Unable to connect to valid WiFi
This is really most annoying. I have Airport Extreme built in to my (2009) Mac Pro and it has always served me well.
This past month I have been unable to connect my iPhone 4 or iPad 3 to the WiFi home network. No problem connecting with my MacBook Pro. All three devices sitting next to each other and each time I try the iPhone or the iPad it says "unable to connect to the *** network. Dismiss".
So I went into system prefernces, shut off internet sharing, created a new network with new password, restarted sharing. The MacBook found the new network, asked for the new password, and connected just fine.
The iPhone and the iPad both gave the same error of unable to connect and dismiss.
Reading over the "can't connect to WiFi" faqs, I reset the network settings on both the iPhone and the iPad, both find the new network, ask for the password and got the same "unable to connect... dismiss" error message.
I do not have the Firewall protection enabled on the Mac Pro.
A month ago I had no problem connecting all three devices to the WiFi network. Now only the MacBook Pro connects. Suggestions/answers would be appreciated.
