Apple TV unable to connect to wireless internet.

Many people seen to have this same connection problem of Apple TV with the internet.  I have to unplug the power cord to restart.  When it powers back up, I am unable to open "settings" which seems to be the only way to check or change things.  All other equipment using same wireless network are working fine.  I have not tried the steps where you connect your Apple TV to your computer and do a restore in iTunes.  Has that worked for anybody?

  • Unable to connect to wireless Internet...help!

    I have just got back from Christmas holidays to find that my mac won't connect to the internet through the wireless hub or bt open zone. I have reset everything I can think of, restarted the router etc, etc, but with no success. Can anyone help? It's so frustrating as it was fine before I went away?

    Hello j2534a, welcome to Lenovo forums!
    Please ask your admin. I had the same problems. The firewall is the main problem me thinks.
    But that´s an issue for your admin.

  • HT204400 I am trying to set up my apple tv and i am unable to connect to the internet because i need to get to an internet page to put in my password. HELPPPPPPPPP

    There is no web browser on the ATV, as a result, it cannot be used with such Internet connections.
    Contact whomever provides support for the Wi-Fi service, they may be able to add the ATV to a whitelist to allow it to connect.

  • IPod Touch unable to connect to wireless network.

    I just got an iPod Touch 4 for my birthday (w00t), however I cannot seem to get it to connect to my wireless router. Everytime I try, it says Unable to connect to network. I reset the routers password, but it didn't do anything. I saw in other threads people said to switch ti WPA security, but mine is already set as WPA Personal. I'm not sure what to do! Please help!

    NO I did not and thank you very much for the advice.  My problem was stated incorrectly in that while I am able to connect to the wireless from that point on I am unable to connect to the internet.  I will check the article referred to.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8000 Wireless: HP printer unable to connect to wireless router.

    Installing new printer,  getting error msg saying HP printer unable to connect to wireless router.   MAC address filtering may be enabled on your wireless router which can prevent HP printer from connecting to your wireless network during setup.
    SOLUTION says:  If MAC address filtering is enabled and you would like to keep it enabled, you must add the MAC addressof your printer to the list of permitted devices for your wireless router before continuing.
    My router is WD My Net N900 Router. MAC filtering is diabled. My security mode is WPA/WPA2 Personal. 
    I have run out of ideas to try and fix the issues, would appreciate some help.
    Thanks,

    Hi Jamshidk
    I am surprised you are getting that message and you checked the router settings and it is showing that the Mac Filtering is disabled.
    I would suggest connecting the printer to the router with a ethernet cable to get a valid IP address and then setup the wireless.
    Print a configuration report.

    Type the IP address from the configuration page  in the address bar into internet explorer browser. This will open the embedded web server for the printer. Click on the Networking tab, on the left hand side select wireless. After this is setup and applied, disconnect the ethernet cable.
    Should be on the wireless network. Takes about 1 minute.
    Run the add printer wizard.
    Go to start, devices and printers and select add a printer. (Win 7)
    Test the printer.
    If you need more assistance just let me know.

  • Difficult to connect to wireless internet

    Hello,
    I hope someone can help. I've been looking through these boards for days and nothing seems to work.
    I am usually not able to connect to wireless internet if my macbook is more than about 10 feet away from my time capsule. However, SOMETIMES I am able to get a strong signal from another room - adding to my frustration.
    Here are its current settings:
    Firmware 7.4.2 (I've tried all versions from 7.3.2 on - no noticeable difference)
    Connected to modem via ethernet.
    Radio mode 802.11n (802.11b/g compatible)
    Cannot install Airport Extreme Update 2007 002 because my hard drive does not meet volume requirements (???).
    Therefore cannot install Airport Extreme 802.11n Enabler.
    TC is set to a unique channel according to iStumbler. Minimal interference.
    Many thanks for your suggestions.
    Paul

    Wireless devices in the U.S. must by law, operate on either 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz. The vast majority of wireless networks are running at the 2.4 GHz frequency, which is one of the same frequencies that cordless phones have been assigned.
    I can't speak for Apple, but it's fair to say that they and all other manufacturers are limited to what they can do and have no control over that. The airways are already overcrowded and it will get much worse.
    Your Time Capsule is capable of creating a wireless network at 5 GHz, so it's worth a try to see if that might solve your interference issues at 2.4 GHZ. There are far fewer networks in this range and cordless phones in general will not conflict with this frequency.
    Open AirPort Utility
    Click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab just below the row of icons
    Look for the Radio Mode setting and choose something like 802.11n only at 5 GHz.
    Update settings
    The downside here is that older devices that operate on "g" speed will not be able to connect. I couldn't tell from your post whether you might have other devices there besides your Time Capsule and MacBook. I'm not sure if the MacBook will connect if it's more than a few years old, but worth a try.
    Post back when you have had a chance to experiment.

  • HT204400 Apple TV unable to connect to the WiFi Router solution.

    Having found my new Apple TV unable to connect to my WiFi Router I discovered a technique which may be useful to others. Use your mobile phone as a mobile hotspot instead. I hope this helps other people with a similar connectivity issue.

    Hi, i do have a similar situation. Everytime I try to synchronise itunes with my ATV (also version 2.3), it synchronise between 4 and 10 songs and then automatically disconnect the wireless connection on my computer (my ibook and other notebook stays connected at the same time). regards, Erik

    Try the iPad forum, then:

  • I have a Motorola SB6141 modem that is connected to a time capsule. I am unable to connect to the internet on my laptop and playstation 3

    Ive just switched to a "Motorola SURFboard eXtreme Cable Modem" which is connected to a time capsule.
    I am unable to connect to my internet via. wifi on my Playstation.
    I have already tried many different attempts to connect to the internet. I have tried to directly connect to the internet using an ethernet cable as well as restarting my mac laptop and playstation. I am only able to connect to the internet on my main computer.
    Please help?
    I tried being the most descriptive I could

    I am only able to connect to the internet on my main computer.
    What IP does your main computer get.. ?? Post a screenshot if you can as it helps to see the details.
    When you open the airport utility on the main computer.. click on the TC what errors does it show?
    They will list in the summary.
    What mode is the TC in? If the setup went wrong it might be bridged when it should be in router mode..
    Remember any time to change things around with cable modems you MUST shut down the modem as well.. it cannot change the MAC address of the first item easily so need to be off.. a few minutes at least.. sometimes up to 20min or longer. Make sure the TC captures the public IP on the wan interface.. which is the only way this will work with a pure modem.
    The most recent TC can still have issues.. new AC version TC and AE have the Max amount of issues with SB6121 and 6141.. there seems to be some ethernet issue between them..
    What model TC do you have??
    You can slow the LAN port down or specify the actual speed in the Gen1-4.

  • Macbook pro just stopped connecting to wireless internet.

    I have tried restarting it and deleting the old usernames and paswords, but nothing works. I thought it might be an  internet problem but i am having the same problem at home and school.
    Can anyone help me?

    My macbook stopped connecting to wireless internet. Ive tried everything. HELP!
    Open System Preferences then select the Network tab.
    Cick Assist me... then click Diagnostics
    If any of the buttons on the left are red click Continue.
    That should help narrow down whether it's Wi-Fi or your settings or your ISP.

  • Curve 9380 unable to connect to the internet via wifi

    I'm using curve 9380 and unable to connect to the internet via my home wifi, there is no blackberry logo beside the wifi signal symbol. I don't have this probelm if I'm using my laptop or curve 8520 to connect to the internet via the same wifi router. Please help. Thank you.

    Check firewall, if you're on wifi then try ethernet to rule out interference. It is likely a network issue.

  • Unable to connect to the internet please try again later

    I have a blackberry torch 9800, I don't have a data plan. I use a wifi signal with other phones, but my blackberry doesn't allow me to browse or view apps online.  The error "unable to connect to the internet please try again later" appears.  The phone has a clear signal of the wifi, i've tried various other hotspots, my other phones work perfectly.  The blackberry says it's connected to the wifi, but no internet browsing is possible.  What else can I do other than rip the battery out to re-boot?

    well that sux, are there any alternatives?

  • "Unable to connect to the internet, please try again" wifi issue

    I recently recieved my blackberry storm in the mail excited to use the wifi. I set it up including entering the correct security code a number of time for the "wep" security options and it recognizes the network. I believe it's connecting also, but when I open my browser the message of "Unable to connect to the internet,please try again." pops up. I have a verizon account with a data plan, but due to not wanting to use up my data plan I switched it off as only to rely on my wifi. What can I do? I've updated everything and tried so many things. Our wifi has never done this to any other device. PLEASE HELP!

    in the browser, go to the options and setthe default browser as "Hotspot browser" instead of "Internet Browser".
