MacBookPro doesn't see TimeCapsule WiFi network after un-hibernating

Hi everyone,
I'm seeing a strange issue in that, after resuming from 'deep sleep' (hibernate), my MacBook Pro 2,2 can't see my preferred wireless network. I get the dialog saying 'none of your preferred networks are available', which sometimes lists my preferred network (huh?), but the AirPort menu item always lists my preferred network.
Does anyone else get this? It's driving me nuts.
Additional Info: Wifi is WPA2 provided by TimeCapsule. MacBooks and iPhones work fine.

If not:
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.

Then
Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
- 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.
- Power off and then back on your router

- Restore from backup. See:

- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Ipod Touch 4th Gen doesn't see my WIFI network.

    I recently erased the ipod and set up as a new ipod (regifted to my daughter) and updated to 6.1.5.  It does not find my network now after the update.  All my other devices connect no issue, as did this ipod before the erase & update.  As a side note, the camera also disappeared after the update.  I erased it again and set it up as new again and the camera reappeared, but still no network.
    I tried to manually enter my network by name and it says it's not found.
    Help?
    I was going to go to the Apple Store but it's nearly an hour away and we're under a foot of snow.  Any suggestions?

  • MBA doesn't connect to wifi network after waking from sleep

    I just bought a new MBA 13". More often than not, it fails to connect to my wireless network when it wakes up from sleep. This is annoying to say the least. Any ideas?

    Hi,
    I'm thinking about a trouble with the route table. Try this in a terminal session after startup:
    netstart -rn
    ping <network address>
    After somes answer, close the cover to go to sleep mode.
    Open the cover and look the result of the ping command
    Normaly you don't have a network
    cancel the ping command and redo the netstat commande
    Normaly some rows are missing in the result (i don' know why)

  • If iPhone 6+ doesn't see WiFi network after iOS 8.3 upgrade, restart router and iPhone

    PROBLEM: After upgrading my iPhone 6+ to iOS 8.3, the iPhone initially would not "see" the presence of my Apple Airport WiFi network.
    This was bizarre because the credentials were saved on the iPhone, the WiFi network had been continuously up, my Mac Air remained continuously logged in to the Airport WiFi, and the iPhone was able to see other WiFi networks I didn't wish to connect to such as xfinity's and the neighbor's. Just not mine.
    Manually entering the network name and password had no effect.
    SOLUTION: Restart the Airport WiFi router. Then restart the iPhone 6+. Now the iPhone 6+ sees and connects to the WiFi network automatically as usual.
    Hope this helps some folks!

    I Apologize for the long overdue reply. If your using a pc with your iPhone it is a common problem i noticed since i had iPhone 3GS, although it can occasionally happen with mac but you if backed the phone with the issue will get the same issue you had since it will be in the backup it backups software on phone as well you see.

  • I updated my iphone 5 to ios 6.0.2. my wifi says its connected but doesn't work now. It doesn't matter what wifi network I connect to. It worked before updating my phone. I can no longer use facetime or use wifi at all. I'm not sure what to do to fix it.

    I'm having similar issues with my phone.  I got my first iPhone recently, only had an iPod touch gen4 for a little over a year.  Updated to 6.0.2 when we got the phone (iPhone 5) a few days before Christmas.  When I got home on the evening of January 11, my phone would not connect the router anymore.  I was able to get it to connect after resetting the phone and the router, updating the router, and manually connecting.  That laste for a few minutes and then wouldn't work anymore.   I live in an area with very limited service, we have a network extender installed to help, and I am barely getting a 3G signal at times.
    My wife's iPad 4, my touchiPod 4, and all of our laptops are working just fine on the router.  When I dropped my kid off at school today, I noticed that I am not even seeing the school network anymore from the parking lot where before I got 3 or 4 bars and could connect to their wifi when I was there.  Today my phone goes back and forth between seeing my home network but not connecting, to not even seeing the network at all even from the same room that the router is in.
    Hope Apple fixes this problem soon..............

  • Can't get my ipad1 to connect to my home wifi network after doing restore

    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.
    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.

  • TS4209 Macbook Air with OS X 10.8.2 not automatically connecting to known wifi network after sleep

    Macbook Air with OS X 10.8.2 not automatically connecting to known wifi network after sleep

    If you are using WEP as a security on your router that is why it won't connect. WEP is so old school and very insecure that Apple has made it so there WiFi cards won't connect to WEP. It might as well be wide open. You can try that. Take all security, WEP/WPA/WPA2, off your router and see if it connects.
    If it does then use either WPA or better WPA2.

  • Imac failing to see any wifi network

    I have an Imac which is just over 6 months old (purchased December 2011) running LION, it has been connected to our wifi network since we set it up and there have been no problems, the mac has also been able to see other wifi nextworks available in our area.
    A few days ago the Imac suddenly had no wifi and on turning the WIFI on and off it became apparent that when it scans for wifi it can see no wifi networks at all.
    I have rebooted the machine and the router etc to no avail and all other Macs, phones and ipdas etc are able to see and use the wifi network successfully?
    Has anyone had this problem? is there anything more I can do before I box it up and take it into the Mac Store to see an expert?
    I assume its a hardware failure?
    PS I have connected the mac with an ethernet cable and that works fine, its just not able to see any wifi networks.
    Regards
    Dave

    Hi!
    I bought my imac 21,5 before 2 months after all lies from people dont understanding computers.
    Yes, I have exact same problem. I am using safari then suddenly the wifi is off. And it scans for wifi networks but it cant find any networks. I am using my old pc now and writing this post. If I restart the imac the wifi gets normal and i can see my network and other networks.
    I have applecare too, 3 years. But i dont know what to do. If you ask apple they will told you "the problem is unusual, or they will told you its not usual that people get problem with mac. If you ask mac users, they will told you "you never get problem with mac" BUT THEY ALL LYING!
    (i have other problems too with my imac. sometimes when the screen enter sleep mode I cant turn it on with the magic mouse or keyboard. I can only turn it on with screen-powerbutton then after maybe 10 sec the login-screen turns black. then I start the screen again with screen-powerbutton the screen turns black again.etc.)
    Of course it is hardware issue (I am expert user of pc) but the problem is Apple dont want to belive that a mac can get problem. And people using mac are afraid of the word virus or computer problem therefore they buy from Apple.

  • Airport on computer does not see any wifi networks

    Airport worked fine until recently and worked fine when I installed new OS a while back. I can see no wifi networks including my Airport Express. My other Mini sees it and others as well as my MacBook so it seems to be an issue with that computer.
    Sometimes I can log into my network by choosing Join Other Network but sometimes it doesn't work like now. Earlier today I logged in in this method and then it dropped out and I haven't been able to connect again. Any suggestions as to what the problem is?

    Yes, I had thought of that too. Just wanted to avoid buying another card without being sure of the problem.
    I've now tried setting up two routers to the 5GHz band, and sure enough, they both work and their wifis are picked by the macmini. All the other wifi networks I see around my house seem to be 54g.
    So it seems that only the b/g part of the macmini's wifi card is broken, while the n part is working properly. Do you know if this is possible or if there is a configuration in the macmini that is forcing it to only use the 802.11N?
    Thanks for your help anyway!

  • TS1398 my ipone 4s does not see any wifi networks my ipad works ok tried all of the above resetting network etc still does not see wifi ?

    my ipone 4s does not see any wifi networks my ipad works ok tried all of the above resetting network etc still does not see wifi ?

    If no change after restoring the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem with the wireless card or with something else.

  • Can't connect to wifi network after iOS update

    Can't connect to wifi network after iOS update.

    This does not work in my case.
    Situation: we have wifi at home using WPA encryption.
    The iPod Touch 8GB connected seamless to this network and anything was ok. After some days i could no longer connect, the iPod told me "connection to network 'networkname here' failed". Deleting the network and reenter the (correct) passphrase was no help, but changing the SSID on the router was helpful: the iPod could connect again ... for several days.
    Now things stopped working again. Resetting network settings did not help either.
    The iPod can see the network, is asking me for the passphrase and after several seconds telling me: can't connect. On the router log i don't even see a dhcp request, but other laptops work fine with the same wifi network.
    That's a mess, i cannot and will not change the SSID every some days just to get the iPod working again.

  • HT1695 Can't Find any wifi Networks after updragding to 6.0.1

    My iPhone 4 can't find any wifi networks after upgrading to iOS 6.0.1 and i can't downgrade what should i do ?
    I swtiched off  the connection from mobile and restared the router and nothing changed!
    Note: My laptop found about 7 Networks my iphone finds nothing

    I have the exact same problem.
    It popped up on my 8gb iPhone (2.0.1) first time when i just purchased it. The Wheel spins as if it's searching for hotspots (and there are a lot of hotspots where i live). My MacbookPro finds them without any problems.
    Second time i experienced these problems, it was after i didn't have a chance to charge the phone, and i figured it was a "Low battery, disable wifi" thing. But even though i charged it fully, it still can't scan networks.
    I managed to discharge the battery, until the 10% warning popped up. I connected the charger, and sure enough, it was able to scan networks. Then when i tried to join a network, it stopped working again, and since then i've been unable to scan wifi. Now 3 resets, and a lot of fiddling later, i'm no further than i was before.
    The fact that it was able to scan momentarily points me in the direction of the software, but i'm not so sure anymore.
    Hope someone can shed some light on this.

  • Today my Iphone  unable to see any wifi network

    Hello
    Today my Iphone  unable to see any wifi network.
    I tried to solve the problem in several ways.
    1. reset neteaork definitions.  -> did not solve the problem
    2. reset location and privecy  -> did not solve the problem.
    3. reset all definitions            ->  did not solve the problem.
    Doses any one has any idea that can help?
    Thakns
    Moti

    The only other option I can think of is to try a Reset All Settings reset.  You won't lose anything, but your phone's settings will ALL be set back to factory default. 
    If this doesn't work you could try to do a restore through iTunes and set your phone up as new.  If that doesn't work, you may have a hardware problem and will need to take the phone in to an Apple store to have it checked out.

  • ATV stopped seeing the wifi network

    Immediately after having done the latest firmware upgrade few days ago, the ATV stopped seeing the wifi network. Even if I type the network name in manually, no luck, it can't find it. Clearly an issue due to the latest update. The problem is that since it cannot connect to internet, it won't even reset to factory settings. Any help?

    It isn't an issue with the latest update per se, otherwise everyone else would have the same problem, it's an issue with your specific equipment, whether that be a faulty Apple TV, a corrupt install or something to do with your network. The difference being either your Apple TV is broken or it can be resolved.
    Can it see any other networks.
    Have you tried restarting it.
    Have you tried restoring it.
    Have you tried temporarily diabling network security.
    Have you tried adjusting any network settings.
