Wireless internet can't connect in morning

There are many mornings when I find my internet connection disconnected. I can usually get connection by going to my Network prefs and clicking the Renew DHCP Lease button. Sometimes I have to go to my router's settings page to manually connect by hitting the connect button (PPPoE status will say "disconnected"). I have a Linksys BEFW11S4 802.11b router with DSL.
Is the problem with my ISP, my router, or OS X? When nobody uses the internet during the night, is something causing the connection to drop by morning time?

this seems to be a growing problem with 10.4.4. A lot of people are having this issue and there seems to be no solution yet.

    How many sets of wireless headphones can I connect to my iPad at one time?

    Did you mean Bluetooth? One. Did you mean FM or infrared, driven from the 3.5mm output jack? Any number of them, assuming you use the same frequency to receive the stream.

  • How many wireless devices can be connected at once to an airport extreme?

    How many wireless devices can be connected to an airport extreem at one time? I have 4 iphones and 2 ipads, a goolge chrome and 4 wired devices.

    Any AirPort Extreme produced since 2008 will support up to 50 wireless devices and 150+ wired devices simultaneously, so this should accommodate most users in most homes.

  • Can connect to LAN wirelessly but can not connect to the internet.

    The problem:
    I can connect to the wireless router and modem router wireless and can browse the router setting web pages etc without issue. However i can not browse the internet, send or receive mail etc.
    The setup:
    A Belkin/iinet modem connects to the internet (ip 10.1.1.1), a DLink 565 then broadcasts the signal wirelessly (ip 10.1.1.100).
    What i have tried:
    Trusty old powercycle
    I know the internet is working via the wifi as my ipod touch has full internet functionality through my wifi.
    I have tried using ip address instead of urls to browse the web to no luck.
    I have tried deleting Libary\Preferences\SystemConfiguration\preferences.plist
    I have tried reseting the DHCP lease.
    The only other thing i know works (eventually) is if i constantly change locations back and forth and turn airport on and off repeatedly, eventually i will get on the wifi but that can take upwards of an hour.
    The macbook also works fine via ethernet connected to the wireless router.

    Check these details:
    1. Right click your wireless connection
    2. Select STATUS
    3. Select the SUPPORT tab
    4. Select the DETAILS button
    You should see a page with all sorts of network details.
    Make sure that you see the following:
    1. You have an assigned IP address from your router
    2. You have a default gateway address -- typically the IP address of your router.
    3. A primary and alternate DNS server address (the router gets
    these from your ISP and passes them along during DHCP connect
    processing.)
    I found that step #3 did not happen reliably. Your mileage may vary. I set DNS server values into my router, based on what I got from my ISP, so that the connect-time data handoff was not required. A large part of my troubles went away.

  • WRT54GS wireless router can't connect to internet

    I'm now using an WRT160N wireless router, everything is ok, nothing happens
    i have an  WRT54GS (ver 6) wireless router that i have not used for 2 years.
    yesterday i took the WRT54GS out of the junk box, and replaced the WRT160N by the WRT54GS
    i have a desktop that is wired & a wireless lap top. my desktop does recognise the local network and my laptop does receive the signal but the my router can't connect to the internet.
    i did try everything:
    reset
    upgrade firmware
    but nothing worked
    can someone help. my ISP is comcast and this is my modem http://www.motorola.com/Consumers/US-EN/Consumer-Product-and-Services/Cable-Modems-and-Gateways/SURF...
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Bypass the router and connect the main computer directly to the modem.
    Make sure that you can access the Internet on your main computer directly through the modem.
    Connect the modem to the Internet port and main computer to the Ethernet port on the router.
    Press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds. Release the reset button and wait for 30 seconds. Power cycle the router and reconfigure it manually.
    Follow this link to configure the router with CABLE Internet service.

  • D-Link wireless + Cable Internet:: can't connect via AirPort

    Just got my service changed from DSL to Cable and can't connect via wireless (but can with an Ethernet cable). Have tried the Wi Router settings to no avail. Any ideas? I think I might not be doing some setting in the comp correctly. Please help. Router is D-Link DIR-625.

    Did you open Airport and see if you see the wireless router? If you can see it, you can select it and then make sure it is set up properly in networks in the system prefs.

  • Wireless Network - can't connect!!

    Lenovo N 3000 running Windows Vista Business
    Product 0769A64
    I can't connect to wireless internet. Am at the end of my tether and hope it's something simple!
    This is what's happening so far...
    Using Access Connections, I can use the wireless radio to find the network I want. It's a public wireless connection (in a library). It has signal strength of 60%. This has been more than fine for me in the past. Everyone else is using it so why can't I!?!?!
    When I try to connect through Access Connections, I get the following message:
    Unable to connect to the selected wireless network. You may need to configure your system to support the authentication method that is in use. Do you want to configure now?
    I click Yes, (don't really know what I'm doing at this point so just OK out of that window)
    Then it tries to connect. It then goes through Applying wireless settings - OK, then when it says 'waiting for association, it fails.
    If I connect through networks, I can connect to the local network only, but not the internet.
    What I've tried to fix it (don't even know if any of this is relevant...):
    Made sure it's automatically setting IP address.
    Switched off Windows Firewall
    Boot in safe mode.
    Checked the network adapter and it is working properly and has up to date drivers.
    In Control Panel- Network connections, under Wireless Network Connections, I've disabled/enabled TCP/IPv6 and TCP/IPv4 in various combinations.
    Thought I may as well let the cat have a go at fixing it after all that lot.
    Run command prompt as administrator.
    ipconfig /release shows: No operation can be performed on Wireless Network connection while
    it has its media disconnected
    ipconfig /all shows:

    Then a load of stuff about Tunnel adapters - *6, *7 and *9 are discomnnected. Apparently.
    Tried to run PC Doctor on the network card and it passed the following tests:
    PCI Express Status Test
    Wireless Connectivity Test
    Wireless signal Strength Test
    Network Link Test
    But it couldn't run the :
    TCP/IP Network Communication Test
    Any help at all would be incredibly gratefully received!!
    Thanks, Claire.

    I just purchased a Thinkpad from Lenovo with the Intel 5100 AGN wireless card in it. I kept losing my connection to the Internet. I searched on the web for a solution and tried a number of the suggestions, one of which solved one problem (access connections was turning off the wireless radio during inactivity to "save power"), but the problems persisted, even after I let Windows manage the connections.
    The first symptom I noticed was that Windows could not find any networks. The next one I noticed was that the signal strength would drop very low. I even saw that when the laptop was 2 feet away from the router.
    I finally came to the point where I was suspecting the Intel 5100 AGN itself. I have 2 other computers that use my wireless router and they have no problems, and people have come over with laptops and have not had any problems.
    The router I have is D-Link Di-624 Xtreme-G. It seems to work just fine. I reconfigured the router to not use its Super-G mode. That appears to have eliminated the problem. It is still too early to be sure since the problem is intermittent, but it has stayed connected for a day now (whereas I used to lose the connection frequently in any given day).
    I can't say for sure if the problem is with the 5100 AGN card, but I suspect it is. Given that I have never had this kind of problem with other computers (with varying cards) but only with this new one, the culprit seems to be the Intel 5100 AGN.
    There are a lot of posts on the web about this very problem and no one seems to have found the answer.
    I may have fixed the problem within my home by reconfiguring the router, but I can't do that for other routers (eg in a coffee shop). Other people have "solved" the problem by buying a new router (an expensive solution). The real fix has to be in the 5100 AGN itself, either a better driver (I have the latest version 12.1.0.14), or some card configuration (or else somehow replace it with a better wireless card).

  • HT3624 I am in a campground and my wireless internet won't connect on my MacBook Pro. Help

    I am in a campground and I can't get the wireless internet to work it worked before now it doesn't. I think
    I did something and messed it up. I was in the network area of system profiler and it was on
    air port and I hit the - at the bottom and it went away when I put it back it hasn't worked
    since. Help!

    I was in a hotel a few month a ago.  The hotel also had a portal page you have to sign in.  Of course the ATV didn't a web browser and could not sign in to the portal and connect to the Internet, so your iTunes didn't work.  (But your ATV should be connected to the router at that point already, just the portal won't open the port to pass through your ATV's traffic)
    So what I did was to use AirVideo app on my iPad and AirVideo server on my Mac. Selected the movie on  my iPad using the AirVideo app and then selected my AirPlay device on my iPad to AppleTV.  Because this setup didn't require iTunes, so there was no need for a live Internet connection, and just a connection to the hotel router was enough.  It was very easy.
    (Of course, you can subsititude the iPad with an iPhone here too)

    How can i do this?
    this is my setup atm:

    first of all.. it is my public ip found on http://whatismyipaddress.com/. This is my modem ip as well right?
    for the local ip i know my modem is 192.168.1.1 and my pc =   192.168.1.3, but that shouldn't matter now.

  • Since June 3, 2013 MiFi 4g Verizon wireless internet will not connect to my Face Book

    I am using the MiFi 4G Verizon wireless internet connection. Since Monday, June 3, 2013, the only internet site I cannot get into now is my Face Book. If I do finally get in anything I click on is dead or just sits there and spins. I thought I had been hacked but after 3 days of trying I finally was able to get into my FB account settings and changed my password. So I know I wasn't hacked. It takes try after try to get into the FB, but generally nothing is clickable. After having it so many years why all of a sudden is this happening and to only this site on my wireless connection? My Daughter has cable internet connection and she is having not one problem. Her FB loads right up. Then I hear on the tv all this stuff about the gov spying on Verizon customers. Not just phones but they say FB too. I pay for my internet connection and should be able to get all sites. Is anyone else having this problem all of a sudden?

    Hi. I had replied to muttandjeff on his question internet issues as I was having the same problem and all pc's and laptops in my house and my husband's FB account too. Anyway, after about 5 days of this I had tried once again one evening to get into FB and it went right in! I thought wow. So I came back here to muttandjeff's posts to find that he had ;posted abount an hour before I got there that all of a sudden he could get into FB. And that was about the same time for me too. So I posted to him that we could now too all of a sudden. Anyway, as long as I have had my MiFi and my FB account, this is the first time this has ever happened and I do appreciate that you all keep up with what is going on in this forum and that the problem has been resolved. Thank you! Also, on my question before I logged out it said question not answered and beside it then was an insert to mark as question now assumed answered. I clicked on that. Thanks again!!!!

  • Time capsule wireless router can not connect both Macbook and iPad

    Currently my new time capsule can only connect my macbook pro wirelessly or by ethernet. My iPad or PC can not been connected to it. I guess the setting for the router is something wrong, but I do not know how to fix it. The settings indicate that there is no DNS address, and the router is off (bridged). I tried to change the router setting, but does not succeed. Sincerely ask for help.

    The settings indicate that there is no DNS address, and the router is off (bridged). I tried to change the router setting, but does not succeed. Sincerely ask for help.
    Sorry but I need you to clarify.. router is off.. what router are you talking about??
    If the clients do not have DNS, have you tried just supplying the standard google dns ie... 8.8.8.8 (very lucky number for Chinese) or 8.8.4.4
    http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/
    You can usually set dns manually whilst still using DHCP for IP address.
    But better to start again.. reset the TC..
    Give it a simple name .. no spaces.. all alphanumeric.. the default name is NOT windows networking valid.
    eg I name my TC.. TC1
    Wireless name.. same rules.. I use TC24 and TC5 (I use separate names for 2.4ghz and 5ghz as I do not want computers auto swapping bands) I also set channels manually.. again because I do not want them auto swapping channels.
    Wireless passwords.. same rules.. you need to make it a bit longer of course.. but pure alphanumeric no spaces.
    In the disk area, assuming you want disk access.. then put in the WORKGROUP name.. usually WORKGROUP.. in caps btw.
    If you do all that it will usually also work with iPad.

  • Intel pro wireless card can not connect

    Since some weeks, i can not use my wireless network, it does not associate the access point.
    The cared is a intel pro, using the agn driver.
    I can not connect to my wep key protected home network, or public, unprotected accesspoints.
    I tried various parameters with iwconfig, without success, so I assume the kernel module is broken.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Rather than blaming devs for putting out faulty software, if I were you I'd look at myself - the PEBKAC problem . So an upgrade broke it. When was this? What packages where upgraded? Check your pacman log (yes, it exists).
    You are aware the module name for Intel's wireless cards changed? Instead of referring to the card model it's now iwlcore and iwlagn. But then again, if you let udev figure it out, there shouldn't be the slightest problem in that upgrade.
    Care to share any of your cherished errors? Without them there's not much we can do. The BBS has been out of crystal bowls for a long time.
    Dear mr. B, I do not blame anybody anything. I report, as is, it does not work. On my system, in the hope that someone have something meaningful to say, not because I hoped for you to call me names. I do not know what your acronym means, and I do not wish to find out, since it appearently is there to make me less. I do not care for that.
    The kernel modules that are loaded on my system, and was back when I had working wifi support, are iwlcore and iwlagn. I do not know that the iwlwifi-4965-ucode package is used for anything, I installed it because the before-mentioned wiki page recommends that, and I did get working support. I do not try to configure it by hand, I trust udev/hal/whatever is there to handle the hardware.
    But, sorry for repeating, since some time, I can not connect to an access point. No matter if I try cli commands or use wicd or networkmanager applets. The result appears to be the same, there is no error from iwconfig, which does not succeed.
    I can't even remember the date it went wrong, but i know that the kernel was updated as a part of that particular update. rolling back the kernel did not help though.
