delete the wifi connections?

My wifi status shows in the menu bar. It shows every WiFi only close to home. Too much. How to show only my preferred connections which is my routers 2.5 ghz and 5 GHz? See the image

Go to all your neighbors and tell them to turn off their WiFi base stations.

Move to a less densely populated area.  Something where your neighbors are 300 + feet should reduce your list very much.

    Why my ipad loses the wifi connection when I abandon my modem wireless of Qwest

    WiFi connections are losing their strength increases the distance between the router and so as a general rule, there are some conflicting objects

    Try the following steps please

    The following actions and after each test to see if the issue is resolved - if yes, then you can omit the following steps - I tried to list them in ascending order of the effort at least on a Mac and / or an iDevice

    1. Check if the problem is related to a single device and if other devices connect normally-
    2. If the answer 1 is 'yes' - try to connect the device assigned to somewhere else if possible - coffee or the University
    3. Perform a forced - restart cela do not delete or purge all data and allows to solve many problems - here is how - press and hold the Off / On Home button and at the same time for about 15-20 seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Allow normal startup upward.
    4. Settings - WiFi - < network name > - Click on forget network - do a restart forced according to 3 and then add again the network
    5. If home - reboot the router by unplugging it for 60 seconds (power) and the plug and reconnect - obviously, this step can be done in a public place like a cafe or airport or University. While you're there - make sure your router is working on the latest firmware (check manufacturer's website)
    6. Settings - general - reset - Reset network settings - remember to have very practical WiFi passwords because it erases the WiFi passwords
    7. If it is a new specific net device in your home - make sure that the router gives enough DNS for all numbers which must / wants a connection - stuff like the printer, Chromecast get overlooked - ask for more details on this so not sure option
    8. Backup the device to iTunes - restore as NEW (no) - see if solves problem - if yes - restore backup
    9. An appointment of 'Genius' to an Apple Store, or select another authorized service provider.
  • I've never seen the cloud on my watch symbolizing the wifi connection.

    I've never seen the cloud on my watch symbolizing the wifi connection. How to operate when phone and shows are on the same network?

    Hi, Kristian

    If your Apple Watch is not connected to your iPhone via Bluetooth, but it is within range of a WiFi (2.4 GHz) network your iPhone plugged in the front (while it was connected to your watch via Bluetooth), then your watch can connect to this network and still offer some features:

    To check the status of the connection of your watch, go to the eye of parameters:

    • When displaying the time on your watch, slide up on the screen, then swipe left / right for the look of parameters.
    • This will specify connected or disconnected:
      • If it says connected and the icon in the upper right corner is a green phone, your watch is connected to your iPhone via Bluetooth.
      • If it says connected, the icon is a green cloud, then your watch is disconnected from your iPhone via Bluetooth, but rather connected (as a backup) to a known Wi - Fi network.
      • If it is disconnected, your watch is disconnected from your iPhone and also is not connected to a Wi - Fi network. The icon in the upper right corner will be a red telephone with a line through it.
    • Slide down again to return to the watch face.

    To test whether your watch is currently able to connect to a Wi - Fi compatible network known as a relief:

    • When within range of the network, turn off Bluetooth on your iPhone.
    • After pausing for a short time, check the status of the connection of your watch as described above.

    Interruption of the WiFi connection.  Green light is the Airport Express.  Settings Network said the cable for the Wi - Fi connection is not connected or the device at the other end does not respond.  Tried to reset Airport Express, but remained light amber or orange flashing.  I unplugged it and waited and plugged back into the light turned green.  Rebooted computer (Mac Pro).

  • ConnectionFactory cannot create the WiFi connection

    I tried this code example, and it returns null ConnectionDescriptor when I only have the wifi connection:

    cf = new ConnectionFactory();
    cf.setPreferredTransportTypes(new int[]{
        TransportInfo.TRANSPORT_TCP_WIFI,
        TransportInfo.TRANSPORT_TCP_CELLULAR,
        TransportInfo.TRANSPORT_WAP,
        TransportInfo.TRANSPORT_WAP2,
        TransportInfo.TRANSPORT_MDS,
        TransportInfo.TRANSPORT_BIS_B
    });
    cf.setAttemptsLimit(2);
    cf.setConnectionTimeout(10000);
    ConnectionDescriptor descr = cf.getConnection("http://www.google.com");
    StringBuffer buff = new StringBuffer();
    if(descr == null){
        buff.append("no descriptor");
    }else{
        buff.append(descr.getTransportDescriptor().getTransportType() + ";" + descr.getUrl());
        try {
        descr.getConnection().close();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("===>conn close error:" + e.getMessage() + ";" + e.getClass().getName());
        }
    }
    

    I tested with the mobile network and it works well and returns the connection descriptor non-zero but when I try with the wifi only and always returns null.

    I tried to access Google.com on the bb browser and it opens.

    However, the connection is slow and it loads for a while before opening google. Is this the reason why I get null handle or its something else?

    Well I solved it.

    It turned out that I had activated the VPN profile to the wifi network. When I disable the code works ok.

    But this raises the question why can't make a connection http via wifi with active VPN profile. I can always open google.com in the browser.

    I'll make a new thread for this question.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones BB Curve 9300 - how to prioritize between the Wifi connection and the carrier?

    Hi all, I have a question... How do we place on our BB unit to plug into a wireless network from first (if available) to browse and not them connected to the internet all the stuff instead of using our carrier, then at home or at work?

    There are no parameters for this on most devices, the WiFi connection will ALWAYS be priority for communication of data via the connection to the mobile network.

    Some rare machines with capacities AMU have an Option to set this priority. UMA is a service of only a few mobile providers like Tmobile.

  • How to erase history without deleting the active connections?

    I never used to have this problem and I have updated Firefox repeatedly but continue to have the problem. Whenever I have clear history (everything EXCEPT the active connections), get it out of my active connections. I clear the cache and cookies quite often because of my older laptop computer and constant streaming on Netflix, Hulu and TWC. Is there a way I can fix this problem?

    A detail as a website to remember you (automatically log you) is stored in a cookie.

    You can use these steps to make a Web site recognize and remember you:

    • Create a cookie 'allow' except to keep these cookies, in particular in the case of secure websites and when the cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
    • Tools > Options > privacy > "Use the custom settings for history" > Cookies: Exceptions

    Make sure that you are not Firefox running in permanent private browsing mode (do not remember the story; Always use the private browsing mode).

    If the deletion of cookies did not help, then it is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies has been corrupted.

    • Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and if present remove cookies.sqlite - shm and cookies.sqlite - wal in the Firefox profile folder in the cookies.sqlite case has been corrupted.

    You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:

    Can someone throw some light/provide any assistance! I'm getting desperate :(

    Thanks - my email is [email protected]

    Hey nic,.

    You must give us more details about your problem. Your explanation is very deep and so it might be a little hard to give exactly the instructions how to resolve you this problem.

    First you make sure if your wireless network card is listed in the device correctly without yellow exclamation point Manager.
    Then, make sure that the WIFI is enabled with the hardware switch and FN + F8.

    You see the WLAN router if you are looking for WIFI networks at your fingertips? If so, can you connect or you get an IP address?
    Also check the DHCP of your laptop configuration and disable the Save function in the energy WLAN Vista power management.

  • Skype 6.16.60.105 drops after that call is place/received the WiFi connection

    Hello

    After the upgrade to the latest version ov Skype (6.16.60.105) - I can't not place/receive calls.

    When I call someone (call or video call) or when anobody calls me - Skype drops my WiFi connection.

    It was working fine before the update.

    On the same wifi network, another laptop with Skype 6.14 works very well.

    Regression problem?

    Any solution?

    Thank you

    Oleg.

    Downgrade from 6.16.0.105 solved the problem. I've done various tests and it works very well.

    So, it should be regression introduced along the road between 6.16.0.105 and 6.16.60.105.

    I wonder if Skype developers know.

  • Satellite M50 161 - how to set up the WIFI connection?

    I use my Satellite as a second computer. My PC is primary and is using a NETGEAR card.

    I used a card reminder in wireless cards because my home office is a bit far from the PC.

    Of course, my laptop has its own part of the ways to get online.

    I've always taken for granted connection. I don't even remember the 1st time I am connected. In fact an engineer could have done to the delivery!

    PC had problems connecting. Host Web server problems. I was expecting sort of my laptop to connect in any case, as it could / should connect to it's own wireless installation to get online. I'm not an expert as you realize.

    It dawned on me while I had no idea how to switch on and connect using the built-in wireless card that not Netgear obviously. Or I'm expecting a lot and the lap top is actually a slave to my PC connection and always will home in on the netgear connection.

    BTW, I'm back online via the netgear but would like to know. Excuse my ignorance...

    Hello

    To be honest I m a bit confused.
    I put t know exactly what you want to do.

    You want to connect the laptop to the other PC via WiFi or connect the Satellite M50 to the WLan router as usual?

    If you want to connect to the Wlan router and then activate the wireless card on the laptop with the WLan switch on the side of the laptop and the FN + F9 key combination.
    Then configure settings such as the SSID, encryption, Mac address, etc. by using windows has the configuration settings or 3rd party software like utility Intel ProSet or Atheros client utility (depending on the Wlan card).

    For more details you can visit the Toshiba Wlan Portal
