IPhone stays on Edge even though secure wifi is present and connected
My phone connects to unsecure wifi fine. If I try and connect to a secure network, enter the correct ID, the phone says I'm connected and I get the wireless symbol for about a minuit before it switches back to Edge. Unsecure wifi networks no problem. The same thing happened on three different secure networks - connected and then switched to Edge? Has anyone else experienced this? Is this a software issue with iPhone or am I missing something? We have numerous computers connected via the secure wireless network working fine. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

The Solution to the problem that you having is the following:
"Go to" SETTINGS
Wi-Fi
"Arrow over on the network which you are trying to connect"
Forget this Network
"Confirm" Forget Network
"Go back to" Wi-Fi Networks
"Choose the network which you are trying to connect"
*"In the Security box arrow over and choose" WEP hex or ASCII
"Now press" Enter Password
"Now enter your WEP Key etc..."
This should allow you to stay connected to a security protected network.

when I get a message my iphone 4s only vibrates even though all sounds are on and when someone calls the sound works perfectly normal.
Try a reset. To reset the iPhone, press and hold the home and sleep/wake buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignore the slide to power off prompt). If that doesn't work, perform a Restore via iTunes (from backup).

my iphone 4s can not scan any wifi network, i tried everything but still can not scan any wifi connection even though our wifi is working properly in our mac book and ipad. What do i need to do if the problem is the hardware?pls help
When you say it "can not scan any wifi network" do you mean it is not detecting Wi-Fi networks?
Is Wi-Fi turned on in Settings > General > Wi-Fi?
Have you tried Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings?
Is it just the home network that the device will not connect to? or any network? -

Hello JD_NINJA,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Check your security software
Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1611, 9006. Sometimes security software can stop your device from communicating with either the Apple update server or with your device.

hi
Since about 2 weeks ago for no apparent reason, the internet on my iPad suddenly stopped working (when I open Safari, it says: "Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the Internet"), even though the Wifi icon in the top left corner still shows full signal. However, I noticed when I went into Wifi settings (Settings>Wifi) that there is no checkmark next to my network name (only the spinning circle icon, as if it's trying to process something). This only happens at home (I can browse the internet while connected to Wifi at university). My other Apple devices (MacBook Pro and iPhone 4S) work perfectly fine at home.
I've tried resetting my router, restarting my iPad, resetting Network Settings on my iPad, and tried following Hynes' instructions on this thread:https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2453187?start=15&tstart=0, but nothing has worked so far (although I have to admit that I found the instructions on that thread somewhat confusing, so there is a chance that I accidentally did not follow them properly).
Could someone please help? It'd be VERY much appreciated. -
I bought a second hand 4s iphone and I can't use the internet on 3g even though it looks like I'm connected ... can you help please?
Who's your carrier?
What country are you in?
Was it from a shop or a personal deal?
If your phone doesn't function on the cellular network, goto the carrier first -
my ipad wont accept any passwords, i am unable to connect to my wifi even though my password is correct and other laptops etc have no problem connecting.
The ipad can find my wifi connection but just wont accept the password. connected with no problem in the Apple store.
any suggestions,
thanks.Does the iPad connect to other networks?
Does the iPod see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iPod connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

The wi-fi on my iphone 6 is "locked", even though the password correct and has been accepted. How do I unlock it so I can get back on the 'net
Only the carrier to whom the device is locked can unlock it.
StraightTalk is not a supported carrier... not all features may work. -
My MacBook no longer connects to the Internet even though my wifi bar is connected and full
I don't know what I am doing wrong
My iPad can connect no problem but my MacBook doesn't
In settings the wifi is green and connected
The Ethernet is red
Fire wire is red
And Bluetooth is red
I tried changing from dhcp to dhcp with manual but nothing seems to workFull bars would just indicate that your MacBook is connected to a wireless network. Typically when a computer can connect to the local network but not the Internet means that it is not configured properly to do so.
What may be missing in your computer's configuration is the proper IP address information.
Go to Preferences > Network > Wi-Fi > Advanced > TCP/IP tab
Configure IPv4 should be set to "Using DHCP," and the IPv4 Address, Subnet Mask, & Router fields should be populated with the appropriate IP addresses for your network.
Go to the DNS tab
There should be one or more DNS servers listed. These are either the ones provided by your ISP or ones that you set up yourself. -
My macbook 13 pro is not connecting to the internet even though the airport says it's connected. Can someone help me? My iphone and other macbook connect and work no problem. What steps can I take?
Ok....
Now go to your router's settings. Not sure who makes your router...
Look at wireless part of it and see how many computers are actually hooked up to it.
Delete your computer from it (in your router).
Restart your router.
After your router has restarted, try to connect to it with your MB and see if you can browse the net. -
