    Hmmm, is Network set to using DHCP?

     

    Go to System Preferences

     

    Click Network

     

    Highlight AirPort and click Configure...

     

    Choose “By default, join: Preferred networks”

     

    Select your access point and Remove your access point with the minus button.

     

    Launch your keychain access in Utilities and delete your access point keychain entry.

     

    Reboot

     

    Go back to the “By default, join:” page and click the plus this time to add your access point. Enter the correct password, save, reboot.

     

    Instead of joining your network from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed
