Why can't I connect to home wi-fi?

I have tried everything!!! I have to Iphone 4 and one Ipod touch 4th generation and I cannot stay connected to our home wireless.  My laptop will connect and so will my tv but the phones and ipod only connect periodically.  This just started so I'm not sure why.  Any help will be appreciated.  Also I can connect anywhere else but home.  I checked my router, but like I said before I can connect my laptop and any other wireless device but not my apple products

Try:
- 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
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- See if there is a firmware update for your router.
- 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.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    Also try this - Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

  • Why can't i connect my ipad to home wireless?

    why can't i connect my ipad to home wireless?

    Is your iPad seeing the Router SSID (Network Name) in the list of networks?  If so what happens when you try to select it? Are you asked for a password? If the network isn't secure then it won't ask you for a password and you should just connect.

    I have an original iPad 32 why can't I connect on my home wi-fi but can connect anywhere else? No problems at home connect with other iPads and MACs.

    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

    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.

    If any of the above solutions work, please post back what solved your problem. It will help others with the same problem.

  • HT1695 Why can't I connect to the Internet when I not at home

    Why can't I connect to the Internet when I'm not home

    If you do not have an iPad with 3G cellular service, you can only connect to the internet when you have access to Wifi.  Wifi is not available everywhere, but there are places that do offer free Wifi service, such as Starbucks, Panera Bread, the Airport, etc.  When you are at a location which offers free Wifi access, you have to join their network, which is usuall nothing more than touching a connect option that should automatically pop up, when you open Safari on your ipad. 

  • Why can't I connect to WiFi?

    Why can't I connect to WiFi when asked for a password, but I can connect to the same WiFi if no password is required?  When I type in the password, I get the following message, "There was an error joining the AirPort network "Verizon SCH-LC11 d8dd Secure".
    When using my PowerBook G3 Pismo, running 10.4.11, I have no problem connecting to any WiFi that does not require a password.
    But I get the same error message when a password is requested.  I have removed the password requirement from some of my WiFi options, and make the connections and internet functions correctly.

    Judging from what you wrote, because there is something wrong with the settings or the password or passphrase. Make sure all devices use the same type of encryption, and make sure you enter the correct password. WRT to this, read

    Bad idea.

  • Why can't I connect to server to confirm terms?

    Why can't I connect to server to confirm terms?

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.

  • Why can't I connect to a new wifi?

    Why can't I connect to a new wifi? When I click on the wifi account it takes me to the IP Address page not the password page.

    Contact Rhapsody to see if they have or plan to release an update for the app. Try uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.

  • Why can't I connect to the ITunes Store?Also can't download any CD's.For 3 weeks now and no tech support to help on phone?what is up???

    Why can't I connect to the ITunes Store?Even through I troubleshooted with the info I was e-mailed,created new password,
    made sure date,keychain was correct etc and still cannot open store .I have MacOSX 10.4.11 and it does not let me download
    the latest version of iTunes.I need to speak to someone on the phone as it has been over 3 weeks now and this issue is still
    not resolved. also cannot download any CD's. After reinstalling disc 1 as told by 1 800 MY APPLE (as I was unable to cut and paste
    on my Mac)I ended up having to bring the computer in to the Apple Store on 5th Ave in Manhattan as it also required Disc 2 .
    Unfortunately I did not back up my music library and was not told it would be fully erased due to reinstallation. My 6 year music
    library got completely wiped out.iTunes had a history of my purchases but I received an e-mail stating about 35 songs and
    videos I purchased cannot be retroactive due to modification(I don't know what this means)I greatly appreciate if someone would
    help me clarify this issue.
    Thank you.
