ITOUCH NOT STAYING CONNECTED TO HOME NETOWORK AS IT ONCE DID PLEASE HELP

The itouch was remaining on my home network just fine and I never had to search for it or join the network manually whenever it was turn off then back on again or whenever I was away and returned home.
I think was caused this was recently when visting my daughter the itouch keep looking for my own home network and I finally chose to foget that network so it would not show up any longer. When I returned home, I noticed the itouch would not find the home network automatically leaving me to do a manual connection each time it is turned off then back on again. This is really annoying. Is there any way to reverse the forget this network so that it will begin to automatically join the home network?
No changes have been made in the router and I do not want to bother with changing lease times--this was never set and would not be an acceptable fix.
Please help.
Thanks!!

Prince,
Thanks, a reset sounds like a good idea. I actually fixed it another way one I did not perfer but it worked. I renamed the SID and logged on just once and automatically since this new SID name was never removed, it was added to the list of known SID's. In the case where the network does not belong to the user, this would not be an option and your method would be the best fix by far, I turst that it works and that you have tried this. It certainly seems like that is the way to refresh the SID list or remove the negative filed SID's if one ever selected to forget a particular SID.
Much thanks for the answer to you and DOC!!

  • IPad not staying connected

    Hi all, I'm new here and not as technologically literate as most people on here! I went to the Apple store yesterday because my iPad is not staying connected at home. I have no problem, however, with my iPhone, iMac, and iTouch. It was suggested that my router is getting "bogged down" and that I can set up a MAC IP Address. How do I know what IP address to use? I've searched on here, and I'm not having any luck. I'm very close to buying Apple's router, but wanting to see if I can fix my problem first. Thanks in advance for your help!
    (p.s. I have a D-Link WBR-2310)

    We had this problem on an all-Apple WiFi network with the iPad 10 feet from an AirPort Express. The folks at the Apple Store offered to replace the iPad or wait for a software update - surprisingly, the latter course fixed the problem a few weeks later. Sooo... update the iPad software if you haven't already done so and see if that doesn't help.

  • Will not stay connected to my home wi-fi

    My iPhone will not stay connected to my Airport Express. My iMac and PB have no problem. Where I live I do not get any other wi-fi signals.
    In the morning my phone connects...I check my mail and check a few web sites. No problem for about 5 minutes or so then I loose the connection and it switches to AT&T's Edge service. The phone will re-connect when I go to setting>wi-fi But it only stays connected for 30 seconds or so. It will say "unable to connect" and I do renew the lease.
    This has been happening for about 3 weeks now.

    Have you tried deleting the saved wireless network settings for this network from your iPhone followed by reconnecting to the network?
    If not, on your iPhone go to Settings > Wi-Fi.
    Select the right facing arrow in a blue circle icon to the right of the name of the network.
    At the top, select Forget this Network.
    This will delete the network and network settings from your iPhone.
    Follow this by selecting and reconnecting to the network.

  • Is anyone having a problem with the new iPad (Gen. 3) not staying connected to the charger? It seems to ALWAYS get jiggled loose and no longer be charging. My iPad 1 has no issue but I can't browse Internet w/o new iPad unplugging. Horrible!

    I notice that my new IPad (3rd generation) will not stay connected to the power cord at all, I'm not exagerating, if I plug it in and browse the Internet without fail it will become unplugged and I will have to push the plug back in (Ba-beep). Ive actually grown to despise that sound when you plug your iPhone or iPad in because it reminds me of how much money I spent on something that PHYSICALLY will not charge while I'm using it.
    I know the problem with it holding a charge while in use, I get it, the screen is amazing and it takes a lot to run the display, however, it is unacceptable to me that I can't even keep the thing plugged in while I'm using it. I can not even leave it on my Cal King bed overnight because I will wake up in the morning to find that the plug has been jiggled loose in a corner, so it's still attached but not making a connection thus not being charged. 
    I love the 4GLTE from Verizon and I love the iPad, but I'm actually using my 1st generation IPad while I am at home so I can leave my new $900 iPad on a table to charge free of incident so I can use the 4G while I'm away from wifi during the day. I have been getting more upset about this because I can not even use the Griffin extended cord to charge the iPad and be far from the plug because only the original apple sync/charge cord will have a better shot at staying in. Absolutely none of my non apple cables will stay in the iPad 3 while having it in my hands.
    The plug is at an angle, unlike the first iPad, not sure about the iPad 2. Please let me know if they have same issue.
    If anyone else is having this problem with the Gen 3 iPad please let me know because I'm tempted to do something about it with apple and I'm hoping that I just for some reason have a bad cable receiver or something and maybe I can get a replacement and enjoy the iPad as I had expected to. There is no reason why I should be even using my first iPad and I have friends that want to buy it but I am not selling it because I'm unable to sell it because I can't handle the new iPad while it's plugged in, that is ridiculous if it's a common issue so please let me know!

    Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
    Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
    Thanks again!

  • My Macbook will not stay connected to the internet, while my Dell computer works fine. Why? What can I do?

    My sister and I both have Macbook Pros that will not stay connected to our internet (wifi). Our dell computers and HP computers in the household work great- but both of the Macs do not stay connected, and often say "you are not connected to the internet". I have saved our wifi name to the computer so it is registered as our home network- but it still will not work fast or stay connected for long periods of time. Is there a setting I need to change, or anything I can do? Very disappointed with how the Mac works with our wifi.

    Mac's will have trouble connecting to WEP Encrpyted and/or "hidden" / "invisible " networks.
    OpenWEP (insecure) or WPA2(AES) is the only secure standard.

    Also make sure the date and time are current and updating to Apple's servers for your location in System Preferneces > Date and Time. Then reboot and reconnect.
    If your still having trouble after this, take both machines back to the store for a free evaluation.

  • Ipod touch will not stay connected to network after trying to use scrabble

    I had a new ipod touch and purchased the scrabble app from EA games. I could not log into facebook to load my games onto the app on my touch. The ipod would send me to my home page and disconnect me from the internet. Eventually my ipod would not connect to the network at all. I called Apple and they determined that the ipod was faulty and sent me a new one. Upon receiving the new ipod I downloaded and tried to use Scrabble again not thinking that the problem was the Scrabble app from the get go. Now again my ipod will not stay connected to the network. I have deleted the Scrabble app and reset my network settings and still nothing. It will occasionally connect but I cannot do anything with the ipod. However, it will work when plugged into my computer. I have contacted EA Games with the problem and they have "escalated my issue to their expert team", but I have yet to hear anything back from them. Anyone else having similar issues and know how to resolve this?

  • IPhone 4S not staying connected to wifi?

    I have both iPad and iPhone connected to same wifi, but my iPhone 4S does not stay connected.  I have tried to reset network, restart iPhone and they do connect but disconnects shortly afterwards.  Can anyone help me?

    Did you solve this problem? My new MacBook Pro 15" running 10.8.2 has exactly the problem you describe with our new Netgear N600. The other devices in our house (iMac running 10.5, a PC and an iPhone 3Gs) have no connectivity probelms at all.
    I have no problem connecting with my MBP at work or elsewhere. The problem is just at home with the N600.

    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • Magic mouse not staying connected

    Magic Mouse is not staying connected. It pairs up with my iMac for about 20 seconds or so, and then the connection is lost.
    This is not a battery issue, as they have been changed
    Nothing else about computer setup has changed.
    This is the second mouse I have had to buy for this computer. I replaced the previous one in April 2013.
    And now this one is now misbehaving....or more precisely not working on an ongoing basis.
    Today I had to buy a wired Apple mouse just to be able to get onto this Community.
    Not a happy camper here.

  • IPhone 4 does not stay connected to internet over 3G+

    I have an iPhone 4 on the telus network running the latest version of the os 4.3.3. My phone will not stay connected to the Internet most of the time. It looses connection and won't reconnect until I turn on airplane mode and then turn it back off. It also looses connection if I have wifi on and it detects a network but choose not to connect to it. I have restored my phone and it fixed the problem for half a day before it started again. I only have a couple months warranty left, is this covered do you think?

    I don't have another phone to try. I took out the sim to check for deffects but it looked fine. Cleaned the sim card with alcohol and cleaned the aim compartment. Phone didn't loose Internet connection all day yesterday, but this morning went to check emails and wouldn't update until I turned airplane mode on then off again.

  • Iphone 4 does not stay connected to my network

    Since upgrading to 6.1, my iPhone 4 does not stay connected to my network.  I have to input my password each time I leave my house.  My other devices stay connected, so the issue is with the upgrade.  Has anyone found a way to keep their IPhone connected to their network?  Thanks.

  • Iphone does not stay connected to wi-fi.

    When using apps or when in sleep mode my iphone does not stay connected to my wi-fi. All other items within the house have no issues with staying connected to my wi-fi.

    By design, when entering sleep mode, the iPhone will disconnect from WiFi to conserve battery. If you want the WiFi connection to remain persistent, plug your phone into a power source.
