Unable to connect to unsecured wifi

My iPhone was unable to connect to my workplace unsecured wifi. The IP address, as well as the other details are as follows:
IP Adress : 10.182.203.17
Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.192
Default Gateway : 10.182.203.1
Preferred DNS Server : 161.142.201.17
Alternate DNS Server : 161.142.2.17
I faced no problem in connecting to the network using my laptop or other mobile devices. Please advise for the correct setting as this is the only mean of communication on my workplace. Thank you.

Is your employer doing MAC address filtering? A completely unsecured wireless network in a place of business just seems stupid. MAC address filtering would only allow specific network adapters to connect (for example, those in company owned/approved devices) and would not be apparent to anyone attempting to connect casually.
If so, you'll have to ask them to add the MAC address for your phone to the permitted devices list.

Does the iPad connect to other networks?
Does the iPod see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iPod 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 the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

I tried all solution but still i am unable to connect to my wifi. It started yesterday when my ipad cant connect to wifi.

It's hard to provide help when your question starts out with, "I tried all solutions" however here is some troubleshooting advice.
If you are having WiFi problems it is necessary to isolate whether the problem is with your network or your iPad. Note: Do NOT consider your network to be blameless if some other devices can connect to it.
First, test your iPad on some other WiFi networks: a friends, Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, etc.
If it works well there then the problem is probably with your network. Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds. If that does not help check for a firmware update for your router. If none exists which corrects the problem consider replacing the router.
If your iPad does not function well on other networks it possibly has a hardware problem. You could try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings to see if that corrects the problem. If not, contact Apple Support or visit an Apple store for evaluation. They can provide a replacement if your iPad is bad.
If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router and how you have it configured.

Unable to connect to secure Wifi, password input was correct

I was unable to connect to secure Wifi, i ensured that i entered the correct password, i tried to reset my network setting and reconnect to secure Wifi but still unable to connect. However i can successfully connect to public wifi.

Hi Charlesjoseph - I struggled for days and tried all the solutions mentioned in various forums before I realised that the password (the WEP key number) is case sensitive. Once I tried it all in capitals it connected no problem. Doh!!

HT204400 Apple TV unable to connect to the WiFi Router solution.

Having found my new Apple TV unable to connect to my WiFi Router I discovered a technique which may be useful to others. Use your mobile phone as a mobile hotspot instead. I hope this helps other people with a similar connectivity issue.

Hi, i do have a similar situation. Everytime I try to synchronise itunes with my ATV (also version 2.3), it synchronise between 4 and 10 songs and then automatically disconnect the wireless connection on my computer (my ibook and other notebook stays connected at the same time). regards, Erik

Suddenly my ipad is unable to connect to our wifi. It buffers all the time?
All other devices are working normally. Is this a fault wityh my ipad or have I inadvertantly altered some setting?

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)

Unable to connect Z10 to WIFI 2WIRE MODEM 2710HGV White color modem

Hi, I bought Z10 on 30th March 2013 with great enthusiasm. That enthusiasm didn't last as I was unable to connect to the WIFI with the   WIFI 2WIRE MODEM 2710HGV. I took the help of my service provider but couldn't solve the problem. Yesterday I went to the service provider STARHUB and they were able to connect to the internet via their server. Then I went to the BLACKBERRY expert center at the CATHAY, there also they were able to connect to their server. I have done the basic things like inputting the correct password etc. I even tried setting the home network ID on my z10 but that didn't help. Where can I go wrong?. It
Please help to resolve this problem . Thanks.

TS1398 Unable to connect to home wifi

I'm unable to connect to home wifi with iphone. My computer is able to connect as usual.

Buried deep in that link is a suggestion to turn the router off and on again to reboot it. This should be the FIRST thing you try, not the last. It will usually resolve the problem.

Hi, I was working at home with my iPad, everything was going well. It went out battery and after this I am unable to connect to the wifi at home. Before getting out battery no problem, and now it sees the router signal but it is unable to connect to it.

IPod Touch - 4th Gen - iOS 6 - Unable to Connect to Qwest WiFi

I'm not totally certain this is the place or section to send in a complaint, but in my frustrated rush I will post here regardless.
I have never had any problems connecting to my modem. Until just yesterday.
I left to to go work, and came home to find that my iPod was not receiving a connection from my modem any longer.
I tried connecting my WiFi again only to get the message, "Unable to connect to this network".
I then restarted my modem, left it off for about an hour and then powered it back on. No change.
I've restarted my iPod, Reset Network settings, turned WiFi on and off and it still sends me the same message.
My roomate also has the same problem with his iPod.
I would love input, help, and suggestion from anyone who has either had this problem or knows exactly how to fix it.
Again, this problem DID NOT occur until yesterday afternoon at around 3pm (PST)
Thanks in advance for any helpful advice that will be given.

this would be the correct place
https://discussions.apple.com/community/ipod/ipod_touch
apart from that I would make it forget the wifi network and then readd it
if that did not help I would update the firmware of the wifi router

I am unable to connect to my WIFI.It keeps asking for a password and when i enter the password it says that is unable to connect or i have entered an incorrect password

I am not able to connect to my Wifi. It keeps asking for a password and when i enter the password it either says Unable To Connect or Incorrect Password.
This occurred only after installing a new Wifi router from Qtel (service provider). any assisyance is greatly appreciated.

You should call Qtel technical support and ask for help.
Where did you get the password that you are trying? What does it look like? (Length, type of characters)
Do you know what type of security is being used? WEP, WPA, WPA2

Unable to connect to my wifi from Time capsule

Hello am trying to conect mi iphone 4s to my wifi account from time capsule, my macbook connect perfectly also my ipad, but my iphone aways copme with teh unable to connect, i did the reset network, and doesnt work

Put the TC in bridge before you plug it in.. ie do the setup in isolation to the rest of the network..
I would also start a new wireless name on the TC so it is different to the cable router..
If you want to be exacting also set wireless channels so the cable router is set to say channel 1 and the TC set to 11 for 2.4ghz. Then plug it in.. you will have no trouble as the TC will get an ip address as part of the existing networking.. then extend the wireless using the extreme.

Mysteriously unable to connect to unprotected wifi network

I recently moved into a new apartment with a wifi network already in place, which I'm currently having trouble connecting to using my 2009 MacBook Pro 15" (OS X 10.6.8).
Everything worked fine for about a week and a half, but last weekend the connection gave out and I haven't been able to reconnect since. However, what's really baffling to me is that I can still connect with my phone, and my roommate can still connect with his phone and laptop as always. What's more, I've tried 3 or 4 other wireless networks at friends' apartments or at work and have been able to connect to all of them just fine.
The inconvenient part is that the network is shared with our upstairs neighbors, so I haven't really been able to troubleshoot the modem much other than asking them to restart it once, but I did take my laptop up into their apartment and still was unable to connect to the router, even while standing right over the modem.
My airport card is able to detect the network just fine (it shows as 3-4/5 bars), but when I try to connect it just times out. I should also mention that it's an open network, so there's no way it could be a password related issue.
So to summarize, this problem only affects my device, and only when I try to connect to my home network. Any Ideas?

Try the following:
Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
Open Network
Click on AirPort
Click Advanced at the lower right
Locate the name of the open network and click on it it highlight it, then click the - (minus) button at the bottom of the list to delete it
Do the same for any other networks that you no longer need
Click OK, then click Apply
Close the window
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilitites > KeyChain Access
Click on the Kind filter at the top of the area on the right of the window
Look for any listing with the name of the open wireless network
If you find it, click on it to highlight it, then click Delete on your Mac
Close the KeyChain Access windows
Restart your Mac
Try to log on on
What happens?
