Wireless can't connect

Looking for Network key (WEP key or WPA key)

Only you or whoever configured your wireless network can know its password.
To change it, momentarily depress the Extreme's reset button. You will have two minutes to connect to it using AirPort Utility and change your wireless network password: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3728
Read "Soft Reset".
Though the KB article above indicates a five minute period, I have timed it on my AirPort base stations and determined it's only two minutes.

My laptops that don't have a linksys card, but built in wireless can stay connected to WEP

I have a linksys WRT54GS Version 5, firmware 1.51.0 (updating after this)

OK since your security is set to WPA why do you want to go to WEP? DS? If everything is configured correctly you should not have to change anything. If you are connecting another device and forgot what your WPA setting were just go into the router and take a look see.
1. I set up everything, its all fine and ok
2. The DS can't connect to WPA, only WEP or Open
3. I know what my WPA settings are and the codes to both settings

Clients behind shared wireless can only connect one at a time to RV042

I am using a RV042 HW version 3 (black front panel and blue user interface).
I have have 2 vpn users who share an apartment.
They use a wireless router to get to the internet.
Both use Windows 7 (firewall enabled) and the latest QuickVPN client.
As it is, only one of the users can connect at the same time.
When one is already connected the other gets a message "the remote gateway is not responding"
Has anyone else experienced something like this ?
Thanks in advance.
These are the logs from the PC that connected ok:

I have restored from the export .config file and all is back to normal.
So I better leave the single tunnel as it is.
I will try with spare RV042 when I am back in Jakarta

BCM 4313 wireless can't connect, ethernet works only in live CD

Hi! I'm finding it impossible to get Arch working due to internet problems, and I've spent a while trying to figure out how to solve them and got nowhere.
My laptop has Broadcom 4313 wireless. Using wifi-menu, I can see a bunch of wireless networks, but whenever I try to connect to mine, the connection fails. When I first tried to install Arch over a year ago, this was the case, but at some point a few months on it randomly worked, then didn't, and more recently worked when I tried connecting to another network. On Mint 14 I use the broadcom-wl module and it works great. On Arch, I installed broadcom-wl when chrooted and it seemed to install fine, and when I rebooted lsmod showed that it loaded wl, but it still wouldn't connect to the router
The default wireless driver seems to be brcmsmac, and wireless in most distros in weak, probably because they can't include broadcom-wl.
dmesg | grep wl:

The RTL8101E/RTL8102E ethernet works fine on live USB, but it doesn't work at all after that. I have no idea what causes this.

I'm also probably going to install linux-rt at some point. Any ideas?

Victory (haven't tried linux-rt yet). In case this helps anyone, here's what worked for me:
I installed Lynx by downloading the package and the *.db files, allowing me to offline install it and therefore log into Studentcom's portal. This bit was made trickier by a load of pointless troubleshooting because I thought I wasn't connected. Turns out Studentcom blocks ping.
Next up, I installed the broadcom-wl package, which worked fine after rebooting into the system.
Finally, I just didn't activate ethernet properly. To get both linked up and automatically starting on boot, I did this:
systemctl enable [email protected]
wifi-menu wlp3s0
systemctl enable [email protected]
dhcpcd enp2s0
And now for the search engines: 584037-001 x16-96072

T61 wireless can't connect with authentication key enabled

Hello all,
I have a new Thinkpad T61 that will properly connect to my wireless network when the router is configured as unsecured but CANNOT connect when I set up a network key. In my router config I have tried using both the WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK authentications. I enter a 9 character network key made up of ordinary numbers that it accepted by the router, and save settings. The other settings on the screen are:
WPA Group Rekey Interval = 0
WPA Encryption = AES
WEP Encryption = Disabled
In the Windows wireless interface I select the network, type in the key, and get to the “acquiring network address” stage but no further. The connection window shows that packets are being sent and received. As soon as I go back to my router config and set it as unsecured, the wireless connects no problem. I have tested another laptop on the network with a passkey and it connected without any problems.
Occasionally when I am tinkering with the wireless settings (especially after clicking on the wireless tray icon) the system locks and I have to reboot. Before the reboot I get a program “not responding” dialog box where it asks me to end explorer.exe and a program called CiceroUIWndFrame.exe
The system came pre-loaded with Linux but I’ve changed to XP Pro. I have done all Windows updates, through SP3 and re-installed the driver for the network adapter 7kwc50ww.exe (I hope correctly??). I am using Windows to configure wireless, but thinkvantage ver. 4.52 is also running. I tried disabling Windows networking and configuring through thinkvantage, but this fails also.
I have called tech support on my DSL company but they are out of ideas and think it is my router but I am doubtful because it was working fine before I got the new machine, and it worked on the other laptop. I think something must have gone wrong in the XP install.
Any ideas??
Cheers,
Will

A quick and dirty test would be to completely uninstall Access Connections and try using just the Windows Wireless Zero Configuration. In my personal opinion, unless you are using multiple wireless configs at multiple locations the ThinkVantage software is overkill. Also, if you search the board, you will find multiple instances of SP3 wrecking wireless. Let us know if this helps.

I have a wireless home phone connect device. Can call out on it when dial tone present, but most times cannot receive calls since purchase. Anyone else having a problem with their home connect device?

Have had Wireless Home Phone connect device refreshed and updated three times since I purchased it in September 2014. Last tech I worked with on it initialized an NRB to check the network. I checked the location of the tower, which is less than one mile up the hill with clear line of site. The device always has two antennas on it. The device is great when it does work, but most of the time it rings three times and then jumps to an automated message saying the person I am calling is not available. I've actually gone up there several times to try an fix the device, but always end up calling a Verizon tech who has me unplug it, pull the battery, and they do some network stuff and then we turn it back on and it works. After the last time on 10/02/14, I called it and got the message. I drove up there, 100 miles one way, and called it while standing in the room. Got the same message. I picked up the phone, heard a dial tone and dialed my phone and it range through. I hung that phone connected to the device and call it using my cell phone. It rang through. I went home and tried to call it the next day. Again it did not ring through and I got the message after three rings. I call another phone at the facility and had them call me on my mom's phone and it is fixed it again. The fix last for a day or two and then it's broken again, like it is today. If it's a network problem then it must be fairly close to the area because no matter what we do it fails again. So much for the 99.98% reliable. This thing is a piece of junk!
I purchased this device and put it on my plan so that my mother who we placed in a home at 96 years old would have a phone connection that she could use and wouldn't flip her out. My family and her family has not been able to faithfully connect with her at this critical time in her life. I am giving Verizon 10 more days to figure this out and then I am going to ask for a total refund not to mention how much time and travel I have put into this piece of junk. Either the home connect transceiver is broken or the network is broken. Why should I pay close to $70 for a service that has not worked more than several days out of 35 days? Also I have spent close to three hours on the phone with decent technical people, but it's my time. I should send Verizon a bill for every time I have gone up there to fix this device as well.
What perplexes me is that a regular cell phone would have sufficed, but because Verizon has to have a data connection that is not available on a regular phone and it was going to cost me $30/month, I decided to go with the home connect. Seemed like a nice solution for an older person who would have a hard time using a cell phone and keeping it charged. Plus after all the fees for getting it connected, it only cost $20/month. That would be a pretty good thing, IF IT WORKED....... The other thing that irks me is, why do I have to pay for a data connection when the cell phone Verizon originally provided can't even access the network. What ever happened to adding a phone line for $10 bucks\ month? All I wanted was a simple phone. She would not be able to use anything more complex and all she needs is a phone line period.
I have no problem paying for something that works and does what it should, but this is ridiculousness. The MTF on this device is somewhere around 1 to 2 days. Out of 365 days that's about a 96.5% failure rate....... Want my advice? Get ride of this device. It sucks and it's bad marketing.

jsavage9621,
It pains me to hear about your experience with the Home Phone Connect. This device usually works seamlessly and is a great alternative to a landline phone. It sounds like we've done our fair share of work on your account here. I'm going to go ahead and send you a Private Message so that we can access your account and review any open tickets for you. I look forward to speaking with you.

Can't connect to Wireless N Router at N speed

I'm new to Mac and not very savvy with networking, but this has me stumped. I just recently purchased a new MacBook (Jan 2010). I had no real issue connecting to my home network through my Linksys WRT54G Router, but it only ran at 54Mbit/s. I purchased a new Linksys WRT120N Router, and still only connect at 54Mbit/s!
What's aggravating is the fact I can connect to my neighbor's Belkin Wireless N router at 144Mbit/s, so I know it's capable of higher connection speeds. In fact, my MacBook keeps dropping my secured home network connection and automatically connecting to his unsecured wireless network!
Any suggestion on how I can get my MacBook to connect to my Linksys Wireless N router at the speed it connects to my neighbors?
I also have a Windows Laptop with a Wireless G card, so I have to leave the setting on auto or I can't connect it the the network.
Thanks for any help!

I spoke with Linksys Tech Support and they had me change from WPA to WPA 2. More info under About this Mac now reports:
PHY Mode: 802.11n
BSSID: 0:25:9c:5:73:61
Channel: 9
Network Type: Infrastructure
Security: WPA2 Personal
Signal / Noise: -45 dBm / -96 dBm
Transmit Rate: 59
MCS Index: 6
Where it was reporting PHY Mode 802.11g before, but still only shows a transmit rate of 59, over the transmit rate of 54 before.
Unfortunately, the Chat Session with Linksys was cut off before I could ask why, or how to fix it!
This is what my neighbor's router is reporting through More Info:
BelkinN_Wireless582902:
PHY Mode: 802.11n
BSSID: 0:22:75:58:29:2
Channel: 1,1
Network Type: Infrastructure
Security: None
Signal / Noise: -79 dBm / -97 dBm
I noticed his Channel listed as 1,1 as mine is 9. Would this indicate he could possibly have a dual channel router and thus the higher speed?
When I run the Network Utility, it reports a Link Speed of 72Mbit/s where that was 54Mbit/s before changing to WPA 2. Is 72Mbit/s the best I can hope for out of this router? Thanks again...

Time Capsule Can't connect to my wireless network

Hi there,
I can't connect my new Time Capsule to my existing wireless network. I followed screen instructions, set up my network name and password, then time capsule need to be disconnected and then nothing.. My MacBook Can't see Time Capsule
I did restored it to factory and tryed manual setup but didn't work either.
Any sugestions?
Thank you

what is your current router? (the one you're trying to connect to with your TC)? If it's not Apple (Airport series, another TC) you'll mose likely experience compatibility issues. With 3rd party routers (non-Apple) it's hit and miss. Some tips:
1. use WEP not WAP as encryption
2. Make sure your current router supports WDS, set it to turn WDS on
3. try with no encryption, if you can connect, then try WEP, then WPA, you'll see where the problem is.
4. some routers, even if spec doesn't say so, work well in WDS mode and even work with TC with WPA on. The trick is to load them with "special" firmware. Linksys WRT54GL with Tomato or DD-WRT firmware is a good example. Check if there's any alternative firmwares for your router. Start here:

Good luck!

HT1178 Do I want to create a new wireless network or join my current network? I can't connect an ethernet cable to the Mac / printer and to the wireless modem at same time - in two different rooms.

I am trying to set up Time Capsule so that I can do my first backup (after 1 1/2 years!) with Time Machine. I have read other forums, but in each case they instructions eventually do not apply.
I have connected my TC to my existing wireless router. This sits in a bedroom and cannot be moved as a rental home.
I have plugged in the TC and updated the software.
Now - do I want to A Create a New Wireless Network (remember I can't connect the TC to Mac using an Ethernet cable). B Replace an existing base station or wireless router with TC (only intend to use for TM as don't know other benefits as of yet). or C want TC to join current network.
Thinking C. If I choose C, it then asks A TC to wireless join current network (NO as already connected using Ethernet). B want to connect TC to my network using Ethernet to extend my existing wireless network. C want to disable the wireless network on this TC and connect it to my computer or network using Ethernet - CANNOT do this as devices can not be in the same room.
Or do I want to create new wireless network - first set of questions - choice A? What is the benefit to creating a new one when I won't be in this rental house for longer than 18 more months??
Please help and quickly! Thanks!

Let me suggest some things.
But first ask exactly what wireless router you have now and what type of broadband service?
Are you happy with the wireless on the current router? If so, then you can plug the TC straight into whatever computer you have by ethernet, short 1M cord with no connection to the network. And use it without affecting your existing network at all. This is trivial setup.
Although you don't say exactly what Mac and printer you are using, is it a desktop? Laptop it is definitely easier not to plug it in, but a desktop you can plug in the TC and it will all sit happily together.
How is the printer connected and to what?
I am not sure why you need such quick help.. this is all minor setup stuff.. and 18months in todays world is like permanent man.
Your multiple A, B, C are more confusing than helpful.
The best choices without more info.. are to replace the existing wireless router with the TC. ie your option B.. but how to do this depends on the type of connection. Is it cable or adsl? Can you easily bridge the existing modem router.. if that is what it is?
Think carefully in the ideal world what would you like..
and what do you have..
We can probably suggest ways and means to fit what you like to what you have.. without introducing a stack of options that are doing your head in.

Can i connect my iMac to a mac mini (wirelessly) and control the mac mini display on my TV?

Can i connect my iMac to a mac mini (wirelessly) and control the mac mini display on my TV?

Look up "screen sharing" in help
You can control your mini (which I am assuming you are hooking to your TV) complete from your iMac.
After you set up screen sharing, you can go to the finder, under the "go" menu choose "Connect to server" and then browse. Choose your mac mini's name, and look for the "Screen Sharing" button.
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Sharing.
Select the Screen Sharing checkbox.
To specify who can share your screen, select one of the following:
All users:
Select this if you want to allow any user with a user account on your computer to share your screen.
Only these users:
Select this if you want to restrict screen sharing to specific users.Click Add at the bottom of the Users list and select a user from Users & Groups (accounts you have set up in Users & Groups preferences), Network Users (users on your network), or your Address Book. Or click New Person and enter a name and password to create a sharing account. Then select that user from the list, and then click Select.
Click Computer Settings and set the following options:
Anyone may request permission to control screen:
Select this to allow anyone on your network to request to share your screen.
VNC viewers may control screen with password:
Select this and enter a password that VNC viewer applications can enter in order to control your screen.It’s recommended that you not set a password if you only share this computer’s screen using the built-in screen sharing viewer in Mac OS X.

7410 All-in-1 "Can't Connect To Ntwk" when install post-moving from home ofc to work ofc wireless

Hi. I've had this 7410 printer a few years now (hand me down from family member). It has worked fine in my home (wireless router) the whole time.
Recently, I moved it to the work office (across town) and have spent TWO nights (4 hrs each night) AFTER WORK to try and get it to correctly set-up. It has never been this difficult with all the moves I've had from apartment to apartment and now to my home. This shouldn't be any different, right?!
This is where I'm stuck:
Setup Menu >> Network >> Wireless Setup Wizard ....yes, it finds the office network... I select it.... then, I enter the WEP key.... correctly have done it 30 times (spelled it correctly, caps sensitive, etc)... hit Done, and the answer after its search is "can not connect to network".
I've read on HP's website and my manual (over and over and over) how to self-correct it... that is why I'm here now!
Things I've done:
Setup Menu >> Network>> View Network Settings >>> Print Network Configuration Page.... it comes up with the IP, subnet and default gateway as 0.0.0.0
Setup Menu >> Network>> Restore Network Defaults.... no change in outcome
Unplugged and replugged printer.... no change in outcome
Unplugged and replugged modem and router (with the 30+ sec recommended wait before replug).... no change in outcome
I have checked the network strength via my personal laptop, my work laptop, my mobile devices... all say it is present and excellent.... yet not able to connect printer to it
I have checked the network via my work laptop, to see what is accessing it (can you overload a network?)... but it only has 6 items connected at this time (evening when no one here but me...2 printers already and 4 computers), which is even less than daytime access when we have all co-workers plugged into it also (healthcare facility... but still, always just 2 printers... THIS printer would be the 3rd)
Now, I ask you what is my next step?
PLEASE help soon, I need this printer to be up and working to help alleviate some office flow issues!!
I cannot keep spending my evenings reading all these bulletin posts, self-help FAQ's on the HP site without any good outcome for my scenario!!! I have other paperwork to be doing and this is keeping me from getting it done!
Thank you in advance!

Hello edPT2001.
Please, download and run the HP Print and Scan doctor from http://www.hp.com/go/tools
With this tool, you can see what channel is being used by the wireless router you're trying to connect your printer.
Run the tool and after the initial search for HP products, you might be able to go to Help menu - Show advanced info and then click the button Show wireless info. You will see a list of wireless networks detected by your computer and if you scroll to the right, you might be able to see the channel being used by the network. Find the network you're trying to connect your printer and let me know the channel number.
Cheers!!
