TS1398 My 3g quit detecting wi-fi networks suddenly.

My 3gs quit detecting wi-fi networks suddenly. Where is a good place to have my iphone checked & possibly repaired?

It shouldn't switch from an available wi-fi network while actively using the iPhone, but unless the iPhone remains connected to a power source while connected to an available wi-fi network, the wi-fi network will be disconnected a short time after no longer actively using the iPhone or when in standby or sleep mode. This is to conserve battery.

TS1398 I have just purchased an iPad mini and it will not join my wifi. It detects my wifi network but will not join. I have a Mac, 2 iPhones and an iPad 4 and all work perfectly. The new iPad mini just won't behave. Any ideas?

I have purchased an iPad mini and it will not join my wifi network. 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.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
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)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

My iphone 4s is no longer detecting wifi since the ISO8 updates came out. I've restarted, rest the networks, reset the phone back to factory settings, and even tried the freezer trick. It is STILL not detecting ANY wifi networks. HELP!!!

My iphone 4s is no longer detecting wifi since the IOS8 updates came out. I've restarted, rest the networks, reset the phone back to factory settings, and even tried the freezer trick. It is STILL not detecting ANY wifi networks. HELP!!! I cannot afford to go over my data and I use wifi at home and work... I believe the updates have caused the issue, because it was working fine before the second update released (I hadn't put the first one one until I noticed it had stopped working, and by then the second IOS8 version had came out). They need to do a third update to fix this issue.

If it's grayed out:
Reset Network Settings - if that doesn't fix it, then Backup and Restore AS A NEW DEVICE.
If it's still grayed out, unfortunately that means your Wi-Fi antenna quit, and it needs service.

Mac Mini Airport Extreme - Cannot detect any wireless networks

Hello,
Last week my Mac Mini (Power PC)'s hard disk crashed. So I did a DIY replacement. I managed to re-install all the software, and installed all the latest updates.
However, for some reason, the Airport Extreme is not detecting any wireless network after the re-install.
My own wireless network router is a third-party, which has been working well for the last 2 years. My Window PC and laptop still connects to it fine.
I can see the Airport icon but it doesn't how any detected networks (and there are quite a few in my neighbourhood). I did Apple Hardware Test and it shows the Airport card to be working ok.
Any help would be wonderful!
Regards,
Leng
Mac Mini G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

It still may be possible that the antenna wire is not placed properly within the Mini. Here are an excerpt of the DIY instructions for installing the wireless antenna. Hope it helps...
- Make sure that the antenna cables are firmly seated in the mezzanine board.
- Pass the antenna cables through the gap at the rear of the internal frame.
- Carefully lower the internal frame down onto the motherboard. Make sure that the wires are routed to the right of the interconnect board.
- Snap the AirPort antenna onto the black plastic column next to the rear port panel.
- Tape the AirPort antenna wire to the edge of the DVD drive.

Ipad2 is no longer detecting ANY wifi networks.

Hi, my 9 month old ipad 2 no longer detects ANY wifi networks. Was always logged on to our own home router and in settings was always able to 'see' neighbours wifi - now nothing shows.Is this a hardware problem?

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 the screen blacks out or 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. 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."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

Can't detect my wireless network

Hi,
A few days a go I started having problems with my Wirless connection. My Macbook Pro can seem to find it anymore. It can be gone for a week, and then out of nowhere it pops up again and works for a day or two. My iPhone connects fine to the network. I might add that the airport card totaly stoped working for a week a while ago, but it also just started working by it's self.
I'm running Mac OS X 10.6.4 and I'm using an D-Link DIR-655 as router with Firmware ver. 1.21EU
I can see all my friends networks in the dorm (and connect to them), but I cant see mine. Rly strange..
anyone have any idea what it could be?

Hi, I too am having the same problem. The MBP won't detect only my network but detects all other networks in the neighborhood. And mobile phone connects to my network. This has happened earlier too, but just sorted itself out on its own.
Thanks

My iphone 4s won't detect any wifi networks.

Hi
My iPhone 4s won't detect any wireless networks. It was working fine until last night when the connection dropped int he middle of me watching a programme. At first I thought it was our router, but I reset that about 5 times, and all other devices are working fine on it. The phone won't detect any other networks either - if I ask to join a network it comes up with the message "could not scan for wireless networks". I have tried resetting the network settings as suggested on the support page, but it hasn't worked. Can anybody help? Thank you.

If no change after resetting network settings on the iPhone, try restoring the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup.
If no change after that, the iPhone has a hardware problem.

Wi-Fi function available - However unable to detect any Wireless Networks

Hi All,
Yet another thread about Wi-Fi issues with the iPhone.
--- Underlying problem I am experiencing. ---
iPhone Wi-Fi function is available. When I try connecting to Wireless Networks I receive a message detecting available network and it will not progress from there. I have waited as long as 30 minutes.
--- I have tried the following suggested fixes ---
Performed test to verify Wi-Fi availability by trying to connect two iPhones to my Home Wi-Fi network at once from the same location next to Wi-Fi Router. One successfully detected Wi-Fi networks in a matter of seconds. Mine did not.
1) Reset Network settings through General --> Reset Network Settings (Tried multiple times) = No change
2) Tried disabling Wi-Fi and turning on Airplane mode then powering off the iPhone. Then power back on and then turn off airplane mode and reactivate Wi-Fi = No change.
3) Tried upgrade to OS 3.1.3 = No change
4) Tried downgrade back to 3.1.2 = No change.
5) Tried restoring over 10 times = No change.
6) Also tried to manually set Wi-Fi settings --> getting error *"could not scan wireless networks".*
7) Power Cycling Wireless Router = No Change.
--- Other Fixes I have not had a chance to try ---
1) Reading other posts many are saying that they started experiencing similar issues after a OS update to 3.1.X.
*Solution - Downgrade OS to earlier versions.*
2) Others say it is a Heat problem.
*Solution - Put it in the freezer*
*Solution - Disabling e-mail Push functionality*
3) Wireless Antenna is faulty
*Solution - Buy spare and replace*
Any feedback on the fixes I have not attempted. i have to admit that I was a little reluctent to stick my iPhone in the freezer.
Any help would be fine.
P.S. I have spoke to Apple support and they suspect that it is a hardware issue and it will cost me AUS$268 to swap the existing phone out. (I am OOW - Out of Warranty)

Hey Beta990,
Yes tried full restore to OS 3.1.2 and back to 3.1.3 which did not make a difference. I have two desktops and two laptops connected to my Wi-Fi router. I even did a test with my friends iPhone 3G 8GB and tried connecting simultaneously next to mine and his detected my home Wi-Fi in like 3 seconds and I waited for over 30 minutes and gave up.
But thanks for replying though.
I am out of warranty which really ***** and it will cost me AUS$268 to have it replaced at an Apple store. It sound very much like a hardware fault but I'm just hoping it is a software fault like some people are suggesting online for I don't really want to spend an extra AUS$268. (Tight I know...)
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. I tried the fridge fix... nah didn't work for me.
PLEASE IF YOU KNOW OF ANYTHINGS ELSE TO TRY POST ME.

My iPad2 quit connecting to wireless network. Won't turn on, won't search for networks, no connection

A couple of days ago, my 1 month old iPad2 quit searching for wireless networks, won't recognize my home network, and the wi-fi connection won't stay on. I can switch it on, but it doesn't do anything (won't search for wifi) and as soon as I move away from that window, it switches back to "OFF". Anyone have a fix for that, or is it a problem that can only be resolved with returning the product for repair or replacement?

If no change after resetting network settings on your iPad and/or after restoring your iPad with iTunes as a new iPad or not from the iPad's backup, your iPad has a hardware problem.

Iphone 4s was unable to detect any wifi networks and was told to pay £159 to get the entire phone replaced, should i do it?

My iphone 4s does not detect any wifi networks but the apple genius said that the wifi signal seems to be fine but it just is not detecting any wifi networks and because I cannot find my receipt for the phone and the apple store only dates back purchases up to 18months ago, is there a way i can obtain my receipt?

If your warranty is up, the replaced iPhone will have a 90 day warranty.
Out-of-Warranty Service
If you own an iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will service your iPhone for the Out-of-Warranty Service Fee listed below.
Please note Out-of-Warranty Repair Service fees from your carrier may be different than those listed below.
iPhone Model
Out-of-Warranty Service
iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c,
iPhone 5
£ 216.44
iPhone 4s
£ 166.44
iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS,
iPhone 3G
£ 126.44
The Out-of-Warranty Service Fee includes a £ 7.44 shipping fee, which applies only if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in British pound sterling and include VAT. iPhone Out-of-Warranty Service may also be available from your wireless carrier. Pricing may vary.
When setting up out-of-warranty service, Apple will request credit card pre-authorisation for the maximum service fee listed above. This amount will be deducted from your credit limit. The final service fee we charge will be determined during testing and may be less than the service fee listed above.
Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPhone that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service.
Apple reserves the right to determine whether or not your iPhone is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. iPhones that are repaired or replaced have a 90-day limited hardware warranty or assume the remainder of your standard warranty or AppleCare product coverage, whichever is longer. Please see Apple's Repair Terms And Conditions for further details.

Not detecting Wi-Fi networks

After upgrading to windows 10,Whenever i turn on my laptop and turn on wifi it doesn't detect any networks but the networks are available..
After sometime when i disable and enable the wifi device for 2 times it detects the wifi networks..
Sometimes i have to diagnose the wifi device to detect the networks..
But i have to do this everytime i turn on my laptop after it is turned off.
When i restart my laptop it detects quickly but when i shut it down and open it after some time,it doesn't detect any networks...
Why is this happening? What is the solution?
Please help.I need solution.
My Wi-Fi adapter model is Ralink RT3290 802.11bgn Wi-Fi Adapter
Waiting for a solution..
Thank you.

Hi ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues with help from the community!
I came across your post about the Notebook, and wanted to assist you! I have looked into your issue about your HP 15-r014tx Notebook and the Wireless connection signal dropping. I would change the Channel on the router. Routers are capable of communicating to your Notebook on several different channels and sometimes this helps. You could turn off IPV6 for the notebook. Some say this helps. Fix this problem Microsoft Fix it 50413. Here is a link to help as well. I hope something here helps. Please let me know how this goes. Thanks.
