Restart the laptop. The default driver will be reinstalled. You may do the same process in Audio, just select Sound, video and game controllers. Check again if you the will connect to the internet.  
    If none of these work then you need to visit Sony's website (based on your location or from where you purchased the unit) and download the needed drivers. 
    Since your Vaio SVE1512C6EW is not a U.S. model and we have limited information about your unit and we do not have the drivers and software that support your computer. We kindly recommend visiting our Sony Global Web site for information on contacting the Sony Support Center in your region at http://www.sony.net/SonyInfo/Support/. 
    Hope these help. 
    Best regards,
    Vincent

  • All of a sudden my internet connection stopped working.

    All of a sudden my internet connection stopped working. It works for every other computer in the house. I have gone to other networks. I have turned on/off my computer. Nothing seems to work. When I click diagnosis connection it is not fixed. Please HELP! It always tells me that I am not connected to the internet yet I have full bars at the top.

    Have you also tried restarting the router?
    If that doesn't work, try creating a new "Location":
    System Preferences > Network
    Select the AirPort from the left hand side
    Click on the Locations combo box and select Edit Locations...
    Click on + to add a new location, call it "Home" (or anything else you prefer)
    Click on Advanced
    Select the AirPort tab and enter your network name
    Select TCP/IP tab. 
    Configure IPv4 Using DHCP
    Now click on Renew DHCP Lease.  After a few seconds you should get an IP address (probably 192.168.x.x)
    Click on Proxies tab.
    Select Auto Proxy Discovery and Use Passive FTP
    Click on OK and Apply, etc.
    Good luck

  • Time Capsule drops wifi/internet connection and flashes amber

    Time Capsule drops wifi/internet connection and flashes amber.  I've tried unplugging it and my modem but it continues to do this every so often.  The time capsule is out in the open, so I don't think it's a heat issue.  It's running firmware 7.7.3.  Anyone else having this issue?  Any suggestions on how to fix it?  It's driving me crazy!

    Bought the time capsule in Oct 2013.  I have a Sagemcom 2864 modem from Bell but used through Teksavvy.  The 5 ghz has been flaky until I upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.1 I think.  I had a closer look at it and it appears that the wifi is ok.  I was thrown off by the wifi symbol being all animated in the menu bar.  I was able to ping the time capsule via wifi.  All the status lights on the modem looked ok.  Next time it happens, I'll see if I can get some more details.  Do you know if there's anyway to get some logs from the airport utility?

  • How do I only use the wifi internet because I don't want to use my mobile data because I don't have Internet on my price plan?

    How do I only use the wifi internet because I don't want to use my mobile data because I don't have Internet on my price plan and its costing me money?

    Well, if you are running iOS 6.0 or later.
    The option supposed to be in Settings>General>Cellular>Cellular Data---Off & Enable 3G---Off
    I think you'd better check the settings in Privacy>Location Services.
    Some items in it need Cellular data like"setting time zone" and "Find my iPhone'.
