TA48312 ipad 2 wifi password problem

i have problem with my apple ipad 2 wifi password ...i use itunes latest and win xp 2 HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLP ME

I too have had this problem with both iPhone and iPad dropping my wifi network and now neither are able to join the network again. This has only occurred since the last iOs update. had problems with them dropping the network in the middle of something, but was usually able to reconnect after powerdown and reboot, now neither will reconnect.
Apple support says it's my router and modem, or my password is wrong. Nope, not those as my wii, desktop and roomie's laptop all connect just fine. The devices see the network, but are unable to join.
I am thinking this is a software/iOS issue.

IPad WiFi password problem fixed by switching to 128-bit encryption

Upon waking, my iPad would often prompt me to re-enter my WiFi password, or simply say that it wasn't connected to the internet.
I was using an old D-Link Router with 64-bit WEP encryption. After talking to a senior support tech, I switched the WEP to 128-bit and it's been smooth sailing ever since.
This is still a bug, because if you're in some random hotel, you can't change the router settings. But this workaround may help until a patch is released.

WRT110 WIFI password problem

Hi Everyone,
I've got a very strange problem. First, I indicated WPA under Wireless Security section and typed in my passphrase. However when connecting to my wireless network name my passphrase never worked. Second, I completely disabled security and tried to simply connect without any passphrase, but I was still being asked for a passphrase nonetheless. I checked and double-checked and saved settings making sure security was disabled, but I was still being asked for a passphrase when choosing my wireless network!
I could probably restore my WRT110 to factory settings, however I don't want to loose other configurations like certain open ports and IP addresses I opened up for firewall.
Is there a way for me to resolve my WiFI password problem without restoring to factory default? I just need to figure out how to make the WiFi passpharse work. Here's what I have there:
Security Mode: WPA Personal
Encryption: TKIP
Passphrase: 0sunspot0
Key Renewal: 3600 seconds
However, when I pick my wireless network and try to connect to it by typing in 0sunspot0, I get authentication failure!
Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks,
Victor.
Solved!

I have misplaced all relevant info. for my router. I am trying to connect to a mini ipad. What do I need?
Is the router up and running and you would only want to add a device wirelessly? If so, you may access the setup page as sabretooth has said. To check the wireless settings, you may check this link, http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=476326f36c294e579ba6691a8db5411e_3698.xml&pid=80&r...

IPad 2. Wifi password problems

Hi. Have iPad 2. And keeps forgetting wifi password eg when I go to work and then return I have to re enter the home wifi password. Any ideas?

No - just off line at work. It seems to occur when I go out of coverage of the home wifi and then back when it won't log on automatically. I have a BlackBerry which manages just fine to recognise the home wifi and log on. It works when unsecurred but obviously I don't want that. I am using WEP at home.
I seem to recall my iMac did this for a while then randomly stopped.

IPad WiFi Connection Problems - WiFi Symbol Appears With Full Bars but I Don't Get A Checkmark?

I was using the iPad one day and then all of a sudden it stopped connecting to the internet. The network at this hotel is very good and I've asked them about their router so it is not the router's problem.
I go to the Settings and tap on Wi-Fi then I tap on the hotel network. After a few seconds, it says the network name beside the Wi-Fi tab and it gives me the WiFi symbol showing 3 bars. But then I never get the checkmark or tick saying everything is connected. I try going online and it says the iPad is not connected to the internet. I've tried an iPhone and it connected and got a checkmark in a few seconds. I've talked to the front desk and he took out his phone and showed me that he could connect, he even opened a page without any problems at all.
I've been trying to find a solution for this for a long time. I've been searching Google over and over again. I turned Airplane Mode on for 1 minute, I've tried Resetting my Network settings, I've tried forgetting the network and reconnecting again, I've tried removing all restrictions from the iPad, I've rebooted the iPad A LOT, etc.
So this is my problem for people who don't want to read the whole message:
1. I can't connect to the internet with the iPad
2. It shows the WiFi symbol saying its connected but I never get the checkmark or tick.
3. It's not the router problem.
4. I've tried other networks and it doesn't work. It just keeps on showing that loading circle right beside the network name.
5. Do any of you know what this problem is? Or do you have a solution?
Thank you for reading this and have a great day

Since you are in a hotel, some of these are not applicable.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. 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.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
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
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Wifi password problem

I am staying in the same hotel suite from a few months ago, but the wife password for my room is different. My MacBook Air is unable to connect to the wife router because I don't know how to change the old password. Any ideas?

Try the following: click on the Wi-Fi icon in the menu bar, the Open Network Preferences, then Advanced, then on the name of the network, then the minus icon below. That will delete the network and you should then be able to join using the new password.

Wifi password problems

I'm having trouble accessing the option to enter wifi password at work. After I accidentally put in the wrong password for wifi, I receive message "unable to join the network..." How do I regain access to enter wifi password?

If you click on the i (info) icon for that wifi connection, you'll be able to "forget" that connection. After that, you can reselect it from available networks and enter the correct password.

Ipad wifi connection problem

When I first started my ipad a few weeks ago, I set up the wifi I have at home, no problem. But yesterday and today I have had intermittent problems with the wifi not working on my ipad. It gives me the message, no connection and then asks for my password. I have entered the password several times (I have confirmed that it is correct) but to no avail. It keeps telling me the password is incorrect!! My daughter's laptop and mine both work fine but not the ipad.

Restart the iPad and see if that works.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
If that doesn't work ....
Try resetting the network settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings and then enter the network information and try again.
Or ....
You can also try Settings>WiFi>Tap the blue arrow next to your network name and then tap - Forget this Network. Then find the network and enter the passord again.

Weird 7.0 (7.02) wifi password problem

i have this weird problem wih wifi in 7.0 and 7.02 - it happened on my iPhone 5 and its happening on my 5S
At work we have a wifi network with an 8 character password - if i type the password the join button stays grey - if i add a space it turns blue but of course its then not the right paassword
At hom i have a wifi network with a longer password and there are no problems
I sent feedback to Apple about this but im wondering if anyone else noticed the problem and has any idea on how to solve it - ive tried resetting network settings
Unfortunately i cant ask our systems folks to change the password to something longer just to accomadate me

I understand where you coming from. Getting people to change passwords to accomadate you and I respect that you don't want to be a bother like that.
But I just want to say, that there is absolutely no magical setting or anything that will help with your situation. Unfortunately it is either Apple (probably not though), your internet provider, or your company that has gone wrong.
If it is your company that is the one liable for you not being able to connect to your internet, well then, like you said "I can't ask the system folks to change the password to something longer just to accomadate me".
If it is Apple's fault, you've emailed them and they'll probably tell you like I am that you, nor they can do anything (as there is once again not a magical setting that will fix the issue).
If it's your provider, I don't think you would have the details to contact them or the details as to the questions they would ask you.
Sorry man, but you're in a (as I like to call it) a three-way-corner. You don't have the details to go one way, the other way doesn't know how to help you (or can't) and then the third way would only annoy your "system folks".
... But if you're the boss or the CEO of some company, tell them to do it.

Why did this happen? wifi password problem

I would be grateful if anyone could enlighten me.
Yesterday I spent some fruitless hours trying to set up my airport express to join my wifi network. (DGND3700 Simultaneous dual band 2.4GHz & 5GHz)
After a few failed attempts I tried establishing a connection thru a password free channel and succeeded.
Again after a few more failed attempts I searched this forum and read Henry B.'s advice.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/6611596#6611596
Most problems at this point are due to not correctly implementing the same wireless network security protocol and password on both the wireless router and the Airport Express. What method are you using (WEP or WPA)? If you have the option on your wireless router, select WPA with TKIP encryption.
I changed the security setting on the DGN from WPA2-PSK (AES) to WPA-PSK (TKIP) and it worked.
I wondering why it does’t work with WPA2-PSK (AES) and also why there is no mention of this easily found in the so called setup manual or elsewhere.
Thank you Henry B. for your advice.

The WPA wireless security equivalents for AirPort & other manufacturers routers are as follows:
WPA - Non-Apple: WPA-PSK (TKIP) = Apple: WPA/WPA2 Personal
WPA2 - Non-Appler: WPA-PSK (AES) = Apple: WPA2 Personal
In theory, when you first attempted to join the DGND's Wi-Fi network with the AirPort Express, it should have recognized the wireless security type as WPA2 Personal when it encountered your router's WPA2-PSK (AES) setting. However, it may also fall back to WPA/WPA2 Personal which (in theory) attempts to connect with AES first, then TKIP when that fails. Note: AES is a much stronger encryption key vs. TKIP.
It may just be possible that the AES implementation for each router is just off enough to make that setting incompatible.

TS1398 iPhone WiFi Password Problem

I have a wireless network that I connect with on my MacBook but not on my iPhone. When I try to login to the network I get an error message saying the password is incorrect. This is the same password that I am using on the MacBook which works fine. Anyone have any ideas?

Forget the network (in settings/WiFi). Reboot the phone by holding the HOME and SLEEP buttons until an Apple logo appears, then try again.
If that does not resolve the problem go to Settings/General/Reset - Reset Network Settings.
BTW, if it is a 40 bit WEP key it must be key 1 (although I hope no one uses WEP anymore, regardless of key length).

Ipad wifi password needs to be reentered

I have been using my ipad mini for a week now and each time the unit sleeps or leaves the home wifi area i need to reenter my wifi router password. This does not happen with my iphone 5 or any other wifi device in my house

Okay, you MUST be kidding. I think I'll just forgo wifi for a night!

Wifi password problem in lion

My Mac mini (2011– came with Lion pre-installed) is unable to connect to my home wifi network. I have the right password (double checked) every other device is able to access the wifi network (iphone, ipad, other macs) but not the mini. Tried changing the router password to something else but no luck. Every other device connects but the mini still gives me the wrong password error (shaking login window). Any ideas on how to solve this?
Thanks,

I understand what your say, but in this case I have typed, and re-typed the password very carefully. I Know the password by heart (it's may usual password). I also checked in the router settings page, and the password was the correct one. Still I changed the password on the router to a new one. Changed the login settings on the other devices (iphone, ipad, Macs, etc..) and all successfully joined the WiFi network. All but the Mac mini. Keep getting the password error. A WiFi with no password is a security risk that I can't take...

WiFi password problem (keychain problem?)

Hi
I have a iPod Touch 4th gen. Recently, to make a long story short,I forgot my passcode and after a few minutes on the internet I ended up deleting the +keychain db+ file on my ipod. Luckily I made a copy of the keychain file and it is on my desktop now. But now all my passwords (mail,itunes,wifi,etc.) are not on my ipod anymore, but I cannot access wifi, even though I put in the correct password. Could I put the old keychain file back onto my ipod to get my data back? How?.... Any other solutions?

the keychain.db (data base file) is a storing file and anyway how'd you delete it, it's in the system area for the ipod; it's like deleting a car suspension systemwhile the car is moving.
if you locate the file and put the old one back in, it should work otherwise you might need to hard reset,or if your luckey a resore will work.
hope i helped.
