V8.3 wifi slowed or not working

all of a sudden, out of the blue, after about three yrs of working absolutely fine, my wifi network has slowed to a crawl or stopped working altogether. the only thing i can think of that caused the problem is that the iOS update v8.3 happened around the same time things stopped working. the airport utility app and desktop report that everything is "green" and looks fine- so it's obviously not recognizing the problem..
any tips or insight for how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

It is a good idea to power cycle your entire network from time to time to give everything a fresh connection and allow the wireless router to scan and find the best available channel to use at the time.
If you have not done this recently, now would be a good time to perform this basic troubleshooting procedure as follows:
Power off every device on your network.....modem, routers, computers, printers, mobile devices, etc in any order that you want
Wait a minute
Power up the modem first and let it run 2-3 minutes
Power up the next device connected to the modem and let it run for a full minute
Keep starting devices one at a time about a minute apart until the entire network is back up
Check the network and report on your results

1415 fnw printer wireless connection extremely slow or not working with OS X, works with windows

The wireless connection to the printer is either extremely slow or not working at all on OS X Yosemite. It shows up in the list of printers in Bonjour in Safari, and I can connect to parts of the web interface if I wait a very long time. However, I cannot add the printer as a new printer in System Preferences even though the printer shows up.
I have upgraded to the latest firmware. The WiFi indicator on the printer is on, "green", and it has a reserved IP showing up in my router (ComCast). It seems that Windows machines can printer to the printer wirelessly without a problem.
Any help appreciated.

Hello @sscotti,
I would like to assist you today with installing your wireless HP LaserJet Pro CM1415fnw Color Multifunction Printer on your Mac OS X 10.10 Computer. Now you indicate in your post that this printer works fine with Windows computers, and you are able to 'see' the Bonjour printer on your Mac. Therefore, the issue that you are experiencing is not network related. Rather, I do believe that you are experiencing a driver conflict on your Mac OS X 10.10 computer. Can I please have you run the steps below to resolve this issue.
Step 1: Uninstall Drivers and Software:
First, I'm going to have you 'clean up' your Mac OS X 10.10 computer to verify that any trace of your Laserjet printer is gone so we have a nice clean slate to work with. Please click here and when the website opens select the drop down for 'Mac OS X v10.6, OS X v10.7, OS X v10.8, and OS X v10.9' as the steps are the same for Mac OS X 10.10. Run the appropriate uninstall steps for the method in which you originally tried to install your printer: Apple Updates, or the HP Driver download.
Once the uninstall is complete, please proceed to the next step.
Step 2: Verify and Repair your Disk Permissions on the Mac:
Open Macintosh HD and go to Applications
Go to the Utilities Folder
Open the Disk Utility
Select the Hard Drive volume you are using (usually on the left)
Select Verify Disk Permissions
Once that process is done, select Repair Disk Permissions
Step 3: Check for Apple Updates:
Go to Apple
Select System Preferences
Select Software Update
Click Update Now
Install your available updates
Restart your computer
Step 4: Reinstall your Software and Drivers:
Please click here to download the appropriate Mac OS X 10.10 drivers for your HP Laserjet printer.
Once the website opens select the 'download' button on the top left
Once the download has completed, please follow the onscreen steps to reinstall your printer.
Once the reinstall is complete, test the print and scan functions to ensure that your printer is functioning as per normal.
Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. Should you still be experiencing issues there are additional steps I can have you run through. I look forward to hearing from you. Good luck!

Hi,
Shut down the notebook. Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu. Select the Bios option ( usually f10 ) and under the Advanced or Diagnostic tab you should find the facility to run tests on both the Hard Drive and Memory. Post back with the details of any error messages.
Note: If the option to run these tests is not available in the Bios Menu, use the f2 diagnostic menu instead.
Can you also post back with the following details.
1. The full Model No. and Product No. of your notebook - see Here for a guide on locating this information.
2. The full version of the operating system you are using ( ie Windows 7 64bit ).

If you have the Intel Centrino N2230 Wireless + Bluetooth adapter, can you try to:
1. Navigate to the Control Panel (large icon view) > Devices and Printers and try to pair a bluetooth device (i.e. Bluetooth Headset) and observe if it gets detected under the device list.
2. If the Bluetooth Headset is listed but it's not working try toright click on it > choose Properties. On the bluetooth properties Window, go to the Services Tab and check all the appropriate bluetooth services.

Ios 7 wifi connected but not working

my iphone 5s running ios 7 is connected to my home wifi but its not working, but my pc is doing fine on that wifi. and when i try connecting my iphone to other wifi it seems to work without any problem. i've reseted network settings many times and reseted all settings once but it wouldnt work for me. so whats the problem and how can i fix this?

Try power cycling your router. Remove the router from power for about 30 seconds and then start it back up again. After it is finished configuring, try connecting your device again.

iTunes download is extremely slow or not working, am I the only one experiencing this, iTunes download is extremely slow or not working, am I the only one experiencing this?

I do not have a solution, just the same complaint. ***! ! I just used the iTunes store 2 weeks ago and now, after reviewing everything they asked for including ID/Pass/ Account Info etc. I can't even get into the store. I have tried asking at the Mac store and it has all been to no avail. I was perfectly happy with iTunes before all of this ********... seriously what is the issue with iTunes? They ask me to upload a new version (with no system specs anywhere that I can find on the page) and then say it can't utilized because of system inadequacy. It is exceedingly frustrating.

restore your phone as new through itunes. if the issue persists after a factory restore via itunes, it means you've got a hardware issue and the phone needs to be repaired

Installed iOS7 update and now wifi and Bluetooth not working

My daughters 4s has never skipped a beat - perfectly reliable. Just updated iOS7 with update and now both wifi and Bluetooth not working. Wifi is greyed out and when you go into bluetooth the busy twirly symbol is constantly going round. Can someone please help me as I'm pulling my hair out! My other Daughters iphone 4s is fins BUT she has not downloaded latest update - and she won't until this is resolved. If needs be I will take to store and DEMAND for it to be sorted out - either by repair or replacement as it is wholly a seemingly software issue and nothing wrong with the phone.
Gutted really as I am a huge Apple fan and customer with ipods, phones, iMac & iPads all around. If this is not resolved I fear an Apple drought may begin!

..... ty for the link, however this is the first result googling the issue..... of course it did not work....
it is really unbelivable that plenty 4s devices suffered the wifi troubleshooting just after upgrading to ios7, and finally.... i should burn wifi and bluthoot, and another hardware problems should cause % battery value is disappeared....
all this in one shot....
firmaware is not well working or is somebody bombing our devices to force us to switch to newest?

IOS6 WIFI bug, still not work now, exhausted,help...

Been like this a week now, tried every possiable way still not any help at all, it can connect the wifi, internet works for 1or 2 minuts then will faile again, changed one router and tried all different settings as still not work, someone told me they don't have this problem they are using different router,maybe it's because IOS6 have sort of confict with some brand router? I am using TPlink, should I keep invest different router and try? Or should I wait for bug fixed?
Apple didn't give any suggestion to customer and time schedule for bug fixed, this is really **** me off...
I will try to visit apple store to check if they can change a new one with IOS5 for me.

They will not change you back to iOS 5. I asked.
I spent almost 1 week trying to resolve this. Reboot the ipad, reboot my router, delete the network, rejoin the network. Nothing seems to work. I called the Apple support, spent 2 days. After trying every single solution (that I've already done before calling.. duhhh)..
They told me to:
- Go to iTunes.Back up all your data, transfer all purchases to your computer. Of course when I tried to transfer all my purchases, they stuck for hours, then crash everything. I had to redo this 3 times. HOURS!!!
- Restore your iPad from your iTunes. It will erase everything in your iPad, then start fresh as new
- Turn off your iPad
- Turn off your router, give it 10-15 minutes, turn on your router
- Turn on your iPad, join the network
Even though finally it looks ok. I am still going to return this iPad and get a replacement. I just don't feel confident with the device anymore. I just bought my iPad less than 3 months, still got the box. The support told me I could swap my iPad, all I need is to see the Apple Genius. So I made appointment, otherwise the Genius won't see you.
I got tons of questions again from the Genius. He said it is my router problem. Basically, I have a crappy router that came from my internet provider. He said that since they opened the store, he only knew TWO people came in with WIFI issue. I told him, all my other devices connect just fine... but of course, they're "oranges" not Apple.
I thought I'll be getting my replacement right away, but no.. Genius had to place an order first, and they will call me again, and I have to make another appointment to pick it up. I wonder why they don't have one in stock. It's the NEW iPad!!! I hope they're not getting my replacement from some kinda refurbished factory.
This is my first purchase with Apple. So far it is not a pleasant experience.

IPhone 6 Wifi and Blutooth not working after update!

I updated my iPhone 6 this weekend and did not back it up before doing so. I now notice that my WiFi and Bluetooth are off and not working! I can't turn the back on. I reset the phone, I even reset all the network settings, but can not turn them on. I also noticed that I am not getting text an emails as quick. My iPad Air is fine, but my phone is really screwed up. Any suggestions?
Also - I have to say this, what's up with Apple lately? Why so many issues with updates lately? I (and everyone else) pay a lot of money for these devices and the service, how about putting out updates that don't screw everything up for a change.

Read these articles: [iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections - Apple Support] [iOS: Troubleshooting Bluetooth connections - Apple Support]
And it was unwise to not make a backup prior to updating. That's contrary to what Apple recommends: [Update the iOS software on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support] (Before you update Back up your device to iCloud or iTunes.)
And what issues with updates are you talking about? This is your first post on this forum.
