Unable to Access My "secure" home wireless network

Airport works fine when finding unsecure networks requiring no password to log on, such as in public areas. But it won't work thru my secured wireless network. I use a D Link wireless router. Air port "sees" the network, but it requires a log on to gain access for the first time. I'm positive I have the right password. I've spent a lot of time with the ISP here in Kuwait, and granted, MAC isn't their strong suit, but they keep pointng back to the problem being with the computer. I can plug into the router with a cable and everything is fine and I can access my neighbors unsecure network thru his router...thanks neighbor. Any suggestions?

I was having similar problems few things.
1. Check to make sure drivers are up to date for Dlink. I would double check your settings for your router.
2. This is more of a question. Do you have a lot of people that come over to your place and use your appartment? I was having problems with my Linksys Router and I decided to setup a Mac filter instead.
3. Hard reset the router.
4. Check D-links website see if the have any information regarding router problem.

  • I am new to IPod touch and really enjoying it.  BUT.  All of a sudden I am unable to connect to my home wireless network nor any hot spots.  Did not have any trouble in 1st month and yet something seems to have changed.  Any suggestions as to what ?

    I am new to IPod Touch and enjoying but all of a sudden (after about a month of connection) I am unable to connect to either my home wirless or hotspots outside of home.  It would appear that a setting has changed but have no idea how to determine.  Any suggestions ?

    NO I did not and thank you very much for the advice.  My problem was stated incorrectly in that while I am able to connect to the wireless from that point on I am unable to connect to the internet.  I will check the article referred to.

  • Cant access dashboards from home wireless network via my personal 10.1.3.4

    Hi,
    I installed 10.1.3.4 on my laptop at work - which worked fine. though when attempting dashboards via presentation layer at home the url cannot be displayed. I believe it is because i am using a static ip & at home on my wireless i get assigned any old ip. can anyone advise how to get around this?

    Yes, It has impact. You create groups in the Repository & Answers and assign the object level permissions.
    You Populate Group Variable during authentication via LDAP server. Once you login with X name you see the authorized groups in the my account.
    For dashboard A - For group Executive - User X - You have given full access.
    Now you have changed the Group name to AD_Executive. When You Login variable values would be
    User - X
    Group - Ad_Executive
    Dashboard A - No permissions.
    If you have a scenario of changing the group names then get Groups from database using Init block after authorization.

  • Strange - Home wireless network ok, no access Public networks

    Ok, I'm not getting this, and I've been around computers for some time.
    Got my B570 'round September last year. Worked great on home wireless network ( Brighthouse networks in Florida, with Ubee Wireless modem running Lightning or 40mb.)
    Had to move to new place offering a house offering of wifi, had a bear getting that up, but finally did.
    Here's the q, and I've seen this on an HP laptop running Vista, but that one died and I got this one.
    Go to Starbucks, Panera's, Dennys or just about any other public place, and I can see the routers and even connect, but can't get anywhere on the internet. I get either a limited or no internet, or identifying, but that's it. I know that their router is working because i can make the wifi connection on my phone and browse no problem, and I see other patrons with different computers logged in at the same time.
    McDonalds, I can get in, and soon as the network connection comes up, browser will pop up and allow me to accept McD's access rights page and I can connect. I know that Denny's has one too, but it doesnt pop up, and ( I know that this will sometimes happen too ) if I try to connect to a website, sometimes the local accept page will pop up, but usually not for me.
    I have Google Chrome as my primary web browser, but even if I try to bring up via IE, no go.
    I can connect to the internet via my droid phone usb wired or just wireless, but don't like that to be a regular solution.
    I've already tried to update the wireless driver ( Broadcomm ), but computer tells me that i'm up to date. Enabled then re enabled. Flush DNS didn't help either, ipconfig / release and renew didn't do it either. Using Comodo Internet Security, and turned it off, even exited out of program and that didn't help either.
    Today was an interesting day. went to Denny's thinking I'd get some work done, and couldn't get logged in. Went to Fedex Store to get some printing done, and logged in right away. Came home and can log into the communities public ( fee based ) network and can log right in. Looked in my bag and found a usb wifi dongle I had used for the HP when the wifi on it died out, but didn't try that yet. I'd rather not, I'd rather find out why the wifi on this laptop seems to be finiky with who's networks I'm using.
    Any ideas would be appreciated.

    hi Ronjie,
    The issue you're facing is a very strange issue. From what i gather ist begging to choose the network it wants to work with. I may need more time to look inot his to see if it is a harware issue. But i would like to try something though. You may want to uncheck the IPV6 in ur Wireless network properties. 
    To do that you will have to go to your "Network sharing centre" > Click on "Change adapter settings"  on the left hand panel > Highlight "Wireless network Connection" > Right Click "Wireless network Connection" and select on "Properties". Be sure to uncheck the "Internet protocol version 6 (TCP/IPV6)". Then click on and try to reconnect.
    Let me know how it goes..
    Regards

  • On an M425dn, I am unable to setup scan to network folder on a home wireless network

    On an M425dn MFP, I am unable to setup 'Scan to Network Folder' on a home wireless network. The network folder exists and has been set to share with full permissions for everyone. The OS is Windows 7. The printer IP address is 192.168.1.104. I have used this in a browser to access the setup tab called Scan. I have established a network folder and have attempted to test the setup folder multiple times. The tests end in one of two ways. The attempt spins endlessly which requires a cancel action or it ends with the following error: "Cannot connect to the network folder. Ensure the shared folder name is correct." The network folder does indeed exist.
    The computer name is Delta. The shared folder name is Images on my A: drive.
    So the network path entered is \\DELTA\Images. By the way, printing to this network printer is always a succesful operation. Any guidance to solving this dilemma will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Google may have "locked" IMAP and/or POP access to your account. To unlock it go here:
    https://accounts.google.com/b/0/DisplayUnlockCaptcha
    Then try setting the account up on the phone again.

  • Unable to join home wireless network

    One of my iPhones wont join my home wireless network.  Keeps saying password is incorrect.  Two other iPhones, 3 iPads, laptop all join no problem.  Tried resetting wireless settings, did not work.

    I'm having the same problem, but I have an iPhone 4 and mine won't connect to any network. It always says "unable to connect to network". I looked through all of the support forums but all I can find are people saying that its the firmware and that Apple has to fix it in an update or have to switch it out, and my warranty has expired. All of those forums are also from 2009. I don't want to pay for unlimited Internet, so I new this to be fixed. Please help if you at all possibly can.

  • When using mac on a home wireless network it causes all PC's to lose internet access

    When my Mac Books accesses the internet on our home wireless network it keeps all PC's from being able to acccess the internet.  Is there a setting on my Mac that keeps this from happening?

    Your ISP gave you an Address that looks like a random number. That goes only on the Internet-facing side of your Router. mine is something like 108.72.155.38. If you have your own Router, that number is NEVER the Manual IP Address of your Mac.
    Your Router has a "strictly local" number to which all Internet-bound  traffic is sent. Mine is 192.168.0.1 These are numbers at the bottom of a DHCP grouping., and almost always end in .1  Your Mac should never have this number as its OWN Number, but it may end up being listed as a Router Address. Typical numbers often start with 10. or 172 as well.
    Your Mac should have a number similar to, but not identical to the other computers on your local network. Setting it to pick up a number (from your Router) via DHCP says, "just get a number and use it." That is often the best way to proceed.

  • Home wireless network trouble

    I got a new wireless router, Netgear WPN824 from Newegg, a refurbished product. I set up a home wireless network using the online manual on the Netgear website. The router works well for the wired setup. But I could not connect to wireless.
    My wireless network shows up on the list of available wireless networks. I can connect to other wireless networks such as that of my neighbour's. I tried connecting to my network using both unsecured and secure WEP / WPA modes. Except once, I could never connect. That one time, as soon as I could connect and verify that I was indeed connected I thought the problem was resolved and so shutdown my system to see if i could connect again - alas, same trouble again. I use NetworkManager to connect, and here's the output for two networks - jaydoc which is my home network, and linksys, that of my neighbour's to which i can always connect.

    Is the wireless router i got a dud, being refurbished i took my chances and maybe i wasn't so lucky..! Or is it something wrong in my network settings..? I tried shutting down everything and then turning the modem, then the router and finally the PC without the ethernet cable connected. Still I am unable to connect.
    Any help is deeply appreciated. I am a total newbie in networking...!

    So if its still a DHCP problem, it seems to be affecting only the wireless part. How can I make wireless use the same DHCP servers as the wired..? Or is there something else wrong here..?

  • Home Wireless Network & Backup

    Hello-
    Can anyone suggest some helpful resources (e.g., websites) for configuring a home wireless network where different users (e.g., family members) can backup their files via the network instead of having to physically connect their computers to a separate, external drive? Thanks much.

    The new Apple Airport Extreme wireless router provides for this - connecting an external USB drive to the router for saving data and/or for backup purposes by anyone with access to the wireless network.

  • Home wireless network in China using Airport Express ?

    I am going to be living in China with my Macbook. I will be bringing my Airport Express with me.
    I would like to know whether it is appropriate to connect up my Airport Express to a Chinese cable modem to obtain wireless internet access at home.
    Or is it a very different system used in China for home wireless network.

    Many, but not all of the same wireless channels in the US are allowed in China. See this Wikipedia Document for some information.
    As to whether you will connect using ethernet or PPPoE, etc., that will depend on the provider that you choose.

  • Apple devices will no longer recognize home wireless network

    After returning from a week's vacation, I am having difficulty getting my Apple devices (iPads, iPhones, MacBook Pros, etc.) to connect to our home wireless network. I have tried resetting the router and modem numerous times, restarting the devices, resetting the IP address on the MacBook Pro to no avail. At time I do show a connection to the network, however, I cannot access internet, email, etc. This problem also seems to be affecting ALL of our Apple devices, including the ones we left at home. The PC laptop connects just fine, so it does not seem to be a router issue.  Any thoughts?

    Have you called the ISP's tech support line and asked for help?

  • Suddenly can't connect to home wireless network

    All of a sudden I can't connect to my home wireless network - always has worked perfectly.  Now I get a box asking for the password, and although I type it in correctly it keeps saying "incorrect password."  I thought I'd delete it and re-establish it, but it doesn't show up in the Managed Network settings.  Any ideas what is going on?

    On the problem computer, go to Control Panel > Printers and delete all instances of the printer.
    Next, print a Wireless Network Test from the front of the printer (Network menu).  Note the printer's IP address.
    1. Make sure the printer is turned on and connected to your network. Verify that you can access the printer's internal web page by browsing to its IP address before continuing.
    2. Click >> Start >> Control panel >> Printers.
    3. Click the Add a printer
    4. Select Local printer
    5. Select Create a new port and select Standard TCP/IP Port and click Next button.
    6. Under Device type, select TCP/IP Device. Under Hostname or IP address, enter the printer's IP address. Click Next.
    7. Select Hewlett-Packard from the list of manufacturers and select and select your printer model. Click Next.
    If your printer model was not listed, then select Have Disk, browse the HP CD that came with your printer and select the first file that starts with hp and ends with inf. Click Open then OK. Select your printer model. Click Next.
    8. If you are asked, use the currently installed driver.
    9. It will ask for the Printer name -- enter a new name or use the existing one. This will be the name of the printer that you select from other applications.
    10. You may be asked to share the printer. Choose NO.
    11. The Print Test Page box appears. Go ahead and print it.
    12. Click Finish.

  • MacBook Pro only can't find home wireless network

    Hey guys!
    I purchased a 15" retina MacBook Pro by July. It brought Mac OS X Lion with it: I had no problems.
    However, more than a month later I upgraded to Mountain Lion, and I started to have the same problem ALWAYS: sometimes I would be connected to my home wireless network, perfectly fine. However, after shutting down, sleeping, etc, whenever I would turn the Mac on again, it wouldn't find my home network wireless anymore, but it would find e.v.e.r.y and other network available. Also, my phone, iPad, and every other equipment, would find it and work perfectly. After several restarts and wake ups from sleeps, the Mac would eventually magically find it and stay connected for an unpredictable amount of times (sometimes it could find it continuously for some days after some sleeps, and sometimes it wouldn't be found again after some hours of it being found again (assuming the computer went to sleep)). But if I try any other of the available networks it connects with no issue!
    And I've been in this game constantly! I've tried (almost) all the Mountain Lion wifi-related posts in the Internet, but none seems to solve it.
    I have only found a few posts with my related issue, which I recall: the Mac won't find, ONLY, my home network, while any other equipment can, and it can magically find it occasionally, lasting its connection until the next sleep or shut down.
    Help would be really appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Juan

    Hum, good point, the problem may lay with the router compability. My sister, who has ML as original OS has been having the same problem of not finding only our home network, so it seems that the problem lies on Mountain Lion compatibility with the router. I just restarted the router several times and we both got internet at the same time. The question is, as always, how long will it last until it won't find it again.
    Now, focusing on the router.
    Here, in Portugal (as for the rest of the world I don't know), the Internet provider companeis offer their own modems. Not only that, as those modems are both: modems and routers ( http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/149/ofibrasjaestaabombar.jpg ).
    After writting the above, and re-reading what you said, you lighted me up the idea of entering the modem domain (you know, that url you put and have access to every definiton of the router?)
    Well, the password "type" was selected to "WPA and WPA2". What I did was selecting "WPA2" only. So far it seems that it is working. I'll do some restart tests etc etc and I'll let you know! (Maybe the problem may persist, but I'll only know days from know as it may seem, for know, that it is solved.)
    I'll let you know, and thanks for the help so far, Sig!

    Your home network must have a wireless router somewhere in the house. All of your wireless devices use the same router password to connect to the network. That's where the password is stored and used. Log into your wireless network router and look under the wireless menu section. You should find your password there. If you have other wireless devices connected to your network maybe one of those will display the password. If your router is also password protected and you can't remember that either then your only solution is to reset the router to factory defaults and start over to rebuild your network. With security becoming more and more important these days most passwords are encrypted and not displayed in the open on any devices, including routers. It's extremely important that you remember or have the password written down somewhere and locked away for just such an occasion. Good luck.

  • Issues joining my home wireless network

    Issues joining home wireless network
    My router is a Thomson 585 using encryption WPA-PSK when I try to connect with my ipod is unable to join the network; however the ipod will join when I disable the encryption on the router. So I try to set up my Ipod and it shows my router so in goes the 8 digit wireless pin but it will not connect. How do I set the encryption on my Ipod so it is the same as my router?
    The only way to see encryption is on other networks but that is not the my Thomson network or is it?
    Help

    Passwords are case sensitive so be careful. Also, if you are using WEP (poor choice BTW), you cannot use a password unless you follow some pretty stringent rules. The best alternative for WEP is the hex key generated by the router.
