Wireless gets lost

After a while my mini loses the Hotel's wireless network. It shows connected and good strength but little snitch only shows little blips of out going data that belongs to mDNS responder and no incoming traffic. When trying to down load updates it takes so long due to low bandwidth at the hotel my connection to update gets dropped by the problem above. The only way I can get the connection back is to restart. This is new since my last system update. I was given a PC laptop so I have it when in the field to print labels and get job updates and my girlfriend has a PC laptop and they do not lose the connection at all.

Sounds like the hotel's wireless network is flakey. I've had that experience in the past as well. I use OpenDNS servers.
System Preferences>Network>Advanced>DNS.
Click the + in the left side column and add the following:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Click OK, then click Apply.

  • Password for Wireless Connection is getting lost in ATV

    HI, since I updated my ATV to 3.01 my password for the Wireless connection is getting lost at least once a day! I always have to type in the password new.
    I had this problem already some months ago, but then it worked fine. Now after the latest update the problem pops up again!
    Any idea what this could be?
    Thanks,
    Michael

    Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
    Whilst I understand that losing the password is an issue and a time consuming chore to retype back in, surely your first issue is why you keep losing connection to need to reconnect in the first place.
    What type of security are you using on your network, have you tried changing channels to avoid interference.

  • Anchor mobility configuration getting lost in wlc 5508 ios code 7.4.100.0

    It is observed that in WLC 5508 , ios 7.4.100.0 ,  mobility anchor configuration on wlan  is getting lost .  we configure anchor ip address on  guest wlan > mobility anchor >  Switch IP Address (Anchor).
    We have configured the template on NCS 2.0 to push the anchor mobility ip address on all WLC
    Has anyone oberved this behavoiur. We have more than 100 WLC  , and  everyweek  mobility anchor configuration is lost on some WLC having code  7.4.100.0.

    I am having this exact same problem.  I am running 7.3 on 5508 WLC.   My remote site LAP's are using Flex (HREAP).  The initial access point that my laptop associates to connects with no problem, as soon as I wander out of range of the initial LAP and into the area of another access point, I lose data connectivity.   The was validated like the original post as I start a constant ping on the LAN and watch as the ping latency increases and then ping replies stop.  The only way to correct the problem is resetting of the wireless adapter on the laptop.  Side note my DroidX has no problem wandering from AP to AP.
    Laptop: Windows 7 32bit
    I then returned to my home site and test where I have a secondary controller and the LAP's are configured for local mode, no problems roaming from access point to access point.   Validated with constant ping test.  The pings drop for a second and re-
    continues as the laptop reconnects.

  • Qosmio X500: Lan/Internet connection get lost after period of time

    Hi all,.
    I got the qosmio x500 for about half a year now...
    I got this problem where after about 5 hours or less the lan/internet connection get lost.
    I disabled the wireless connection and is using only the wired connnection now.
    When it get disconnected... all devices seems to work seemlessly, no problem can be found. I checked the win7 network adaptor --and it seems to be connected properly.
    I haven't got a slightest idea how to fix that.... Only a reset of the system and reloading the os results with a valid connection.
    It is even stranger,. When using it for a piriod of time (listeding to audio streams from the web)... when getting back to the machine the audio connection seems to work properly.... but when trying to access other sites, or other machines in the homegroup, or network (under explorer). It result faulty.
    Please guide me somehow how to fix the issue, it is bugging me a lot (all these resets to the machine probably doesn't do it any good as well).
    thanks in advance,.

    Hi,
    It could be the energy saving feature of your network card.
    Right click Network Icon on the status bar, choose 'Open Network Center and Sharing', Click on 'Connection', Click on 'Properties' (low left button), you'll see the tab with your Network Properties. Click 'Configure' (Upper right button), choose 'Power Management' (last right tab).
    Uncheck 'Allow computer to shut down this device to save energy'. Probably your problem will now be solved.
    If the names I write aren't exactly right, I'm on a French language computer so my translations can be slightly wrong.
    Bye,

  • MAGIC MOUSE & WIRELESS KEYBOARD - LOST CONNECTION

    Hi guys,
    I get confused why the mouse and the wireless keyboard lost it's connection from time to time. I cannot explain it and I don't know what to do except wait for it to reconnect. It's kinda annoying. Is this an issue with the software or something?
    many thanks

    This disconnection problem seems to be a major problem with anything Apple! I have had this problem for months now, as have others and have tried everything that has been suggested in this Forum, all to no avail.
    On the assumption that may be, just may be, someone from Apple will read the myriad of problems associated with the constant disconnection of wireless products produced by/for them, they will get it sorted. But it has been going on for years it seems to me, and still there is no tangible work around or permanent fix.
    I am reaching the stage where I will be throwing my MM out the window soon along with any of the other wireless connected items I have. (Keyboard, Number Pad, MM and Track Pad.) There just does not seem to be any answer that works permanently. Never ever had this problem when I used the Windows system and am getting a wee bit miffed that I changed from Windows to Apple. The most unreliable piece of kit ever to come out of a Computer Shop!!

  • Apple Wireless Keyboard lost connection when "command+space" is pressed

    Hi, my apple wireless keyboard lost connection when command and space key was pressed. it does not lost connection when other keys combination was pressed. Are there any people has the same problem with me?
    I am using Emacs all the time, the command and space key is the default short cut for Mark in Emacs. It is constantly used in my daily work. The wireless keyboard does not lost connection always, but it does lost connection sometimes. I have observed every time it lost connection, the command + space was pressed. Really strange. Any advice?
    I am using Macbook Pro 13inch Late 2012,  OSX 10.9.1, and Apple Wireless Keyboard

    Got the keyboard working again, here how incase it can help anyone else:
    I borrowed a USB keyboard to allow me to get past the pasword login.
    First I rang disk utitlity to repair any permissions. I opended up the app 'Bluetooth Setup Assistant' selected 'Keyboard' then I turned the keyboard 'on' so the green light is flashing' and then hit continue. At this point the keyboard appears in the listing of found items, hitting continue I am then given a unique pairing code. Enter this on the keyboard and hit 'Return' after a few seconds, the pairing is complete and by wireless keyboard is back and working again!

  • How do I use the Verizon Service & Protection app to locate my phone if it gets lost?

    The Verizon Support & Protection app (VZ Protect) is installed on my phone and is supposed to help me if my phone is lost or stolen by allowing me to find it on a map, lock it, erase my data from it, etc.  But I found it nearly impossible to figure out what I should do in the event that actually did get lost or stolen.
    I logged into my My Verizon account from my computer (which is probably what I would do if I lost my phone), but unfortunately there isn't anything on the site to help a person who has actually lost their phone or had it stolen to quickly and easily locate it.  Most of the links I found were only promoting Verizon's services and the app, but nothing on how to use it.
    I tried searching for things I might type if I had actually lost my phone (like, "missing phone", "stolen phone", "find lost phone").  I had to go into the "How to Use Guide: Verizon Support & Protection" page, which I was only able to find on the  Verizon Support & Protection FAQs  page), in order to find a link that told me I had to go to the Verizon Support & Protection App website  to use this service.
    There really should be something more obvious right on the My Verizon site.

    Purchase a replacement remote.
    The remote is required for configuring the ATV and setting up the remote app on iDevices.

  • Hello Apple? How do i fixed my problem with my ipad apps every time i open that apps it takes 10min. to play the games ant its getting LOST MODE and the ipad system is crashing

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    Have you tried closing all apps via the iPad's multitasking bar and then doing a soft-reset and seeing that helps ? To close all apps :
    iOS 7: double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag each app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
    iOS 6 and below : from the home screen (i.e. not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    I haven't gotten a new sim card because the problem has been presenting itself in various cards not only mine. So far, all I've done is reset my network settings.
    Last night, I turned off the 3G tab and it had all the signal bars. Today, I did the network reset and it's working apparently. But like I said before, previously the bars just disappear and the iphone only has the 3G activated.

    I recently purchased a second hand new macbook air, although it was second hand to me the previous owner had never actually turned it on.
    Something doesn't make sense here, though I'm not saying the previous owner is lying....
    Time to send your serial # to iTS and let them see what's happening here.

  • 'D' Value in UPDMOD field getting lost in Transformation,Delete not working

    Hello all,
    We are using this datasource 0PU_IS_PS_32 for Funds management, the datasource has UPDMOD field in it, which is basically the 0RECORDMODE. So when they delete the document on R/3 side we can pick up the delete.
    Now this is what is happening in the delta infopackage, I get the delat records in the delta infopackage and I see a "D" in the UPDMOD field, but that value of D is getting lost when i load the data from PSA to the DSO through transofrmation by using DTP.
    After the request is loaded in DSO, before activating the request I check in New Data table and the field does not have a value of "D" anymore so when I activate the request the system does not know that those records are "D" delete records and so the records are not getting deleted from DSO.
    Has anyone faced this before, how can I fix it. The transformation is just one to one mapping no routines or formulas of any kind.
    Thanks for your help in advance.

    Hi,
    It is mandatory that u map upmode to 0recordmode. In the rule group there will be 2 groups. One will be ur normal mapping and other should be used to map 0recordmode

    Purchase a couple of these when they go on sale.
    Start burning all the photos onto DVDs. 
    At least you'll have all your photos if your computer, time machine or any other backup you use goes bonkers.

  • Data getting lost in essbase

    We use a replicated partition to copy data from planning to essbase application. Partition works fine and data gets copied. We have another separate maxl script which does changes to the outline. This script exports the data from essbase, clears the database, updates the outline, reimports the exported data and does a cube build. Once this maxl completes, whatever data copied from planning is lost. But if I look at the export file, planning data exist in the export file. We know import process is working fine, because other data not loaded thru partition exist in essbase.. Only data loaded from planning gets lost..
    Can someone help me on this issue?

    Hi Mahe,
    1. You maxl does the following things
    exports data
    clears data
    updates the outline
    reimports the data
    2. After you reimport,Are you trying to retrive to confirm the data ?
    3. After you reimport the data, check the properties of database ( check whether the new blocks have been loaded , and increased the count ).
    4. Are you exporting all data , or only level 0 ?
    5. If its only level 0, You need to aggregate or consolidate ( by running calculation script).
    Hope this helps
