New ThinkPad X201 won't connect

The Wi-Fi card in my new X201 is a "Thinkpad b/g/n" mini-pci card II"
I can't discern the manufacturer but someone said it's probably RealTek.
Running System > Administration > Hardware Drivers comes up with nothing.
Any ideas? No one on the Ubuntu forums is responding, so far.
(Wish I'd gotten the Intel wi-fi card.) The card works fine in Windows.
Anyone know where or how to get a driver for this?
ThinkPad X201
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Here it is:
"Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device 8172 (rev 10)"
Know of a driver for this one?
I'm marking this as "Solved" because I just ordered the Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6200 card from Lenovo through a local authorized Lenovo Service Center. They will be installing it for me.
I had the 6200 in my T410 (now sold) and I know it will work fine.
Thanks for your reply.

My new Macbook air won't connect to my Vizio HDTV.

My new Macbook Air won't connect to my Vizio VO32LF HDTV. I bought a mini-displayport to HDMI cable to connect the two. When I connect the cable, and switch to the appropriate HDMI input on the TV, my Macbook Air screen will flash blue for a second, and then return to normal. The TV reports it's unable to find a signal. I use the HDTV as my primary monitor, so I'd really appreciate some help on getting the two to place nicely together!

Cp,
Thanks for the reply. However, it appears that the issue is not with the hotspot, but with the network settings in the MacBook Air as every other device I have (including non-Apple devices) will connect to the iPhone hotspot. Another symptom is that my MacBook Air can find my iMac (and other network devices) on my wireless network, but the iMac can't find the MacBook Air.

New ipod touch won't connect to itunes

My new iPod touch won't connect to itunes on my iMac. I have several devices already connected to this itunes library, any suggestions? Thanks.

See:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
You need iTunes 10.5 or later and that requires OSX 10.5.8 or later.

I'm having trouble setting up my new 5s. it won't connect to phone service and my old phone is still getting all my messages

i'm having trouble setting up my new 5s. it won't connect to phone service and my old phone is still getting all my messages

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone_5
the iPhone5 has 1GB of RAM, and internal storage of 16, 32, or 64GB.
It does not use SD cards.
Fake iphones are really Android phones using the skin of iOS6.
Click on the App Store icon. If it takes you to Apple's App Store, then it's a real iPhone.
But if you are directed to Google Play, then I'm afraid you've gotten a copy.

New iPhone 4s won't connect to internet

New iPhone 4s won't connect to internet beyond my home wi fi. How can I correct this? I need internet where I go.

I've got exactly the same problem.
Upgraded to iOS7 all was fine.
It then prompted me to upgrade to 7.0.2 and now my iPhone 4s won't connect to Internet anymore.
There was also a carrier settings update that I accepted which could have broken things.
I've tried different APN settings but it still won't connect for me :-(
Tried a Reset Network Setting, and the problem is the same.

New iPod Touch won't connect to wifi

I recently purchased three 32GB iPod Touch's for my children for Christmas. I'm trying to set them up ready to go, but one of them just won't connect to my wifi. The other two have no trouble, connected immediately. Can anyone shed some light on this or do I need to make an appointment at the apple store? I have tried to reset the network settings, it has made no difference unfortunately.

Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Does the iPod see the network?
Any error messages?
Try:
- 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 the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

New iPhone 5C won't connect to wi-fi

Just got new Apple iPhone 5c. It won't connect to my home Wi-Fi. Doesn't even ask me for password. Just says "unable to join the network." Help!!

Congrats on getting the new iPhone, Jante! Have you been able to connect this new phone to any wi-fi services besides your home? If the home wi-fi is being picked up on the phone, I would recommend forgetting the network and start over. Here is a great link that will show you how to perform 'Forget Network' : http://vz.to/OmVF84 and see if this will help out with getting connected to home wifi. Please keep us posted.

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

My new iPhone 5 won't connect to iTunes, and when I connect to my computer it comes up as a usb storage device, also in the phone itself under usage it shows internal memory of 2gb and sd card 64 gb, is this an original iPhone or have I been sold a copy

My new iphone 5 can not connect to itunes, it comes up as a usb storage device when I plug it in, also in the phone under settings/usage it shows internal memory of 2gb and SD card of 64gb, I cannot get it to connect to itunes at all so cannot sync etc, is this a genuine Iphone or a copy. I have owned 4 iphones and never had a problem with connecting to iphones and restoreing to a backup.

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone_5
the iPhone5 has 1GB of RAM, and internal storage of 16, 32, or 64GB.

Brand new macbook air won't connect to my wi-fi

Was really looking forward to no more Vista but have had to go back to the old laptop to ask this question.
I switched on the Macbook Air, followed the setup and waited for it to detect our wi-fi. I selected it and entered the password but it cannot connect, and doesn't give a reason. I tried several times and even disconnected my old laptop and reconnected to prove I was using the right password.
Our router is a Belkin_N1 and there's no setting on the MacBook to configure it, other than the password. I've obviously done all the usual things like switching off and on again, making sure the right case was selected.
I've been Windows up till now but was expecting the Macbook Air to be as slick as my iphone. Have I made a bad mistake, and how do I get some support for this issue?>

Thanks Xandris. That was one of many steps we tried, and we're still offline
We spent 2 hours on the phone with Apple yesterday and there are still no resolutions. We think they secretly believe our router is faulty or we are putting in the password incorrectly.
Last week we added a Canon printer to the network and after our call with Apple yesterday we gave up on the Macbook and set up our new Samsung TV, which also connected to the Router without problem While on the call I deleted the router from the list in my iphone and reestablished it successfully. The problem must rest with the macbook
Our next steps are to take it to our Apple solutions centre later today. If they can't fix it we can get a new Macbook.
I'd booked out large chunks of my weekend to play with my new toy and get it up to speed with my life, so I'm feeling slightly deflated at the moment

Brand new Apple TV won´t connect to Internet

I just bought an Apple TV 3rd generation today. Unfortunately I´m having some issues installing it.
The Apple TV does connect to my wifi network but won´t connect to Internet. I´m currently using Time Capsule as router and thought that all Apple gadgets would have no problems connecting to each other. Both my Macbook Air and iPhone can connect to Internet when using the same wifi. I´ve tried to restart and restore Apple TV a few times and have also restarted my router. Apple suggested that when troubleshooting, but it did not work. Anyone who knows how to solve this problem?

I´m not sure what just happened, but when I woke up this morning and started Apple TV it worked. Haven´t done any changes in settings...
Out of curiosity, if the same problem occurs again how would I solve the internet connection problem. Yesterday I just saw computers/settings on the main screen.

Brand New iPhone 6 won't connect to wifi.

So i just got my iphone 6 today and i just got home and it won't connect to my wifi..I have tried turning off wifi networking and rebooting, and I've checked my password multiple times and it keeps saying "Incorrect password for (Wifi Name)"

Reboot your router by removing all power from it for 15-30 seconds. If it still says "incorrect password" then the password is incorrect.

New iMac 5k won't connect using ethernet

I was in the process of transferring VMWare/Windows from my MacPro to my new 5k iMac. With VMWare help I started transferring a 25 GB file and noticed it was going to take quite a while wirelessly, so I connected both macs to my Actiontec modem/ router. The MacPro connected effortlessly, but the new iMac won't properly connect. In the Network box it says "Ethernet has a self assigned IP address and will not be able to connect to the internet". The connection shows a yellow dot. I tried manually assigning 192.168.1.6 (from the Actiontec log on page) and the Network page says connected (dot turns green), yet when I turn off wifi there is no connection. I've tried other options such as "using DCHP with manual address", but am unable to connect via ethernet cable.
A few days ago, when working with Apple support, I believe we did use ethernet successfully. Thoughts?

The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

New iPhone 4s won't connect to Internet unless on wifi

I just got the new iPhone 4s. Problem is that whenever I'm not at home and connected to my wifi, I am unable to open anything on Internet. Just says server cannot open page. The 3G icon is showing but nothing will open. And sometimes it won't even send my text messages, I just get that failure to send in red under the message. Any idea of how to correct this issue???
Thanks

Sorry ... this might be a silly question but have you contacted your mobile service provider. Maybe the 3G service is down. Maybe they change some settings on their 3G service and did not inform their customers. It doesn't hurt to run the phone configuration through with them anyway.
Just a thought.
