My Apple TV loses communication to my laptop. I need to turn off my wifi connection on my 2018 MacBook Air then back on to reestablish communicate to my Apple TV.
I enabled wifi logging and created a diagnostic report.
Can anyone tell me why I lose communication?
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.0
That indicates a weak network. I'm not talking about the speed of the network, I'm referring to the bandwidth. Is your network a Mesh network, if not you may want to consider researching them to see if you are good candidate. Before you do though please do the following;
I bought a Synology RT2600ac since I could add an external hard drive to serve as a time machine backup. Setting up internet access was easy. Adding external storage was not easy...but after a few hours figured out how to do it. Sad it must be formatted FAT32 to work. But, fine for Time Machine. Now everything working great. Thanks again.
Yes, a Time Capsule is pretty ancient technology by todays standards especially if you have been adding more wireless devices into your home.
I have had good luck so far with my Google Mesh but there are many to select from.
Thanks. I'll start looking at Mesh routers. Any recommendations?
I've spent a lot of time resetting devices and finally determined that I only needed to turn off and back on wifi on my laptop.
I'm using the last generation Apple Airport Time Capsule as my router with no extenders. Are you suggesting I need to replace it?
My wifi connection drops out
