I cannot connect to guest network.

Hi
My Guest network looks OK inTC, but just hangs when I try to access it from my iPhone.
Also my TC screen seems 'blocky' when redrawing and there is no screen with stars!
I'm on Yosemite with a new TC and a new iMac 27"
Please can anyone help? Ive rest the system about 6 times but no difference....!
Stuart

I have a cable feed to the property into the cable company's router. From there, a network cable into the TC, and then a feed from the TC to the iMac.
That means the TC is in bridge mode and you cannot use guest wireless.. it looks like you can but it actually will not work. Therefore the iphone must connect to the main wireless network.. OR if your cable router is wireless .. most are.. use that for guest wireless network.
As I said, the computer is wired in- my printer is wireless.
But your iphone is using wireless. Only you cannot use guest in your setup.. so use wireless as explained above.
There is a big issue now between Yosemite, iOS 8 and the Airport router.
See the background to this here.
Problems in wireless with yosemite.

For that reason I want you to stop the TC from being able to swap channel at 2.4ghz.. whenever it wants to..
The setting is under wireless options.
Change from Automatic, to 11, 8 or 6, in that order.. as they tend to be less used.. 1 and 6 actually are the most overused.
In my previous iMac and TC , the "enter time machine' instruction had a black space background. The current one is blobs of blurred colour which goes into blocky squares when I move the mouse over it.
Ahh.. I see. I will have to boot my one computer that runs yosemite.. I have been keeping it turned off as it causes network havoc.
I might get Bob to comment as he is running Yosemite as main OS now.. and it might be plain sailing for him.

Iphone 3GS "cannot connect to data network"

Ever since I updated to the new operating system, my phone (3GS) hasn't worked properly. Sometimes with 3 or even 4 bars of 3G I cannot make phone calls or send text messages or use the browser. I feel like I've tried everything; I have: restored it, restarted it, reset network settings. I receive the "cannot connect to data network" very often, extremely frustrating. If anyone has any fixing advice, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

If no change after restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup, there may be a problem with the SIM card. Contact your carrier which should be Rogers with a 3GS, and request a new SIM card.

TS1398 I did everything you are recommend to do and still cannot connect to the network. "Unable to join network" shows up even that is a university network working for other users - students and staff. I am very unhappy with my new iphone 5 :(

I did everything recommended on apple store support site and still cannot connect to the network with my new iphone 5 but my co-workers and students (I work for the university) can keep connectivity all the time. I am very unhappy with my new phone

Be patient, Apple is coming out with a update soon, its been reported that they have sent the update to the carriers to test, which means it will be soon. And is suppose to address this issue.

I have done the step 1 to 3,but still cannot connect the wireless network?

IPod Touch cannot connect to wireless network

I have a 1 TB, dual-band time capsule with a wireless network created to share our broadband internet connection for our main computer (the iMac), a windows PC, an iPhone 3G, and a 2nd gen iPod touch to connect to the internet. Wireless security for this network is WPA/WPA2 Personal. The windows box and the iPhone 3G connect without problem, but the iPod touch does not seem to connect correctly. The device sees the network, prompts for the password, and seems to be connected (wi-fi symbol visible in top left corner of device), but when trying to view a website using the Safari app, the screen dims and an endless "Connecting..." message is visible. Furthermore, when trying to update e-mail, I get a message that the connection to the server failed.
It is worth noting that the iPod did not always have this problem. It was able to connect to the wi-fi network until a few weeks ago. This may have been due to the upgrade to Snow Leopard, or perhaps due to an incident where the windows PC lost its connection to the network. When this occurred, I had to disable all security on the network, connect the PC to the network, then re-enable security (as I had to do when first installing the Time Capsule; for whatever reason, the windows box had a hard time joining the network with security enabled). Anyway, one of these two events is the likely cause of the iPod suddenly being unable to connect; I'm sorry to say that I'm uncertain as to which one, because my wife uses the device sporadically, so we cannot pinpoint exactly when this difficulty started.
As for attempted solutions, I tried resetting the iPod back to factory settings, only to have the same connection issues. I also changed the network security settings to None, and attempted to connect the iPod to the network (even though it should have no problem connecting to a secure network), but still no go. I am short on ideas for a fix, and would gladly welcome any advice the community has to offer. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Pretty much the same thing happened to me. My new Touch connects fine to my work wireless network (WEP64) - still does. But my home wireless network is SOL. I can join the router, wireless icon is in upper left corner (although gray, not green). I can even see the Touch from my router (Verizon FIOS). All other laptops in the house including wireless TiVo work flawlessly. I have not undone my security on my router yet - looks like it won't help. I have tried using static IP and I can still see iPod from router. But I cannot browse, go to AppStore, check email (which works great from work network), and have exact same error messages as above post. It has to be a security thing somewhere, I just didn't want to mess with router if I didn't have to. If I figure it out, I will post here........

I have been experiencing this as well for about a month and just about five minutes ago I resolved it! I have done everything! You need to unistall iTunes and Quicktime. Don't think you will loose your music as it is on you PC. Trust me. _Follow the links_ on unistalling everything, download it again with the following link and all you music automatically uploads again. It was amazing!

Connecting to guest network with iPhone ios5

After upgrading to iOS 5 my iPhone doesn´t work on the guest network on my Time Capsule (It connects, but internet won´t work). The reason seems to be that the assigned IP is not in the range defined for the guest network (but rather in the ip-range for my main network). Both my Macs and ipads get the right ip-address. I`ve tried this with 3 different iphones.
All phones worked on the guest network before upgrading, and still works when I connect to my main wi-fi network.

Did you perform a full power cycle and reset of your modem as follows?
Push the reset button on the modem
Power off the modem
Pull the battery if it is easily accessible
Power down all other devices on your network, order is not important
Wait 30 minutes ( It sometimes takes even longer for the equipment back at the cable company to fully reset so that it will issue you a totally new fresh connection. The cable company will never admit this.)
Reinstall the battery if you pulled it from the modem
Power up the modem and let it run by itself for 3-4 minutes
Start up the AirPort Extreme and let it run for 3-4 minutes so that it will fully associate with the modem
Start each device up on the network one at a time about a minute apart
Check for operation.

Airport express max connections w/guest network?

I am the network admin at a medium sized church. I want to setup 5 airport express routers our building. The private network has a windows server that will act as the dhcp server and i will be enabling the guest network as a public wifi network for a parishioners and guests. I know the max number of users is spec’d at 50 so my questions are as follows: 1 does the 5 user spec actually hold up? 2: does only apply if the airport express is acting as a dhcp server or if it is just passing ip addresses through? 3: does the 50 connections include the guest network as well as the main/private or is it 50 for the main and 50 for the guest?

Sorry, no. That model Express can't create a "guest network". To do that you will need a current production model Express, or recent model Extreme or Time Capsule.

Domain users cannot connect to the network folders when logged in via rds remote apps

Hi,
recently I setup an RDS farm for remote apps on server 2012 r2.
all users can connect to the apps published. no problems there.
but when users connect via rds they cannot connect to the networkfolders and cannot store the resultance of there work (docx and xlsx files)
all users are normally connected to the networkfolders using a small login batch file handing down the unc path needed. when I log in as domain admin, also using a login batch, connections are setup correctly. It seems to me to be an security issue on the
rds session host.
how to alter this?

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
We use WMI to communicate with the RDSH server. Various issues can cause WMI to deny access or return error codes. Here's a few things you can try:
1. Check if the "TS Web Access Computers" security group on the RDSH server has incorrect permissions in DCOM and/or WMI:
For checking DCOM security settings:
1. Start the Component Services MMC snapin
2. Navigate to Component Services -> Computers -> My Computer
3. Right-click on My Computer and select properties
4. Go to the COM Security tab
5. Under Access Permissions, click the Edit Limits button
6. Ensure that TS Web Access Computers is in the list, with all of the permissions set to “allow”.
7. Under Launch and Activation Permissions, click the Edit Limits button
8. Ensure that TS Web Access Computers is in the list, with all of the permissions set to “allow”.
For checking WMI security settings:
1. Start the WMI Control MMC snapin
2. Right-click the WMI Control node and select properties
3. Go to the Security tab
4. Navigate to Root->CIMV2->TerminalServices
5. With TerminalServices selected, click the Security button
6. Ensure that TS Web Access Computers is in the list with Execute Methods, Enable Account, and Remote Enable set to "allow"
2. Verify the RD Session Host server's firewall allows WMI calls.
3. Verify that the RD Connection Broker hasn't lost its trust relationship with the domain.
4. See if non-RDS related WMI calls can be successfully made to the RDSH server. This can help differentiate between a general WMI issue and an issue calling the RDS WMI provider.

ITunes 8 - Cannot connect to iStore - "network connection time out"

I've been running V7 with no problems. Updated to 8 (due wanting to use ipod Touch). Cannot connect to the iStore (everything else works fine). Receive the following message "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. The network connection timed out."
I've read other posts and tried the various suggestions i.e. switching off Norton, flushing the DNS etc. but still have the problem. Just de-installed iTunes and re-installed but still the same problem.
Does anyone have any idea what may be wrong ?
Any help much appreciated.
Regards, ocy.
P.S. My internet connection is working fine.

Hi,
I've run through the suggestions. The internet setting were ok, deleted itunes.exe in the Norton Internet Security firewall settings and attempted to add it back BUT it will not for whatever reason. Below is the diagnostics as requested.
I don't understand why v7 worked from day 1 and I had no problems, installed v8 and all these problems arise, there is someting wrong somewhere.

Can connect to guest network, not main network.

I have a Time Capsule setup that works great. I have several Macs that run fine on the network. I have one older Power PC that will connect to the Time Capsule's guest network but not the main network despite having the correct password. Every time I try it says "connection failed." Ideas?

This information tells you that the Power Mac is not capable of connecting to a network using WPA2 Personal encryption.
Since we've drifted far away from a potential Time Capsule issue at this point, your best option will be to post in one of the Power Mac forums to see if there might be a way to upgrade the operating system to a level where it would support WPA2 Personal encryption.

I cannot connect to my network. I have the Ipod 6 and my home computer is running on windows XP. My internet provider is Rogers. Any suggestions?

How can I connect to my network? I received this as a gift and I cannot get it to connect. My home computer is running on Windows XP and my internet provider is Rogers. I have a network set up. Is therese something special that I need to do to ensure that this new device can communicate with the host computer?

My router is 5 years old and I connected 5 iDevices with no issues. Your router may need a firmware update.
But the easiest thing to try first is to reboot the router - unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in. Then restart your iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and slide to shut down. Hold the sleep button again until the Apple logo appears to start up.
Some other thoughts .... Does your iPad recognize your WiFi network? Go to Settings>WiFi>Your Network Name. Can you see it?

TS1398 i have a good signal on my ipad wi fi but cannot connect to the network

I have a good wi fi connection on my ipad but cannot connect to the network

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button
