IPad can't connect to router

Hi,
I have a WRT320N router with firmware version 1.0.01 build 008.  I just got an iPad and while it can find my router, I can't access the WiFi when I enter my password.  I can use the router with my laptop so I know the connection and password are ok.
I've seen two administrators on here suggest the same thing.  And one person responded that it worked.  The identical directions were: 
Try changing some advanced wireless settings on the router.
Connect the computer to the router with the Ethernet cable. Open the setup page of the router.
Click on wireless tab and set the configuration view to manual. Change the wireless channel to 11. Save the settings.
Go to wireless tab and click on Advanced wireless settings.
Change Beacon interval to 75, RTS threshold to 2307 and fragmentation threshold to 2306. Save the settings.
Try to connect to the wireless network again and see if that works.
My problems are:
1 - I think my computer already is connected to the router with the Ethernet cable - I mean there is an Ethernet cable attached to both my computer and my router - in slot 1 on the router
2 - the only thing I know how to access is the Linksys EasyLink Advisor.  What and where is the setup page of the router? 
Thanks - I'd hate to think that if I can't get my router to work, I just wasted the savings on a WiFi only iPad and instead will have to get one of those devices to attach to the iPad that allows you to connect to the internet wirelessly - like the "Clear" device.
Solved!

Thanks gv.  I'm not so knowledgable as to change the LAN of my router.  So I did what you said, as a former colleague used to yell at us "read the **bleep** manual" 
I was able to change the settings as suggested in the advanced wireless tab.  But, in the basic wireless settings tab, I don't have the option of channel 11.  What I have are:
36
40
44
48
149
153
157
161
And I can only change the channel if I select a channel width of 20MHz only.  My other option is 20MHz or 40MHz but that option does not allow channel selection, channel is set to auto instead.
I really appreciate any help I can get.  I'm quite the novice and get frustrated easily.  Thanks!

    Second device (my NETBOOK) connect to second router (WiFi).
    I have good communication between NETBOOK and HP Laser JET 1536 dnf MFP via WiFI-bridge.
    In usual case NETBOOK can find (and can Ping) network printer and make a print some files.
    But my Ipad or Iphone can't find HP Laser JET 1536 dnf MFP (using Eprint). Ipad and iphone connect

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

  • My ipad can't connect to air printer?

    my ipad can't connect to air printer?

    Restart your router. Unplug it and let it reset.
    While you do that you might as well power down the printer and restart the iPad / iPhone as well.
    Power everything back up, and AirPrint should be restored.

  • I updated my software in my iPad, can't connect to App Store or iTunes, It says that I have to change to US account, right now I'm in Mexico, how can I change it to mu US account.

    I updated my software in my iPad, can't connect to App Store or iTunes, It says that I have to change to US account, right now I'm in Mexico, how can I change it to my US account

    Back up all data.
    Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
              8.8.8.8
              8.8.4.4
    That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
    In Safari, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
    Notes:
    1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the  Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself. Remember that you must click Apply in order for any changes to take effect.
    2. I don't use Google DNS myself, though I have tested it, and I'm not recommending it or any other DNS provider; the server addresses are offered merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist.

  • Can't Connect to Router Manager

    I want to review the Router Statistics but can't get connected.
    I have typed in the address,  
    http://192.168.1.1/
    Also tried via the Router Icon &  
    http://voyager220v.home/
     but get message "Can't Connect to Router"
    All other web sites are easy to get into.
    Any idea of why this problem is occurring?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Have you tried rebooting the Voyager or resetting it to default by pressing the recessed reset button.
    Are all the lights on at the front, and the correct brightness?
    Failure of the Voyager 220V power supply was fairly common, but any 12V regulated power unit will work, if it has failed.
    The Voyager range of modems were some of the best, I still have quite a few as standby routers and extra wireless points.

    Ipad can not connect to the pc flashes on the inscription of trust ...

    You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • EA6500 can't connect to Router after Time Machine

    Just got an EA6500 - updated to the latest available firmware.
    I've attached 2 x WD NAS and 1 x WD via USB to the unit.
    Everytime AFTER I finished running Time Machine on the MacBookPro (writing to one of the WD NAS), I can no longer login to the router neither from the local IP address nor the cisco cloud connect. The error message that I get (loosely phrased) is: can't connect to Router. Please ensure the router is connected to the internet.
    At this point, all the devices connected to the router (both wired and wireless) still can access the Internet perfectly. Only the router console is no longer reachable.
    Anyone else are having the issue?
    Any ideas on how to resolve it?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Contacted Cisco support and the person advised me to do a factory reset (eventhough the router is brand new with no customization!!). Regardless, it now works properly. Cisco Cloud Connect still works before, during and after a Time Machine session.

    That would simply activate a broadband data service to use wherever Wi-Fi is not available. But those plans cost money. Wi-Fi is free in most cases.

    Try a soft reset or turn the device completely off then turn it back on again. Also you can toggle Airplane mode on for about 10 seconds and then turn it off. Sometimes that resets the radio signal inside the device.
    A soft reset is basically holding onto the power button and the home button simultaneously together for about 10 seconds or until you see the screen flash and it should go completely black. Afterwards, tun the device back on like normally and see if that fixes the problem.

    I can't connect my router (WRT54GL) to my new cable modem (Motorola Surfboard SB6120).
    Some info:
    1)  Cable modem works perfectly when connected directly to computer ethernet port
    2)  ISP is Optimum Online
    3)  Using Automatic DHCP setting on router
    4)  Using MAC cloning on router
    5)  I can access the router's admin screen from the PC
    6)  I can connect to the router wirelessly, but no internet access
    7)  I've tried powering down everything multiple times, still no internet access
    8)  I upgraded the router firmware to 4.30.14
    9)  The "link" light on the cable modem never lights up when connected to the router
    10)  This is very frustrating
    Thanks

    Hi
    I've tried two ethernet cables, no luck.  On the router, I get lights for Power, WLAN and the ethernet port that the pc is connected to.  The "internet" light is not lit.
    When the modem is connected directly to pc the link is lit up, just not when it's connected to router.
    The internet light won't turn on as you need to plug something on the WAN port. And that should be the cable coming from the modem.
    When you connected your pc directly to the modem, do you get internet access?
