Hi
It's been a long time since I was last here and seek some help for a friend on this issue.
I was wondering if any of you have the same problem as my friend is experiencing with WiFi connection problem on apple products.
He bought an Asus EA-N66 to expend the internet signal in his house, and the N66 works fine on other devices that is not produced by Apple (and a big laugh from be because I'm not an fan of Apple 😛 ).
Does anyone know about any suggestions on how to fix this or experiencing the same issue?
This is the WiFi adapter I'm talking about: http://www.asus.com/Networks/Wireless_Adapters/EAN66/
Latest firmware is installed on this product, and he is still having issues with the connections.
Please excuse me for my english since this is not my native language.
(and if this is the wrong thread, please move it to the right one) 🙂
Best regards
Stian André 🙂

They SHOULD work with essentially any router so I would tend to assume that there's probably something wrong with the way he is configuring his Apple devices that is causing the problem. At least at the moment, it seems more likely that since the Windows devices work, it's just that maybe he's not as familiar with how to configure networking on iOS, or maybe the password isn't being entered right, the encryption isn't set properly, something along those lines. Maybe have him go back and set the password on the router to something very simple, just for testing purposes naturally, and then try connecting the iPad or whatever.

Hmm, he can connect his Apple devices on his router. But not on Asus EA-N66 3-in-1 AP/Wi-Fi Bridge/ Range Extender.
The setup on that device is set as range extender so he could get better signals on from the ruter. But when he is close to the router he can access internet without any problems, but for some reasons he cannot pick up the signals from the Asus EA-N66 range extender.
So in his room he gets one bar on the signal notification (on the apple devices) and with the range extender in his room it works with Microsoft devices.
But, I asked him if he had tried the access point, and he didn't so I'll let you know if that works better then the range extender mode 🙂

Ok so your problem is not the same as mine, if you can connect to the router and can't browse the net, it look like a DNS problem,
you have to make sure to use DHCP setting on the iSomething , and check on the setting the DNS as to be your router address , of course your router are to be set to DHCP ...
here and example on my son iPod note the word PC-Quebec my network, if you don't have this kind of info , it'S because ou not even connected to your wi-fi router, but if you connected m make sure the DNS is the same adress as the router
