Apple TV gives up on WiFi association after awhile

Hello

I have the following scenario:

-Apple TV model A1469, Version 7.2.1 (8011)

-' Not always on' Wireless Network (ex, WiFi is turned off during certain periods)

When I start the WiFi network and then Apple TV, it works very well, he associated with the network, no problem.

Then I unplug the network WiFi, but Apple TV on. Apple TV unplug obviously WiFi.

But after some time (it varies between 30 minutes to 6 hours, usually) when I turn the WiFi on once again, Apple TV connects to the WiFi network again. It is as if he has forgotten the network entirely and stays like that forever.

I can recover by power off / turn on the Apple TV or by going to network settings and join the network again. A curious fact: Apple TV don't ask the password this time, then it means that the password is known.

I have excluded from interference WiFi, electronic material nearby, the noise of the power supply, etc. So I need to figure out what to do next, because the Apple TV must be in conference of all time mode and the WiFi network must be down when not in use.

It is a system completely unnatended, conference room users are not allowed to mess with power Apple TV and use the remote control either.

Apple TV should always try to reconnect... why he gave up after a while?

Thank you.

You say that 'disconnect you the WiFi', but I think you mean that you stop at the router. ATV continuous attempts to connect, but gives up after a while. Having given up, it will not try again unless you interact with him, somehow. I suspect that it was designed for it. It is not surprising that he remembers the network key, because I think it behaves like an iPad or iPhone, saving the SSID and key networks, we saw previously.

You can try to complain to Apple to http://www.apple.com/feedback/appletv.html , but I suspect that this requirement did not appear in the design. After all, ATV was really designed for home use, as attested by the apps 'watch television '. Schools and businesses find them useful, but is not the focus of the primary product.

Why is it necessary to turn off the WiFi?

You can use a wired connection for ATV? Assuming that your router supports wireless clients could still AirPlay on ATV.

I was going to suggest that you turn the room Conference on ATV mode, but it looks like you have to do so already.

It is a bit brutal, but could put you it off ATV (pull on the plug) before turning off WiFi? In this way, ATV never know that WiFi disappears.

In addition, there are other reports of ATV apparently giving up network connections while you sleep, even when WiFi is available. These users will have to do the same thing you get ATV to pay attention to the network again. The funny thing is that this does not affect everyone. There may be an independent ATV adjustment that triggers this behavior. So you might expect a software fix or one of these other threads fly finally a solution. Just search here WiFi and sleep.

  • Anyone with the problem of not show apple tv on the same wifi to connect the new application remote control (with the last operating system both on device)?

  • Recovery WIFI connection after sleep mode activation takes much too long

    This question of provenance in this thread: http://answers.microsoft.com/thread/b7916ba7-3e34-4ee2-a6e7-bba2fa65508b (title: "HELP!") Driver issue Microsoft Virtual Wifi Miniport Adapter (error code 31)").

    Basically, the presented solution it works for me too. However, the command "netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode = ban" does not get persistent, thereby affecting

    "stop wlan netsh hostednetwork" gets persisted, however.

    'do not command netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode = allow' does not get persistent...

    In other words, current enforcement in exactly ONE time orders-Admin-helps prompt - as soon as I wake my machine to sleep after running it, the WIFI connection gets restored quickly (less than 5 seconds); but when I check the status with "netsh wlan show hostednetwork", then the result is that the mode is set to "Authorized" again - and that means, the next time that I wake up the machine, it takes ages to new (~ 30-50 seconds) before connections WLAN gets implemented...

    Does anyone know how I can get the mode = do not allow to persist?

    Another fact interesting, that I found before I was running on the solution by using the NETSH commands:

    If I change the ' password on the reactivation of the "option of energy saving"require a password (recommended)"to"Don't require a password", it's okay, about the period of time it takes to establish the WIFI connection after wakeup (in other words, even without the NETSH commands described in this thread).

    So, from my point of view, it seems to be that something related to security (probably in association with this kind of things hosted network).

    The problem: disabling of "Protection of password on wakeup" is not a solution to everything, for me personally, as I am quite often on the road with my laptop, and I want to be sure that the data on my laptop is not accessible without unlocking the screen, in the case where the unit would get stolen or I loose it somehow... to protect all customer and other data sensitive data to this topic...

    Any professional entry of someone at Microsoft to finally have a solution for this would be greatly appreciated.

    Apple Watch does not currently offer them alerts audible or haptic if it is taken out of the reach of the paired iPhone Bluetooth.

    Hello

    In the past, you need to turn on the WiFi using the FN keys, but I think that this should not be necessary to help to win 10.

    In any case, I think that you must connect to the laptop to the internet using LAN cable.
    Then, you must uninstall the WLan Device Manager driver.
    After that, restart the laptop in order to win 10 to select the Wlan driver automatically.

    As far as I know that Win 10 must check for new drivers available WLan and in the best of cases after the update, the WiFi connection should work again.

  • WiFi problem after upgrade to Windows 10

    Greetings!

    I read a few posts on WiFi problems after the (improper) upgrade of Windows 10. I have a ThnkPad T530 which I've upgraded to Windows 10 Windows 7 in September (too late to roll back). Here's my question:

    I have three computers on my desk. This standard T530 running Windows 10, a ThnkPad E555 running Windows 7 and a Dell running Windows 8. I used all three last Friday. I installed Norton on all three Friday and everything went without a hitch. When I first started their return to the top of this morning, the two others came online as usual. The ThinkPad T530 connected by a router in the company, but has no access to the internet. I can connect to the hotspot on my phone and it connects fine. I tried to turn the WiFi connection and then turn it on again, restart, by killing and restarting the business connection, etc. Nothing changes.

    Help, please

  • After awhile, the aero theme runs with a lot of delay and low fps

    I noticed this problem for some time now. My Office is many running themes aero after awhile. Normally, it feels like running on a smooth surface, 50 to 60 images per second. But after a few minutes, all of a sudden its down to 10 or 15 fps , which is almost unusable.

    Workaround so far is to disable aero theme by switching on the Windows basic theme and then back to Aero. But within 5 minutes, its back to the drawing board. Because the whole "of the drawing Office" fps is reduced, using programs such as Firefox or Premiere Pro, Photoshop or even a video player is a pain. However when I run a video game Crysis etc, the fps is fine and the game takes place as it should. Anyone with the same problem? Any solution?

  • iPhone & iPad with the same Apple ID, Wifi Dead after # 21 #, cannot call the specific number

    Hi guys, I really hope someone can help out me with this one. Long story short:

    After a week of vacation when we left our iPhone and iPad at home, my girlfriend's iPhone did get any cell phone signal when we came back, said network unavailable in the upper left corner, then we called Fido, the cell phone company, we use to try to resolve the problem. After trying to isolate the problem by changing my SIM card in the phone and SIM card in my phone, we saw that it was related to his SIM card.

    The key to reset cell phone network, has changed twice between the SIM card and after a good 24 hours, his phone was on the right track with the exception that it was not able to call me and only me. We get an error call failed. But she was able to receive calls from me and everyone else. Also, we were unable to set up the voicemail.

    As if the phone thought she was my line because of some flying over the passage of my SIM card in the phone...

    This is the first problem... That we called Fido again. After the usual troubleshooting stuff (reset the network settings, restore the device in iTunes, force the restart, eject and put in the SIM card) the Lady on the line calling in the phone app, the number "# 21 #". Then BAM! no more WiFi on his phone AND his iPad connected to the same Apple ID (not a network problem as all the other device not associated with this specific apple id are ok with this network and wifi iPad literally fall from the moment I hit that famous number) when I press on my wifi network in the list It behaves as it accepts the password, but all is not connect with the wheel spinning without end.

    Thus, employees of die cell phone are clueless and now she can't call me and she can't go on the internet with none of its aircraft. I tried a full restoration of his phone.

    Tomorrow I will try the iPad on my place of work to see if it can connect to the anther wifi network, pending:

    1-don't, anyone know what this # 21 # code is and how I can repair the damage he has done?

    2-is my SIM card remains on his good theory and if so, what can we do about it, if not then what could cause his phone to have a call to a number failed error in particular?

    Thanks in advance!

    Not sure about the theory of SIM card, but my guess is not... don't dwell settings. The SIM card must be "read" on every power up.

    The code in what she you punch is a mobile PHONE for call forwarding. She must have felt you have enabled I guess. It shouldn't be anything else stop call forwarding for his phone, if it was enabled.

  • Problem getting my WiFi connection after the mode 'sleep'

    After my computer wakes from sleep mode, I click on my WiFi network every time to get on the internet.  If I restart my computer, it detects my WiFi network and connects ok.  It's just at the time when it wakes from sleep.  I tried many solutions that people have posted for example to remove some files from my SystemConfig., but have had no luck.

    Hi joycefromil,

    I understand that your Mac has problems automatically re-login to a Wi - Fi saved after wake up from its sleep. I can understand the concern here; It seems that it would be a bit tedious to have to re - connect manually whenever you wake your Mac from sleep. I'm happy to help you with this problem.

    As a first step, try to remove your Wi - Fi network in the preferred networks list and then add again using the steps here:

    macOS Sierra: choose the preferred Wi - Fi networks

    Try to test for the problem to see if it persists. If so, I recommend that you try to start your Mac in safe mode and test for the issue. Once you're done test in safe mode, restart your machine normally and try test again to see if the problem has been resolved.

    If the problem persists in safe mode, try to create a test on your Mac user account to see if the problem is here. This will help to further isolate the issue. Take a look at this Web site for more information:

  • WiFi, stall after iOS 10

    MY wifi is randomly after cutting 10 upgraded ios.  Anyone elese?

    Here's a tip for the user on the problems of Wi - Fi. Suggest from the top and bottom.

    (1) restart you device. If a normal restart does not help, hold down these keys at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears: a) the sleep/wake button and the low Volume button (7 iPhone iPhone 7 and more) or b) the sleep/wake button and the Home button (all other models)

    (2) resetting the network settings: settings > general > reset > reset network settings. Join the network again.

    (3) reboot router/Modem: unplug power for 2 minutes and reconnect. Update the Firmware on the router (support Web site of the manufacturer for a new FW check). Also try different bands (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) and different bandwidths (recommended for 2.4 to 20 MHz bandwidth). Channels 1, 6 or 11 are recommended for 2.4 band.

    (4) change of Google DNS: settings > Wi - Fi > click the network, delete all the numbers under DNS and enter 8.8.8.8 or otherwise 8.8.4.4

    (5) disable the prioritization of device on the router if this feature is available. Also turn off all apps to VPN and retest the Wi - Fi.

    (6) determine if other wireless network devices work well (other iOS devices, Mac, PC).

    (7) try the device on another network, i.e., neighbors, the public coffee house, etc.

    (8) backup and restore the device using iTunes. Try to restore as New first and test it. If ok try to restore the backup (the backup may be corrupted).

    https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT201252

    (9) go to the Apple store for the evaluation of the material. The Wi - Fi chip or the antenna could be faulty.
