Try remove the password on D-Link router, put it on open conditions (no security enabled).It should work. If still won't connect, try using laptop or any wireless device to connect to router(without password), if connect, then there's something wrong with your Ipod.
1. Open a browser on a computer connected to the router. 2. Access the router using http://www.routerlogin.com or http://192.168.1.1 3. Username is admin and password is password 4. Click on Wireless settings in the left hand side menu. 5. Under security option select WEP and in key1 type 9876543210 click Apply.
Scan for the wireless network on the Itouch and connect to the network using the password as set above.
netgear support software could be bad. The ipod might not be able to read signal. umm try restoring the ipod. then plug it to your computer let it recognize it and then before you add ANYTHING to it, go straight to the setting and put in the router number and everythign and see if it works. I know people hate it but restoring it usually works. Its just simple small virus's that hit your ipod through songs and stuff and it eventually makes everything stop working. So get back at me let me know if restoring it worked.
Hi,
I want to tell you that there might be two problems for your concern.
1. Your router is not working properly
2. Your Ipod Touch is not working properly
But it might be possible that both devices working fine just the compatibility issue.
First of all i can suggest you that you can upgrade the firmware for your router.
Then you can reconfigure your wireless setting on your router.
Then tried to put static ip on your ipod touch in the network setting option
IP address: 192.168.0.15
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.0.1
Primary DNS: 192.168.0.1
Secondary DNS: 4.2.2.2
Then tried again to connect wirelessly with your ipod touch make sure you dont required to add mac address for you ipod touch and also you can click on the option called "Wireless Access Point"
Then you can see the option " Turn Access Control On" you can uncheck this option.
Try again i believe that will resolve your concern.
the password to your router? default is admin:password
If you've changed it, you may have to reset the router. This can be done by using a paperclip inserted into the reset hole on the back of the router, and starting over!
All wireless routers do not accept unencrypted communications. Have the Macs in either/both cases either been moved from an environment requiring encryption to one not requiring encryption or requiring encryption with a different key. This also occurs when moving from a non-encrypted environment to an encrypted environment. Another possibility is that the wireless router in the new location does not broadcast it's SSID (name) and requires knowledge and entry of its name for access generally along with an encryption key. The person that setup the wireless router should be able to answer these questions and assist with the setup of the Mac's wireless adapter. Research would need to be made and I do not have a current Mac to test with to walk through the current process however this should provide the information for a knowledgeable Mac person to interface with person that configured the router or has the router configuration information to complete the changes necessary to allow access. If a short term solution is required and wired connections are possible (wired ethernet ports exist on both the router and the computer) using a wired connection to the router can be utilized to avoid the whole wireless configuration issue.
