Wifi stopped working on home network, works on neighbours network

Since a few days i suddenly can't connect to the internet on my home network with my MacBook Pro Late 2011 running OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.1, but when i connect to my neighbours network it works flawless. Nothing changed in my own network.
I have tried to delete the settings of my home network and set it back again. I also deleted the WIFI within my network settings and add a new one this had no result. When i use the "option" key on the wifi symbol it says internet: unreachable (in dutch) i do get a IP-address and the Router address. On my other computers (Windows based) there are no connection problems. My iPad and iPhone don't have any problems as well. It is only the macbook with this issue.
I do have a new Bluetooth 1.4 / Wifi chip (8 weeks ago but it worked perfectly and still does on my neighbours network), but if this was the problem i believe i would not be able to connect to the internet at all. When i connect to my neighbours network i can download any webpage or file very fast.
If there is anyone who knows a possible solutions i would love to hear this. Thank you in advance.

Hi drpiso,
Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it seems like the computer is the only device having trouble connecting only to your home network. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none receive

Hi,
WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none received"... Help
I have tried network diagnostics which doesnt help... The only other ting is, when I woke the computer up it said tat another device was using my IP... My wife had plugged her phone into the computer to charge etc but even when i turn wifi off on the phone there is no change... also in settings on the phone the IP address is different...

The answer to your question is - neither!
Your PC should to configured to obtain an IP address automatically, and to obtain DNS server IP addresses automatically, from the Airport Express. This is the way Windows (and Macs for that matter) are configued by default, and that is the way most people have their computers set up. If you manually configured your PC's IP address to be the same as your wife's Mac, it certainly explains why your PC is not able to access the internet.

I have iPhone 4s, after i updated my software to 7.0.4 my wifi stopped working. The wifi icon at the top is gone. Its annoying that i have to us my data all the time. I've tried the network reset, it didn't work. My phone works fine, just a lilttle bit slow before i upadated to 7.0.4. And now not only the wifi, the phone itself is slower than ever. I wish i didn't udgrade to iOs 7. There's too much problems. There's this one time that I can't send iMessage at all.

Hi s.kouris,
I'm afraid that unless you are able to contact the previous owner and have him wipe the device, or provide you with his Apple ID password so you can delete the iCloud account, you are out of luck.
With iOS 7, an Activiation Lock was added to deter thieves. This lock prevents anyone but the owner of the device from deleting the iCloud account and restoring the device:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5818
Unless you are able to reach the original owner and get the device wiped or the iCloud account deleted, you are stuck with a brick.
Sorry,

My ipod is cracked and it chipped away a little more last night and that's when my wifi stopped working. My wifi works on every other device in my house except for my ipod. Is there something wrong with my ipod?

Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Try right next to the router
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Could it be this?
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

What do I do when WiFi stops working?

What do I do when WiFi stops working?

Have you done a reset on the device? Hold down the home button + the lock button for about 10-20 seconds until the white Apple logo appears. Once the phone resets, see if this helps.
If not, go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings and see if that helps.

Hi Gunjan,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you've already tried a few troubleshooting steps, but these links may offer some additional tips:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
If you are using a public or commercial network that requires a login or subscription, see this article for more information.
Verify that you are selecting the correct network if you are in a location with multiple Wi-Fi networks.
Verify that the Wi-Fi network settings are correct. You can view and configure Wi-Fi settings using the following steps:
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi.
Locate the Wi-Fi network you are currently using and tap .
If you've verified that your settings are correct and the issue persists, try the following:
Tap "Forget this Network" to reset settings for this Wi-Fi network, including the password. Then try connecting to the network again.
Note: This can be useful if you identify a network issue and want to prevent the device from automatically using this network in the future.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings, including passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
Note: If the Wi-Fi network uses MAC address filtering, you will need to add the MAC address to the access list for the Wi-Fi router. The MAC address for your device is listed as the Wi-Fi address in Settings > General > About.

Wifi stops working when NTP sync occurs

Every few days I have a problem where the WiFi stops working on my time capsule running v7.6.3. All of the cleints in the house (Mac Mini, two Macbook Pros, iPad, two iPhones) stop simultanously and don't see the wifi network at all.
At that point I get an Ethernet cable and check out the logs. Frequently I see a message similar to the following:
Nov 29 18:21:13
Severity:5
Clock synchronized to network time server time.apple.com (adjusted +810754969 seconds).
Nov 29 15:21:12
Severity:5
Clock synchronized to network time server time.apple.com (adjusted +811604500 seconds).
There are plenty of log entries where NTP sync is successful. I have an Airport Express running 7.6.3 that uses time.apple.com and this is never a problem, only on my time capsule.
I've performed a factory reset twice and it doesn't help. Today I've switched the NTP server to 'us.pool.ntp.org' to see what happens. I also notice that when I power cycle it, the time reverts to January (year unknown) until a sync occurs.
Has anyone else ever seen this? I have an OG 1st gen Time Capusle.

No its new to me bcoz no matter u move latop anywhere up,down,tilt anything shouldnt happen at all,i move mine all directions without loss if this continue to u better go to apple to test sound like interfering inside no idea of this,u cant keep doin restart all the time....its not right........

Ipod touch wifi stopped working

please help

this is the same thing that happened to me all of a sudden my wifi stopped working even though i have full bars on the connectivity. it sometimes works in patches though but only for like 5 minutes, its kind of annoying because if you think it would work and you try it doesn't.

Wifi stopped working suddenly

wifi stopped working suddenly? and will not turn on in system preferances
Under the Advanced wi-fi Address: 00:00:00:00:00:00
Just clicked on the wi-fi symbol on top bar (sorry do not know name of bar, if some else dose?) and it states that No Hardware installed
Any help please.

I can add my macbook pro to the list of 'wifi: no hardware installed' victims.
At the London Regent Street Store yesterday (after an hour's wait beyond appointment time) the Genius test said it was a hardware fault and the airport card must be faulty/dead. However, when I got home I turned the mbp on and, as if by magic, wifi was working normally. About 3 hours later it failed. I switched off overnight. It's been dead most of the day so I did a complete clean up using Onyx, restarted and, yes, you guessed it, wifi was back.
I guess it could be a faulty airport card but it seemsthere are an awful lot of airport cards failing all at the same time! Coincidence or a software glitch post 10.7.2? Various forums now seem to have plenty of entries from mac owners with this same problem.
How do we get an official response from Apple on this? In my experience Apple are fantastic at addressing this kind of issue once they know. How can we ensure they are aware?

WiFi stops working after install of latest 10.8.5 update on MacBook 5,1 third time reinstall OS X

WiFi stops working after install of latest 10.8.5 update on MacBook 5,1 third time reinstall OS.
MB used as email and surfing tool when on vacation. Worked fine for months. Installed the latest security patch (update) and WiFi quit working. Two days later (still on vacation) WiFi started working again and worked fine for the next 2 days.
Came home and formatted and reinstalled 10.8.5 and all was fine again. We are selling the MacBook and setup new user, everything worked fine.
The update came up again so I decided to install it and WiFi instantly stopped working after the restart.
Does anybody have any idea what is happening.
Thanks

Not really, although WiFi has been a longstanding problem for lots of people. I fix for some breaks others.
However, if you are trying to sell it, you need to revert it back to the OS that shipped with it. You cannot sell your copy of Mountain Lion with the Mac. It is only licensed to you.
You also need to include the system disks that came with the Mac. If it came with Leopard (10.5), and you have a Snow Leopard (10.6) disk, you can install that if you provide that disk also.

Time capsule wifi stops working with MacBooks, but nothing else

I have a newer model time capsule. Lately, the wifi stops working intermittently on my macbook pro and the wife's macbook air. While this is happening, our iphones and other peripherals have functional wifi. This resolves if I reboot the time capsule. Even more weird is that the 'guest network' on the time capsule will work fine while the main wifi network remains non-functional.
Fairly annoyed, please help

It isn't strange at all.. it is a feature of Lion.. totally unstable useless networking.. particularly wireless.
I would be very surprised if you came back and told me you were on Snow still.
If Lion was installed by upgrade, worse and worse.. clean install seems to reduce if not remove the issues.
So ring Apple .. keep annoyed at their new vista class OS. Did you turn that off and on again??
I can suggest a few things..
Short wireless and network names.. no spaces.. pure alphanumeric. Different name for 5ghz to stop band swapping.
Lock wireless to on a/n -b/g
Lock wireless channels.
Use wpa2 personal security only.. with 8-12 character passkey.. pure alphanumeric.
Set dhcp to very short lease time.. 30min.. might help Lion to remember the name of the TC.. otherwise it suffers from early onset dementia and alzheimer's.

If you're trying use your hotspot and connected to wifi on your iphone, does the wifi stop working and start using your data instead of staying connected to the wifi?

Thanks for the quick response. What you have said makes sense but there is no rhyme or reason to he data used. I reset my cellular data counter to zero so both sent and received read zero. I was connected to wifi and let the phone to go into sleep mode. I waited about ten minutes and sent myself the same email four times, each with a 750 kb attachment. It was sent to my .me address so it was push mail on my phone. Sure enough I checked a minute later while bringing the phone out of sleep mode and checked the data. It showed just 10kb sent but 1mb received which just doesn't tally with the 4 x 750kb mails received. It just isn't making sense.
He knows what you asked and has already answered it!
I thought I had read where the iOS4 (or maybe just the iPhone 4) was supposed to be able to keep wifi connections alive while inactive. If the phone is sitting there on a charger with a wifi connection available, why use the 3G?

When I connect my External HD my WiFi stops working.

When I connect my External HD my WiFi stops working. Anyone knows why?????

I do have the same problem with my MBP 15" (late 2013) on the right USB-Port as well. It still works when I use the left one.
As the external hard drive has its own power source I suggest it doesn't have anything to do with the difference regarding the provided power of the right and left side...(?)
Is this problem solved yet?
