HT5569 I am having trouble connecting to wifi can you help.

I am having trouble connecting to wifi can you help.

connectng with a pin # will not work with the ipad. you need to find out exactly what the actual wifi password is.
pin and push buttons are used by wifi protected setup. which is an optional feture of WPA
here are some ideas
go to the routers home page (typically 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.254) and see if you can click on "show password"
get the manual out, it should have the default user name and password you may need to access the routers page
if your windows computer connects, then you should be able to right click the wifi connection and click on show password as well. this is somewhere in the properties page of the wifi connection
also with windows its a good idea to click on "save wifi connection to usb drive" this can be used to connect other windows computers and xbox game consoles as well
if your laptop computer is a mac book you can go to the keychain or icloud keycahin and reveal the actual passowrd as well.
look at the actual router it might have directions on a sticker on how to access the routers configuration pages
if you enter the wrong password on the ipad you need to forget the network and try again

  • I am having trouble connecting to wifi networks that are password secured, even though I know the passwords.

    hey guys,
    Ok so here is the problem. I am having trouble connecting to wifi networks that are password secured. I am able to connect to public wifi with no problem, but when networks have passwords on them I am unable to connect to them, and I know that passwords. I also know that i am putting the correct passwords in because I am able to connect to the networks on my computer. I have tried turning my phone off and then back on, turning the wifi off and then back on and even resetting my network passwords to no avail. The networks that are secure show up in the wifi list for networks but when I go to put the password in, it tells me "incorrect password for the network". It has never connected to it since the passwords have been put on it. I am out of ideas for trouble shooting. Can anyone else help?!

    Try a soft reset by holding in the power button and the home button in at the same time for about 15 seconds until the screen flashes and then goes completely black. Afterwards try and turn the phone back on and see if that works. Also you could try and reset the Network Settings by going to Settings--General--Reset--Reset Network Settings and see if that resolves your problems as well. If all else fails be sure and do a backup through ITunes and then try to restore the device. Hopefully all will be well now.

  • Has anybody bought an Epson XP 205 cause having trouble connecting to wifi

    Hhas anybody bought an Epson XP 205 cause having trouble connecting to my wifi (which is sky broadband) I have the Epson app but it cannot find the printer has anybody got any suggestions?

    I am so disappointed! The exact samething has happened to me, AND my husbands Touch. We had no problems before, and as you say with 2.1 a little stared - I ignored it because I love and defend my touch. After 2.2 all heck broke loose, I went to the genius bar and of course it ran perfect there. I had numerous screen shoots in one day, 'failed to connect to server, safari server, gmail server' - timed out blah blah blah, so they suggested I call my internet provider, they run a test and everything fine, they suggest I call the router people, ten bucks later and with nothing really showing a problem with the router our Touches still do not work like they used to. I am NOT buying a iphone, I want Apple to fix it or tell me how, it worked fine before what the heck gives, I wish someone could answer honestly.
    Thanks for letting me get that off my chest, I really hate to switch to Zune as my nephew has been bragging about.

  • Retina Macbook Pro Having Trouble Connecting To Wifi?

    Hi, I have a TP Link router with a 2013 2 TB time capusle connected to it.
    And My macbook pro seems to be having trouble connecting to the TP Link's network, My 5GHz network on my time capusle, and my normal 2.4GHz network on my time capusle.
    When I try connecting to a network it says connecting for about 30 seconds and then comes up with a exclamation mark "!" symbol.
    It will randomly start connecting and working, then maybe 10,15 minutes later it drops out for a few hours again. Im not sure what's going on.
    P.S Averything else will connect (Macbook air, iPhone 5s, My iMac, My iPad mini ect.
    Please Help!
    James.

    When you see an exclamation point in the Wi-Fi menu, from the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
    Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts. You may get a warning that Wi-Fi is not available, that you're too far from the base station, or that you're using the wrong password.
    Assuming that you've ruled out those possibilities, restart the computer and try again. If there's no change, click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane and authenticate, if necessary. From the Location menu at the top of the window, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click  Apply and test.

  • IPhone 4 having trouble connecting to wifi with redirect

    Hi all,
    I was wondering if someone out there can help me.  I have an iPhone 4 running 5.0.1.  Ever since i upgraded to iOs 5, i have noticed trouble connecting to the wifi at work.  At home and school the phone connects perfectly.  At work we have a redirect page.  When going under safari it just uses my mobile network (which is not that strong).  I check the wifi menu and it seems as if it is "trying" to connect...it shows the grey pinwheel spinning next to the correct netowrk but nothing ever happens.  I try to "renew lease", i turn off wifi, i reset the phone.  Sometimes it connects first try.  Other times it takes HOURS.  I assumed maybe it was just the network, so i attempted to try to connect my nook, and the nook connects right away.  I never touched any settings, but i am very confused on to what may be going on here to explain the type of problem i am having since iOs 5.  Thank you in advance.
    Jenn

    You'll need to provide complete details before anyone will be able to offer suggestions.
    For future posts, please don't put a lot of excess characters in the subject line. Just a brief summary of the problem - e.g. "iPhone 3GS with iOS 5.01 cannot connect to WiFi" - will be sufficent. I've asked the Hosts to edit out the superfluous junk.
    Regards.

    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Does the iPod see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iPod connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • My iphone 3gs wont connect to the internet unless on wifi, can you help?

    i bought an iphone 3gs yesterday and on the whole everything is going well so far, however i can only use the internet on my phone if im connected to wifi, which limits me to only being able to use it at home or free wifi in resturants etc and i would like to be able to use it anywhere, surely i can? any suggestions?

    Settings>General>Resets>Reset Network Settings.
    If that doesn't fix it, contact your carrier and find out if there is a problem in your area.
    If not, then try a hard re-set (hold power and home together until you see the Apple logo).
    If that doesn't work, restore.
    If that doesn't work, restore as new.
    If that doesn't work, make an appointment at the genius bar.

  • Having trouble with enhanced podcasts, Can anyone help me adjust my iPod?

    Whenever I listen to my enhanced podcasts through iTunes, I have no problems viewing the photos the podcaster included in the program. However, when I play the same podcast in my iPod, the photos will not show. I only see the timeline with the little segments that represent the chapters. I can hit the forward and back arrows and I am taken the to the next chapter marker. But, unfortunately, I do not see the photos, as I do see them in iTunes.
    Can anyone help me adjust my iPod to enable it to play enhanced podcasts correctly?
    According to the iPod manuals, I should be able to see enhanced podcasts with no trouble.
    Thanks.

    I have solved it myself. Here's how I did it:
    In iTunes, go to Edit and click to Show Art Work and leave it as "Hide Art Work." (Now it will download the enhanced messages.)
    Now go to the iPod: From the Main Menu, go to Settings. At the Settings, go to the other Main Menu. From this Main Menu, go to Music and make sure that the following are on:
    Playlists, Photos, and Photo Import, Videos, and Extras.
    Good Luck.
