Hi I have just bought an iMac. Unpacked, set up, and away I go.
Problem. Every 30 secs or so, the internet connection stops! Only on the iMac. I have an iPhone 4 and iPad 2 and they are both connected to the internet using the same WIFI in my house.
Is there a known problem here your help would be very appreciated.
Thanks.
I have the same issue with my iMac... 😟
I am having the same problem here, on my brand new 27" iMac.
Well... I found something that did work for me... and I have the wifi continously working for more than 48 h now.
(to be done as admin)
1. Turn Off wifi
2. Open terminal
3. Type "sudo open /Library/Keychains/System.Keychains"
4. Search and delete the network passwords
5. Close the window
6. Reboot the iMac
7. Turn on Wifi and put your passwords again for your network
Hope that helps for you too
Cheers
I guess you mean "/System.keychain" (lower case 'k', no 's'), because the file as you describe it does not exist. And as far as I can see, you could do the same by just launching Utilities -> Keychain Access.
Thanks nevertheless!
Absolutely!
Thanks too
Hi thanks. Tried that but the longest it has stayed on now is 1m 48s! I'm totally fed up now!!!
In Keychain Access, I removed all entries with 'Kind' 'Airport', like you advised me to do. Since then I don't lose the Internet connection anymore, everything works like it should. Of course I'm glad the problem is over, but I don't really understand what caused it. Is this a structural problem? Anyway, I'm going to enjoy this beautiful machine now, and forget about the initial difficulties.
Bye!
iMac keeps losing internet connection
