Not able to connect to internet...Please Help!
I switched from PC to mac today and bought a Mac Book. I have been trying to connect to network and have had no success. It identifies my network and asks for my WEP password, which I retrieved from my internet company. I tried with every type of security and either get the message incompatible security (with security as WEP Password) or see administrator (with security as WPA Personal). What am I doing wrong??
Depending on the password, WEP may require some unusual ways of entering it, e.g. hex versus ASCII. Go to the Apple Support site, search for "wep password", and see if one of the articles helps.

The wi-fi button on my iPad 2 is not functioning. I have tried resetting the network, worked for 5 minutes. Am not able to connect to internet to reset to factory. What else can I do?
Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
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 drooping 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

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.
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

I think we need bit more information regarding this issue.
You've said machines are not able to connect to Internet and Domain. Two different things are you not able to log on to the domain with your domain user accounts.
Are the Domain Controllers are up and running or have you checked if your switchs are working properly.
Please update with the above then we can help further.
Thanks

Please Help - WRT54GS "not able to connect to internet"
I just purchased a WRT54GS Wireless Router, and I follow the instructions by putting the CD in first, and I follow the instruction on the CD, but every time I try and set it up a message comes up and says "The router is not able to connect to the internet." blah blah. And I've tried resetting the router, turning the DSL modem off and back on, restarting the computer, unplugging and plugging back in over and over, and I still can't get it to work. Any advice would help. Thanks.
1.Make sure you have good internet with your pc direct to the dsl modem
2. If so, connect the router to the DSL modem and tthen the pc to the router.
3.then open a web page and enter 192.168.1.1 no user name but the default password is "admin"
4.You may have to turn on PPoe on the basic set up page and it will also need your sign on and password. put those in.. leave the rest defaults. Save the settings and then try on home icon on your web browser to see if you can get to the internet.

Not able to connect to Internet (Safari pre-set websites, YouTube, i-Tunes)
I am not able to connect to the internet, even though it appears I'm getting wireless on the iTouch. Have read numerous threads, nothing I have done has worked (tying to match my iTouch wireless settings to my Windows laptop settings, restarting router multiple times, choosing other under networks and trying to reset up my router config, trying to connect to IP using http://192.168.1.1 and/or http://192.168.1.1).
So get message "Cannot Connect to iTunes store", "Cannot connect to YouTube", and "Safari can't open the page because it can't find the server".
On my wirless settings (note my router is a Netgear DG834GB and works fine on both Windows based laptops in our home):
- My home network is checked;
- Under DCHP, BootIP, and Static all fields BUT router, search domains, client ID are checked.
- HTTP proxy is currently set to Auto with URL blank.
Apologies, been trying to read through threads to find the answer that will get me going, but either haven't found it yet or things like installing firmware (where do I install it, on my laptop or itouch, etc?) I don't understand what exactly needs to be done to do that.disable wireless security on your router and see if you can connect

Not able to connect to internet in boot camp
First time using a mac computer so I decided to install vista on my macbook pro. But when I enter Vista I am not able to connect to the internet, I have looked through the leopard and vista discs trying to find the right files so I can use the internet. So any suggestions on how I can connect to the internet using vista?
After Vista installed, did you insert the Mac drivers CD (if you're running the beta Boot Camp) or the Installation DVD (if you're running Leopard)? Without the Apple-supplied drivers you probably won't have a lot of things working right.
