Windows 8.1: Unable to connect to IBSS network with a profile installed manually

I created an IBSS network, Imported the IBSS profile and trying to connect from my Windows 8.1 machine. It was not connecting to the network for some reason. Is it supported in Windows 8.1?
I was able to connect to the network from Windows 7 machine using same IBSS profile, But not with Windows 8.1. Is there any known issue related to this?

Hi,
Please take a look at the following articles regarding IBSS network:
Connection Operation Guidelines for Independent BSS Networks
Please note: IBSS (Ad hoc) and SoftAP are deprecated. Starting with Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2, use Wi-Fi Direct.

From Azure unable to connect internal LAN network with windows RRAS site to site VPN

Hi All,
Below is my scenario.
Our side.
We have installed RRAS on Windows 2012 R2 on VMware and created a site to site VPN with azure.
on RRAS server we have two interfaces
eth0- 10.1.1.1
eth1- 10.1.1.2
We have natted(static nat) internal ip (eth0) 10.1.1.1 with public ip 1.1.1.1 (eg.).
On Azure,
We created a gateway, and two VMs.
VM1 = 11.11.11.1
VM2 = 11.11.11.2
Both VMs can ping each other.
VPN gateway on Azure and demand dial on RRAS server shows connected and, in and out data shows as well.
We can ping, tracert and rdp the RRAS server using both the interfaces IP [eth0- 10.1.1.1 , eth1- 10.1.1.2]
But we are unable to ping, tracert or rdp our other internal Lan machines on 10.1.x.x
So we can reach Azure VM from our RRAS and
we can reach RRAS server from Azure VM.
But we cannot reach our other internal Lan machines from Azure VM and from other internal Lan machine to Azure VM.
Please help?

I will give you some pointers to check.
The reason for this could be one of the two
- local site in azure virtual network is not configured correctly
- route for the azure subnet is not setup correctly on rras server
Can you please validate the above?
Open the Routing and Remote access UI and verify that there is a static route for azure subnet and the interface is the public ip of the azure gateway.
Also verify that you have a local site created with the on-premises subnet and added in the azure virtual network.
What is the gateway specified in the on-premises VM. Provide it as the IP of eth1, the IP that is not natted
Is NAT allowing all traffic in or is it restricted to certain points.

UNABLE TO CONNECT TO WIRELESS NETWORK WITH APPLE WINDOWS COMPUTERS CAN

I am new to Apple and am trying to connect to our at home wireless network.Have a Linksys wireless router that is functioning as far as I know correctly.We are able to connect with windows based laptops.My Apple sees our network which is identified correctly and asks for a password.When we enter the password that functions for the other computers it does not work.I s there a configuration change I need to make.Maybe a password variant? I really want to get this up and running and am out of ideas.

Are you using WEP, if you can try and use WPA.
One of the problems with WEP is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP.
In order to make things easier for people, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling people to use simple memorable WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys.
The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a Netgear client and vice versa.
One thing is a 13 character 128 bit WEP password will be hashed by all vendors in the same way (if you use 40bit WEP then a 5 character password is required).
Though sometimes not even that works and the HEX key must be used regardless.

WPA
"WPA Personal" on the Mac corresponds to plain WPA, with a pre-shared key (PSK) and TKIP encryption, on non-Apple wireless routers. The same alphanumeric password should work on both.

Windows 10 failing unable to connect to network

Ive just downloaded windows 10 on my hp pavillions laptop a 15-p264na and it seems like am unable to connect to the network every time i go on edge or firefox I get timed out when I check the drivers it says they are up to date , but how can it check if the drivers are suitable for windows 10 if even I cant get on via edge or firefox It seems via these forums that a lot of users have reverted to windows 8.1 then upgraded again ,My computer says its connected to my router but when i put it through a system check it says theres no connection as if the drivers not suitable for 10 , I am so dissappointed Ive wasted many hours trying to resolve this issue its like the laptop is useless unable to communicate with the outside world so it looks like I am going to have to restore windows 8.1 so any advice welcome

My WiFi and my Ethernet drivers worked on the first boot into Windows 10, then I was prompted to restart again. After that restart I was never able to get on the network again, and in Device Manager it says that both devices were unable to start and had no driver. My only fix was to revert back to Windows 7 then upgrade again. Its been fine since that.

INS0009: Unable to connect to the database with user SYS

Hi all,
I'm trying to create an OWB repository with OWB repository assistant (10.2.0.2.) on a 10.2.0.1. database (windows XP platform). I get the following error every time I fill in the connect info for the SYS user:
INS0009: Unable to connect to the database with user SYS. java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
I can connect to the database (sqlplus sys/<password>@orcl as sysdba) and the OS user is in the ora_dba group. Also checked the database parameters remote_login_passwordfile (= EXCLUSIVE) and O7_DICTIONARY_ACCESSIBILITY=TRUE.
Does anyone know what the problem is? Any help is appreciated.
Regards,
Quinten

Ok I found the problem myself, I used the wrong sys password :-(. I thought the password I used to logon in sqlplus was right (sqlplus sys/<password>@orcl as sysdba) but the password doesn't matter when you logon as sysdba! So I altered the password for the user sys and now I can continue the steps of the repository assistant.

EthernetIP, Unable to connect to the network path specified, Multiple NICs

I have not been able to find an answer concerning this error, so I am hoping someone can help.
Computer has LabVIEW 2013 with the NI-Industrial Communications for EtherNet/IP 1.2.1 addon with Win XP although I have verified the same setup with Win 7 x32 with the same results. I am using the EthernetIP CIP Get Attribute Single.vi and the corresponding "Set" vi.
I am using a pc with five network cards, one for the corporate network (dhcp) and four that are connected to four Rockwell PowerFlex 700S AC variable drives via CAT6 crossover cables. Each 700S drive controls a motor in an engine dyno teststand. The 700S drives have the latest available firmware installed. The four NIC/700S pairs have hard coded IP addresses with the appropriate subnet masks for proper routing. I can use the Windows "ping" command without errors. The program uses a QSM-PC architecture which I have four separate qsm loops that "talk" to the each drive, those loops constantly request three parameters from the drive, a boolean drive status array, the rpm , and the torque every 250ms using the CIP "Get" vi. That data is then sent to the main front panel via shared variables. When the operator wants to say change the rpm, a write command is inserted into the queue, and the CIP "Set" vi is used.
My problem is when I start the program, it is hit or miss on whether these loops will begin to loop through their states. If they start, the program is rock solid. When one of the loops does not start, which is most of the time, the error returned is the "-251723767 Unable to connect to the network path specified". See the attached pictures. So if I disable three of the four loops, the error never shows up. Adding another loop or more will cause the error. Slowing down the request rate does not fix the issue and it is not always the same loop that will throw the error. Each qsm loop has its own session name and its own action engine with the only common thing amongst the action engines would be the "Get" and "Set" EthernetIP VIs.
No more ideas.....Kevin

250 ms is a pretty slow update rate for CIP so Why use a nic for each drive? Use 1 drive nic in your PC and use a network switch to connect with your drives. If You have more then 1 nic you need to specify the nic to use for each loop for each drive IP address so the drive and the loops are using the correct IP settings. You should be able to use as low as 30 ms updates with no problems.

TS3274 Unable to connect to wi fi with mini IPad wi fi is working with other IPads?

Unable to connect to wi fi with mini iPad? All other iPads are able to connect. Not sure what to do?

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

Why can I connect to my home network with my iPhone 5 in one room, but when I move to another it is 'unable to connect to the network'

At home, I can connect my iPhone 5 to my home wifi network with no problems, as long as I stay downstairs.
As soon as I go upstairs my phone disconnects from the network. I can still see the home network it in the available network lists (with full signal strength), but when I try to reconnect I get an 'unable to connect to the network message'
If I move back downstairs it reconnects
This has only started happening in the past week or so
I've tried to forget and rejoin the network, but this doesn't work
I reset my network settings on the phone. This worked for a couple of hours and I could connect to the wifi upstairs, but now it won't connect again.
Does anyone have any ideas what is causing this?

Sounds like your wi-fi signal strength has degraded. Try rebooting your wi-fi router, or get it serviced.
Do you have similar issues with any other wi-fi routers?

Suddenly unable to connect to wireless network...exhausted all fixes

I’ve got an odd problem with my two-week old MacBook Pro and its connection to my wireless network. I’ve done what I think is pretty exhaustive troubleshooting, but remain baffled. Here’s the story.
This morning I connected to my wireless network (DSL 2WIRE modem/router) with no problem. This afternoon I returned and Airport refused to connect, giving me the error message, “Airport is unable to connect to the wireless network…” The network shows up as being available, but when I attempt to connect, it wont. (I didn’t make any changes or install any programs this morning).
Here’s what I’ve done:
[1] Restarted the router
[2] Repaired permissions
[3] Deleted the network’s entry in Keychain Access
[4] Re-entered my WEP code (assuring it is in correctly; I’ve tried both with the “$” and without)
[5] Used interface robustness and without.
[6] Attempted to join the network from the System Preferences>Network.Airport route.
[7] Created a new account and tried connecting.
Other tidbits of information:
[1] Another MacBook in the house connects to the network with no problem.
[2] My MacBook can connect to another (unsecured) network that I can “see” in my house.
So, it would seem my Airport card is working okay.
Any ideas??

Some more info (in case anyone is listening...)
I tried turning off the WEP code and could connect. (Since I share files on my home network, this isn't a "solution").
I also tried Resetting the MacBook Pro System Management Controller (SMC)(See: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303319). I did this (I think -- there wasn't any indication that the reset "took"), but alas -- no luck.
I gave Apple Care a call, but the support guy, while courteous and all, didn't have anything to offer other than telling me to take it in to an Apple Store for a repair (clearly it isn't a hardware issue).
Heeellllppppp!

Unable to connect to Wi-Fi with password

Hello,
I'm having a slight issue with an iPod and iPad. As the title says, I'm unable to connect to wi-fi with password encryption (WPA2). I don't understand why! I can connect to wi-fi when I take the password encryption off. I've been able to connect to wi-fi previously with password encryption enabled. I live in a complex with three other neighbors. I'd prefer to not leave the encryption off. Does anyone have an idea as to how to solve this problem? I've already tried restatarting the iPod and restarting the wireless router. I tried to forget the network as well on both devices and reconnect them, however, when I try to reconnect them it tells me "unable to connect to the network". I do not wish to do a factory reset for either devices. Also, I'm unsure whether this is related or not, but I just updated my software recently to OS 6.1.2 ...my problem began a day after doing so.
Any feedback would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance. 8]
I have a Netgear WNDR3400 wireless router.

- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

I would try another encryption but still use encryption. Also try changing the PW.

Windows 8, Error: "Can't connect to this network"

I have wracked my brain, my colleague’s brains, and used my googlefu to no avail.
I have a Win8 basic (cheapest OS) HP tablet 1000G2 that I am having troubles with. I have a network that requires WPA2-Enterprise with PEAP. It will not connect to this network, it will however connect to a neighboring network without
any security settings. I have fixed this issue once before and the same fix is not working.
The kicker... I have another exact same tablet that we got the same day... No issues connecting
Problem: It does not take the security settings that the server is prompting for. It prompts me for my credentials, but gives this error: "Can't connect to this network"
I did research last time and the collective reason was that the security settings weren't correct.
Solution that worked last time:
Connect to a network with open sec settings.
Open network and sharing center
Change adapter settings.
Right click wireless adapter click status
Wireless properties.
Security tab.
Change my network settings
Reconnect to my network
The tablet has been fine until today. These steps above do not resolve the issue anymore.
THERE IS NO VIRUS PROTECTION BESIDES WHAT WINDOWS OFFERS ON THIS DEVICE!
Troubleshooting steps I have tried: deleting all the wlan profiles with
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/manage-wireless-network-profiles
and used http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-networking/windows-8-laptop-wont-connect-to-the-wireless/256c8bd2-e11f-4746-b3aa-3e6eb8305b56 page.
Change any properties one at a time that I thought might deal with this.
Removed all HP bloatware/3rd party connection managers.
Troubleshooting I tried last time:
Uninstalled and installed adapter drivers.
Tried the windows diagnose
Googlefu "Can't connect to this network" and you come up with a bunch of pages I have clicked on them and none of the solutions have worked.
Please if you have any solutions let me know! I am at my wits end with this dang thing.

These are all logical ideas, but alas I have already checked all of this. We do not have any blocking other than credentials(which are not locked and are correct). The amount of connections would be determined by how many IP Addresses that I have(which is
a ton). Not the wireless router, because we have many other devices that connect to it just fine. No mac filter. No the other pc isn't connected. No it is only connecting to one network.
I should mention that this is in an enterprise and not an at home network. It is a WAP not Wireless Router.

Unable to connect Wi-Fi network after ISO 6 update

unable to connect Wi-Fi network after ISO 6 update. I'm not impressed.

I updated to ISO 6 on my Daughters Iphone 4S, my Iphone 4, and I have now received my new Iphone 5 yesterday and now all 3 of them have wi-fi issues. I know its not my wi-fi because My Daughters Ipad 2 and my Wife's Iphone 4 is still on 5.11 and the wi-fi works fine. I cant understand why apple have not been saying what's going on and when they will fix it. I have tried everyone's suggestions on this forum and the Internet. Still no luck.

Same To me. I have Asus WL-500W router at home, WPA2-PSK(AES), password similar to this "lIGf@91pY0TnFY!Jh@7LjTUlsL3ZPY", MAC address filtering. My old Nokia E51 works, my Touch Pro Works with it. When i try my one day old Nokia E72 it does not work, the same like others:WLAN: Unable to connect. Wlan Network not Found. E72 works at my work wifi, which has the same settings but without mac filtering. Have no idea what is happening, all is setting correctly. MAC address of E72 is allowed on router. It has the same settings like E51, but E51 works like a charm E72 does not work. What is wrong?
As already suggested, you could try disabling the MAC filtering from the router, just to outrule possibility of a typo while entering E72's MAC address to router settings.
Have you tried swithing a WLAN channel that your router uses?
Log in to your router's web management pages (check router's default IP address and username/password from it's manual) and switch of the "Automatic" channel selection mode. Try few different channels, like 1, 3, 6, 9, 11, if one of the channels happens to work any better. Note that in case you have set your router to use channels 12 or 13 (or in case "Automatic" channel selection mode has decided to select channel 12 or 13) you must have a SIM card inserted and some other than "Offline" profile enabled on your phone since Offline mode (i.e. airplane / flight mode) won't allow your phone to operate on higher channels than 11.
In case you have configured your WLAN network (SSID) to be "hidden", try disabling hidden SSID mode on the router.
Asus WL-500W router seems to be a pre-standard 802.11n device so might be worth looking in to your router's WLAN settings and see if playing around with router's WLAN operating mode and settings improve the situation. First of all ensure that your router is not set to operate in 20/40MHz mode (set it to 20MHz only) assuming that the router is in default 802.11b/g/n mode. You could also try disabling the 802.11n mode completely by selecting a 802.11b/g mode (if available).
You should probably also check that you're running latest (2.0.0.6 ??) firmware version on your Asus WL-500W router since there seems to plenty of complaints regarding WLAN connectivity and stability issues (in general, not specific to Nokia handsets) with this particular router model.

Unable to connect to my network at home

I am not sure as to how to set-up my connection to my network with the AirPort wireless system. What I'm I suppose to do to connect to my cisco network. Can someone please assist me in this matter

Is your Cisco device a WiFi router, or just a router?
I'll assume WiFi router.
Your home network should appear in the menu bar WiFi icon (a set of concentric arcs on the right side of the menu bar).
Select your Cisco WiFi router's name from the list.
If you are prompted for the password, then enter it. That should be all you need to do.
If your Cisco router is using WEP encryption, this can be a problem, as WEP has 2 different password encoding conventions, Microsoft's and Apple's. They are not compatible. ALso WEP is so insecure it can be cracked in less than a minute by easily available software.
Anyway, if your Cisco is configured with WEP encryption, then you need to enter the hexidecimal key, the text password will not work.
A better approach if you have WEP is to change the Cisco WiFi router to use WPA or WPA2 which has a standard password encoding method that is used by ALL WiFi devices, so you can then use the text password. In addtion WPA is very secure.
If none of this information works, or makes sense to you, we will need more information about your setup at home.
