    Wifi Issue?

    My wife and I are keen on browsing, checking email, and such using our wifi connection at home to our iPads. Tonight our iPads (both) just won't connect. Any attempt to load anything just times out, and yet here I am typing away on the Internet connection via a desktop. So is the router no longer sending out the desired signal? How could I tell?

    Have you tried restarting both your modem and router.

        And yea reboot..

        is the desktop hard wired?

        What kind of router? I have a couple linksuys that had to be constanly rebooted..

        look up WWDRT and see if your router is compatible.. then fix it.

          Sounds like an issue, just give me your wifi password and your CC number and I'll take care of the rest.



          Seriously, sounds like you need to forget and rejoin. It's happened before with my xfinity stuff. If that doesn't work, sue!

            3...did the forget network thing - nada
            4...turned off router again, did the reset network settings, and turned on router first and then reset the settings and it came back - finally....WTF

                Often the order of what you reboot makes the difference. You normally would want to power on the main connection first waiting until it is fully up then your wireless router until it is fully up then retry to connect any wireless devices.

                  Could also try changing the channel that your wireless router is operating on .. maybe something new is interfering

                  What kind of router?
