Not able to connect wireless

Dear community,
I am trying to find some support here after nobody can help me from customer service over the phone. I recently bought a new laptop, an HP Envy. Yesterday I started using it, it connected to my home network with no problem. I have a BT Home Hub 2.0.
All of a sudden I was not able to connect anymore. The strange thing is that I can connect to other wireless network (such as BT open zone). My girlfriend is connected to our home network with no problems. While receiving input from a BT technician i tried to enable/disable the adapter, reset the Hub ecc. Nothing changed, now I cannot connect to the network wireless, but only with an ethernet cable.
I was advised to take it back to the vendor, but this is something I would prefer to avoid.
Any input will be warmly welcome. Thanks
Riccardo

  • AirPort Express Not Able to Connect Wirelessly

    Hardware is iMac 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM.  Mac OS 10.6.8
    Connected to Internet via Motorola Surfboard SBG6580 Modem / Router, so I connect by wireless through the modem.
    I followed the installation instructions to install AirPort Express to play music on my home stereo.  I connected the Airport Express to the receiver by the tape port.  I was not able to install AirpPort Express via wireless mode, so I connected the iMac to the AirPort Express by CAT-5 hard wire cord.  The installation was successful and the AirpPort Express obtained an AP address.  I was then able to play music from iTunes pm the iMac through the stereo speakers...as long as the AirPort Express was connected by hard wire to the iMac.
    When I remove the CAT-5 cord from the AirPort Express, the AirPort Express retains the green light, but it is not able to receive data from the iMac.  To the contrary, the AirPort Utility is not able to find any AirPort wireless devices unless the AirPort Express is connected via the hard wire CAT-5 cord.
    As an experiment, I then connected the AirPort Express to the cable modem / router via the hard wire CAT-5 cord.  The AirPort utility on the iMac was still not able to find any AirPort wireless devices.  Further, the model then assigned a different AP address to the iMac so that it was not able to connect to the Internet..
    Meanwhile, the AirPort Express still retains the green light, indicating the installation was a success and that it is ready to transmit.
    Any advice to resolve this issue would be very much appreciated.  Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

    I suggest that you start by performing a "factory default" reset on the 802.11n AirPort Express Base Station (AXn) to get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration. By default, the AXn will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name of something like: Apple Network NNNNNN
    After the reset has completed, plug the AXn into power, and then, verify from the iMac that this network shows up in the list of networks under the AirPort icon in the OS X menu bar. Does it?
    If so, then from the AirPort icon, switch your iMac to connect to the AXn's wireless network. Note: You will temporarily lose the Internet connection from your Motorola router. Then, run the AirPort Utility. The Utility should now find the AXn. If not, use the Utility's "Configure Other" option under the File menu option in the Utility's menu bar. Enter 10.0.1.1 for the Address and "public" for the Password.
    AirPort Utility > Select the AXn > Manual Setup > AirPort > Wireless
    Wireless Mode: Join a wireless network
    Network Name: <existing Motorola's wireless network>
    Wireless Security: <select the encryption type of the existing wireless network>
    Wireless Password: <enter the existing wireless network password>
    Verify Password: <re-enter the existing wireless network password>
    AirPort Utility > Select the AXn > Manual Setup >Music
    Enable AirPlay (checked)
    iTunes Speaker Name: <enter desired speaker name>
    iTunes Speaker Password: (optional)
    Verify Password: (optional)

  • WRT54GS not able to connect wirelessly, or through ethernet

    Hello all, I have a problem with my WRT54GS router that has just popped up over the last couple of weeks.  It is connected to internet via ethernet cable. Light shows receiving signal. Wireless signal is intemittent, but unable to connect wirelessly.  Direct connection from router to desktop does not allow internet access.  All port lights on router work when something is plugged into them.  Am currently accessing internet via direct connect from modem to desktop. I have attempted to reset router when connected to ethernet, but my wireless internet connection only lasts about 1 minute, then I lose that capability. I still don't get any connection thru wired desktop.  Therefore I am not able to work with router settings or anything.  Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

    What ISP Service do you have? Cable or DSL?
    What ISP Modem Mfr. and model # do you have?
    Is ISP Modem/Service using Dynamic or Static WAN IP addressing?
    What ISP Modem service link speeds UP and Down do you have?
    Check cable between Modem and Router, swap out to be sure. Link>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAT6 is recommended.
    Check ISP MTU requirements, Cable is usually 1500, DSL is around 1492 down to 1472. Call the ISP and ask.

    For DSL/PPPoE connections on the router, ensure that "Always ON" option is enabled.
    If the ISP modem has a built in router, it's best to bridge the modem. Having 2 routers on the same line can cause connection problems: Link>http://www.practicallynetworked.com/networking/fixing_double_nat.htm and http://cognitiveanomalies.com/cisco-nat-how-nat-works/. If the modem can't be bridged then see if the modem has a DMZ option and input the IP address the router gets from the modem and put that into the modems DMZ. Also check the routers DHCP IP address maybe conflicting with the ISP modems IP address of 192.168.0.1. Check to see if this is the same on the ISP modem, and if modem can't be bridged, change the DIR router to 192.168.1.1 or .0.254.
    Prefered connection method with a ISP stand alone modem:
    I recommend that you have your ISP check the cabling going to the ISP modem, check signal levels going to the ISP modem. For cable Internet, RG-6 coaxial cable is needed, not RG-59. Check for t.v. line splitters and remove them as they can introduce noise on the line and lower the signal going to the ISP modem. Connecting to the ISP modem could result in a false positive as the signal to the modem could be just enough to that point then adding on a router, could see problems. Ensure modem is working well too. Bad modems are out there as well. The router operation is dependent upon getting good data flow from the ISP modem and the modem is dependent upon getting good signal from the ISP Service.

  • HP Photosmart Prem C410 Unable to print - not able to connect wireless

    Initial setup of my HP Photosmart Prem c410 printer -- cannot connect to my wireless network. The password is good. There is no MAC address filtering on my wireless router. Help. ;-)
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    OK, I figured it was a DSL router, but wanted to be sure.
    DSL routers are rather non-standard, so we have to relieve them of some control during the printer installation:
    1. Unplug the phone line to the router.
    2. Restart the router by pulling its power plug out of the back momentarily, then plug back in.
    3. Wait for the router to restart.
    4. Install your printer, including software on your computer.
    5. When the printer is installed and working, plug the phone line back in the router.
    6. Restart the router again.

  • Not able to connect on my secured wireless network

    I am having WRT54G2 router and i configure my router for my home. I configured it as secured network. I have a laptop (IBM Thinkpad R52). But i am not able to connect my home wireless secured network. When i try to connect any other unsecured (open to all) network from my laptop it allows me. For any secured network it says Acquiring Network address. What should I do?

    What encryption are you using?
    What operating system are you using?
    For WEP, you must enter WEP "key 1"  (found in the router)  into your computer, not the WEP password or passphrase.
    For WPA or WPA2, you must enter the key (sometimes called password or passphrase) into your computer.
    Note that WPA2  (= WPA with AES)  requires that you upgrade Windows XP to SP3.   If you have not done this yet, do this now.  Note that Windows Vista already works with WPA2.
    If you still have trouble connecting, in the computer, temporarily disable your software firewall, including Windows Firewall, and see if that helps.
    If you still have trouble, download and install the latest driver for the wireless adapter in your computer.

  • I have an iPad with iOS 5.0.1 that is not able to connect to cisco wireless networks at work.

    Hi, I have an iPad that is not able to connect to any of the Cisco wireless access points at work. The iPad is on the latest iOS 5.0.1. I did a reset on the iPad and erased all content and settings. The wireless network I'm trying to connect uses WPA2 Enterprise encryption. I'm able to connect to a Verizon mifi device so I know wireless is working. It seems like it's just not getting the certificate. I'm able to connect to our wireless network from other iPads just fine except for this one device. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to troubleshoot the issue. Thank you.

  • Not able to connect to Internet (Safari pre-set websites, YouTube, i-Tunes)

    I am not able to connect to the internet, even though it appears I'm getting wireless on the iTouch. Have read numerous threads, nothing I have done has worked (tying to match my iTouch wireless settings to my Windows laptop settings, restarting router multiple times, choosing other under networks and trying to reset up my router config, trying to connect to IP using http://192.168.1.1 and/or http://192.168.1.1).
    So get message "Cannot Connect to iTunes store", "Cannot connect to YouTube", and "Safari can't open the page because it can't find the server".
    On my wirless settings (note my router is a Netgear DG834GB and works fine on both Windows based laptops in our home):
    - My home network is checked;
    - Under DCHP, BootIP, and Static all fields BUT router, search domains, client ID are checked.
    - HTTP proxy is currently set to Auto with URL blank.
    Apologies, been trying to read through threads to find the answer that will get me going, but either haven't found it yet or things like installing firmware (where do I install it, on my laptop or itouch, etc?) I don't understand what exactly needs to be done to do that.

  • Not able to connect my Iphone to my WRT54GS router with security enabled

    As the subject line states, I'm not able to connect my Iphone to my WRT54GS router when the security is enabled. When ever I attempt to connect to my network with my phone it always tells me the password is incorrect. I have double checked the password in the easylink advisor and it matches up. I have also tried both WPA and WEP with the same result, I know that the wireless is working on the router as I turned the security off and was able to connect to it. I updated the firmware this evening also with no changes. If anyone could help me with this issue it would be much appreciated.

    First of all, in the router, give your network a unique SSID. Do not use "linksys". If you are using "linksys" you may be trying to connect to your neighbor's router. Also, in the router, set "SSID Broadcast" to "enabled". This will help your iPhone find and lock on to your router's signal.
    To connect using WEP, enter WEP "key 1"  (found in the router)  into the iPhone, not the WEP password or passphrase.
    To connect using WPA, make sure that there is not an encryption nomenclature problem.  For example, WPA is not the same as WPA with AES.  Please note the following:
    WPA    =   PSK    =   WPA with TKIP  =  WPA   personal
    WPA2  =   PSK2  =   WPA with AES   =  WPA2 personal
    I am not certain, but your iPhone probably does just ordinary WPA  (not WPA with AES).  Assuming that this is correct, then the router should be set to:
    "WPA personal"  with  "TKIP"
    Also, in the iPhone, be sure to delete the entry for your unsecured connection to your router, before you try to input info regarding the secured connection to the router.
    Hope this helps.
