How can I have wireless network in my new notebook

I bought a MacBook Pro but am unable to join Wi-Fi Network at home.  They are asking to enter the network password.  Where do I find that?

It depends what you mean by network password, if it is the ISP account then follow mvest20's advice, if it is your wifi signal that you need to connect to, it will be whatever you set that to when you setup the wifi router, failing that some routers have the password printed on them.

  • How can i have bookmarks automatically in a new tab rather than the tab i am in when i select a bookmark?

    How can I get book marks to automatically open in a new tab rather than the tab I am in when I select the bookmark?

    It would be good if this was made a user-defined Option (Tools -> Options -> Tabs) in the next update of Firefox rather than having to install an add-on. I currently keep Firefox open to view my Accuweather.com add-on running or because I know that I will be returning to Firefox in short order. (I do close Firefox if I have visited a sensitive or secure site to ensure better security.) Every time I want to go to a bookmark, I must open a new "(Untitled)" tab before selecting my bookmark using the keyboard (I'm a dedicated keystroker; it's much faster for me). This way, when I close the website, I have an "(Untitled)" tab displaying so that Firefox doesn't close. Why can't I set an Option parameter that will result in me not having to go through this? Alternatively, allow users to set an option to keep Firefox loaded and open in the event only one tab is open and maybe if only one Firefox application window is running (I avoid having more than one Firefox window open as much as possible). I've addressed this last issue in the past but have seen no change when one closes the last tab in a Firefox window. As general practice, I would think that Firefox would run better if options, like I have described above, were part of the Firefox application code and not given to needing an add-on which may cause instability in Firefox as they have in the past, even with author verification and certification.

  • HT4259 I have a Netgear wndr3400 and I can "join a wireless network" but can not "extend a wireless network" on my Airport express.  Does anyone know why?

    I have a Netgear wndr3400 and I can "join a wireless network" but can not "extend a wireless network" on my Airport express.  Does anyone know why?

    Sorry, but "Extend a wireless network" is a proprietary Apple setting that will only work if you have another Apple router.
    It is not compatible with devices from other manufacturers.

    Call AT&T and see if you meet their requirements for unlocking the phone.  If you don't, then you'll have to purchase a different phone entirely.

  • How can I get Wireless N 5MHZ Capabilities Dual Band up to 300MHZ on my DV7 Laptop?

    How can I get Wireless N 5MHZ Capabilities Dual Band up to 300MHZ on my DV7 Laptop?
    Question for 4/18 experts ...
    Or specifically, how can I replace my wireless card on a DV7-6B32US and upgrade to Intel Centrino 6230?
    I have a relatively new DV7-6B32US puchased on 11/2011.  Still under warranty. purchased 2 of the laptops. (also own 3 hp desktops and 1 HP All in One)
    Existing card is wireless N but does not support 5GHZ or dual band.  It is Broadcom 4313 wifi card and I am just realizing that the Broadcom card does not do the dual band  5GHZ wireless N.   I have Linksys e4200 router which supports 5GHZ and dual band speeds up to 300 Mbps.
    I called tech support and with their help identified Intel Centrino 6230 as the correct upgrade, and with their help ordered 631956-001.  In the Maintenance Manual for DV7 laptop, this part number was listed for Intel Centrino 6230.  Turns out HP sends an Intel Wireless N 1030 card, which is no better than my existing card.   I called HP and they acknowledged that some manuals use part number 631956-001 for Centrino 6230 and some use 631956-001 for INtel 1030.  So HP support said they would give refund but case manager was of no help in solving the upgrade problem.  Said it was unavailable but here is your money back.
    So after more searching, I see others have used part number 636672-001 to order Intel Centrino 6230, specifically for HP ProBook 4530s, 4230s, 4730s.   And if I use part number 636672-001 and go thru parts store at HP, I can purchase it. 
    But will it work??
    First, will the Intel Centrino 6230 with part number 636672-001 from HP parts,  work in my HP DV7-6B32US, even though the part number is NOT listed in the Maintenance and Service Guide for my specific  laptop.  I see postings about whitelists and changing bios, etc, and am hoping someone can provide some guidance.   I have been thru 2 tech support calls and one case manager and have gotten 3 different feedback from HP, from yes it will work and ordering the part, to buy it on amazon, to it will not work and here is your money back.
    Second, I see some postings about Centrino 6230 and multiple antenna's.  When I replaced the Broadcom 4313 with the Intel 1030 card, I simply unattached 2 wires and reattached the wires.  And it worked.   I am wondering if the reason HP doesn't list the 6230 card for DV7 is that DV7 does not have the antennas required to support 6230.   Does the Centrino 6230 require 3 antennas?
    Thanks for any suggestions.  The existing cards do work but I paid extra for the Linksys e4200 Router and just assumed a winter 2011 $700 laptop from HP would use the latest wireless n technology, otherwise I would just keep existing cards. 

    I have went thru the exact same problems trying to upgrade the wireless card in my DV7.  It is very frustrating that the wireless card can't be upgrade to one that supports 5Ghz.  Here is my post from the network forum. http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Wireless-Internet-Home/Unsupported-Wireless-LAN-6230/td-p/1419595 Doesn't sound like it is possible to upgrade to the Centrino 6230 without it being added the the "white list".  Sound like HP doesn't update the list after shipping the notebook. I feel your pain. HP needs to help out the consumer in upgrading the wireless cards.  I see we are not the only ones that have had this problem. 

  • How can i share my network from timecapsule to other devices. The thing is i can use access internet from my macbook only.

    I have recently got a Time Capsule with my Macbook pro retina 15". I am trying to setup my time capsule as a wifi station at my home. But the thing is I can only access wifi from my lap only.
    How can I share my network from timecapsule to other devices, and im using OS X 10.8.2
    Please help me!
    Thanks in advance!
    (sorry for the bad english)

    How is the TC currently connected into the network?
    It should work fine in bridge and create a wireless network.. it should already be able to share the network without being the main router.
    Setting up wireless from wireless is difficult.
    I would recommend you buy the USB to ethernet cable Apple sell as an accessory for Air and MBPr so you can actually use ethernet when required.

  • How can i improve wireless speed?

    Hey i recently put up a thread to my mistake i thought i was getting a **bleep** service but buoy was i wrong. Im getting a superb service from bt infinity 2. But heres my problem i get this through a wired connection:
    and i get this through wireless:
    heres my theroy how can i maximise wireless speed similar to the speeds of a wired connection. just to add i have refreshed my smart wireless thing lol at hub settings webpage. also it is my first day with bt its just been instaled now for about 11 hours now, and will it get faster but i am doubting that cause of the results above on the wired so it must be down to my wireless card or config of the home hub 4.

    Now you are asking how long a piece of string is.
    There are so many variables that can disrupt a wireless connection it is no wonder ISP's will not ( and cannot) support it.
    Wired is always the best option but it's understandable that it may not be convenient for some devices (the manufacturers of which promise so much in terms of wireless connection).
    First make sure your wireless card drivers are up to date, don't trust Windows update to have the latest ones, go to the card makers website for the latest.
    If a Windows system download and run InSSider to find the best channel for your area.
    After that there HERE is a link for the best advice out there. It is an invaluable source of tips, tricks etc and would recommend it to anyone not used to the vagaries of wireless networking or connections. Best of all it won't cost you a penny or endless hours on hold to support who at the end cannot help you.

  • HT5569 How can I print wireless from my iPad 4

    Hi everyone!...
    How can I print wireless from my iPad 4?
    Your answer will be most appreciated.
    Thank u s. M.

    See requirements for AirPrint and printers that support AirPrint here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    If your printer supports AirPrint but does not work then:
    Your printer might need a firmware update
    Your printer must be on the same WiFi network
    Your router must support Bonjour (Zero-configuration networking).
    For troubleshooting:
    Turn Off iPad, WiFi router (remove from power), and Printer (remove from power).
    Turn on WiFi router
    Wait 30 seconds
    Turn on printer
    Wait 30 seconds
    Turn on iPad
    Try to print.
    If you need more help then what printer do you have?

  • Can't get wireless network on SPA122

    Have the SPA122 connected to a DPC3825 modem (that has been bridged).  VOIP phone service does work, and the wired internet connection is also working; but can't get the wireless network to come up, and have looked everywhere that I can think of and tinkered with many settings to no avail (and then done factory resets, etc..).  Any other ideas for how to get the wireless network up?
    Thanks
    Martin

    Hello, 
    I'm sorry to let you know that the SPA122 is not a wireless capable device.
    If you are supposed to have wireless on your location I can guarantee that it doesn't come from this device.
    I hope this information is helpful

  • Airport express can't extend wireless network

    Airport express(A1264) can't extend wireless network. It seems that Airport express can't find my home Wi-Fi network. Amber light is blinking, and AirPort Utility of MacBook also can't find Airport express.
    If AE is connected with TC via LAN cable, amber light is blinking with message "Wireless Network" (This Airport base station is set up to join a specific wireless network that can't be found...)
    It was successful only once, but all failed after that.
    Is there solution for this problem?

    Sorry, I misunderstood what you wanted to do.
    Since you did tell us that you had the Express connected with an Ethernet cable, I assumed that was how you wanted to configure the Express.
    But I want to extend a wireless network (not using ethernet)
    Because Airport Express and Time Capsule cannot be connect via ethernet cable.
    Follow the same setup as above....and do not connect an Ethernet cable.
    Keep the Express near the Time Capsule for the setup. Once you have a green light, move the Express to a point that is about half way between the Time Capsule and area that needs more wireless coverage.
    If you reset the Express several times and try the setup several times without success, I think you have to suspect a defective Express.

    While in the Address Book press the Menu and than Options. Just type in RSET
    (capital letters) and you'll be able to wipe out all your Desktops where the
    Wireless synchronization is Not available. You can keep intact the last Desktop
    where the Wireless Synchronization is Yes.

    How can use my Wireless Location Appliance to work with RF ID's for Asset Tagging.
    It seems Smartcard used for ID cards have a small RF ID, can I use this for Asset Tagging?
    Thanks in Advance

    There are two kinds of RFID tags: Active tags, which have a battery or other internal power source, and passive tags, which have no power source and work by reflecting the energy from an RFID scanner (basically). At the energy levels and distances used for WiFi location detection, passive tags will not return a detectable signal.
    Take a look at http://www.aeroscout.com/ for more info on WiFi RFID tagging.

  • HOW CAN I SET TIHE NETWORK TIME BECAUSE IT DOESNT ALLOW ME TO SING IN

    HOW CAN I SET TIHE NETWORK TIME in the apple tv BECAUSE IT DOESNT ALLOW ME TO SING IN

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Time and date should be set automatically by the network time server. There has been a number of posts reporting this problem. Solutions have involved:
    Restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for a few moments.
    Restoring the Apple TV.
    Opening port 123 on the router.
    Ensuring the DNS address on both the router and the Apple TV are those provided by your ISP.

  • How can I disable wireless admin privileges to the router ?

    I am using an Airport Utility for Windows for Airport Extreme. For the sake of better security, how can I disable wireless admin privileges to the router so that the router can only be configured via hardwire connection?

    For the sake of better security, how can I disable wireless admin privileges to the router so that the router can only be configured via hardwire connection?
    Sorry, but this is not possible.
    If you want to limit access to administration of the router, you should change the Base Station password, and only give out that password to those individuals that you want to have access to the administration settings of the router.
    The forums have been having problems displaying screenshots, but we will attach one below in the hopes that the problems may be fixed.
    Important Note.......even with this,  "security" on the AirPort routers is an illusion.......since a one second press on the reset button will give any user 5 minutes of free access to go in and change any settings that they want. 
    So, you might want to keep any eye on things.
