IPad 2 wifi issue with Apple Time Capsule + Screen bleed.

I have an iPad 1, iMac, Macbook Pro and two iPhone 4s all successfully working on wifi with my Time Capsule.
I have two networks set up on the time capsule both 5GHz and regular N.
My new iPad 2 can see both networks and acepts the passphrase to connect to them but I can't get to the internet via Safari.
I can use the internet when connected on 3G but neither of the wifi networks work!
I've tried rebooting, forgetting and reconnecting the network etc to no avail.
It's currently on 4.3.1 and I'm just downloading 4.3.2 to see if that helps.
Either way I think I'm going to have to take this one back as it has TERRIBLE screen bleed too!
Has anyone else seen similar wifi problems?
Thanks

Try updating the firmware on your router. The latest firmware is available here:

You should also move to WPA2 security.

  • Wrt320n with Apple Time Capsule in Wireless sharing mode

    Hi!
    I try to connect my LinkSys wrt320n with Apple Time Capsule with mode "sahring existing wireless network" and so Time capsule doesn't work. It gets IP, but writes "isn't internet connection, WiFi network don't find" and also in the admipage of my wrt320 I can't see Time Capsule as client. 
    Is it possible to make this mode with these two?
    Thanks for your advice and solutions.

    For setting up the Time Capsule to work as a wireless station, the WAN port should be connected to a modem. In your case, the WAN port should be connected to the to the ethernet port of the router since the modem is already connected to the Linksys. By the way, you don't need to setup a wireless station anymore since you already have a router, unless it serves as another purpose. In addition to that, if you want to setup the TC to do backup then you cannot use it as a wireless station anymore. It can only serve one purpose at a time, depending on the type of settings being set.

  • Windows 7 Blue Screen Errors (with Apple Time Capsule)

    Can anyone tell me whether Apple has found a way to make the Apple Time Capsule work with Windows 7 without causing a blue screen error every time it is used? BTW, it works perfectly on Windows XP and Windows Vista.
    Note: The Apple Time Capsule does not yet support Windows 7 (see specifications).

  • Extending a wifi network with a time capsule

    My broadband router (BT) can only go in my office and is the same room that my iMac is located.
    Is there any way that I can connect my Time Capsule to either my BT wireless router or my iMac via WiFi and us the Time Capsule as another wifi base station.
    Idelaly I want the Time Capsule in the hallway so that I can connect via WiFo from my living room.
    Currently the living room is too far from my office to connect to my BT router via WiFi.

    Unfortunately, no...unless you want to connect the Time Capsule to the BT router using a wired Ethernet connection or by using Ethernet over Powerline (EOP) adapters.
    You need two Apple routers to be able to "extend" using wireless only......since this feature only works among Apple wireless routers.
    If you connected an Apple router to the BT router using a wired Ethernet connection and configured the Apple router to "create a wireless network", then you could use the Time Capsule to "extend" that same network using wireless only.

  • Home Hub 4 with Apple Time Capsule

    Hi all,
    New to BT and, so far, all OK and really impressed with the speed. Trying to use with an Apple Time Capsule though and an Airport Express (for wireless printer) but no so easy. I have read so many posts about using bridge mode and setting us as follows but it will not work for me!
    1 : 'Connect Using' select PPPoE
    2 : 'Account Name' enter '[email protected]'
    3 : 'Password' and 'verify password' enter a single space (as in press the space bar once). 
    The only way I can get this to work is to choose 'Connect Using' and choosing DHCP instead of PPPoE. 
    Is there a reason why the usual 'Connect Using' PPPoE is not working with my setup - is there something else I am doing wrong?
    Thanks in advance

    Try using BT or anything else rather than just pressing space bar for your password.

  • Will HP Designjet 500 work with Apple Time Capsule?

    I have an Apple Time Capsule Base station and was wondering if it would be able to allow my dad's Dell Precisions (M4500 and M4700) to print to it wirelessly. We had a part of our basement finished for his new office and his plotter (HP Designjet 500) is outside the office, about 20ft away from both his laptops and my Time Capsule is on a shelf just above it. I'm just curious as it's an old plotter from like, 2001 so its old.

    Really don't know but it is worth a go..
    Simply plug the printer into the TC via its USB port.
    On the PC load the airport utility for windows, whichever version he uses.. but the latest version utility is 5.6.1 for win7. That will also load bonjour for windows which is a big help to using network resources like printers.. you can then use the airport utility to make sure the TC has picked up the printer.
    Then load the printer and have a shot at printing.
    Suck and See.

  • I'm having issues with my Time Capsule Generation 3. The wifi range no longer extends past 30 or so feet and it happened very suddenly. Any ideas?

    My Time Capsule Gen 3 which I have had for around 5 years and had been working like a champ for that time suddenly won't extend the wifi range past 25 to 30 feet. It happened quite suddenly and is wreaking havoc in the house. Any ideas on what the problem could be and any thoughts on quick and affordable solutions?

    5 years is well and truly past the lifespan of modern domestic electronics that does 24/7 operation.
    SImply replace it.
    You can get a Gen5 AE second hand dirt cheap now.. around $50. and they have much better wireless than earlier gen TC.
    Otherwise just get another new TC.

  • IPad WiFi issue with T-Mobile & DeepBlueWireless

    Hi,
    both, the WiFi-only and the 3G model definitely have an issue with at least the above mentioned two WiFi Hotspot suppliers.
    I'm currently on vacation in California and neither of the two WiFis work with the iPad. The both work fine with our iPhones and with our MacBook. But not with our iPads.
    Symptom: getting the necessary IP addresses from the DHCP server works fine. After that the Hotspot web pages come in fine, too. However, clicking on the "Log In" button doesn't work anymore. Nothing happens. After a while, even the "Cancel" or back buttons don't work and the web content isn't movable with a finger. Only the iPad's Home button helps.
    It's reproducable all the time.
    After 1/2 hour on the phone with the DeepBlueWireless support they said I have to talk to Apple. T-Mobile answered very quickly on Twitter but they couldn't help either and said they don't support the iPad because they don't have it (AT&T has it here in the US).
    Apple seems to point to the WiFi provider and their router settings. However, this fingerpointig doesn't help me, the customer.
    I'm afraid, there's nothing I can do about that problem. Either Apple releases a new OS 3.2.1 with a fix for that problem or the WiFi providers like T-Mobile tweak their router settings to make them compatible with Apple's specifications. Both can last long.
    Bad for the customer!
    Anyone else having these problems?

    Thx for the tips. However, my experience is that Apple has a huge problem here (which they already kind of admitted).
    During our 3 weeks vacation I was almost NEVER able to connect to the WiFi networks the hotels provided. Be it T-Mobile or other suppliers it's always the same problem. The technical connection with the network works (the iPad gets IP addresses, those networks are open and need no WEP/WPA/WPA2 password). But when the Login page from the access point appears, after entering username & password and pressing the Login button, nothing happens anymore. Especially the indeterminate progress indicator in the status bar doesn't start whirling and the Login page becomes unresponsive. Even the Cancel button from the iPhone OS (not on the HTML Login page) doesn't work, I have to press the iPad's Home button.
    None of the known workarounds worked (display brightness etc.)
    Waiting for the firmware update ...

  • Airport 802.11g and WIFI issues with Apple bluetooth keyboard

    Hey guys, this thing start to drive me crazy, I bought a Apple BT keyboard but just recently I started to having problems with my wifi connection and apparently I think this is due to the BT keys.
    I started to notice this issue when I moving with the laptop in another room where usually I had maximum Airport signal, now it's happening that the signal start to lose power and when is just to the minimum, internet or other net staff don't work anymore and after 5 minutes of this apparently "freeze" wifi status, the airport loose definitely the signal.
    After that I need to turn off the Airport card, most of the time work but sometimes i need to turn off two times to get it works.
    After I read different blogs and forum, I tried to change channel, use the interference robustness, anything, and at the ending I reinstalled Leo, still have this problem, so I started to turn off the bluetooth connection and it look's like when the signal start to lose power the network keep working, and than reprise the maximum power.
    So I can really fix this issue or is another "well done" by Apple? It look's like the Apple industry getting so close to the trash world! I'm sorry for these last words but my disappointed in Apple getting bigger.
    Thank you for anyone helps.
    P.S. a friend of mine with a Macbook Pro, Snow Leopard and my same Airport Base station have the same issue.

    GuyI just fixed for now the problem turning off the bluetooth keyboard when I have wifi issues, it's the only solutions!

  • I am having wireless connectivity issues with my time capsule

    Over the last 3 days my wireless devices have been having issues with connectivity.
    Network setup:
    Modem - Motorola SB5102 Cable Modem
    1 TB Time Capsule 802.11n (second generation)
    The devices are approximately 3 feet apart.
    Wired Device:
    Mac Pro (2008 build) running OSX 10.6.8, Airport Utility 5.6.1
    Wireless Devices:
    Playstation 3
    Macbook Air
    iPhone 5c
    iPhone 4
    I am having issues with internet connectivity. The wireless signal strength is fine as all devices can find the network. However when connected to the network accessing the internet on the Macbook Air, or either iPhone is slow and streaming services such as Netflix cannot connect. I have intermitant connectivity to the Playstation Network on the PS3.
    I have wired both the Macbook Air and PS3 directly to the Time Capsule and have no issues, internet is accessible and streaming services are fine.
    I have power cycled all the devices (Time Capsule, macbook, iphones, PS3, modem) to no result.
    I am looking for any other suggestions that may help me with my wireless connectivity issue.

    A Gen2 TC is probably on its last gasp.. and it is well overdue for replacement.
    If you want to get more life out of it you normally need to repair or replace the internal power supply.. This is not done by apple or any of their repair centres.
    Just do ebay search and you will find sellers with replacement supplies.
    Otherwise to test, do a full factory reset..
    I would also downgrade the firmware.. 7.5.2 will work just as well for you and has less bugs than 7.6.x firmware.
    To downgrade hold down the option key when you select firmware version.
    The Factory Reset universal
    Unplug your TC/AE. Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on..  all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. The time is not important.. it is the front LED rapid flashing that indicates you are in factory mode.
    Release reset.
    If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have released reset at some point and try again.
    Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel..  add no more pressure after that.
    TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
    No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.

  • Issues with two time capsules in one network

    I have two time machines in my environment and issues with dropped connections.
    As long as I use only my iMac or Apple MacBook Pro the connections work 90% of the time, I do have some issues with dropped (afp/smb) connections and unable to reconnect every now and then.
    However, invariably when I connect a windows machine to the network both time machine connections just die, including the internet connection, I had to restart one of the time machines in order to reconnect. I do have a Guest Network and connecting the windows machine to that network does not affect the time machines availability.
    Is having two time machines in the environment not supported?
    Why do I experience these drops in connections to the online disks?
    Why can't I have a mixed environment (win/mac) connect to the time machines at the same time?
    One time machine is the AP and the other one is just extending that network.
    I have seen issues in the following scenarios
    Copying large amounts of data from iMac to time machine
    Copying large amounts of data from one time machine to the other
    Connecting a windows computer to the network
    Any ideas?

  • Wifi Working With New Time Capsule But Can't See It To Configure Settings?

    I had an airport extreme but recenlty purchased an airport time capsule. When I initially plugged it in, by airport utlity saw it and it asked me to set up a password. But then I noticed there was no internet signal getting to the time capsule. We wound up replacing the DSL Router and now the internet is up and running. But now when I open the airport icon, the time capsule doesn't even show up. When I open the airport utility through finder it shows the time capsule but blocks me from accessing anything. So I can't go into any set up configuration for changing passwords, setting up guest network or setting up the back up to the time capsule. I don't see any downloads for a new utility for the time capsule, so I'm assuming it's the same as for the airport extreme? What do I need to do in order to be able access the configuration areas?

    Reboot the TC.. it is hard for poor OSX to find it.
    No luck.
    Just press reset and start again.
    Do a new clean setup.. please use all SMB names this time, short, no spaces and pure alphaumeric.
    Ensure ipv6 is set to link-local on both the wireless and ethernet if you use it. Wireless is essential even if you use ethernet you cannot do setups without wireless.
    Still got trouble??
    What is the OS on the computer and therefore version of the airport utility.. you will have huge problems with Mavericks.. as that is its nature.

  • HT1218 i have a windows 8 computer that is not connecting with my time capsule wifi. my other macs and windows 7 systems do connect. is this a firmware update glitch? any suggestions?

    I have a windows 8 computer that is connecting poorly via wifi and my Apple time capsule to the internet. My IMac an another windows 7 based computer are connecting fine. This started 6 days ago. And, the windows 8 machine connects well via a hard Cat-5 connection to the time capsule (I'm using that now) and worked well on a wireless netgrear system over the weekend.
    I'm thinking an automatic firmware update may have caused this or perhaps i need the time capsule to use something other than a default address. Those are just guesses, but I could sure use some help. Thank you.

    It is hard to figure where the issue is..
    Certainly if windows updated the wireless driver that can mess things up no end..
    What update happened 6days ago?
    What TC do you have.. ?? If it is flat one and you updated to 7.6.4 do a factory reset and reconfigure.
    If that doesn't work roll the firmware back to 7.6.1 or even 7.5.2 as these are generally superior to windows.
    There is no update for TC gen5 yet.

  • My macbook pro is connected to internet via my time capsule but my iPad and iPhone won't. it shows wifi connection to the time capsule but when i go on to the internet on the iPad or iPhone, it comes up with network error. can anyone help?

    my macbook pro is connected to internet via my time capsule but my iPad and iPhone won't. it shows wifi connection to the time capsule but when i go on to the internet on the iPad or iPhone, it comes up with network error. can anyone help?

    This can be caused by a number of issues.
    Was everything working and then suddenly stopped??
    Or is this a new clean setup and has never worked.
    Do you have a cable modem which is not a router and the TC setup in bridge? That will cause it. The TC must be in router mode, ie dhcp and nat.
    Check the IP the MBP gets including dns and gateway..
    Then check the ipad/iphone.. post what IP dns and gateway (router in applespeak) they get.

  • Why did carefully over heating my 4s restore the wifi function? This, after 2 months of mysteriously grey out wifi buttons, loads of time trying to resolve issue with apple tech only to be told I must pay $199 to repair the problem. I'm disillusioned now

    Why did carefully over heating my 4s restore the wifi function? This, after 2 months of mysteriously grey out wifi buttons, loads of time trying to resolve issue with apple tech only to be told I must pay $199 to repair the problem. I'm disillusioned now

    Is the Wi-Fi button greyed out?  Try this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559
    Also, make a backup to iTunes of the device.  Then restore it as a new device.  If you still have wi-fi greyed out, then contact Apple again, and explain that you believe you have a hardware issue.  They may still ask for a $19 deposit, but if it is actually hardware related, then you won't be charged the $19.  Only if it is software related do you get charged that $19.
