Q: Wi-Fi Connected, but no internet access

Able to see/authenticate and connect to network at work which is using WPA-PSK. iPad shows connected/steady connection and has been assigned IP address. However, unable to connect to Internet, acts like not actually connected to internet. Tried my iPhone and it exhibits the same issue.

Saw a few like issues posted here, but indicated fixes did not work, i.e., reboot router and iPad.

Thanks

    AnatS ... your solution worked for me, too.

     

    Out of the blue today, my iPad just stopped connecting to our Wifi.  It had something similar to 10.1.10.2 (not exact) in the IP Address, Router and DNS fields.  The Search Domains field had also been wiped clean.

     

    I'm not sure what caused this, but after I entered everything in under the Static settings (used what I saw on my iPhone), all of the DHCP settings returned to normal, and it seems to be working fine now.

     

    The only thing that I did this morning that could have affected the iPad was to run some software updates for several apps -- nothing to do w/ iOS, on the surface, but something apparently screwed it up anyway.

     

     

    ADDENDUM: I was playing around w/ it, and when I switched back to DHCP, all of the settings were changed -- which I should have expected, duh.  Don't be like me.  Just leave it on Static.

     

    Thanks, AnatS!

    I had a similar issue on my macbook pro running 10.8.4

    The way I resolved it after a few hours of trying everything else I read on this forum is I opened Terminal and typed in both these commands: This reset my DNS settings

     

    sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist

    sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist

    I had this problem on my brand new iPad air. What turned out to be the cause of the problem for me was that the router had Wifi Protected Setup enabled. Turning that off fixed the problem.

     

    Wifi Protected Setup is supposed to work with devices that support connecting with a pin number set by the router. In my experience this has been the cause of two iPads not being able to connect to the internet through the router.

     

    Hope this helps.

    What worked for me was changing the router security protocol from wpa2 to wpa. Some apple devices seem to have issues with wpa2.

    Hi,

     

    I am having a strange problem regarding wi-fi access with my iPad4. Once my ipad goes into sleep mode then the signal drops. If I am right beside the wi-fi modem then it can reconnect with no issues.  However, if I am in the next room, even though I can see the network and it has a full signal, I cannot connect.  I get prompted for a username and password (it doesn't connect when I input them) or I get a message saying "unable to connect". 

     

    I have reset the modem multiple times. When I check the set-up of my modem I can see that the iPad is visible and has been assigned and IP address. I have reset the network settings on the iPad multiple times as well.  I have also tried changing the DNS settings and turning off proxy. Nothing seems to work.

     

    This problem has only started recently. Anybody got any suggestions as to how I can solve this?

     

    Thanks

    Kevin
