No more wiFi ??
I had my Wireless G router for 3 years now and it was been working great until this morning. I can't connect any device to my router now. My Laptop was working fine, I could play my xBox, and I could even get connects to my iPod. But now every time I try to connect to the router, it gives me a error. My security and all that is OK because I tried to fix it that way and I still couldn't connect with no password protected on it
When I troubleshoot the problem, it tells me to unplug the router and modem for 10 sec and all that stuff, and I did that. That was the first thing I did and it still doesn't work.
I can connect to the internet via cord but that defeats the purpose of a Laptop because I use it mainly by WiFi.
I called the tech support and he said that I had to reconfigure my router but that would cost money and I don't have time for that. All I want to do is fix my wiFi .
Any ideas ?????? Thanks in advance.
Unfortunately it will take you more time to figure out why it isn't getting on the Setup Page, might as well give reconfiguration a go if the router is not responding anymore.

Impossible to move the wifi on/off button in settings, no more wifi
Udated my i4s to iOS7 on 09.18 , wifi works perfectly until this morning.
Suddenly it's gone, impossible to move the wifi on/off button in settings, no more wifi
a) Tried this > http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1559
Result = DOESN'T WORK
b) Tried this solution http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414,
my i4S is virgin new, but the on/off button in settings is still not working = no wifi
I'm really disapointed, and I WILL NOT BUY A NEW i5S, or an i5C.
<Re-Titled By Host>This is a known issue and Apple is working to release a patch very soon.

MBP 17 sees many more wifi networks than MP
I have a Mac Pro (Jan 2008) and a MacBook Pro 17" (Jan 2009).
I've noticed, when I click on the Airport Icon on the menubar, the MacBook Pro scans and sees many more wifi networks than the Mac Pro does... 6 or more versus 3. (My network, and others in the neighborhood.)
I'm curious. How is the Airport client card in the MBP different from the one in the MP? Does the MP get a weakling Airport card (expecting that it wouldn't move around too much?)
I haven't yet had the time to experiment with moving my Airport Base Station too far away from the MP (more than a few feet.) What are your experiences with the Airport card in the Mac Pro? How does it compare with the wifi in your MacBook Pro?My MP was purchased online with the Airport Extreme card included.
I had to have my MBP replaced, for a different reason. This new one doesn't see any more wifi networks than my MP does... it sees the same ones. Now my question has become... a non-issue. Too bad it didn't occur to me to record the specs of the AE in my previous MBP. It was probably the same as in my new MBP (?)
Sysprof says the following about the Airport Card in my MBP:
Wireless Card Type: AirPort Extreme (0x14E4, 0x8D)
Wireless Card Locale: USA
Wireless Card Firmware Version: Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 (5.10.38.27)
Wireless Channel: 7

The card type is (slightly) different !? -
No more WIFI on wireless radio
Lenovo R61i - 8932 - AEG - XP Pro SP 3. The wireless radio on ThinkVantage Access Connections (TVAC) has lost the WIFI icon and only shows the Bluetooth connection. However the adapter Intel PRO Wireless 3945ABG is visible (and active) in windows networks. I can connect the wifi through Windows, bypassing TVAC...
When I try to add a new TVAC profile the initial screen shows that the wifi adapter is present, however when I fill in an SSID the wireless mode field and also the wireless security type field are blank (in other words I can't even choose / fill in the security code / encryption type etc....)
I already deleted / updated TVAC and the Intel driver but this didn't help... How can I refresh TVAC so that it recognises the wifi-nbetwork-card again?
New World. No Thinking. No more Lenovo.Bump. New World. NO Thinking?
(Belgian) Lenove helpdesk was useless as always, advised me to completely re-install the computer to see what would happen. That was after I lost nearly half a day by deleting and re-installing TVAC, deleting and re-installing wifi-drivers, deleting and revceating profiles, etc.., etc...
The solution I found was to delete the Thinkvantage Access Connection software and to connect through Windows.

No more wifi and bluetooth after a restoration OS3 to OS4
Hi,
My iPod touch 3G 32go (MC008NF) was updated to OS 4.2.3 and everything was working OK, one day it gave me the screen "connect to iTunes" with the usb cable symbol. I had to make a restore, and I did not pay attention that my last backup was on OS 3.
It works fine, but I lost the wifi and the bluetooth, even after an blank restore, and all the steps mentionned on the apple official assistance guide.
I have then made an upgrade to OS 4.3.5 (8L1) to check if this problem was solved, but no and I still have the same probleme.
The informations menu gives me "Wi-Fi adress : N/A" and "Bluetooth : 00:00:00:00:00:00". The network menu gives me "no Wi-Fi" and the bluetooth menu says "unavailable" (in French...)
I had tried to se someone at the apple store from Paris, but they told me I need to buy a new one.. As this is not my fault but more a problem in the update system I was wondering if someone had a solution for that ?
Thank you
ThibautIf you tried everthing here, then it is a hardware problem. I know of no solution for fixing the broken one.

But wait, there's more... more wifi problems = glad to have my nexus 7
i work in a wifi zone. who doesn't. i used to use my ipad 2 (64gig wifi+3g iOS 6.0.1) all the time here to get things from dropbox or take notes with evernote, or to surf answers to questions posed in meetings. wonderful tool. then i updated the OS to 6...
and now i can't use it for more than a couple of minutes before wifi quits working.
i get the same spining wheel of death in the settings>wifi that others have complained about.
i've started carrying my nexus 7 around with the ipad and without failing even a single time the nexus has never had an issue connecting while the ipad sits and spins its wheel of death.
and all this can be had for $1,000 with tax. yea.
at home my wifi connectivity is much better with the ipad, but still it's worse than it was before the 'update'. further, if the nexus can connect i expect the 4 times more expensive, from the great minds at apple, ipad to be able to connect also.
guess i was wrong.
i don't get angry when computers can't do complex things that are relatively new, but wifi isn't new, and i get immensly hacked off when a company breaks a basic functionality of a devise and offers nary a word on a fix.
face it folks. this is just another IT gadget made by just another computer company.iOS 6.1 was just released today. Maybe there's a wifi fix.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

I have successfully been using XP in Bootcamp (BC) for several years now. For some reason, within the last month, the BC partition does not recognize any wifi networks at all; ethernet connection works fine. I am using a MBP purchased May 2008, running Snowleopard on the Mac side without any problems. BC partition created 2.5-3 years ago with a full HD wipe and reinstallation of everything (Just like new!). I tried reinstalling the BC drivers but it doesn't seem to have made any difference.
Thoughts?1. Have you tried rebooting router?

No more Wifi from my iMac after switching to Lion
Hello.
I just switched my iMac 24 from 10.6.8 to 10.7.3 with the latest updates.
My iMac is connected to the Internet using an Ethernet cable. The Internet connection works fine.
I used to use my iMac as a Wifi router so that my iphone and my air can use it to access the internet.
Since I've switched to Lion on my Mac (and not my air), both my iphone and my air cannot connect to the iMac.
I've told both my iphone and air to "forget" about my iMac previous details and rebooted both of them - result FAILED
I've removed the Wifi setting by clicking on on the iMac preferences and restart a fresh one ; I've tried to connect using my iphone and air - FAILEDJust removed the Wifi from Networks. Recreated a Wifi Network. Went to Sharing and Internet Sharing. Renamed the Wifi Name - SUCCESS !!!!!
So, even if you remove the old Wifi connections, rename them.
(I think that's a bug). -
My iPad fell & no more wifi connections :(
I used to connect with my home wifi easily until it fell down, it doesn't show any networks under "choose a network" although am near the modem.
I tries reseting the network, didn't work ..

Oh. I thought you meant your rounter or modem or something fell. Yeah if your internet stopped working on ipad after it fell, then Stuwawah is right you will probably need to take it to your local apple store! -
After last software update yesterday, the ATV3 would block after language question and keep repeating that screen.
Tried to manually upgrade with mini USB and iTunes but no change, it stayed in a loop with that question after boot.
So I installed previous upgrade again ( 5.02) and now I don't have any wifi detection anymore.
Cable still works .
Anyone an idea?
How to upgrade to the latest software and have the ATV3 working again?
And how to get the wifi back?1. Have you tried rebooting router?

Hi, I used to have internetconnection with wifi but all of a sudden not anymore. Other computers here still have it.
Somebody else has used my laptop, but he claims not having changed anything.
So my question is, how can I reset the original settings to get back conncted to Philips Wifi
Thank you very muchRun Applications/Utilities/Airport Setup Utility and enter the appropriate network and user details.

So, if I am somewhere that I can be connected to WIFI, my phone automatically uses that to connect to the internet? Is there a way to tell whether you are connected by WIFI or not? If I am at home, I assume it will join automatically. But how do I know? Thanks. Any info about how this works would be most appreciated.
You will se the wi-fi indicator next to the signal strength.
Maybe you should look at the manual:

I took out the wifi location data from the consolidated file and plotted into google maps. Clearly, not all those wifi networks are in areas or really close to areas I've been to, yet somewhat close. Does it mean that if I am within a range of a wifi network my iphone will not only collect location data of that particular wifi network but also all others that are within reach of that wifi network and so forth?

Why do both apple devices have different amount of wifi bars in the same location?
If the mail carrier use the mail type called pop3 then when mails are downloaed to a device they are removed from the server unless one set in the settings they are not to be so
If your carrier support the newer types of mail called imap or exchange this will not be the case check if they do
Or look in the settings for a leave on server -
