HT3867 how do I choose a wifi network to join

I have just bought a iphone4 but do not know what network to connect to for wifi

From the iPhone User Manual:
You would either join some public network as described in the HT3867 article you attached or a private network that perhaps you subscribe to (and pay for), which you would do as described in the Manual excerpt above.

How does iPad choose between wifi and 3G when both are 'on'?

Easy peasy question.
I have 02 and Wifi going on my iPad. I know I can use 02 out and about and I know I can use wifi at home etc.
But when I'm at home how do I make sure I'm using my wifi for data and not my cellular connection???
I've been turning my cellular to 'off' when at home, just in case, but I don't want to have the faff of turning it off and on, so it would be nice to know how the iPad chooses between wifi and 3G when both data access points are active.
Also I've had no wifi troubles at home at all. so far... The acid test will be setting it up at work as they have proxyies for everything, but obviously I don't have proxies at home. I'm not sure if the settings screen can cope with different proxies dependent upon different wifi networks... * grin *

In the status bar I have
a signal strength indicator then 'O2-UK' then the 'fan' No mention of 3G.
I'm guessing you're going to say that when 3G is showing then 3G is being used for data?

My itouch will not allow me to connect to my wifi. It doesn't even let me get onto my wifi settings. The button is unhighlighted as well so it won't even let me fix it or choose a wifi network!!!!!!

My itouch will not allow me to connect to my wifi. It doesn't even let me get onto my wifi settings.

My iPad mini touchscreen won't work and the screen is stuck on Choose A Wifi Network....Can Somebody Please Help Me

MY Ipad Mini Touchscreen Is Not Responding. It Won't Let Me Type In My Password When I Tried It Then Said That It Was Disabled For 1 Minute. Then I Tried It Again It Said Disabled For 5 Minutes. then I Tried To Reset It, I've Tried Recovery Mode NOTHING! Now The Screen Is Stuck On Choose a Wifi Network...Can Someone Help Me Please

If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, read this.

Thank you but I tried that and it still shows up as a network. I live out in the country and shouldn't have any other networks close. I am afraid of a security breach.
As far as networks showing up when you right click the WiFi icon in the Menu Bar, you will always see those that are close by. I know of no way to hide or remove those.
What leroydouglas provided is correct to remove any WiFi networks you have previously connected to.

Always asks to choose default WiFi network

I connected to the same wifi network for a year and it was always the one my computer would connect to automatically when it saw that network.
We moved although the service provider and hardware (the exact wifi router, no change in network details such as name or password) went with us. Now I have to choose the wifi network being told none of my preferred networks are available.
This is a huge pain and I don't know why it doesn't just see that network and connect. The password is saved in my keychain.

Only override is to "forget this network" and it will go on the homehub versus the BT. Or try turning i4 wifi off and on again and see if it goes for homehub. It stays on the active network forever unless you swap under wifi settings.

How do i find the wifi network and password for iphone 4s

how do i find the wifi network name and passwordfor iphone 4s?

Well Netgear will not know your password. The factory default user name for netgear is usually admin and the factory default is password is password. Go to an internet browser and in the url windo type in 192.168.0.1 and if I am right a login window will appear. Try the factory defaults.

How do I check a wifi network on my iphone 4S ?

I was in a Dennys restaurant that boasts a free WI-FI network, but couldnt logon to it. The iPhone saw the net but would not join it. No-one else could get onto the network either. This has happened in other locations too.
My home network is via the Telus phone line. I noticed that on this network, according to Speedtest.net, the internet speed is not very good, i.e. download 5.96 MB, Up 0.43 Mb/s, ping 62ms
Thanks for any ideas on making it easier to join free networks that wont be joined, and speed up access on a slow networks

If others are having problems getting on the network, it's probably a problem on the network, but I think you understand that. If the network is broken and it doesn't belong to you, the only way to 'bypass this' is to disconnect from the WiFi network and use 3G. That or complain to the manager... I doubt that will do you much good. They can barely figure out how to fry eggs, much less do anything with their network.

How do I remove a wifi network account from iMac? Or how do I encrpyt an open wifi network account to make it secure?

Somehow a wifi network connection has been created either on my airport router or iMac or iPad which is non secured, I.e. Open. I cannot workout how to delete it or make it a secure connection. My concern is that other users may able to access my computers via this open wifi connection.
What can I do to correct this?

click on the wifi icon and go all the way down to network preference click and open it once you on network window on the bottom right there is a advance icon click that then you should be able to delete all the network that your mac is remember.
hope this is help.

How to create a bigger wifi network?

Hello,
I am a macbook user and I have a virgin superhub in the front room in my house, can I put a airport express at the back of the house and connect to the virgin superhub to get a bigger wifi network and maybe get a wifi signal in the garden?
thanks for any suggestions.

but I could do it with 2 airport express units?
Yes, one AirPort Express would need to be located in the vicinity of the hub. In order to extend wirelessly, the second AirPort Express would need to be located approximately half way between the first Express and the garden area.
Any walls, ceilings, or other obstructions in the signal path between the AirPorts and the garden area will really absorb the signal quickly, so you will need to minimize obstructions as much as possible.
You never really know how well....or if....wireless connections will work for your purposes until you try things out in your home. For that reason, if you decide to give it a try with two AirPorts, it might be a good idea to understand the store's return policies before you buy.

How to "forget" previously used WiFi networks

Can anyone suggest how to remove the use/name of a wifi network I have used previously from the "connect via" screen when I want to connect to the internet or something like that.
I have applied a filter in the WLAN wizrd (which I think should block it, unless someone can tell me differently) but it still gets listed.
This happens when im around the network or not.
This is on the E66, but also applies to the E71.
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

There are always minor differences in the menus for different phones. The menu structure I quoted was for the N96.

How would I contain guest Wifi network in firewall?

I would like to implement a guest wifi network on my preexisting private network and can't figure out the security on my firewall. Currently the link connecting my private network to the internet is functioning fine and I really don't want to change this link into a trunk as I believe trying to reconfigure the trunk and security lists in the firewall would cause downtime. I would like to use a second interface on the firewall (5520 ASA with 8.2 software) as a trunk interface for my guest network and any other new VLAN in the future. My main concern is at the Core of my network the default gateway is the private IP for my internal firewall connection. If the guest network is connected to my core device going to the ASA, how do I specify a second default gateway on the core for the guest network on the ASA?
After writing this I realized, what if i connected a switch directly to the second trunk interface on my ASA and then used this IP as the default gateway for the guest network? I believe this should work but this leads me to one more question:
Say I wanted to allow my quest network access to a specific server on my internal network, would a proper configuration be to setup the ACLs on the firewall, allowing them to communicate to my inside network?

Hi,
Yeah I suppose changing the existing interface to a Trunk would not be possible without somekind of downtime unless you used an untypical configuration.
Sadly, my personal knowledge of wireless networks and the devices is almost nonexistent as we have different people to handle setting up those.
But I would imagine you can use a separate Vlan for the Guest Wifi and bring that Vlan to the new ASA interface only. If your actual core switch is doing routing, in other words if its acting as a L3 switch then you should probably add the Guest Wifi Vlan only as L2 to the core switch and configure it all the way to the new ASA Trunk. Default gateway as you say would be the IP address configured on the ASA itself.
Controlling the traffic from the new interface on the ASA should be pretty simple.
access-list GUEST-WIFI remark Allow traffic to internal server
access-list GUEST-WIFI permit tcp host eq
access-list GUEST-WIFI remark Deny All traffic to Internal networks
access-list GUEST-WIFI deny ip any
access-list GUEST-WIFI remark Allow All other traffic
access-list GUEST-WIFI permit ip any
access-group GUEST-WIFI in interface
The above ACL first allows some traffic to a certain internal server with a certain service. It then blocks all other traffic to the internal network. Finally it allows all other traffic. That would be all traffic destined to external public networks.
Naturally you would need possibly Static Identity NAT configurations (since you are using 8.2 software) to enable connections from the Guest Wifi to Internal network.

How do I choose Wi-Fi network/"This Apple TV" for my AirPlay?

I have Apple TV and I wanted to display my photos on my TV screen using AirPlay function. Now that pictures are displayed on the screen, there is black panel in the middle of the screen blocking the picture image. The panel shows the message "AirPlay - Wirelessly send.......using Airplay." and asking to choose either netowrk (option1) or The Apple TV (option2). How do I choose the network/Apple TV? Where do I choose it from if AirPlay mode is already set on my PC? I simply wanted to get rid of this message panel on my screen as picture setting is perfect; applicable wi-fi seems to be already selected. Any advice will be helpful. Thank you in advance.

Guest Network is OFF.
The Apple TV itself is showing channel 36. I just don't understand why.
When I click "Settings, General, About I then click UP twice on the remote dial to show the extra Wi-Fi Cannel line Oat the bottom in the "About" screen. This is where it's showing 36. ??????

How do I delete old wifi networks from appearing in the wifi icon in the menu bar.

Just bought a new Airport Time Capsule and is up and running OK.
When I click on the wifi icon in the menu bar all my old wifi networks appear
which are then viewable by neighbours although the networks themselves are PW protected.
In system preferences>network>advanced I have deleted all my old N/Works allowing only
my new one to appear.
How can I delete the old networks I no longer use from re-appearing in the list under the wifi icon?
Alan

When you delete old networks in System Preferences > Network > WiFi > Advanced, be sure to click the OK button, then click the Apply button in the next window that appears.
You also need to delete the old networks in KeyChain Access as follows:
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > KeyChain Access
Click on the name of an old wireless network to highlight it
Click the Delete key on your Mac
Do the same for other old wireless networks that you no longer use, then restart your Mac.
