TS1398 I can connect to my router, but I have to connect (and type password) every 5-10 minutes. Help!

This all started after I updated the iOS from 5 to 6. My girlfriend does not have this problem, and she hasn't updated her iOS yet. This would make it easy to conclude that the operative system is the sinner. This was (and is) my only Apple product, so maybe you - the community - know more than me on this area.
Any thoughts or experiences on the subject?

Solved at another forum http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r23099239-MBP-15-2006-shows-connection-to-networ k-but-internet-fails
Solution: Try removing the following, then restart.
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.network.identification.plist
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.eap.profiles.plist (if it exists)

  • HT204400 My apple tv says that it's connected to my router, but it's not connected to the internet

    I just got the apple tv and have been trying to connect it up.  When I select my wi-fi network it shows that it's connecting, but then it comes back and tells me it's connected to my router, but not connected to the internet (my PC).

    Your router should connected to a modem and the ATV would be accessing your wifi network via router in order to connect to the internet.
    Can you please clarify the issue?

  • Dell Inspiron E1505 connects to E3000 router but no internet, other computers and devices work fine.

    A few days ago one of our laptops dropped its internet connection. I tried everything that I could think offrie including turning off the router and dsl modem and rebooting. I could not get it to connect to the internet, but it would connect to the E3000 network. I finally formatted and reinstalled Windows 7, and I thought it was working but the next day I find that it is no longer connecting to the internet again but still connects to the network.
    Have since uninstalled the firewall and tried running Cisco Easy Setup tool with no luck. I did find however that I can login as guest on the network and have internet access but that is the only way I can get internet access on this computer through the router.
    Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    If you are directly connected to the router can you get online? If you can then I believe the problem is on the main wireless network settings. If ever it won't work, you can reset the router and reconfigure it.

  • Can connect to wireless router but not to the internet

    Please Help, I have a WRT150N and I can connect to my wireless router by it will not connect to the internet from there, even though the internet, wireless, and security lights are lit up. If I plug a cord into the back of the router and then into my computer, I can connect to the internet, but once I disconnect the cable, I can still find and connect to my wireless router, but it will not connect to the internet from here. Under access it says "Local Only", I have the security type set to "Shared" under the security properties, and set to "WEP" with WEP key #1 entered. I have spent about 4 hours working on this problem now and could really use some help. Thanks.

    Type ipconfig /all in command prompt(cmd.exe) to see whether it displays valid and correct IP, netmask, gateway and DNS info. If not, take a look on these cannot connect to wireless network problem and using ping to troubleshoot network problem articles to get more ideas. Hope it helps..

  • Im having trouble getting my wifi, it connects to the router but isnt getting internet.  My room mates and I can connect our iphones and other devices just fine, help would be appriciated

    First time on here and my knowledge with networking and such is very limited, my Mac Pro can connect to the router but when I try to open my browser it wont bring up any webpage.  The only way I can get internet is through an ethernet port, Im basically at a loss for what to do.

    You will find the AirPort icon (looks like this ) on the OS X menu bar. Option (or right) click the icon, and you should be greeted with a drop-down menu. All of the parameters I mentioned should now appear after the name of your Wi-Fi network.
    The meaning of each of the values are as follows:
    PHY Mode = The radio mode that your Mac Pro is connecting with.
    Channel = The radio channel the Mac Pro is connected to.
    RSSI = Received Signal Strength Indication. It's an indication of the power level of the signal as preceived by the Mac Pro's internal Wi-Fi antenna. Typically the higher the RSSI number the stronger the signal. RSSI is measured in arbitrary units. Some manufacterers use a positive scale, others like Apple, use a negative (0 to -100) instead. For the AirPorts, the less negative the better.
    Transmit Rate = Instantaneous maximum date transfer rate of the connection in Mbps (Megabits per second)
    MCX Index = Modulation and Coding Scheme. The MCS value identifies a number of things, including the number of spatial streams used in the Wi-Fi connection between the Mac Pro and the AirPort router. A larger or smaller MCS value is meaningless. Instead, it defines the actual connection type. In turn, the type can play a significantly on the potential bandwidth performance.

  • My iPhone will no longer pick-up the wifi at home(comcast). My mom used to have comcast and I used to connect there as well, but she changed to verison and I connect there, but no longer can get the comcast wi-fi at home.  the wi-fi settings are ok there,

    My iPhone will no longer picks-up the wifi at home(comcast). My mom used to have comcast and I used to connect there as well, but she changed to verison and I connect there, but no longer can get the comcast wi-fi at home.  The wi-fi settings are ok there, but blank at home now.  The phone's network settings are fine because I can join other wifi networks.  I've done a reset with no results.  Is there a manual way for me to restore the comcast wifi from the router?

    First thanks for the reply and second sorry about the confusion.  I was unable to get the full message out, but here's the problem:
    Like I had mentioned, for a long time both me and my Mom had comcast and as soon as I came into both dwellings the phone would automatically jump onto either wifi network.  Then a while ago she verison and used the same Belkin router.  So there was no problem and my phone jumped on her system as usual, but at some point something happened and when I got home I noticed that the phone asked to be put on my system.  I would input the password, but it would say "unable to connect" to the network.  I did the standard things like check the network settings on the phone itself and they were fine.  Then I did a reset (actually twice) with the same result.  It seems like the phone ability to pick-up wi-fi is ok because when I go to my University I can log-in with no problem.  The only thing I noticed is when I look at the settings (on the iPhone) for the router at home the whole thing is blank.  My question is: Is there a manual way to get the phone to pick-up my router?  I need to have it on my network at home because I use DocumentsToGo a lot.  Thanks again for your response again and I hope things are clear now.  Have a great day.

  • Help, Connected To The Router, But Still Not Connecting To Internet

    We bought a router and a wireless adapter a few years ago, I moved out and then moved back. I tried to connect to the network we setup in the first place, but it didn't work and I was told that I had to reset the router, so I did, and I setup a new network, and the computer with the router is working fine, but the computer with the adapter, even after I ran the setup disk on it again, all it does is connect to the router, but I'm still not getting the internet. If anyone has any ideas on how I can remedy this problem I would really appreciate it if you would share it with me.  Thank you.
    Adapter Model # - WUSB54GC
    Router Model # - WRT54G2

    Try and download the driver for the adapter again. It can be found here.
    Also for the router, that can be found here.
