NetworkManager timeouts and can't connect
Hello,
I have a fresh install of Arch and I'm not succeeding in connecting with Network Manager. I followed the Wiki article, but everytime I run NetworkManager (either through applet or command line), it fails.
$ nmcli d wifi connect myNetwork
Error: Timeout 90 sec expired
(I get prompted for password a few times)
I checked the general troubleshooting but nothing there seemed to relate to my problem. I'm able to connect with netctl (through wifi-menu), though, which is what I'm using to post here.
If you're not using a DE or other packages that require it, you might consider chucking NetworkManager.
I know this isn't really an answer to the question you're asking, but I offer it because I had several networks at my office that I could never connect to with NetworkManager. However, once I switched to connman I haven't had any problems since. Connman doesn't offer an official applet or integration on the level of NetworkManager, but it's much lighter and faster and isn't too hard to configure. The connman wiki article doesn't offer much; I suggest looking at the source's configuration doc for specifics on setting up networks. I'm using qconnman-ui and it seems to work well.

Time Capsule woes -- Connection timeouts and can't connect with one Macbook
This is my second Time Capsule. Here's the scenario:
I have a Netopia 3347 DSL modem. That feeds into the Time Capsule in bridge mode. There is a MacBook (metal case), iBook (yes, it's old), two iphones, a color printer and an iPad that can all connect to the Time Capsule just fine. The problem is my MacBook can't connect. The offending computer is a 2.2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo running SL 10.6.6. This computer can connect to the Netopia just fine, so I know its internal Airport works. After several go arounds with Apple tech support, I'm still nowhere.
Here are the symptoms:
1. I can see the TC's network SSID in the airport pull down menu. If I select the TC, a popup appears and asks for a password. If I enter the password, I'll get a connection timeout error.
2. On the rare occasions where it does connect, I can't open a webpage. Network diagnostics has red dots for ISP Internet and Server
3. On the even rarer occasions where it does connect, and I can access a webpage, it's unbearably slow, and the no-surf problem reappears after a few seconds. The red dots on the Network Diagnostics reappear.
Apple tech support was not helpful. I've power cycled everything a million times (and that doesn't explain why other computers can connect.) I know it's not my computer, because it can connect to the Netopia just fine.
I am STUMPED.Magnificent! Problem solved... Isn't there a "this solved my problem" button somewhere?? Thanks and thanks again!

Ipad mini 32 and can't connect to my HP Pavilion DM1 windows 8 via bluetooth
Just got a new Ipad mini 32 and can't connect to my HP Pavilion DM1 windows 8 via bluetooth. I get to the stage where you have to confirm on both systems the generated code and then it goes in error. Not supported. Any clue ?
Unless you have an iOS app that uses BT for a specific purpose, such as file transfer, BT on the iPad alone, as stated, does not support it.

I have the new IPad and can't connect via bluetooth to any of my apple devices (IPhone 4s and appleTV) neither from my new IPhone 4s. When I turn the Bluetooth on, both devices keep in searching mode... I don't know what to do now... Please help... I can't pair any device because they can't find whitin themselves.

Hello, I have an Iphone 3GS and can't connect to Game Center. It recognizes my apple ID account, states it was never used with Game Center. Then asks for country, birthdate, then returns to ask country again, then birthdate, and returns to the loop. Never ends the loop unless I cancel the setup process. I have restored the iphone to the factory settings and restored the backup, but did not work. Any suggestions on what can be the problem? thank you.
I just read another post that says you can go into a game that allows for multiple players and utalizes game center and enter your account information that way. I haven't tried it yet, but it seems to work for others that had this issue.

i have a ipad2 and can only connect to the internet on safari but not any WiFi related apps such as YouTube or Facebook. plz help.
Try changing the channel in use in case you're getting interference.
If you have WEP enabled on the Internet Sharing it'ss worth disabling it whilst troubleshooting the connectivity issues.

My daugter is out of the country and can't connect to WiFi
My daughter is out of the country and can't connect to WiFi or make any calls. We added International Calling to her phone plan. While she was in the airport in the US the problem started, and continued once she reached her destination. Verizon can't figure out what the problem is, and I'm wondering if it's a hardware issue?
First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
