Iphone not connecting to airport

i've gone to network prefrences, both ethernet and airport say their connected, i clicked on airport, and then clicked on assist me, then went diagnostics. ethernet, network settings, ISP, internet and server are all green, i click continue, then select my location. now i clicked aiport, and clicked went to continue, then i clicked use aiport, and clicked continue, then i selected my airport provider, and then clicked continue, and it scanned for a while, then came up with Aiport, Airport settings, network settings, ISP, internet and server are all green. but i try to get my iphone to connect, and it comes up with safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding.
so i went to airport utility, and clicked continue, and clicked i want to restore this airport express to its factory settings and then set it up again, so it restored its default configuration, even though nothing was changed.. i think. then i went back to network diagnostics and airport, ISP, internet and server were green yet airport settings and network settings were red. and i cant connect my iphone here, so i went to the funny symbol in the top right, that looks like radio waves getting bigger, and clicked, my own internet provider, and airport and network settings went back to green, so i tried again to connect my iphone, but it didnt work
if anyone has similiar problems, and a way to fix it
or just knows how to fix it, could you please write back to help
much appreciated

A thought would be that it might be a good idea to start by following Apple's Troubleshooting Guide for iOS devices to see if that might help:

Posting in the iPhone or iPad Community Support forums might be another, since the experts for those products are over there.  Links here:

  • Iphone will not connect to airport express extended network - macbook and ipad will - Help

    Iphone will not connect to airport express extended network - macbook and ipad will without problems.
    iphone will connect to base station no problems, I've restored settings and started again but still the same, the iphone picked up the network for the last couple of months, but not now ?

    I'm having the same issue. My AExpress used to give a good signal strength on the far side of the house extending he network created by my Extreme. However, I've noticed lately that my iPhone does not receive the same strong signal it once did. AE has a green light, I've rebooted it, and my Extreme but there is no change in signal strength. Other than the green light, how can I tell if the Express is working if I don't get a good network signal?

  • IPhone 5s connect to airport express but when I play in iTunes no option to pick airport ?

    iPhone 5s connect to airport express but when I play in iTunes no option to pick airport ?

    If anyone would like to know how to fix this, I discovered the answer.
    I have no idea what IPv6 is and I care not, but apparently now, all of a sudden, Apple makes iTunes talk to Airport Express units using IPv6. However, it didnt bother to make the Airport Express units expect this first, so iTunes can see the Airport Express, but it cant talk to it.
    Anyway, I found that you have to manually go into your Mac settings (scary stuff if you are a non technical person like me) and turn off IPv6.
    To do this, go to "Finder > Go > Utilities > Terminal"
    type
    networksetup -setv6off Wi-Fi  (hit enter)
    Then type
    networksetup -setv6off Ethernet (hit enter)
    and magically your iTunes will talk to your Airport Express units again.
    I presume at some point we will have to undo this as technology moves on and everything uses IPv6, so when that happens go into Terminal again and type
    networksetup -setv6automatic Wi-Fi  (hit enter)
    Then type
    networksetup -setv6automatic (hit enter)
    Thanks Apple for that.

  • My two iMacs frequently go offline when I have our iPad and two iPhones-5 connected with Airport Express (2nd edition). If I disable WiFi on my three "i" devices no problem. Any thoughts on this?

    My two iMacs frequently go offline when I have my iPad and two iPhones-5 connected with Airport Express (2nd edition). If I disable WiFi on my three "i" devices the offline problem stops. Any thoughts on this?

    .....doesn't that seems to suggest the modem?
    That is what I have suggested....twice now. From posts above:
    My opinion would be that it is likely not the ISP, unless you have complete loss of Internet service for all devices at the same time......it is the Comtrend device....
    and
    I believe that the problem lies with the modem, and not the ISP signal.
    Your ISP will likely have a different opinion, though. Please keep us posted on your progress.

  • Iphone not connecting to wi-fi but my ipad does

    iphone not connecting to wi-fi but my ipad does.same wi-fi but the iphone doesnt want to connect now for some reason

    Can your iPad connect to other Wi-Fi networks? If so, is it possible that you may have configured your AirPort to restrict access to the iPad by including the iPad's MAC address in the AirPort's Timed Access Control settings?

    I have my Time Machine on an external drive (not connected to Airport Extreme) and I have an external HD attached to airport extreme. Is it possible to have Time Machine backUp computer HD AND external HD connected to Airport Extreme. How?

    Is it possible to have Time Machine backUp computer HD AND external HD connected to Airport Extreme.
    Sorry, but no.
    Time Machine will backup your Mac, but not the hard drive attached to the AirPort Extreme.
    Time Machine will back up a hard drive only if it is attached directly to your Mac via USB or FireWire.

  • Imac will not connect to Airport Extreme when configured WPA/WPA2

    Imac will not connect to Airport Extreme when configured WPA/WPA2
    Posted: Jul 5, 2007 8:22 PM Reply
    I just got my Imac to connect to the internet using my Airport Extreme but only by using WEP. I had my Windows XP SP2 machines connecting using WPA/WPA2 with no problem. The Imac will not connect using anything other than WEP, and 1 of the XP machines will not connect using WEP.(I have not tried the other XP machines) I had to set the Airport Extreme for an open network in order to let both computers access the shared hard drive and access the internet.
    I don't know what the problem might be and would appreciate any suggestions.
    MacBookPro, Imac   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   Fujitsu tablet PC, 2 XP desktops

    hehe...on the visuals. I figured it out already, and I have the old airport card. However, I did a chat with Apple support and while we were chatting I found a USB adapter with MAC drivers which will work. It is:
    Hawking Technology HWUG1A Wireless-G USB Adapter with Removable Antenna for Macintosh
    Manufacturer Part# HWUG1A
    That is the only adapter that actually does WPA/WPA2 that I can find that is for a Mac and not just an older USB that only does WEP. It surprises me that Apple does not have a USB product like this. Anyway, for $56 including shipping, I will have it by Monday or Tuesday. Pretty cool.
    Thank you so much for your assistance. It is appreciated.

  • Iphone not connecting to my airport

    I changed my broad service provider , i reinstaed my airport extreme basestation again .
    The green light is glowing howvere my Iphone or IPAD is not connecting to the wireless network , what shoudl I be checking now ?

    there was a post earlier where someone had talked to apple about it and they were told engineering is working on it. it isn't just your router, it is happening on all of them, linksys, etc. some have found workarounds, others have to wait for engineering.

  • IPhone not connecting to my Airport Extreme (password invalid)

    I've been trying to get my iPhone to connect to my Airport Extreme since I got the phone, it finds my network but fails to connect when I enter the password.
    I have tried changing the network password several times but nothing seems to help, The airport security is set to 40-bit wep with a password 5 digits long using only numbers.
    I have been able to connect to several public Wi-Fi with or without passwords so that makes me think my problem is either the type of security I'm using or some sort of limitation regarding the length of the password.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Iphone not connecting to time capsule wifi

    I recently got comcast connection via modem and it took me forever to connect it to my mac book pro (MBP), time capsule and iphone. Everything was working fine till yesterday, the modem was connected to the time capsule and my MBP and iphone were connected to the time capsule via wifi and life was beautiful. Yesterday, by mistake I disconnected the modem, plugged it back in but could not reconnect the iphone to the time capsule wifi. I hooked up my MBP to the modem, went to network> assist me> and was able to get the MBP to connect to the modem and also to the time capsule as wifi (like before). The MBP works fine as wifi, it will only connect to internet with the ethernet cable or as wifi, but not both. If I set the ethernet on the MBP, then it says "airport has a self-assigned IP address -------- and will not be able to connect to the internet" and gives the same message if I connect successfully to airport using assist me and reboot the modem, then it works fine as wifi but ethernet stops and says "ethernet has a self-assigned IP address -------- and will not be able to connect to the internet". Anyways, I am ok using ethernet or wifi on the MBP, but my iphone does not connect to the time capsule at all, it detects it but does not connect to it. I have tried putting in the IP address, subnet mask, router, dns and search domain as static into the iphone using the MBP airport settings. If I enter these as static, the iphone connects to the time capsule but there is no internet. I have the aiport utility app on my iphone which gives a green light for both internet and the time capsule. But my iphone has a 3G sign at the top right, no wifi sign at all. I also changed to airplane mode and then tried to connect to the time capsule, no luck there. I also reset the network settings in the iphone but no luck. From earlier posts on this, I also checked the channel settings, it is both 5 and 2.4 gHz, so no luck there as well. Please help. I need wifi on my iphone to keep my bill down. Thank you so much.

    I just want to add that I can connect the iphone to wifi at the office. So the iphone hardware is ok. Please help

  • IPhone not connecting to Time Capsule

    I had posted this on the Time Capsule forum, but I'm hoping to get a bit more visibility here to see if anyone knows what to do. Here's the deal:
    I currently have my wireless network setup via Time Capsule and it's always worked fine until today. Now, the network continues to work fine for my laptop and my PS3, but when my iPhone tries to connect, it always says it has the incorrect password, despite the fact that that isn't true. Similarly, when the iPad tries to connect, it has the right password, but doesn't stay connected, instead it oscillates between "not connected" and my network every second or so. I've tried setting up a new network, changing the channel, etc, but alas, the problem seems to continue. Anyone know what might be going on?

    Found the answer myself : it seems to be something to do with the latest version of firmware (7.5.2)
    In Airport Utility, select manual configuration of the base station : click on the word "version" next to the number to revert to the correct firmware file.
    This is where I found my TimeCapsule firmware version 7.5.1 :
