If you have changed it and now forgotten it, you can use the password override feature to set up a new password Unless you've previously changed it, you'll find the default password on your Hub settings card on the back of your Hub.

How to change your wireless channel manually?

#Keep mac osx from connecting to remembered wifi networks 2017 manual#

If you decide to continue with manual selection the Smart Wireless feature will be turned off. This will ensure the BT Home Hub 5 chooses the best channel available and Smart Wireless will continue to automatically monitor the channels to maintain a good connection. We suggest you carry out a wireless channel refresh rather than choose a wireless channel manually. How do I change the wireless channel on my BT Home Hub 5? Apparently some devices don't like dual speeds. I went to the BT site and swap the speed for this device from dual speed to just 5 GHz. Every other network is fine on my MacBook, and every other device on this network is fine as well. This is the only network that my MacBook can't handle, and this is also the only device on the network that does this. So what else can I do? It's very frustrating. I wonder if it's something in the latest version of Yosemite? I have been regularly updating to the latest version of it since the first developer beta came out this summer. I have been using the same router for months now, and I never had a single problem with it. My MacBook still drops wifi every couple of minutes. Swap the router for a different one (exact same kind, I have two of them)Īll this with no luck.I set the permissions of the Keychain items for my network so that every app can access it.Simply turning off/on the wifi on my computer.Deleting the network information as well as related keychain items, repair permissions in Disk Utility, restart, reenter password for network.Upgrading the router to latest firmware, resetting it.These are the things that I found on the internet, and I tried all of them: My MacBook is 13" 2012 base model (MacBookAir5,2), I'm running the latest developer version of OS X Yosemite as of October 14th 2014 (GM 3.0 I believe), and my router is a TP-Link TL-WR741ND. I found several forums on the internet discussing this, but none of them really gave a working solution. When I connect to my network, it remains connected for a few minutes, then it drops the connection. I do not really want to go into WPA2 Enterprise, RADIUS, 802.1X etc as this is just going to make it even more complex for people to understand and irrelevant for Home users as this used when connecting to Business/Enterprise networks.My MacBook Air keeps dropping wifi connection on my home network. Overall with modern Wi-FI hardware using 'n" protocol you need to ONLY use WPA2 with AES encryption to get the best speeds/throughput. However WPA works with most older hardware where as WPA2 will require more modern hardware (6 year old ish) WPA tends to use TKIP and WPA2 uses AES encryption.īoth these methods Apple call WPA Personal or WPA2 Personal.ĪES is preferred as it is more secure and recent exploits of TKIP have led to it being slowly phased out just like WEP which should not be used at all.

PSK dramatically improves protection over WEP, as the encryption keys change very quickly, thus preventing intruders from gathering data to break encryption and into your network. WPA-PSK works by regularly changing the automatic encryption keys authenticated between computers, your server or router and other devices that connect to it. The PSK mode is designed for home or small network use where an 802.1x authentication server isn't required.

WPA-PSK / WPA2-PSK does not require an "authentication server" per se as has suggested. OK lets all take stock and use some logic here and I respectfully disagree with a few of the comments generally being banded about ! And i overall am unhappy about the general forum bashing as well as people may find a hint useful even though "you" have not.
