Wifi connection isn't working!

My 1g ipod won't let me onto any kind of wifi connection. I can acess the server, but it says, "Unable to join the network _______" Someone please help! This is very urgent!

Do other devices connect to the router?
Does the iPod connect to other routers?
Try:
- A rest. Nothing will be 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.
- Powering off and then back on the router
- Reetting network settings: Settings>Genral>Reset>Reet Network Settings

wifi antenna isn't working and need to back up phone throught icloud but how is that possible to do if the wifi isn't working???

Hello Bren,
Thank you for details of the issue you are experiencing with backing up your iPhone to iCloud. I have a couple of suggestion to help with getting your iPhone backed up.
If you have not tried troubleshooting the issue you are experiencing with Wi-Fi on your iPhone, I recommend reviewing the following article:

If you have tried those steps and it is indeed a hardware issue with your Wi-Fi antenna, I recommend backing up using iTunes:

Since updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1 I'm having compatibility issues with my speakers and my iTunes wifi sync isn't working. Anyone else having the same problems?

Since updating my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1 I'm having compatibility issues with my speakers / docking station and my iTunes wifi sync isn't working. Anyone else having the same problems? Both worked fine until the update...

Okay. I got it working again by setting it up as a new phone instead of just syncing. Then I backed up. All is good today.

Every app on my ipod (2nd gen) which requires wifi connection doesn't work although the wifi mark is on. i did try restarting my ipod, resetting network setting, disconnect from wifi and reconnected it but non of them worked.

This may sound silly but try your date a time setting my ipod had the same problem and i had even checked the the date and time went all the way to the apple store for help and the genius guy just rest the date and time and it worked just fine.

My iPad 3 wifi connection has been working perfectly.

My iPad 3 wifi connection has been working perfectly. Now I have lost automatic connections and when I join wifi told it is the wrong password. IT IS NOT. I have reset the network settings and can then connect with no problem. Keeps happening every time I try to join another wifi connection. Seems I can only store one connection at a time. This is a new problem and previously all of the connections I am tying to join worked absolutely perfectly. Is this a software update problem?

Thanks. Seems unlikely that several Wi-fi routers that were working fine have simultaneously stopped doing so.
Have tried a full system reset and set up the ipad as a new device again. Will find out whether that has worked when I try to connect my next wi-fi router tomorrow morning. I will also double check with the other ipad users whether they have been experiencing any problems with the router I could not connect to today until I reset the network settings.
Thanks again

Imessaging on my wifes ipad2 isn't working. It will recieve messages, but when I try to send them to my iphone or my ipad the send button is grayed out and it won't go.

imessaging isn't working on my wifes ipad2. She can recieve messages from my iphone or my ipad1, but she can't send them.

The file format used by the iOS versions of the iWork apps can only be read by the new iWork apps on your Mac - i.e. Keynote 6, Pages 5 & Numbers 3. Those versions for the Mac require Mavericks, OS X 10.9. The "too old" error on a Mac comes if you are trying to open an iWork '08 or earlier file in the newest apps. If you do have the newest apps you can open the files from your iPad.
If you can't or don't want to upgrade to Mavericks & the newest iWork apps your best option would be to export/share the files from the iPad to a type an older version of iWork can read such as Word, text, Excel, etc.
Or contact AppleCare. They made this mess, let them fix it.

Ios 7 wifi connected but not working

my iphone 5s running ios 7 is connected to my home wifi but its not working, but my pc is doing fine on that wifi. and when i try connecting my iphone to other wifi it seems to work without any problem. i've reseted network settings many times and reseted all settings once but it wouldnt work for me. so whats the problem and how can i fix this?

Try power cycling your router. Remove the router from power for about 30 seconds and then start it back up again. After it is finished configuring, try connecting your device again.

Iphone5 - Downloading application from app store takes more than 24 hours to download and install, even if the memory size of app is very small about 2 MB. WIFI connection seems to works well - because the webpages browsing using safari is very fast.

I face problem with downloading application from apple store.
It took more than 5 hours to install google maps application and many other application took more than 24 hours.
It is very worst to see such downloading performace with my new bought iphone5.
My WIFI connections seems to be very good. As I can able to open many webpages at very high speed.
I can able to see my many HD videos open and play immediately once I touch.
Though i cannot able to test the speed, as the www.speedtest.net also not working in my iphone5.
When i launch speedtest.net app i get the message "Finding closest server" forever and it is never showing the speed details.
My laptop shows the 10Mbps speed with speedtest.net on the same WIFI network
I got much frustrated with iphone5. Can someone help me to fix this issue ?

Hi Thaimic,

These are my WLAN details.under DHCP and BootP. Could you please tell me what to do with the DNS ? I do not have idea about the DNS.

Ios 8.2 wifi connection no longer working

"upgraded" to ios 8.2 on iPod touch 5 and now no wifi connectivity no matter what steps. Already did the reset, hard reboot, etc .

Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.
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 Likely you did this but not sure what a hard reboot is)
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 and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

[SOLVED] WIFI connection is not working

Yet Another WIFI issue
When I try 'wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c <(wpa_passphrase "mylongssid" "mylongkey")'
I receive this error:
Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant
wlan0: Failed to initialize driver interface
I was on my wifi at home this morning surfing the web and then I went to school (So I hopped to a different WIFI in other words)
It seems no matter what I do with netctl, iw, wifi-menu, and ip link that nothing works. Currently I do know how to set wlan0 up/down, restart my netctl profiles, display iw stuff, scan with iw, etc.
But I do not seem to know enough. Can anybody help by providing some debug commands?

Some Broadcom chip that has b43 firmware.
I will post the output of the lspci in a few moments. I have to transfer some output via a flash drive.
Here is the output of some stuff:
http://pastebin.com/8vNyHZWs
My drivers worked fine this morning at my house, and they usually work at school after a reboot. So I am not sure why you need driver info. My question was what debug commands can help me diagnose my wpa_supplicant error? As in what log files can I check? If I could find a log with a more descriptive error, I might be able to fix my WIFI. Or possibly some logs for netctl? I really do not know, since networking is usually magic in all the easier linuxes I have used in the past.
Thanks for the really quick responses by the way I have never had such a fast help response for any other distro.
Edit: I should note that both my home and school networks have the same type of WPA security.
Update: When I booted my labtop at home, I ran wifi-menu and voila my home network was working. I will try the WIFI at school again tomorrow and post another update after that.
Update 2: Running wifi-menu at school worked today. I have no clue why it did not work yesterday. (I really should setup netctl-auto)

My wifi button isn't working and my iPhone 6 doesn't letme connect to wifi so I have been using 4G for the last 2 days! How can I fix it ?

OOkay so yesterday my phone kept stuffing up and blacking out so I had to keep rebooting it
i think it did this about 5 times, the first time it did it and I turned it back on
eeverything was fine , but then my wifi button went blue and even in settings the option to turn it on isn't available

Try doing this:
Settings -> General -> Reset -> Reset Network Connections
Phone will reboot, you will have to enter your WiFi Passwords again - BUT should resolve the problem.

My Thunderbolt to HDMI connection isn't working anymore.

I've had my MacBook Pro for about a year now (2.4 GHz i5), and I've been using a Thunderbolt to HDMI adaptor to connect to my Sharp 32" LCD with no problems since I bought it...until this week when I updated all my software/OS. Now, I can connect, the displays prefs see the monitor, but all I get is black. No sound either...even though the sound prefs recognize the HDMI connection.
I know the problem isn't the cable. It used to work, and it still actually connects this same laptop to my projector...but it won't display on my TV anymore. I even get sound on my projector. It works like my TV used to. The problem started with the update, so I want to know what changed...and when Apple plans on fixing it. These are not cheap computers...I am kind of embarassed that I have to use my gf's $350 Acer to play Netflix on our TV when I have this multimedia monster gathering dust.
This problem is extremely frustrating, and I've been doing some research on it. It seems like quite the problem for a lot of people! There are multiple unresolved discussions on here about it (some of them over 40 pages long!) and I can't really believe Apple isn't dealing with this. It's been years now since this started happening, I guess.
We're mac users...we need multiple displays, and we need this stuff to keep working when we update! That's why we've made Apple into the richest corporation in the world. Step up superstars...fix this!
Again (just to be clear) I know the problem isn't the cable, so don't tell me to go get a different one, or that it's the issue. Me and my gf basically wore out Netflix with this very laptop and cable up until this week, and I've never had an issue with it..ever, until this update (to OS 10.7.5). Everything is in good shape, and if the laptop/computer is still feeding to my projector just fine...there's something else going on here, and I think a lot of people would love to know what it is. I am not the only person this is happening to, and it's been years since people have been begging Apple to fix this!
I hope that Apple looks into this and puts these discussions to rest. There are a lot of them! Do a search! The "More Like This" box on the right here is FULL of very similar UNRESOLVED discussions. This should be a priority. You've all made enough money off us...now make your stuff work like it's supposed to and close these threads!

No, I am a media professional who uses his MacBook Pro to connect to external monitors, and needs to continue to do so. I don't want Apple TV. I want my laptop to work again, like it's supposed to. Like it used to.
I have a demonstration this week at work that requires me to plug into an LCD screen and I am hoping to have this resolved by then. I am trying to convince my department to buy a Retina Mac and thousands of dollars worth of video software for live shows, and if I can't make it work, then I can't exactly convince them (or myself) to buy what I have been researching.
Again, I don't want wireless video or Apple TV. I don't want to buy any more stuff. I want to know why my Thunderbolt to HDMI cable stopped working after my update, and how to fix it...preferably before this meeting.

Previously succesful public wifi connection no longer works for Ipod Touch?

I work at a small airport in canada. Free public wifi is available via an Aliant Hotspot. I've used my Laptop on many occasions there. When i purchased my Ipod touch, 4th generation, it worked fine too. Until recently. Now, the touch recognizes that the network is there. it connects, or so it appears, but the welcome page will not load to allow me access to the interent. Please help me! Normally, as soon as i choose my hotspot network, the welcome page comes up, allows me to select my language.... legal agreements... another page as a welcome, and then full access the internet.... now nothing.
I'd be so grateful for some help!

Diane,
You're very welcome, I know that is some kind frustrating when a problem appears and it's quite difficult to find the solution.
So let's trying with this:
Based on your feedback it seems that the iPod is receiving correct data from the router, what we can try here is the following:
Connect the iPod touch into the network, and copy the network data (IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, DNS) into a piece of paper, then in the iPod Options of the network, there must be a button indicating DHCP, now press a button that must say Manually and the network data will be erased, then you must capture the information that you had copied in the paper.
When you finish, wait a couple of seconds and then do a test.
Here I have a question, you said that the iPod worked fine until recently, so another tip is try to connect your iPod to another network, this may discard that the problem with your iPod could be a hardware problem.
But first try with the insertion of the data manually.
We keep in touch!,

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
