E71 not connecting to BT Homehub router!

I'm new to this forum, and I'm getting a real stress on due to this problem I'm having. I have a homehub which I have superuser rights to, I have set it up dozens of times and know it inside out. I have set up all of the user account names for the hub and know all of the passwords. The hub works fine with all of my XP systems, all the house PC's and laptops connect to it fine with a WEP key.
Now here's the problem, when I try and connect with my E71, it connects fine but then shows the:-
"Welcome...
Congratulations on purchasing this speedtouch residential gateway.
To connect to the internet, you have to login as a more privileged user."
And it gives the option to sign on as a different user.
When I try this, I enter an account name for the router, and it comes back "authorisation failed. Try again?". I have created new accounts with admin rights, WAN admin rights, standard user, all sorts but all fail.
I have tried a hard reset on the router and even with no security setup it still comes up with this page, I am losing the will to be patient with this phone, and I really want it to work as I love the phone, but the I have 5 days longer to return it if I'm not happy, and I'm seriously considering it as I just can't see what elsecould be wrong with the setup!
Please help, I will be eternally grateful...
Many thanks in advance :womanmad:

Hi SJ,
Yes the router is set up to allow new stations automatically, I can see the phone is connected to the router under the wireless section of the router status. All looks fine apart from the phone not realising that it is authenticated.

Why does my Airport Express say "self assigned IP address"? No IP address for the ethernet, and it is not connecting to my cable router any longer...

Why does my Airport Express say "self assigned IP address"? No IP address for the ethernet, and it is not connecting to my cable router any longer...

Some cable providers.....like mine, a well known company......seem to take anywhere from a few moments to sometimes up to 30 minutes to allow their equipment back at the cable company to fully reset and issue a new fresh connection.
So, it would not hurt to leave things powered down for 15-20 minutes or more when you perform the reset that John Galt suggests.

I have an iphone 4s, and i can not connect to any wirless router through wifi??

i have an iphone 4s and i can not connect to any wirless router using wifi, the only way it to put it in the freezer for a few minutes and the i only get like 5 minutes of wifi time and the the connection drops again and the phone can not even recognize the network??
any help??!!

Seriously...and where did you get this tech tip? You do realize that all iPhone 4S's are still under warranty, although there's a very good chance your freezer trick has tripped a moisture sensor, thus voiding your warranty. Make an appointment at an Apple store, but be prepared for bad news. Good luck.

I have a new HP Photosmart Premium that does not connect to our ATT router we use for 2

We just purchased a new HP Photosmart Premium to work on our ATT wireless router with two laptops. It does not connect to our ATT wireless network with the error "No filtering" FAIL indications. Why?

There could be several reasons for this.
Let's try this: cycle power on the router, let it restart a couple of minutes then try it again.
If that does not work, we may need to adjust some settings in the router. ISP supplied routers are not the best.....

MacBook not connecting to home wifi router only

I may be going completely mad, but this morning my black MacBook 13inch just lost connection with my home wifi signal all of a sudden. My iMac, iBook G4, iPhone all continue to work normally. I thought it was my Airport card which may be faulty. I get the SSID signal, but when I type in the WPA string, it would just time out. I tried unenabling security on my router, but still cannot connect with the MB.
I took it into the Apple Store, to see a Genius, and managed to connect to the Apple store wifi with no problem, so it seems its not the Airport Card. Saw the Genius and he reset my PRAM, reconfigured the Network settings etc.
Got home, and same thing, still cannot connect to the home wifi.
I think there's a conflict somewhere between the router and the my MacBook, any ideas?
Could it be the latest 10.6.5?

I just had a similar problem unexpectedly occur. I have 2 MacBooks (both 10.6.5) on the same network - G only. One Macbook can no longer connect to our wireless, but the other is still working normally. The Macbook that can not connect to the home network can still connect to a neighbors unprotected wireless. Also 2 iphones can no longer access the wireless connection. I'd happily blame the cable modem, but one MacBook has no problems. Any ideas?

PLEASE HELP! ETHERNET CABLE IS NOT CONNECTING PROPERLY WITH FIOS ROUTER

I recently purchased a time capsule to use in conjunction with my mac. When I am prompted to connect the ethernet cable from the lan port on my fios router to the wan port on the tc, the cable will not connect properly to the lan port on the tc. If I connect it from the lan on the fios router to the lan on the tc the green indicator lights up to indicate a connection but this does not help the wan port situation. I am able to locate the network I created from my mac but this tc network is not connected to the internet as indicated by the amber blinking light on the front of the tc. Also since creating this non working tc network, my fios signal is almost non existant! I am new to all of this so any help at all would be greatly appreciated!!!

Don't worry about the cable. For now.
Set the TC to bridge mode.. In bridge there is no wan port.. so you can use any port on the TC.
Test with the TC plugged in FIOS.. use in turn all the ports to see if it will work.
Do not change any setting but bridge the TC from default.. ie do not set extend wireless.. that will totally foul it up. Do not use join wireless, that will triple foul it up. Absolute default.. set TC to bridge... plug into the FIOS.. ethernet to any port that the light goes on.
Do a snapshot of the TC setup from airport utility and post.

OfficeJet 6310xi will not connect to DLink 614 Router

The 6310 will print when attached to any of my PCs however when I plug it into the router I have no connection. That is to say the NIC and the router are not showing any connection lights. I've tried to manually set the IP and plug/unplug the printer, and followed the users Manuel with no luck. I've also tested the cable/router port by connecting to another PC and it works fine. The NIC on the printer will show activity (read lights work) but when you plug it into the router the lights on the printer NIC go out. Finally, I've tried resetting the printer to factory defaults thinking that would work but it didn't. Any recommendations would be great b/c at this point I just want to network the printer.
Thanks

IPhone 4 (7.1.2) - Wifi not connecting if distance to router is more than 2 meters

Hi -
Please help me with solutions or suggestion with the wifi connecting problem I have with my iPhone 4.
Currently my iPhone 4 is on Version 7.1.2. Till last week, it worked really fine and used to connect to wifi router from around 20-30 meters distance also.
But suddenly it is not able to connect through with little distance over 2 meters. Not sure what went wrong. I tried Network reset also which did not helped.
To mention here, around 2 weeks back I had an issue with charger and it caused phone to heat to some extent. So I replaced the charger and everything is fine.
I tried freezing also which did not worked.
Currently wifi is working and showing up network only within 2 meters range.
Please help me with the solution
Thanks

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.

Tbox not connecting to internet via router

I installed the new Tbox this week. Once installed, I connected to my wireless FrtizBoz router and all was working fine. I went online and registered for Presto and after a short time Presto was available and we watched a couple of movies. The next day it was working fine into the afternoon but that evening we could not access Presto. A warning indicated no internet connection available and when I went to setup there was a red cross shoing no router connection. My home computer network and my Blueray player all access the internet via the same router and all are functioning correctly with full intenet access. When I go to the wifi setup, I see my router in the list, I can attemt to reconnect and I see the password I had entered previously. I tried rebooting the TBOX, the Router and re-entering the password but I cannot get the connection to work any more. The wifi hardware is obviously operating as it can list the available routers (and mine is listed), but continues to give error of no internet access when attempting to connect. This thing lasted 24 hours and stopped. Nothing was changed in the router or the TBOX in that period. Any help much appreciated. please email [email protected] Regards David

Is this the reset where you press the reset button 5 times? In this case, will I need to set up the Presto accont user names and password again? The Router (FrtixBox) is sitting in the kitchen about 3m from the TBOX. The other 45 wifi devices are scattered around the house and all working perfectly fine. When you say to use another wifi channel, do you mean I remove the router (I must disconnect it from internet to be able to plug into a computer) and then plug it into LAN port of computer and run the setup to change the channel in the router itself? If I do this, will the passwords set up on the other 5 devices still be valid for the new channel when I plug the trouter in again?

HP Officejet 8500A Plus will not connect to router.

A couple month ago I had this printer up and running on my network fine. I use a Cradlepoint MBR1200B router with a Verizon wireless aircard. We took the printer out of the office while we were remodeling, we went to go back and hook it up after the remodel was complete. Now it will not connect back to our router. It's weird the printer will connect fine to my other verizon hotspot, but not the cradlepoint router with usb modem. We have an Officejet 6500 upstairs that is connected to the cradlepoint and is working great.
I have tried what seems like everything from resetting the network setttings on the printer to default and tweaking the security on the cradlepoint from WPA2 to WPA/WPA2. Still nothing.
Also when I choose to print a test report after getting the error on the printer it prints out a sheet that says.
"More that one access poiint/wireless rougter has been foun that mathes your wireless network name (SSID). IF this is not inteded, your HP printer may connect to the wrong wireless network. If you cahne your network name you will need to configure the SSID on all wireless devices to match you new newwork SSID."
The only wireless network we have in the house is the cradlepoint router???? We have the hotspot too, but that is not even turned on. Even so the SSID's for them are not even remoteley similar.

I can't connect to the router in my home. Things were working fine as usual - I attended school and connected to their WiFi network as usual. When I returned home I could not connect to my own home router. The Ipad seeks the network but nothing happens

I can't connect to the router in my home. The Ipad seeks the network but nothing happens. I went to school and connected to their WiFi network as usual with no problems. When I returned home I could not connect to my home router. The Ipad seeks the router number but nothing happens. I rebooted the Ipad a few times in the school. The numbers identifying the router, etc. on my Ipad no longer appear there.
TThe Ipad guide says to connect to the WiFi use setup but I can't find the setup program in the Ipad.
I reset the network settings to the factory defaults but this doesn't fix the problem.
What can I do to reconnect to my home router?

Some things to try first:
1. 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.
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
