ATV stopped seeing the wifi network

Immediately after having done the latest firmware upgrade few days ago, the ATV stopped seeing the wifi network. Even if I type the network name in manually, no luck, it can't find it. Clearly an issue due to the latest update. The problem is that since it cannot connect to internet, it won't even reset to factory settings. Any help?

It isn't an issue with the latest update per se, otherwise everyone else would have the same problem, it's an issue with your specific equipment, whether that be a faulty Apple TV, a corrupt install or something to do with your network. The difference being either your Apple TV is broken or it can be resolved.
Can it see any other networks.
Have you tried restarting it.
Have you tried restoring it.
Have you tried temporarily diabling network security.
Have you tried adjusting any network settings.

Airport Extreme green light but can't see the wifi network

Hello, coming back from the holidays I can't see my Wifi network anymore (From PS3, Phone, Computers ..etc.). My airport has a greenlight and the internet is working fine if my computer is connected with an Ethernet cable. I re-did the configuration many times and I did a hard reset of both my modem and the airport. It is not setted to a hidden connection. All the settings are basic like before. The only difference is that I did the update to 7.6.4.

I think you were right, my airport was broken and I noticed that at the end of the configuration process where there's a green checkmark it was written in the bottom that a wifi device wasn't working properly. Nothing could be done to make it work though.
I bought a new Airport Express now but I still have a major problem. I was able to configure it through wifi with my iMac without any problem and now it is connected to the internet via wifi perfectly but i STILL can't see the network with either my Android phone or my PS3 console !?
- Brand new airport express
- configured to "create a wifi network" with a WPA2 password using the simple steps of the airport utility
- Airport Utility 5.6.1
I did reset the airport express a few times with the utility and by removing the power cord. I also did reset my iMac and I can still connect to the wifi just fine with it.

Can see the wifi network but can't connect to the internet

Hi all!
I've begun using a new ISP a few days ago, and while my desktop pc works just fine (ethernet), I seemed not to be able to connect to internet with my mac (either ethernet or wifi) even if I could see the wireless network. I thought it was an issue with the ISP and not with my mac, until last night when I tested it at a friend's house and bling..I couldn't connect there either!
All seetings seem fine both for ethernet and airport. Today I've verified and repaired disk and permissions. I've also created a location specifically for this network (while I've always used automatic before) since the ISP suggested to do so.
I've been able to use the internet, both wifi and ethernet, until literally two days ago on all sorts of different wifi networks.
Any ideas folks?
Thanks,
D

Hi! It's been a while but here's the latest update on the case.
(And yeah,I've been struggling until today to find a solution...Danny's personal advice: don't move to Italy if you don't wanna get lost in a Customer Service nightmare...)
Anyhow, it turned out to be as simple as this:
1) Create a location dedicated to the home network.
2) Insert PPPoE user name and password given by ISP.
3) Connect.
4) Browse wirelessly.
...I feel a little dumb overlooking this option....but, I still have some doubts reg the procedure.
Why did I have to create a dedicated location?
Why do I have to use PPPoE rather than DHCP?
Thanks mate,

Mac cant see the wifi network if i dont get close enough which was not an issue before

Hi. I have a macbook pro OSX 10.8.4
At the office my mac can not see our network router if i dont get close enough.
This was not an issue before i could directly connect it at my desk. now when i turn the
computer on i need to take to mac as closest as i can get to the router ( in next room ) wait for connection
and return to my room. and this way i still can get full signal.
and also a windows laptop on my desk and even my iphone can find the router and connect with no problem
at my office.
any ideas ?

Just got a macbook, and I cannot print on my printer. I used to be able to print on my printer with my old Dell laptop, but I can't print with my macbook. I can see the printer network on on my macbook, it says it is my default printer, but I can't print.

I just got a macbook air and I cannot print on my home printer which is networked through my wife's window based computer. I can see the wifi network, I can see the printer, it is set as my default, but I can't print.
Any ideas?

You may have to visit the printer manufacturer's web site and look into their support pages to get a print driver for your Mac, and install it. Or see if you can see if a driver may already be in your Mac by checking settings, since there are many drivers already installed in Mac OS X.
Good luck & happy computing!

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?

If no change after restoring the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem with the wireless card or with something else.

HT204409 I pad 2 not seing the wifi network.

I have mac pro, i pod and 2 ipads, 1 is connecting to the WI FI network perfectly ,, the other ipad (same version - i pad 2) stopped seeing the wirless netowrk since this morning,,, what to do ?

Some things to try first:

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

My Apple Tv is connecting to the Wifi network but is not connect to the internet. So when I look for it on my Airplay it doesn't come up. I have 3 other ones already working on the network and they are all fine.

My apple TV is finding and connecting to the Wifi network but then says it is not connected to the internet and then I cannot find it on the iPad through airplay. I don't want it connected to the internet (as in www.) because for the use I have I only need to use the Apple tvs locally in a sports hall as scoreboards. I have 3 others working on the same router and they are working fine (as of yesterday)
On my screen I see (obviously not written like this)
network connect- yes
signal strength- fine
Ip address- fine
DCN- fine
Activation- Failed
This is the only negative I can find and the statement that the Apple TV has connected to the wifi but is not connected to the internet.
Where has it gone wrong for me. Please help

It is not properly connected to the network.
Make sure location is set correctly
DNS should be on auto (settings - general - network)
Try ethernet
Signal strength on device won't account for issues, you would need a network report from istumbler, netstumbler or similar. This will show accurate signal strength along with noise and nearby networks

my mini is connected to the wifi network, but is not able to connect to the working internet... can anybody help, please?

192 is local address within your network.
Unless the adddress is of a server that can reolve URL names to ip addresses you wont be able to load an external web page.
You can check what it should be by checking your router status page.
Or if you have an iOS device check under settings, W-Fi, select the network your attched to, then see what is next to DNS.

Your wifi network is not working. Restart it. Delete your wifi settings for this network via System Preferences, Network, WiFi, Advanced. Reconfigure and try again.
