I have ATT Uverse internet/router/wifi in my small apartment. Recently only my MacBook has stopped connecting. The network shows in network connections, but does not allow for connection at all. My iMac, iPhone, iPad, work laptop etc... all connect just fine, but only this MacBook has started having issues. Any suggestions to troubleshoot? Clear network settings and start over? Thanks!
It's a LONG TIME known problem with Some routers including specifically AT&T Uverse, which there building out here and dropped by toget some pre-orders in last week - But I digress.
So, I'd do some simple things first, which could resolve it before getting deeper. Try turning off your firewall on the laptop, then connect, then turn it back on... I've experienced this for 6 weeks and tried all contortions while visiting family and it turns out there was a problem between router wall and MacBook which didn't play well together on the playground.
I'd search for solutions. Some of them have been simply as to use a Google DNS - SO I'd TRY THAT now,

You might try holding option button plus the wifi signal symbol at top of desktop: then click on open wireless diagnostic & run;
It can also be as simple and going to a manual designated DHCP address:
Or there's another try of a network change that can work;
You can try also to rename two broadcast radio network names differently and connect only one a time.
Others involve resetting some config settings either through the browser and or on system preferences... save this for later.
Have done all that. Currently every device except this one works just fine. We've rebooted the computer many times and reset the router many times.
Try rebooting your router and your mac.
