FAILING WIRELESS

HIIIIII
i seem to be having some issues with my connecting to my wireless.
all my cables and everything are connected correctly but the "wireless" light on my router isn't lit,
and when i try going through the linksys setup wizard, after running the PC settings check to make sure everything's right,
it asks for a password that i have no clue as to what it is.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
ps. I have a WRT300N Router
- thank you kindly

Forget the wizard and try this.
Using a PC that is directly connected to the router
Open IE and type 192.168.1.1 on the address bar
Leave the username blank and enter "admin" for PW. (no quotes)
Go to Basic wireless settings under Wireless TAB
check SSID broadcast to ENABLED
Save Settings
then check if the wireless LED on the router blinks.
Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is mystery. Today is a gift.

Speedport time out fail wireless

I am connected to ethernet port, no problem.
AirPort fails to connect. Now Windows with two local machines connect ok. My previous Dell connected.
My AirPort works at home, a Bell Modem.
SpeedPort W 700 V seems to have some issues for Win.
The SpeedPort does not reply giving time out same as incorrect password.
I tried a manual connect with full name from my AirPort detection script.
Also problem with iTouch, but it failed to reconnect at home after upgrade to new software.

SpeedPort W 700 V is both wireless and wired. I am connected to wired now.
When disconnected, the wireless shows on AirPort and asks for password. Entering password gives a time out. I tried a manual connection with network name WLAN-4A7D03 selected security type and entered password. Again a time out. The SpeedPort fails to handshake on receiving the password. That is, I do not think the password accepted reply is connecting. My AirPort works on other wireless connection in Canada. I am in Germany and the SpeedPort modem is a few years old, but I had no trouble with my new Dell windows Vista last year.
This could be a SpeedPort issue. I know the SpeedPort wireless is working because two Windows computers are connected to the wireless. I did find reports of some Windows machines having difficulty connecting to SpeedPort but no comment on Apple problems.
By the way thank you for answering. I will be traveling in Italy where most hotels only have wireless connections. So I am trying to isolate problem to SpeedPort. If it is my use of AirPort then I have a problem. If necessary I could buy a USB port wireless.
I do know update of my iTouch has crashed its wireless connection. I tried reset to orignial but it then automatically upgrades and I am back where I started.
These are my first Apple products so I may be missing something. The more I use the Apple Interface the more I like it.

Installations fail: wireless toolkit ,sun1studio for wireless

Hi I am trying to extract the j2me wireless toolkit and I get this error right after responding yes to the license agreement, I am running redhat 9
Do you agree to the above license terms? [yes or no] yes
./j2me_wireless_toolkit-2_0-linux-i386.bin: line 271: uudecode: command not found
Failed to extract JavaVersionTester class
I just switched to redhat nine and I am reinstalling my java development environment
and I have found that the sun studio and jwsd installations also report errors in the install, although they seem to have installed properly

install the sharutils rpm on the third redhat disk, you should be fine

Locating failed wireless login attempts and which access point they're hitting

We have a cisco 5508 WLC with about 190 access points. They use Cisco Secure ACS to authenticate Microsoft Active Directory logins. We sometimes get non-normal accounts attempting to login to our wireless but are unable to figure out which access point they're hitting.
When I look at the failed attempts in our Cisco Secure ACS 5.5 Radius Authentications report, I don't see an IP address, just the MAC address of the failing device. Is their a way to configure either the WLC or the ACS box to report either the IP address or MAC address of the access point they're connecting to?

Is this something I need to set the ACS or WLC to send? When I go to Other attributes in the "Authentications - RADIUS - Today" report, this is all I'm currently seeing.
Other Attributes:
ACSVersion=acs-5.5.0.46-B.723
ConfigVersionId=3
DetailedInfo=Invalid username or password specified, Retry is allowed

PDA only receives UDP data when connected to PC; fails wirelessly

I have a UDP sender on PC, a receive program in PDA running Windows Mobile 5.0.
The wired thing is when I connect the PDA with PC through USB cable, receiver program in PDA works fine; but when disconnected, receiver program does not read UDP data any more.

Here is the Sender program, everytime it runs, it broadcasts a 'T' or 'F' to all addresses.
Here is the receiver program. It is constantly running reading the broadcast message. When PDA is connected to PC, it receives fine; when it disconnects, it does not receive any thing.

[SOLVED] Wireless fails after suspending (Realtek 8192se)

This problem is already solved on the first post: I spent so long trying to solve it that I thought people should know the solution.
I have a Lenovo X100e with a Realtek 8192SE wireless card. I'm running kernel 3.0. The machine has, since upgrading to the 3.0 kernel had the annoying problem of failing wireless connections after suspending: I'll have a running wireless connection, then suspend the machine, and then wake the machine up and the machine cannot connect to any wireless network (perhaps the same one I was connected to before, in the same place).
Things that did not work:
Installing the Realtek drivers from their website
Downgrading the kernel from 3.1 to 3.0
Using wicd instead of networkmanager
Walking around
Other distributions
The solution was to put an entry in /etc/pm/config.d/config:
SUSPEND_MODULES="rtl8192se rtlwifi mac80211 cfg80211"
Now the machine reconnects with no problems.
This may be the solution to the other big problem I was having with the 3.1 kernel: I would suspend the machine by any means and the screen goes black and the machine becomes non-responsive without actually suspending. I may try upgrading to the 3.1 kernel and adding radeon to the SUSPEND_MODULES list above.

Found out more which might be significant for madwifi users:
According to the wiki I loaded the following modules in rc.conf: ath-hal, ath9k, wlan
Beside this one line in the modprobe.conf should be added: alias ath0 ath_pci. This way wicd as well as networkmanager used ath0 for connecting to wireless.
After the update I noticed that there is another wifi device in ifconfig listed: wlan0. So I suspected that 2 devices pointing at the same hardware may cause the instability, but de-activating one by ifconfig didn't help. Now I noticed by loading the modules one by one that the new ath9k is already defining wlan0 and the wireless starts working without loading the module wlan. It looks stable so far, but if I should be right I'm impossibly the only one having this trouble.
Confirmation would be nice, but I will mark this thread "solved" now.

Can't connect to internet wirelessly with WRT120N router

ok, it's nearly 4am and i've been trouble shooting this problem since 11pm... love the technology, but it completely evil...
let me start off by saying i'm not too tech savy. took a couple computer courses in high school and thought it was my passion but they got way above my head in college, so i settled for art (those classes are much easier to pass as long as you draw your homerwork, don't blow up your sculpture etc etc)
anywho, i bought a brand new computer today since i play wow and my old computer was nearing on a decade old and had nearly a dozen manufactury resets from all the viruses from downloaded music. i don't know the make of the new computer (just spent like five minutes looking over the box and it doesn't seem to say) and i literally walked into best buy and walked right up to the computer department store head and said, "which computer should i buy to play wow on for less than $600." he thought for like thirty seconds and pointed to an ASUS and i immediately bought it. took it home, watched tv for a couple hours, then went to set it up since i had a raid in like two hours, thinking, "brand new computer, nothing's gonna go wrong!..."
well it did. my router gives me grief from time to time, so i spent the first hour unplugging, resetting, refreshing (i think that's what the button by the blue lights that has the circling arrows does) and nothing. so then off to the interweb since... oh! this might be important! the one computer i'm on now that has a hardwired connection is running normally, not great, normally. and i just checked my mom's ipad, it's on the network too. my phone, a samsung galaxy s 4 had been connected since i had it, and decided to stop connecting when at least until i noticed i couldn't connect my new desktop and my gf's phone, an iphone 4 wouldn't connect either... in total, i think there's one wired desktop connection, my fail wireless desktop connection, wireless laptop that hasn't been opened in months, an at&t signal booster, an ipad, and 4 phones that connect when they feel up to it. my old iphone 4 i ran on 3g because it was more reliable than my wireless. there's never more than 3 devices running at once. i've seen a few threads mentioning too many devices on one network. could that be it? i hope not. we have comcast as a provider too, if that helps.
oh, and maybe i should describe my problem more clearly. on my phone, when i go to the wifi settings, it still list my network as one i'm linked too, it's just "not in range" and my new desktop can't see it at all. pretty sure it's not a hidden ssid because i connected my phone to it recently and had no probs. also, i'm fairly, but by no means 100%, certain that it's not the wireless card in the computer because i can see a few other networks and my phone had already been on it without giving me problems until earlier today.
if you know how to help, please be thorough in explaining it, and if i need to give more info, i'll try my damnest. please please please!!! help me, i spent all my money on this **bleep** computer and don't have anymore to buy another new router.

Hi there. To start, that blue button that you have been pressing on the router is the Wifi Protected Setup button. You press that button when you want to connect a new wireless device that supports Wifi-Protected Setup to connect to the wireless internet via your wireless router without having to enter anything on the new wireless device. So it means, you did not reset the router. I would like to verify with you though because it is not clear to me (sorry), how do you want your new desktop computer to work? Wirelessly or with Ethernet cable plugged-in? If it is for wireless, you will only need to connect the computer’s wireless connection to the router wireless network and to enter the wireless password if you have wireless security enabled on the router. Also, the router should be able to provide simultaneously internet connection to multiple devices – be it wired or wireless. Sometimes the reason why the wireless would not work is when there is wireless interference in the area that you will need to change its wireless channel to something else. To have wireless security enabled on the router is helpful as well in making sure that the router will provide a better connection speed.

Macbook pro wireless stop responding when s/pdif port in use

Macbook pro 15 i7 user here. Have anyone experience the same issue as me? how do i resolve this issue?
it stated airport detected wireless but it just dont issue DHCP ip address out. using VLC to run mkv video format.
video runs fine however not the wireless.:(

I'm guessing you mean that the computer is not receiving a DHCP address, rather than that it is not sending one, when outputting sound through the optical "side" of the sound out port ? Or do you mean that you are using your MBP as a de facto wireless base station and DHCP server for other devices, and that they are not receiving addresses from it when you have the MBP hooked up through the optical digital component of the sound out port?
Winthur> sorry, i should say my MBP is not RECEIVING an ip address. my bad
My MBP is connected to MyHome network but not getting an ip from my direct router when connecting through wireless; when i am using S/PDIF connection from the MBP combo 3.5mm jack to my digital z5500 speaker.
Do things (whichever you intend) work normally when using the sound out port's analogue mode?
Winthur> All things work great (the S/PDIF digital sound out via VLC) ACCEPT that i cant surf net(when my S/PDIF port in use movie playing via VLC or whichever prog). it just dont get any ip, it got a self assigned ip instead. (rem the airport is connected in yellow state)
Is there any possible that the equipment you are outputting the optical signal to itself is producing interference in the relevant wireless spectrum, either because of proximity to your wireless router or the MBP (if it is the router itself in this case) , or, possibly, simply poor shielding on whatever router you happen to be using?
Winthur> i am not sure of this but i am not using any wireless speakers and such. it is a direct Toslink cable (with one end 3.5mm converter) to my z5500 speaker. oh 1 tricky issue i notice is, i do have a HP AP connected to my WRT160N v2 router port. so when i switch the failed wireless connection to connect to internet via this HP AP (from MyHome network to MyAP network SSID), it work.(manage to grab an ip and connect to internet.) but when i switch back to connect wirelessly to my direct router (MyHome network), it failed gettng ip again. Both scenerios are with S/PDIF VLC in use with movie playback)
If you aren't using the MBP as the router itself (ie. your problem is scenario 1 in my first paragraph) then what brand of router is it, and what sort of wireless protocol and security are you using?
Winthur> using WRT160N v2 with 2.0.02 firmware. i know there is a new firmware out there 2.0.03 but is there really a possibility of firmware issue? i tried to flash once and the whole router went dead. manage to revive though. wireless protocol i am not sure but the security is WEP. both my router and my HP AP uses WEP
(Sorry about that rather prolix set of questions! I guess, fundamentally, I'm asking for more information about just what your set-up is here, and just what the problem is! )
Winthur> Glad you ask as i dont know what kind of info i should give to ask for help. in the nutshell:
-i have a WRT 160N V2 firmware 2.0.02 router.
-i have a HP AP connect to this router.
-Router SSID is MyHome network
-HP AP SSID is MyAP network
-both uses WEP
-both network can be "interswitch" without problem in surfing the internet without S/PDIF in use
-problem in getting IP from MyHome network (airport turns yellow) when S/PDIF in use
-Switch to MyAP with S/PDIF in use no problem.
-when S/PDIF unplugged, switch to MyHome network, can be use again.
appreciate your prompt reply.
Best Reg
Winthur.

X100e - Wireless is on and not working

Hi guys,
I am completely new to the forums and to thinkpads. I have had my think pad for 2 months. Till yesterday everything was working well, until I decided to update the drivers. After it the wireless stoped working. Problem is exactly the same as:
http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-Edge/Wireless-apparently-active-but-not-working/m-p/280548
However, the solution does not work for me. All my drivers are up to date. I did reinstall the Realtek driver, access connections and updated bios without any luck. Clicking repair does not solve the problem. The wireless is not shut off in the BIOS. Do you guys have anything in mind?

Open the Device Manager (filename: DEVMGMT.MSC), remove the wireless adapter, then reboot and let Windows re-detect it.
Let us know the results of the above, and we can proceed from there.

Thinkpad Edge E15 302-45U Wireless Connection Issue

I had to do a fresh install of windows 7 professional. Everything is working aside from the wireless connection. I've downloaded each wireless driver and still the issue persists. I can see the connection being broadcasted, upon entering the password to connect I only get "windows was unable to connect to xxx".
I can connect to this wireless point from my phone and my other laptop plus no one else in the office is having this issue. Only on this Thinkpad am I having the problem.
If I try to use the Intel PROSet/Wireless Tools diagnostics I get a FAILED-Wireless Hardware is not bound to transport driver. I've tried everything at this point with no luck. The LAN works fine of course but I need the Wireless to work.
Thanks
Solved!

Nothing?

WRT54GL randomly disconnect wireless connection.

I just brought WRT54GL to replace old SMC router. after I setup It work perfect for both wired and wireless. but when I test on server application. It fail wireless connection randomly disconnect when computer is idle for 5-10 secs. so my application closed and I need to start it again. I didn't found this problem on my old SMC router before. My router is WRT54GL f/e 4.30.11 (I try 4.30.2 and DD-WRT special all have the same problem) connect as access point to lan and Billion ADSL modem. and I use Only Modem as DHCP servers. I search through this forums. and try adjust MTU to 1300, try upgrade f/w, try to disable router firewall and windows XP firewall. nothing worked. Is it a problem is this model? or only mine. nd what can I do to make router always maintain wireless connections? thanks!

try changing the wireless settings
ssid - any unique name
channel - either 1 or 11
beacon interval - 50
fragmentation threshold - 2306
RTS threshold - 2307
check whether it makes any difference..

Phone works fine but iTunes keeps asking me to set up or restore it

Hi, I have a 4S and iTunes has stopped allowing me to manage it following a failed wireless sync. Now whenever I plug it in to my Mac Mini it shows me the screen which gives you the options of either setting it up or restoring it from a backup. I have restored it from both the last backup and the previous backup and after the restore process the phone works fine still, but when I plug it back into the Mac, iTunes just shows me the same "setup or restore" screen. So now I'm unable to manage my videos, podcasts and music. I can still use my phone, I just can't get iTunes to do anything with it.
NB my phone wasn't and never has been jailbroken, and is running IOS 5.0.1. The Mac Mini is running OSX 10.6.8 and the latest version of iTunes at the time of writing. Any suggestions and advice most gratefully received.
Thanks in advance,

HP officejet 6100 eprinter not recognizing networks

I have tried resetting and factory reset on the printer, plugging and unplugging in all possible combinations, updating firmware and . The printer will work on the MacBook when connected to the Airport Express. The Ipad Air will not see it at all. The windows 8.1 lenovo will not see it on the network, but will work with USB. The printer will not find any SSIDs (there are two available). The Wireless Network Test shows:
Wireless on PASS
Wireless Working PASS
Signal Quality - Not Run
Network Name (SSID) Found - FAIL
Wireless Networks Detected - 2
IP Address - Not Applicable
Those seem the most important, most other items on the diagnotics read Not Run.
This used to work on the old network fine with a different name fine, but on the new network not at all.
Help, please?
Jay

Hello jjjames,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue with connecting the printer to the wireless network.
First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
I then suggest that we run the HP Print and Scan Doctor. If the Doctor fails, please let me know of any error codes or messages that may pop up.
Thanks for your time.

HT4061 I have an iphone 3gs - the new ios 6.1 (?) upgrade has inabled my phone. I get a white apple on the screen. can't reset phone - doesn't work. what can I do besides take phone into Apple?

I have an iphone 3gs - yes, an older iphone.
This morning apple had a msg that asked if I wanted to upgrade to the new ios 6.1 (?). I said yes. Now I can't use my phone. I've tried hitting the power and other buttons. I get a white apple on the screen. can't reset phone - doesn't work. what can I do besides take phone into Apple? This *****! I realize (now from reading internet) that my phone/system may be uncompatible. Help!

I have a 3GS (a true classic design!) and have upgraded it to 6.1 today. The process did not go without a glitch - it took a few attempts to get the app's to sync but after detecting the ones causing an issue and deleting them it works - so far! I have had issues about 50% of the numerous times a new OS is uploaded to this phone and always take the new OS with trepidation. But at least you know there is a 3GS with 6.1 working OK.
I suggest you do a fresh restart to the phone several times - without it being connected to the computer - to see if it gets its act together and starts. I think it will. Hold down the top 'power' button and front round control button until it shuts down - goes blank and dead. Then press the top power button to re-activate - reboot - it.
If that does not work then plug into your itunes computer, navigate in iTunes to see your iPhone and hopefully you will be able to sync it or at least 'restore iPhone' from the 'summary' tab.
If you can not get onto the iphone perhaps you will still be able to sync if in iTunes by going - 'file' - 'devices' - 'sync iphone' or failing that try transfer purchases' and ultimately 'restore from back-up'.
I had technical problems with my old 3GS (suffered a failed wireless antenna) so I took it to an Apple Store and they issued me with a service-replacement/reconditioned phone for a very modest charge. So if worst come to the worst get a new phone that way!

WPA2 enterprise, Can not authenticate with ACS

Hi, I am setting up WPA2 enterprise for wireless users with PEAP authentication, but can not get authentication server to authenticate them, and failed reason is generic "EAP-TLS or PEAP authentication failed during SSL handshake"
The AP I am using is 1240AG running 12.3(8)JA, Radius server is ACS 4.0, I don't have any problem to get dot1x with PEAP authentication working for wired access, and I have almost identical client side configuration for wired and wireless user.
From ACS's point of view, it should not be aware of any difference between wired and wireless user, but ACS log shows otherwise:
1)AP is connected to a cat4k switch, I suppose AP should be the authenticator for wireless users, but ACS "failed attempts" log for attempted wireless user shows that the NAS IP is cat4k in stead of AP, why?
2)I am using the same laptop for both wireless/wired testing, ACS "failed attempts" log shows that for wired user, it correctly interpreted cached domain\login name, but for failed wireless user, the user-name field is totally different, yet debug on AP clearly shows that correct domain\login has been received by AP.
Debug output on AP is attached, hope experts here can quickly identify the problem.

Got it working by adding radius server configuration under GUI generated configuration:
aaa group server radius your-AAA-group-name
server your-radius-server#1-IPaddress auth-port 1645 acct-port 1646
