TS1398 I can not find my wifi network on my ipad. My iphone conected fine.
I can not find my wifi network on my ipad, My iphone connects fine. I tryed restarting the ipad and router. Please help
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

My iphone can not find the wifi networks
my iphone can not find the wifi networks
Is your router plugged in? Do you have internet?
Come on...
I have the same issue. Yesterday I could connect to my wifi just fine, but today I turned on my wifi and the wheel just spins and spins. I restart my phone and I get the "greyed out" wifi switch. So I restart, and I'm back to square one. The wheel just keeps spinning.
I've updated the router firmware, I've power cycled everything multiple times, and still nothing.
Can anyone give a real solution? Or do we just have to suffer until apple update this **** IOS6? -
Since upgrading my 4s iPhone to the latest iOS , I now can not see many wi-fi locations beyond my home network. Friends can find and connect to many wifi networks yet my iPhone does not even see them. I can not recall prior to the upgrade whether in the settings whether turning on the wifi was shown as wifi or WLAN however the on/off is now WLAN. Not sure what the difference is. I totally reset the phone but no improvement. Can any body help me?
I have tried this however it did not make a difference. I found another user on the support pages that has the same issue.

My 13 inch Macbook Can Not find ANY wifi networks! Help!
I turned on my Macbook today only to find that no wifi networks are showing up, not even the neighbors! Im connected to the eather right now. My roommates laptop PC can connect fine. I need some help fixing it. Why is it not finding ANY networks at all?
Open System Profiler and check if the compter can still recognize your wireless device. Try resetting the SMC as well and see if this helps.

Can you go to Settings/WiFi, or is the setting greyed out? If it's greyed out see this: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559
If you can go to Settings/WiFi do you see any networks? Is the problem with one network or all networks? -
Macbook Air can not find my wifi. It detects all the neighbouring ones but can not find mine.
Hi. I have a new (5months old) Macbook Air that used to work fine. Until now...
I went for a 2 months trip and left my macbook at home, so it was not is use for the past 2 months. When I turned it on a couple of days ago, the date and time was messed up (automatic setting showed me 01.01.2012.) and the bigger issue, it can not find my wifi network. It detects all the neighbouring networks but mine. I have tried setting up a new network, troubleshooting, etc, but nothing has worked. My iPhone and my other laptop (hp) can find the wifi without any problem. The network settings have not changed either...
Any idea how to solve this?
Many thanks!Hi,
thanks for your reply.
The problem is, I can't even open the network preference pane, as it is not responding.
Earlier I wanted to log into iCloud - it started loading and now it is completely 'frozen'. I can not close it, I can not quit system preferences and I also can not restart my macbook (it won't let me until I quit system preferences).
I am sure the solution is very easy, but I have no idea what to do
Many thanks for your help in advance! -
IMAC can not see any wifi networks at all?
IMAC can not find any wifi network at all. A few days ago the Imac suddenly had no wifi and on turning the WIFI on and off it became apparent that when it scans for wifi it can see no wifi networks at all. I have several other computers and they all see the wifi networks fine. I assume it is a hardware issue but the hardware test I preformed comes up with no errors. Anyone got any ideas?

Computer can not find the wifi internet
Goodmorning,
I have a mac book pro (with lion) and wifi internet at home. All of a sudden my computer can not find my network although it is available and working as an i pad and a mobile are working via this wifi network.
I tried 'create a network' and 'join other network' but it looks like the computer can not find the wifi network. My computer has internet access via cable, but just by plugging in the cable wihtout changing the settings (switching off the wifi).
Any idea what to do ?
ThanksThe Mac on cable uses Ethernet. Wi-Fi uses AirPort. Try and delete your Airport setting and re-enter your configurations again.

I changed the channel on my Belkin Wireless router now my ipod touch 1G can't find my wifi network?
A few hours ago I changed the channel on my Belkin Wireless router for the 1st time. It was either on auto, or channel 6 before, i'm not sure, but I changed it to 11, and now my ipod touch 1G can't find my wifi network. I tried changing it to 6, but nothing, and I also can't go back to auto. Can someone please help. I've already searched for the network, and it says "Cant find network". I've also restarted my router. I also added the MAC address, still nothing. Other than those things, I havent touched anything else. My ipod could connect before just find. My Wifi is not disabled, and it's not on private. I can connect with other wifi's fine. And I can connect to other networks with my ipod, I also held down the button on top, and the home button for 10 seconds to restart and nothing. I also reset my network settings. Please help!
Find the documentation for your router and look up "Reset to Factory Defaults." This process will put the router back to the way it was when you bought it.

After I connect my iPhone (3GS 5.0.1) to any Ad-hoc wireless Network then walk away out of the reach of my wifi network, my iPhone can't find any wifi Network afterwards, only by turning off the iPhone completely and turning on again.
switching off wifi and on again or going into airplane mode did't help!
This problem happens only with ad-hoc wifi networks not with normal ones.
(Ad-Hoc network was created on XP Computer)Welcome to Apple Discussions
Sorry, but the 169.x.x.x IP address is internally generated by the iPod (and iPhone) and indicates that a network has been detected but no IP address has been issued. Your friends iPhone was not connected to your ad hoc network either - it connected to the internet through the 3G network.
You should read through the Vista help screens on ad hoc networking for some insight how this works. You should be able to get some ideas there.
In the mean time, $40 or less will buy you a very capable wireless router with four Ethernet ports and will simplify your network tremendously. Having used Windows ICS for a long time, the addition of a router and a real network simplified things so much. -
My airport can't find my wifi network.
I have a Gateway 2wire that I came with AT&T Uverse. It has been problematic at times, but now my iMac can't find the wifi network at all. It doesn't make sense to me. Sometimes it works great, sometimes it keep dropping off. Me and my wife both have iPhones, my iPhone found the network no problem, hers could not, so I entered it manually and that worked. Then my iMac was working great on it, then all of a sudden, for no apparent reason, it stopped working and now it can't find the wifi network. I can't even enter it manually. The iPhones see it and work fine, my Wii see's it and works fine. But my new blu-ray can't see it either. So why are some of my devices working fine with it, and others can't even find it. I have worked with AT&T a few time and they keep saying it's not the 2wire. I don't believe them, I have read to many reports of similar problems with the 2wire with AT&T. Is there anything I can do to solve this. I keep thinking I wan't to get an Airport Extreme and connect it to the 2wire, I have read that it is possible and will work, but I wan't to know why this router is visible to some devices and not others. Does anyone understand this.
I'm not sure what you mean. You can't find the express to set it up.. or you can't find the network created by the express?

HT1695 Can't Find any wifi Networks after updragding to 6.0.1
My iPhone 4 can't find any wifi networks after upgrading to iOS 6.0.1 and i can't downgrade what should i do ?
I swtiched off the connection from mobile and restared the router and nothing changed!
Note: My laptop found about 7 Networks my iphone finds nothingI have the exact same problem.
It popped up on my 8gb iPhone (2.0.1) first time when i just purchased it. The Wheel spins as if it's searching for hotspots (and there are a lot of hotspots where i live). My MacbookPro finds them without any problems.
Second time i experienced these problems, it was after i didn't have a chance to charge the phone, and i figured it was a "Low battery, disable wifi" thing. But even though i charged it fully, it still can't scan networks.
I managed to discharge the battery, until the 10% warning popped up. I connected the charger, and sure enough, it was able to scan networks. Then when i tried to join a network, it stopped working again, and since then i've been unable to scan wifi. Now 3 resets, and a lot of fiddling later, i'm no further than i was before.
The fact that it was able to scan momentarily points me in the direction of the software, but i'm not so sure anymore.
Hope someone can shed some light on this. -
my iphone 4s can not scan any wifi network, i tried everything but still can not scan any wifi connection even though our wifi is working properly in our mac book and ipad. What do i need to do if the problem is the hardware?pls help
When you say it "can not scan any wifi network" do you mean it is not detecting Wi-Fi networks?
Is Wi-Fi turned on in Settings > General > Wi-Fi?
Have you tried Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings?
Is it just the home network that the device will not connect to? or any network?
