Mac not connecting with PC network

I'm attempting to connect my Mac to a wireless internet network through a PC. The PC is connected through Qwest with a D-link router. The PC connection is working fine.
The Mac sees the network and requests a password. I type the password, but nothing happens.
I don't know what other information to provide here.
Thanks!

Welcome to the forums Lewis!
Try putting a dollar sign in front of the Password, and make sure its 5 or 13 digits if WEP.

IPad will not connect with extended network and/or guest network

I have extended my main network (AP Extreme) with an AP Express and uses a guest network too, all Macs, PC's, iPhones, game consoles, mediaplayers can connect to the internet with both networks. Only one device does not work with the main network and that is the iPad (1st gen). It can connect to the guest network, though. If i disconnect the Express, the iPad can connect with the main network or if I set the guest network to off it will too. But I want to connect to the main network (remote access).
Device.                          Network.          iPad internetconnection
Extreme.                        Main.               Yes
Extreme + Express.       Main.               Yes
Extreme.                        Main + guest    Yes both
Extreme + Express.       Main + guest.   NO
I have reset the network configurations on the iPad and it works for only one time, if the iPad goes into sleep mode and restarts, the connections is lost. The iPad seems to be connected with the router/AP but no internet access.
Fyi
- all devices have a fixed IP address dedicated by the Airport. i tried to use DHCP, but no difference
- radio channels on automatic
- all on 2,4 GHz band
IS THIS A IPAD 1 ISSUE and do I have to accept the fact that Apple does not support the iPad 1 anymore?
Any suggestions how to fix this? Thank you.

Thank you for the suggestion.
The name of my home wifi network is automatically found by the iPad and after I select it the iPad asks for a password. I have typed in my password that I use with my laptop, but it does not work.
I also tried the two alpha numeric 13 digit strings on my router. It is actually a Belkin. Neither of those worked either.
finally, I went into general as I could not find settings to tell the iPad to forget network settings?

Fix for Mac not connecting to local network

Hi,
I'm a uni student and I've had trouble connecting my Macbook Pro to the local Uni network so I can access computers connected to the network from my computer in my dorm. It worked perfectly fine the first day and then it stopped working. I contacted Apple today to fix the problem and was told to the following procedure:
OS X Mavericks: Reset your computer’s PRAM
It solved the issue perfectly and I also found the reason for why my Mac was not connecting. Well since I've got a few more devices at home I've setup 'Internet Sharing' on the Mac so my ethernet connection is shared wireless through the computer's built in router. Turning this function on for some reason blocks you out from accessing your network. So yea, I thought this might help anyone else who've had the same problem, since I couldn't seem to find it anywhere on the internet!

Not on this forum. Classic Mac OS 9 is not the same as Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks.

Congrats on switching to a Mac. You'll really like everything Mac OSX can do. You won't have to worry about viruses or DLL hell or the messy registry system anymore... You won't be able to run the plethora of windows apps, but a lot of major software vendors are realizing that they need a Mac version of their software, since there is a huge demand for it (from existing Mac users) and the fact that many people are switching from Windows to a Mac.
....You can add RIM to that list of software vendors, who realize that they need to make a Mac version of their Windows app =P
The Mac version of BlackBerry Desktop Manager can't do everything that the Windows version can, but it's designed that way since it's supposed to be cleaner and simpler.

IPad 2, iPhone4 will not connect to wifi network. However, my Mac desktop connects perfectly. I can't figure out why?

Hi, I cannot get my iPad 2, iPhone4 (nor husbands HTC One) to connect to my wifi network. However, my Mac desktop connects perfectly. On the other devices I just get an error message saying that Safari cannot connect to the internet. This has been going on for a few days so I've tried all the fixes I can find on the web (restarting modem/router, forgetting netork settings, etc), but nothing seems to work. I've done all the latest updates on my devices. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

Hello Csmo2013,
Since multiple devices from different manufacturers are having the same issue, I think it would be a good idea to test the mobile devices on a different network to see if they work. That way you can isolate the issue to being with the router/modem or not. I see you have already restarted the router/modem, and forgot the network settings on the devices, but allow me to offer this article for assistance.
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
This section in particular:
Unable to access the Internet while connected to Wi-Fi
If you are using a public or commercial network that requires a login or subscription, see this article for more information.
Check to see if you have a self-assigned IP address:
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you are connected. Then tap >.
If your IP address is 169.254.xxx.xxx, see this article.
If you do not have a self-assigned IP address, see if other Wi-Fi devices on your network have Internet access.
If they do not, consult with your network administrator or ISP for further assistance.
If they do, reset network settings on your device by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: This will reset all network settings including: previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords, recently used Bluetooth accessories, VPN and APN settings.

My iPhone 4s will not connect with my home WiFi network. I have ios6 on my phone. I have updated my IMac and my MacBook Pro with iOS 10.8.2. Anyone have any suggestions? It was connecting with no problems prior to updating my two computers.

My iPhone 4s will not connect with my home WiFi network. I have ios6 on my iPhone. The connection was working perfectly before I updated my IMac and my MacBook Pro to ios 10.8.2. I have had ios6 since I purchased the phone a couple of months ago. It searches for a network and finds them, but when it asks for my password, it will not accept the password. Have never had this happen before.

My wireless internet is working with all of my other devices but my imac will not connect to the network?

Can anyone help? My wireless connection is working on both my iphone4S and my ipad2, but my Imac will not connect to the network.

First run Software Update to make sure your iMac is up-to-date.
Even though things are working OK on other devices there may still be issues with your modem or router so it's best to start there. Locate the manuals on both devices and reset each. Do the modem first then the router. Next make sure the router has up-to-date firmware. If the problem continues after updating resetting and updating both devices then download and install iStumbler and let it run for about 30 minutes. iStumbler will scan your area for the Wi-Fi networks being used, pay attention to the channels each network is set to. Most routers are pre-set to channels 5 or 6 and if you are in a congested area and all the routers are set for channel 5 or 6 then you can see where there might be a problem. Set your router's channel to one not being used in your area, you have at least 14 channels to choose from. Also check to see if your router is using 802.11n, if it's not then it would be wise to upgrade the router to a faster device.
Next is if you are still having issues the problem could be your ISP's DNS settings. If you want to learn about DNS please read CNET's DNS Article and MacWorld's DNS Troubleshooting . Then use the instructions below to reset the DNS settings:
1. System preferences
2. Network
3. Click Advanced
4. Click DNS tab
5. Click + sign
6. Add 208.67.222.222
7. Click + sign
8. Add 208.67.220.220
9. Click OK.
10. Exit System Preferences

Outlook 2013 not connect with Exchange server 2013 in internal network

Hello All,
I Have two Exchange server 2013 in our environment. Both server install mailbox and CAS role. After configure exchange server 2013, Outlook 2013 not connect in internal network. I have configure outlook manually. i tried by using the suggestion from blog
but not work. Outlook show that Server cannot connect/ server name could not be resolved. in outlook setting i also put exchange proxy setting. In exchange admin center i have changed the OWA, OAB, Auto discover name. But still not work.
I know that outlook can be connect from external by using ssl certificate and publish outlook anywhere but i did my configure from internal network.
Can you please suggest as soon as possible.
Thanks,
Parvez

Hi,
Firstly, I’d like to explain, same with external users, internal users use Outlook Anywhere to connect with Exchange server and use Autodiscover get all settings.
Thus, let’s try the following resolutions:
1. run the following command: get-clientaccessservice |fl autodiscoverserviceinternaluri
2. check if the host name in the above URL is in the DNS server and there is a DNS entry about the host name points to the proper IP address.
3. Check if the above host name is in your certificate.
Thanks,
Angela

looks like this is your network connection settings problem, you'd better only keep one network adaptor online and linked, if you do not understand how to setup windows routing, this is completely not firefox problem. buddy. wish you goodluck.

WIFI and mobile data connections not connecting with any other outside WIFI networks. Bluetooth not working in car. Any solution?

After installed iOS7 I am facing the following two problems:
1. WIFI as well as mobile data connection are working fine at my home. But, not connecting with any other outside WIFI networks. Error message is 'unable to join network'. Mobile data also not connected outside my home. Sometimes wifi and mobile data connect outside my home when I turn off and on the phone.
2. Bluetooth, in my car, paires well and incoming and out going calls can be received and made. The problem is no sound out put from speakers.
Apple please make note of the above problems (of million people) and give solution before giving any other updations for painting and tinkering the screens.

Check this thread, the same solution might work for you:

Can not connect to wireless networks with ipad 2

My ipad used to connect to the wireless net at home and in public areas.
Now all by the sudden it can't "see" the network.
Message: " could not connect to wireless network"
I have tried "everything" also on different networks,
except resetting the modem.
My iPhone works, as do all my other computers.
Modem is Zyxel P2812

iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
