I really enjoyed reading about how difficult you were finding setting up an ipod on a network. If you have never set up a network, you really should not have purchased an ipod touch. If you still want to set it up, get a professional to help you. All you are doing is showing your level of knowledge as that not worthy of reply!
IT will cost you, but, face it, a 5 minute setup is how long it takes, if you know what you are doing. Is this worth it?
Only you can answer that.

if it isn't your internet, and there is a password on it - you shouldn't be on it anyway.
if it is your internet - then go to your router's configuration page under security and put in either the WEP or WPA key.

Omg. Is there a site for people who actually know what they are doing? A locked signal is locked so that if you don't know the password,you can't use it! Your iPod will automatically detect wireless signals around it. If you don't know the code to join, the person who owns it doesn't want you to and locked it. Lack of free wifi signal means you have either set up your own with router and modem or go somewhere it's free like the library to get your iPod online or to access any features that require it.
The original question was for anyone with knowledge on how to save a password to a wireless signal you are authorized to access? Is this possible?

There is a option called Ask to Join a New Network.Yours is turned Off.Just turn it back to On and it should work like before
To connect to the Internet you need to buy it and password the connection which then it will be locked from people around you to use because you paid for it.
If your lucky sombody around you may not have password protected there Internet and then you can join(steal there bandwidth) it no problem.
You can also go find a hotspot which is a place like a coffee shop or something like that to connect to the Internet for free.

It's probably your router firewall which is preventing you to game online.
Go to your router configuration and there it may have a game mode setting and if not then you need open up a port.
If you don't know how to configure it just phone tech support.
If your router came with your Internet subscription phone them and they should be able to walk you through it.

Dudes,
The way I have found to save the wifi password instead of entering the bloody thing over and over is go to:
Settings/wi-fi/ then you will see a option to 'ask to join networks' set it to OFF. This way, it won't keep asking you everytime.
I just tried it on my 64gb touch with 3.1.2 firmware.
Fixed.

The passwords you want are your neighbours password protected Internet connection and it's passworded because they bought the service and they don't like people stealing there bandwidth.
Wifi is basically the method of connecting to an Internet source without using a Wire like a Bluetooth connection.
Find a free Internet connection called hotspots.They are usually coffe shops and libraries

I have had a home wireless network for quite some time now and have many computing devices attached to it; kids school laptops, Wii's, DS's, etc. I found the iPod terminolgy for wireless setup to be non-intuitive and uncommon to most commonplace computing. I could not get my daughters iPod Touch to prompt for the Security type from the automatic list of network devices no matter what I did.
I was able to get it to work by:
1 - going to "Other...", typing the network "Name" in manually (be careful to make sure it is exact, case, numbers and all),
2 - select the "Security" type WEP or WPA (mine is WEP becuase this is common to Nintendo and public school Windows access setups), and then
3 - enter one of your WEP keys into the iPod field for "Password".
I am using a DLink wireless router behind 2 additional layers of firewall protection with Network Magic. Network Magic immediately recognized that the iPod device requested access with the proper security settings but had flagged it aa a potential intruder. I had to then go tell Network Magic the device was not an intruder and to manually provide the router manager with device identification settings (ie device name) because the iPod did not send it over.
The iPod then placed a check mark beside the original network list entry to show that it was connected. You can then check details about whether the router has completely enabled the iPod by navagating through the little > to the far right. You should see numbers for IP Address, Subnet Mask, Router and DNS. This tells you you are fully recognized by your wireless network typically all the way out to the internet.
I hope this helps.

Wireless router's have a security layer that can protect it by only allowing certain Mac address's to access it. Your Mac address can be found in the general setting button on the Itouch. Once you have that # you need to access the wireless router on the network your attemptong to access. This can be done by using a computer that is already linked to the system. In other words if the internet is working your hooked. Then type the following 192.168.0.1 generally that is the default ip address for the router. An access screen should appear. You will need that info to continue. Generally the default code if one is'nt set is admin (username) then no password. Sometimes the password will be admin again. Once inside the router config, go to the wireless tab. It's diffrent on various models. there should be a tab in that setting to add or block Mac address's. If the setting to block is turned on, you will need to add your Mac address to the list there. use the format shown to enter the address. Generally it is 12:24:ad: so on and so forth depending on what Mac address you have. Then save the settings and that should do it.

Am I just not understanding some of these questions?
First off passwords are just that passwords just like your pin number to your bank card.
Internet is not free unless you find a Hot spot so most people password protect there Internet connection and some just forget or just don't know how.
Your iPod finds in a limited radius all the Internet connection, password protected or not.
I have an iPod touch and in my opinion it's just a fun little gadget but if you want to check email and surf the net anywhere anytime use a 3g phone or something like that until it gets more advanced

If you don't know your password to connect to the Internet then you don't have one and it's at default so anyone close enough can connect to it.
The arcs people are talking about is the signal strength of the Internet connection to you. Three arcs - high, medium, and low.
On the connection list on your iPod if you set up security on your connection then the name you used in the set up should show up.
Have you guys been scrolling farther down the list because you might be only looking at half the list and yours is close to the bottom.
If you haven't set yours up with a security then in the list the name might be default or the name of your router make.
Your iPod has a wifi Internet connection and no LAN line connections so if you don't have a wireless router then your SOL .
When you connect to your computer through the USB you can not get Internet connection you can just file transfer.
If you don't know your own security password and your 100percent sure that is your Internet connection then first go ask the person who set up your Internet why didn't you give me the name and password when you set it up.
Second- read the instructions that came with your wireless router on how to set it up security.
Third- phone your Internet provider for help.
Fourth- if you can't connect it could be a firewall issue

FYI to anyone with Charter Communications as their host and you're trying to set up your email on your new iPod Touch. It can be done although it can also be difficult. Charter is evidently not the iPod's friend. I followed the iPod Touch instructions to the letter but no luck. Then took it to Apple store and rep there could not get the set up to work either. Went home and tried it again and this time just let it sit there for ten minutes while it tried to hook up. It finally worked. The only thing I think I did wrong ealier at home and at the Apple store was that I just didn't wait long enough!

get the router IP address from the stick on the back or underside of the router.
enter IP address in http search bar.
enter username = admin

any errors relating to safari not connecting? turn off the router for 30 seconds with the ipod switched on. when you switch router back on, the ipod will pick the new IP address and router settings.
then everything will be fine.

I have had a home wireless network for quite some time now and have many computing devices attached to it; kids school laptops, Wii's, DS's, etc. I found the iPod terminolgy for wireless setup to be non-intuitive and uncommon to most commonplace computing. I could not get my daughters iPod Touch to prompt for the Security type from the automatic list of network devices no matter what I did.
I was able to get it to work by:
1 - going to "Other...", typing the network "Name" in manually (be careful to make sure it is exact, case, numbers and all),
2 - select the "Security" type WEP or WPA (mine is WEP becuase this is common to Nintendo and public school Windows access setups), and then
3 - enter one of your WEP keys into the iPod field for "Password".

Strange Wi-Fi capability!
I have an Ipod Touch and Iphone come from same OS version 3.1.2. And I have a wireless router at home. Initially, I set wireless router to broadcast SSID where both Iphone and Ipod able to identify the access point. But since I dont want to just let somebody sniffing my access point, I disabled the broadcast of SSID. Unfortunately Ipod can no longer detect the access point while Iphone can still attach to it. Im using D-Link DIR-300 with WPA/WPA2 security mode, TKIP and PSK encryption/authentication. Im thinking this is a bug in my Ipod. Pls help!!

For everyone asking for the password, try either PEBKAC or 1d10t. That is it most of the time. If not then you may have to wipe the ipod by going to the command prompt and typing format c:\ and pressing enter. It may take some time to format a large ipod (32GB+)

Jesus you people are retarded. If you don't know what password to use for a network, chances are you're not allowed to be on that network anyway! If you have your own wireless network at home, then ask the person who set it up for you to assist you.

If you do not know the password for a Wifi connection then either you do not own the wifi or your a complete retard.How hard is it to go into your router and get the wep key...NOT HARD. And if you can't connect because you have wpa security just change it to wep. Simple as that.
For "most" routers all you have to do is go on a computer and in the browser type 192.168.2.1 Or 192.168.1.1 to access your router so you can find your wep key etc etc.
If you don't have a router stop trying to steal wifi from someone else if you bought a ipod touch then you should have enough money to buy a 30 buck wireless router.

I didn't see an answer to this from someone else so I'm reposting.
Kids just bought Ipod Touches and I have a closed WiFi network. I put in network name and password for them but when the IPods disconnect from the network, they want the password every time. Any way to save it? It's not consistent, and they are kids. I like to keep passwords to protected networks protected and private. I only think to return them to the store and get laptops for them. I know those work.

My wife just bought an iPod Touch and I have to say, it is a complete POS to setup. The iPhone was a simple setup, the Touch is a nightmare and if I had known this ahead of time I would have told her to steer clear of this stupid thing. Leave it to Apple to make simple WiFi device setup a chore that doesn't work, funny how it's the only device of 7 wireless devices on my home network that refuses to connect.

I can't believe the amount of useless info posted here, "your config is in your settings"? How lame. Apple lists the manual's connection to wifi steps but offers no ACTUAL troubleshoot steps or options. For example, there is no image diagram correlating the connection between what Apple labels as settings names and what your wifi/modem/router calls them. This is a disservice to it's customers however it does not stop them from taking your money to their bank. As usual, the manufacturer decides that it is the responsibility of the consumer to get their piece of Cra_p operational.
Mine suddenly asks for a password where no password exists. This an ipod hardware fault not a network issue.
I can't tell you how many forums are filled with misinformation and confusing verbiage designed to make the contributor feel they've been most helpful

I had WiFi on my 4 G since I opened it at X-Mas, but a few days ago it stopped. Ive done everything suggested and still nothing. I keep getting the same BS "Safari can not open this page cause you are not connected to the internet' The final suggestion is to take it back to Apple for repairs. Apple can suck me!!! Last Ipod I had, the home button stopped working. I took it down to Apple and my warranty expired 2 weeks before the problem occurred. They gave me a quote on how much it would cost to fix it, but for the price, I was better off getting a new one. Well here it is only 6 months later and problems with the new much more expensive Ipod. Im sick of the BS and the run around Apple gives you when theres an issue. On a scale of 1-10, I rate these I-Trash 3.

Like many here have experienced, my ipod touch's wifi connection suddenly stopped working. This was after months of no problems. I tried everything short of wiping everything off it and starting over. I also tried all the (reasonable-sounding) suggestions I read here. What finally worked was to go to settings>wifi then choose my home's wifi by name, then choose "forget network". The next time I tried to connect it asked for the password, I typed it in and it connected. I didn't see this tip so thought I would add it in hopes it helps someone else.

I've generally connected well to every WiFi hotspot network with my new iPod Touch 4G -- EXCEPT my home network!! Usually when I'm stuck I log onto our (Netgear "G") router from one of our laptops, and change the channel. I usually use 1, 6, or 11, because I've heard they are non-overlapping.
Changing the channel always lets the iPod connect immediately. I'm guessing that the problem is interference with one of our neighbours using the same (or an adjacent) channel -- but just guessing.

Just like a car, if you took driver's ed or read the manufacturers user manual in the glove box, you can ask questions that can help you. Apple provides a .pdf manual for the iPod that you can download to a computer or get from the app store onto your iPad. It provides clear instructions on how to access wireless network(s). To have access to a closed or hidden network, you need permission first from who manages the network. They will supply you with SSID and password, and type of security to select. Open networks like at schools, libraries and restaurants like Panera Bread or Burger King or bookstores, just ask them for instructions. An iPad is capable of connecting to and storing access choices for several locations. Be very careful at work, as you can be monitored or restricted as to what you can do even on open systems. If you installed your own router it came with a manual or info on a CD. Hopefully you documented what you did to install it. If you purchased or lease a wireless connection such as with ATT or Verizon they should be able to help. Remember that wifi uses a lot of battery power, and your iPod can't be run down if you expect it to work. None of the questions seen here are stupid. Some ill prepared, and some really seem to want to know how to get into someone else's system, and as we and others said not such a good idea. Cracking into someone else's system might gain you access, and it might be destructive to your own device.
