Just had cellular data plan added to my iPad 2. How do I wep secure my wifi connection?

How can I secure my cellular data wifi network on my iPad 2? I want to ensure others are not drawing against my data plan.

You can set up a password to secure your WiFi connection from your router. A very smart thing to do given a recent news story about a guy in Florida who didn't secure his WiFi network and was raided by the polce, who later discovered his signal was being used by another dude for illegal purposes..
As to your 3G cellular data plan, I don't believe it turns your iPad into a WiFi hotspot that others can use.
I can be paranoid, so I tend to turn on airplane mode when I'm not using my iPad, and especially overnight when I'm asleep.

I am using iPad1. Running v4.3 and when connecting to wifi iPad keyboard does not work. Keyboard works for everything else including typing this question out. Why would it not work when typingin password for wifi connection?

Lots of WIFI needs a username and password to get access. I guess you're lucky and yours is set up unsecured.
Normal secured WiFi requires only a password to get access. The password is used to encrypt traffic between your device and the WiFi access point. If whatever you are using requires a username as well then it is not simply normal secured WiFi. It might be a subscription WiFi service like GOGO, ATT, etc., or a service with authentication, i.e., college campus, etc. To help you out we need to know what you are using and what connection dialog you are being presented with. You don't have exactly the same problem as the original poster. He is having a problem entering a password into the password dialog that iOS presents when one tries to connect to a normal secured WiFi network. Could you clarify exactly which WiFi service you are using.

WRT54GS Access Restriction for WiFi Connected Devices

I have the WRT54GS v4 running with the latest Firmware Version: v1.06.3 -- I am attempting to add Access Restrictions for a few MAC addresses and IP addresses (my kids iPod Touch and laptop).
I am simply wanting to deny total internet access from 9pm to 7am. I have gotten it to work but ONLY for computers that are actually plugged into the router (cat 5 internet cables). All the computers/devices that connect to the router via wifi do not seem to be restricted at all. I am thinking this is an issue with the router in that it ONLY seems to apply the Access Restriction rules to those devices that are actually directly connected by hardwire.
Has any one else noticed this issue for WiFi connected devices? Access Restrictions do not seem to apply to WiFi connected devices.
Please help -- I would hate to have to buy another router.

Are you sure you have enter the correct MAC address or IP address? Wired connections use different MAC and IP addresses then wireless connection...

Workplace won't give me the password for wifi connection

My place of employment refuse to give me the password for wifi connection. Is there anyway around this?

Nothing legal. They do add password access for a reason.

I'm having problem securing my wifi connection wit a Motorola SB6121

Hi All
my wifi connection has been secured few years ago. For some reasons, its now open and I don't have a clue of how to secure it. I have a Motorola SB6121 (if that can help) any tips or advices will be much appreciated.
Thank you

Lots of people are having the same problem, you're not the only one, belieeeeve me.
Just Googling the problem gets you tons of people complaining about the same thing, SOMETHING is up with Lion what wasn't happening with Snow Leopard. i just bought a new Imac and it CAME with Lion, so i started experiencing this internet dropout immediately.
It's been going on for the most of a year it looks like (at least by the dates from the threads i've been reading)
So your best bet is to fiddle with the System Preferences and read what other people have used to make theirs work. i'm doing that myself right now. I already posted a similar thread last night trying to figure out why my connection kept on dropping, i got a reply which linked me to a site. i followed the instructions there, so far so good, but i'm just being cautiously optimistic.
i'm gonna call Apple today and see if they've found anything, though seeing as this is a problem right out of the box there may not be an immediate solution. Good luck hunting for a solution :3

Parameters n95 for wifi connection?

hi ,please anyone had a kind heart to solve my problem, got a problem with the wifi connection, and i tried to many times, got always no gateway!! if anyone can help me pls!! i want a good suggestion for the parameters thanks in advance

Hi,
settings of WiFi are automatic. Device is searching for WLan and there are to possibilities;
1)wlan without authorisation code - this means, you don't need to know any access code, if signal is strong enough, device will connect with net and you can browsing.
2)wlan which needs authorisation code - connection is possible after giving a security code. If you don't know such a code, you can not go in.
Sometimes even if access is public, signal can too weak or too many ppl are using it in this same time for effective connection.
You should try to find wifi in some shopping center with cafe, restaurant, where are many open wifis, if you couldn't connect there, it would mean, that there is something wrong with your wifi module.
Good luck

Are you connected to wi-fi?
If not, then connect.

TS2756 does it matter if you have att iphone hot spot but verizon ipad for wifi connection

does it matter if you have att iphone hotspot but verizon ipad for wifi connection

If you are wanting to use the Verizon iPad as the hotspot you will need a Verizon plan.
If you are going to connect your Verizon iPad to your iPhone AT&T hotspot via WiFi it makes no difference at all.

How can i remove un/pw for wifi when teachers use their own logins for wifi connection.

I work at a public school district and each of our teachers have ipads. They user their usernames and passwords to connect to our networks wifi. I am needing to remove the username and password of last years teachers so the new teacher can sign in with theirs. I tried the suggestion of: Settings, General, Reset and Reset all Networks but when I go back i to sign into the wifi connection it is still automatically connecting to the previous users.

Have you talked with your networking it specialist? Perhaps the router is keying off the MAC address.

Airport Extreme username AND password for wifi connection...

How can I connect to a wireless network that requires both a password AND username with an Airport Extreme?
Some wifi areas in the UK such as BT Openzone homehubs require both a username and password to connect to the network, not just picking a network and add a password.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Thanks, this solved my problem. Network kept demanding username; I guess it's different from the computer ID I use. Whatever, it wasn't easy to find the network listed, but by trial and error, I found it, highlighted it, and pressed delete key. Now the network only asks for password, which I knew, and I'm on. Great advice. But why computer was configured to do that in the first place is why I prefer PC to my wife's inscrutable macbook pro.

Help needed for WiFi connection problem

Hello
My wife's iPad2 with current iOS 8.3 sometimes will not connect to Wi-Fi - any ideas on how to correct the problem?
It's inconsistent!
Thanks for any thoughts about this.

If you want to do this in sql you've to use dynamic sql to select only columns having the data.
And you can always use end user tools like SSRS to display only columns having values by using expression for visibility property.
Please Mark This As Answer if it helps to solve the issue Visakh ---------------------------- http://visakhm.blogspot.com/ https://www.facebook.com/VmBlogs

Can you please help me on how can I achieve this using SSRS.
Thanks.
Hi Mutali,
Personally, I don't recommend using SSRS.
If you want to design a SSRS report,you should retireve all columns and specify column visibility for each column with following expression.
=IIF(Fields!SomeFieldValue.Value > 0, True, False) (Note:Supposing the data type of the field is INT).
You can refer to the solution as
Jingyang Li post above.

I changed my password for wifi connection and now my wifi won't connect.

I have an Osprey mini. Last night I needed to connect a new device to the wifi but couldn't find the card with the network password, so I got to my account online and changed the password. But when I try to connect, it says the password is incorrect.

I am not sure that you changed the correct password, online credintials usually are seperate/different from wifi ones. Please check the quidelines on http://ee.co.uk/help/phones-and-device/ee/EE-Osprey-2-mini to see how to solutions. I hope this helps.

Security for bridge connectivity

I need pointers on how to implement proper secure bridge (point to multipoint or point-to-point) Can I use radius/tacacs to authenticate non-root bridges using their mac-address ?

i would suggest that you use any RADIUS server like ACS to secure your Wireless bridged network. For information on how to configure the RADIUS server read http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/wireless/ps4570/products_configuration_example09186a00801bd035.shtml
