IPod touch 2G cannot connect to 802.11g

I'm having trouble connecting my iPod touch 2G to a local wifi network.
Up until a few months ago, I was using a Time Capsule as a wireless router for an internet connection. I could browse the internet on my iPod touch by connecting to my TC router wirelessly. But then my apartment landlord installed free wifi for all the renters, and at the same time my own internet device that was sharing the internet through the TC stopped working. Since then I have not been able to access the internet on my iPod touch.
The wifi internet is working on my iMac (very well) and MacBook Pro (fairly well, I sometimes have to move it to another room). But no matter where I go in my apartment, I cannot connect on my iPod touch. In my room I cannot see the wifi network at all; in other rooms it appears momentarily, usually with 2 out of 3 bars on its signal strength icon, but whenever I try to connect I usually get an error that says "Failed to join... (the network)", and occasionally I get a pop-up error that says something like "Unable to join... (the network" and it has a big "Dismiss" button.
The iPod touch can grab wifi with seemingly no problem at other locations, such as my workplace, my church, businesses in town, etc.
An app on my iMac called iStumbler reports that my home network is 802.11g. I believe this should be supported on my iPod touch? If so, I cannot figure out why it is not working at home.
Is it most likely that its antenna is going bad? Or the signal is too weak (it shouldn't be, the signal source is right next to my apartment building, and my iMac shows a strong signal)? Or could it be some kind of software/hardware setting that I should get my landlord to look at or tweak?
I'm a bit frustrated!

I did all like you said. After that i have seen that my ipod touch isn't supporting 40mhz mode so i changed it to 20 Mhz and i put B+G band because my ipod is not supporting B+G+N mode. Nothing, i cannot connect. On my other 2 routers i can connect but...my other two are not mine
I did some screenshots of my router's configuration. If is something to change please help me!

  • IPod touch 3gen cannot connect to wifi

    My ipod touch 3rd gen no longer connects to the secure wifi network in my house. I've been having this problem for about a month now.  This past weekend I reset the network settings, restored and added everything back onto my ipod, reset my router and modem, and entered in the correct password.  It only stayed connected for a short while before disconnecting again.  Now when I try to log back on again making sure I use the correct password, it tells me the password is incorrect, etc.
    Am I missing something here?  Do I need to add something in the IP addresses, etc?  I feel like I'm running out of options and things to rule out here.

  • New ipod touch 5 cannot connect to tv

    i had ipod touch 3 and used to connect to tv using the apple connector one end was 3o pin and the other end going into tv was three wires one for video, and two for sound left and right. when i bought a new ipod touch 5 i was advised by apple people to get an adapter one end into the new ipod 5 and the other 30 pin. i have tried that and i can hear sound but not video why is that can you help me?

    The Lightning to 30 pin adapter does not transmit video.
    You will need a Lightning to HDMI (Digital A/V) or Lightning to VGA adapter

  • IPod Touch 4G - Cannot Connect to iTunes Store from AppStore App

    I have three iPod Touch 4G in the house. All running 5.1.1 iOS. Mine (that I use everyday, can access the App Store and Updates just fine. My wife's iPod (which hasn't been used for a few weeks) cannot access the App Store, Updates without the error "Cannot Cannect to iTunes Store". Both are using the same network router on WiFi. Both have internet access and I can browse on both just fine. All other functions of the App Store app work fine EXCEPT Updates.
    She did have 7 updates initially and I went to iTunes under Apps and UPDATED them all with an exception, one of them downloaded but failed to show "downloaded" it still says "update" on a little tag. This makes me think that something is "stuck" in queue within iTunes Store for that account.
    I have tried EVERY fix mentioned that I can find and this simply makes no sense.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

    Actually this was solved. I found a thread that detailed what to do to fix it and it worked for me.
    Essentially, double-click the main button and shut down the App Store (if running)
    Go to "Settings", "General" and "Date & Time"
    Change the date (turn OFF "Automatic") to WAY in the future (like 2025)
    Then back out of settings by using the button in the upper left (so settings are saved)
    Now, open the App Store and click quickly on something OTHER than Updates
    Now click on Updates - you should get a security warning
    Without closing the App Store, go back to Settings, General, Date & Time and set the date back to "Automatic"
    Again, back out of the settings to save the date information
    Now go back to the App Store and it should load the Updates tab properly. You may need to re-enter credentials.
    That fixed it for me. Thanks to HOLEPUNCH for the fix.

  • What do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet

    what do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet. i have contacted apple support and they said to change from wep to wpa2 but when i change it to wpa2 and type in password and connect on my laptop it says the saved setting on this computer for the network do not match the require ments of the network

    My 2nd gen works fine with WPA2 and AES encryption.
    You may need to go back and start over.  Reset the router back to factory defaults, log on as the admin, set up security, DHCP, and make sure the IP address pool has enough IP addresses to lease to ALL of the computers/devices that will connect to that the router.

  • My iPod Touch 4 cannot see Wi-Fi connections . . .

    My iPod Touch 4 cannot see Wi-Fi connectionsit located before, but others can still see it and it is working.  Other Apple products see it.  Not all hot spots but only AAFES.
    I have done a complete clean and reset - taking it back to factory, but no good. 
    I also keep dropping passwords on sites I am using when I never leave that site.  Sometimes it will be ok and other times i will be asked for my password over and over within a few minutes.  This usually happens on car repair forums as well as some Do It Yourself sites.  This never happens with other computers I use.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Maybe it is just a loose wifi antenna connection.

  • IPod Touch will not connect to wi-fi away from home

    I realise this may not be a fresh topic but I've searched and cannot find an answer.
    My Touch - more or less brand new - connects to my home wi-fi with no hassle. Syncs, the whole bit. Lovely.
    But it won't work away from my home. It recognises wi-fi networks, let's me connect to them but won't actually let me access webpages or update my mail. The mail aspect is the biggest problem as I'm away from it most of the day and bought the Touch to solve the problem. It says it's updating but nothing is downloaded.
    Accessing the internet, even with wi-fi apparently switched on, doesn't work either. I've even tried renewing leases on wi-fi networks but it still won't work. Please help.

    Hello
    Couple reasons for why iPod Touch will not connect to WiFi Networks outside the house
    1. They are using Mac Address Filtering. Which require the WiFi address in your iPod Touch to be programmed into their WiFi Router. Not much you can do to fix that unless you know who owns the network and they are willing to add you
    2. The networks are running in 802.11 n Speed only mode. Thus iPod Touch will not connect as the touch only supports 802.11 B/G connections. They could also be using the old 802.11 (A) connection on the network as well
    3. As stated earlier they could have outdated Firmware/Software on the router. Thus making the router out of date and not able to connect modern day devices. So if you know the owner it may be advised they contact router manufacture or their tech to update the firmware/software and see if touch connects after
    4. Outdated Touch Software. Ensure you have the latest free version of the iPod Touch Software. If you have yet to get one of the paid versions you may wish to research and or see if a friend has a newer software on their touch and is able to connect to the networks you can not.
    5. WiFi Network security the hot spot is using. Sometimes old standard WEP security can prevent Touch from properly connecting and getting on the network. It is recommended if you know the owner or tech that runs it to try and use WEP 128 bit 13 character password or stronger more modern day wifi security.
    If they are using 40/64 bit WEP. Try adding a $ and then the password that they provide you and see if you can connect.
    If you get the time please visit your local Apple retail store so they can further look into the touch and test it on the store wifi network. If for some reason it does not work there and they determine possible HW service is needed they will speak about your in warranty options.

    Hello dawn2020,
    I would suggest this article named Can't connect to the iTunes Store found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368.
    Troubleshooting on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking on Check for Update in your device's Summary page in iTunes.
    Check and verify that you are in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you are on a 3G capable device, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to 3G, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts. 
    Check to make sure you have an active internet connection. You can check the User Guide for your device for help with connecting to the internet. 
    Check to make sure other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router
    If the issue persists, see troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections.
    Note: All iPhone, and iPod touch models support 802.11b/g Wi-Fi networks. In addition, iPhone 4, and iPod touch (4th generation) support 802.11n Wi-Fi networks (2.4 GHz only).

  • TS3899 My Ipod touch 4G cannot connet to internet anymore

    My ipod touch 4G cannot connet to internet eventhough it can be connected to different wifi networks.
    I can see the device is connected to the WIFI network but Safari or email doesnt work. Also, when I go to game center I am asked to enter my user and password and then the device will not send it (over thje internet).
    Tryed several troubleshooters. What else can I do to make it work???
    I really appreciate your help!!!

    Does the iPod 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.
