Ipod touch won't connect to home wifi?

the wifi was working fine until yesterday and now the connection won't even show up even though it works fine on my laptop. i've tried turning the ipod off and on, i've tried resetting the router, i've tried resetting the network settings on the ipod, still nothing. i can't do the thing where you hold down the power button and the home button because the power button is broke and the home button is almost broken as well. please help!!!

I have the same problem. I tried restart, restore software (even though it is brand new!), reset network settings, restarted modem + router. All my other non-Apple wifi connection are perfectly fine. Just the same message: "UNABLE TO JOIN THE NETWORK".

  • My ipod touch won't connect to the wifi network?

    Hello,
    My ipod touch won't work upstairs in my house. It is a 32gb 3rd generation and you have to stand close to the router. My family has two other ipod touchs and both of them work up in my room. I need help on how to mak it so my iPod works. I have reset the network settings 5 times and I have restored it once. Neither of them work. I have had it since 2009 and i got the wifi router in February 2011. It worked until March break when I went to my friends house and my iPod wouldn't work unless I stood bside her laptop. there was 3 other iPod touchs that worked fne though. Can I get viruses on my iPod touch?? Please help

    Here's how I solved my connection issues (I got this from doing online research):
    Manually Configure Your Network: From DHCP tab, tap the STATIC tab at the top. You will be presented with 4 fields to fill in:
    Field 1 is the IP Address. This address is for your iPod and it needs to be corret inorder to connect to the network. You need to know the address of your router in order to fill this field in. If you have a home network router, chances are your router address is something like 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 (you need to find this in your router's manual). Set your iPod's IP address to something like 192.168.X.150 (X= the 3rd number in your router's address).
    Field 2 is the Subnet Mask. Most likely, your Subnet mask will be 255.255.255.0 (as long as your router's address begins with 192.168.X.X).
    Field 3 is the Router Address. This address is given to you in your router's user manual. Some manufacturers even have it written on the bottom or back of the router itself. Most likely, it will be either 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 (confirm with your user manual). This address is also called the Default Gateway.
    Field 4 is the DNS address. If the above fields are correctly set, these should be determined automatically. However, if they are not, you will need to get this (or these) address(es) from your Internet Service Provider. You may also obtain this information from http://opendns.com (free service).
    When I first tried this procedure, I could only receive mail and not send. Later on, I could send but not receive. After a few calls to my ISP (they said they were having problems with the internet) and a lot of entering and re-entering the information, I finally gave up and early the next a.m. I input everything again and all of a sudden I was hooked up!
    My ISP never could tell me why I couldn't get a connection.
    P.S. The port I used was 25.
    Good Luck!

  • My ipod touch won't connect to my wifi

    A few days ago my iPod touch, 5th gen would connect to my home wifi just fine but now it won't. Every time I try to reconnect, it says that it can't or it failed. I've tried holding down the on/off button and the home button at the same time and then resetting my network connections but it still won't connect. Any other suggestions that don't include me losing all of my stuff on my iPod?

  • Brand new iPod touch will not connect to home wifi

    Monday I got a brand new iPod 4 to replace my previous one, as the home button had failed unexpectedly. The new iPod is working fine, running the latest iOS but when I try to connect our secure home wifi, it won't accept the password. We have reset the password and I've reset network settings. I'm so frustrated, because everything else connects to the wifi BUT my iPod will not take our correct password. What can I do? Should I take it back to Apple? I'm already annoyed by having to get a new iPod. The last one connected just fine but now this one won't.

    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost

  • TS1398 My iPod touch won't connect to the wifi.?

    So my iPod touch has been conecting to the internet perfectly these last few weeks, but i turned it on this morning and it would not connect to my home wifi at all. It connects to other wifi signals, and i can connect my laptop to my home wifi, but not my ipod? It constantly has a loading sign next to it even though i have full signal connection?
    I have tried turning it off and on multiple times
    I have tried turning the wifi connector on and off
    I have reset my network settings
    I have held the home button and lock button for ten seconds and restarted it
    I "forgot" the wifi link and re added it with the password again
    I don't want IOS7 and i can't download it without internet anyway
    I dont know what else to do and im really starting to get annoyed
    Help please

    It connects to other wifi signals, and i can connect my laptop to my home wifi, but not my ipod? It constantly has a loading sign next to it even though i have full signal connection? indicates a problem with your network.
    Power off and then back on the router
    Next try changing the security on the router. Start with no security (no password required) for a test.
    - Restore from iCloud backup. It shuld not update to iOS 7See:

    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device via iTunes. This will update a 5G to iOS 7

  • My ipod touch won't connect to wifi at home and it use to, it keeps saying my password is wrong

    My ipod touch won't connect to wifi at home, it use to work just fine, now it keeps telling me my password is wrong, but it can't be wrong because it is the same one I have always used. I also have an IPad2 that belongs to my daughter and it connects with our wifi at home with no problem.  But, why is my wifi telling me that my password is wrong.  I have tried everything, we have changed the pass word and that did not work.  We have have taken security off of our wifi and my ipod touch give me another message, but it won't connect to my wifi at home.  Please help... b/c the greatest thing for me is to be able to connect to wifi at home.
    thanks

    I have even shut down my ipod touch to see if it fixes the lack of wifi connection at home but it keeps telling me my password is wrong.  I can connect everywhere else, but not at home.  Pls help my.. I need to connect at home.  Does it matter if we have othere decives like ipads connected to the same wifi.  Because we have an ipad2 and my ipod and up until 1 week ago, we had very little issues keeping both of our devices connected at home.  Eitherway the ipad2 is still working just fine on our home wifi, but my ipod touch keeps refuseing to accept the password.
    Pls help, i am very frustrated and I have tried everything.

  • Two of our ipod touches won't connect to the home wifi.  They have done before. All other apple devices connect fine.  They can see the wifi devices, appear to try to connect (the circle whirls around) but connection doesn't complete.  Ideas?

    I have 2 of them that only connected for a day and then reset network settings and they connected again for a day now resetting network settings does not fix it either. My iphone used to work with my home network but after upgrading to the latest OS which is the same versions as the ipods it no longer works either. Acts the same as the ipods. It would seem that the latest tweeks to the OS is the problem with wifi connectivity.

  • IPOD TOUCH NOT STAYING CONNECTED TO MY WIFI!!!!

    my ipod touch wont stay connected to my wifi but my wifi is perfectly good and works for everything else. what do i do??

    I would try resetting your Router, leave it off for 30 seconds and then turn it on again.
    It may be running alright on your computers because it hasn't had chance to drop the connection yet. So try doing this, once it has fully been reset try connecting again.
    Also, if your wi-fi is password protected, try clearing the password and type it in again.
    Hope this helps!
