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.

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.

Can't connect to the internet in my home yet other devices can. I tried it in other Wifi places and it connects without a problem. My home Wifi is with Att uverse

Can't connect to the internet in my home yet other devices can. I tried it in other wifi places and it connects without a problem. My home wifi is with ATT Uverse. I cheched the IP address on my laptop and its different than on my Ipod although it on the same network.

Move off WEP to WPA or, preferably, to WPA2 (as recommended by Apple). WEP has been deprecated by the WiFi Alliance since 2004 as insecure (it can be cracked in seconds by any hacker).
Note that each device on a network has a unique IP address but if your address starts with 169 then you did not get a valid IP address assigned to you by your router. If restarting the router did not cure the problem then you should check for a firmware update for your router.

TS1398 Why can I still connect to the internet, but I can no longer connect to the iTunes store?

My family recently gave me an iPad for Mother's Day. It's been really awesome, but suddenly today I began getting an error: "Cannot connect to iTunes Store."
The process looks great right up to the download. Then, after the icon appears with the status bar, just before you would expect the status bar to start filling out...BAM, error!
I can connect to the internet just fine. I am able to sync via WiFi without trouble. I'm pretty sure I have tried all the troubleshooting on-and-offs. I even did a restore.
Am I missing something? Why would it work fine one minute and get all quirky the next?
Help me Obi-wan Kenobi; you're my only hope.

FiOS INTERNET - Why can't I connect to the Internet?

Please see the following link for details on this topic:

Pro848 wrote:
Alright, so I unplugged my Fios router and plugged in my NetGear router for about an hour or so. Then I unplugged my NetGear router and plugged back in my Fios router. But then, Ethernet slot on the Fios router is orange even though the wire was plugged in. However, when I switched back to the NetGear router, the Ethernet was green. Now I can't connect to the internet using the Fios router, why? BTW, I probably accidently unplugged the Fios Box but I quickly plugged it back in.
The system DHCP asigns the IP address based on the MAC hardware address of the router. If you plugged your Netgear into the ONT, and it was able to pick up an address that quick, you would need to find a way to release the address from the Netgear and unplug it quickly before it gets reasigned back to the Netgear. Or leave the Netgear unpluged for about a hour or two, then plug the Actiontec back into the ONT. It might not take an hour or two to get the new address, but it is one way to prevent residential customers from getting more than one public IP address. Or connect the Actiontec and call the Verizon FCS and have them release and renew your IP.

Why can't I connect to the internet? It says that I'm connected, but then I get messages that my iPad isn't connected to the internet.

I've tried the troubleshooting things that I've seen, but it still doesn't work. The wifi notification on top says that I'm connected, but I can't get to any websites.
Help!!

The wifi symbol only indicates the presence of a wifi signal, not that you are connected.

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.

Why can't i connect to the internet using airport

I can't connect to the internet using Airport. I have to use a ethernet connection.

go to applications>utilities, and make sure your wireless is showing up in the left colum. If you see it there follow the promps to set it up

Airport working why can't I connect to the internet?

I am having a problem staying connected to the internet even though the airport is has four bars showing. When there is a connection I have a hard time opening more than one window. One tab will be fine while the next will tell me to check my network. Network diagnostics usually pops and I have to wait for the computer to figure out that it is connected to the internet. The last time this happen all I needed was an upgrade but this is a macbook from late 2006 so it will not accept the OS X lion uprade not enough memory.

My MacBook pro will not connect to the Internet through wifi yet all other devices do

My MacBook pro will not connect to the Internet through wifi. I have several other wifi enabled devices and they are all connected to the Internet just fine... What could/would cause this?

Disable your AirPort and enable in a second. Or check, maybe you need to type in correct digits in; Settings/Network/Advanced/Configure...

I can't use Firefox on my new "used" computer. All other Browsers are working.

I cannot get firefox to load a single web page. I just got this computer and all of my other browsers are working. Is there anything I can do?
I have tried the troubleshooting suggestions to no avail.
Thanks for any suggestions!

I did everything you suggested and it seemed to be a repeat of everything I did yesterday. Going through "Macintosh HD" just got me to the same place I was in yesterday, going through Finder to 'Judy' to 'Library' to 'iPhoto Library'. There just isn't anything there that looks like what you describe: 'Permissions' or 'Rights & Priveges'. From everything I see when I monkey around in my 'User' folder, there are no restrictions on anything.
BDAqua is indicating one of the standard paths/locations for the iPhoto Library:
Macintosh HD -> Users -> Judy -> Pictures -> iPhoto Library
At least that's where mine was on Snow Leopard and is on Lion. The location you've indicated, isn't standard:
Macintosh HD -> Judy -> Library -> iPhoto Library
When you get to "iPhoto Library",
- select/hightlight it
- Then click cmd-I (or under the "File" menu, select "Get Info")
- At the very bottom of the "Info" window you should "Sharing and Permissions" -- that's what BDAqua is asking about.

Why can I only connect to the internet using my IPhone 5S 4G via a USB and not wirelessly?

Apologies if I'm not using the right jargon ... I have a laptop (Dell Latitude D510 - Windows 7 Ultimate) that can connect to my Mobile Broadband wirelessly no problem but I can't utilise my IPhone's 4G connection (iOS 7.0.5) unless I use the USB cable (my personal hotspot is also on). I can't connect wirelessly to my personal hotspot without the USB cable. It keeps saying Windows is unable to connect to my IPhone. I have tried to troubleshoot this myself but can't find an obvious problem. Interestingly I could only connect via my USB when I downloaded the ITunes program as my computer failed to recognise my IPhone. Furthermore, I have a Dell Alienware laptop which has no problems connecting to my IPhone either way - USB or wirelessly (also has ITunes downloaded). I've searched the Internet forums for an answer on but I can't find one. Can anyone help? Thanks if you can.

Personal Hotspot requires a password:

HT1695 Why can't i connect to the internet with my iPad?

My ipads been working just fine ever since i got (a little less than a month ago) and today the wifi connection went off for less than a minute ( i was using my macbook pro at the moment) and came back. The computer continued using the internet just fine but not my ipad. I choose my network in the wifi settings and the circle thing is spinning right next to its name and is not responding, it just spins perpetually. Ive tried everything i could from turning the ipad on/off, to resetting the network settings and unrecognizing my network and connecting again. I thought it maybe was the wifi network itself but then why is my computer and ipod connected just fine (i've also tried unconnecting/connecting to my wifi in them and it works??)?? I am practically right next to the router and i gave up trying new solutions so if someone could please help me out with this!

Hi,
Try resetting your iPad - hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears. See if that clears it up.
Cheers,
GB

Why can I not connect to the internet efficiently?

It seems the only place my mac is able to connect effectively to the internet is at the genius bar when I take it in to resolve this issue.
At home, my girlfriend is able to connect to our linksys internet on her macbook wirelessly, however right next to her, I am not able to do so.
At my house where I recently was able to connect fully, it is now slow and soon fades away after time.
I find my internet to be slow in many places ex: Starbucks, other homes, etc.
When I run both assitant and diagnostic it gets me nowhere.
Is there a setting in my network that could be changed or some sort of preferences in advanced I can change to fix the problem?
Thank you.

The router is wep code. I put in the right #'s. it worked for a while, then quit working. I restarted the router and everything.

Why can't I connect to the internet in my home all other appliances are working
