WiFi connection sometimes drops

I live in an apartment complex and species piggyback arrangement with my neighbor.  Only a wall between our apartments.  Wasn't a problem when I had a HP laptop.    Now I have a new desktop HP Pavilion 500-164 and quite often when I run UTorrent my connection drops.  I don't want to buy an Extender.  How can I configure my office to boost my connection?  

BreBruce,

Saw your Post on the Utorrent forum and you have received a response.  Good.

Big_Dave has a good point - many ISPS will be throttle (or otherwise interrupt) connections that fall outside the parameters of the agreement.

If you have not yet seen so, take a look at this:

Internet Access keeps drops when downloading on uTorrent

Among the possible points of interest:

1. right click PIA > settings > advanced > change type of TCP connection

2 Contrict total number of client connections

Click on the thumbs-up Bravo !

It's a nice way of saying 'Thank you' for help.

While I strive to reflect best practices of HP, I do not work for HP.

    My pro iPad connects to the WIFI, but loses connectivity to drops in use.  My other IOS devices (iPhone, macbook, etc.) do not have this problem.  Ideas to solve?

    Hello BrooklynWM!

    I definitely want my iPad to stay connected to the Wi - Fi connection while I use it.  Thanks for posting that other iOS and OS X devices have no problem with the connectivity dropping.  We can try a few things.

    Would first go through the steps listed in this article: If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch connects to a Wi-Fi - Apple Support Network

    Then if it does not help, you can check network settings with this: recommended for the WiFi routers and access - points Apple supported

    After trying those, if you still see the drop connectivity, make sure the iPad Pro is updated with iOS 9.3.2 and check to see if the connection when you are in a certain place, time, or one event happening elsewhere in the House.

    Best regards.

  • 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 L650/1MC - WiFi and LAN connection keep dropping out

    In the last two weeks, that my wifi connection dropped regularly - only a reboot solves the problem. Because it became so frequent (and boring) I returned with an ethernet cable, which worked OK for a few days, but tthat hen started making the same thing: no internet connection.

    I must emphasize that my other active wifi (android and android phone Tablet) kit continue to connect to internet via wifi etc, even when the connection of the laptop has fallen. This leads me to suspect that the problem is mobile partner no router etc. relates. The laptop is rarely used on battery, so I do not have the power as a problem management.

    I have a Satellite L650/1MC running W7 64-bit. I made no changes to my system recently which may give rise to this problem - everything works perfectly until a few weeks before.

    I checked for updated firmware updated on my router in the case where it is the question - it's not.

    Any suggestions to fix this annoying would be welcome!

    > I checked for updated firmware updated on my router in the case where it is the question - it's not.

    Have you tried to reboot the router?
    Since the two connections (LAN and WLan) stops falling, I think that the router is the problem.
    OK, two other android devices seems to work properly but the fact is that router shares automatically and possibly IP addresses, the IP address cannot be assigned correctly.

    However, you can check the WLan and LAN TCP/IP protocol settings.
    Uninstall the TCP/IP v6 and use only the v4 TCP/IP for LAN and WLan.

    Also ensure that your security programs (firewall & anti-virus software) don't affect the internet connection.

  • C720 Chromebook - wifi connection drops

    Overall, I'm happy with this Chromebook after using it for four days. The only problem is that the wifi connection has been doing worse and worse.

    Chromebook keeps dropping wifi signals. To solve the problem, I connected with my laptop side by side with my Chromebook and the laptop has no problem with the same network connection. Chromebook shows the WiFi around 48% when the laptop displays 100%. I disconnected the wifi on my laptop in case there was some kind of interference and I tried with the Chromebook, but which did not help. This problem of Chromebook began a few days after I started using it and seems to be deteriorating.

    Surfing the Web is still possible on the Chromebook because disconnects are sporadic. The main problem is that my VPN disconnects whenever the signal strength decreases. Yet once, my laptop has no problem with the same network, same VPN (and the same VPN server), and in the same place. I have a bad unit?

    So, after many hours of testing... I found a solution.

    In fact, it turn out to be a configuration of router for me.

    I have a Cisco DPC3825 and I had to disable DETECTION FLOOD IP in the Security tab.

    Simple as that.  My router log said the Chromebook sent packets LAN UDP Flood.

    I apologize to ACER Tech Support.

    It might be useful to add a FAQ to this effect.

  • Droid sometimes "forget" to unlock wifi connection

    Today, I noticed that when I unlock my phone (i.e., I press the button on the top after the screen turns off and then slide to unlock), my Droid has lost its wifi connection. This happens even if I didn't go anywhere - all I have to do is wait the screen lock. The connection is restored after a minute or two. Sometimes, only the connection will have disappeared, but it seems to be random. Does anyone else have this problem? Any thoughts?


  • Satellite C55DT-B5128 guard dropping WiFi connection

    Can someone help me I just bought my laptop and have had problems with my wifi connection. I can, but it retains abandon the connection. Anyway to fix this or am I a flawed system?

    Have you tried to reboot your router?
    Have you checked all the WLAN settings?
    Have you tried to test it with a few other WLAN (free hotspot, friend)?

  • No reliable wifi connection to Alpha BB10 BlackBerry 10 native SDK Dev

    I use Ubuntu 12.04 with my shiny new BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha. I have set up the development environment and configured my device (on wifi) connection.

    After activating the Mode developer on the device, I can deploy HelloCascades and my own app, but the "WiFi" in Eclipse is not very reliable.

    I can maintain a ping to the device from my office, is in the same room as the router and any other device do not have WiFi. but every time I want to do something (even if I have only deployed less than a minute ago), I do a right click on "wireless" in the Project Explorer, and then select BlackBerry tools > Connect. Sometimes it will work, but most of the time I get several errors ("connection timed out" is the most common).

    While it is connected, assuming that it doesn't drop, it works fine.

    Does anyone have any ideas?

    Normal managed AP, details of the administration console:

    Operation mode: Access point
    Name (SSID): BLEB.org wifi
    Channel: 7
    Mode: 11bgn mixed
    Width of the channel: 20 / 40 MHz
    Max Tx Rate:

    120Mbps

    Security is WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK (version: auto).

    More stable:

    • Security out shooting (and reboot the router) wants to appear.
    • explicit definition of WPA2 security: it works!  :-)
  • Why is my MacBook Pro cut wifi connection?

    In recent weeks, my wifi connection has often declined, and I have to restart my MacBook Pro to have the wifi connection.

    I have a MacBook Pro 13 inch (end of 2011) and am running OS X El Capitan 10.11.4 version

    I brought my computer to a Genius Bar, and someone had to watch. The guy helped me clean up my caches and adware which helped. It also helped me with existing Wifi preferences of trash again.

    My computer worked fine after my visit to the Genius Bar and now almost a day later my wifi connection dropped again and I had to reboot my computer.

    Any suggestions on what I should do?

    Maybe corrupt network preferences.

    Open the Finder. In the Finder menu bar, click go > go to folder

    Type or copy paste the following text:

    / Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration

    Click OK, and then move all files in the SystemConfiguration folder to the trash.

    Restart your Mac. See if that makes a difference.

    Your Mac will generate a new SystemConfiguration folder for you.

  • WIFI connection constantly fall since we have upgraded to El Capitan. REALLY NOT HAPPY! any suggestions?

  • WiFi connected but browsers and mail stop working

    Here's the situation:

    iMac, 4 years, OS X 10.7.5

    WiFi connected but, browsers and mail stop working sometimes recently.

    Checked the wifi & browser settings.

    Do not remember something like what happens when connected online cat5.

    Curious to know what is happening.

    Say local store card is perhaps go wrong.

    The machine is only 8 ' of router.

    Another pc on the network does not appear to be a problem.

    Any help appreciated.

    You can connect an Ethernet cable to see if it works on Ethernet when you encounter problems easily?

    Try to use your own DNS server.  Because if the DNS server that you use currently is not translate www.company.com name to IP address nn.nn.nn.nn, it will look like you do not have internet access.

    System Preferences-> network-> advanced-> DNS-> [+]

    OpenDNS.org

    208.67.222.222

    208.67.220.220

    Google DNS

    8.8.8.8

    8.8.4.4

    You can remove them later if you want using the [---] button.

    If this does not work, it could mean that your router is having problems.  Most routers act as the local DNS server, make a cache and especially fair bet as a DNS server provided a front for the access provider.  If the router begins to act, it can often be cleared by power cycling the router.

    And once again, if you provide your own DNS server works, then it could be DNS servers of the ISP, but less likely that they would be getting a lot of complaints from their customers (assuming that customers thought it was DNS servers).

    You know, there are 2 sides to any path of communications.

    If it is technically possible for radio Wi - Fi of the iMac to fail, it's actually not very common.

  • Notification and yoga 8 and 10 tablets - KitKat 4.4.2 - Wifi connection

    After the upgrade to KitKat 4.4.2 some customers report that sometimes after the device wakes up from his sleep, the Wifi connection does not have on their shelves of Yoga 8 or 10 (B6000-F/H or B8000-F/H). Also, Notifications may not show the name of the connection.

    Please note that Lenovo has escalated internally on this issue. Personally, I was able to reproduce the Wifi Notification does not display is not the name of the wifi connection.

    These reports came from this thread: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Idea-Android-based-Tablets/KitKat-roll-out-for-Yoga-Tablets-starting-Jun...

    The original thread will be closed during further discussions have been opened by type of programme to assist in the preparation of reports and the resolution. My personal thanks to Forum members who provided feedback to help identify symptoms of post-upgrade.

    Thank you for your patience,

    KitKat OTA V28 is out on January 26. It should solve this problem.

    If you are not currently running this update, you can download it by going to the setting - on tablet PC - upgrade of the system. Your device will then check to see what updates are available. These updates for Yoga Tablet 8 and 10 (B6000 and B8000) begin with "A442_001_028".

    Please note that if you have many updates installed, the unit can only allows you to install two daily and the installation process may take several days to complete.

  • Satellite M60 guard give up WiFi connection

    An M60-144, I provided one of my clients has problems with its WiFi connection. It will be ok for 5 to 10 minutes, and then suddenly will drop the connection. Turning off the WiFi and back on again remakes the connection and everything is very well for 5 or 10 minutes.

    The access point is a Draytek Vigor 2600 G and there are other laptop (Portege R100, R200 Portege and Tecra 9000 Tecra A2) that all connect to the same access point to the same place without any problem. The AP employs 128-bit WEP encryption runs in mode 11b and 11g of mixtures. Any other potential sources of interference, for example the DECT phones have been rejected.

    The laptop has all the updates of Windows applied and drivers the most recent site. For me, it screams of a hardware problem with the wireless card, but wanted to know if there are other suggestions first?

    Hello

    I read a few topics on similar problems and in most cases, the update of the WiFi pilot solves the unstable Wi - Fi connection. As far as I know on the Intel Web site you will also find a newer version of the driver. In my opinion, you should check this option.

  • Keyboard WiFi connect and start over, intermittent stop

    I have a 'Maverick' OS X IMac desktop computer 10.9.5, 2.7 GHz core i5 processor.

    When I want to enter my password to start the computer, my WiFi connected keyboard does not work. I tried everything, change batteries, computer downtime, change keyboard WiFi, etc, sometimes it works again, so it doesn't work anymore, intermittent problem. There is no problem when I connect a USB keyboard. Can anyone help?

    Hello Pierrette45,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple!

    Leave your post, it looks like you have a problem with your wireless keyboard does not. I also understand that you have completed a ton of fun troubleshooting. One thing I would look for in this situation is a potential cause of the interference of the signal as described in the following article.

    our mouse or keyboard intermittently not responding

    Follow these steps if your mouse or your keyboard sometimes stops responding temporarily.

    Click or press a key

    • Click on the mouse or trackpad, or press a key on the keyboard to reconnect the device to the computer. It may take a while for the device to respond.

    Search for interference of signals

    • Wireless networks that operate on 2.4 GHz can cause interference. Move base stations of phone wireless, microwave ovens and other appliances of 2.4 GHz far your Mac if you suspect interference.
    • Keep devices wireless to 10 meters (30 feet) of your Mac.
    • Avoid putting metal objects between your wireless device and your Mac.

    If your Apple wireless mouse, keyboard or trackpad doesn't work as expected - Apple Support

    See you soon!
