Anyway to connect to wireless network

Hi
Is there anyway in which i can connect my G4 Powerbook running 10.2.8 to my wireless network, my current network is using WPA encryption which i know is the problem. Is there any software solution? I do have a copy of Panther winging its way to me that i know is compatible, but its going to take a week or so and i really need to get connected.
Cheers
Karl

Karl,
Is there anyway in which i can connect my G4 Powerbook running 10.2.8 to my wireless network, my current network is using WPA encryption which i know is the problem.
No, not with the AirPort (Extreme) card. As you know, at least Mac OS X 10.3 is needed in this case. You could connect an appropriate wireless Ethernet bridge (also known as a gaming adapter) with WPA support to the Ethernet port of the computer. Alternatively, you could try a wired Ethernet connection to the base station (router).
Is there any software solution?
No, probably not. The only way would be to temporarily set the base station to WEP security (normally, not recommended).

  • Two Issues: Cannot connect to wireless networks; Cannot load certain sites

    Hey everybody,
    I have a MacBook Pro 15".
    In just the past week, I've stumbled upon two sudden problems with my network/internet connectivity.
    First, I can no longer connect to wireless networks, be it an infrastructure point or computer-to-computer ad-hoc networks. I'm not really sure why. I installed the latest AirPort Update (4.2.3, according to System Profiler). I also recently installed both iStumbler and KisMac v.21. When I started having issues, I thought that maybe one of these two programs might be the culprit, so I uninstalled both of them but I still have the same problem.
    Second, I've had issues with not being able to connect to certain websites. I use both Safari and BonEcho as my browsers. The specific sites seem random:
    www.weffriddles.com
    www.macrumors.com
    images.google.com
    sports.yahoo.com
    finance.yahoo.com
    to list a few.
    If you need any diagnostic information, please let me know.
    Thanks in advance for any advice/help you can provide!

    If you are trying to connect to a third-party router using WPA or WEP, there is a good chance that your Airport card was broken by Apple's 2007-02 Airport Update. There is no fix, and for many of us, our Macbooks and Macbook Pros are useless for wireless connections until Apple fixes the issue. At this point, Apple seems to be denying that there even is an issue, so we may all be in for a long wait indeed.

  • Hp C4580 printer won't connect to wireless network, but see network is available.

    I've sat through quite a few of the threads here with regard to photsmart C4580 printer not connecting to wireless network.
    My issues started with a cartridge issue, which I resolved with a new cartridge, but only after trying out different solution offered on HP forum.
    Now printer won't connect to my network which it has been connected to for over 2 years with no issues. The wireless network is working perfectly fine and I even printed out a HP photosmart C4500 series connectivity status and in this report printer can see the network I need to connect to.
    I've tried downloading various programs from Scan doctor to complete install of all HP programs and even tried installing printer from Windows 7 "add a printer", but none can see this printer.
    lastly I was hoping trying to locate IP address for printer which looks like it may help, but report says IP Address "not applicable".
    I believe printer, wireless network and PC are working correctly, this there a way to switch printer to online so it can be seen.
    Help would be great.

    Then after a reboot, I wouldn't be able to connect to wireless network anymore.
    I tried "netcfg Wireless_Archer(my wireless profile's name)" as usual, it replied:

    I tried the "iwconfig wlan0 channel auto", but that didn't work. Here's the output of "lspci | grep -i net":

    03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation WiFi Link 1000 Series
    So what's the problem here? I searched the forum and google, and it seemed that I connected to a wrong router(for sometimes I only one "carrier lost" then "timed out"), but how was that happened? Things worked quite well before the upgrading as well as in my Windows environment.
    Any reply would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!

    Thanks Proofrific, but I believe it's not, for the DHCP server is a built-in module in my wireless router.
    I am now able to connect to my wireless network now. And it seems to be a little kernel bug as I discovered a thread(sorry but I forgot which one) in the forum discussing a similar problem.... Somebody in that post suggested a work-around to change the channel, as their default setting is channel 13 or 12.
    I tried and it did work! Just simply open your router's setting page and then change the channel from auto to 3(in my case), and netcfg worked well now. For the manual configuration, I suppose the "iwconfig wlan0 channel 3" should be issued.
    Thanks everyone in the forum for providing their solutions!

  • Impossible connecting with wireless network Netgear WNR 2000

    I can not log on to my wireless network (Netgear WNR 2000) with my macbook. My other PC:s work fine and connect always. My Macbook only connect after I have restarted the router. When I use my Macbook in other places I can connect with wireless network. What is the problem?

    I'm assuming that you're using the right network password!  After that, the most common causes of difficulty are:
    - The router not set up for DHCP and so cannot allocate an IP address to the MacBook
    - The router has "MAC" Address Authentication (a security feature - don't mistake MAC for Mac[intosh]) turned on and the AirPort MAC address isn't in the pass list.
    - The default "Automatic" location in System Preferences > Networks has been modified so that it no longer works.

  • Can I connect to wireless networks far away?

    How do I connect to wireless networks further away?
    Is there a way I can improve my laptops wireless range so I can connect to wireless networks further away?

    Hi!
    You can only connect to wireless networks that the notebook recognizes. If the notebook recognizes a wireless network, you can connect to them. If it doesnt recognize (because it is further away) you can not connect.
    Furthermore you can not improve the wireless range from the laptop. You can do this on a WLAN router, not on the notebook.

    My appletv is properly connected to wireless network, everything looks all right but it can't adjust the time and date. As a result it doesn't work.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Assuming this is not the first time you have used your Apple TV
    You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Also try restarting the router.
    If the problem persists, try a restore, you may want to try the previous procedures several times before doing this.
    If restoring from the Apple TV doesn't help, try restoring from iTunes using a USB cable.
    If this is a new Apple TV, in addition to trying the above, it may also be that your network router is not allowing access to the timeserver, check that your router allows access over port 123.

  • Need HELP! connecting to wireless network; IP Address problems!

    I am trying to connect to wireless networks using the AirPort built into my MacBook Pro. There are two specific networks I am trying to connect to, both are WEP protected. I know the passwords and can get into each of them but I cannot connect to the internet, which is the main reason for connecting to them in the first place! When I go into System Preferences and click on Network, I see that next to AirPort it says I am connected to the network but may not be able to connect to the internet because my computer has a Self Assigned IP address. I assume this means my computer is not receiving an IP address from the network. I am set on full auto with DHCP. So what's wrong? Please Help!!!

    That indicates that the MacBook Pro did not successfully communicate with the DHCP server on the network. Do those networks have access control (MAC address filtering) enabled? If so, the best solution is to reconfigure the base station so that this feature is disabled. This adds no real security since MAC addresses are easily discovered and cloned.
    If you can't disable access control, you will need to add the MAC address of the wireless interface of your MacBook Pro to the list of allowed clients.

  • [SOLVED] Cannot connect to wireless networks any more after update

    Hello,
    I updated my system some days ago and, after that, I can't connect to wireless networks any more.
    My network card is ath9k and I'm currently using wicd.
    When I try to connect to my wireless network, I get "Veryfing AP association" message, then it fails to connect.
    Here's the dmesg output :

    This particular line caught my attention: " wlan0: de-authenticating from 00:1c:10:57:47:17 by local choice (reason=3)". So I searched for it (without the MAC address) on the internet and found several solutions for it, involving wpa_supplicant, dhcpcd, IPv6 (disable it on /etc/sysctl.d/40-ipv6.conf) and card power management (operation not supported, don't have option on BIOS), but none of them worked for me.

    I've been connecting through wire since then and it's extremely uncomfortable being planted in one place.
    Thanks.

  • Can not connect to wireless networks with ipad 2

    My ipad used to connect to the wireless net at home and in public areas.
    Now all by the sudden it can't "see"  the network.
    Message: " could not connect to wireless network"
    I have tried "everything" also on different networks,
    except resetting the modem.
    My iPhone works, as do all my other computers.
    Modem is Zyxel P2812

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398

    iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • Can't connect to wireless network after Mac OS update

    I just bought a mid-2007 Macbook (2x2 GHz, 2 Gb), which came with OS X 10.5.1 installed.
    I connected to my wireless network (WPA2 Personal) without any problems and ran Software Update. This worked fine, including updating to 10.5.3.
    But now I can no longer connect to the wireless network. It either times out when I enter the password, and/or crashes the Network Preferences.
    I tried re-installing the system, but the installer said it couldn't install on this mac. That happened both with the 10.4.6 discs I got with the Macbook and with the 10.5 disk that came with my iMac.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi tankfield
    Sandra has already addressed the reason why you can't use the wrong CD-ROM to re-install OS X.
    However, the reason you had problems in the first place is that the 10.5.3 update contains some unacknowledged (by Apple) issues which cause flaky wireless connection. The same problem also appears on the latest update of Tiger. Apparently, not everyone is affected, but if you are then it's a real issue.
    There appears to be no single solution, just several suggestions. Off the top of my head, these are:
    - In your wireless router, switch off Mixed mode and only use G or N
    - Change the wireless channel so it doesn't class with the neighbours router
    - Don't use WEP encryption, only WPA or WPA2 (good advice anyway)
    - Put AirPort first in Network Preferences, and your home network first in Preferred Networks
    - Create a dummy location which is a clone of Automatic
    .... and many more - none of which worked for me.
    Finally, today I came upon this one which (so far) seems to be working.
    - Start up Utilities/Terminal and type this command EXACTLY followed by return:
    sudo sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.delayed_ack=0
    (It will ask for your password)
    In the unlikely event of this working for you, you will need to re-apply each time you reboot.
    Good luck
    Bob

  • IPod Touch cannot connect to wireless network

    I have a 1 TB, dual-band time capsule with a wireless network created to share our broadband internet connection for our main computer (the iMac), a windows PC, an iPhone 3G, and a 2nd gen iPod touch to connect to the internet. Wireless security for this network is WPA/WPA2 Personal. The windows box and the iPhone 3G connect without problem, but the iPod touch does not seem to connect correctly. The device sees the network, prompts for the password, and seems to be connected (wi-fi symbol visible in top left corner of device), but when trying to view a website using the Safari app, the screen dims and an endless "Connecting..." message is visible. Furthermore, when trying to update e-mail, I get a message that the connection to the server failed.
    It is worth noting that the iPod did not always have this problem. It was able to connect to the wi-fi network until a few weeks ago. This may have been due to the upgrade to Snow Leopard, or perhaps due to an incident where the windows PC lost its connection to the network. When this occurred, I had to disable all security on the network, connect the PC to the network, then re-enable security (as I had to do when first installing the Time Capsule; for whatever reason, the windows box had a hard time joining the network with security enabled). Anyway, one of these two events is the likely cause of the iPod suddenly being unable to connect; I'm sorry to say that I'm uncertain as to which one, because my wife uses the device sporadically, so we cannot pinpoint exactly when this difficulty started.
    As for attempted solutions, I tried resetting the iPod back to factory settings, only to have the same connection issues. I also changed the network security settings to None, and attempted to connect the iPod to the network (even though it should have no problem connecting to a secure network), but still no go. I am short on ideas for a fix, and would gladly welcome any advice the community has to offer. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

    Pretty much the same thing happened to me. My new Touch connects fine to my work wireless network (WEP64) - still does. But my home wireless network is SOL. I can join the router, wireless icon is in upper left corner (although gray, not green). I can even see the Touch from my router (Verizon FIOS). All other laptops in the house including wireless TiVo work flawlessly. I have not undone my security on my router yet - looks like it won't help. I have tried using static IP and I can still see iPod from router. But I cannot browse, go to AppStore, check email (which works great from work network), and have exact same error messages as above post. It has to be a security thing somewhere, I just didn't want to mess with router if I didn't have to. If I figure it out, I will post here........

  • Can´t connect to wireless network | unable to proceed installation

    Hello everybody!
    After using Ubuntu for about two years I´d like to use another Linux distro which suits my requirements better and ArchLinux seems to be the best solution for me. Anyway I got some trouble with the installation.
    I´m using the beginners guide from the wiki and this video as a reference while installing but I got stuck at the point when setting up the wireless network.
    wpa_supplicant -Dwext -ieth1 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf & >/dev/null
    ... outputs...
    eth1: WPA: Invalid EAPOL-Key MIC when using TPTK - ignoring TPTK
    eth1: WPA: Could not verify EAPOL-Key MIC - dropping packet
    (this is the same error message btw)
    It shows up this message every two seconds without stopping. The only thing I can then is shutting down my laptop and start from the beginning.
    I also tried using netcfg but without real success. There it doesn´t complain but I don´t got a working connection either.
    Another odd thing is that if I type
    /arch/setup
    to begin the actual installation it says "no such file or directory". Any ideas what needs to be configured before or what I am doing wrong?
    Any help is appreciated!

    Ok, I followed the beginners guide now bit by bit. After entering the command
    wifi-menu eth1
    I can select my network and enter the key which then displays this message:
    nl80211: Driver does not support authentication/association or connect commands
    Failed to connect to wpa_supplicant - wpa_ctrl_open: No such file or directory
    I tried to install the firmware as the wiki suggests it but I didn´t succeed in using pacman as it doesn´t seem to find the required package (ipw2200-fw).
    So how do I get this package then?
    Dude. Use you wlan interface not the ethernet one.
    Eg: wifi-menu wlan0
