How to connect can i connect to wifi automatically

Hi,
I was just wondering if you guys can help me have my macbook connect on my wifi automatically?

Changing your routers security to WEP seems to fix this issue.
WEP is a less secure protocal then WPA or WPA2.
You will have to weigh the security concerns vs the convience for your individual situation(s).

  • How to connect to wifi automatically when available?

    Hello users, I have a 8510 Curve and use 3G most day, but I want it to automatically connect to Wifi when I am at home, and disconnect 3G. How can I do it?

    I have the curve 8520 but I think the settings should be the same. Go to manage connections, then select mobile network options. From there you should see 'connection preference'. Choose WIFI preferred then save. It should automatically connect to your home WIFI.
    Hope this helps

  • How do connect to wifi so I can use my MacBook Pro out of office

    How do I connect to wifi so to use my MacBook Pro out of the office

    Depends on the WiFi source.   Download Firefox from http://www.mozilla.com as some WiFi routers only let you login via Firefox. 
    Have an cat-5 or cat-6 ethernet cable handy, as some hotels provide WiFi between rooms in a hotel, but do not broadcast on a frequency that you can pickup
    with your Mac, but rather give you a direct connection to their router in the room.
    Some places require you download Boingo and subscribe to Boingo to get on their service.
    For the rest, you should be able to get the protocol, network name, username, and password for connecting your Mac from the provider.  Ones with no password will automatically appear in the Airport menu which looks like *.  The ones with a password may show up there, or only work if you Connect to Other... from that menu.   That menu may be gray or it may be black.  If there is a lock next to the network name, you'll need a password and protocol to connect.
    Macs support WPA2, WEP, TKIP connections via WiFi.
    WEP aren't very secure.  WPA2 are much more secure.

  • How to connect to wifi prompt with Apple TV?

    To connect to wifi in public locations (e.g., Starbucks, hotels), you often have to click an "I agree" button after selecting the network.  For business presentations in hotels and other venues, I carry an Apple TV with me.  I connect the Apple TV to a big screen TV at the venue, then use my iPad to present content on the TV.  You will know that the Apple TV and the iPad have to be on the same wifi network in order for this to work.  But in locations that require an "I agree" in order to connect to the local wifi network, I do not know how to connect the Apple TV to the wifi network.  Is there a way to see/accept the "I agree" button when connecting the Apple TV to the network?

    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). You can see which Mac you have and which operating system you are using by selecting 'About this Mac' from the Apple menu in the top left corner of your Mac and selecting the 'More Info' button.

  • How to connect to wifi

    i just bought my itouch a week ago and cannot connect to wifi..i have no idea where to begin to get all those numbers and IP and it says i need a password to connect to my wireless network in my house but i have no clue what that password is or how to get it can anyone help me connect? thx

    The password is set by whomever created your wireless network.
    You'd need to contact that person(s) and have them provide the password for you.
    Sometimes the password is on a sticker attached to your wireless router. I know Verizon does this with DSL and FiOS routers with WiFi capabilities.
    You should not need any further information other than the password for your wireless network.
    You probably don't need IP addresses or anything. Your wireless network is likely set up to provide all of that information to your iPod once you successfully connect to the wireless network.

  • Windows 7 laptops unable to connect to WiFi automatically

    Hello All,
    We are facing a wierd issue where the Windows 7 laptops are unable to connect to the corporate Wifi automatically.
    We have pushed the profiles using Group Policy and there are about 15 profiles present on each laptop. The SSIDs are not broadcasted and PEAP is the authentciation method. While the Windows XP and some of the older Win 7 laptops connect fine the newer Dell 6410/20s doesnt. Upgrading the wireless card drivers hasnt made a difference.
    I am posting this to know if anyone else on this forum has faced this issue and found a fix? Please suggest what could be the problem. Thank you in advance.
    Best Regards

    Hello Scott,
    I am unable to set the policy to 2.4 only since there are a lot of APs sharing the controller and dont want to bump off all the clients that are able to client.
    Today tried upgrading a cleints wireless NIC drivers and that didnt make much difference. And I am not seeing any debug output on the WLC for this client.
    I think either some laptops are not probing actively or the WLC is ignoring the probe requests.
    Could someone please guide how can i check if the laptops are sending probe requests for a particular SSID ??
    I know it can be done using a wireless sniffer, but unfortunately i am not based onsite nor there is anyone onsite who can help.
    Thanks,
    Jeen

  • Mac OSX lion does not connect to wifi automatically

    Hi there
    My mac osx lion does not connct to wifi automatically , or when i open the lid it doesn't connect either...
    could you please help me with this problem?

    Bump
    is there anyone else with a Mountain Lion Mac and a TP-Link TL-WDR4300? I am almost sure that it's this combination that doesn't work. All other devices I have (Apple and non-Apple) can work perfectly on 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz, but the settings on the WiFi adapter on the Mac are the same for all Wireless networks, so I just don't get why it would work on 5Ghz but not on 2.4Ghz...
    Thank you

  • OSX Mavericks won't connect to Wifi automatically after recent (security) patch.

    After the recent OSX Mavericks software update I am having wifi connectivity issues. My MBP (retina) won't connect to my preferred wifi automatically and I have to do it manually. Am I the only one having issues after the update and are there any fixes?

    I am also having the same behavior, after updating to 10.9.3 WIFI won't reconnect.
    I have to turn-off wifi, then turn-on wifi to get connected.

  • HOW TO CONNECT E51 WIFI TO PC

    HI M SWAPNIL
    I HV E51 WITH WIFI CONNECTION BUT MY PC DONT HV WIFI
    HOW 2 ACESSES INTERNET USIG WIFI OF MY E51???
    HELP ME.
    THANKKS

    You can't use the E51 as a wireless gateway to allow the PC to connect to the internet through a wireless router.
    The PC needs to be connected to the router via it's own wifi, not via the E51's.
    So you need to buy a USB wifi adaptor for your PC, they don't cost very much nowadays. Contact a local computer store for assistance if you don't know what to buy.

  • How do connect to wifi instead of using my usual service

    I just downloaded Whatsapp and my understanding is that I can avoid data usage on my phone plan by switching over to wifi.  My internet service is wifi so can I switch it over in settings?
    Thanks

    Provided that your network is compatible, absolutely! To connect, open the System Preferences app from the Apple logo menu to the top left of the Menu Bar. Click Wi-Fi from the column to the left in the window that pops up. If it is not on already, turn Wi-Fi on by clicking the Turn Wi-Fi On button. Next, select the name of your network. Enter your network password if prompted to do so.

    Windows installed:
    - Via BootCamp? If so did you install the drivers?
    Install Windows support software
    After installing Windows, the support software installs Boot Camp drivers to support your Mac hardware, including AirPort devices, the built-in camera, the Apple Remote, the trackpad on a portable Mac, and the function keys on an Apple keyboard. The software also installs the Boot Camp Control Panel for Windows and the Apple Boot Camp system tray item.
    After you configure Windows, if you kept the external USB drive that has the Windows support software inserted, an installer starts automatically. Otherwise, insert the external USB drive, then double-click the setup.exe file located in the BootCamp folder.
    Follow the onscreen instructions.Important: Do not click the Cancel button in any of the installer dialogs.If a message appears that says the software you’re installing has not passed Windows Logo testing, click Continue Anyway.You don’t need to respond to installer dialogs that appear only briefly during installation, but if a dialog asks you to install device software, click Install.If nothing appears to be happening, there may be a hidden window that you must respond to. Look behind open windows.
    When the support software finishes installing, click Restart, then click Yes.
    After your Mac restarts, follow the instructions for any other installers that appear.
    Check for updated Windows support software. In OS X, choose Apple menu > App Store, then install all available updates.
