Not able to connect to wi-fi networks
Two months ago I bought an iPad mini, I brought it home and the wi-fi worked juts fine, until last week. I went on vacation and the first day at the hotel the wi-fi worked, the next day out of the blue the wi-fi was not working, my computer was and my iphone was too. My ipad didn't work for the rest of the week, which was highly annoying. I got home yesterday and my iPad is still not working with my wi-fi, when it used to worked just fine. what should I do????
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

Not able to connect to wifi wpa2 networks in lenovo vibe x2. It displayed saved.but not connecting. It connects to open and WEP wifi networks. Please help
Are you trying to connect to a 2.4GHz or a 5GHz network?
What encryption is your router set to use : AES,TKIP/AES,..?
Have you tried to unplug the router from the power source for 2-3 minutes->Plug it back in-> Wait until it establishes an Internet connection-> Try to recreate the phone connection.

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.
JulioI suggest updating using iTunes on your computer (current version: 11.0.3).
Update iOS first, then apps. -
My iPhone 3G is not able to connect to any wifi network
my iPhone 3G is not able to connect to any wifi network
Hi- Yes I tried manually adding the network (even deactivated password requirements on my home network but still doesn't work.)
I was reading another thread that has similar headline - seems the issue is with the upgrade to software iOS4 on a 3G. Folks have been able in some cases to get replacement phones. Seems issue is isolated to XP version. I have a MAC at home, so I will try to restore (yet again) on that computer and see if I can use it, otherwise I guess I'll go plead my case at the Genius Bar
Thanks on the responses. See "Wifi not working after updating to OS4 on iphone 3g" for more specifics. -
Erratically not able to connect to one particular network
This problem suddenly started at the office I work at with on their wireless network. I have made no changes to anything system-wise. Yesterday it began with alternating between picking up the network, with full signal but no actual connection, or having to manually connect w/password and getting "server timeout" or "connection failure" problem. There are no firewalls or proxies that anyone here knows of, and again, the problem just suddenly started happening out of nowhere.
This morning booted up and picked it was fine again for 10 minutes, then same problem again, it cut out. Tried various superficial things(turning Airport on/off, manually trying to connect) then rebooted and now it is connecting again. Who knows for how long.
I had a similar problem with Airport (I am assuming for now the problem is Aiport) on a previous MBPro, randomly not "working," and now the same, but only with certain networks.
I haven't the foggiest idea how to troublehoot this, and there isn't really an IT person here (outside consultant-$, and all Windows people anyway). I assume taking it to the Apple Store would not be useful b/c the problem is with this one network (it seems) here, not there.This problem suddenly started at the office I work at with on their wireless network.

I am able to connect to my wifi network but am not able to connect to other computers on my network
I am able to connect to my wifi network but am not able to connect to other computers on my network. I have installed windows 7 on parallels desktop, from windows i am able to access my network computers. But from Mac i can only access internet but not network computers Please help
Ok, well if you're sure that there are shared folders on your PC's, then try this:
Click somewhere on desktop, so you're in finder > Go > Connect to Server (shortcut to all of this is Command + K) then type in: smb://ipaddresshere
eg:
smb://192.168.1.7
Then either connect as guest, or login with the PC's (not your mac's) username & password. -

my mini is connected to the wifi network, but is not able to connect to the working internet... can anybody help, please?
192 is local address within your network.
Unless the adddress is of a server that can reolve URL names to ip addresses you wont be able to load an external web page.
You can check what it should be by checking your router status page.
Or if you have an iOS device check under settings, W-Fi, select the network your attched to, then see what is next to DNS.

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.

Satellite L650-11R - not able to connect to public networks
Hello there.
Although I am very pleased with my laptop, I have one problem. I am not able to connect to public networks using ethernet cable at some location (not everywhere) Users with different laptops have no problem connecting to the same networks that I cannot, so I'm guessing the problem is my laptop.
I always get "unidentified network" error. I tried replacing the cable but the problem still remains.
Any suggestions?Hi everybody, I have the same problem which happened with united & for the same product Satellite L650-1HR & also using default Toshiba OS, Windows 7 home premium.
from my home I can't connect to internet & always get "unidentified network" error also I tried replacing the cable but the problem still remains. only at my home & the same cable working properly with any other Laptop without any problem, outside home internet working properly without any problem.
I tried all ways, turned off firewall & the DHCP is already enabled, but I'm getting message telling that " the local aria connection does not have a veiled IP configuration"
So what do you think? -
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) -

Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it! It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

Try this first - 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 works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.
