Hi Stuart,
The ipad can see the network, but will not connect (after putting the
password in).

I concur with Daniels sentiments. Go get a Netgear or Billion. I
have sold a
gazillion Netgear DG834 modem/routers in various models and haven't
had one
back. Easy peasy to set up.
Belkins are usually good too.
By chance, is the issue you are having to do with "seeing" the
wireless
network from the laptop/ipad/tower or is it problems with the security
password? That is you can see the network, but it won't connect.

Hi Julie
Surprised to hear that, as I've found the Belkins I've set up for
clients
work very well with all iPhones, iPads, Mac's and even Windows
machines,
both off Ethernet and wireless as well.
Normally Belkin is one of my recommendations.
The other brands I tend to work with are Netgear and Billion. Both
(and
Belkin as well normally) I recommend and find work well with
everything.
Fairly easy to set up.
Personally (and this is my own experience, so others may differ),
I'm not a
big fan of Netcomm or D-Link. I find them to be a bit un-reliable
and don't
last as long. (I've gone through 3 Netcomm modems with a client and
they
only last about 9 months before falling over. All covered by
warranty, but
still a pain in downtime and swapping them out for a new one....)
Just my 2cents with anyway.
However, if it's a setting, then a new modem may do the same as
well. So if
the Belkin isn't too old a model, may be worth revisiting the
settings for
it,....as another idea as well ;)
Hope that helps.
Kind Regards
Daniel

Hi,
Wonder if anyone can direct me on getting a suitable router for my
laptop, tower and ipad. I have
a Belkin at the moment. When I purchased my laptop last year I
had a
lot of trouble getting it to
see my airport and now with my new ipad, I'm experiencing the same
difficulties. I thought
rather than waste hours trying to get it to function, I would
purchase
one that is suitable,where
the laptop and ipad would locate it immediately.
Any ideas - thanks
