My Ipod Touch looses connectivity to my wireless router often, any idea why?

Hello
I have an IPOD Touch  MC540LL   that loses connectivity to my wireless router very often.  Even if I'm sitting next to the router. Any Idea why? 

Try powering off and then back on the ruter
Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
Do other devices experience same problem?

  • I am experiencing network failures with my Airport Extremes: the main router is a 2nd Gen, the extension a 5th Gen. The 5th Gen keeps on losing connection with the main router. Any ideas why?

    I am experiencing network failures with my Airport Extremes: the main router is a 2nd Gen, the extension a 5th Gen.
    The 5th Gen keeps on losing connection with the main router and thus with the internet.
    Any ideas why?

    Is the second Extreme configured to "extend" the network created by the first? If so its position must be such that it has a strong wireless connection to the first Extreme. If it is at the limits of the first one's wireless range its connection will be tenuous. Place them closer together and determine if that makes a difference.

    - Try resetting 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.
    - Go to Settings>Safari and delete cookies, cach and history.
    - Restore the iPod

  • TS1373 my ipod touch 4th generation has overheated and died Anyone any ideas.?

    My iPod touch 4th generating has overheated and died Anyone any ideas?

    Have you tried a soft-reset to see if it that fixes it ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot. If not then try restoring to your last backup (after, if you can, copying purchases over to your computer's iTuNes library via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, and copying any important documents and/or photos off it)
    If that doesn't fix it then you might be better off asking in the Using iPod forum on here, this forum is for questions about the iTunes store.

    Try from a computer.   You may have to reset your password.  If you can't get the comfirmation email then you can use the secret question.  Once you can log in then you change the the email address.

  • I need to limit the range of my wireless router WRT54G - Any ideas are appreciated.

    I need to limit the range of my wireless router   WRT54G - Any ideas are appreciated.  I don't want to put on a password if I can avoid it.   Thanks for you advice in advance.  Milwaukie

    Trying to confine a wireless signal to your home is not a practical solution to security concerns.  The distance that a wireless signal will travel is mainly limited by the receiving antena and sensitivity of the receiver.  An ordinary wireless receiver can probably pick up your signal for 200 to 1000 feet.  A great receiver could probably pick up your signal from a mile or more.  The best alternatives are:
    a) convert your system to a wired system, or,
    b) encrypt your wireless using a good encryption method (WPA or preferably WPA2) and use a strong password.

  • Ipod won't connect to my wireless router.

    My ipod was working just fine at my mom's house using her wifi, but at my dad's house it won't freaking connect.
    the modem is a ssid 2wire. I don't know the model, but it's WEP password protected. Yes I have the pssword.
    The modem is using DHCP settings.
    I go to settings, wifi, click on my network, type in the password but the lock is still there. is it supposed to be?
    anyways, it says its joined, (hence the checkmark) but when I try using safari or youtube it says "cannot connect".
    I've went through the network connections on my desktop, although its connected directly to the router through LAN, and it has a diiferent subnet mask.
    ipod subnet mask : 255.255.0.0
    desktop subnet mask : 255.255.255.0
    I dont know if that makes any difference, but anayway I tried changing it to static and changing the subnet mask to the same thing. still no luck. I also tried making the IP's the same.
    Do I need to fill in the client ID, DNS, and the search domains?
    Also there was a DNS server IP on my desktop so I input that on my ipod but that only made it take longer to tell me that it couldn't connect.
    I read the wifi section in the manuals but that was useless.
    I'm kinda ****** off about it so if anyone can help me thanks.

    Well this happens to me too. In my case, the router is set to allow only and only my sisters computer to connect. It`s a router from Belgacom. Now this is just a hunch ... but the symptoms are exactly the same here ... also you should try pressing "Renew Lease".

  • After updating to 4.3.5, my iPod Touch nolonger works on my car stereo! Any idea how to restore Version 4.3.4

    Don't know if any other users have had this problem?
    I have updated my iPod Touch (4th Generation) to the latest software version (4.3.5) but now I can no longer use my iPod Touch with my car stereo.
    I drive a brand new Chevrolet Orlando, & until I updated to 4.3.5, My iPod Touch work perfectly with the inbuilt car stereo, including the steering mounted controls & displaying track names, artiest, album, Etc.
    Ever since the update, I have lost the display on the stereo, but it still recognises that I have pluged the iPod in.
    The only way I can get my iPod to play is by playing a track through the inbuilt speaker (on the iPod) & then plugging it into the car stereo.
    When I do this thou, I have no control over what is being played as I am unable to skip tracks/play list/Etc & I have no track information, which I could do when my iPod Touch was running software version 4.3.4 & below!
    Is there any way I can reinstall version 4.3.4? I have tried to do a restore through iTunes, but it keeps installing 4.3.5! I have tried to reset my iPod, but again it reinstalls 4.3.5
    Any help & advice would be great!

    Just to add a bit more information here! LOL!
    Tried the followind devises on the car stereo & here are the results -
    My Wifes iPhone 3G running iOS 4.3.2 = Worked fine!
    My Sons iPhone 4G running iOS 4.3.4 = Worked fine!
    My Sons iPod Classic running iOS 2.2.1 = Worked fine!
    My Daughters iPod Touch (3rd Gen) running iOS 4.3.3 = Worked fine!
    I think this rules out the problem being with my iPod Touch, as it is the only Apple product we as a family own which has been updated to 4.3.5! The rest of my family are now holding off updating there's! LOL!!

  • Ipod Touch wont sync but Nano does...any ideas?

    My ipod touch is no longer syncing.  New one - 64gb.  I also have an 8gb nano - latest version and it syncs fine from same itunes.  Wondering if it is a hardware conflict.  I read about hp driver for scanne rconflict and uninstalled to no avail.  Out of ideas.  Anyone please?
    Latest version of ipod SW and latest version of itunes installed.  Windows 7.

    I assume yu mean that iTunes does not see your iPOd Touch.
    Yes, it is likely that the scanner software is casung the problem.  However, first try:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    Is the scanner sofware still uninstalled?  It should be. Also try removing and reinstall the Apple software by using the Vista/Win7 link provided in:
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

  • IPod Touch cannot connect to wireless network

    I have a 1 TB, dual-band time capsule with a wireless network created to share our broadband internet connection for our main computer (the iMac), a windows PC, an iPhone 3G, and a 2nd gen iPod touch to connect to the internet. Wireless security for this network is WPA/WPA2 Personal. The windows box and the iPhone 3G connect without problem, but the iPod touch does not seem to connect correctly. The device sees the network, prompts for the password, and seems to be connected (wi-fi symbol visible in top left corner of device), but when trying to view a website using the Safari app, the screen dims and an endless "Connecting..." message is visible. Furthermore, when trying to update e-mail, I get a message that the connection to the server failed.
    It is worth noting that the iPod did not always have this problem. It was able to connect to the wi-fi network until a few weeks ago. This may have been due to the upgrade to Snow Leopard, or perhaps due to an incident where the windows PC lost its connection to the network. When this occurred, I had to disable all security on the network, connect the PC to the network, then re-enable security (as I had to do when first installing the Time Capsule; for whatever reason, the windows box had a hard time joining the network with security enabled). Anyway, one of these two events is the likely cause of the iPod suddenly being unable to connect; I'm sorry to say that I'm uncertain as to which one, because my wife uses the device sporadically, so we cannot pinpoint exactly when this difficulty started.
    As for attempted solutions, I tried resetting the iPod back to factory settings, only to have the same connection issues. I also changed the network security settings to None, and attempted to connect the iPod to the network (even though it should have no problem connecting to a secure network), but still no go. I am short on ideas for a fix, and would gladly welcome any advice the community has to offer. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

    Pretty much the same thing happened to me. My new Touch connects fine to my work wireless network (WEP64) - still does. But my home wireless network is SOL. I can join the router, wireless icon is in upper left corner (although gray, not green). I can even see the Touch from my router (Verizon FIOS). All other laptops in the house including wireless TiVo work flawlessly. I have not undone my security on my router yet - looks like it won't help. I have tried using static IP and I can still see iPod from router. But I cannot browse, go to AppStore, check email (which works great from work network), and have exact same error messages as above post. It has to be a security thing somewhere, I just didn't want to mess with router if I didn't have to. If I figure it out, I will post here........

  • IPod Touch only connects to home network; not Airport, Starbucks, Panera...

    Before I start, I've read the FAQs and have looked through a number of topics already posted.
    I seem to have the opposite problem everyone else is having. My iPod Touch connects just fine to my home wireless... It connects and I'm able to browse the internet, download apps, etc without fail.
    However, when I was at the airport recently (both St. Louis and Dallas/Ft. Worth), my Touch would "connect" to the wireless there, but I couldn't go on the 'net or get new apps, etc. It was behaving as if I wasn't at a location with wireless access. When I returned home, I went to Starbucks, Panera, McDonald's... several places with free, open, easy-to-connect WiFi (and took my laptop to make sure that their wireless was working), and had the same problems as I did at the airport.
    Considering the best part of having wireless on the Touch is that you should be able to access it anywhere with WiFi, it seems kind of "useless" to have it only work at home (I have two computers at home; so it's not like I need to use the Touch for internet there).
    Any thoughts? Obviously, the whole "check your router settings" / "reset your router" answers are not going to help me, as I have no control over those, nor can I see them at these places. Help would be greatly appreciated!

    I'm having the same problem. My iPod Touch connects to my home network and another secure network for which I enter the network name and password. However I am unable to connect to any free WiFi, even when my laptop can access it with no problem. The signal is apparently strong; I can see all the bars on the upper left, but when trying to connect to Safari or the app store it says that there is no connection.
