IPhone :: 3GS Won't Connect To Airport Express Network Despite Other 3GS And 4S Connecting Fine
Jun 16, 2012
We have a household with 3 iPhone 3GS, 1 iPhone 4S, iPad, MacBook, 3 Windows PCs. All can usually connect to the Airport Express WiFi network. However recently one iPhone 3GS phone stoped being able to connect to the Airport Express network. We tried resetting the iPhone 3GS to factory settings and this did not fix the issue. We eventually had the phone replaced under the insurance I have with our cellular provider.
Now the same iPhone has just started doing exactly the same thing again. The symptoms are that the iPhone 3GS, sees the Airport Express network, it requests the password. The user enters the password and the little radial spoked wheel rotates endlessly and the iPhone 3GS does not connect to the network. Now the WiFi IS working as I have a 3G/WiFi bridge on test called a WiBE and the phone in question CAN connect to this using WPA/WPA2.
I have rebooted the Airport Extreme and the Airport Express network extenders several times as well as the phone, but it does not make any difference. This iPhone 3GS does not like the Airport Extreme network. I cannot believe I have a second faulty handset weeks after we had it replaced. Anyway it is not faulty as it successfully connects to a different WiFi network without difficulty.

I'm trying to connect to an Airport base station that has a 6-letter password, but my BlackBerry insists that it must have 6 or 10 digit hexadecimal password or something like that, and won't accept when I enter the correct password—it won't even try to connect! Is it me or is this a ludicrous problem? I've searched everywhere and can't find a solution. Changing the base station password is not an option because it's shared by a lot of people.

I just bought an ATRIX 2 at end of October and have spent days trying to make WIFI connection work.I could get to internet via cellular 3/4 G but although the phone would show the WIFI network and know it was there it wouldn't connect.It would try and then say "Disconnected".Finally, through reading tons of blog entries on different sites, I pieced together a solution I wanted to pass on to others.I have an Airport Extreme router.It was necessary to enter the MAC Address from my phone into Airports setup using Airport Utility. Then I also had to explicitly choose a Radio Mode that did NOT include the "N" option. Most options are hidden (for some bizarre unkown reason) so when clicking on the Radio Mode field in Airport Utility Wireless Section, hold down the "Option" key (at least on MacBook...maybe Control on Windows, but then you prob don't have an Airport router).This brings up a bunch of Radio options not shown by default.Choose one with no "N". Then be sure the Enable Auto IP" is checked "ON" under the Wireless Settings/Advanced section.Once this was done, have full strength connection and blazing fast.

I have one phone that I cannot sync with BES Express.I have 20 other phones that are working fine with it and syncing properly..I have verifed that all permissions are proper and are the same as the other phones that are working properly.The issue that is happening is that when I try to activate the phoen through Enterprise Activation the activation email sits in the user's Outlook and is not processed.After lengthy discussions with my cell phone provider they believe the issue is a RIM issue.

I have a Linxys router that works fine with my PC, Xbox, ipad, google chrome and Television. For some reason mine and my wife's iphone 4s iOS 7.1.1 will not connect all of the time. It either will tell me, "unable to connect" or it will connect to the wifi but internet will not work on the phones. This always happens in the evening. The phones will work sometimes during the day. I have logged into the router and there are no other devices connected to the wireless other than the ones that I have in my house. I also have a "guest network" that has always been turned off. All of my other devices always work while the iphones won't connect.Â

My iPhone 4s cannot connect to ANY WiFi network. My ipad, Mac Book Pro all do without any issues, both at home and the office. I've reset all my settings and even reset my phone to factory settings. Iit still won't connect, just a constant spinning wheel looking for a network. Is this something ISO 6 will fix?

I upgraded my iPhone 4S to iOS 5.1.1 and after this I'm undable to connect to any 2G/3G networks, which had worked fine before the upgrade. I tried Network settings reset, disabling and enabling of 3G/Cellular network e.t.c. Also put in flight mode and turned back. Restarted the phone, reset the phone, e.t.c. No options seems to be working out...!!!
Can some one throw light on the same? Or is Apple working on putting a fix to this issue? How can I downgrade the iOS 5.1?
Thanks,
Youayshu

I bought this iphone 5 six months ago and have a pay as you go plan with Kolbi I.C.E (a local provider.) Everything worked fine, until last week I was talking on my phone all morning, and then I shut it off to charge it and when I turned it back on I couldn't connect to the cellular network. Â
Since then, I have tried LITERALLY everything I can find on the internet to make it work again: toggling airplane mode, restart, refresh network settings, restore to factory, taking out the sim card and putting it back in again, EVERYTHING. And not for one single second have I been able to access the cellular network again. Â
I tried putting my simcard in my friend's identical iphone 5 and it worked just fine, leading me to believe the problem is with my iphone in particular-- but why would it just STOP connecting all of a sudden, for no reason???Â

iPhone 5, iOS 7.1.1, factory unlocked

I have an older Airport Extreme 802.11n, and have been quite happy with it. I just purchased an iPhone 5C, (refurbed from AT&T) and I've noticed I get poor WiFi reception on the porch. This is only about 38 feet away from the base station, although it is on the other side of the aluminum screen door. I still show two out of three bars, but web pages are very laggy compared to being in the same room as the router, and sometimes refuse to load.   My 2011 MBP doesn't have nearly as many problems.Â
I assume part of this is simply the fact that there's a much smaller antenna in my iPhone compared to a 17" MBP, but I'm wondering if I should be looking at the settings of my Airport; perhaps a better setup would work with the reception on my 5C.Â
I can't remember how or why I arrived at the settings I have now - it's been a while since I touched things. Â
Right now, under the "radio mode" drop down in the Airport Utility, (6.3.1) it's shows "802.11n only - (5Ghz) - 802.11b/g/n" with the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz channels set to "automatic".  The drop-downs are a little confusing, as I assume the Airport is still broadcasting in the 2.4GHz spectrum, as my first gen (2006, Core Duo) MacBook could still connect, and I don't believe it has a 5Ghz connection. Â

i think i screwed up today as i forgot to put my new iphone 4 on the xray trey when i had to go through a metal detector at the airport. since i am very careful about my new device im afraid the magnets may have damage my phone. is it possible that they did? i havent discovered anything yet but i have this feeling it got slower and the camera quality has worsened.

I baught the phones used from ebay. One of the phones is working fine.The other phone is not connecting to the 3G network. It is not even showing the 3G network when I manually search networks. I want it to connect to the 3G network because WIND only uses 3G.
Both are running the same( latest )OS version. I have switched sim cards(to no avail) and I have tried to restore it to factory settings using the wipe feature in the security settings(nothing)Both phones are next to each other. One is showing 3G the other is showing 2G (same carrier).
