Not able to connect on my secured wireless network

I am having WRT54G2 router and i configure my router for my home. I configured it as secured network. I have a laptop (IBM Thinkpad R52). But i am not able to connect my home wireless secured network. When i try to connect any other unsecured (open to all) network from my laptop it allows me. For any secured network it says Acquiring Network address. What should I do?

What encryption are you using?
What operating system are you using?
For WEP, you must enter WEP "key 1" (found in the router) into your computer, not the WEP password or passphrase.
For WPA or WPA2, you must enter the key (sometimes called password or passphrase) into your computer.
Note that WPA2 (= WPA with AES) requires that you upgrade Windows XP to SP3. If you have not done this yet, do this now. Note that Windows Vista already works with WPA2.
If you still have trouble connecting, in the computer, temporarily disable your software firewall, including Windows Firewall, and see if that helps.
If you still have trouble, download and install the latest driver for the wireless adapter in your computer.

I currently have a WPN824 v3 Netgear router and I'm trying to set up my Apple TV. I'm able to connect it to my wireless network but my airplay feature is currently not working.

I currently have a WPN824 v3 Netgear router and I’m trying to set up my Apple TV. I am able to connect it to my wireless network but my airplay feature is currently not working. The icon does not appear on any of my devices. My ipad and ipones all are currently up to date and are all joined to the same network. Is it the way that my router is configured. Please help let me know what I need to change in my router settings or does my router not work with Airplay. Or is there a simple fix.

you don't mention which products you use
only ipad2 and up support mirror
and only iphone4s and up support mirror
other devices only use airplay for apps which support tvout options

Unable to connect to a secure wireless network - Event ID: 8002 Task Category: AcmConnection..., Event ID: 11006, Event ID: 11006

Hi,
I have a Dell Latitude E6440 running Win 7
Enterprise 64 on a domain. It will connect to any unsecured network, and it can see the secured network in the list when I click the wireless connection icon on the system tray. When I go to manage wireless networks, the secured network does not show
up (and thus, I cannot delete the network to try to re-add it). Normally, we would add the secure network here. I click Add, give the name in the correct syntax, add the needed information (WPA/2-Enterprise, EAS or TKIP), and hit Next, it immediately returns
with "An unexpected error occurred". A similar thing happens when I hit Connect from the list of available networks that pops up when I open the system tray icon: it says it was unable to connect, when I hit troubleshoot, it says that it could not
identify the problem. The event log shows the error below. I haven't been able to find any resolutions here or elsewhere that address the fact that I can connect to unsecured wireless networks, but not secured wireless networks.
Other notable troubleshooting steps:
Uninstalled/Reinstalled wireless adapter with the latest driver
Other laptops are able to access the same secure wireless network
The first WLAN-AutoConfig error in the event log was Event ID: 12013, attempting a 802.1x authentication. Then Event ID: 11006; stating "Explicit Eap failure received". After a few days of alternating all 3 errors, they started to only error on

My iphone 4S is not able to connect to my home wifi network although it easily connects to others. Infact, i have tried connecting another iphone with my home network without any difficulty. So its just my new iphone 4S that is not connecting.

My iphone 4S is not able to connect to my home wifi network (BSNL). It does detect it and even tries to connect to it but in vain. However, it connects to all other available networks easily. Another interesting thing is that all other devices including an iphone 4 easily connects to this home network. So what is the problem with iphone 4S???

There are two ends to a wireless network. Try rebooting your router. Just pull the power for a few seconds and replug. No settings are lost.
(The fact that all your other devices connect to the internet is irrelevant)

HP Deskjet 3050 - Unable to connect to WPA secured wireless network

Hello,
My first post here so please excuse any faux pas on my part. I bought this HP Deskjet 3050 a week ago and have been waging war with it ever since. I'd be really grateful if someone could possibly advise on how I can resolve this.
I am unable to connect the printer to my secured wireless network, even though other computers, cell phones, etc. are connected without issue. I have tried WPA, WPA2 and WPA2-Mixed security modes with the same failure. Specifically, the connection wizard reaches 66% and then displays the error that the wizard is unable to find network/printer. If I disable the security, the printer connects fine.
I'm using a Linksys WRVS4400N router with firewall and associated firewall settings disabled. The router is broadcasting on 802.11G/N mixed mode.
I'm installing the software supplied on the setup CD on a Windows XP SP3 system. I have confirmed that the network the PC and printer are connected to are the same.
A question as well, if I may: I haven't tried these drivers yet but I see there are updated drivers for the printer dated 14/12/2010. The release notes indicate improved networking, but don't elaborate beyond this. Does anyone know if there was a known problem with connecting to secured networks that has now been fixed?
Finally, just a note that I'm partially sighted and am using a screen reader on all systems. I'll try my best to be as helpful as I can but please do excuse me if I occasionally can't find settings, etc. on screen and need a bit more detailed help.
Thanks in advance for your help, which I really will appreciated.
Have a pleasant day,
All the best for now and take care,
Hussein.
It's not the fact it can't be done, it's the fact it hasn't been done, yet.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

HI,
firstly, apologies for the delay getting back to you. Poor health has meant I've had little time nor inclination to do much on the computer side of htings.
Anyway, I'm please to say the problem with the HP 3050 failing to connect to my network is now solved. It seems to be a bug with the setup software, and that seems to include the latest version posted Dec 2010.
To resolve the problem, I did the following:
1. Disable all security options for the network, so it's just an open network.
2. Connect the HP 3050 to the network using the setup wizard. This time it connected OK for me.
3. Locate the printer's IP address. I used the client list table accessed through my router's interface. You may be able to get this through the printer's on-screen menu, but as I'm partially sighted, this wasn't an option for me.
4. Log into the printer's control panel at http://ip.address.of.printer e.g. http://192.168.2.108
5. Under the advanced options, configure the settings for the network, including security protocol and passphrase. Remember to enter the SSID of the network exactly as configured on the router.
6. Apply the settings and log out of the printer's control panel.
7. Log back into the router's control panel and re-apply the security options. Be sure that they match those match those entered for the printer.
Hopefully this will be of use to others in the same position.
Thanks again for your time.
Best,
H.
It's not the fact it can't be done, it's the fact it hasn't been done, yet.

Airport is not able to connect to Dlink G604T wireless

I'm experiencing this bug:
Airport is able to recognize an open wireless connection provided by G604T dlink router. So Airport try to connect (no pwd are required, the wireless isn't encrypted). The error is due to timeout connection (as showed by SL pop up).
I've tried many solution (as to delete library/preferencies/systemconfiguration files, or to update the firmware at ftp://ftp.dlink.co.uk/dslroutersmodems/dsl-g604t/ , or to change wi-fi channel, or to create a new user, or to create a new connection profile, and so on). Nothing solved the bug.
Other suggestions are pretty apprecciated.
Thanks a lot.

Not able to connect to firewire drive on network

Hey there knowledgeable people I'm having problems connecting to a firewire drive on a network at home any help greatly appreciated. here's the set up.
G5 has 5 firewire drives daisy-chained together and there's also a lone USB drive attached to it as well. G5 is plugged into (via eternet) an eternet hub. my powerbook is also plugged into the network via the hub. I can see/access all the drives on the G5 (including the USB) but there's one firewire drive that I can't see (it is formatted FAT32, is that an issue?). I've tried plugging it into the G5 on its own without going through the daisy-chain but still nothing.
any thoughts as to why? oh and both computers are running 10.5.2
cheers, Julian

Never mind my question any more. I reformatted the drive in question to Mac Journaled and presto it shows up on the network no probs.

Oracle database not able to connect in network

Hi all,
I have one problem.I have created a new database in Oracle 9i.This database I am trying to connect as system user,with a password.I am able to connect the darabase

Message:
Io exception: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection
can anyone help me out in this issue?
thanks and regards
Dhanesh

You are attempting to connect to an Oracle instance using JDBC and you are receiving the following error.
java.sql.SQLException: Io exception:
The Network Adapter could not establish connection
SQLException: SQLState (null) vendor code (17002)
Any or all of the following conditions may also apply:
1) You are able to establish a SQL*Plus connection from the same
client to the same Oracle instance.
2) You are able to establish a JDBC OCI connection, but not a Thin
connection from the same client to the same Oracle instance.
3) The same JDBC application is able to connect from a different
client to the same Oracle instance.
4) The same behavior applies whether the initial JDBC connection
string specifies a hostname or an IP address.
Also
The Network Adapter exception is caused because:
1. The database host name or port number is wrong.
2. The database TNSListener has not been started. The TNSListener may be started with the lsnrctl utility.
Please let us know where is the actual problem , then we can help you out.

Not able to connect my Iphone to my WRT54GS router with security enabled

As the subject line states, I'm not able to connect my Iphone to my WRT54GS router when the security is enabled. When ever I attempt to connect to my network with my phone it always tells me the password is incorrect. I have double checked the password in the easylink advisor and it matches up. I have also tried both WPA and WEP with the same result, I know that the wireless is working on the router as I turned the security off and was able to connect to it. I updated the firmware this evening also with no changes. If anyone could help me with this issue it would be much appreciated.

First of all, in the router, give your network a unique SSID. Do not use "linksys". If you are using "linksys" you may be trying to connect to your neighbor's router. Also, in the router, set "SSID Broadcast" to "enabled". This will help your iPhone find and lock on to your router's signal.
To connect using WEP, enter WEP "key 1" (found in the router) into the iPhone, not the WEP password or passphrase.
To connect using WPA, make sure that there is not an encryption nomenclature problem. For example, WPA is not the same as WPA with AES. Please note the following:
WPA = PSK = WPA with TKIP = WPA personal
WPA2 = PSK2 = WPA with AES = WPA2 personal
I am not certain, but your iPhone probably does just ordinary WPA (not WPA with AES). Assuming that this is correct, then the router should be set to:
"WPA personal" with "TKIP"
Also, in the iPhone, be sure to delete the entry for your unsecured connection to your router, before you try to input info regarding the secured connection to the router.
Hope this helps.

AirPort Express Not Able to Connect Wirelessly

Hardware is iMac 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM. Mac OS 10.6.8
Connected to Internet via Motorola Surfboard SBG6580 Modem / Router, so I connect by wireless through the modem.
I followed the installation instructions to install AirPort Express to play music on my home stereo. I connected the Airport Express to the receiver by the tape port. I was not able to install AirpPort Express via wireless mode, so I connected the iMac to the AirPort Express by CAT-5 hard wire cord. The installation was successful and the AirpPort Express obtained an AP address. I was then able to play music from iTunes pm the iMac through the stereo speakers...as long as the AirPort Express was connected by hard wire to the iMac.
When I remove the CAT-5 cord from the AirPort Express, the AirPort Express retains the green light, but it is not able to receive data from the iMac. To the contrary, the AirPort Utility is not able to find any AirPort wireless devices unless the AirPort Express is connected via the hard wire CAT-5 cord.
As an experiment, I then connected the AirPort Express to the cable modem / router via the hard wire CAT-5 cord. The AirPort utility on the iMac was still not able to find any AirPort wireless devices. Further, the model then assigned a different AP address to the iMac so that it was not able to connect to the Internet..
Meanwhile, the AirPort Express still retains the green light, indicating the installation was a success and that it is ready to transmit.
Any advice to resolve this issue would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

I suggest that you start by performing a "factory default" reset on the 802.11n AirPort Express Base Station (AXn) to get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration. By default, the AXn will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name of something like: Apple Network NNNNNN
After the reset has completed, plug the AXn into power, and then, verify from the iMac that this network shows up in the list of networks under the AirPort icon in the OS X menu bar. Does it?
If so, then from the AirPort icon, switch your iMac to connect to the AXn's wireless network. Note: You will temporarily lose the Internet connection from your Motorola router. Then, run the AirPort Utility. The Utility should now find the AXn. If not, use the Utility's "Configure Other" option under the File menu option in the Utility's menu bar. Enter 10.0.1.1 for the Address and "public" for the Password.
AirPort Utility > Select the AXn > Manual Setup > AirPort > Wireless
Wireless Mode: Join a wireless network
Network Name: <existing Motorola's wireless network>
Wireless Security: <select the encryption type of the existing wireless network>
Wireless Password: <enter the existing wireless network password>
Verify Password: <re-enter the existing wireless network password>
AirPort Utility > Select the AXn > Manual Setup >Music
Enable AirPlay (checked)
iTunes Speaker Name: <enter desired speaker name>
iTunes Speaker Password: (optional)

Click Update to write the new settings to the AX

Not able to connect to wireless network using WEP 128 bit hex password

I'm using a 128 bit hex WEP password on a Belkin wireless router.
My ascii passphrase is 13 characters.
I tried using the hex password generated by the Belkin router, as well as the hex equivalent of my ascii passphrase. Every time, I am told that either "there was an error connecting to the network" or the "password is incorrect" message.
I'm using channel 7, but have also tried with channel 11.
I tried using a $ sign in front of the WEP hex password. The $ does not work with Open Internet Connect or the Airport menubar.
I can connect if I don't use any encryption on the wireless network, and also through the Ethernet cable.
I have an iBook which connects fine to the wireless network.
So why doesn't the iMac work the same way ?

The security difference between NO encryption and any form of WEP is about 2 minutes or less for somebody looking to get in... besides having WEP enabled makes you look like an easy target since you think it'll stop anything!
Either leave it off, making Hackers think at least 3 minutes about WHY, or use/setup WPA of one form or another!

I have an iPad with iOS 5.0.1 that is not able to connect to cisco wireless networks at work.

Hi, I have an iPad that is not able to connect to any of the Cisco wireless access points at work. The iPad is on the latest iOS 5.0.1. I did a reset on the iPad and erased all content and settings. The wireless network I'm trying to connect uses WPA2 Enterprise encryption. I'm able to connect to a Verizon mifi device so I know wireless is working. It seems like it's just not getting the certificate. I'm able to connect to our wireless network from other iPads just fine except for this one device. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to troubleshoot the issue. Thank you.
Julio

I suggest updating using iTunes on your computer (current version: 11.0.3).
Update iOS first, then apps.
