IPhone 4 having trouble connecting to wifi with redirect

Hi all,
I was wondering if someone out there can help me. I have an iPhone 4 running 5.0.1. Ever since i upgraded to iOs 5, i have noticed trouble connecting to the wifi at work. At home and school the phone connects perfectly. At work we have a redirect page. When going under safari it just uses my mobile network (which is not that strong). I check the wifi menu and it seems as if it is "trying" to connect...it shows the grey pinwheel spinning next to the correct netowrk but nothing ever happens. I try to "renew lease", i turn off wifi, i reset the phone. Sometimes it connects first try. Other times it takes HOURS. I assumed maybe it was just the network, so i attempted to try to connect my nook, and the nook connects right away. I never touched any settings, but i am very confused on to what may be going on here to explain the type of problem i am having since iOs 5. Thank you in advance.
Jenn

You'll need to provide complete details before anyone will be able to offer suggestions.
For future posts, please don't put a lot of excess characters in the subject line. Just a brief summary of the problem - e.g. "iPhone 3GS with iOS 5.01 cannot connect to WiFi" - will be sufficent. I've asked the Hosts to edit out the superfluous junk.
Regards.

Perhaps something in Apple's support article on troubleshooting problems with WiFi connections will help:

Did you already try to reset the router?
Did you reset the iPod by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again?
Did you reset the network settings on your iPod in Settings/General/Reset?

HT5569 I am having trouble connecting to wifi can you help.

I am having trouble connecting to wifi can you help.

connectng with a pin # will not work with the ipad. you need to find out exactly what the actual wifi password is.
pin and push buttons are used by wifi protected setup. which is an optional feture of WPA
here are some ideas
go to the routers home page (typically 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.254) and see if you can click on "show password"
get the manual out, it should have the default user name and password you may need to access the routers page
if your windows computer connects, then you should be able to right click the wifi connection and click on show password as well. this is somewhere in the properties page of the wifi connection
also with windows its a good idea to click on "save wifi connection to usb drive" this can be used to connect other windows computers and xbox game consoles as well
if your laptop computer is a mac book you can go to the keychain or icloud keycahin and reveal the actual passowrd as well.
look at the actual router it might have directions on a sticker on how to access the routers configuration pages
if you enter the wrong password on the ipad you need to forget the network and try again

I am having trouble connecting to wifi networks that are password secured, even though I know the passwords.

hey guys,
Ok so here is the problem. I am having trouble connecting to wifi networks that are password secured. I am able to connect to public wifi with no problem, but when networks have passwords on them I am unable to connect to them, and I know that passwords. I also know that i am putting the correct passwords in because I am able to connect to the networks on my computer. I have tried turning my phone off and then back on, turning the wifi off and then back on and even resetting my network passwords to no avail. The networks that are secure show up in the wifi list for networks but when I go to put the password in, it tells me "incorrect password for the network". It has never connected to it since the passwords have been put on it. I am out of ideas for trouble shooting. Can anyone else help?!

Try a soft reset by holding in the power button and the home button in at the same time for about 15 seconds until the screen flashes and then goes completely black. Afterwards try and turn the phone back on and see if that works. Also you could try and reset the Network Settings by going to Settings--General--Reset--Reset Network Settings and see if that resolves your problems as well. If all else fails be sure and do a backup through ITunes and then try to restore the device. Hopefully all will be well now.

Has anybody bought an Epson XP 205 cause having trouble connecting to wifi

Hhas anybody bought an Epson XP 205 cause having trouble connecting to my wifi (which is sky broadband) I have the Epson app but it cannot find the printer has anybody got any suggestions?

I am so disappointed! The exact samething has happened to me, AND my husbands Touch. We had no problems before, and as you say with 2.1 a little stared - I ignored it because I love and defend my touch. After 2.2 all heck broke loose, I went to the genius bar and of course it ran perfect there. I had numerous screen shoots in one day, 'failed to connect to server, safari server, gmail server' - timed out blah blah blah, so they suggested I call my internet provider, they run a test and everything fine, they suggest I call the router people, ten bucks later and with nothing really showing a problem with the router our Touches still do not work like they used to. I am NOT buying a iphone, I want Apple to fix it or tell me how, it worked fine before what the heck gives, I wish someone could answer honestly.
Thanks for letting me get that off my chest, I really hate to switch to Zune as my nephew has been bragging about.

Retina Macbook Pro Having Trouble Connecting To Wifi?

Hi, I have a TP Link router with a 2013 2 TB time capusle connected to it.
And My macbook pro seems to be having trouble connecting to the TP Link's network, My 5GHz network on my time capusle, and my normal 2.4GHz network on my time capusle.
When I try connecting to a network it says connecting for about 30 seconds and then comes up with a exclamation mark "!" symbol.
It will randomly start connecting and working, then maybe 10,15 minutes later it drops out for a few hours again. Im not sure what's going on.
P.S Averything else will connect (Macbook air, iPhone 5s, My iMac, My iPad mini ect.
Please Help!
James.

When you see an exclamation point in the Wi-Fi menu, from the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts. You may get a warning that Wi-Fi is not available, that you're too far from the base station, or that you're using the wrong password.
Assuming that you've ruled out those possibilities, restart the computer and try again. If there's no change, click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane and authenticate, if necessary. From the Location menu at the top of the window, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.

2.2 Generation one Ipod touch having trouble connecting to wifi

Ok, I am having a BIG issue with connecting my ipod touch to a linksys WRT54GX4 wireless router running WPA/WPA2 wireless security (there is an option that allows BOTH to be selected, but I disabled WPA2 as an option after I first started having issues with the IPOD touch wifi).
Here are all the details.
Bought the Ipod touch last December and while the firmware version was in the "1's", I had no issues connecting to the router and using the wifi functions.
After the 2.0 upgrade, I had intermittent connection issues with the router. Sometimes, I could connect to the router easily and maintain a connection; however, the MAJORITY of the time, I would select the router from the wifi list, and receive a "Cannot connect to router" error. When I could connect, I would often lose my connection after a minute or two (regardless of using safari, youtube or the email client; all three would cause the connection to drop).
Now, in 2.2, I STILL get issues connecting to the router with no seeming relief! I find that after I restart the router (power off for 30 seconds), I am able to connect, albeit with a slower connection, for a while. After I put the Ipod on "hold" after that first time, I start getting the problems I listed above with intermittent connectivity. Since I am not the only person in my household who uses my router wirelessly, powering off the router whenever I want to connect the IPOD is NOT an option!
Here are connection logs from the router, annotated by me to show different attempts to connect. I hope these can help a technician resolve my problem:

#Same here#
This is incredibly frustrating. Should I return the IPOD to an apple store and ask for a new one? Is there a setting on my router that will allow the IPOD to actually connect?
Some more information:
*Mac filtering is off.
*Encryption algorithm is TKIP
*Group renewal key is 3600 seconds
*First installed firmware 2.0 OVER 1.4. After I got wifi issues, I restored the ipod to 2.0 after a full format. Did not solve my problems.
Please help...

TS1398 Is anyone having trouble connecting to WiFi since installing iOS 6.0.1

I can not connect my iPhone 4S to any WiFi since I installed iOS 6.0.1.
I use three Mac products: Mac Air; iPad 3; and an iPhone 4s. I have not been able to connect to any WiFi since I installed 6.0.1 on my iPhone. All other devices have connected successfully to at least 7 or 8 other networks but the iPhone does not. I am writing this request for help from Pikesville, Kentucky. I live in Syracuse New York. I have been on the road since Monday. I have been in and out of motels and client's offices all week. All other devices connected sucessfully at all other locations------except, the iPhone does not.
The iPhone does not see local networks immediately. I have to turn the Wi-Fi off and back on in Settings. I get a dialogue box response immediatley (I mean instantaneoulsy) upon selecting the network once it finds it. The message states, "Unable to join the network "HolidayInnExpress" --- "Dismiss". I am writing this request from my Mac Air on the same network my iPhone refuses to join. Both the Air and iPad (iOS 6.0.1) found and joined the Holioday Inn network without any issues.
I don't remember this issue with earlier operating systems on iPhone--is there an issue with the new operating system on the iPhone?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The good (?) news is many people are have OS 6.0.1 wifi problems.
I could not connect to my home network. What eventually worked for me (twice now), though it makes no sense, is to go to the particular connection you want to use, hit the little blue arrow on the right to get the details screen. Scroll down to the bottom and change "HTTP Proxy" from "None" to "Auto". Then leave the "URL" field that pops up blank.
This should not work. However, it has for me where many other suggestions have not.
*shrug*
Best of luck.

If you are having issues connecting to wifi with your Ipad, READ THIS

My son recently could not connect to the home wifi. After almost a year of having no issues, it came on overnight sort-of-speaking. I spent over three hours doing all the resets and tried anything that was talked about online. This could be your issue too. WHEN YOU SET UP YOUR ROUTER, IT WILL HAVE A PASSCODE/PASSWORD/PASSPHRASE (different routers may call it differently), this is usually a series of letters and numbers. YOU WILL ALSO SET UP A PASSWORD TO ACCESS YOUR HOME NETWORK FROM ANY OF YOUR DEVICES. THE TWO ARE VERY DIFFERENT, THE PASSWORD THAT THE IPAD WANTS IS NOT THE NETWORK PASSWORD, IT IS THE PASSWORD OF THE ROUTER.
This makes no sense to me, but it worded. I have a CISCO router and Mercury Net for an Internet provider. As I was working on getting my issue solved, I ran across a post that said this same thing about a different router and provider, so I thought why not try it, nothing to lose. IF IT WORKED FOR TWO DIFFERENT ROUTERS AND PROVIDERS, THIS COULD BE YOUR PROBLEM AS WELL.
To start with, I did not know the passphrase to my roouter. I reset the router to factory default and followed a few steps for security and other things. Along the reset, there was a page that showed the passphrase. If you do not have your router passphrase, this may be your best bet. I am by no means a professional when it comes to computers, but I am not affraid to try a few things when needed. This was not too hard and it will not be for you either.
Good Luck
If you need more information, let me know, I will try to help.
Thanks for reading

I'm glad you had luck with this. I have the same issue, and i've replaced the droid turbo 4 times. I've tried it on 4 or 5 different wifi networks and it doesn't give me any type of speed at all.

Having trouble connecting iPod Touch with iTunes 8.2

I have a first generation iPod Touch 16GB, before the recent 8.2 iTunes update (or it may have been 8.0, I tend to ignore those annoying 'please update now messages')my iTunes worked properly, and the Touch would sync whenever I connected it.
Now when I connect the iPod to my computer it no longer shows up in iTunes, the computer (running Windows Vista Basic) recognizes the iPod is there, and the iPod charges properly. iTunes itself however is oblivious.
I've tried completely reinstalling iTunes like the support page suggests, but the problem persists, it is getting quite annoying now since I cannot get the new 3.0 OS update or put new music on.
Can anybody help?

I have the same problem, but mine won't even take a charge from the computer, or my docks. I have to plug it into a wall wart usb charger and then it works fine. Can't get my computer to recognize/sync it since the "upgrade" to 8.2. The only responses worth a crap on this topic say to just be patient because it is now a known bug they are working on. IMO I wish Apple would stop acting like MS and stop releasing stuff that hasn't been properly beta tested. This glitch has occurred for thousands of users, and any basic cross platform testing process should have revealed this problem in the first 5 minutes. Yet ANOTHER embarrassing POS from the "new" Apple.

Having trouble connecting apple tv with ethernet

I previously had my apple tv connected to a wireless bridge to connect to the internet. no for some reason it no longer wants to connect through the wireless bridge. It will work wirelessly though for some reason. It has an ip address, subnet mask number and ethernet number. there is no router address or dns number. I have tried to configure it manually but no luck. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

P.S.
Wondering if I need a different cable. I only have the HDMI running from Apple TV to the HDMI slot on the receiver. Do I need the red/yellow/white cable as well and if so, how would I connect that to Apple TV? Thx!
