IPod Touch Wont Connect to Belkin Router

Ok so if I turn off my router security it connects fine, gets assigned an IP by DHCP but the minute I turn on the WEP again it says 'Unable to join the network'.
Very annoying!! I have tried using all caps, lower case, spaces inbetween, you name it and none of it works.
Anyone have any ideas? My macbook pro, Wii, 360 and DS all connect quite happily.
Thanks.
Simon

Try using a WPA security, instead of WEP. I read that some people did that and it was able to work

I'm Having trouble cause i just got it used & I reset & rebooted it now I don't know how to program it. Someone please out of the goodness of your hearts," Help Me Please?"

Might be a good idea to start by reading the User's Guide.
Also, this is the iTunes for Windows forum... the issue has nothing to do with iTunes. In the future, please post to the appropriate forum.

Ipod touch wont connect to windows or itunes

My iPod touch is connected to my pc with a cable and it is getting charged, but it isnt being detected in devices or in iTunes and i really need to put music in there. How can i get the device to be detected???

See:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
or
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
Run this to help if it identifies the cause

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.

If not thios
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.

New iPad Wi-Fi ; wont connect to Belkin Router

Hi...grateful for any experts' help out there .. So I got a new 16Gb iPad for Xmas, lucky man I know.... Im a pro TV/film composer with 2 macbooks, 3 ipods, an iphone 4 and a studio g5 so Im cool with Apple stuff and know my way around them... BUT - I cant wi fi connect to the internet via our home router, a Belkin N10117 Wireless G Router. In terms of info I should say that:
- the iPad can see the router and connects to it but loading Safari says 'no internet connection'
- we have 2 ipod touches, an iphone 4 and 2 macbooks successfully connected to the net via wi fi using the Belkin
- when I try joining the network the IP address and the Subnet Mask are filled in, but the Router DNS Search Domains etc all blank which I take to be bad..
- I have tried the following: brightness fix/multiple restart of router, ipad etc/reset network settings of iPad, forget network etc, then went to Belkin control panel and added Mac Address filtering, adding in Wi Fi address of iPad , still no joy - all other items worked fine after this.
Should add also that my bro in law also got a new iPad on the same day - his also did not work with the Belkin but worked fine when he got home on his network. So it seems it is a setting issue within the iPad/belkin rather than a specific hardware issue or router issue.
Ill be so very grateful for any info - have been on the forum/support sites searching all afternoon and now Im asking for help. One poster quoted success with the Mac address filtering route but no luck for me... if anyone can tell me the Belkin router will categorically will not work with the iPad then so be it but that would seem very poor given that all other hardware works perfectly (theres no info on Belkin site).
To quote Sting and his hundred million bottles washed up on the shore, it seems "Im not alone in being alone" with this problem.... theres a LOT of iPad Wi Fi issues. I love Mac with a passion and use all their gear on TV and film scores but am currently VERY unhappy. Anyones help on helping transform this from a pretty beermat into something useful? Otherwise its a refund and a new guitar....Thanks so much guys.... KB

Hi Ralph... thanks for responding on this tricky issue, really appreciated.
Yes - Ive tried Autofill off, that was mentioned on an earlier search, no joy. The router is probably 3y or so old, and has worked perfectly. According to the Belkin Control Panel (which I currently have open) the firmware is the latest version - but have to say I dont know how to check:
.... before Sept 2009, do not have an implementation of the IEEE 802.11 n-protocol that is completely compliant with the standard..
would there be anywhere in the control panel settings that gave us that info? Im sure you're on the right track about the iPad being picky.. Im just not knowledgable enough to know what settings to change myself.. Im curious as to why the Router/DNS/Search Domains boxes were empty whereas on all other mac items theyre automatically filled in....? As you say Belkin are great; Ill buy a new router if I have to but dont know whether that would solve the problem?
so grateful for any help...cheers

My iPod touch wont Connect or Slide

My iPod screen says Connect to iTunes, but it wont connect, and I've tried to "Hard Reset" it, but it just goes right back to the same screen. also when i try to turn it off it wont let me slide to turn it off? Please help!! i've had my iPod for quite awhile and this is the first problem i've ever had with it.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IPOD touch wont connect to my secure wifi

I just got a new Ipod touch and have been trying to connect to my home wireless router. I have a Linksys wrt300n and run a WEP 128 bit security on it. All the other devices in my house run of this wirelessly. (Laptop,desktops,gaming system, etc...) When I first connected my other wireless devices I had to enter my WEP key to be able to access the router. Now the problem I am having is that the IPOD touch will pick up my network. it asks me to enter my password and I do this. Then it tells me that the password is wrong. I double check my password buy logging into my routers setup page. I was right. I assume this is because of my WEP security setting but for the life of me I can not find a place to enter the KEY code in. I have been on the phone twice with Apple to no avail. They are trying to tell me that I may have to change what security setting I use. Is this right? Is there another way. As it stands right now, the IPOD touch I bought is just a $200 peice of junk if I can not even connect to my own home network. OH, before any one asks, I did go to a buisness with free wifi and was able to connect right off the bat with that network. So it is something with my secured setup. Any help would be appriciated. I have been looking around for hours for an answer.

Have an ipod touch that would not connect to the wireless router using WEP128 encryption. I cannot change encryption on the router since not mine (I did not change any settings on the guy's router though he wouldn't know if I had).
Tried a number of passwords including audible cursing and fist shaking. I also tried variations on the HEX and account password (in quotes, start out with a $, etc) and none worked. What did work was converting the 26 number string from HEX to ascii using an online converter http://centricle.com/tools/ascii-hex/
and putting this value in the password box when I logged in.
Side bar - I manually selected the network by inputting the name of the network and selecting the encryption. I don't think this step made a difference.

Ipod touch wont connect to internet

I recently restored my 2nd gen Ipod touch to factory default settings because that was the only way to get back onto my ipod. Once i got it all set up i went to get on the internet but it said i wasnt connected to the internet. So i went into settings to turn on the wifi. The only problem is that when i go to settings it says wifi but it's grayed out!!!!! The little wifi symbol is there but on the right side but on the left side it says no wifi. i cant click on it and i couldnt find anyone else who has had this problem! Please help asap!!
