What TC do you have? Model number direct from the base is a big help, it will be A1 followed by 3 numbers.. eg
A1409 Gen 4.. The new AC is A1470
How is it setup?
I need the whole network setup. what modem/router, how is the TC connected etc??
I also need to know what IP the ipod gets, so I can see what mode the TC or network router is working in.

after downloading 8.1.1 I have trouble connecting and keeping wifi connection on ipad 4

I also reset the network connection. Rebooted it, used forget network and started over, I did everything that Apple said and it still doesn't connect most of the time but my iphone 5c and my laptop works great on wifi.

Trouble connection to certain wifi APs

So I've been having trouble connecting to some wifi access points over the last half last year or so. The weird thing is that my notebook stopped connecting to one AP which works for other devices, used to work with the notebook and now it connects to some networks (like eduroam) but refuses to connect to others, like my access point at home. Other distributions and operating systems, like Kali Linux and Windows 8 connect fine to the same access points on the same notebook.
My hardware is a Thinkpad Edge E325 with this network controller
01:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter [10ec:8176] (rev 01)
The kernel is the latest stable 3.16.4 and wpa_supplicant is 2.2-2, but I think it's been happening since somewhere around linux 3.13.x.
The logs I could gather are useless to me. Here is NetworkManagers journal output:

This problem might actually solve itself, since I'll probably give this notebook away in a few weeks, but I'd still like to find the reason for this.

Well, that's quite a drastic solution so I've saved it for last (Recovery Mode).
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

How can i connect ipad mini wifi celluar to 2g internet plan, how can i connect ipad mini wifi celluar to 2g internet plan

How can i connect ipad mini wifi+celluar to 2g internet plan

Hello Sir!
After weeks of testing, i found the solution of my question. It´s quiet simply!!
1º iPhone (3G Internet acess) connected to Mac mini by USB or BlueTooth or WiFi.
2ª in Mac mini must be activated in "Preferencias", "Compartir", the option "Compartir Internet",
     "Compartir Conexión desde":   iPhone USB or Bluetooth PAN
     "Con otros Ordenadores vía": Ethernet
3º Ethernet cable must be connected from Mac mini to Time Capsule !!
4º In Time Capsule "Internet": connect by: DHCP
                             "Network": bridged
Nothing more!!! Sooooo simply!!
After this, Windows XP SP3 connect without problem over TC´s WiFi or Ethernet to the Internet!
Also other Devices like IPad, or other iPhone, etc.
Of course it can be a created a WiFi connection (PPP) between the iPhone and the Mac
and it´s working to.
But ALWAYS, by changing the connection mode, must be changed the Thethering mode.
In- and Out-Going!
Thank you for your help, no I made me a "small" TC expert...lol

Can't connect ipad to wifi after upgrading to ios6

can't connect ipad to wifi after upgrading to ios6

Additional things to try.
Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi. (This is probably not practical in your situation.)
On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.
If none of the above suggestions work, look at this link.

I cannot connect ipad to Wifi though my other PC is connecting to the same network. It is an IPad one and previously automatically connected to this network but has suddenly stopped even after rebooting the router etc still does not work? Any ideas from the smart people out there please?

Trouble connecting to specific WiFi network

Starting a few months ago, my iPad mini has been having trouble connecting to my home WiFi network. At first I figured it was my WiFi, but I've tried resetting iit, which did not correct the problem. Also, oddly nobody else had trouble connecting. My boyfriend's iPad and both of our iPhones have strong connection everywhere in the apartment. Obnoxiously, my iPad can connect to every other WiFi network in our building with strong connections, just not mine!
I have tried resetting network settings and did a full factory restore but I'm still experiencing the same issue. I can't decide whether it's an iPad issue or a WiFi issue. Nobody else has problems with the WiFi, and my iPad doesn't have problems with any other connection!
Here's what is actually happening: to connect to my network, I have to literally set the iPad right next to the router until it connects. Immediately after I walk away, it drops down to 1 bar and as long as I'm within that room, I can use my iPad. Once I leave the room, the connection is lost.
It's driving me INSANE. Please help with suggestions or similar experiences
ps. This has not been an issue caused by system upgrades as it has been going on for several months and has finally driven me crazy enough to get help, haha

You have a wifi signal; it's just very weak. That suggests two possible causes:
1. The iPad case. In some cases, a case may interfere with the wifi signal significantly. Remove the case, and test the wifi again.
2. The wifi antenna. In rare cases, the wifi antenna will become dislodged or torn; they're fragile strips of filament.
The iPad case is easy to fix. The antenna requires more skill, and urge you to use an experienced professional.

HT2497 Using Time Machine for home wifi just fine. Switched to cable modem from DSL. Now having trouble connecting laptops to wifi. ISP says it is not their fault. Mac books won't connect on their own.

Changed from DSL to cable modem. Now Mac book pro won't connect to wifi - Time Machine?
One Mac ok, other not. Help?

Thanks. We have been using an existing Time Machine for wifi. Cable modem replaced DSL router and was hooked up to Time Machine. What's odd is that 3 computers and iPad2 are connecting to home wifi just fine, using exact same network and password as before. My Mac book pro and an older iPad are not. IPhones are also connecting to home wifi just fine. I managed to get my Mac book pro hooked one time by copying ip address from a Mac that was working (entered manually) then turning that one off. That's not what I need.
The error message is "no ip address".

Unable to connect Ipad to wifi.

I am trying to connect the Ipad to a new network other than the one I usually use.password/username is correct,I see the network sign going round & round trying to connect but it doesnt seem to connect.Even tried to reset network.Any thing else I need to do?

Can I connect Ipad 2 WiFi to Internet through 3G Android Bluetooth Phone?

Can I connect my IPad 2 Wifi to internet through 3G Android Phone's Bluetooth?

Not Bluetooth. You can connect if the phone has tethering/internet sharing. The phone has to put out an SSID for other devices to connect to. Like a wifi signal.

I am having trouble connecting to my wifi-

I am having trouble connecting to my locked WIFI linksys account via my personal PC. I tried the authentication code via linksys with no luck. Any suggestions??
Thanks!

If you have ever connected to it go to Settings>Wi-Fi>press on the name of the network and press Forget This Network. Then reset your phone (hold on/off and home buttons together for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple logo, release and wait for it to restart) and go back and try to joing your wifi again.
