I Can No Longer Connect Wirelessly With My iPad!

About 2 days ago my iPad suddenly stopped connecting wirelessly to my BT HomeHub.
I have deleted all of the networks available to me and reinstated them, I have carried out a full Restore of my iPad and I have switched all of my equipment off and back on again. But to no avail.
Although my HomeHub is ticked on the list of Wi-Fi networks on my iPad every time I try to connect to the internet to browse, get mail or listen to the radio I receive a message stating "Connection failed. The internet connection appears to be offline". On occasions I get a BT Wholesale error message! This happens whether I try to connect via my HomeHub or BTFon or BT Openzone etc.
This is VERY inconvenient as it makes my iPad just an expensive photoframe!
Incidentally, my BT HomeHub no longer recognises my password. This has made me forget which is the correct password for accessing my HomeHub. Is it the Wireless Key (WPA)? Or the Admin. Password? I've tried both of those and neither work.
Why oh why do electronics have to go wrong when I need them most!

Hello,
All the information you need is printed on the back of the Hub. There are two passwords, one for the Wireless setting (WPA password) and one for access to the hub (Admin password).

If you have forgotten what you changed the admin password to, then I'm afraid you're lost and you should factory reset your Hub:

Can no longer connect wirelessly with other computers

I have an iMac and a Macbook Air. For some reason I can no longer connect wirelessly between the two. They don't show up in Finder. Therefore I can't use "Remote Disk" on my Macbook Air to install programs.
Recently I switched from using an Airport router to a Cisco router. Could this be the problem? I can still connect to the internet through my wireless network, but can't find my computers.

Can no longer connect wirelessly to BT Home Hub

Macs...start straight from the box, all the software you need, ready to go....erm, except if your machine worked fine before you upgraded to Snow Leopard and now you can no longer use your expensive mac laptop wirelessly.
The internet is full of people identifying a glitch in SL. NO, its not the router - my old iMac G5 connects fine, as did this new shiny, now useless MacBook... before I upgraded to SL and the wi-fi went.
Outraged? Annoyed? Disgusted apple can't/won't fix it? You bet. This is plainly ridiculous. Please, can somebody offer some help (in simple non techie language please) and also tell me how to unistall SL, so I can go back to Leopard if none of the fixes work and do simple stuff that even pc's can manage, like wireless. One word: RIDICULOUS! Thanks in advance for your help. regards, Exasperated.

Can No Longer Connect Wirelessly to HP Photosmart D110 after Comcast All-in-One Modem Upgrade

Hello,
I just replaced my former modem +router setup with a new "all-in-one" "Wireless Gateway 1" modem from Comcast (model # TC8305C). The setup guide for the new modem states: "The Wireless Gateway 1 is an all-in-one product that connects XFINITY internet and home networking. It provides wired and WI-FI connectivity, so there's no need for a separate router." I was previously able to connect wirelessly to the Photosmart D110 from my laptop. When I tried to update the network information on the printer sing the printer's Wireless Setup Wizard, the network name did not appear in the list of available networks. I added the name, as requested, and then added the network password associated with the new modem. However, the printer's Wireless Network Test Report said that "the printer cannot find my wireless router." Specifically, the Test said that the new network name was found, but said that the passcode was incorrect. I repeated the setup 3 times and did type the network passcode correctly. Will the printer not work wirelessly due to the new all-in-one modem? Is there a way to remedy this? I apologize for being pathetically non-technical, and would be grateful for any assistance! Thanks.

OK, first wireless Gateway (modem/router combo) units are terrible for wireless connection. It is always, always best to use a separate modem and router in your network that YOU have control over instead of Comcast. If you have your old router it would be best to call Comcast and have that Gateway put in Bridge mode (disables the router section) and connect your own high quality router. With that said, let's try this. Set the router to a fixed wireless channel like 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto'. If you still can't connect, remove all security off the routers SSID. Now try to connect to your SSID with no security. Are you successful?

Can no longer connect wirelessly to hub

Until today everything has been fine. Now I cannot connect wirelessly to my hub. I get connection time out messages. Sometimes my hub does not even show up in the list of available networks. I can connect to BT Fon though. I've tried re-booting both the hub and my computer with no effect.
I'm using an iMac OS X 10.5.5
Can anyone help please.

Hi
How do I do this if I can't get on to the Internet properly???
If you follow jjgraphics advice above and connect a wire (ethernet cable) from your hub to your PC/laptop you should be able to connect to the internet.
Funny enough I lost my wireless connection on my home hub2 last night.
Even though http://www.metageek.net/products/inssider insidder could still see my wireless signal was on a clear channel.
Using ethernet wired connection I was able to still connect to the internet.
I used the button on the side of the Home hub2 and turned both laptops off but still not able to connect to the internet using wireless... even re-entered my wireless key.
The solution was to turn the power off the Home Hub for a minute or so and on turning the hub back on everything worked again.
Btw don't forget Christmas lights can cause wireless problems.

After upgrading, Firefox, I can no longer print wirelessly from my IPAD. How do I go back to the previous version?

Prior to updating Firefox, I had been able to print wirelessly from my IPad to my HP wireless printer.

Can No Longer Connect Wirelessly to ITunes With My IPod Touch

While I can connect to the Internet with my IPod Touch through my router, I cannot seem to connect to ITunes wirelessly. My device only shows when I have it connected through the cable directly. The Apple help site hasn't been much good, as they suggested to completely uninstall ITunes (I followed their instructions implicitly) and re-install. Same problem. Not sure if this has anything to do with the new OS....but it's suspicious.

Diolacles wrote:
Not sure if I was included in this question, but I'll answer anyway. My computer that I have ITunes on is hard wired into the router, which makes sense since it's on my computer desk But as I said, wireless works fine so It's logically not the IPod, it's not the router, so it has to be either the new OS or ITunes.
I have Rogers Cable and a Cisco Modem/router.
How do you quote posts on here?
Yep, you were included...
To add a quote, click Reply, and at the top of the reply window is a tool bar. Click the icon to the right of the smiley face....
Funny thing is, my desktop is hard wired too, but for grins and giggles I put iTunes on one of my laptops, and used the laptop to reset my iPod to factory settings. Wireless synch still didn't work....
What really aggravates me is when you go to the KB to find out how to troubleshoot an issue, the articles are pretty much blank. Click here, set that, but no real explanation of how stuff works or what can cause it to break....
One thing I have noticed is the KB article says that after you tell iTunes to use Wireless Synch if you don not eject the deivce, it will stay connected when you unplug it... I never saw that behavior....

WRT400N Can no longer connect to with cat 5 or wireless.

Been having random connection drops for the past few weeks where I would see the network connections to the router just drop either on a wireless connection or a wired cat 5 connection. As of tonight I cant connect to the router at all. If I disconnect and reconnect the power after 30 seconds it will come up for a short time but then I will lose it again. I can't get help from linksys as my router is out of warrenty. I'v searched around for similiar problems people have been having, but it seems like mostly involve just the internet connection. I still have the same firmware for the routers as the day I purchased it and the router sits on my desk in a ventilated area not overheating. I'm not sure what steps I can do to further diagnose the problem, I have even tried resetting to factory defaults. Is there any steps anyone here could recommend that I try to diagnose the problem or see if my router is just dead. Thanks in advance.
Peter.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If that is the case then you can try the following steps:
# Open up the browser and on the address bar type 192.168.1.1 that will open up the Router setup page.
# On that same setup page reduce the MTU value to 1400 from Auto
# Then go to the Wireless tab, keep network mode as mixed,
For Channel Settings of 2.4 GHz you can make Channel Width to 20 MHz only and Channel to 6, 9, 11..
For Channel Settings of 5 GHz you can make Channel Width to 20 MHz only and Channel to 40 or 161...
Secondly avoid using any other wireless devices like cordless phones, microwave oven etc nearer to the router. Then check the wireless connectivity.

You unplugged the router and modem -- that's good. Now try resetting your iPad.

This is a user-to-user forum. Apple does not respond to posts here. You can give Apple your feedback on the Feedback page:

They don't respond directly there, either. And once you post something here, people will comment as they see fit, regardless of what you originally hoped for. That's just the way it is with a public forum.
Try Groove for iPad. People seem to think it's a great replacement to the previous music app.

HT5622 After the os upgrade I can no longer log in with my Ipad to itunes or the app store, I can log in with my computer just fine any ideas?

Nothing that requires and Apple ID or a password works, the WIFI, browser adn facebook all still work just the Apple stuff will not work. It repeately ask me to sign in. It works just fine on the desktop I can log in a buy stuff even transfer it to theI pad with a cable. But the I pad acts like it has been isolated by the os upgrade. Any Ideas on how to fix this?????

Try logging out of your Apple ID with the iTunes and App Store at Settings > iTunes and App Store. Select your Apple ID and at the window that appears, select Sign Out. Follow this by signing back in.
Regarding the Outlook password which is the password for the email account you are also accessing with the iPhone's Mail app, try deleting and recreating the account on the iPhone.

I can no longer send emails with my IPad. Receives fine but will not send

Can no longer connect to wireless router after upgrading to iTunes 9.2

My wireless connection was fine (using MacBook). After upgrading iTunes, I can not longer connect to router/modem wirelessly - am tethered with an ethernet cable. Spent 1 1/2 hours on phone with AT&T support reseting the passwords, security, etc. A PC laptop accepts password and can connect. My iPhone still can connect. But my MacBook (OS X 10.6) will not recognize my password for the modem/router. Everything has been re-booted and reset to original settings. Also, I received an iPad yesterday and it won't accept the password for our home wireless network. The password is correct because I am using it on other devices that are connecting to the network. Any ideas?

Yes, but the issue is not with Lion directly; there seems to be something with the upgraded system, perhaps a legacy setting or pref... I've scoured the system to no avail. I'm actually about to reinstall 10.6 - wasted too much time on this issue.
Thanks for your help.
