Cannot connect to secure guest network

My company is pushing more of our work content to the iPad2 via internet connection to databases, etc.  I work in a hospital as a vendor.  The hospital has a guest network setup that requires authentication by providing your email address and accepting their terms and conditions. For a few months I had no issues connecting with the company provided iPad2.  For the last month, I have not been able to get connected. I can work on my 3G connection, but most places I go in the hospital do not allow a 3G connection.  The iPad sees the guest network, and is connected as indicated by the blue check mark.  Additionally, my Android phone and Windows XP laptop connect with no problem. 
The information the ipad is pulling from the router is:
IP Address:  172.22.80.149
Subnet mask:  255.255.255.0
Router:  172.22.80.4
DNS:  192.168.16.8
IP address is set to DHCP.  HTTP Proxy is OFF.  Auto-join and Auto-login are both on. I've tried it with Auto-login turned off too. The error message I get in Safari is:  'Cannot verify server identity. Safari cannot verify the identity of "securelogin.arubanetworks.com".'
I've tried forgetting the network and renewing the lease. I've tried resetting network settings.  The hospital's IT department doesn't provide support. Currently my company's IT department is baffled. 
The iPad is running iOS v5.0.1.  Ipod touch CAN get connected by seeing the authorization screen, agreeing to terms and providing email. 
Can anyone please help?!

Scott, welcome to the discussions!
First make sure your Radio Mode is set to "802.11n (802.11b/g compatible). The titanium powerbook is probably a "g" or "b" device so you need this setting for compatibility.
Sounds like the titanium powerbook cannot handle WPA/WPA2 security settings. Try WEP and see if that will work.
WEP is not nearly as secure, but you may need to accept that compromise if you want the titanium powerbook to work on the network.
Post back on your progress.

  • Guests can not connect to my guest networks.

    Everytime someone trys to connect to my guest network it just keeps spinning and trying to connect.  I even turned off the security.  Anyone have an idea of what i am doing wrong

    You are probably not doing anything wrong......you probably do not have the correct type of modem to support the guest network feature.
    Basically, the AirPorts need to connect to a simple modem......not a modem/router or gateway type of device that is often furnished to customers by Internet Service Providers.
    If you can provide the make and model number of the device that you call your "modem", we can check to see if it might be compatible with the guest network feature on the AirPort router.

  • I installed Mountain Lion on my iMac. Now I cannot access the Internet. All the other computers and tablets have no problem. I did PRAM and MC reset, modem reset, etc., all the usual ju-ju. I also cannot connect on my local network to any other computer.

    I installed Mountain Lion on my iMac. Now I cannot access the Internet. All the other computers and tablets on the network have no problem. I did PRAM and MC reset, modem reset, etc., all the usual ju-ju. I also cannot connect on my local network to any other computer. Yet Network control panel says I am connect to the modem, and Network Diagnosis says I am connected to the Internet. It's like the blind man who has eyes that cannot see. BTW, I am not some newbee. I have been a Machead since the early nineties and set up a half dozen networks, including the one I am using at home to which the iMac mysteriously is there but not. This has me stumped! I am considering going back to 10.7!

  • HT4262 I have two networks one each in two cities.  Both are named the same but require different passwords. I am at my second location but cannot connect to his wifi network. How do I delet one network so I can connect to my second network?

    I have two networks one each in two cities.  Both are named the same but require different passwords. I am at my second location and cannot connect to this wifi network. How do I delet one network so I can connect to my second network?

    Just go to the wireless network preferences and empty out all the stored wireless networks.. then scan and connect to the local wireless.
    Select them and tap the - button below it.
    Once they are emptied out.. it might be good to reboot the computer with the remember networks unchecked.
    Start with a clean slate.

  • Cannot connect to the wireless networking

    My Toshiba Laptop was preinstalled with Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit OS, and it had been working quite well with the wireless BB. However, the wireless internet connection was on and off within recent weeks, while the other mobile devices, such as iphone, ipad, or laptop, in my household had no such problem. The wireless signal was so strong, but the error message always said 'Windows cannot connect to the wireless networking'. It seemed there was something wrong with the wireless adapter.
    I got a new TP-Link wireless adapter properly installed. Luckily, this worked; but unluckily, this worked for less than 24 hours. It was really frustrating that I, as a full-time student, depended so much on wireless networking.
    Please help!!! Harry

    Hi there
    You may want to enlighten us with:
    - What model are You using (f.ex. L300-123)
    - What BIOS version is installed?
    - What WLAN driver are You using?
    All these questions are answered in PC Diagnostics found under Toshiba app folder in the start menu.

  • Cannot connect to security server

    Just installed 9.1standalone client. When I tried to launch JD Edwards 9.10 I got an error 'cannot connect to security server'. I have done all possible solutions as written on this site: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24902_01/doc.91/e22499/ch_startclient.htm#autoId2
    but still it was not able to resolve my issue.
    Anybody who can help me?

    Hi Ryan,
    Based on my research, the issue should occur due to a by design behavior in Threat Management Gateway (TMG). To work around this issue, you can use SSL between the TMG and the SharePoint Web Server.
    Hope this helps.

  • My iPod touch 5th generation will not connect to secure WiFi networks.

    My 5th gen iPod touch will not connect to Secure wifi networks. It always says incorrect passcode. I have checked the passcode over and over again and I am sure it's correct. it's not just happening with my home network, also at work it never works. It is fine connecting to unsecure networks though. please help me.

    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 the 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 make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I cant seem to connect to the guest network i created on the airport extreme.

    i seem to have set the base station up ok, but setting up the guest network has me pulling my hair out, i have set this up on my mac however when i try to connect my ipad to the guest network it accepts the password but all i get is that pinwheel forever spinning and not actually connecting. also when i open airport utiliy and see the base station in the top left corner the button that says connected devices when clicked shows nothing, they are greyed out, however when i click on the base station i do see my ipad and iphone and mac.

    Whethere or not the guest network feature will work correctly depends on what type of device is providing your Internet connection.
    The Guest Network will work if you have a simple modem.
    Unfortunately, most Internet Service Providers furnish a modem/router to their customers.....which will not allow the Guest Network feature to be activated correctly.
    If you are not sure whether you have a modem or modem/router.....post back with the make and model number of the device that you call your "modem".

  • Cannot connect to secure AFP server...

    I have enabled Secure connections for the AFP on 10.4.9 server. however i am unable to connect from my clients with a secure connection. This was working, until I actiated WEB. How do i make this work again?
    Thanks!

    To be more specific secure AFP seemed to stop working after I started secure WEB. (https) I dont know why this is happening either. does AFP and secure WEB use the same ssl cert? could that be the problem? Just to note i have AFP, DNS, Firewall, Print, and WEB running on my server. I also have Remote Login (SSH) active in System Preferences. Every thing elese work great. I just cannot connect to secure AFP ( I can connect with clear text passwords via AFP). ssh via terminal works with all of the servers users. I am running Tiger Server 10.4.9. any clues? =)

    3. Microsoft router MN-500:
    Tried this old router (the one I used before purchasing the LinkSys). It is an old (circa 2002) Wireless B base station with WEP Security. The iPhone was never able to connect to the Internet using various settings, many of which were duplicates of the LinkSys tests above.
    On both routers my wife's Dell laptop and my HP printer connect without incident, using the same network/security settings.
    I have always been able to connect to various unsecured WiFi networks; I have never been able to connect to a secure WiFi network (although the only one I've really tried has been my own).
    I am at a loss as to what to do next. Any suggestions?

    SUCCESS!!!!!
    I visited my brother-in-law yesterday and attempted to connect with his secure network. By sheer luck, he is using the exact same model LinkSys router. My iPhone connected first time--so the iPhone was eliminated as a source of the problem.
    I didn't do a lot of troubleshooting at his house, but I did notice that his network was set for both dynamic DHCP and dynamic DNS. I know that either or both of Windstream (my ISP) and my broadband modem requires a pair of static DNS addresses.
    Sure enough, delving real deep into Windstream's support site, I discovered a LinkSys router DNS help page, specifying how to set static DNS addresses in LinkSys routers. I then accessed my router, enterd the known static addresses, saved the router settings, then rebooted the iPhone and connected to the network.
    SUCCESS!!!
    Thanks to Jane, who suggested it was an ISP issue, Jason, and all at Apple support. dumonj, I'll email you directly. Try this suggestion and see if it helps.

  • Cannot connect 8500a to wireless network

    i input the mac address during wireless network install but cannot connect printer to network

    Do you have MAC filtering enabled?  The printer will not like it plus it is not in the least a security measure.  I recommend disabling MAC filtering and just set the encryption to WPA2 with a strong, 13+ character, passphrase.
    Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

  • Can't connect to Express Guest Network

    I have an Airport Time Capsule connected to my wireless network. I have a new Express (named Catalina Express) connected as well. There is a secure network and a guest network. The guest network does not require a password. The Catalina Express is located in another Building about 80 feet away. It has a very strong signal. Light is green. When in that building I can connect to the secure network but not the guest network even though the guest network also shows a strong signal.
    If I use the Airport Utility, I can see that the express is set up correctly, meaning it has a guest network which doesn't require a password. Here is my network. Everything works fine except the Catalina Express.
    Here is the detail on the Catalina Express:

    I found the problem. Although the Catalina Express had the Guest Network enabled it was getting its signal from another Express that for some reason did not have the Guest Network enabled. So I enabled that and everything seems fine now.

  • Cannot connect macbook to wireless network

    Hey, I wonder if someone can help? I live in the uk & want to connect my nephew's macbook to his home wireless network.
    His network is run off a Windows based pc, I have read in the forums that this is ok. He has a rather old pc that has no wireless card so I have installed a Netgear usb adaptor which runs just fine. The pc can "talk" to the Orange Livebox (Livebox -3660) and the pc can connect well, to the internet via the Livebox. So I have a stable internet connection.
    The problem is that we cannot get the macbook ( a few months old only ) to connect at all to the net!
    On the macbook there is no signal reading at all, airport is scanning for a network,it finds Livebox-3660 ok but when we enter the password the macbook says cannot connect!
    Its curious that there is no signal reading at all on the macbook, yet it is right next to the livebox?
    When I take the macbook home to my house, it connects immediately to my imac....full signal no problems. All systems go...
    I must be missing something obvious ?? The security set up is currently WPA-PSK I dont know if this has a relevance? should I change this to make it more compatible to WPA2 ??
    Much appreciate the help of the good people on this forum.
    Thank you in advance. W

    Sorted it!

  • Yet another iPhone WiFi thread - cannot connect to some OPEN networks

    I make no apologies in starting another thread about iPhone WiFi connectivity. Judging by the number of references to WiFi issues in this forum, as well as on the Internet generally, this is a big issue with many users and yet there seems very little acknowledgement by Apple that there is problem.
    In my case I have a first generation iPhone which works well on most WiFi networks, both open and closed, including my secured network at home, but cannot connect properly with some open networks. I have had this problem while using 1.0, 2.0 and 2.1 firmware.
    Sometimes I get the "Cannot Connect ..." message and sometimes I am able to connect and obtain a good signal and see an IP Address and a Subnet mask, but no Router or DNS address.
    I'll repeat that I talking about open networks, so there is no password issue. In one local cafe, I am unable to connect to a network that I used to be able to connect to routinely. I have talked to the owner, who is another Mac and iPhone user and he assures me that he has not changed any router settings.
    Can anyone offer any suggestions beyond the usual re-setting and re-booting options? Is there something about iPhone MAC addresses or the WiFi signal that certain routers don't like?
    Simon

    This is not a solution to your problems but:
    1- Expecting someone from Apple to respond here is a vain hope. This is a discussion forum for users and you can only expect responses from users. Talk to Apple tech support if you want a response from them.
    2- I saw an item on an iPhone blog page somewhere yesterday saying that Apple was now replacing iPhones with this issue if you took it to an Apple store. Don't know if it's true but it also had a workaround that you could use for your own home network if you were having problems—and I am—and that workaround basically worked for me.
    I turned wi-fi off on the phone and opened Airport Utility on my iMac. I turned wi-fi security OFF and then tried to connect. I actually got a connection straight away, and I noted down the IP addresses and subnet mask data from the DHCP screen in the iPhone's wi-fi network info screen. I then restored wi-fi security on my iMac. Of course that restarts the router and I lost my connection and when it started up again, the IP addresses had changed but the subnet mask had not. I swapped to the Static screen instead of the DHCP screen and edited all 3 IP addresses. That got me my connection back and it has continued to work throughout today. That's the best result I've had so far.
    It seems to me that my iPhone has problems picking up the network data from my home network and I don't know why that is. I was at a friend's last night and tried to connect to his system and it connected straight away. I assume there's something about my settings which is problematic but I don't know what it is but at least now I have a workaround.
    It's possible that something similar is going on for you with the public networks you're having problems with but, unfortunately, the workaround I tried won't work for you in a public network so that's probably not much help.
    You could try taking your phone to an Apple Store and seeing if they exchange it. The blog I read suggested the magic words were "hardware problem". In my case I don't think it's a hardware problem but it may be in yours.
