Why do i  suddenly keep losing signal strength?

All of a sudden, my signal strength for Airport Extreme keeps falling and disappearing. This hasn't happened before and all connections are fine, the modem and router haven't been moved and my laptop is where it has always been.
Does anyone know why this is happening and what i can do to increase signal strength?
Thank you
Chandni

Find out what channel the neighbour's network is on using the Airport Traffic Control Widget and ensure your channel is at least three channels away.
If it is a phone then try your network on channels 1 or 11.

  • Why does my iPad2 suddenly keep losing connection on facetime?

    Why does my iPad2 suddenly keep losing connection on FaceTime and tries to constantly reconnect?

    Does it happen anywhere that you use FaceTime or only in your home WiFi network? If it happens with your home network, have you tried power cycling your router? Unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in.
    Turn WiFi off and on in the settings. Reset the network settings.
    Have you tried any troubleshooting steps at all?

  • Why does my mouse keep losing connection every minute

    why does my mouse keep losing connection every minute, its not the batteries

    I'm having the same issue.  Every so often it loses connection then re establishes. This goes on repeatedly.
    If you change batteries while the computer is still active then it takes for ever to re connect.
    Can't wait until someone replies to your question.

  • Why does my iphone4 keep losing some of my newly entered contacts?

    Why does my iphone4 keep losing some of my newly entered contacts?

    When an app is downloaded to your phone what is downloading is an installer. Once the installer downloads in installs the app and then is deleted. You can see a reference to this if you watch the App's icon in the App Store after you tap on download. It will first say downloading then that will change to installing. The amount of free space on your phone must be enough to accommodate the installer and the app plus have some left over for system work. You're just too close to the minimum for everything to work.

  • Why does my trackpad keep losing connection

    why does my trackpad keep losing connection

    I am using Mountain Lion on a 2011 Macbook Pro and this is happening to me.
    The notebook never used to drop the connection on Snow Leopard or Lion as far as I can remember.  At first it was fine on Mountain Lion as well I think, but after the last couple updates the connection to the trackpad is gone when it wakes from sleep.  Dropping down to Bluetooth and choosing connect does not help.  It must be deleted and repaired each time under sytem preferences and bluetooth settings.  Batteries are fine, Apple rechargables, lights up green when tap button.  I also have an Apple keyboard used for this notebook and that never loses connection.  Just the trackpad, and only after the most recent updates the past month or so.  It pairs fine at first, then the connection is gone and I can't get it back without very inconvenient deleting and repairing.
    I seem to remember it happening shortly after a long update.  I am currently on 10.8.2.

  • Sky HD box keeps losing signal but is fixed with a power cycle

    Hi all, I'm having issues with my Sky HD box. Every day  (recently), I'm having to powercycle the box to get a signal.After the power recovery the signal is fine, so I think the dish is fine. It's seems the the box is losing signal while it's on stand by mode. Any ideas? Thanks in advance Jason

    I had this problem too but in the end the solution was for Sky to come out and replace the dish and LNBs, since when the signal has been perfect. I would check what signal strength you are getting - I believe it's in the settings menu.

  • Keep losing signal & poor speed

    Hi
    Over the last few days I keep losing my internet connection, I've run several speed tests today connected directly to the router with an ethernet cable & master socket and I'm still struggling to get more than 0.5Mb - usually we average 1.5Mb (Warmwell exchange)
    I've tried replacing the router for a brand new netgear as the BT homehub kept losing the signal even at our old address but it's made no difference and over the last 48 hours it's become unbearable.
    I've done the test using speedster.btcom, that also shows 0.5Mb.
    There are no listed service issues in my area so what's going on?
    Cheers,
    Andy.

    Hi Welcome to the forums
    Here are some help pages done by CL Keith http://forumhelp.dyndns.org/speed/Speed.html
    also post your full hub stats by entering 192.168.1.254 into your web browser address bar and navigate to adsl or use a-z, if netgear enter 192.168.0.1
    Can you also post the full results from BT Speedtest speedtester.bt.com  
    Have you tried connecting to the test socket at the rear of the master socket    
    Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal

  • Why does my mouse keep losing connectivity

    My magic Mouse (came with the system) keeps losing connectivity.  It seems that whenever the mouse has a period of inactivity such as when I am using the key board, it loses connectivity and I have to double tap it (two fingers) to get it to reconnect.  Battery is >80%.  Is this normal or is there a setting that can insure it stays connected?  I appreciate any advice even if it is I have to put up with this annoyance.  Thanks.

    BDAqua
    Thanks for the response.  My WFi is a Linksys E2000.  Because of the number of messages in the Console I will have to wait until the next time I lose connectivity and then check for messages in Console to see if there are any clues to what is going on.
