Ipod touch trouble connecting to public wifi
my wife has a iphone 3g and I have an ipod 4th generation. When we go to a restaurant she can connect to their wifi but I cannot. Can someone help me?
A lot of public networks reqire you to go to a browser like Safari and agree to terms of use on a webpage before you can use the network.
Alsso try:
- 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.
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

Why has my iPod Touch stopped connecting to my WiFi?
Why has my iPod Touch stopped connecting to my WiFi?
It's been fine for the past 2 years but today, it's stopped. It was working this morning...
According to settings it has connected but I cannot access anything online and the internet icon is missing.
WiFi is working on my phone & laptop so it doesn't appear to be a problem with the router. Also I've just synced my iPod with iTunes, reset and restarted - still no luck.
Any suggstions?
ThanksDid you already try to reset the network settings in Settings/General/Reset?

IPod Touch stopped connecting to Internet (WiFi)
Just unbelieveable-- I've been using my iPod Touch with a variety of WiFi connections the past 3 months, but really wanted WiFi at my home. So yesterday I got a D-Link DIR-635 Router acting as a bridge Router (connected to my older DI-604 Router) and all was super. This worked yesterday and this morning as well. In fact, it seemed even faster this morning-- well worked great in any case.
THEN NO MORE WiFi: But this afternoon, although the iPod Touch sees and "connects" to the router, it goes looking for the weather data, or stock data, or YouTube videos or eMail-- nothing.
YET my PowerBook and MacBook find and make the wireless connection just fine and connect to the internet perfectly--
I've tried changing some settings in the WiFi settings on the iPod Touch-- nothing.
Strange strange strange...
Why would the PBG4 and MacBook work with this and not the iPod Touch-- especially when it worked up until 6 hours ago???
Any and all comments appreciated. I can give the DNS and router and IP Address info or whatever is needed. If the Macs didn't work, I'd say this was a new router problem-- but they work fine!
Steve
Sunday 23 March 2008You know I've got a cordless phone RIGHT NEXT to this router-- and the iTouch is back working again, but I am going to RELOCATE that cordless phone.
I've read a bunch of other comments similar to my post-- changed the DNS to 208.67.222.222 (it didn't work right away after that change, but within 30 minutes...)
So I'm going to follow this and thanks very much for your feedback and please don't hesitate to send further ideas!
Working for 30 minutes now-- hope it continues; and looking into relocating that phone!

how do u track an ipod touch when its connected to a wifi and how do u find out when its your stolen ipod touch is connected
If you set up the Find My iPod service prior to the iPod going missing - the app is for tracking an iOS device from another iOS device - then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPod is turned on, connected to a WiFi network, and has not had the Find My iPod service disabled). Log into icloud.com and go to the Find My iPhone section. Note, though, that you'll only get the location of the WiFi router to which the iPod is connected; there's no way to pinpoint the exact location of the iPod itself.
If you did not set up Find My iPod, then there is no way to track it. Notify the police and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPod (the iTunes Store, for instance).

Trouble Connecting to Public Wifi in airports
Hello,
I've been having trouble connecting my Macbook Air to public wifi in several airports (Denver, San Diego most recently). I select the SSID and get the signal just fine. When I launch Safari or Firefox, I see a redirect to an authentication page - but it never comes up - it just hangs.
Using my iPhone and Safari, I can connect just fine. When the iPhone browser gets to the redirect screen, it comes up with a dialog box asking to accept a security certificate.
On the Macbook, I never get asked about a certificate. I can't find any settings that change this behavior. I am not blocking pop up windows blocked and I am accepting cookies.
Any ideas on how to resolve this? I see lot's of other Macbooks in the airport browsing away so I know I must be doing something wrong.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.Hi,
Have you tried "Renew DHCP Lease" under TCP/IP?
Best of luck.

My WiFi is not working on my ipod touch third gen. The wifi option in setting is blanked out so i am unabole to select it. I have tried restored it and resetting network connections. Also the battery life is very low. How do i fix this????????????
If a restore did not fix it, you have a hardware issue--possible bad wi-fi radio.

Ipod touch wont connect to wifi unless close to router
My ipod won't connect to my wifi unless I'm about 5-10 feet away from the router. Is this normal with the 1st gen ipod touches? I can't use a lot of apps because I need an internet connection to use them.

iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
