IPhone :: Can't Connect To Wifi, Can Connect To Others
May 28, 2012
All devices surfing wirelessly on Airport Express.Replaced Airport Express with Time Capsule.Problem: Wife's iPhone4 (5.1.1) can not surf on wifi provided by my time capsule. All my other devices (iMac, Mac Air, iPad and my iPhone) can. Wife's iPhone can surf on an unsecure network somewhere nearby in my apartment complex. (Which to me, rules out a hardware problem).
Steps taken: Tapped iPhone wifi On/Off multiple times with no change. "Forget this network" multiple times with no change. Reset iPhone Network Settings multiple times with no change. Restored iPhone using iTunes as New iPhone once with no change. (Since doing that, I have restored with back up of iPhone settings and data.) Powered Time Capsule on/off several times with no change. Turned wireless security off with no change. Security is back on. It is WPA 2 Personal with a lengthy password. I'm not getting the "incorrect password" msg. Renewed lease multiple times with no change.
Other indications: 3G is in upper left. Status wheel is spinning next to my network's name. On the initial "Settings" window, my network name is shown (as if it were connected. But tapping it and going to the "wifi networks" window shows the list of available networks with the status wheel spinning next to mine.) Tapping the blue arrow on my network name leads to the window that has "forget this network" at the top, and a list of blank fields: IP address, subnet mask, router and so on. DHCP is chosen, HTTP proxy is OFF. Sometimes, the top two fields (ip address and subnet mask) have values filled in, but the rest of the fields don't.
On my Time Capsule, as seen via Airport Utility (V5.5.3), 3 devices are shown as connected. Clicking this provides a listing. My wife's iPhone wi-fi address is listed. It's "rate" however is 1. My imac is 216 and my iphone is 65. BTW, iOS devices drop off the list when they go to sleep. No big deal there.
Back to Airport Utility, in the summary tab... status is normal, version is 7.6.1, wireless mode is "create a wireless network", security is "wpa/wpa2 personal", channel is 149 auto and 1 auto (I tried changing 1 to 11 with no change), connect using "ethernet" and finally my IP address begings with 76. 76.xxx.xxx.xxx
Moving to the "Wireless" tab of Airport utility... wireless mode is "create a wireless network", radio mode is auto, radio ch. selection is auto, wireless security is wpa/wpa2 personal, "remember password in keychain" is checked. Now Clicking on the "wireless network options" button..... 5ghz is not checked, country is USA, multicast rate is "low", t-mit power is "100%", WPA group key timeout is 1 day (it used to be 1 hour but this has made no change in the problem), "use wide channels" is not checked, "create a closed network" is not checked.
MAC access control is not enabled. But it was enabled previously and I added my devices by their Wi-Fi addresses one at a time until i decided to turn it off due to this problem. this resulted in no change with the problem.
Personally, I feel the prob lies with the DHCP and ip address and related fields, but I don't know enough about what their values should be in relation to my other devices to alter them on my own.
Did the update and now my iphone 4s wifi does not connect to my home wifi. It just sits there with the little circle going round and round. My ipad3 updated and works fine...
I got an iphone 4 yesterday and i am having trouble finding wifi spots.i went to a shopping center today and it had around 10 different wifi spots and i could only see one.
my 3 other friends has iphones (two have 3gs on has 4) and they could see and connect to them all fine. this is happening everywherealso i cant even see my home network unless i am standing right next to the router where as the other iphones can pick it up from upstairs or in the garden.is there anything i can do to change this like restoring or anything else? or is it faulty?
Cannot connect to Wi-Fi any longer. The networks are strong and selected, but the phone continues to use 4G. This is the case in my house, someone else's house and at a major university. My iPad and Mac Air are having no trouble. I can use the university VPN at the university, but even that kicks out at random.
I have an Time Capsula working as the router. The Macs, PCs, Printer and iPads connects fine. It is the iPhone the wont connect. It has been like this for a while, but I thought it was going to fix itself.
why wont my iphone connect to wifi?.. i have already reset my network settings and made sure that i am entering the right password. my ipod touch connect just fine but my iphone wont. even my roomates iphone will connect.
found my old i phone it was not working just cam up with apple sigh taken it to phone man he got it all working but now is saying no celliar network to connect to wifi .and will not connect to my sky wifi but my other iphones 3S AND 4S WILL
I'm trying to use an app that transfers files to the iphone via Wifi.Access is by entering the iphone's IP address and port into a web browser.I've seen quite a few apps that use this method, so it seems pretty standard.I've also used this method myself quite a while ago, but now can't seem to get it working. When I enter the iphone's IP address into the web browser, it just times out.Tried pinging the IP address from MSDOS from PC and get "Destination host unreachable."
Packets sent = 4, received = 4, lost = 0 (0% loss)
PC can't connect to iphone at all.iphone is connected to Wifi okay and can access internet with no problems.Both PC and iphone are on same domain and subnet, ie. both 192.168.1.XX and 255.255.255.0.Tried disabling all firewalls and AV programs, Router sees connection of both PC and iphone with no problems.So both PC and iphone are on the same network and can connect to internet fine but can't connect to each other.iphone model is a 3G running OS 4.2.1, which is the latest version that my phone can use.
My phone stopped connecting to wifi. My husband has the same phone and his is working. It keeps spinning the "circle" and won't get a "check mark" to show it is connected
My phone will not let me connect to wifi. It was working properly this morning. I left for about three hours and came back and would not reconnect. I have tried re setting all wifi setting but nothing has worked. What can i do?
at my work i usually get wifi on my iphone until today. when i try to go to webpage it says safari can not open the page. you are not connected to internet. but when i turned off the wifi i can go to website.i reset the network and then typed the wifi password. but issues remained the same.
Yesterday my I phone 4S would not connect to my wi fi at home with the message check network connection, all other devices in the house work fine, only my I phone hasthe problem.I went to work and it worked without a problem but since returning home it still wont work.As far as I know I have not made any changes to my phone.
hey guys i got a new iphone 4s i wanted to conect it to my home wifi but i accidently tipped the password 3or4 times wrong so now the problem is that when i try to acces my wifi it just doesent work it says error i cant even try to put the password in.
I'm having some touble when I'm trying to connect my iPhone 4s to my Wi-Fi at home. I beilive the problem is occurring because of my security settings. My router is set to WEP - Key 2, instead of default Key 1. So my problem is finding out how to cofigure the iPhone to set Key 2 before entering the password?
I restarted my iPhone and when I turned it back on I put in my language and location. When it came to the WiFi my WiFi connection didn't come up so I inserted the details manually. For a while it kept saying it wasn't able to connect and I left it for a while. When I tried again the bars came up and then a screen came up telling me to contact customer care. Contacting customer care ages ago and they told me that they weren't able to do anything about it. Now my gaurantee is up and I had my phone insured and they told me that its something to do with the software and its a common problem in iPhone's. I get the feeling Apple will just charge me or tell me that can't fix it due to guarantee ran out Jan 14.Â
I recently installed a new wifi system, and i connected to it before, but out of the blue I couldn't connect to it anymore. I've tried resetting my network setting, tried unplugging my wifi; waiting 30 seconds then plugging it back in, and my other members of my house have different phones and can connect to the wifi, I can connect to other wifi. I don't know what happened, I'm so confused.
Phone was working fine, got on the plane, put it in airplane mode then once I got off the plane and tuned airplane mode off my phone would not connect to 3G or wifi! I got some message saying my phone rejected California's service. It will send messages (not iMessage) and will make calls, but my twitter, group me and safari (as well as everything else) do not work
