IPhone 4s will not join Netgear wireless network at home

Since my upgrade to iPhone 4s & OS 5 my phone will not connect to wireless network @ home via a Netgear router: asks for password & then tells me it's an incorrect password. My iMac, iPad & MacBook are all able to join this network, as is my husband's iPhone (one generation older). In addition, my new phone will connect to wireless at work. Any help would be so welcomed!!

since you join with iphone 4s? you mean upgrade to iOS 6?

Iphone 4 will not connect to wireless network

I have went to phone settings and connect to a network. The phone says known networks will be joined automatically. I clicked on my network, put in my passcode and it does nothing. I'm doing this to print pictures from my iphone 4 to my wireless printer.

I believe being able to print wirelessly is the best invention ever! With that being said, are you using the Air Print on the iPhone?

Have you been able to get a WiFi connection on the phone?

IPhone 4S "could not scan for wireless networks" WIFI NOT WORKING?

Ok, so I understand there is a million threads on this same issue... YOU'D think it would be fixed by now?
What I don't understand is why the wifi isn't working?
I just got the iPhone 4S yesterday, I already have an iPhone 4. The iPhone 4 is consistently using my home wifi while I am at home PERFECTLY. My iPhone 4 is updated to the latest software too iOS 5.1.
My iPhone 4S will not connect to wifi. I am entering the right WPA user & pass. It is updated with iOS 5.1.
My iPad, iMac, Macbookpro, & iPod ALL have NO TROUBLE connecting to my home wifi.
I do not understand how this is a wireless router issue when it works with all of my other Apple devices BUT the iPhone4S?
I have tried everything under the sun, restart reboot, turn off, turn on, switch network off, switch it on, reset this, reset that?
PLEASE HELP ME! I have never been this disappointed in Apple (as you can tell I own everything by Apple, so I am quite the fan..)
What the ****?

Could this be the problem?
iPhone 4 Modem Firmware : 3.0.04
iPhone 4S Modem Firmware : 2.0.10
Wifi is working on my iPhone 4, NOT on 4S -
Why is my new 4S I got yesterday using a 2.0.10 firmware, isn't that old?! Isn't the newest 4.0+?
I am so tired of trying to figure this out.
The Wi-Fi addresses in the About settings are different on both phones too.

Iphone 4s "Could not scan for wireless networks"

I haven't had any issues with wifi except for today, when I noticed that my phone would not recognize my home wifi. I checked, and the wifi here is working fine. My roommate's iphone is connecting fine. My laptop is connecting fine. When I try to connect manually to my network, I get the message "could not scan for wireless networks". I have tried restarting my phone. I've tried just turning wifi/airplane mode on and off and there is no improvement. I've also reset network settings and still nothing.
Forgive my ignorance, but I am not a tech person so if anyone can help you kind of need to phrase things like you're talking to a small child. Please though, if anyone has any suggestions I would SO appreciate it!

My iMac will not display my wireless networks, any suggestions?

I have 3 wireless netowrks in my house. My iMac will only display the one that is for my home automation system and it is not connected to the internet. Any suggestions on this? When I click the wireless icon at the top it only shows 1 network, it won't display my other network or my neighbours networks. When I try to add one of the other networks in my house, it will not find them.

Wifi on iPhone 3G will not connect to any networks

My iPhone 3G appears to no longer want to connect to any wifi networks.
I have two encrypted networks at home, both of which it is authorised on, and last week it decided not to play on either network. I have trouble-shooted (trouble-shot?) this by doing the following:
- factory reset of iPhone (no restore of my settings)
- unprotect wifi networks & try to connect
- try to connect to known open public wifi networks
- cycle wifi on and off again on phone
- cycle airplane mode on and off
- cycle phone on and off (hard reset)
- restore of my settings to iPhone and try connections again as per above
In all cases I get the same message telling me the iPhone was unable to connect to the wireless network but no other information.
I'm suspecting a hardware fault, but before I lose my iPhone to a couple of weeks diagnostic testing does anyone have any suggestions for other things i could try to see if I can get it working.
Thanks
Andy

Yea - I've tried public wifi hotspots too (many of them which I know worked before) and none of them can be connected to.
I fear I will be phone less for a few days while Apple assess this to see if there is a fault with it.

HP LaserJet M1120 MFP will not print on wireless network with Windows 8.1 operating system

The printer worked on the wireless network with Windows 8.
I have been advised that it does not work with windows 8.1 because a driver is required. However this is not available to download.
It is ridiculous that by having the latest operating system I am unable to use the HP printer on the wireless network
When will HP have the driver to download?

Officejet pro 8600 will not connect to wireless network

I have an new Officejet Pro 8600 that I am trying to set up. I have run the the wireless network setup wizard multiple times. It recognizes the wireless network router asks for the WEP code and then thinks for about 5 minutes before returning a message: "Unable to connect to the network"
The wireless network test results suggestes that MAC address filtering may be the problem. There is no MAC filtering function activated on our wireless router.
The wireless router is a Verizon Actiontec MI424-WR 802.11 b & n
We have computers running both Windows XP and MAC OS X.
One of the reasons that we purchased this printer is for the wireless capabilities. If it will not conect to the web then it may be going back.

Hello,
Based on the provided details, I believe the issue have something to do with the wireless security settings of your router.
Please follow the steps below to access the Advanced Security Settings:
http://www22.verizon.com/ResidentialHelp/FiOSInternet/Networking/Setup/ActiontecMI424/125511.htm
Below you will see the Network Authentication settings.
Select either Open System Authentication or Both.
Shared Key Authentication is not supported by the printer, and i believe this might be the cause for the connection failure.
Please let me know of any change,
Shlomi

PDF Document will not print on wireless network

Recently purchased Fujitsu laptop with Vista Home Premium O/S, 2.4 Gig chip, 2 Gig Ram. Printer is Canon Image Class 880 multi-function printer. I am able to print Microsoft Word documents via the wireless network and can also print documents off of the web on the wireless network, except for downloaded PDF files.
When I try to print a PDF file, the print box will come up and show the correct printer. When I click OK in the print box, a "Progress" dialog box comes up and indicates "preparing" as a percentage of the total document the computer is trying to send to the printer. Then, the box turns grey, and a message comes up saying Adobe Reader had a problem and has shut down. Also, Windows Document Execution Prevention then comes up saying a problem caused the program to stop working correctly.
I'm not sure which version of Adobe reader came with the computer, but it was upgraded to 8.1.2 on 2/12/08.
Any helpful ideas will be appreciated.
Regards,
Dan Roberts

PC will not connect to wireless network

I have desktop P6620p with Windows 7. Until yesterday I was using mobile hotspot to connect to Internet via wireless connection. Yesterday evening I started having problems, I couldn't connect, the computer could not even find the wireless network there was nothing wrong with the mobile hot spot because the internet connection on my laptop woked just fine). Later, the computer completely crashed and our only option was to go back to "factory settings" (fun). Now, we have tried to start over but we still have the same problem with the wireless network, it won't connect because it won't even find the network.I tried to troubleshoot but it didn't help. I am not computer specialist, we are out of warranty and we had that computer only little over 2 yrs. Anyone can help? Thanks.

Hi ivanka4233,
I see that you are having problems connecting to your wireless hotspot, is that correct?
I have a few troubleshooting steps that you can try. Here is a link to those steps.
They will differ somewhat because you are using a hotspot and not a router.
Microsoft also has some helpful tips on connecting, here is that link.
If following those steps do not help then I would like for you to try the following:
Click Start, type command prompt in the Search Programs and files box, right-click Command Prompt and then click Run as administrator.
Type the following command: netsh winsock reset
Let me know if this helps.

7525 Wirelessly connected, loses internet connection, will not print from wireless network

Have a 7525 Photosmart printer (approx 7 months in service) that has been working great until now. I had to change the dsl/wireless router over the weekend and now I can't print wirlessly from the network. According to the printer diagnostics, the printer is connected to the network but each time I try to print, the computer being used can't find the printer. Checking the Wireless Network Test Results page, all is fine except there is no internet connection. Restoring the internet connection requires a 're-boot' of the printer, i.e., switching it off and unplugging, after which network printing is restored. However, that only lasts for a very short time, less than 1 minute, then no more network printing.
I think there is something fishy with the IP address. HP Print and Scan Doctor can't find the printer using this address. Typing the IP address into the browser gets an error message that the page cannot be found. That address should lead you to the printer page, but it does not. Changing the router resulted in an IP address change for the printer, but I wasn't even able to manually set the IP address via HP troubleshooting as it required the ability to get to the printer page from the IP address.
I am rambling on, but I have reached my knowledge limit and hope that someone can give me some other suggestions on what to try next. Thanks

Hi Seenders and welcome to the HP Forum,
I understand that you are having connection issues with the printer on the network. I will try my best to help you resolve this issue. In this document for Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection are different solutions that may resolve your connections issues. Once you have the printer up on the network make sure you update the IP Address on your computer.
I hope this information is useful. Let me know how it works out.
Thank you,
I worked on behalf of HP.

IPhone 4S - Could not scan for wireless networks - help needed please

Hi
Can anyone offer any advice please.
My 4s has developed an wifi issue. It cant scan for wireless networks My bluetooth is intermittent also.
I have turned it on/off, rebooted, reset all networks, reset to factory settings, set to airplane mode, set to do not disturb - everything and all to no avail.
I am under a two year contract with Vodafone and went into their branch at Merry Hill, Dudley today and they failed to help me saying it was nothing to do with them.
I am at a loss as to what to do. I have not had any accident with my phone and it is still in mint condition.
Can anyone please offer any suggestions on what to do.
Many thanks.

Apple's out-of-warranty policy is a feeble attempt at covering up it's issues and is a clear cut demonstration for their lack of respect for its user base. Their WIFI/Bluetooth dropping issues have been around for several years now and it started within the last 3 IOS updates. Apple engineers acknowledge this problem and don't have a solution yet... this was confirmed at the Genius Bar at their Nashua, NH outlet. My phone is 6 months passed warranty and my Verizon contract isn't up for renewal for another 6 months.
There are a lot of complaints about this (a LOT), yet Apple continues to stick its head in the sand instead of owning up to providing shoddy hardware and/or glitches software. They certainly don't want to be in the business of replacing phones, so they put the onus on us by charging $200 for a replacement... such a deal for Apple!
Apple's support communities are basically useless on this subject with a lot of screwy so-called solutions to work around their flaws. I've seen one fix where you heat up the phone with a hairdryer until the temp warning appears and then refrigerate it for 10 minutes... then BINGO, it's all fixed! Ya right!!!
Resetting network settings, or all settings (including a complete reset) is ineffective and appears to do nothing more than to further upset Apple users once they realize that they have wasted their time following Apple's so-called fix.
I just wonder if or when Apple pulls it's collective head out of the sand will they be able to see that their competition has surpassed them by leaps and bounds. There really isn't any good reason to stick with Apple now-a-days since their conscience passed away. Their competition offers superior technology while Apple continues to impress up with new connector technology and placement of their sockets.
I am finished with Apple and am incredibly sick of their spoon feeding what they want rather than what we want.
The best way to make Apple improve is to provide them with a taste of their own WIFI/Bluetooth offerings by DROPPING THEM!
They have abandoned us and have no problem trying to charge us to replace their flawed technology instead of doing the right thing!
