Imac can't connect wired, but wifi works
Hellu!
Just bought a DSL-N55U modem/router (ADSL connection), seems to be a good one.
I'm the only one in the house with Mac, and I'm the only one that cant connect wired (LAN).
The other use windows and it works fine for them ..
I can connect to the router thru the wifi and it works. but i need to get online with wire.
Everytime i connect with wire
It goes online for 2 seconds, (The iMac gets a IP and internet works fine) but then it timeouts
and it repeats ...
So as soon i get online .. it kicks me out or something.
I have tried change a lot of router settings but nothing works.
I also tried to remove the network preferences and created new ones ..
Maybe i need to remove some settings or files on the iMac? i don't know ..
Please help!
I live in Sweden, and using a ADSL connection!
Change the ethernet cable to a new one, try a different port on the router.
I did these but it doesn't work unless I unplug the router.
Upgrade or re-install the drivers for your LAN card in the computer.
What is LAN card?
Why do I unplug the router then things will work? there should not be anything wrong with my hardware, right?

Outlook client can't connect in but OWA works
You need to make sure your OutlookAnywhere and AutoDiscover settings are setup properly along with Split-DNS. OutlookAnywhere and Split-DNS are vital for future-proofing your Exchange configuration and making it work properly now, regardless if you use Exchange 2007, 2010, or 2013. For Exchange 2013, OutlookAnywhere is a requirement and Split-DNS is Best Practice. If you are on Exchange 2007 or 2010, and you do not have OutlookAnywhere enabled, enable OutlookAnywhere and follow this guide.You should always use NTLM over Basic authentication, as Basic sends the username and password in the clear, and NTLM is Windows Authentication. On Exchange 2013, you also have a new option called Negotiate, which is recommended. As you follow this guide, you will set the ClientAuthenticationMethod (Internal and External if on Exchange 2013) to NTLM...

I have a MacBook Pro. My mac can detect wifi. But will not connect anywhere. I did get connected via TCP/IP settings but I can't connect to any wifi anywhere. Network diagnostic has a green light for wi-fi and wi-fi settings. Red light for the rest. (Network settings, ISP, Internet and server.)
Hello NotAppleSavy,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the computer wont connect to networks. I see you have used network diagnostic. I would recommend that you read this article, there are a lot of other things you can do in this article that may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

My iPhone 4s has been update as I said in subject bar.. Now can't connect to any of my cars Bluetooth systems. Also even more frustratingly can't connect to any wifi networks at home or work!!
How can apple put out such an update that causes so much grief and inconvenience to hundreds of people. Not to mention risking lives with Bluetooth kits not working...outraged!!!!!!First, grow up. Just because YOUR phone isn't working, doesn't mean Apple put out bad software. I've not had any difficulty, nor has anyone else I know. And just how is Apple risking lives with Bluetooth kits not working? It's YOUR decision to talk on the phone or text and drive. Not Apple's.
We're users here, volunteering our time to help others. Posts like yours, which are whiny and ranting, simply means we're likely to ignore you and not provide you with any help. Not to mention, it makes you look absolutely foolish.
Further making you look foolish is the fact that you haven't even asked a technical support question, nor have you provided anyone here with any troubleshooting steps you might have taken, including those recommended in the user guide.

Can't Connect to any WiFi network
I just got my iPhone yesterday and I'm already having a serious problem,I can't connect to any WiFi networks.
I can see the networks around me and I can select networks that I've setup and I know are open or I know the security passwords, I can even enter the network passwords for the ones that require them and it accepts them without complaint. When I select a network I get a little check mark next to that network which I assumes means it should be connected to that network. However, the iPhone never actually connects to them, i.e. no IP address, no router no nothing in the network settings screen for each network, and always appears to the using the Edge wireless network when accessing the internet.
I've tried DHCP and static IP but neither works.
I updated the phones software to 1.1.4, has anybody reported problems like this with this or any version of the software.
Any help would be much appriciated.
If I can't get this resolved today I'm returning to the AT&T store tonight for a new one.
Thanks
Matt S.theevilone,
I have personally used an iPhone with routers from D-Link, Netgear, Linksys, Apple and Belkin.
Some routers, regardless of manufacturer need to have their firmware updated. Generally speaking if you look at the release notes, the same updates that resolve issues with DHCP for game systems and PDAs, also resolves them for the iPhone.
In addition hardware or MAC address filtering can cause issues where you connect to the network and not get DHCP.
Hope this helps,

How can i connect ipad mini wifi+celluar to 2g internet plan
Hello Sir!
After weeks of testing, i found the solution of my question. It´s quiet simply!!
1º iPhone (3G Internet acess) connected to Mac mini by USB or BlueTooth or WiFi.
2ª in Mac mini must be activated in "Preferencias", "Compartir", the option "Compartir Internet",
"Compartir Conexión desde": iPhone USB or Bluetooth PAN
"Con otros Ordenadores vía": Ethernet
3º Ethernet cable must be connected from Mac mini to Time Capsule !!
4º In Time Capsule "Internet": connect by: DHCP
"Network": bridged
Nothing more!!! Sooooo simply!!
After this, Windows XP SP3 connect without problem over TC´s WiFi or Ethernet to the Internet!
Also other Devices like IPad, or other iPhone, etc.
Of course it can be a created a WiFi connection (PPP) between the iPhone and the Mac
and it´s working to.
But ALWAYS, by changing the connection mode, must be changed the Thethering mode.
In- and Out-Going!
Thank you for your help, no I made me a "small" TC expert...lol -

Try rebooting the router. Whether or not it is working with other devices does not matter.

Hello!
My iPod Touch 3g is giving me trouble. I can't connect to my Wifi-network at home. I've tried to restart both Ipod and Router. I've trided to rebooth wifi settings.
The wierd thing is that i can connect to the network when i remove the security password, i use the WPK security. But i don't want to have it open like that all the time, what can be worng?
Thankful for help!
/GlennHere's the encryption protocols that I know - WEP, WPA, WPA2. I'm not familiar with WPK.
When you set up your router WEP is the least preferred as it requires that limit your password characters based on the strength of encryption (5 characters, 48 bit; 13 characters, 128 bit). For WPA and WPA2 you have a choice between personnel and enterprise. Personnel is what you want for home use. You should also see the term PSK (pre-shared key) which just means that all devices use the same password.
Passwords on the touch are case sensitive so be sure considering that when typing. -
Can't connect to my wifi it says ( a connection timeout occurred) !!
Can't connect to my wifi it says ( a connection timeout occurred) !!
Sometimes, but not all the time, network colision does happen. That may cause your "connection timed out" message. It may also be caused by having too many devices hooked up and you are getting an ip address that's already being used.
If you know how to configure your netgear router, try to get into it's settings and see how many devices are actually hooked up and start taking some off that aren't being used.
Also, go to the wireless section of your router and see what channel it's on. Usually defaults at channel 7. Try changing that channel until you get a good connection with your MB. -
Can't connect ipad to wifi after upgrading to ios6
can't connect ipad to wifi after upgrading to ios6
Additional things to try.
Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi. (This is probably not practical in your situation.)
On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.
If none of the above suggestions work, look at this link.

Can't connect to my wifi. Err msg is incorrect password. Could it be WPA vs. WEP?
Can't connect to my WiFi. Msg is incorrect password. I am typing it correctly! All my other devices connect to my WiFi no problem. My wireless router is WPA. The only options on Apple TV menu is WEP. Is this a problem?
Yes, that is the problem.

Some of my Apps don't connect to the internet. For example, NY Times Web App, says it can't connect. But when I access it from Safari it does (it is a web site and the App just accesses it form the desktop of the IPAD). I have a number of Apps like this. I've removed and reinstalled and it doesn't help. Please help!
Thank you.On the wireless networks that your Mac has had trouble connecting to, do you know which Wireless Security type (WEP, WPA, or WPA2) is being used?
If it is WEP, one of the problems is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP. In order to make things easier, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling the use of simple easy to remember WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys. The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a non-Apple client and vice versa.
