Wirelessly Connected to Home Hub 3, Cannot Get Int...

Hello,
BT Infinity installed on 6th June Home Hub 3 (type B). Previously on BT Broadband.
One laptop computer connects to the hub but will not connect to the Internet wirelessly (connects wired). Running Windows 7. Cannot surf, Skype.
Have been on to tech support (for hours!) they tried all the usual (change channel, update drivers, took control of laptop remotely, everything possible done).
Still not working, although did get a very brief sporadic connection.
Computer in question (Samsung Netbook, "n" connection) worked perfectly on old BT Broadband, works out of the house on wifi connections.
Has anyone had this problem? Are there any solutions?
Thanks.

Hi guys you most likely have this solved already but just incase I have recently encountered the same problem with my 'netbook'
I have tried everything from installing new drivers to creating a 'disable' registry key for IPV6 .. The way I solved this and hope it works for you was...
Go to you your sharing point and open wireless network connection.
Click properties
In the dialogue box uncheck 'internet protocol version 6 (tcp/ipv6)
Then above it click 'configure'
Another dialogue box will open informing you that you have made changes.
Click 'yes'
This will open up in my case 'RealTek' driver.
Click on 'advanced' tab
'Wireless mode'
Go to right hand side of dialogue box and select 'value' drop down box
Select 'IEEE 802.11b/g'
These deselects the 'n' router aspect as I believe our network adapters can't function with this.
Now click 'ok'
Let computer re-connect to router.
Now try opening web pages.
Problem solved (",)
Hope this helps guys.
If you want to disable the IPV6 through registry I will put up details on how to do this but I believe this should suffice.

I am trying to connect my new ipad to my BT Home Hub but keep getting a message saying that I am unable to join the Home Hub network. Any advice?

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

U really need to call Apple support ,because only they can help you , or go the store but make sure u have an appointment ,they are always a mob scene

Ever since I received my Macbook Pro in July 2011 I've had issues with my wireless connection at home. After software updates, Apple support suggested I reboot my router which works. But now I have to do it every other day. ????

If your using WEP encryption yes, Apple has discontinued that becaues it's worthless. WEP (and WPA) is cracked so encryption makes no sense.
Get a new Wireless N router, set it up with WPA2 (AES) Personal and two different 20+ randon letter/numbersymbol character passwords
One for Admin access only of the router, keep this on paper off all comptuers in a safe someplace.
One for entering into devices, computers etc for Internet Access Only.
You need the long and random password to defeat brute force attacks by GPU software that the hackers have now.
Also if you give out the password to another, they can't hack the network with the guest access password.
Computers remember the internet password, so anyone with access to your machines or network will have the password.
Since you have another Admin only password, they can't hack in. got it?
You don't need "Invisible" or "MAC Address filtering" that's a waste of time as hackers can sniff a network and causes issues getting on the network.
Good luck.

My iphone has lost connection to the server; I cannot get e-mails.

My iphone has lost connection to the server; I cannot get e-mails. What can I do to fix that?

I recently put on a PowerPoint presentation at DU, in Denver Colorado; signed on as DU guest to access Internet link. SInce then I haven't been able to get e-mail on my Iphone - Cannot Get Mail, Server Stopped Responding. I tried all previous suggestions, such as rebooting phone, updating software etc. I went to MacBook Pro and tried logging on to yahoo e-mail. Apparently there was a security risk to my e-mail account so Yahoo locked up my account. I reset my password, it was verified through text message, and Voila it worked. Don't forget you also have to change this on your Iphone: go into settings; Mail, Contacts, Calendars; click on your e-mail browser, then account and enter your new password, click done and it will verify on you phone as well. Hope this helps!!!

I have a first gen iPad, and it will randomly go home from the Internet when I don't press any button. I have a wireless connection at home. Is this a known bug? What can I do?

You maybe running low on memory since you are using the original iPad with iOS 5.1.1 and the iPad is crashing. This may help and it certainly won't hurt.
Quit all apps completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
Do this before you launch Safari again. Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data. You don't have to clear the history.

Connecting wirelessly to BT Home Hub

Although I am able to use broadband on my laptop, I cannot 'see' my Home hub from my PC , which is sitting next to the laptop. When using the control panel I get the message 'Connected with limited access' and the signal strength is showing as 'Fair' or sometimes 'Good.’ I can also 'see' other local home hubs from the PC

Connecting with a Wireless Printer on Home Hub 3.

How do I get a XP Notebook to connect with the HP Photosmart 6510 connected wirelessly to my BT Home Hub 3.
My Network Places shows BT Home Hub 3.
Double click on HH3 and scrolling down to My Home Network.
You can see HPFE0AAB under wireless network, which is the HP Photosmart 6510.
According to the Photosmart it’s url is 192.168.7.71 and it is correctly connected to the hub.
The XP Notebook does have the relevant basic printing drivers installed for the Photosmart.
Perhaps I should add that I gave up trying to connect the Windows 8 Desktop to the printer wirelessly and used a USB instead. I’m not sure if the problem is with the set up of the Notebook or the Hub. I have tried turning off firewalls which so far seems to make no difference. I am running MSE on the Notebook and Defender on the Desk Top.
I've tried so many approaches I'mgoing round in circles.
Solved!

Here are the GENERAL steps on how to add a wireless printer on your wireless network.
As you have said that it is already connected and visible to the network it is a case of checking the settings below then if ok go to “adding printer to your networked computer” section
The wireless printer must have a static (i.e., manual) IP address assigned to it from your network IP address range. It cannot be DHCP enabled, otherwise every time DHCP assigns a new address, your printer port will stop working.
How to set a manual IP address on your printer:
When the printer is connected to the network the first time, the router will assign an IP address to it. To get the IP address that the printer was assigned, find the printer on your network and right click on it. It will bring up a properties box. The IP address for the printer will be found somewhere in there.
Using an Internet browser, type the IP address of the printer into the address line of the browser and press enter. It should bring up a printer configuration window.
Now, since each printer is different, I can't give you the exact steps, HOWEVER, here's what you are looking for:
Find a Network - TCP/IP configuration menu. Somewhere in that menu, it will give you the choice of setting a manual or static IP address versus a DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) assigned address.
You want to manually set the IP address to the address given on the configuration page. This would normally be 192.168.1.xx. The subnet mask will normally be 255.255.255.0 and the gateway will normally be the IP of the router, usually 192.168.1.254
Once the IP address is assigned permanently to the printer as a static address, you are now ready to add the printer to each computer on your network.
Add the Printer to Your Networked Computers
In Windows XP, follow these steps to add the wireless printer to your computer:
Go to Start, Printers and Faxes.
Double click on Add Printer
Click Next.
On the Local or Network Printer dialog box, choose Local Printer and UNCHECK the box that says "Automatically detect" the printer. Click Next.
On the Select a Printer Port window, choose to Create a New Port, and then under Type of Port, choose Standard TCP/IP port. Click Next.
Make sure the printer is On and Ready, and connected to the network. Click Next.
Type in the static IP address of the printer that you set in the steps above. Click Next.
It will then try to connect to that IP address. It you typed it wrong, or the printer is off, it will come back and give you an error.
If all is well, it should then ask you for the printer driver. Either set it to find the driver that you have previously installed or insert the CD for the printer, and find the Windows XP version of the driver.
Then choose the driver you want to install.
Click Next. It will install the driver and ask you to name the printer.
When it is done, click Finish. (You can choose to print a test page if you want).
Hope this helps.

Connecting time capsule wirelessly to BT home hub

Help unable to set up time capsule to wirelessly join my BT home hub (original white home hub for use in UK). Goes through all the stages then when restarts can't find airport device. Took it to local genius bar and worked fine there. Is this a problem peculiar to home hubs?

ESM@ESM, welcome to the discussion area!
In order to "Join a wireless network", you need to know the exact type of wireless security that your BT Home Hub is using, so you can provide those settings to the Time Capsule. It cannot join your network unless you have the correct settings.
It would be much easier to configure your Time Capsule to connect to your Home Hub using an ethernet cable. This will still allow you to use your Home Hub wireless network for backups, and you'll also have the option to use ethernet for backups, which will allow you to backup much more quickly. Can you consider that option?

Cannot connect to Home Hub Manager

Cannot connect since I renamed my 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz channels.
I used a space and bracket which I don't think works - i.e. BTHomeHub (2.4GHz)
However I cannot now access the Home Hub Manager to rename the networks.
I have tried to access via:
api.home
192.168.1.154
bthomehub.home

I suggest you try a factory reset of the hub
