Connecting to wifi with wap security?

I need help i have the pearl 8130 and the wireless at my office is WAP secured, I can not figure out how to connect to it, the network is not hidden, my laptop picks it up just fine, but the phone cant even find it. I know the ssid and when I enter that in manually it asks what kind of security the nework has wap is not an option.

Were the passwords that your Internet company provided to you text strings (an “ASCII” password), or were they exclusively made up of digits and letters from A through F inclusive (a “hex” password)? The content of the passwords could determine which WEP option would be right for you.
Since the cable company told you that whether the password had a leading zero or not didn’t matter, it doesn’t seem as though we can tell you whether you should add it or not. There’s nothing about WEP itself that requires a leading zero in any of its passwords, so any such requirement would come solely from your Internet provider.
I was able to connect to my old non-Apple DSL router using WEP without quotes, dollar signs, or “0x” prefixes, so I’m not sure that you’d need to do so — it seems as though just the password without the leading zero would be sufficient, if your cable company is correct.
Have you been able to connect your MacBook Pro to other wi-fi networks, to eliminate the possibility of a problem with its AirPort card?

IPad 3 with iOS 6 fails to connect to WiFi with WPA2 and AES - any solutions available?

Hello *,
after upgrading my iPad 3 to iOS 6 it constantly fails to connect to WiFi with WPA2 and AES - hidden or broadcasted SSID - at home and at work because the device does not accept the WPA2 password. This is also the case for my iPhone 4S but both devices did work with WiFi (WPA2 / AES) perfectly with previously installed iOS 5.1.1.
I tried to downgrade to iOS 5.1.1 but it seems to be no longer possible to downgrade for both iPad 3 and iPhone 4S as the certification and signage window for iOS 5.1.1 maybe has been closed by Apple.
Does anyone know about a possible solution to connect to WiFi with WPA2 and AES with iPad 3 / iPhone 4S and iOS 6 upgrade?
Thank you very much for any help and advise.
Best regards from Germany
Matthias

The Holy Mecha of Wifi
Turn router off then on Try turning your wireless router off then back on.
Change or turn off wireless security You may want to try toggling the settings on your wireless router, switching from WPA to WEP or vice versa, or, as a last resort, turning wireless security off altogether. For AirPort routers, this can be accomplished with the AirPort Admin Utility. For other routers, this can usually be accomplished by accessing the router’s configuration page — open a browser and enter the address 192.168.1.1.
Reset network settings on iPad. On your iPad, open Settings, then navigate to “General” in the left-hand pane. Scroll down and tap Reset, then select “Reset Network Settings.” This will delete any stored WiFi passwords and other information, but may result in a more stable connection.
Adjust brightness upward. Oddly, a number of users have found that they can resolve this issue by simply adjusting the iPad’s brightness level upward and off the lowest setting. To do this, tap Settings, then select “Brightness & Wallpaper” from the left-hand pane. Slide the brightness bar upward, then wait 1-2 minutes and check for an improvement in signal strength. Speculation holds that a power delivery issue associated with the screen brightness affects Wi-Fi.
Change thresholds in router settings. Access your routers configuration screen (for most routers, open a browser and enter the address 192.168.1.1), then change the fragmentation threshold and the CTS/RTS threshold as described here. Some users have found success with the settings Fragmentation= 2048, RTS = 512.
Change 802.11 spec on router. Try changing your router’s wireless spec mode from B, G and N to G only or vice versa. For AirPort routers, this can be accomplished with the AirPort Admin Utility. For other routers, this can usually be accomplished by accessing the router’s configuration page — open a browser and enter the address 192.168.1.1.
Switch routers. Although a far-from-ideal solution, some users have found success with switching to a different wireless router.
Turn off “Ask to Join Networks.” To do so, tap Settings on your iPad, then select “Wi-Fi” from the left-hand pane. Slide “Ask to Join Networks” to off. Speculation holds that leaving this option on causes the iPad to constantly seek networks, resulting in some type of interference with the network to which it is connected.
Forget network then rejoin. Tap Settings on your iPad, then select Wi-Fi from the left-hand pane. Choose the network with which you are experiencing difficulty, then select “Forget this network.” Go back to the previous screen and rejoin the network.
Turn off Bluetooth. Some users report that, perhaps due to interference issues, turning off Bluetooth can boost Wi-Fi signal strength. To do so, tap Settings then tap General in the left-hand pane. Tap Bluetooth in the right-hand pane, then slide to off.

Hi ..
Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You may have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.

If I'm connected in wifi with my Macbook, can I share the internet with Iphone? Thanks

If you are asking about the Internet Sharing feature on the Mac, the answer would be that this option is not available for normal wireless, but it might work for BlueTooth. Might be worth a try that way.
However, if the Mac had an Ethernet Internet connection, then you could create your own "private" wireless network to allow wireless devices to connect.

HP Deskjet 3055A does not connect to WIFI with security

I am trying to configure a Deskjet 3055A on my DD-WRT router. I am a highly skilled networking engineer so I know 100% what I am doing.
Firstly, DD-WRT does not support WPS conenction, because these are highly insecure. This means my only method of connecting the pritner to my home network is to connect it to my PC and use the installation utility (dowloaded from your drivers page) I am using version 28.8.
My router supports both 2.4 and 5GHz and I know the printer is only 2.4GHz. I completely disabled the 5GHz network for the purpose of connecting the printer even though it should not have any effect.
I have also rebooted my router, and reset the printers wireless network using its in-built control panel.
Anyway, after a shameful 2 hours troubleshooting, I managed to find out that the printer WILL NOT CONNECT to the WIFI network if any security is applied against it. It works 100% fine with open security however, this is completely unnacceptable.
I have tried both WPA Personal and also WPA2 Personal, both with the same effect.
For the sake of trying, I also added the printer to my open WIFI network and tried to manually edit the WIFI setting through the printers web interface however, whenever I try and access the Wireless setup wizard, I simply get an error saying "Internal System Error" - eventually I managed to get around this other bug that has been there for years (see http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-Networking-and-Wireless/Internal-System-Error-prevents-access-t...
After going through the printers web interface WIFI setup, the issue is still the same and it will not connect.
HP, we were about to order 2500 of these printers for our remote site users. If you do not come up with a quick solution/bug fix, consider the business lost!
Regards
Ian
This question was solved.
View Solution.

After much playing I managed to find a fix for this!
For all users who are unable to find a fix using the other methods, here's what to do.
Change your local network to open security but note down your WIFI setting for your typical setup.
Connect the printer to the open network using the HP software (using a USB cable)
Go to the printer's URL, but ensure you connect using HTTPS - if you get an internal system error, keep refreshing until it works (WHAT A JOKE!!!!)
Click on "Network" on the top, then click on "Advanced" on the left.
Enter the network settings as they should be when secured.
At the bottom, tick "In an infrastructure network, use 802.11b/g behaviour(assuming your netwoek supports g, otherwise use the b only option), then click apply.
Turn your wireless security back on, on your router and then the printer should connect!
I really am baffled as to why this isn't automatically enabled, if the printer doesn't work with wireless security on a Wireless N network, then have this as the default!
HP - feel free to thank me in this post!

I can not connect to wifi with router WRT54G2 v1 with Windows 7

Hi everyone: I have a Linksys WRT54G2 V1 and since I bought my new notebook with Windows 7 I can not access the wifi.
I have another notebooks with Windows Vista and a PC with Windows XP that connect perfectly, but with Windows 7 gives me error when loading the password.
I Update the firmware to version 1.0.04 (this the latest version I found on the cisco site), but still don't work.
I Try chatting with Cisco support and was told he was no longer under warranty ....
Can you tell me how to solve this problem ???
Thank you for your help !!!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Sure, disable security on the router completely for now. Now try to connect with no security. Once done and verified go back and add security back on of WPA2-AES with a new password and try again.

Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

How do i connect to wifi with ipad?

I just recieved my ipad 2. i cannot connect to wifi...help?

Ok so I have been battling with the same issue for a while now and have finally managed to crack it.
I have a Huawei 3G router that has been working for my PC;s and iPhone for a few years now. I then bought an iPad3 (3G and Wifi) and could just not connect it to the wifi network.
Fortunately I have a spare Linksys router (WRT320N) which has a setting to change the Wireless band from 2.4GHz to 5Ghz with 20/40MHz pipe. After changing this no problem iPad could connect.
So now I have 2 wireless networks running with internet connectivity only on the 3G so I plugged a lan cable from the 3G router into the internet port on the Linksys, set the Linksys up with a static internet connection and now I can access the internet via this method on the iPad.
Funny thing is, my iPhone cannot connect to the Linksys my laptop can however. Anyway so now I connect the iPad via the Linksys router and the iPhone via the 3G router.
I think Apple have pretty much messed up with the wireless bands on their products.......it would appear that they don't understand ? If they did they would make it pretty clear and from my efforts to try and sort this out i see there are many people out there, like me, who are laymen and there is no where that this is explained properly.
Most of the installed base of wireless routers I would think are on the 2.5GHz band, I say this beacause there are virtually NO wifi networks out there that I can connect to.
This is a huge frustration and a pretty poor reflection on Apple. So much for MOBILITY!!!!!

IPhone 4 having trouble connecting to wifi with redirect

Hi all,
I was wondering if someone out there can help me. I have an iPhone 4 running 5.0.1. Ever since i upgraded to iOs 5, i have noticed trouble connecting to the wifi at work. At home and school the phone connects perfectly. At work we have a redirect page. When going under safari it just uses my mobile network (which is not that strong). I check the wifi menu and it seems as if it is "trying" to connect...it shows the grey pinwheel spinning next to the correct netowrk but nothing ever happens. I try to "renew lease", i turn off wifi, i reset the phone. Sometimes it connects first try. Other times it takes HOURS. I assumed maybe it was just the network, so i attempted to try to connect my nook, and the nook connects right away. I never touched any settings, but i am very confused on to what may be going on here to explain the type of problem i am having since iOs 5. Thank you in advance.
Jenn

You'll need to provide complete details before anyone will be able to offer suggestions.
For future posts, please don't put a lot of excess characters in the subject line. Just a brief summary of the problem - e.g. "iPhone 3GS with iOS 5.01 cannot connect to WiFi" - will be sufficent. I've asked the Hosts to edit out the superfluous junk.
Regards.

I can't connect to wifi with my iPhone 6

My iPhone 6 will not connect to wifi. I have restarted it, restored network settings. I have shut off the key chain in iCloud.

Hi bgb07,
If you have an issue with your iPhone not connecting to any Wi-Fi networks, and you have already tried restarting the phone and restoring your network settings, I would suggest that you back up any data on your iPhone and restore it as a new device. See this article -
iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Lumia 820 cannot connect hidden WIFI with special ...

Dear all,
I found Lumia 820 could not connect hidden WIFI (non-broadcast SSID) with special configuration. Just as shahidzafar said in Microsoft community (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/winphone/forum/wp8-wpnetwork/nokia-lumia-820-cant-connect-to-hidd...). I face the same issue with his Lumia. Could anyone face the same issue? Do we need to update some patch for Windows system on Lumia? Thanks.
Tianhao.

I have exactly the same problem. Would appreciate some advice.
Please don't suggest changing the settings in the corporate network - this is simply impossible. And unnecessary, as I can judge from the other Windows-phones of my colleagues (not Lumia 820) which CAN connect to the hidden network.
Thanks!

I cannot connect to wifi with ios7. It will not find any network. What do I do?

Ever since I updated to ios7, my iPhone 5 has been having problems connecting to wifi. When I go into Settings, it is unable to find the network at home, at school, in public areas, etc. I know that the internet and wifi work in my house because my fiance is able to find and connect to it on his phone no problem. I tried resetting the network settings but that did not help. What can I do? Apple should fix this if it's a bug with ios7. I've been having SO many problems with this update.

I tried resetting the network settings but that did not help. What can I do? Apple should fix this if it's a bug with ios7. I've been having SO many problems with this update.

Connecting to wifi with wap security?
