  • Takes a long time to find wireless network

    So for the past few months my (Santa Rosa) MBP will take an extremely long time to find a wireless network. This happens both at home and other places where I have connected in the past and am wanting to use a remembered network. It can take as long as two and a half minutes to connect. If I click on the airport icon in the menu bar, then it says it's scanning for networks during this time.
    Usually if I create a new location then the problem will go away but then seems to come back. The problem also persists if I use a different user.
    I've repaired permissions, done a disk repair and even used Diskwarrior. I miss instantly finding wireless networks. It's a small inconvenience, granted but was hoping to get this fixed once and for all.
    Anyone have any suggestions of things to try? Thanks all.

    My computer also has been taking a long time to find a wireless network, up to several minutes. I often have to have it "scan" for networks several times before it finally picks it up. Is there a solution? This has been going on for many months. Other computers (PCs, iPhone) pick up the signals within a few seconds, but my Powerbook takes several minutes, even over 5 minutes sometimes.
    See how many networks are listed in Sys Prefs: Network: Advance. Drag the preferred to the top. Delete any you don't really need.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) 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. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

  • Sometimes cannot find wireless networks??

    i've looked around on a couple messege boards, but they didn't seem to be exactly the same problem i was having.
    essentially, after waking up from sleep or hibernate, i sometimes cannot find wireless networks.  the wireless switch will be on, Fn + F5 says my wireless is on, yet nothing can be found.  strangely, when i try to turn off wireless, whether it's through Fn +F5, or the hardware switch, the light below the monitor remains ON.  basically, i can't even turn it off.  when i do click the button to try and turn off wireless, it gives me the busy cursor and eventually the whole menu disappears.
    the way to fix this is by restarting.
    just today, however, i suffered this same problem, even though i wasn't coming back from sleep or hibernate - it just lost connection randomly and then couldn't find any networks.  attempts to turn off wireless failed.
    is there a solution?  is this actually the same problem that was remedied by changing a power setting?
    thanks in advance.

    Yeah I'm having this problem too, with my antique T41 running XP. It used to be rock solid it seemed to change when I installed XP SP3.
    I have tried reinstalling the Intel drivers but that hasn't helped. It seems when it restarts after hibernate (and occasionally at other times, as with the previous poster) it somehow doesn't lock on to the signal or it gets confused in the protocol or something. It doesn't always happen though - about one in three.  Rebooting cures it...until the next time.... 
     any assistance / ideas most welcome, thanks.
    PS I'm using Windows Zero Configuration not Access Connections. That was a change some years ago that made it work better so I'm inclined to stick with that unless someone can tell me why not....

  • JournE Air 801 Not Finding Wireless Networks

    My Air 801 was able to see my wireless networks when I first switched it on. I was having difficulty in getting WPA2 security to work so I reset the 801 to factory defaults using the reset hardware button on the device.
    Now I am unable to find any wireless networks.
    Any ideas how I can get my 801 to find wireless networks again?
    Thanks for your help/advice.

    Hi
    Are you sure the Wifi is enabled in the settings of Air 801?
    Usually the WLan icon should be visible in the left upper corner if the WLan has been enabled.
    I downloaded the user manual for Air 801 (Toshiba European page -> Support and download -> user manual). On the page 42 you can find all the details about networking.
    You can use the Wifi protected setup. This is the easiest way to connect to the network.
    - Select Wifi protected setup and press OK
    - press the wps button on your wlan router and then press ok to continue
    - press exit to return to the previous page.
    Then use the Wifi wizard to detect and to connect to WLan router in your area.
    - select wifi wizard
    - press up and down to select your preferred router
    - press OK to confirm your selection
    - enter the password for e secured router
    You can also use the advanced configuration
    For this check the user manual!

  • HT1695 Ipad will not find wireless networks that it used yesterday, but MacBook Pro still finds and uses these networks.

    Our ipad will not find wireless networks that it used yesterday.   Our Mac Book Pro finds them and uses them.   
    we have reset the cable modem and wireless router, turned off the ipad and turned it back on.   Turned wireless off and back on.
    but it just spins trying to find networks but finds none.
    What do do next?

    Settings for wireless network connections are actually stored in two separate places on your Mac, so in addition to the correct advice offered by Jolly Giant, you will also need to delete old network listings in KeyChain Access.
    Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > KeyChain Access
    Locate the name of the wireless network that you want to delete and click it to highlight it
    Click Delete on your keyboard
    It would be a good idea to go ahead and also delete the current connection as well in case it has become corrupted. This will clear out the old settings and when you next connect to the network and enter the password, the new settings will be preserved.

  • AC 6.01 Message: Find wireless Network is disabled. Contact your network administrator

    hi, i cant manage wireless networks with AC 6.01.  Profile "Create" is greyed out and I am not able to create new profiles, can't find new wireless network etc. Few weeks ago, everything was working fine. When I try  Fn+F5 and click "Find Wireless Netowork" I got message "Find wireless Network is disabled. Contact your network administrator". I am administrator on computer.
    What i found interesting is that if i stop the service "AcPrfMgrSvc" from services.msc, i can find networks but then i cant use AC profiles i.e. cant create profiles and cant connect to any saved profile. This problem gave me real headache. This might be a problem due to any windows update.
    I m using Windows 7 on Thinkpad E520. Please helppppp....

    I don't think this is a Windows update problem.  I encountered this same problem
    immediately after I allowed Lenovo to update my laptop a month or so ago.  (I have
    always refused to allow Lenovo to update my system since I didn't trust them -
    apparently with good reason - but I finally said OK.  (My Windows 7 OS has not been
    updated since Nov. 2012.)  Lenovo has been no help in fixing the problem they
    created (which has put Lenovo at the bottom of my list for future systems - see below.)
    I have not tried disabling "AcPrfMgrSvc", I am only commenting on not being able
    to Find Wireless Networks.  I have read posts/comments in various places saying
    to revert to a previous "version" of something (I don't remember what - AC?), but
    have found nothing that explicitly states how to do that - as if it should be obvious.
    Not helpful either.  Documenting that would be the least Lenovo itself could do.  (I
    did try reverting to a full system backup I had made the day before, but I found I could
    not do that without having a system disk that Lenovo said would cost $50 - which also
    means NONE of the backups I have done over the last year and a half have any
    value?)
    So I have pretty much stopped using my two recent Lenovo systems and gone back
    to my 9-year old Linux system.

    Hm, I can't remember how I did this but I think that I removed instalation from add/remove programs. Also find the folder where are the files, there you also you may find exe file which will remove all instalation. My is in C:\Program Files\ThinkPad\ConnectUtilities. KillAC.exe is file that you may need.
    After this, go to support and download pages and from there you should download and install newest version.
    Should solve the problem.

  • Photosmart b209a can't find wireless network.

    I've only had this printer for three days. The "Easy One Button" process to get it to find a network failed. It cannot find my wireless network.
    I'm using XP Professional on my laptop. McAfee Virus scanning and Firewall. (Not that it matters if the printer can't find the wireless network)
    I have a DSL D-link router with NO MAC filtering and yet when I print the Wireless Network Test Report it gives me this whole spiel on MAC address filtering and asks to add the MAC address of the printer to the router... but there's no offered solution if MAC filtering is turned off.
    I've changed my router security key from WEP to WPA-PSK.
    I've managed to get it to connect twice... and to print a test page on separate days. I have no idea what it is I do that gets it 'online' but it doesn't seem to last.
    I have spent several hours over the past three days (wasting entire days) trying to work out what the problem is. I have read forum posts; I have googled for solutions. The troubleshooting guide for the printer seems hopeless.
    The printer is on the same desk as the router with only a computer monitor between them.
    When I print the HP Network Configuration Page it states the status of the 802.11 Wireless is "Disconnected". The printer's wireless light is on, showing that the wireless radio is working on the printer.
    I bought HP because my last printer was HP and it was excellent (but not wireless). If I can't get it to go online, seriously, I'll take it back and exchange it for a different brand of printer. All I want is a printer I can print to wirelessly, is that so hard to ask? Yes, I'm getting really frustrated here. I live in a rural area and I don't have access to geek friends or a computer professional or anything like that and returning the printer requires a two hour drive so I have to be as self-sufficient as possible. Please, try not to use too many technical terms. I can understand some but not all and if anybody can help me, please be clear in their instructions (ie, don't just say 'go to setup blah blah blah' without saying which setup you're talking about.)
    Thanks for any help. It is appreciated.

    Yes, the desktop is connected to the router with an Ethernet cable.
    Yes the laptop is wireless.
    The printer is connected to the router via wireless (which I've already stated, it keeps losing the wireless network).
    If I don't have my printer connected to the desktop via cable, then I won't have any printing capability at all, because, as I just said, the printer keeps losing the wireless network! I need at least some way of printing when the printer can't find the network (even though the wireless network is working perfectly fine).
    So, desktop connected to router with cable.
    Laptop is wireless
    Printer is wireless for laptop use (but it keeps losing the network and therefore is totally useless in that respect)
    Printer is connected to desktop via cable to enable printing because of wireless continuing to lose connection to wireless network.
    In fact my printer hasn't been able to connect to the wireless network for 2 days now... even though I'm currently connected to it on my wireless laptop.
    Sometimes the printer finds the network, sometimes it doesn't and when it does, if I try to print from the laptop wirelessly, the printer loses the network.
    This really is poor product and the installation manual might as well be used for toilet paper for all its worth, same with the 'help' feature on the disk. I only chose HP because I was familiar with it, since my previous printer was HP and reliable (but not wireless). I'm seriously wishing I'd purchased a different brand.
    I'm not an IT tech, but I've managed to be able to connect modems and routers and other peripherals to my network without too much hassle at all... until now.
    I'm sorry if I sound angry but this is completely frustrating. I spent good money for a product that I am unable to use for the main purpose I bought it! I'm reduced to saving things to USB sticks and physically taking them to the desktop computer and having to print from there.

  • HP Envy 5643 Cannot find wireless networks

    Hi, 
    I purchased this printer a day ago and it connected successfully with my wifi network through the setup wizard. I'm not sure what has happened but it somehow lost the connection and is unable to find wifi networks. When using the setup wizard it searches and doesnt find anything (before it found my network as well as sorrounding networks). 
    I tried connecting it through a USB and configuring it that way but even then I get an error saying its unable to connect. 
    I'm using a Mac if that helps. 

    Hello @Pleaseworkty , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I see you're running into connectivity issues.  I'd like to help!
    What version of Mac are you using?
    - Mac OS X: How Do I Find Which Mac OS X Version Is on My Computer?
    I'd recommend performing a power reset on the printer.  Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
    I'd also suggest the following document;

  • Can't find wireless network

    I just got a new mac cube for my office and installed an airport card in it. My computer recognizes the card but does not see any wireless networks. even when i manually enter my network name and password it can't find it: it either say "there was an error joining the network" or "wrong password" (it's definitely the right password. do i need to configure the new airport card somehow? this is driving me nuts!

    Did you attach the antenna wire to the AirPort card when you installed it?

  • New iPhone 5 having trouble finding wireless networks

    New iPhone5 works on home network but is unable to join work network and can't find church network. iPad 2 and previous iphone4 worked fine on both networks.
    What should I do?

        Hi there sadlerb98!
    Being able to connect to Wireless Networks is definitely an important function and I'm regretful to learn your iPhone 5 is having difficulties doing so! Let's make sure we try all options to get you connected. I appreciate you trying the Network Reset option first. Please ensure your information is backed up and complete a hard reset on your phone: http://vz.to/1cfZDog
    Restore your information and test the wireless connections again. Please keep me posted on your results!

  • Unable to find wireless network on Photosmart C4780 on MacBook Pro running OS X 10.10.3

    I have been successfully using a Photosmart C4780 on my wireless network for a long time.  I had internet issues and the network name was changed.   Now I can't print wirelessly.  Tried reinstalling the software, but the program quits just before set-up.
    Help!!

    Hey there @physiocan!
    Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!
    I should be able to provide some suggestions that may get your Photosmart C4780 reconnected to your wireless network.  Due to the age of the printer there is no full feature software and driver developed for Mac 10.10.  Your printer requires the HP full feature software to setup the wireless through the USB cable.  Once the Wi-Fi is setup then the USB cable can be removed.  To reconfigure your printer to the new network name you will require a computer running the Windows operating system or a Mac with version 10.7 or lower.  
    Please post back and let me know!  You will only require another computer for the Wi-Fi setup.  Once the wireless is setup then you should be able to add it to your Mac 10.10 using the Apple Airprint drivers built into the Mac operating system.
    Thanks again for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Windows Can't Find Wireless Network upon Restart

    Hello,
    I am running Windows XP and have a wireless network set up via a Linksys BEFW11S4. Everytime I restart my computer, the windows wireless client cannot find my network.
    I've found that the work around is to unplug for 10 seconds, then plug back in-which usually then allows my laptop to find the network. (I've also used the EasyLink software which arrives at thsi same result).
    My question is what do I need to change in order to not have to continually be unplugging and replugging back in my routher.
    Thanks!

    Try few settings on the router ....
    Change the channel on the from 6 to 11 ....
    Under advance wireless settings ....
    Beacon Interval - 75....
    DTIM - 2....
    RTS & Fragmentation Threshold - 2306 ....
    Change the network name SSID ....Also change the wireless security key ....
    See if is shows connected after reboot ....
