After a clean install (restored as a new iPhone) of iOS 5.1 on my iPhone 3GS it keeps asking me the wifi network password every time I want to connect. The system doesn't remember the password. The curious fact is that my iPad 2 isn't affected by this bug. It is on iOS 5.1 too but I simply upgraded it from 5.0.1 without a clean install. Resetting network settings doesn't make it to work, the same with an hard reset.
I'm not understanding how to find the wi-fi password. When it finds a network, it asks me to enter a password. How do I know what to type in?? I have searched online and the darn user guide and everything just says 'type the password in'. What password?! Where do I find this? In the alternative, if it doesn't find a network it says "choose a network" and then wants a name/security/password.
Is there a way to connect my iPhone 4s to my wifi network without the password? This is my home network but unfortunately it was setup years ago and I have no way of getting the password for it. I've been able to connect my laptop to it without the password by pushing the button on the netgear router but it does not work when I try with my phone. My laptop and desktop are both connected and have iTunes so I was hoping I could do it that way but I've had no luck. I've also had no luck resetting the router and I'd rather not buy a new one.
I entered a password for my wi-fi network into my iphone4 and can't remember it to enter it into other devices. Is there a way to see the password on the iPhone?
I have a new 5c iPhone but can not connect to my Wi-Fi Home Wireless Network as my new phone does not recognize my password. How can I change the password and move on?
I have a Nokia N95 and i got problem with wifi networks. I can join and surf on the internet, when im in unsecured router, but mine router is WPA and settings in N95 should be right. It is saying that I entered invalid router password or something like that.
new Torch is unable to associate with my work wifi network when it uses WEP password. If I change wifi network to WPA password, then it works (But I cannot change it because the network is unsing WDS and it isn't compatible with WPA).
My old BB Pearl 8120 works fine with same network using WEP password. Therefore, what's happenign with Torch wifi?. Is there any wifi upgrade for Torch? For your information, the wifi router is an SMC Barricade-N (SMCWBR14-N)
I have tried almost everything. I'm desesperate. Torch is giving connections problems also with my wifi home network and also with my bluetooth handfree car system. If there isn't a solution soon I will have to change it for another mobile.
Following some 3G/Edge issue I 've reset my network settingson the Iphone, but now my wifi password is rejected.
I've cut and pasted the PW using caps, but the iphone keeps saying it's incorrect. I'm using a Sagem Livebox 2 ( Orange, France) no pairing is necessary.
I have an iPhone 4S. I was required by my employer to download an app, RSA SecurID, for another level of security when working from home. After I did this, I noted that my visual voicemail was not available. After searching for answers, I reset the network settings. Visual voicemail came back just fine. Now the phone won't accept the correct password for my wifi. Funny thing is, though, that it does "see" the old network name, which incidentally, had the same password. The network name still showed up on the list, so I tried it and it connected. My MBP is connected to the network just fine. I have tried resetting the router, turning the phone off and on, turned wifi off and on in the General Settings. It just fails to connect.
Having bought an iphone (G3) and tried to connect to the network, it shows me the HUB No., which corresponds to the number on the back of my router.
It then asks me for a password. I assume this is the one also on the back of the router. However when I enter this I get a message 'Unable to connect to network'
Consequently if I use my phone to get to the internet, I am charged.
I've tried to put my router password but that doesn't work. I stand about two feet next to my router and it's only at two bars. My ipod, in the same place, has three and works perfectly. I've also tried to reset my router.
When i get to the wifi setup screen (no wifi available) it wont let me continue with setup without selecting a wifi network...there isnt one around so cannot continue with the setup, is there no way around this ?
I'm a new iPhone operator and will never consider another smartphone!
My question is what is appropriate operation of 3G, wifi and edge network?
I get 3G in my area but I have been doing some research and as a result always keep edge on? That it's good for phone usage and text type applications like gmail chat and email? That if you are wanting to surf the Internet 3g and wifi is faster?
Basically the research that I have found is to keep edge on at all times and use 3g or wifi if you want faster results. Also keeping iPhone on edge network uses less battery?
Okay so there's this WiFi network at school. It is unsecured, and my teacher always connects to it. On my iPhone 3G it never shows up, though after I scan for networks using Stumbler (Stumbler says it's not hidden btw) it appears in the settings. So I click on it and it says "Cannot connect" (or something along those lines) and after the third try it disappears again. I tried using SpoofMAC to spoof my mac address to 11:11:11:11:11 and that didn't work.
My phone has been working perfectly till today, for some reason, I cannot get on online using the att network. I can have full bars and a 3g signal and still cannot get on. I can get on wifi with no problem. Anyone know what could have happened. My wifes phone is also doing the same thing. We are running the 4.3.5
I tried to update and restore the phone but it will not do it.
Edit: my mother in law just came by and I got on her iphone 3gs, her phone is doing the same thing. Att says there is no problem with their network.
I cannot connect to my wi-fi network. The phone finds it but when I choose it, it simply tells me that it is unable to join the network. I am thinking it is a password issue but the phone never asks me for my password. The wi-fi is locked so it needs a password. I do not have this problem with my laptop or my Ipad so I know the wi-fi network is working correctly. I just can't figure out how to get the phone to ask me for my password. It should do it without any prompting, but for whatever reason it does not.
IPhone won't connect to a wifi network, just get a message saying it won't connect to the network (it doesn't give me a message that I've got the password wrong). Other devices do join the network, What should I do to try to resolve it?
I have a 4s and it was dropped since then it will not connect to AT&T network or wifi. I have tried resetting my network and factory settings no luck. Any other possibilities I could try?
I upgraded my iphone 4S to 5.1.1 yesterday, and it cannot find any wifi network after that. It is not that it cannot join in any network, but it cannot *FIND* any wifi network. I reset the network settings, restarted the device, and it does not work. I could still use the 4G network.
I have set up my new iphone but it won't connect with any wifi network. I have reset the phone and tried typing the password more slowley but nothing is working.
my iphone 4s can not scan any wifi network, i tried everything but still can not scan any wifi connection even though our wifi is working properly in our mac book and ipad.
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?
We have 2 WiFi networks. One is for guests and the other is for our own use. Our iDevices always auto-pick the guest network instead of the one we prefer. The only thing that works is to "forget" the guest network but we'd rather not have to do that. In OSX you can drag-order the WiFi networks in Network Prefs into a preferred order. Is there a way to do the same in iOS?
