TM Backup to TC, Internet Connectivity breaks during backup,

Prior to the Snow Leopard Time Machine would backup, wirelessly to my Time Capsule without issue.
Since Snow Leopard, many times when Time Machine is backing up, I lose Internet Connectivity. If I stop the TM backup, I immediately regain connectivity. I connect to the TC wirelessly and it is my ONLY access point. I have a different Internet Router, the TC is just a bridge.
I do not lose the Airport connection, the Time Machine backup will finish to success. It seems to mostly happen when TM starts after waking from sleep. If I manually start a TM backup, the problem does not occur. Again, this presented after upgrading to SL.
My Wife's MBP which is still on Leopard, backs up to the TC without issues (no internet connectivity loss).
I did not think to ping other devices on my network during the occurrence of this anomaly. Next time it happens... I will try to ping other devices to see if I have any visibility past the TC (access point). I will report back the results.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

When sending attachments in Gmail in FF, my internet connection breaks

When I try to send an attachment of any type in gmail in Firefox as a browser the attempt stalls, fails and then my internet connection breaks. I've googled this and no one else seems to have this issue. It seems local to my desktop and I've reinstalled FF and tried the beta for 4.0 and it still happens without fail.
It doesn't matter what kind of attachment or size, this happens when I try to send attachments in Gmail.

For what it's worth, I've seen this exact problem from Internet Explorer 8:
 
1. start a new email at the Gmail site in the web browser 
2. click "attach a file" 
3. select a file in the file dialog box & click OK 
4. network connection immediately drops. (I've been pinging Google in the background and the ping gets interrupted exactly when I click OK." 
5. Network connection is down until I go through the Windows 7 "repair network connection" procedure. Apparently the network gateway is lost. 
When this happened, I tried attaching the same file to an email using a *different* Gmail account, and it worked. 
I think this is either a problem with the ISP (Earthlink / Timewarner) or Google. I don't think IE or Firefox is causing the problem.

Regarding internet connection problem during sending e-mail

Hello,
I have done 1 java mail application. Sending/Receiving e-mails are working fine. But during the sending, if suppose, internet connection disconnected, how can I handle and re-connect or how can i give the information to user like "internet connection failed. please try to send again"
please advise.
thanks

You'll get an exception, usually a MessagingException with an embedded
IOException indicating the problem. You can also attach a listener to the
Store or Transport object.
Note that, in general, you'll only learn that the network has disconnected
when you're trying to use it.

[SOLVED] Wireless internet connection problem during installation

Hi to everyone!
I ask you a help in activating my wireless connection.
I tried to install from the recent ISO (201208 - via CD)
but I found some problems in activating a wireless connection in the first steps
of the installation guide.
My laptop is a Hp pavilion dv5 1020-el, with an Intel wireless 5100AGN internal interface.
So I did:
1) iwconfig to see my devices and the system detects my wlan0.
2) followed the Wireless_Setup page from wiki to set it
3) used wpa_supplicant and passphrase to set my ESSID name and wpa key.
4) iwconfig then showed wlan0 associated with my ESSID, with Power ON and Encryption OFF.
I could not try a connection via ping command.
Even wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf did not work.
Maybe the problem is with Encryption OFF.
Thanks for your attention!
EDIT:
I solved this way,connecting to an open wireless open network:
1.(from boot) I created a profile in /etc/network.d/ from /etc/network.d/examples
2. started a # netcfg 'my_ESSID'
3. # ping -c 3 www.google.com
All is ok! I can install Arch Linux from my smartphone as a router.
But I couldn't connect to a WPA protected wireless network yet.

Thanks to everyone who responded to my question. The company who provides the wireless internet service to my apartment complex moved the antenna next to my unit and claims he boosted the power. As the saying goes, "The squeaky wheel gets the grease". I complained almost daily to the apartment manager and she, in turn, griped to the provider which eventually led to the "solution" above. Using Skype is still shaky as the person I'm calling isn't always able to make out what I am saying. So, I use Skype only when I REALLY need to make a phone call. Even though none of your suggestions solved my problem, I am still very, very grateful to all of you who tried. Thank you very, very much! -- Matt

Internet connection breaks while loading a QuickTime-Stream

I'm not able to watch a QuickTime-Stream. The video seems to load forever and while loading my interntet connection on my Mac mini breaks. Same situation on any other computer at home. I fear there's a problem with my router. Can you help me?

Definitely has to do with the iPhone. Haven't left it connected lately and have not experienced any connection problems at all. The model is 837jp. I'm not worried about it now that I know what is causing it. I'll just charge the phone with the power outlet and only connect it when backing it up. Problem solved. Thanks, PC Tester, for your help.

After Mountain Lion update, internet connection breaks frequently.

Anyone else experiencing this? Seems that my older AEBS is responsible for frequent disconnects? I also have a newer AX in bridge mode which appears to be operating normally. Software is up to date.

Help!! I'm on an unstable internet connection in Nepal (can't be helped or changed), and the download keeps failing. Any way to continue the download when internet reconnects?

The title should say it all, but to go in more detail, here's the situation:
I run a production company and I have to deliver a project file to my counterpart in the next two days. Before I left for Nepal I switched from my desktop to my laptop, and did not realize my laptop had an older version of Premiere installed. So when I went to open the project file, it would not open it because it says it was created in a newer version and cannot be opened. So I've been trying and trying and trying to download the new program via the creative cloud desktop app. Obviously this is going to take a long time with internet speeds in Nepal, and there is absolutely NO way around this. Developing country, power goes on and off without warning, etc.
The thing I'm having a hard time with is that each time my computer disconnects from the internet, then reconnects, the enormously long download has to completely start over again. I even got as far as 28% on one of my overnight downloads only to have to start over again in the morning when I woke up because the connection wavered in my sleep. UGH!!
My main question is this: is there anywhere (ANYWHERE!!!) that I can connect directly to the adobe servers to download this program with included internet breaks, kind of like FTP, or Dropbox, or anything of the sort. It's incredibly frustrating (and kind of a huge Adobe oversight) that if the internet connection breaks during a download, that you have to start over again. Why can't it pick up again when the connection is restored? Is there any way around this? Please please help, I am on a very tight deadline before Xmas and need any help I can get!!
Thank you for your understanding.
Namaste

Erin I am sorry you are facing difficulty downloading the Creative Cloud software. It can be frustrating when you do not have access to high speed stable Internet.
You can attempt to download the base installers and updates by following the directions listed at:
Adobe CC 2014 Direct Download Links: Creative Cloud 2014 Release | ProDesignTools
All Adobe CC 2014 Updates: The Direct Download Links for Windows | ProDesignTools
You may want to attempt to utilize some form of download management as the main issue seems to be the stability of your connection.
There is not currently a method to resume downloads within the Creative Cloud Desktop application. There is download management included though it may not be enough to compensate for the current Internet connection. If you are curious you can find additional details on how to resolve download errors at Error downloading Creative Cloud applications - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/error-downloading-cc-apps.html.

[SOLVED]Establishing internet connection (using Virtual Box)

Hi there,
Recently I tried to install Arch, but I got a problem with the internet connection. During the installing process there were no problems - I had internet right away without any configuration (so I skipped that part in the "Establish internet connection"-part on the Beginners' Guide.)
After the first reboot however I had no internet connection and
ping -c 1 google.com
gave me
ping: unknown host google.com
, so I went back to the Beginners' Guide and then tried out
ip link
which gave me two entrys, the second beeing:
2: eth0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether 08:00:27:77:ab:fb brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
Because this connection was down I tried
ip link set eth0 up
, but it didn't change anything at the output of
ip link
(still DOWN).
Can someone see from this information where the problem is?
Additional infos:
-I have a wired connection to a wireless accespoint
-Arch Linux is running in VirtualBox

Yup, that's the command I was looking for
If that didn't do it, then it is definitely something that you can/should seek help for here on the forum. If you simply don't have the time/energy right now to learn a bit more, then you can certainly come back to arch another time. But if you have just a little bit of time and a little bit of energy, this seems like a *great* learning opportunity.
The forums are here to help - don't take the abrupt points to the wiki as a sign we wouldn't help, we just want to make sure you read up on the basics first, then if that fails (which it now has with the dhcpcd command) then we can dig deeper. But in the end it's up to you if you want to push forward now or not. I'm confident we could solve this issue relatively quickly, as long as your on board with pushing forward.

Update Connection Proxy with temporary internet connection

Hi,
I have a lot of systems which are not allowed to connect to the internet - and even are not allowed to connect to a system, which is connected to the internet.
Is it possible to connect the Update Connection Proxy only temporary to the internet, to download the patches. Then disconnect it and connect it to the clients to do the update on the clients.
Or is a internet connection required during the update.
Regards,
Hans-Juergen

It is not possible to use smpatch/updatemanager in a disconnected environment regardless of whether or not a Sun UC Proxy (aka LPS) is being used.
The reason is that there will be no way to get the data to the disconnected environment. All of the LPS download mechanisms are driven by demand from a client; there are no mechanisms for bulk downloading data which has not been requested.
So unless your clients are able to connect to the LPS while it is temporarily connected to the internet, Sun UC will not work for patching your clients.
Your best option at present would be to use patch clusters or to look into the Sun Connection 1.1.1 or xVM Ops Center software.

Time Machine stuck on preparing backup with in turn breaks internet connectivity.

Hi all!
I recently started using Time Machine (on a 1TB USB 2.0 external hard drive) on my MBP (Early 2011, 13") and I've noticed that it constantly gets stuck on the "Preparing backup" stage, which can only be unstuck by pulling the drive or hard rebooting the computer (otherwise it gets stuck on the gray post-logout screen forever). What's more interesting is that while Time Machine is stuck I am unable to use any of my browsers because DNS resolution fails outright (although I can still visit IP addresses and perform manually DNS queries and start SSH sessions in Terminal.app). If I pull the drive or reboot the computer, my internet connectivity is restored. As a relatively new Mac user this behavior is quite puzzling; has anybody else encountered this type of problem?
Thanks!
Max

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including your login items.
Launch the application(s) and test. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)

Lost internet connection while restoring iphone 4S from backup after iOS 6

Hi everyone..
I have just updated my iPhone 4S to iOS6 yesterday. It was iOS5.1.1 and was in jailbreak mode before the update.
I did sync my iphone and did the 'Backup' as well before the update by using my latest iTunes via my laptop.
The iOS6 update was successful.
However, the 'Restore from backup' failed.. many times!! Everytime I tried to Restore from backup, i lost internet connection towards the end of the 'restore in progress' process so it was never complete. I had to pull out the iphone cable or restart my pc every single time that happened. Because i cannot get an internet connection after that happened. I cannot connect to any wireless network, so I had to restart the pc!
(the iPhone says 'Restore complete' as soon as I pulled out the cable. But phone stays as NEW phone, none of my backup data was restored).
During the 'restore from backup' attempts (via iTunes 10.7 on laptop), I have tried:
- Restoring to factory settings first and then restore from backup = tried many times and still failed.
- Uninstalled Apple mobile device and iTunes and re-installed them = still failed.
- Switched OFF the phone and hold the Home button while connecting to the laptop. Restored to factory settings, then tried to restore from backup = still failed!!
- switching to different USB ports on my laptop including USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 = no luck, still failed.
NOTES:
-Laptop is on Windows 7 and have had NO such problems so far. I have been using iPhone since 3GS.
-Internet connection is via wireless router, steady connection.
-My 3GS was on jailbreak mode before. I bought iPhone 4S and successfully restored from my '3GS backup' without any problem.
-iTunes 10.7 installed/updated.

Nevermind.. I just found the solution to my problem.
I copied the Backup folder into my mate's laptop and did the 'Restore from backup'.
All is good now.. Only need to re-install my apps, soon after all will be back as per normal!

Following hard drive failure on iMac running Maverick I have recovered from TimeMachine backup but now app store does not connect. All other internet connections normal. Does anyone know of a fix?

In "purchases" while in my App Store, Mountain Lion says, "an error has occurred" and the green 'download' button is grey and I cannot re-start the download. I was abroad when I purchased this app and during download, my internet connection was lost. At the time, Apple was still offering the e-chat, so I did that and the man was very helpful and it was a quick fix, so my download button turned green again, and I was able to begin the download. BUT during the download, I was kicked offline once again, and I decided to wait until I was back in the USA. I will go in to an Apple store and ask assistance, but if there is something I am missing, I'd like to try that first. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Welcome to the support forums.
Please ask this question in the Mac App Store forum where they can better assist you.

HT4569 In case of lost internet connection during mountain lion download from app store, do i have to start over?

In case of lost internet connection during mountain lion download from app store, do i have to start over?

How do I speed this up. I have a fast internet connection but this is obviously not right.
The speed of the downlaod is dependant on the speed of your Internet connection. "I have a fast Internet connection...," doesn't actually mean anything unless you provide some numbers.
I have a cable Internet connection with 32 Mbps download speeds, but if you have DSL, you would probably be limited to 1.5 Mbps. Some would call both of these connections "fast," but obviously one is faster than the other.
What is the speed of your Internet connection?? Don't say, "fast."

Time Machine backups slow down TC internet connection

I'm having a problem with my TC internet connection slowing down dramatically. When I connect my DSL modem directly to my Mini, it's fine. When I connect it to the TC there are big slow downs off and on. I'm wondering if the backups done by TM slow down the internet connection and the network as a whole.

Over ethernet no, it would have almost no effect.. over wireless yes.. it can have a big effect.
How big are the backups generally? These should only be incremental and relatively small.
Measure your actual speed of copying a file to the TC.. if you can put numbers to it, that will help. Use the Activity Monitor and see what is the average speed copying a file or when TM is backing up.
Any improvements to the wireless speed will reduce the time the backup runs and how much time your internet is slow. Wireless is highly range and signal dependent. You might find a network rearrangement where you use the TC close to the Mini can solve the issue.. especially if you can connect to it by ethernet.. and then wireless bridge if you need to.
