Restart your router by removing all power from it for about 15 seconds.


Then explain what you mean by devices will not connect, and what Apple devices specifically. Do you mean you get a wrong password message? Or some other indication?


Does your router have MAC filtering (aka Access Control) enabled? Are your Apple device Wi-Fi address in the “allowed” list if it is?


And has it ever worked?
