• Remove preferred networks

  OK, this has been discussed many times and many moons ago but I still don't see anywhere a proper fix. I hope you guys can help :-)

  If you have a bunch of 'old' networks in your list of wifi on your devices. For me iMac, Macbook Air and iPhone 6 (don't see the list on the phone)

  How the hell do you want to remove what you don't want. I know that its something to do with the keychain. Remove them from the list on the iMac and Macbook, and then apply it works for about 5 minutes and then they all again...

  This is certainly something simple... This my Apple... this question seems to have been invited a few times now, but not with a solid answer... Help Please guys/girls...

  His frustration.

  Thank you very much

  Mac.

  The preferred networks has nothing to do with the keychain.

  The list is in the system under WiFi network, advanced Prefs.

  If they keep reappearing, try to remove one of the other Mac.

  If they are all signed on the same iCloud account, the networks are sync'd between them.

• How to stop Satellite L40 - 14N connect to non-preferred networks?

  I'll put up a Satellite L40 - 14N notebook and only want it to be able to connect to a designated wireless LAN router. The network adapter is a Realtek RTL8187B and the laptop runs Windows Vista Edition home premium (v6.0.6000). The machine is currently working on a WLAN with WPA pre-shared key.

  I have read a number of Web pages such as:

  http://ask-Leo.com/how_can_i_block_neighboring_wireless_networks.html

  At halfway on this page, it displays the setting "Automatically connect to non preferred networks" in one of the boxes of properties. In the property fields I see on this machine the I can't find this setting and I don't have a list of options to change the priority of connection or preferred networks.

  Does anyone know if the automatic connection to other networks can be disabled on this computer and if so... How?

  I need the machine for details of a unique WLAN connection and if the network is not present then do not access anything else.

  I noticed the "Connect to a more preferred network if available" parameter in one of the other properties boxes, is this similar?

  Any help much appreciated! :-)

  Hello

  "As explained on the website of the 3rd party you should uncheck the option to automatically connect to the non preferred networks.
  You must mark the neighbours WLan and press the properties button.
  Then a new window should open and on the Connections tab, you should * uncheck * the option called + Connect then this network is in range.

• Preferred network type

  What should be the preferred network type? 4G or 3G?

  Is a specific connection that is required for 4G?

  Hi Satyajit,

  If you want to use the 4G data, you can set the type of preferred as a 4G network but you should have a 4 G Sim activated to use the 4G data connection. Contact your network provider for the 4G Sim Card.

  Thank you

• Add a preferred wireless network

  I want to configure the wireless preferred networks on a pool of 25 computers at once while no users of the console/GUI/admin is entered, that is to say the computers are provisioned waiting on the registration screen. All computers are properly configured for access "remote management".

  I'm looking for something in Apple Remote Desktop to add some favorite wireless networks with the terminal command "networksetup" to these remote computers

  I got the terminal command:

  sudo networksetup - addpreferredwirelessnetworkatindex en0 ssid 0 wpa2 password

  Any help?

  Hi basil,

  -Something that should work can use the ARD from the Mac Admin officer, to run ssh sessions by officials of the ARD on clients, and then run the Terminal command.

  -J' used a script like this before restart locked ARD Agents on clients via ssh.  No GUI sessions running on the clients.

  The script Unix in ARD would be similar to:

  for N in 'client1.local' 'client2.local' 'clientn.local '.

  do

  {

  SSH '$N' 'sudo networksetup - addpreferredwirelessnetworkatindex en0 ssid 0 wpa2 password.

  }

  fact

  -The script is run using an adminuser which is available on each client with ssh keys setup (no password) and an entry in/etc/sudoers so the sudo command prompts nor a password.

  -L'adminuser can be activated for this task in a separate script:

  Disable: chsh s operation adminuser

  Administer enable: chsh-s/bin/bash

  hope this helps, dwbrecovery

• MacMini don't auto connect to the preferred wireless network when the router reboots

  My MacMini is located to join my favorite wifi network. Where I stay, there is usually a power failure close to a minute or two during the day.

  My setup is such that my MacMini running 24 x 7 with a backup uninterruptible but my router (AirPort Express) turns off during the power outage. When the router goes off, my Mac disconnects from the network which should, but now when my router turns, the MacMini reconnect to the preferred network.

  It shows the network preferred list, and when I manually click on this subject, it reconnects immediately without asking for password. But this will not happen automatically.

  If I restart my MacMini it reconnects very well. The problem occurs only when my MacMini is but my router restarts.

  To reproduce this problem on your side, just turn off your router and once your Mac disconnects from the network back on the router. See if your mac reconnects to your wifi fine.

  Any solution or advice for this problem?

  Thank you.

  Please test after taking each of the steps that you have not already tried it. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.

  1. If possible, test at another network, such as a public access point or hotspot created by a mobile phone. Some Wi - Fi routers are not fully compatible with Apple devices. More specifically, the security mode for the network, as shown in the network preferences window, should be 2 personal WPA or WPA 2 Enterprise. If the router doesn't support either of these modes, it should be replaced with another.

  2. make sure that the network is on the list of favorites by following these instructions. It is important to read the article, as it is the starting point for further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any step, the problem cannot be resolved. Make sure that the box marked

  Remember this computer has joined the network

  is checked.

  3 follow the instructions in this article to support.

  4. reset the PRAM.

  5. take note of all your parameters of connection Wi - Fi in the network preferences pane, then remove the connection in the connection list and re-create it with the same settings. This by clicking on the icon of the lowest sign from the list of connection, select Wi - Fi as the interface in the form that opens. Select join the other network in the network name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when you are prompted, and then save it in the keychain.

  6. in the menu location at the top of the network preferences window, select Edit locations. A sheet will fall. Click on the plus sign to create a new location. Give it the name of your choice. In the new location, set up the Wi - Fi service with the same settings that you used before. Click on apply and test.

  7. run the Keychain Access application. Find and remove all the network password AirPort elements that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.

  8 turn off the Bluetoothand the test.

  9. reset the system management controller.

  10. This step should not be necessary, but he has been advised by the Apple Support in some cases, apparently as a solution for a bug. Open the energy saving pane in system preferences. If necessary, click the lock icon in the lower left corner to unlock the settings. When prompted, enter your administrator login password.

  Select the Power Adapter tab and uncheck the boxes marked

  Continued access to the Wi - Fi network

  and

  Enable the NAP...

  If it is present. Then, if the computer is a MacBook, select the stack tab and uncheck the box

  Enable the NAP...

  11. reinstall OS X.

• Network with the MacBook Pro 15 "problems

  My new MacBook Pro (15-inch, mid-2015 retina) has 16 GB memory MHz DDR3.

  2.8 GHz Intel Core I & and an AMD Radeon R9 M370x PCie, in addition to an integrated

  Chipset Intel Iros Pro model. I am running OS X El Carolina Version 10.11.6, with 12 Parallels and Windows 7 for a few

  the company's programs, but I mainly work on the Mac side.

  An intermittent connection problem became constant after a week of using the computer.  My router DLink DSL (model 2750B) is two feet away from the computer.  In the system preferences / iCloud, I get "There was an error connecting to server Apple ID" my MacPro, iPad Samsung Galaxy S7 and Air 2 all connect with the same router wireless without any problem. (All my OTHER computers connected also with the same Apple ID and password without problem.  IMac 2012, MacPro, 2012 MacBook Pro, iPad 2 and the new iPad 2 Air)) I have a screenshot of the error message "None of your preferred networks are available" and in the same time to a list of all available networks, including my own.  Several times, I click on my network and get the response "the xxxxxxnetwork could not be contacted."

  I solved problem with Verizon, my provider, yesterday, and the routine test found that I have an intense tone, but the computer could not complete the test routine.  I ran "Diagnoses" several times this evening - this is after 23:00, and the report suggests that I will review wi - if recommended (fact), that I have a crowded WiFi channel (almost anyone else is in the building at this late hour) and I have to reboot the router (I did several times) and that maybe I should join a Wi - Fi network network that is associated with the Internet (like mine that works for all other devices.)

  Any suggestions on how to solve problems, or I would return the computer.  It's beautiful, and I spent a lot of time updating, installation, customization, before this stop of a Wi - Fi.  I had to buy a new router, but tests with Verizon made me doubt that a new router would solve this problem.

  Thanks for all the wisdom and strategies.  Maggie2012

  Hello maggie2012,

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  I understand your message that you are not able to connect your new MacBook Pro to your home Wi - Fi network. You did some great troubleshooting so far! I also recommend you to test the issue in Safe Mode and in an another user account on your Mac. The following articles will provide you with the steps necessary to test the problem in Mode safe and in another user account:

• Sudden home networking issues

  Product name: Macbook Pro 13 inch Retina early 2015.

  OS (when the problem started): Yosemite 10.10.5

  OS (now): El Capitan 10.11.5

  The problem

  So yesterday my Mac Wifi connection dropped suddenly. So, I moved to lightning Ethernet connection which has varied between does not and VERY slow, almost unusable. I work from home online, so the last 2 days I was not able to do anything.

  I can connect to Wifi, Mac said Internet: accessible. I can ping. But can not browse and other tools such as Google Drive and Dropbox are unable to connect.

  So far, this would indicate a problem with my network or my router, rather than my right to the machine? However, my Android phone works fine with Wifi.

  Things I've tried:

  I've been on Yosemite 10.10.5. I followed all the troubleshooting steps basis and the following:

  • Reset my SMC.
  • Reset my PRAM.
  • I turned off the Bluetooth.
  • I deleted the files in Network preferences to reset a reboot.
  • I "forgot" my home network to reset it like that.
  • Running reports "wireless diagnosis" everything is "as planned."
  • Attach to the Wireless on my Android Nexus 5 X hotspot. Connects to the Wifi but not Internet after 10 seconds. Sometimes not at all.

  Then, I took a backup and upgrade to El Capitan. The strange thing is, about an hour after the upgrade, my ethernet cable was working fine again! About 14:00 yesterday at 09:00 today when I turned on it to start working.

  NOTE: I connect to the network fine, and Google Drive and Dropbox plugins start synchronization. Full report 'sync', then, after about 10 seconds, they say "unable to connect". Holding "option/alt" and clicking on the Wifi symbol in the toolbar says "Internet: accessible. Indeed, I can 'ping' very well. There is no loss of data packets. So could it be a software on my machine which has suddenly become crazy and prevents connections other than the pings? I have run Avast Anti-virus, but which has worked for months and is running as I type this. Similar posts often get answers their questions about firewalls and proxies that might cause the problem. I only have Avast.

  Affirmations:

  If it was a problem with my router, my phone would not have a problem too?

  If it's a problem with my Mac, why would Internet suddenly started working again after a while?

  I write this in a coffee shop, using their Wifi and it works fine. I don't have whatever it is off on my machine. Yet once, which suggests a problem with my network rather than the phone.

  Is this something that could be fixed to an Apple Store? As I suspected, it works very well to the coffee then probably it would work fine in the Apple store and they don't know what to do.

  I thought only try you geniuses first!

  Thanks in advance.

  It is very difficult to debug an Internet without Internet problem.

  First of all uninstall AVAST from the system. then open system preferences > network > enter your network > what is place please do as automatic. What, the other DNS settings, preferred networks etc please post.

• Networks WiFi my phone was Show up in the list of MacBook

  I just noticed this today. To anticipate a question, iCloud Keychain I turned on my MacBook Pro, but not on my iPhone.

  What I see is that, on the (current execution 10.11.5) MacBook Pro in system-> network-> wireless-> Advanced preferences, there are networks listed there that the MacBook was never on (or even close) but my iPhone has served. More, if not all of these networks are not password protected, so I don't know if the keychain is involved - in any case, I don't see any networks appears when I look at the app Keychain Access on the MacBook.

  The question is: is this expected behavior?  Managed in iCloud somewhere?  If so, could someone point me to some documents so I can control the behavior?

  Thanks in advance!

  The question is: is this expected behavior?

  Yes.

  Managed in iCloud somewhere?

  Yes.

  If so, could someone point me to some documents so I can control the behavior?

  There is a large amount; a few follow below. I don't know what behavior you want to order. If you ask why Apple believes that it is advantageous for favorite networks sync on all your devices, including desktop Mac that are not likely to be moved often (or at all) I do not have the answer.

  If you don't want a Mac desktop (or any other for that matter) to join in specific networks, so you can deselect specific "preferred networks" in system preferences > network > advanced. Deselect the option "Remember networks this computer has joined" and / or select "ask to join new networks."

• a WiFi list contains all the networks of all the devices I own desktop

  I noticed in my network prefs the "preferred networks: ' list contains literally networks of a hundred who"joined "this" computer ".

  I don't know how that's possible, that it's a 39.9 book without 3 additional discs computer and the monitor, I would need to carry with him.

  so why "this" shows the networks of my my phone, my significant other phone, iPads etc. family members when 'this' computer clearly did not move in about 99% of these networks.

  If you want to spy on someone, it's some potentially evil $#! +.

  

  I can't say 100% for sure, but I think the quote below from the frequently asked questions on iCloud Keychain - Apple Support can offer an explanation:

  Keychain iCloud keeps your Safari Web site names of user and passwords, credit card information and Wi - Fi network up-to-date information on all of your approved devices that use iOS 7.0.3 or later or OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later version.

• WiFi network connection.

  Is there a way to get my Mac book to choose a particular wifi network when it is switched on? He always trys to connect to a public network paying (BT wifi with fon) rather than mine.

  I have a Macbook Pro with the Version of El Capitan 10.11.4

  In Network System Preferences select your preferred network and delete the public one in the list of networks.
