Wifi for multiple ipod touches

Trying to get multiple ipod touch units online with a single Apple router. I can get 5 connections and then the 6th+ won't allow a connection. Tried different routers that will run 20+ computers wirelessly but still stuck on only 5 ipod touches allowed at a time. Help!

You need to make sure the DHCP range is wide enough for all the devices you are running. I can think of nothing that would prevent you from running as many as you want at one time. Go to an Apple store - they probably have 50+ iPhones and touches on line at any given moment.
Anyway, more information about your network setup would be helpful. You didn't really post enough information to come up with any kind of meaningful help.

HT3867 Is it possible to pay for wifi for my iPod touch?

I had heard that you can pay for wifi on your iPod but haven't figured out how. I want to have Internet access at all times and not just when I'm near the router. Is this even possible to get with an iPod touch?

No.
You would ahve to be near a wi-fi router and have access/permission ot use that router/network.
You can buy a my-fi device form a wireless carrier that recieves a cell signal and allows you to use it via a built-in wi-fi router.

OS3.0 Cost for Multiple Ipod Touches

I have 2 Ipod Touches associated with my Itunes account. Will I have to pay $10 for OS3.0 once and install it on both Ipod Touches OR will I have to pay $10 per Ipod Touch upgrade?

Hi,
If it is like the last update, 2.0, then just once per account covers multiple devices.

Best charging solution for multiple iPod Touches?

We have 1 iMac desktop computer and 4 G2 iPod touches. I want to know the best way to charge them. The kids want chargers for their rooms, so a recommendation for wall chargers would be good. I thought a hub with 4 usb ports might work, but would it have enough power to do the job?
Any solutions appreciated. Thank You!

Download the music to your ipod when you are in a wi-fi area.
It will be stored on your ipod.

Whats the Best WiFi Router For The iPod Touch?

Dont know if this is in the right sevtion or not, but feel free to yell at me if its not lol
What is the best brand of WiFi router (e.g. linksys, D-link etc) For the iPod Touch? And are there any bad WiFi routers for the iPod?
Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!!

I can confirm 4 brands.
Linksys
Netgear

All have worked without any special configuration for the ipt.
Actually, I don't really think their is a better router, every network I have connected to worked, absolutly no trouble at all.
Btw- this message came from an 1.1.3 ipt via a netgear wireless connection.

Multiple iPod Touchs with Facetime linked to a single Apple ID

I have Multiple iPod Touchs (7 to be exact) with Facetime linked to a single Apple ID using different email addresses but all connected to the same WiFi network. Problem is that when I try to call one from another, multiples ring. I can call my iPhone4 with no problems even when the iPhone4 is on the same WiFi (iPhone4 is also linked to the same Apple ID). From what I have read, this should work and, in fact, it does.... sorta. Does anyone know how to get the calls to be answered by only the iTouch that is associated with that email that I am calling?
Thanks in advance....

Hey EZ Jim,
Thank you so much for your responce.
You're welcome.
But, actually, that is exactly what I did. For example, I assiged the email address itouchone ... to the first one and itouchtwo ... the second and so on for all seven. Still, they are answering each others calls (usually multiples). For instance, I call itouchone... and itouchone, itouchthree, itouchfour, and itouchseven answer.
(1) If some or all of the seven emails you used are Dot Mac or Mobile Me email addresses, they may be aliases that will not work.

(2) If the seven emails you used are literally those you posted, perhaps creating more and using each as a separate iD rather than merely caller iDs associated with only one iD could get FaceTime working.
I would start with only two iPods. Once you can make two work, you can replicate the solution five more times.
(3) Did you consider all relevant info in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4319
I am totally confused. Could it be that facetime is sending out both the primary ID and the associated id? Help!!!
Thanks again,
DAVE

Apps on multiple iPod touches

My wife and I are planning on each getting a 32Gb iPod touch and an 8Gb iPod touch for our son. Currently we each have our own iPods (2 Nanos and one 5g 30Gb video) and all connect to iTunes on my account and only via my iMac. We don't have multiple iTunes accounts and as we sync now we share the same library with no trouble. My question is when we get our iPod touches and purchase apps will we have to purchase multiple copies of apps or can we just use one copy for all iPod touches?

If you use the same account, then you can share the apps.

If the wifi on my iPod Touch is on nothing else on the router will connect to the internet

Ever since I updated my iPod Touch 4th Gen to iOS 6, If the wifi on my iPod Touch is on nothing else on the router will connect to the internet..
It's the weirdest thing.
My Wired and WiFi computers are experiencing DNS errors, unresolved URLs and in general having difficulty connecting to the internet...
That is.... UNTIL I SHUT OFF THE WIFI ON MYiPOD 4th Gen TOUCH!!!
Then everything works fine.
I've reset my router, several times.
I've reset my Cable Moden, several times.
The problem persists until I disable the WiFi on my iPod

Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is 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.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

Why is my wifi on my ipod touch 2nd gen not working?

Can someone help with the wifi on my ipod touch 2nd Gen? Yesterday it suddenly stopped connecting to anything wifi. No settings were changed. The only thing I did was go to itunes for the first time in well, forever. I always use it on my computer to go in itunes, not my ipod. Anyway, I'm pretty sure I could still get on Safari after that but I don't really remember. At some point in the evening it stopped connecting. I can't get on Safari, my mail won't refresh, it would connect to the app store, nothing. Sometimes a message does pop up saying there was a problem connecting to the server. I can't figure this out, internet on my computer is running perfectly fine. My ipod wifi is on, airplane mode off. When I go into my settings it shows my network and that it's connected. I haven't connected it or synced it to the new itunes. I actually haven't downloaded the update yet. Ipod is up to date though without the new sync. Can anyone help me out? I'm very confused.
Thanks

Why does my Windows Vista computer say the wrong iPod Touch name? I have multiple iPod Touches and after updating one of them, Windows Explorer says they are all the same name now.

Sorry for the exceedingly long title...
I have multiple iPod touches, and I just updated one of them to the newest iOS (5.0.1). Now whenever I plug in any of the others, the name of the one I updated appears in Windows explorer. How can I make Windows able to determine which iPod is which again?

iPod Classic are high drain USB devices, I hope you are not trying to connnect them simultaneously to iTunes, which will definitely hang your USB Host controller, thereby freeze iTunes.
But here is an Apple Support Article on using multiple iPods for iTunes.

Do I need a data plan for my IPod Touch to use FaceTime?

I have FaceTime on my IPod BUT don't know if I need a data plan to run it. My uncle says I do and I'm not sure. HELP.

Well, it isn't even possible to have a data plan for the iPod Touch. You can just use wifi to use FaceTime.

Can I use the apps that I purchased for my iPod touch on my new iPhone 3GS?

I just pre-ordered the iPhone 3GS and I wonder if I can put the apps that I have on my iPod Touch onto the phone also? Can you purchase apps once and use them on 2 devices? If so, how do I do this?

You can authorize up to 5 computers with the same iTunes account, but there isn't any limit for the number of iPods and/or iPhones that can be synced with the same iTunes library and iTunes account. This applies to 3rd party apps which include DRM protection, which iTunes music that is purchased now no longer includes.
If you sync multiple iPod Touches and/or iPhones with the same iTunes library, each device has its own sync preferences with iTunes.
