Hello,

For some time now, an error message has been appearing on my Mac. After using my computer, it goes to sleep, and when I try to work on my Mac again and select the Wi-Fi, an error message appears (Connection timeout). Thank you for your help ^^

Configuration: Mac OS X / Safari 534.53.10

    Hello,

      You need to update the router's firmware!

      Connection timeout

      After struggling like crazy and seeing all the questions asked with no real answers on various forums, I think I've found a solution and I would like to share it with everyone.
      The only culprit in my case, since everything was well configured, was that f***ing password.
      SO TRY THIS: 1- Go into the wifi settings of your livebox and set a password with an uppercase letter and at least 8 characters. In my trial, I used the following word: Apoiuytrez
      2- Launch the wifi connection on the MacBook and enter its password.
      And there it is instantaneous, the connection works YES!!!!!!
      MAC is great but it's also really stupid! I almost threw that damn MacBook against a wall
      so I hope I helped save a few MacBooks that could have also ended up against a wall!!!!

      Hello, I had the same problem and what I did is I manually added my MAC address to the Livebox and everything started working fine again ;)
