Wifi connection (already SOLVED)

not sure wheather to put this here or in network
#dell inspiron 5150
#cisco aironet350
but anywho
i have been fighting my wifi connection for sometime (on & off for around a year)
i believe the intermitent problem began when i switched my rc.conf from
hwd in daemons
to
mod -autoload="yes"
it switched my eth1 to eth2 <no biggie
at 1st it worked for sometime (at bootup) then a new update it wouldnt switch to using udev from testing it worked
then a new udev & kernel it didnt
thus i would have to login su replug network card run
ifconfig -a
/etc/rc.d/network restart
quite a hassle
but tonight a had a bit of time on my hands & ready to finally mess with this to get it to connect at bootup , after trying to write udev.rules with no success i got to thinking
it used to work perfectly ALL the time why am i having such difficulty
well if you didnt catch it at the begining of my rant/post/bitch fest ..whatever
i swsitched
#mod-autoload="yes"
than started in
daemons hwd
guess what ive rebooted 5x now successfully connecting
am i remebering correctly that
mod-autoload="yes"
is supposed to be the same as
daemon hwd
cause it aint acting the same here
or is that a udev thing in which case if it is i will repost this under The udev guys should hear about hwdetect
thanks

WiFi connection problem solved

My intel iMac and MBA had no problem but iPods 3g and 5g did. I had an old Netgear router connected and sitting next to my Airport Express. On a hunch I diconnected the Netgear and created a guest network to replace the one on the Netgear. PROBLEM SOLVED!
Evidently our iPods and boarder's iPhone had problems sorting out the signals and finding the right addresses. Moving the AE to a higher and slightly more central position also helped.

Same here on a Vodafone PocketWiFi 2.
Tried NetworkManager, wicd, wifi-menu but all have the same issue.
I recently installed Aptosid on another machine and it has the same problem... It also has kernel version 3.9.
All the live CDs I've tried work, even an Arch CD from May works, though a current install does not.
I have no problems connecting to another (wpa2 enterprise) network yet can't on this 3G modem.
I'm hoping this isn't a permanent issue and perhaps an update very soon will fix this.
It seems the only way to fix this for now is to use an old version of Linux. I'm currently running a virtual machine only for the purpose of Internet sharing, very annoying.

IPhone WiFi Connection problem solved (ios v 6.1.2)

I recently spent time going through a verry irritating problem with my iphone... I installed a new router at home and initially all was well... my LAN connection worked... my wireless connection was strong and it took no time to get my AppleTV, iPad and my sons iPad running on the wireless network.... Then I tried to get my iPhone (4) to log on to the network.... it appeared to find the network... accepted the password.... and nothing.... I tried:
Turning Wi-Fi off then on again
Restarted the router
Reset network settings on the iphone
Forgetting the network & inputting the password again
Turned off the iphone and restarted it
Restored the iPhone
restarted the router, again...
Eventually I decided to look at how the router was setup... so, in a browser I entered the router address: eg. 192.168.#.###. Then I went and did a reset on the router... and Voila ! the iPhone as well as all of the other devices now find and work with the Wi-Fi network...
Hope this helps a few people and saves some time...
Regards
Mike

It says you have the wrong password.

Reset the TC to factory and start again.
But do not be surprised if the v5 utility no longer works to do the setup.

About an hour ago, I purchased Real Racing 2 from the Mac App Store for $12.99, but since then it has not downloaded one bit, even though I have a stable wifi connection. The money has already been taken from my account as well. What should I do?

Just to make sure, open Mac App Store and click Purchases. Can you pause the download and restart it?

Hello... the airport (wifi) connection on my imac is oftenly "freeze" and need to reconnect again. Can everyone help to solve this problem? It's not happened to other computer on the same network in the same area (distance). Thanks a lot.

Click OK.
If that doesn't work try changing channels on your Router.

Just got a used IPhone from store and it won't connect to Internet without having to use wifi. Already called my phone company and it still doesn't work. How do I fix this?

I just went to GameStop to get a used Iphone3 and I can't seem to figure out how to get Internet without using wifi connection. Anyone know how to do so? Everything else works good.

Before you go there call your provider first and have them check the provisioning on the phone. They will ask if you did this when you go to the Genius Bar.

How do I make it where I can open my books in IBooks without having a wifi connection? They are already in there, but won't open when I am without connection.

HHow do you open books in IBooks without a wifi connection? I used the open in iBooks option when downloading a ePub doc. Won't open without the wifi.

Yes, you would need an internet connection to download. Once that's done and you've opened the epub in iBooks the first time, you should not need WiFi again.

[SOLVED] WiFi connection drops

Hey guys,
I'm having some trouble with my WiFi connection lately as it tends to drop the connection every like 2-10 mins.
It is not directly linked to any specific action, it just happens while browsing the web, watching a video or chatting.
It's definitely not hardware related either as I do not have any connection losses when running windows on the same laptop (Dell Latitude E4300).
lspci: 0c:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation WiFi Link 5100
iwconfig: wlan0 IEEE 802.11abgn ESSID:"****"

Power Management:off
Link Quality=61/70 Signal level=-49 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0

Is this some known bug or is anyone else having the same problem? I couldn't find anything specifically similar to my problem on the forums and the rest of the web but maybe you guys know how to fix this?!
Cheers
Tobi

You can try out to load the module with
modprobe iwlwifi 11n_disable=1 swcrypto=1
or, to make it permanent, create a file /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf containing
#/etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf
options iwlwifi 11n_disable=1 swcrypto=1
That did it for me (i had the same problems: "wlan0: deauthenticating from 00:11:22:33:44:55 by local choice (reason=3)"). Don't know, if both parameters are needed, wasn't patient enough for testing.
Big maustu! that did the job for me as well.
This problem may be related to iwlwifi and some adsl routers. Everything was ok for me until we changed internet provider. The new provider (Fastweb, italy). placed their own router. Since then, my connection drops every 15 minutes or so and then it hangs. I have to restart network in order to reconnect.
I tried disabling networmanager and connecting with wpa_supplicant and wpa_supplicant.conf and fiddling with the file templates but the problem persisted.
I did pacman -Syu after we got the new router. Just to verify that it is the new router causing the problem I downgraded iwlwifi to previous version and the problem persisted. I didn't bother downgrading the kernel though...
Booting the same pc with another distro that loads iwlagn everything is ok. Another pc with ubuntu that uses iwl3945 is also fine. The problem seems to be just with iwlwifi, my network card and that f...g router which I have not access to.
My network card is Intel WiFi Link 5300.
The logs in case it really is a problem with iwlwifi and someone know how to deal with it.

HP Slate 21 Pro: WiFi connection issues

Hi,
I recently ordered two HP Slate 21 Pro devices. Unfortunately, both of them have WiFi connection issues. After some time the properly configured WiFi connection will be dropped, which results in connectionless devices. The WiFi AP is disabled after this, and so a timed reconnect will not succeed.
After inspecting the Logcat I found following lines:

Is this issue already known? Has someone a solution for me?
Thanks in advance,

That really shouldn't affect it.
I'm a little stumped because I haven't seen this issue with this device before. The only similar issue I found was this, and it's unresolved.
Have you tried doing a hard reboot of the Slate 21?
I work on behalf of HP (But this isn't my job)
Mark my post as “Accept as Solution" if you feel my post solved your issue, so that others with the same question can find the answer.
Please give me Kudos if I wrote something that helped you.

Officejet 8620 two problems a)Win7 firewall wifi connection and b)multihoming the printer

Bought the printer this afternoon and set up one computer - printer connection with wifi as advised in the enclosed paper work and CD. No problems.
When setting up the second computer (also with wifi) using the enclosed CD I got an error message that the hp software can see the printer at the IP address I gave it but it couldn't auto connect using the "typical connection method". Advice in the dialog box was to change the computer firewall settings for "typical connection" method. No advice on what that might be. Looking at the Win7 firewall, all HP printer software is checked off for both the home network and public. What else does the Win7 firewall need to enable to make automatic printer connection work??? BTW I took the installation software's advice and punted for now. The warning by the software was that if the printers IP address changes I will have to manually change it in the computer withthe firewall problem (ugh).
Which leads to the second problem:
A couple of my computers are ethernet only. No wifi. When I plug ethernet in to the 8620, it sets an IP address for itself on the ethernet, but it abandons the wifi IP address. How can I print from some ethernet connected computers and some wifi connected ones.
Any constructive advice is VERY WELCOME.
I apologize in advance if there is already a solution posted for either of these problems; I could not find them searching the forum.

Welcome to the HP Forums lennyw07016,
I see by your post that you are having issues installing the printer on a second computer. You would also like to setup the printer on the computers that are hardwired to the router. I can help you with this issue.
You can only use the Ethernet or Wireless at a time. The Ethernet connection turns off the Wifi.
You can have the printer setup on the wireless network and still add the printer to the computers with the hardwired connection to the router. As long as they are on the same network.
I have provided a document for different ways for setting up the printer on the wireless network.
Installing the Printer Software on a Wireless or Wired (Ethernet) Network Connection.
You should have the option to type in the printer's IP address.
Printing a Network Configuration Page.
Here is another method for converting USB to wireless.
Installing the Printer Software for a Wireless Network Connection.
Go to step 4 under the operating system selected.
If you are still having issues, check the IP address on the computer.
Go to start, type run in the search box, type in cmd, then type ipconfig.
Check the IP address.
Now check the IP address for the printer.
Do the first 3 sets of numbers match?
Try and ping the printer.
In the same window, type ping printers IP address (space between ping and IP address)
What are the results?
If you need further assistance, let me know.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

Wifi Connection drops but still have all bars. Please Apple, respond us

I have a macbook pro 13''(purchased 1 month), a white macbook (bought in 2007) and a dell vostro 1310 (with windows 7) using the same router WRT54G2 Linksys or D-link 524
Only on my macbook pro 13''my connection drops without explanation and without a certain period (15 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours).
I'm with latest updates (both macbook as a router), already formatted and applied the 10.6.4 combo. I have already put ip manually turned off DHCP, DNS already placed manually, I swapped the channel router. Everything recommended in official forums, but nothing helped.
What makes me saddest is that Apple does not respond. Even with so many threads about this problem.

My 2012 Mini OS 10.7.5 cannot see the Ethernet connection to my Actiontec GT701 WG. The Network Preferences says "cable unplugged". The WiFi connection is working fine. Please Thank You

Never mind, problem solved. When I retunred to the Network tab the message had changed to "connected, no IP address" so I got that from the WiFi tab and configured the Ethernet manually. Have a nice day @:-)#

Toshiba EXCITE Pro - WIFI connection. Authentication failed after update

Hello.
Just received this Tablet.
Everything seemed ok while updating to the latest version (did that first to solve the heat problems).
After the last update *i lost my WIfi connection. Authentication failed* (didnt change something - was connecting - updating ok 1 minute before the last update).
After that i started testing ,Wps connection , No security Wifi etc etc.
*Finally at a random time (and with the initial settings) i got connected*. After i shut down the tablet the same problem occured.
After doing the same things again i finally got connected and this time it seems to be ok, even after i shut down the tablet.
However this is frustrating.
Maybe you have to sort this out?
I have seen and other people returning this tablet after having this problem.
It is not a hardware problem since its working ok before the update.
Of course tried factory reset twice.
Hope i dont have this problem again, *but i am informing in hope that you fix this in a future update.*

Toshiba sent me the fix for this. Figured I would use Facebook and they sorted a solution straight away.
It requires a complete reset. Not the soft reset from within Android.
I'll post it here as they will check through moderation I guess.
Thanks for sending a private message Ben. For us to get this resolved for you we would advise to perform a reset from the Android system recovery menu, to do the reset please follow these steps:
The reset process will delete any data, settings, and applications on your tablet. You must have a backup of any data you wish to keep before proceeding.
1. Make sure the tablet is off and not in standby.
2. Hold down the Volume Up and Power buttons simultaneously until the two Android icons appear.
3. Use the volume buttons to select the white box on the right.
4. Once selected, press the power button.
5. Use the volume buttons to select wipe cache partition and then press the power button.
6. Select Yes and press the power button.
7. Use the volume buttons to select wipe data/factory reset and then press the power button.
8. Select Yes and press the power button.
9. The tablet will now reset.
If you have any issues after the reset please get back to us as soon as possible!
Its been working well ever since. I guess the cache clean part might be the main one. You'll have to select the reboot yourself as I did at the end.
Might be best to use Facebook i'll see if I can find my post as the response was quick and efficient unlike their responses in here. I.e nowt from them so far.
They needed my name and serial numbers probably to log problems etc.
