    Delete the password from Keychain Access (Applications/Utilities). While there, Keychain Access menu First Aid.

    Can you connect to the Internet using an Ethernet cord?

    HI Eric thank you for your reply.

    I Can connect with an ethernet cable.

    I deleted the drive and Reinstalled snow leopard but still same problem. I though once you delete and reinstall there is no password in the keychain.

    After I reinstalled snow leopard I tried to update to El Capitan thinking it would solve the problem but 10 mins before the installation finished the installation log came up with a list showing a lot of errors/crashes .. and could not carry on with the installation.

    I Tried to do the same thing before deleting the drive but I had the same problem. So I thought  if I deleted everything and I install snow leopard first would solve the problem.. Might have to go to the Genius Bar
