In most cases Apple Macs do not provide you with many
problems, and the problems that are associated with the wifi are rare. However we
assume that if you are here you have a problem with your wifi, otherwise it doesn’t
make much sense to read this!
Typically Macs provide you with quick and instantaneous browsing;
however there are times when your Apple Mac will not connect to the internet or
it will ask you to choose one of the wifi connections form the menu bar that
are available.
When these problems occur they tend to frustrate and
irritate users and this doesn’t help either. Here are some simple tips that are
designed to assist you with the problem. The solutions that are provided here
are just designed to provide you with the quickest solutions so that you are
able to access the internet.
The first option:
The first option that you have is to restart your Mac. This
sometimes gets the problem resolved and after this it works fine. While this
appears to be the obvious first step to solving the problem, there are many
that simply fail to do so. That’s the reason that we have mentioned it here, if
you haven’t done so we suggest that you give it a try, simply restarting your
laptop can rectify many little problems that occur.
The second option:
As simple as the first try restarting your wireless router,
this is another option that works with much the same logic as before. There are
many different types of routers so we will not get into how to restart each one
individually, all that you need to do is make sure that the power goes off and
comes on again. We suggest that if you do not know how to do that you simply
pull the plug on it!
We suggest you restart both the Mac and your wifi router
together, this really helps. Leave the router or modem off for a minute before
you restart it.
Third option:
Check that the router is actually working; the simplest way
of doing this is to check with another computer to see if it is able to catch
any signals from the router. This is another feature that is associated with troubleshooting;
there are times when your router may actually be dead! It is known to happen.
These are some of the really simple do it yourself solutions
that are available that almost everyone can easily follow. You will find a lot
more information on our website www.itmaple.net.
Other options that you have if you are still unable to connect are to give us a
call and we will see what the problem is.
