Other Devices Cannot Connect
I just set up my Linksys Internet, and I noticed that my other devices such as my laptop and xbox 360 cannot connect to the internet. THere is no wireless security such as WEP, but it still won't connect. The xbox360 troubleshooter says (DNS Failed). What do I Do?
Thanks
-Mike
logon to the router's web interface .. go to the "status" tab and check the internet ip add .. ensure that you have a valid internet ip add ...
change the MTU settings to 1365 and go to the "applications and gaming" tab..click on "port trigerring" subtab.. trigger ports 88 and 3074 ...
change the wireless settings , channel - 11 , beacon interval - 50 , Fragmentation and RTS threshold - 2304
check whether this makes any difference ..

helpDoes the iOS device connect to other networks?
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?

Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- 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

- Restore from backup. See:

- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Could it be this:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

Upgraded to Maverick. Now cannot connect to wifi. All my other devices will connect. Have rest wireless hot spot switch and cable modem. Other devices still connect but MacPro does not. MacPro wireless is self assigning an IP address blocking access. It will connect if I connect to my iPhone hot spot via wifi. Any ideas?
If you follow this video you'll see how to delete your WiFi AP from the OS, this will allow you to select it again which I feel will correct your problem.

I cannot connect to iTunes store but all other devices are connecting to wifi and working great in household???
It has been saying this message for weeks so I don't think it's that iTunes is down...thank you though! I have 3 iPads, I phone, and iPod that I cannot connect to iTunes on and am beyond frustrated -ready to return items at this point...
-
My imac has suddenly stopped connecting to the internet through my wifi network if I restart the machine it finds the network for a minute or 2 and then stops working and cant find any wifi networks, other devices are connecting with no problems. Any suggestions please
Try posting in the iMac forum. This is the iPod touch forum.

Every device (iphone4, iphone4s, ipad2) I try to hook up to iTunes gives me a message "this device cannot connect because the apple mobile device service is not setup" does anyone have ideas as to why it keeps popping up? It just started doing this.
I'd start with the following document with that one:

Wireless working, but devices cannot connect
Just recently, my FIOS wireless router started acting up. Regardless of what Wi-Fi enabled device I use (laptop, phone, etc.), sometimes the devices cannot connect to the internet wirelessly. When this happens, I would have to turn off and turn on the laptop's or phone's Wi-Fi and it will immediately work. This only happens on all my wireless devices because anything connected to the router via cable does not experience this issue. Anyone have a solution? Thanks.
Sound like you're possibly having a radio signal problem. Did you possibly just acquire a new wireless phone?
Try logging on to the router and select the wireless tab and change the channel your router is broadcasting on. -
Macbook loses wifi, prevents other devices from connecting too.
Hi guys
I have a strange problem whereby my macbook seems to lose its wifi connection, and prevent all other devices from connecting to wi fi either.
its very odd as the router still shows up in available networks with full signal, but I cannot connect to it and neither any other device, including ipads, mobile phones and various other windows laptops.
This can only be fixed by restarting the router, which is a pain as its tucked away upstairs!
I know its my macbook casuing the problem and not the router as the problem didn't exist until I came home from uni, and it hasn't happened at all over the last two weeks while my laptop was away getting a new battery. Today I got the macbook back and the problem has returned! More than a coincidence me thinks!
This can happen three or four times an evening and is very frustrating, especially for the rest of my family!
Once I have restarted the router the connection normally comes back, however sometimes I get an exclamation over the wifi logo in the menu bar, saying no internet connection.
My macbook is a aluminium 2ghz core 2 duo running OSX Lion with all the most recent updates, and the router is a BT homehub 2.0.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated!
Thanks in advance.I have had this problem after my (work provided) 2008 macbook was updated to mountain lion. I have tried all the suggested fixes with some success, resetting PRAM has occasionally sorted this out, deleting the wifi and then re-starting and restoring works, but is very tedious to do every time you need a connection!!
A further wifi problem caused by the update was the loss of access to passwords in keychain- checking the 'access by all applications' box in keychain preferences helped reconnection too.
The tip I wanted to pass on is this-
If you are having these problems, and resetting the wifi has sorted it out, turn off the wifi Every Time before you shut down the machine. This simple action seems to allow the mac to keep it's settings intact, and it can be turned on again without any problems the next time you boot the macine up.
The connection problems can't be hardware- this machine is as fast and stable as the new retina mackbookPro it sits beside- when it can see the signal...... -
My iPhone 5S is using 2.5GBs of storage for the camera roll. I deleted all but 190 photos and this did not change. My other devices cannot backup to iCloud due to the volume on my iPhone. Any ideas?
Try turning off the Camera Roll option in Settings>iCloud>Backup & Storage>Manage Storage>Your device. Then turn it back on again.
Cheers,

Hey everyone, I have been having this problem for about a day or two now. I have an iPhone 4, and have iOS 7.1.2. Basically, my iPhone will connect to my home WiFi sometimes, but it randomly loses connection and won't connect for hours upon hours. I have tried turning it on and off multiple times as well as resetting the network settings. I know that it is not my network's problem because a member of my family has an iPhone 5S, and it works fine with the WiFi, along with all of my other devices. This issue is getting very annoying as I don't like to use my cellular data at home since it is limited. Please help me!!
Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.
What happens when it fail to connect?
----- Does the iOS device see the network?

Always 2 devices cannot connect to the 2T TC
i just purchase a 2T TC yesterday. I was trying to connect to my device(2 iphones, 2 ipads, 2 Mac air, and 1 Mac pro), 2 mac air, mac pro , and 1 iphone works fine, and 2 ipads connot connet to the internet.
i tried to reset the TC, still have the same problem; however,this time 1 iphones and 1 ipad cannot connect to internet.
Everytime i rest the TC the last two device that i was trying to connect doesn't, but the first 4-5 works fine.
Can you help me with this
ThanksHi Aimeeeee .. I like the name.
How is the TC setup? Is it in router or bridge mode?
What is it plugged into? Is there enough DHCP addresses for all your devices?
The TC in router is fine but if you bridge it check that the main router is also set correctly.
Set wireless with fixed radio channels.. try 11, 6, 1.. in turn..
Use wireless names that are short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
Those two things often get iOS stuff working again. -

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)

My iPad (first generation iOS5.1.1.1) quit connecting to my home WiFi recently after years of being able to. All other devices in my home connect fine. I have taken every step I can find to try and remedy things including restoring my iPad to factory settings. Still nothing - when it tries to connect to my network it just spins. I took my iPad to work and it connected to the WiFi there just fine. Came back home, no good. After talking with my local Mac supplier they've suggested that maybe my router is the cause. I've unplugged it several times for lengths of up to an hour but that still isn't getting things working again. Any ideas?
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.

I've installed McAfee anti-virus software in my 1-mth old U330p. However, I'm getting annoyed by the frequent McAfee pop-up messages informing me that a few devices have been connected to my laptop.
