Fix Slow WiFi Issue https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2398063?start=60&tstart=0
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

    Downloading using wifi is very slow for my ipad may i know what is the problem

    Maybe your internet speed is slow. Check your download speed.

  • After installing iOS7 update my WIFI is very slow.

    After installing iOS7 update my WIFI is very slow in my iPad 3rd Gen, iPhone 5 and iPhone 4. Is there a fix for this problem? I've reset my modem and AirPort Extreme 3rd gen. Problem still exists. Help

    (A) Reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

  • My wifi is very slow after installing mountain lion on my Mac book pro

    My wifi is very very slow after installing mountain lion on my MacBook pro.
    What can I do?

    Ha  ha, I misread that as "My wife is very slow after installing mountain lion on my Mac book pro"
    BTW on my MBPro (late 2009 with max RAM) Mountain Lion runs very well with no slowing down.

  • Just installed new Time Capsule, wifi now very slow, what amI doing wrong?

    Just installed new Time Capsule, wifi now very slow, what am I doing wrong?

    It's possible the reason it seems so slow, is that a backup might be in progress - and since it's the first backup everything on the disk is something that Time Machine is backing up and is being transferred across the WiFi at the same time as you're trying to use your Internet. So you're competing with Time Machine data flying across your WiFi along with your internet stuff. So if this is indeed what is happening (look at Time Machine to see if a backup is in progress), either pause the backup to a more convienent time or live with the slowness till the backup is done this first time, and after that you probably will not notice the "competition" on your WiFi. I like to schedule the Time Machine backups to late at night rather than once an hour (the default), but that schedule should be whatever you feel most comfortable with.
    There is a handy free utility called "TimeMachine Editor" that you can get from http://timesoftware.free.fr/timemachineeditor/ that lets you create your own customized backup schedule. You can create several schedules to fit your working conditions. I've used it for several years with never a problem. I don't have anything to do with the company - just a happy user.
    Good luck...

  • Installed my new Airport extreme and try to link it to airport express  but the wifi still very slow

    I installed my new Airport extreme today and try to link it to my airport express to expend my wifi coverage to my second floor  but the wifi si very slow on second florr not better then without express? what can I do??

    Hi Francois
    Any wired connection or WiFi network extension (using your AirPort Express) with your second floor will make your network signal stronger but not necessarly faster.  If your WiFi signal is so poor that internet connection keeps dropping, it will make a speed difference.  Otherwise the only difference you'll notice is that the range of the wireless network has increased.
    You say "wifi is very slow on the second floor".  Do you mean that the internet is slow?  Is it very fast on the first floor?
    Try checking your internet connection speed on a laptop on each floor:
    speedtest.net
    and press "begin test recommended server".
    The download speed should approximate your ISP contracted speed.  Upload speed will be a fraction of this.  Wifi will be slower but unless you have a super-fast internet connection, you probably shouldn't notice it.

  • JERRY HELP laptop keeps dropping wifi signal, very slow computer

    I have read some blogs here where Jerry Lippey?  has helped. PLEASE HELP!!   My c655d-s5200 satellite laptop constantly drops the wifi connection.  just in the registration for this site alone i had to reconnect about 10 times.  computer is only about 1 year old.  computer has always been very slow, even from day 1.  taking sometimes a full minute or two to change pages.  I never complained about it when it was under warranty.  I just lived with it.   and now that it just out of warranty,  I have changed from mediacom cable to us cellular wifi, I am finding out that I have more problems than I thought.  I have a good 4G singal and I am almost 100% sure it is not a problem with the hotspot.   it seems my computer takes way to long thinking. even from day 1 sometimes it will not print a letter that I know I typed.  It has most of the same problems as the person on a ship overseas did in another blog.  If you havnt figured out yet I am NOT familiar with the computer. or tech terms.  I am one of the dumbest ones on here.  I tried to search and identify my wifi  information by typing (pc diag ) in the search bar and no results came up. As I was going to try and redownload the driver.  I still have the windows 7 that was originally loaded.  I also have NO dates set to restore to.  can someone please help me out.  I am very disapointed with this toshiba computer.  PS it just took over 40 seconds to back space and delete a full sentence I decided not to say. 

    The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
    If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

  • Ipod Touch 5G- WiFi is very slow or won't work, even with 3 bars and stood next to the hub. Is there a problem with iOS 6.0.1? Any one know a way to fix it?

    Even with 3 signal bars on a 11mb/s connection. It takes more then 3 mintues to load Google fully!
    It works fine loading one page then goes back to being slow or no excitant. It seems to start working again after using speed test.
    At first i thought it was the case but after removing it there was no difference
    I have tried every thing i could think like:
    1. Turing it off and on again
    2. A complete restore and backup. (Done this about 3 times)
    I'm not sure if the new iOS 6.0.1 up date has caused this as it seemed to work fine for about a week after.
    Any help would be appreciated!

    I have same problem:
    I saw another topic on this but it was a couple of months old. Last month I purchased a ipod touch 5g. It runs great except the speedtest tops out at about .3 mbps down and 5 mbps up.  I don't understand what is going on. All my other wifi: Macs, ipod touch 4, ipad 2 & 3, etc work fine and get great speed of 9-15 mbps down and 5 mbps up. I can barely watch an Amazon video. Sometimes it goes fast but that is few and far between. I have tried resetting the network on it. I adusted my router for all the recomendations by Apple.
    It was suggested to remove the security on the router just to test it. I did that but it made no difference. This happens whether I'm close (10' or less) or farther away. Is there something I'm missing or do I need to return it?
    I keep seeing something about iOS 6.0.2 but my iPod Touch says I'm up to date at 6.0.1
    thanks,
    Bryce

  • Since the last two updates WIFI is very slow

    Hello, everybody!
    I mentioned, that YouTube was not fast enough to load as fast, as to play the video from the beginning to the end, without stop.
    The I measured the internet bandwith available: 193 kbps.
    My ipod touch is connected via WIFI directly to my MacBook. The MacBook shares the internet connection it has via ethernet, via WIFI to the iPOD.
    The Macbook has 20000 kbps available. Until one of the last updates I could use 3500 kbps of them on the ipod touch.
    Do I have to wait for the next update (bugfix), or can I help myself?
    The ping rountrip times are beetween 20 and 200 ms. When I put the intervall for ping to 0.1 seconds, the ping times come down to the normal 1 ms. During this heavy ping-Attack the available bandwith on the iPod is four times higher: 800 kbps. Still not nice, but enough for youTube to load fast enough.
    On another site I read, that it would help to switch WIFI to 11 Mbit. How do I do this on my MacBook?
    Thanks in advance -
    Klaus.

    This is such a PITA! I do not have time to troubleshoot software. Many of us spend our lives starting at a computer and this crap destroys productivity!
    I did recently replace Adobe Reader because it started taking 10+ seconds to open a document on my desktop. Found Foxit reader (unassociated with Firefox I believe) and solved that problem. And I just removed all Adobe products (Flash Player) and it does seem to speed things up considerably. Granted at some point I will need a flash player (don't know if there is an alternative) and if the slowness reoccurs in Firefox I guess I will switch to Chrome. Sad, I really like Firefox, except when it is slower than death tied to a stump.
    It does appear that Adobe products are what is currently destroying world productivity. It's amazing that they could beat Microsoft in this category. They must have put forth a monumental effort to achieve this.

  • Wifi LAN VERY slow on mac mini 10.6.8

    All,
    I have a mac mini 1.66 intel core Duo with 2gb of RAM.  The HD crashed a couple months ago and so it has a clean version of 10.6.8 on it. 
    In my house I have a Motorola modem (comcast) hooked to a vonage box with wifi.  Off this we run 2 MBP's a wifi printer, and the Mini.
    Both MBP's will get 10mb down and 3-5mb up on speedtest.net.
    The Mini will get .9 down and .7 or so up.  It also became non-responsive using VNC to control it, so it's not so much that the internet is slow, but more that it just isn't connecting to the LAN with any speed.  It is connected to my router (no security)  with a signal/noise of -75/-98 and a transmit rate of 48.
    I had shared my Dish Network box out via ethernet (airport sharing to ethernet) and had done the terminal prompt fix which is found all over the net to allow DHCP on internet sharing.  However, it doesn't matter if I turn off internet sharing, the local speeds are still just terribly slow.
    This is a big problem since it's used as our media center for streaming netflix, etc...
    Any help?  Where to start?
    Thanks,

    If reinstalling doesn't help, you'll probably need to contact Macroplant support:

  • Wifi is very slow in S6000L

    I had my Lenovo S6000L working fine until a couple of months back. But recently I am unable to browse or access internet from the tablet. It shows that is connected to Wifi and even if I sit right next to my wireless router and see full signal strength on the tablet, it never loads a webpage. It is **bleep** slow. Other devices connected to the same router works fine. None of the apps are able to load data quickly as well. Do you guys know the solution or should I send it back to Lenovo before my warranty expires?

    Welcome mahes_11
    1. You could try to backup all your files to PC or cloud and do a factory reset (Settings > Backup and Restore).
    2. Install Wi-Fi Analyzer from Google Play to boost your wireless signal.
    3. If 1. and 2. does not work, send for warranty.

  • After macbook air and macbook pro backup on tc wifi is very slow

    I have been great with my macbook air and the time capsule. Everything was working perfect til I just got a macbook pro, I just did a backup and now the wifi is down to 0.02mbps. The weird issue: if I turn off the pro, the wifi goes back to 6mbps. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    The two are interfering with each other.. or one is bouncing the other.
    Remember wireless has limited bandwidth.. AC or not.. and it is divided (time sliced) between all the clients.. so if the MBP has the right settings it might be capturing the connection.
    There are a few things you can do.
    1. Check if both computers are linking at the same speed and on the same band.
    Hold down the option key and click on the wifi symbol top right menu.. and check the exact values on each.. perhaps give us a screenshot from each computer.
    Looks like this.
    2. Force the connection to different bands.
    Use a different name for 5ghz and 2.4ghz.. eg as you can see.. TC5ghz and TC24ghz are my correctly named wireless from TC.. (short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric)
    I can then force units to join the band I want it to.

  • Lion 10.7.1 wifi reconnection very slow

    Hi there
    After upgrading my Lion to 10.7.1 my wifi takes about a minute to reconnect after sleep mode.
    The strange thing is that the wifi icon shows full connection like it normal does, but safri wont connect during this minute.
    However microsoft messenger connects and goes online right away!
    Anyone has experienced this problem?
    Regards,
    Kelly_DK

    Sounds like your using the "Empty Trash securely" option. Open Finder preferences from the main bar and click the Advanced icon. See if the Empty Trash securely box is checked. If it is then just uncheck it.

  • Wifi is very slow with IOS 8.02

    iPhone 5C. Sites take a long tone to load; connects quickly, then does nothing for sometimes 10 seconds. An iPhone 4, side by side is much faster accessing the same site on the same wifi network. Rests phone, no change. Tried 5Ghz, no change. Want to roll back, - can it be done?

    8.1 is reportedly being released Monday. With any luck, that may resolve some issues.

  • Wifi connection very slow and interrupted after several minutes

    My wifi connection is interrupted after several minutes. I can restart the connection with wifi assisted, diagnose tool. It indicates always ISP failure. When I go through the assistant, it sows that the network connection was changed, and the wifi connection is back. But only for some minutes, then I have to go the the assistant again, and again and again. Also the wifi protocoll tool did not help me.
    Meantime I don't have any problems with my IPad or Iphone.
    In the web I found plenty of other users with MacBook Pro (Retina) OS X Yosemite, Version 10.10.2 with similar problems. When will apple fix this bug?
    Do somebody has in idea how to fix it?
    Thanks for your support!

    You posted in the support forum for the Apple routers......AirPort Express, Airport Extreme and Time Capsule.....the products pictured below:
    But, your post seems to describe a connection issue that you are experiencing with your MacBook Pro.  We are not sure how an Apple router might be involved here if your other devices are connecting well.
    You will likely receive a much faster and more informed response if you post your question in the support area for the MacBook Pro linked just below:
