I cant connect to my router wirelessly but I can connect...

I cant connect to my router wirelessly but I can connect directly, Is there anything I can do about this?

does the wired computer get an ip address from the router ?? check whether it pings the router's ip add ( default ip add - 192.168.1.1 )

Hub 3 cant connect to Apple Products wirelessly

Just had to change my hub as it kept dropping out but the new one will not allow any of my apple products to connect wirelessly. Spoken endlessly to BT tech dept on about the 4th person and hours later someone altered my channel to 11 and said this should work it did momentarily but now wont and I still cannot connect. Tried everything, turning and resetting hub, resetting apple network settings but nothing seems to work and ideas...? thanks

you could try a factory reset of the hub but there is no real reason for your devices not to connect to the hub

I cant connect to the home share with my airport extreme

When I connect the apple tv or open itunes the apple extreme shuts down and restarts. And i cant connect.

I bought 2 (32gig) ipod touches last week and have a strange problem with the wif fi dropping out. One of the ipod's works perfectly with great range and little drop out, the other identical ipod touch continuously drops the wireless signal and I keep having to log on constantly, which is a real pain as I am using the ipod for home automation and media control. Has anyone any ideas here please ?

Can't get Canon MP620 to work wirelessly with MacBook Pro or AirPort

I bought a Canon MP620 printer at the Apple Store. I specifically asked if it would work wirelessly with my MacBook Pro or AirPort Express since I read comments to the contrary on here. I was assured it would work without a problem and I wouldn't need to upgrade to AirPort Extreme. My Mac is not able to find my printer. Does anyone have any suggestions? I did all of the troubleshooting and nothing works. I have another printer plugged into my AirPort Express so I can't plug this one in (was told at Apple Store that I wouldn't need to).

Hi magcat72,
As BDAqua has mentioned already, you need to configure the wireless network settings first. This is done by connecting the Mac directly to the printer via USB. But before you do this, stick the MP620 CD into your Mac and install the drivers and the Canon IJ Network utility. Once these have been added to the Mac, you can then connect the 620 to the Mac. This should automatically add the printer to your printer list (in Print & Fax). If it doesn't, then you can add the printer manually, by clicking the + and using the Default view.
Once you have the printer queue installed, you can open the queue and click the Utility icon. This will display the MP620 connected via USB. Select it and then click the Network button. This will now guide you through connecting the MP620 to your wireless network.
Once you have completed the network configuration for the printer, you can turn it off and unplug the USB cable from your Mac. You can then move the printer to where you want it to reside and turn it back on again.
Now you need to add the network printer queue, as the previous queue was for direct USB. In fact, to save you selecting the wrong printer, delete the current MP620 from your list by using the - (minus) button.
To add the network printer queue, select to Add a printer and then select More Printers. In the top menu you should see Canon IJ Network. Select this and after a short while the printer should appear with its MAC address (a series of numbers and letters separated by colons) in the lower pane. Select the 620 and click Add.
Now you should be ready to print. If any of the above doesn't work for you then please reply.

Cant connect on xbox 360 chat with my friend

i cant connect with just one of my friends on xbox 360 is there like a gaming mode i change to make so i can?

Ok we have done everything we can think of on our WRT54G router including
Set static IP address on the xBox
Enabled DMZ with xBox static IP address
Port forwarding NOT enabled
MTU at 1364
QoS "Highest" for Mac address of Xbox 360
Security , "Filter IDENT (Port 113)" is the only one checked
Upgraded firmware
and either hard wired or wireless connected get "Can't connect to the Xbox LIVE Party."
every thing else works fine.
Only way it works is to connect the xBox directly to the DSL Modem
Any help?

Issue in connecting to the internet wireless with my Linksys

OK. Here's the deal. I am entirely frustrated and also over my head trying to solve this on my own as I have no idea what I'm doing.
I have a Mac Powerbook, OS X (3.9). I have always connected to the internet wirelessly through my Linksys router (Wireless B Access Point, Model Wap 11).
I have recently moved and now use Comcast for my internet. When they installed my internet, I had not yet unpacked my wireless router, so I was set up to be connected via the actual cable plugged in. Now that the router is all set up, I cannot for the life of me get my wireless to work. Currently, I can use the internet wirelessly in other homes/school no problem. In those cases, I don't do anything, I just turn on my computer and it connects automatically. But for some reason in my apartment I cannot make it work.
I *think* the problem lies somewhere in the IP address area? If I look at my Airport settings and go to the TCP/IP tab, there is no information contained on the screen. Meaning, in the area where it says IP Address, Subnet Mask and Router, there is NO data listed, just gray empty space. The same goes for the DNS Servers and Search Domains areas, but at least in that case there is a white box to input text.
I can choose the "Configure IPv4 Using DHCP Manually" and that will let me input numbers, but I have no idea if I should even be playing around with this.
Also, perplexing me even more, is the fact that I can choose my Linksys internet connection through the Airport screen, and when I have selected it, I show full bars. But I can't actually connect.
Silly me, I attempted to call Comcast for help with the issue, but they say that as long as I can connect to the internet in any way (plugged in) then they do not care that I can't connect wirelessly.
I miss checking my email in bed...someone please help!!!
Thanks a million in advance for any and all help.

Are u talking about routers username , password? Well there is one routers username ,password (default is "admin") and the other is your cable ISP username , password (on the routers webpage). I am talking about the latter. If nothing works, try resetting your router ... You will have to configure it again (doesnt take much time if you know it).

I cant connect to my cisco router with a computer using wireless...

When ever i try and connect to my wireless router is says, "This network is marked as Hidden and is either out of range or this computers settings dont match the router".
This is driving me crazy i just want to use my internet...
Please help me, ye i know how to get into my router setting using the default gateway i just need to know what to change...

Log on to your router and go to wireless. Enable ssid. If it is showing Linksys, change it to something else. Now click on Wireless security and write down all the settings. Make sure they match the ones in your computer under wireless connections.

HP 3050 - Cant Connect To Anything Via Wireless

I am very baffled as to what is going on this is how my computers are connected....
My main PC is connected to my router via an ethernet cable
My 2 laptops are connected via wireless
They arn't in a network so to speak as in they see and share files they just use the router to connect to the internet now my PC I got is working fine so it sends info to the router via Ethernet and bang printer prints via wireless, Now for my laptop I installed the CD software V 22.5.0 according to the disc. I went through the set-up and wanted to connect wireless so I followed the screen prompts used the USB cable to install device drivers and though the next screen see's my printer and network name it will not connect at all says it cant find it to actually connect to it.
I turned off the windows firewall on the laptop thinking that could be it but no I even went into the screen where I can manually type the IP address of the printer and it still wont find and connect to it, for router is a Netgear DGN2000 with the latest firmware I have set it up so that all the hardware I know thats connected has a IP address reserved so everything gets the same address all the time.
I even tried to get into the printer via IP address in IE9 but it wont even connect to it even searching in Add Printer it wont see my model even though the software is installed unless I keep it connected via USB to keep drivers on
Can anyone help because I have seriously tried for days
This question was solved.

I did the ping to the printer from the laptop and it cam back 4 packets sent 4 recieved
Hi,
That means nothing wrong with "seeing" each other (asuming the printer can also ping the laptop). I'm chatting with my network people now (using communicator). Hope he can have some thoughts. I will update this.
Updated: He was saying why you selected to use USB to install on laptops ( I followed the screen prompts used the USB cable to install device drivers ) ? You need that printer driver and its wireless utility. Should be on the CD.

Using iPhone wireless with MacBook

Is there a way to connect my iPhone to my MacBook and use the phone's wireless 3G connection when not in a wifi area?

This is called tethering and is not currently supported.
AT&T has indicated they may support tethering with the iPhone sometime this year and if so, probably sometime after firmware update 3.0 is released this summer. And if so, it probably won't be included with the unlimited data plan for the iPhone. For phones that support tethering, AT&T charges an additional monthly fee for the option.

Problem connecting to Home Hub 2 with a Kindle Fir...

My parents have just bought a Kindle Fire HD and I'm helping them set it up, but I'm having to do it via Skype video because I live a long way away. This is their only wifi device; their PC is connected to their Home Hub 2 via Ethernet cable.
They've got wifi connectivity, but when they try to access the internet on the Kindle they always get directed to the BT Fon login page. Would I be correct in thinking that this is because they're actually connected to *somebody else's* Home Hub 2 in the same street? My parents left the SSID of the Home Hub as the factory default, and that's what they looked for in the list of available networks, so presumably one of their neighbours also has a Home Hub 2 and also hasn't changed the SSID?
Solved!

OK, interesting. So each hub broadcasts two separate SSIDs? I'm sure they said they were connecting to "BTHomehub2-NHRR"
Yes, that is the case, unless they opted out of BT wifi/FON. If they never intend to use any of the free BT hotspots when away from home, then opting out will remove those extra SSIDS.
The automatic connection to BT FON is a common problem. On most devices there is an option to "forget" the BT FON/BT wifi connections, and the device should not re-connect to them.
See if you can get them to do that first, then try and reconnect to BTHomehub2-NHRR, entering the wireless key when prompted.
Do they have any other wireless devices connected to the home hub 2?

Cant connect to airport over wireless network

Hi all, I hope you can help.
I can't connect to my wireless network?
I have a netgear wireless modem (brand new today), if I connect my mac via ethernet i can use the web but not via wireless.
When I try to connect to a wireless network, it asks me for the WPA2 security code which I type in and it always fails to connect.
I looked in the airport utilities and tried to scan for devices but it would not show up my modem?
A bit of back ground to this problem. Yesterday I was using my old wireless net work. Netgear Modem connected to an AirPort Express Base Station with 802.11n and AirTunes. I have had this for a few years and has worked ok up until yesterday. I had an issue with my xbox 360 not being able to connect to my wireless network after an update so their Tech people told me to add the xbox mac code to my base station. I went into the airport utility and scanned for my base station and it appeared. I typed in the code and clicked ok. It then dissapeared from my airport utility and would not appear even when I scanned for it. Funny enough the xbox was connected but although I could see my network, my mac and 2 other PCs i have could connect?)
Any ideas as I can't suss this out.
Cheers

Try temporarily disabling any wireless encryption on your Netgear wireless modem/router. Can your Mac connect wirelessly now? If not, what is the model of your Netgear?
I looked in the airport utilities and tried to scan for devices but it would not show up my modem?
The AirPort Utility will only work with AirPorts or Time Capsules, not other vendors' products. Most non-AirPort router use web-based administration ... so you would have to use Safari or another web browser to access the Netgear.
