TS1398 My Ipod won't connect to my home wifi.
I just got a brand new 5th generation Ipod and it won't connect to my Wifi for some reason. All of my other devices connect just fine with the password that I provide etc. but this one refuses to. When I try to connect it let's me type in the password but doesnt let me hit 'join' at all. And when I go straight to Safari and enter my password (this is the only time I'm allowed to hit join) it says unable to connect. Is anyone else experiencing this?
Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

My ipod will not connect to my home wifi, it can see it and asks for a password but will not connect. I have tried it at another location and it will connect to other wifi connections. I have another ipod that is connecting just fine to my home wifi.

Two of our ipod touches won't connect to the home wifi. They have done before. All other apple devices connect fine. They can see the wifi devices, appear to try to connect (the circle whirls around) but connection doesn't complete. Ideas please?
I have 2 of them that only connected for a day and then reset network settings and they connected again for a day now resetting network settings does not fix it either. My iphone used to work with my home network but after upgrading to the latest OS which is the same versions as the ipods it no longer works either. Acts the same as the ipods. It would seem that the latest tweeks to the OS is the problem with wifi connectivity.

HT5569 After ios 7.0.6 update iPad won't connect to my home wifi.
I have just updated my iPad (retina display, one before the air) to iOS 7.0.6 and now it won't connect to my home wifi. I have never had a problem before. I pressed forget network and tried reconnecting. It asks for password but will not connect. Any help would be great.
Alas, this has not resolved the issue for me.
Oddly, my iPad mini (1st gen) CAN connect to the WPA2-Enterprise network at work and it connects at Starbucks (open wifi).
It fails (asks for password then "cannot join network") on my wpa2-personal-secured home network and on McDonald's open wifi network (nearest other place I could test. Honest.).
I've done the network settings reset, the machine hard reboot, forget networks, reset my router and time capsule repeatedly (obviously, can't reset McDonald's), to no avail.
I love shoddy work: nice update, Apple! -
Hey everyone, I have been having this problem for about a day or two now. I have an iPhone 4, and have iOS 7.1.2. Basically, my iPhone will connect to my home WiFi sometimes, but it randomly loses connection and won't connect for hours upon hours. I have tried turning it on and off multiple times as well as resetting the network settings. I know that it is not my network's problem because a member of my family has an iPhone 5S, and it works fine with the WiFi, along with all of my other devices. This issue is getting very annoying as I don't like to use my cellular data at home since it is limited. Please help me!!
Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.

My Ipod touch won't connect to my home wifi.
Its been a week since my ipod touch can't connect to my home wifi. When I open the wifi, it shows me other wifis around me but my own. I even try resetting network under the ipod setting. It connects to other wifi, such as my school's and starbucks. Once I go home it doesn't show or connect. My router is boardcasting the ssid. and its not blocking my ipod touch's mac address either. I tried everything! Resetting network and turning off my router and modem.
- Try resetting the iPod. Nothing is lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next try Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts
and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults./new iPod -
My iPad (first generation iOS5.1.1.1) quit connecting to my home WiFi recently after years of being able to. All other devices in my home connect fine. I have taken every step I can find to try and remedy things including restoring my iPad to factory settings. Still nothing - when it tries to connect to my network it just spins. I took my iPad to work and it connected to the WiFi there just fine. Came back home, no good. After talking with my local Mac supplier they've suggested that maybe my router is the cause. I've unplugged it several times for lengths of up to an hour but that still isn't getting things working again. 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 iPad won't connect to my home wifi.
I took my ipad out for the day and when I got home it won't connect to my home hub. Says it is in settings but then the status icon just keeps turning round and there is no internet.

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

My Iphone 5 all of a sudden won't connect to my home wifi.
About a week ago, my phone stopped connecting to my home wifi. Every time I try and connect to it, a message pops up that says unable to connect. I've tried restarting my phone, resetting my network settings, turning the data off, turning airplane mode on and nothing is working. My phone will connect to any other network with no problem. When I took it to Verizon they told me to make sure my software was up to date, which I did and it still will not connect. Any suggestions?
Your home wifi may possibly be having issues. Call the company that does your wifi and they should send someone out to service it.

TS1398 I need help getting connected to our home wifi.
I need help getting connected to our home wifi. I've reset network settings, iPhone, and router but the error "unable to join network" keeps coming up. I also double checked the password. Please help
Other possibilities:
Your router firmware is out of date. Check the manufacturer's website for an update
You have MAC (Media Access Control) filtering enabled on the router, that restricts access to "known" devices and the new iPhone is not on the table of known devices
Your router has a setting limiting the number of simultaneous allowed devices
Your routers SSID ("name") is still the default (e.g., LINKSYS, DLINK, NETGEAR, etc). Your phone has encountered other routers with the same name as you have traveled, and the phone is confused as to which router is the real one. If your router's name is still the default you should change it. -
Im having real problems connecting to my home wifi from my i phone 4s, it just keeps saying unable to join even though the password is correct,
I have tried resetting my network settings but to no avail,
yesterday I reset all settings then it actually worked, however today the problem started again so I repeated the reset but it still isn't working
This has only started happening since i upgraded software to ios6
Please helpHere is what I would do:
Shutdown all computers connected to the router.
Power off the router.
Power off the modem (cable or DSL).
Wait 30 seconds.
Power on the modem. Ensure all lights are lit and the modem is online.
Power on the router. Ensure it's communicating to the modem.
Turn on your Macbook Pro first (the one experiencing the issue. Check it's connection. If it's still having issues, removed the networks it can attach to, turn off WiFi; then turn WiFi back on and reconnect to your WiFi network.
Turn on other Macs in household. Check their connections.
Sometimes "rebooting" the modem and router fixes connectivity issues.
