Helix Wifi does not connect to wifi when 3g is connected

This might be strange. Since the latest update of wifi drivers (dec 2013) the wifi does not automatically connect if there is a 3G connection. So 3G Connects automatically and wifi does not.
If I then conect to both, 3G still has preference over wifi. This should be the other way round.
May be this is a generic Windows 8.1 issue?
Thanks,
Ruud

Connect the Modem to the router on the Internet Port and the computer to the Router on the Ethernet Port...reset the router for 30 seconds,power cycle the router and then,try to open the setup page by typing 192.168.1.1 in the address bar.

Bought a new Ipod touch and the WiFi does not connect. Tried Reset and total Restore, does not connect to Router on DHCP, tried Static manually and still can not get it to connect even though it registers as connected.

Bought a new Ipod touch and the WiFi does not connect. Tried Reset and total Restore, does not connect to Router on DHCP, tried Static IP, Subnet, Router and DNS manually and still can not get it to connect even though it registers as connected. Using Airport for router, latest firmware, no problems with Iphone 4 or Macbook Pro or any other internet devices. After total Restore (factory settings) tried again, showed connected to router, but does not display "check" next to router but little rotating icon even though the wifi range signal shows connected at full strength and it says it is connected. Just can't seem to get it to generate an IP. Any solutions other than turning it on and off again? Not a Merry Christmas morning.

Ok, so, a couple of things: Denisefromwaleska and I have the exact same size/type/color iPod. Now wishing I'd bought the black one maybe...
Second, Airport is an Express and I have a second one that I carry with me when I travel. Tried to connect my Airport Express to the internet and could not although the iPod did recognize the router and tried to connect to the internet for some time, unlike my previous problem. Updated firmware on my travel router, still could not connect to the internet. Going to try to set up a manual Static IP on the travel router here in a few and conect through it although I predict the problem will persist. Back on the Christmas Present Airport Express router, it is back in play and working fine for all devices save the iPod.
Thanks again for all your help, hopefully I can get a solution in place soon,

Ipad mini does not connect SOME wifi

My iPad mini does not connect some wifi. I tried all instructions like resetting settings, on-off router, manuel configuration but it is still same. I am using same router at my home and with same confiqs, it is connecting there, other iPads, iPhones are also connecting to wifi here, It also connects some other wifi's.
I've read that there is no solution, I have to change it.
Do you have any other idea? Because here-Turkey- it is not easy to do it like USA.

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

TS1398 iPhone 4 does not connect automatically and does not remember wifi password

After being idle for a while, my iPhone 4 goes off wifi and when I am connecting manully, the phone does not remember the wifi password. I have a iPhone 3 and 5 where this is not a problem. Can this be linkes to the phone company you use? The iPhone 4 has a different phone company than the other phones. Can anyone help please?

Hi Damien,
Thanks for your reply.
I had not created 2 separated wireless network. The airport extreme has had create wireless allowing it to be extended and the airport express has had it to extend since day 1.
The only device that does not connect to the airport express when it is far from the airport extreme here is the iPhone 4. I've tested 2 Windows based computers, 2 Macs, 1 Samsung TV and 1 Android phone and they all are able to connect to the airport express when the signal from the airport extreme is weak (please take a look on the screen shots on the original post).
The screenshots of the 2 devices' wireless set up can be found below:
Airport Extreme
Airport Express
I have seen other people here on the Apple discussions complaining about the same issue with their iPhone 4 and iPad: would it be a iOs problem?
Regards
Gilson

Did you already try to reset the iPod by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data.
If this does not work, try to reset the network settings in Settings/General/Reset. After that you'll have to put in the passwords for all known networks again.

Macbook Pro 13" (Late 2013) does not connect to Wifi

Hi,
I just bought a new macbook pro 3 days back. It was working fine till it suddenly dropped connection to the home WiFi. Since then it shows a list of wifi options including the one that i was connected to but does not connect to it. The error message says that the computer cannot connect to the wifi. and asks me to run diagnostics
I have done the following
Run Diagnostic
Switched the wifi off and on
Restarted Mac
Deleted the network from the preferred list and tried to join again
Tried to manually enter the details of the wifi
Switched the router and modem off and on again
Any help would be really appreciated. It's just been 3 days with the mac and I wasn't expecting this.
regards,
ss

Does this connect to other WiFi networks?
As for the problematic WiFi network, see if  > System Preferences > Network > select the WiFi network in the left column > Assist Me... and see if the Assistant and the Diagnostics options can provide any insight into the connectivity problem.
Failing that, take the MacBook Pro back into the folks at the Apple Store and have them take a look at it, and see if it'll connect to the WiFi network there.

IMac does not connect to wifi on boot

I own an iMac and run it with OS X 10.7.5. Ever since system update 10.7.3 (February 2012) my mac more often than not does not connect to wifi on boot. I have to select diagnostics and connect manually. I did a design of experiment and have now discovered that I do not have this problem if I wait about a minute to log in after the login prompt displays. I like my mac for it's fast startup. It is a shame to have to wait unecessarily for it to connect to wifi before logging in. I kenw this was a problem with the system update and this confirms it. Does anyone know how to prevent this from happening so I don't have to wait?

It has been a month now and waiting a minute always works for connecting to my airport extreme on boot. I was cleaning behind my desk and realized that the ethernet cable was still attached to the back of the iMac even though I had moved the airport upstairs. I disconnected it. I also opened network preferences. The wifi was moved a long time ago to the top for priority, but the inactive ethernet and firewire were still listed. I removed both the ethernet and firewire so the only connection listed is wifi. My computer has now found the internet on 4 consecutive boots without waiting. It appears that having the other two options disrupts the connection process on boot. I will continue checking over the next week and let you know how it goes. Wish me luck!

So you have tried connecting to open network that do not require a password and it was still unable to connect? If that is the case.

[SOLVED] NetworkManager does not connect to WiFi networks

I'm using `networkmanager` to connect WiFi.
I have selected WiFi Name through `networkmanager`.
Next, enter WiFi Password.
But the problem is, `networkmanager` asks me about password again and again and over again and does not connect to WiFi never !!!!
I'm sure WiFi password that I entered is correct.

WiFi does not connect whilst Time Machine backup occurs at startup

This is a problem I've had since the beta test session and does not seem to have been fixed.
If I shut down the computer in the middle of a backup or a backup strats immediately on opening the lid of my computer (MBA late 2010), the WiFi does not connect. If I am patient, eventually the backup will terminate and I can then connect. My router is a Time Capsule, and all software is up to date.
I don't recall having this problem with Snow Leopard.

If this is a recent problem perhaps you've reached your Mb limit: if it never has connected are you sure you're paying your carrier for cellular Internet.
