Q: My iPod touch won't connect anymore to my house wifi? My laptop connects fine.

Does the iPod connect to other networks?

Does the iPod see the network?

Any error messages?

Do other devices now connect?

Did the iPod connect before?

Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 

- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost

Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

- Power off and then back on the router

- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network

- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points

- Restore from backup. See:

iOS: How to back up

- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar

Yes.

If I Restore to Factory Settings will I lose everything on my Ipod???

Try backup first

As I asked in my first reply:

Does the iPod connect to other networks?

Does the iPod see the network?

Any error messages?

Since it connects to other networks and you restored the iPod that indicates a problem with your network. Did you do everything here:

- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

Also try changing the security on the router, including using no security as a test.

Have you tried power cycling your equipment? Try unplugging your router AND modem and wait at least 30 seconds.

I have been having the same problem as everyone else with my ipod and my  iphone unable to connect to my wireless router. After searching and  trying every response I finally called my cable company a.k.a The Devil  a.k.a Time Warner Cable. In less than 5 minutes the online support tech  went via the internet into my router and changed the settings so now I  can connect. He said it was a common problem with Apple products that  they needed a different security setting to connect to the router. I  have a Time Warner wireless router and I can't say this will work for  everyone but you might try calling your ISP company and explain to them  what's going on. They have probably run into it before and if you get a  good tech (like I did luckily) they may be able to fix it quickly.

Thanks lllaass, it worked!

I was using the wifi at my school when i was researching for a project, when all of a sudden it stopped working. (this was on april 21.) I havent been able to connect since. Does anyone know what to do?
