I keep losing wifi on apple tv 3 after last update 6.1.1

Other devices may work fine but that doesn't rule out a network issue.

Connecting via ethernet will help verify wifi issues.

Going to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC) will give a proper report of the network, look for signal strength and noise.

How did you verify that? If you simply did the test on a device then that is not accurate. These are network issues, please do as suggested above.

Nope, you are not alone 😟

Who is making assumptions here? Our networks are just fine, we all told you so, it always was, strong as ever. But you only believe us when we send you data from iStumbler? Realy? That software stopped being updated from octobre 2013 (http://www.istumbler.net), Besides that, what info do you want us to give you from that?

This being a user only forum realy dissapoints me, because no real inside info or solution will get into this. Kinda useless this way. Like I said, I'm not new to this...

Saying a network is fine with nothing to back that up is preciesly what makes it an assumption.

If you did get a report but have no intention of giving information, then how do you expect to get help from anyone. You want a solution but don't want to give any details. If you notice, you have said nothing about your situation other then a claim that your signal is fine.

The data can be from anywhere, as already stated. It will look at the full network for proper indication of signal strength, noise, nearby networks.

There is always a select group who post after an update. Upon proper troubleshooting, vulnerabilities within the network are isolated and addressed. There is no such wide-spread issue as a result of an update problem.

This forum has users with real-world experience available to help other users (which it states when you sign up). But that is not what you're looking for because it doesn't agree with your theory. You are free to call Apple support if you are so intent of talking with them, but they will want to troubleshoot your network as well.

This is a network streaming device, not a Mac. The first Apple TV came out in 2007, which I did use. The streaming only version was introduced in 2010.

I'm with Yorick B!!! Admittedly I am "challenged" when it comes to electronics. At one time I really enjoyed Pandora but I lose the connection repeatedly and frequently now. I play it off an iPad.

The iPad will indicate it is either not playing or has switched to the iPad from Apple TV. When I turn it back on and switch it back to ATV it still sometimes won't play.

I need help before I break something!!!

Looking for an answer Andrew?

Besides that iStumbler doesn't output data like you want it, unless it does and you tell people how...

Is your Apple TV connected via wifi? If so, try using ethernet.

I'm wifi. As of now it shows to be playing and on ATV but no music.

So it's now connected properly, but there's no audio? Is this just occuring with Pandora or with other content too?

Actually Pandora is all I ever listen to.

Ok. Try playing something natively on the Apple TV, see if audio is ok. Also try ethernet and reboot ATV/router.
