Verizon disconnects every 10 minutes

Windows application interface (wininet.dll) shows disconnected after 10 minutes being connected to the UML290 WWAN card. Anyone have a solution? It only seems happen with Windows 7 or Vista, but worked fine on Windows XP.

The first thing I would look at is the modem. When you loose service is the Dsl light steady or flashing?. It should be steady all the time. If it is flashing you lost service...This could be caused by numerous things. Our lines outside, poor wiring in the house...etc...

Airport keep disconnecting every few minutes

Hi,
I don't know why, but my airport keeps disconnecting every few minutes, although it reconnects after that.
I'm sure there's no problem with my router since other PCs in my home are fine.
It's totally fine when I use my windows in the macbook (via bootcamp).
Anyone has the same problem or anyone knows the solution?
Thanks.

I've had this issue for about a week and it has made my Macbook nearly impossible to use for anything other than local disk work.
Last night I tried running the standalone upgrade and it worked beautifully, however, upon booting up this AM I'm back to square one, constantly dropping the connection, ran the standalone update again and back in business with no drops.
While this is appears to be my temp workaround I don't want to be doing this on a daily basis.
HELLO APPLE what is the deal ?

Skype Disconnected Every Few Minutes

I upgrade my service from wireless to uverse and that includes phone, cable and internet. Since then I noticed that when I am on a call on Skype, I get disconnected every few minutes even though I am still connected to the internet. Didn't have this problem before.

I've been having the same problem, and so I tried the solution suggested above. However, I still get disconnected after being away from my computer for just a few minutes. Although we have wireless and I thought that perhaps this is the reason I get disconnected, my husband can be using the internet on his computer at the exact time that I get disconnected, so I know that I'm not losing the wireless signal. Any other suggestions?
Thanks

Tecra M9 PTM91E : WLan Intel 4965AGN disconnect every few minutes

I have a M9 laptop, model PTM91E. The wireless connection keeps disconnecting (then reconnecting again) every few minutes. This happens on every wireless network I try connecting to. Here what I have on my laptop: -
Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN
Driver version 11.5.0.32
Driver date 9/26/2007
XP Pro
Toshiba suggest I upgrade to Windows Vista, something I have nigtmares about.
Does anyone else have the same problem? Any solutions?
Thanks

I have read about the similar issue on a Sat A210 and with Atheros WLan card.
The solution was a BIOS and WLan driver update
So check it out.
Good luck

Iwlwifi disconnecting every few minutes

Hi!
I've got an intel wifi card (Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6230 (rev 34)), using iwlwifi. Every few minutes I get disconnected from the AP and when trying to reconnect it fails most of the times. Reloading iwlwifi or the networkmanager doesn't help. Is this a bug or may be something wrong with my configuration?
Thanks!
Edit: I am using a Toshiba portege laptop

Hi all,
I've installed Arch Linux recently on my laptop and I've been experiencing the same problem myself. I tried jumping from Gentoo forums to Arch Linux forums to you-name-it forums to find an answer to this problem but nothing worked for me.
In these forums, you will find many posts with commands that say that fix that problem (this post will be eventually one of them) but somehow fail to do so in your laptop. I don't know if there is an one-answer-fits-all, but through these searches -and some experimentation of my own- I've found a rather aggressive approach to make my wireless connections more robust. I disabled IPv6 and most of the card's hardware-intensive options.
Still, since this way probably will not work or appeal to most of you, I'd also like to provide a more coherent approach to this problem, so that you will know where to go to after reading this post (than endlessly Google searching).
Step 0: Know your enemy
The problem I was dealing with was similar to the original poster's and happened consistently. When my signal's strength wasn't good and the network card had lots of traffic (downloading a file while watching YouTube while ...), the download speed would abruptly come to a halt. Removing and re-inserting the iwlwifi module would fix it temporarily, but later on it would relapse. Also, there was no apparent error to troubleshoot, since iwlwifi would print on dmesg only the re-connections and not any error.
The above was experienced with kernels 3.2, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7. I can't say for sure that all versions of these kernels are problematic, so you are free to check it out your self. An easy way to check if patches were issued about iwlwifi in a specific kernel version can be found from here. Just compare the dates of the file changes between different kernel versions.
Also, you might want to know that the wifi was working seamlessly with the 3.3.8 version of the kernel. Thus, if you want to check out a different linux kernel, I'd suggest you start with this one. Obviously, this is for people using Debian or other distros that rely on older kernels. So, our first question would be...
Step 1: What is your kernel?
You can find a description of your system with this command:
uname -mor
My output is:
3.7.1-2-ARCH x86_64 GNU/Linux
Step 2: What is your hardware?
It is very important to know what your hardware is. If you have the same hardware as I do, then you probably have more chances to fix it. If you post a question in another forum and then mark your question as solved, people would like to know what your hardware was. If you send a bug report to the iwlwifi team, they will need your card's model.
So, write:
lspci | grep -i net
My output is:
01:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 130 (rev 34)
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 06)
Step 3: What is your problem?
You can see more debug info about your problem by writing:
dmseg
or to filter through these messages:
dmesg | grep iwlwifi
If you see any errors, tracebacks etc. then these are bugs and you'd best search for similar bugs here. If there are no similar bugs, I'd suggest you create a new bug report. The people that answer in this list are core developers of the iwlwifi module and you'd best send them these bug reports in order to help them track down these problems.
Step 4: Solution (?)
GRUB
The are many ways to disable IPv6. I did it using GRUB:
sudo cp /boot/grub/grub.cfg /boot/grub/grub.bak #For backup reasons
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
Add this option "ipv6.disable=1" to the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=, so that your GRUB looks like this:
GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="Arch"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="ipv6.disable=1"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
Finally, do:
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
sudo reboot
to update your grub and restart your laptop. If anything goes wrong, you can restore your grub.cfg file using the backup grub.bak we created above.
IWLWIFI OPTIONS
Provided IPv6 is disabled, you can check in real time which of the following options make a difference, without restarting your laptop:
sudo modprobe -r iwldvm iwlwifi
sudo modprobe iwlwifi 11n_disable=1 bt_coex_active=0 power_save=0 auto_agg=0 swcrypto=1
You can learn more about these options by writing:
modinfo iwlwifi
Hopefully, you will experience no disconnections from now on.
Now, in order to automatically pass these options at startup to iwlwifi, you can create a *.conf file inside /etc/modprobe.d directory.
nano /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf
And add this line:
options iwlwifi 11n_disable=1 bt_coex_active=0 power_save=0 auto_agg=0 swcrypto=1
Step 5: This %@#%@ @#%#% doesn't #%@#% work
Well, bummer. I'd highly recommend to inform the developers of iwlwifi about your problem, as I've mentioned above. If the dev list intimidates you, post about this problem here.
Good luck...
Edit
It's likely that you may encounter the following strange behavior when trying to connect to your access point.
Copied form my dmesg:
[ 904.190052] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: L1 Enabled; Disabling L0S
[ 904.197452] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Radio type=0x2-0x2-0x1

[ 915.641048] wlan0: deauthenticating from 00:26:44:b3:16:a4 by local choice (reason=3)
If the above is coupled with the netcfg's response:
> DHCP IP lease attempt failed.
[FAILED]
then you have just encountered a strange dhcpcd bug, which has nothing to do with iwlwifi.
You can find possible solutions here.

[solved] kopete 1.0.0 disconnecting every 5 minutes

Hello.
I have a problem with kopete, as described in subject.
Here is screenshot of kopete message window:
I understand, that this should be posted in kde forums, rather, than here.
But I just want to know, if anybody experiencing the same problem.

I'm on GoogleTalk and using KDEmod too. The same behaviour, though, I have with icq too.
As for qca and qca-ossl, both are installed. I do can connect, but connection is dropped every 5 minutes. And this behaviour I can see only with kopete. Qutim under Linux and Miranda IM under Windows work fine.
It looks very strange, but last couple of hours there were no disconnects! The only thing I've changed — installed knetworkmanager 0.9 and tried to use it. But I coudn't make it to work, so I've returned to arch's network.
After these "manipulations" all worked great.
It is really very strange, because these disconnects in kopete ware driving me crazy for last several days! I should test it more, maybe I'll find some suspicious things.

My ichat keeps disconnecting every 5 minutes.

I got a new router and my internet and everything is working fine except for my iChat, which keeps disconnecting every couple of minutes. It's getting pretty annoying as it signs me off in the middle of a conversation. How do I fix it?

ICHAT disconnects every five minutes...

My iChat disconnects every 5-10 minutes saying the connection was lost -- even though the browser still works! This only happens at my home with my wireless router.
Everywhere else I've used iChat (on other connections) it stays connected..
HELP!

Hi,
Welcome to the  Discussions
A Browser and even the Mail app if you use it only use the internet now and then.
For Mail this is when mail is collected or sent.
For a Web Browser it is each time you change page (Some pages automatically refresh to keep the adverts up to date)
You may only notice a slight pause in a browser if it is waiting for the Internet to come back.
iChat is a truly "Always ON" app
With any Buddy list that logs in to AIM it will instantly indicate any change in status of a Buddy (On-line, Off line, Status message Changes).
As a result any issue with the Internet connection no matter how short will normally get the buddy list to fold (say Disconnected).
If this Home router is Wifi try changing the channel it uses so not to get interference from other nearby devices.

Ipad, iphone's photo slideshow airplay to apple tv disconnected every one minute...

I'm using ipad to play slideshow through Airplay to apple tv and encounter keep disconnect after 1 minutes, how do i solve this problem? I had tried several ipad also facing the same problem...

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

My iphone 5 does not remember the password of my home network. Well this is ot the case with my ipad. The wifi gets disconnected every 2 minutes. Its not any problem with my wifi router as my ipad and other devices work fine. So how do i fix this problem?

Well my iphone 5 does not remember my home network. This is not a problem with the wifi router as the ipad works absolutely fine. The wifi loses it connection in just 2 minutes. So could you please fix this problem.

Not unless the modem is causing a problem.
What you want to do is get it to work reliably over Ethernet first, then tackle wifi. Power off the modem. On your macbook, delete the Ethernet configuration and the Wifi configuration. Power up the modem, then connect the mac via Ethernet. Create the new Ethernet configuration and see if you can connect.

IMac 2012, 10.7.5 wifi disconnects every 5 minutes

since I update to 10.7.5 it happens always, loosing wireless connection, I'm turning off and turn on wifi to start connecting again,
found on the forum this:
If the above solution does not work try changing your DNS settings. MacWorld did an article about DNS Troubleshooting that will explain, while it doesn't work for everyone I found it worked for me. Here are the instructions and settings I used that have been working reliably for 3.5 years:
1. System preferences
2. Network
3. Click Advanced
4. Click DNS tab
5. Click + sign
6. Add 208.67.222.222
7. Click + sign
8. Add 208.67.220.220
9. Click OK.
10. Exit System Preferences
11. Try out your iMac and report what happened.

SPA-3102 Line is disconnecting every 10 minutes and 40 sec

Hi,
I've a SPA-3102 connected behind a Motorola router, for any reason I'm not able to find, each time you call someone, after 10 min and 40 sec, the line cuts, and you have to call back.
Software Version: 3.3.6(GW) Hardware Version: 1.4.5(a)
SPA-3102 has a fix IP, and config has been done by my phone IP provider, does anyone have an idea which settings needs to be modified to avoid this cut?
Thanks for your help

I think under the “Regional” tab, you will have “Control Timer Values” and I belive thios is where you have to adjest the timer. I am not quite sure as well what parameters are needed to tweek in this section but I am sure that it should be one of them. Maybe try adjusting the “Reorder delay”. I suggest contacting Cisco Tech support to further look into your concern. I believe this unit belongs to the business series devices that Cisco is now supporting. Try to go to this link for the other business series devices and the site where you can get hold of Cisco for support:

EA 2700 disconnecting every once in awhile. (30/60minutes)

Heya,
I'm having issues with a newly bought EA 2700 router, I'm getting disconnected every 30-60 minutes. (It's a brief disconnect for about 10seconds, perhaps a huge packet loss or something?)
I've tried connecting directly to the modem and that seemed to have fixed the problem, so I think that it is a router issue...?
Perhaps somebody here knows how to fix this. Would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: I'm connected with a wire. Also, my download/upload/ping is 35mbps download, 35ish mbps upload, and 8ms. (I have a 35mbps connection so that's fine) But when I connect my PC to the modem directly, my MS becomes 5, and my upload jumps to 77mbps. The download stays the same... I thought that was quite strange. ;o

Hmm alright. I've already reset it multiple times, also reverted it to factory settings twice. But I keep disconnecting every hour orso. The firmware is up to date as well. My NIC is running at 1.0 gbps, I'm not sure where I can see what the router is at however. But I assume 1gbps as well? I've tried disabling UPnP, disabling IPv6 at the network adapter. I also tried to set the router to Bridge Mode, that made my upload go up to 77mbps again and my Ping down to 5, but I disconnected every few minutes for a while, then the day after (I went to bad cause it was driving me insane) it seemed to work for a while, but then I started getting disconnected for brief moment again. So I put it back to automatic DHCP config.
Edit: I also tried to empty the %temp% folder, that seemed to help, but not for long. (Perhaps not at all.)
Edit2: I also replaced my network cable twice, but seeing as the issues went away when I plugged directly into the modem I figured that that couldn't be the issue either...
Edit3: I keep remembering things that I tried to do in order to fix this, I also reinstalled my network drivers. ;-)

MSI GX640 Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN dropping connection every ~10 minutes

Problem: Getting disconnected every 5-20 minutes. Network card: Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN.
Solutions tried: Router restarted? No idea what to do, googling it yielded no viable results, even though I can't say I'm pro at googling. Found no drivers on MSI homepage.

Further information:
My MSI GX640 had problems with heating and was sent to be repaired and got its heatzink switched. I started getting disconnects every 10 minutes or so, sometimes less than a minute apart, sometimes up to 20 minutes without a disconnection.
Don't really know what information you might need, so please do tell if something is missing.

Those are not the newest: http://eu.msi.com/index.php?func=nbdriver&maincat_no=135&prod_no=1998
You'll get the newest at: http://www.intel.com/support/wireless/detect.htm - click the check buttom and follow steps. <- These are from 18-10-2010
But yeah you'll might need to change which wireless channels you are on. If you aren't using Wireless connection then you might have to check your LAN card drivers or this can allso be caused by your ISP or bad connection on your internet line.
