Can't connect to wifi following upgrade to OS 2
I've just upgraded my blackberry playbook to OS 2 and now I can't connect to wifi. Previously save connections are no longer present. Connection attempts don't go past 1st attempt of three.
I've tried broadcasting the ssid and turning off the access control list.
Any ideas on how to fix?
Thanks,
Solved!

Can't connect to WIFI after upgrading to IOS 6
After upgrading to IOS6, my 4S stopped connecting any available wifi networks. It keep poping up "Unable to join the network "***" " when I tap any wifi spots I've been used so far. My problem is not like most people says. Instead of taking me the the apple website, mine doesn't even connected! This problem has been around for a week. I have to relay on 3G so far. I've tried resting the wifi setting, resting the iphone and even tried a lot of public wifi spots. It still doesn't work. Is it the problem of hardware? Help me, plz!
The solution lies in the router password encryption. There is the option WPA2 instead of current WPA/WPA2 on my router. I changed the setting to just WPA2 and it worked now. But the former option worked on iOS5.1.1. Thanks!
[Update]Turns out it is still unresolved. After the changing the encryption I restarted the router and it is still the luck I got before. The connection will not last long. Still unable to connect. -
Since upgrading my iPhone5 to the newest iOS (6.1.2) I can longer connect to WiFi. It sees the wireless network but will not connect.. Other devices in my home that weren't upgraded can connect just fine.
I had the same problem. I did the reset networks on my iPhone & it did not work. My husband read somewhere that changing the channel on the router to manual & selecting the highest available channel number might help. I did that & it solved the problem. I have not had the problem since.

Still can't connect to WiFi since iO6 upgrade on my iphone 4s
Still can't connect to WiFi since yesterday's iO6 upgrade on my iPhone 4s. Plus battery life is horrible!!
If you are having the issue where it takes you to a login page, goto Settings > WiFi and tap on the blue button to the right of your network name. There'll probably be an option to auto-join and you'll want to toggle that. If it's off, turn it on then back off. If it's on, toggle it off. If prompted to login again, just hit Cancel in the upper-right. Now goto Safari app and you should be prompted to connect to your network at which time it should work. It did for me at least and a friend of mine.

Hi, my wifi button just greyed out a few minutes ago and I can't connect to wifi. Have followed instructions given by Apple support but it's still not working. Does anyone have a solution? Thanks & Happy New Year :-)
First, you don't have a 5+ year old 3GS. The 3GS has only been around for under 4 years. In fact, 5 years ago there were NO iPhones; the original iPhone (2 generations before the 3GS) came out on June 29, 2007 - not quite 5 years ago. The 3GS was released June 19, 2009.
That aside, you can sync multiple phones to one computer - see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495. boogeyman is wrong. It is 100% safe to create an additional user name on her computer, log in with that name, and back up the phone. See this for details on what you want to do: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109 -
My iPod 5 can't connect to wifi. It connects to personal hotspots but no to my home wifi. I tried resetting the network settings but no change. I put the right password but it just keeps loading forever. What should I do??
Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. 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.
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 (Auto or Channel 6 is best). 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 wifi hotspots
After I updated my OX I can no longer connect to wifi hot spots.
I contacted apple support and they told me to put "com.apple.airport.preferences.plist" and "preferences.plist" from the library folder to my desktop and restart my computer.
I did nothing. I still can't connect to wifi. When I click net network preferences, under wifi,there is a yellow circle, not green.
Can someone tell me what the problem is? I can't work in libraries and cafes anymore!

Can't connect to wifi as hardware cannot be found
Hi, I m using MacBook and all the while I m able to connect to wifi. However, just 2 days ago, I can't connect to wifi all of a sudden? When I check the wifi icon on the desktop, it says "wifi no hardware installed". Tried going to System Preference to turn it on but the button does not respond to on the wifi. Does anybody know how to resolve this? Thank you
Might be corrupted network preferences ...
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
Click Go then move all the files in the SystemConfiguration folder to the Trash.
See if that makes a difference.
Your Mac will generate a new SystemConfiguration folder for you. -

iphone4s can't connect to wife pls help
Is it greyed out in settings??
I had the exact same issue with a 2 year old iPhone. I read up on it all day and tried everything. Last ditch - I tried a weird solution I found online and it worked. Overheat the iPhone gently with a hot hair dryer until it gives the Temperature alert and goes into recovery mode.
Now put it in a Ziplock bag and place it in the freezer for 5-10 minutes. If it comes back on you are ready to do teh following.
Go to Settings / General / Reset / Reset Network Settings. Reset it.
This takes a few mins. Once complete - force reboot the iPhone holding down the Home and Power buttons for about 10 second simultaneously. Once you see the Apple reboot let go.
It's weird - it was my last roll of the dice - but it worked. I was able to switch on the WiFi and it connected.
There is a Canadian post online where many people have had the same success -
IPhone 4s and can't connect to wifi,wifi is grayed out and says "No wifi".FREEZER TRICK WORKS!
I have iPhone 4s wchick cannot connect on wifi,wifi is grayes out and says"No wifi",i restart my phone,i reboot it and finally i restore it the problem remains,i put it on a freezer for more than 5 minutes and works for 1-2 minutes,but when outside temperature returns on the phone still can't connect on Wifi!what to do?
Anyone having the same problem?My iPhone 4s its not 6 months old!Try restoring your phone usng DFU mode. Here are steps to get DFU Mode: Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer. (some turn off iPhone here, I do not) Hold both home and power buttons for exactly 10 seconds, release power button, keep holding home button until iPhone recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. Usually takes 10-20 seconds of holding the home button. If the iPhone screen is black (blank) the iPhone is in DFU Mode.
