Firefox is unstable when Wi-Fi connection dropped. Very silly. When connection dropped, I want to look other tabs that already loaded but popup message "Firefox is not responding" WTF??

Internet Connection drops when incoming telephone ...

On 14th December 2011 during a period of very high winds and heavy rain an incoming telephone call caused the internet connection to drop and it eventually restored itself after about 2 hours. When I answer a call the internet connection drops after about 30 seconds and then reconnects after about a further 40 seconds. All incoming local calls cause the internet connection to drop. As far as I can tell incoming calls from other exchanges seem to be OK. Incoming calls from mobile phones sometimes cause the internet connection to drop. The line is unaffected by outgoing telephone calls. I have a BT HomeHub 2B plugged into an upstairs telephone socket and connected by ethernet to my PC. I have another telephone socket downstairs, each socket is fitted with a filter. I have have tried every combination of my two standard telephones and 4 filters in each socket and every local call causes the internet connection to drop and reconnect. I think it very unlikely that both phones and 4 filters have become faulty at the exactly the same time. I have connected the Home Hub and telephone with a filter to the test socket and asked a friend on the local exchange to call me and the internet connection dropped and reconnected as before. Since moving to this house 2 years ago I have had four previous interruptions to the broadband service all of which were caused by problems probably at the exchange. The last one took 8 days to correct after countless calls to the "Help Line". Their fall back position is always to assume that there is no problem with the BT line. So I am not even going to try to explain this over the telephone. This is the information on the BT Home Hub Event Log, it is typical for every occurrence of the problem. Dec 26 11:42:42 2011 ERR 2011-12-26T11:42:42Z cwmp: mt_cwmp: session error: Could not resolve host Dec 26 11:43:19 2011 (1035438.010000) RTNL: Received ERROR reply 'No such process' for message type 0x19 Is this a problem with the Homehub, the line, or at the exchange?

not sure I read your post correctly but are you saying if someone from another exchange phones then the broadband is ok and it only drops if someone from your own exchange phones?
if the possible sollution from chris6273 does not work, and you have already tried the test socket then I would contact the mods for assistance http://bt.custhelp.com/app/contact_email/c/4951
the mods can take up to 3 days to reply

Internet Connection Drop Outs when remote administ...

I did not want to trouble anyone here if I thought it unnecessary but now I feel that I do need some assistance so this warrants opening a new thread.
BT Infinity Option 2 customer with BT HH 4 and its separate modem - not hacked so cannot read any useful information or login to see what is going on and both BT and the manufacturer long ago removed the open source code of the modem.
I am quite confident now that these disconnections happen when a remote server/attacker attempts to gain access to my network. These can be from China, Iran and other places too. Sometimes Ministry of Defence? I don't know why I get these connection attempts and most of the time I see BT HH 4 does block these so why I get disconnected I have no idea?
I made a post in an old thread before opening this thread and said it was due to firmware upgrade but I misread the date! It was not updated since the 8th of May I think. These disconnections have been happening only this past 4-7 days with the most 4 days with intensity greater than the 3 before. I am not 100% certain it is caused by the remote administration that is blocked.
What happens when this takes place is the BT servers are then unreachable sometimes and I cannot regain a connection for up to 3 hours at a time, usually it is 5-10 mins max though. Without looking at my event log, any ideas?
I want to get different gear now and never wanted to use BT equipment anyway because I want greater control and options to configure. I would like to go with DD-WRT or OpenWRT Router with Integrated VDSL v2 modem. Anyone here that may suggest one that supports either of these open firmwares? Not so much the concern to prevent any security holes or backdoors but just as much if not more for versatility and configuration and just having control over my network. being able to do upgrades when I want and not when my ISP decides needs doing. And before you say BT do not have backdoors then why would they admit they can remote login to devices and storage contents with their pwerline adapters even. I remember reading a news article quoting BT as admiting this. Anyway, that is not my main concern here, as much as privacy and security is not a crime it is rather rare online. First I need to get to the root cause of this.
BT HH 4 is not reporting any DDOS attacks and even if it were I would not expect to experience any disconnection. I used to get tons of floods from DDOS attacks years ago when using Netgear routers and never exeprienced any downtime, but that was with another ISP. I don't detect any malware or anything like that and rarely download anything on this machine, I know web browsing can infect a system but I don't think that is it.
I want to go back to how I used to do things. Any help with this is appreciated. I will need to get my router login details because I was never given those when I singed up with BT Infinity Option 2. I don't even know what my BT email is but do believe there is a way to recover that under my account. **In the past we have had intermittent connection drops and loss of sync but this is not the same right now.
Edit:
** Just to clarify that was before we upgraded to BT Infinity Opt 2. This is the first time any probs with this service since upgrade and that must be about 6 months or more now.

When running BT HH diagnostic it printed out that the username for login had changed and needed resetting or for me to enter my own in that I was NOT given! Anyway, when going to select manual reset it had not changed from default at all so I think this is just some default BT diagnostic that is false. I realise that other BT customers are affected by this with the BT HH5 but mine is HH4...my posting probably isn't as clear right now as I have not slept as much past few nights trying to figure this out. This is happening at different times of the day but more often during early hours.
So I am getting these WGET TLS error(s)
How do I enter in log excerpt from BT HH? Forums says my post exceeds 20K chars...

Airport connection dropping off when computer sleeps

Starting with the latest 10.4.8 update my airport connection drops when the computer goes to sleep. No amount of configuring will get the computer to recognize my airport. Turning off the power to the airport, waiting, and re-connecting does no good. The only way to get wireless is to restart. Once restarted the airport connection is re-established without any configuration and continues to be fine until the computer goes to sleep. Hard wiring ethernet works at all times without problems.

thanks,
i read the doc, looked in the system prefs where my re-connect was set to "preferred" and there was only one wpa network listed. i deleted it from the list then re-added per the apple document. will see if this works.
in my own mind i don't think this is the solution but am keeping an open mind. the weird thing about my situation is that after the computer sleeps there are no available networks under the airport menu. i know in fact there are 4-6 in my area. after restarting the 4-6, including mine, networks are all there and my network has been connected to.

Connections drop when using Cisco Anyconnect Secure Mobility Client

Folks I have a strange issues. I have a few laptops that I'm testing using the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client Network Access Manager. We like the interface and overall are happy, but have one nagging issue. Periodically the connection drops when using the client, and the only way to reconnect is to choose the Network repair option on the client. That fixes it just fine, but we shouldn't have to do this. The same clients using the built in WIndows supplicant do not have this problem. We are on version 3.0.07059.

Right now I'm testing on a single access point (autonomous) with WEP! The same laptop works fine without the Cisco client. Usually it is several hours, 12 or more when it happens, but I've seen it less than that. And I've seen it up for over a day and a half. At this point I just don't trust the client to roll out to a larger audience.

WRT54G Ver. 2: When modifying any of my wireless settings connection drops.

Using a WRT54G Ver. 2 router.When I modify any of my wireless settings my connection drops as soon as I save the settings. I've tried resetting the router and updating the firmware, neither have worked. I've had no problems with this up until now, it's worked perfectly before. I'm not sure what could be causing this problem.

When you change your wireless settings, any user who does not have the correct settings (SSID, encryption method, and key) in their wireless adapter is supposed to be kicked off the network ! This is what wireless security is all about.
To fix this problem, when you update the router's settings, you should be using a computer that is wired to the router.

Wrt160n wireless connection drops when phone calls come in

I operate 2 laptops on Vista and 1 desktop on XP . I have cable connection for intenet and phone. When a phone call comes in, my connection drops on all 3 computers. Comcast has told me I have the same freceuncy for my phone and internet, therefore, I need to change the frecuency on my modem? or router? using my ethernet cable connected directly to the router (? ).
I am trying to download the wizard but get no where. I went to the default IP address 192.168.1.1 mentioned in the owners manual, left USER name blank, and wrote admin on password, and can't get in, all I get is Not Authorized.
How can I manage to change the freceuncy to avoid my connection from being lost every single time someone calls us thru the home phone, or I pick up the phone to make call?
Help please!!!

If the admin password is not working then,you have to reset the router.Reset the router for 20 seconds and then,try to open the setup page..On the setup page,Under the Wireless tab,Change the Channel Width to 20MHz only and Channel to 11.

Broadband connection drops when a phone call is re...

Hi
I am new to this forum so please let me know if I don't supply all the necessary information.
For a couple of months now we have had a consistent problem with the broadband connection dropping when an incoming phone call is received, prior to this it had been fine for a long time. After making the normal user checks, as recommended by BT, the problem persisted. A BT engineer visited my house and was able to reproduce the fault at the master socket. He traced the line back, via the manholes under the street to a connection box outside the village. After working hard for four hours he seemed to have fixed the fault and was able to demonstrate streaming video uninteruppted by an incoming call. He told me that he had solved the problem by re-routing the line, he also replaced the mark 2 router with a mark 3 router. Twenty four hours later the problem returned and is again absolutely consistent - even with just the router connected to the master socket the broadband light will go out when an incoming call is received. On phoning the helpline I was told that there was a problem at the exchange, which should be fixed within 24 hours, but it wasn't and I didn't hear back. Further investigation showed that both of these issues had been marked as resolved. We are a long way from the exchange and have had a history of problems with both the line itself and the exchange. In the past the hard working BT engineers have always managed to get things sorted out when they have visited.
This time I am struggling, as I can't seem to find the right approach to BT to persuade them to build on the work that the engineer who came out so recently did - I always seem to end up describing the problem from the beginning and then being told that it is my internal wiring that is at fault, nobody will acknowledge any of the work that has been done by the engineer that visited or the person that approached the exchange.
Sorry for such a long post, but it is very frustrating - I have considered changing the phone number so that nobody can make any incoming calls, but then I would have no phone!!
Any ideas would be gratefully received.

Hi John
Thank you for your very prompt response. Clicking on that link does not show up any problems in my area or with my line. I have limited technical knowledge, but what you say about high resistance does fit the facts. We have had a lot of problems over the years, most of which have been traced back to faults between the box at the edge of the villagae and our house - we have had the line replaced more than once, although I'm not exactly sure what that involved. In the past the fault that recurred was very slow speed and dropping of the broadband connection, this is different now in that the speed is actually now quite good for our area, but the connection drops when a phone call is made or received. I did have the fault logged with BT, but it has now disappeared from "track faults" without being resolved.
When everything is working it is a very good service. My friend in an isolated village in North Wales had BT broadband as soon as his local exchange was enabled. It has provided faultless service ever since, at a higher speed than I can get on the outskirts of a major city.
Thanks for the support, it has made me feel much less isolated - I'll keep reporting it.
Regards
Richard

Internet connectivity drops when transitioning LTE/WiFi

I have an iPhone 5S 32G on Verizon using ios 8.1.1
Mail, messaging, browsing works using WiFi at home (known state). Ride to work phone is not in use and LTE connected. Get to work and phone connects to office WiFi. Internet connectivity (email hangs in 'Checking for mail...', iMessages do not arrive, etc.). Ending apps (flick off screen) and restarting does not work. Power down/up and WiFi again connects (and LTE) and internet connectivity is fine. Go out of office to lunch (WiFi drop, onto LTE) and intenet connectivity drops again. Power cycle, LTE comes up and connectivity fine.
Note this does not occur every time (sometimes I can go from home to work WiFi OK and vice-versa.) But it happens enough to be annoying. Silly to have to power cycle on transition. IIRC this was not an issue pre iOS 8.x series.
I have reset network settings, rebooted, turned WiFi on/off to no avail so far. Any ideas or anyone else seeing similar issue?

I am having the same problem. My MacBook, iPad, iPhone, and even the PC all lose internet connectivity;but home sharing still continues to function properly on ATV2.
I'm not too savvy on routers and modems, but could the problem be my router's capacity?

Time Capsule ethernet connection drops when backup on Windows XP

Hi,
I have my Time Capsule connected with ethernet cable to my computer (Windows XP Pro SP3) everything works just fine until I start a backup from the PC.
The disk is connected to my PC as a network drive and I use the softare Cobian for the backup.
The connection drops after few minutes (not even 12G) of backup and I then can't access to the Time Capsule or internet...nothing works anymore.
After a reboot I can access to the Time Capsule again.

Connection drops when devices removed

I Decided to move the base station for our cordless phones last night, whilst I did this my wife was using the net.
On disconnecting the phone base the net connection dropped, plugging it back in brought the connection back. As an experiment I then removed the filter from the master socket, this filter isn't connected to anything, and got the same result.
The master socket has two extension cables wired off it, both installed by BT. One leads to a socket for the phone base station and the other leads to a socket for the router. All sockets are filtered.
Seems a bit odd to me that taking things out of the loop should cause the connection to drop, is that normal?

Possibly a loose wire but as it's all working fine now I'm just going to ignore it.
That was the one and only time in 6 years at this address I've ever felt the need to move the phone base station so it can just stay where it is for another 6 years

Ongoing Broadband connection drops and slow speed ...

Over the last few weeks i seem to be having random issues with my Broadband connection and teh connection has become very unstable and unreliable
The connection will randomly drop and re-establish, often at a much lower speed that it should be. I regularly get around 3 - 4MB download speed which is good for my area but often find that when it reconnections i get around 1MB. To resolve the issue i usually have to restart my hub (BT HH2) which then usually gets me back to the normal speed.
Luckily I do have a SamKnows box which shows this issue in a graphical form. Note how unstable the connection and speed seems to be! Surely it is not be like this?

To me this is suggesting a problem with the line/BB connection, would this assumption be correct?

BT Wi-Fi connection drops and cannot be closed

I use BT Wi-Fi on a monthly subscription - 500 minutes for £6 a month, plus 12p a minute for any extra minutes.
Occasionally my connection drops, and I have to reconnect and login again, which I can do OK.
But when I check later how many minutes I used, via my online subscription info, it's clear that I end up with two connections running in parallel. The connection which dropped carries on as active in the background somewhere until it is eventually auto-disconnected (after 15 or 20 minutes ?) due to inactivity. So I lose those minutes each time this happens.
There is no way to close the dropped connection. Even if I log out of my new 2nd connection, it only closes that one, not the dropped one which I can't access.
Today this happened when I was at the end of my monthly allowance, so because I couldn't close the connection I've now gone around 30 minutes over my allowance, which will cost me £3.60.
Please can we have a way of closing all connections on a BT Wi-Fi account, to deal with this issue.
And a refund would be good, as I had no way of preventing my account going into the 12p a minute rate.
