Anyone have a fix for an Apple Airport Extreme wifi connectivity issue? I try to connect to wifi in my home and I keep getting the message that the device is obtaining the IP address but it never connects. When I turn on my Sprint MiFi device, that is recognized and connects. Sprint said they couldn't help me out. They told me to disconnect the airport extreme then turn it back on. They also told me to take out the battery to my device. They reset my data and told me to put the battery back in and turn the device on. Still nothing. Help Me!

Try changing the security type on the router. Also, check that you are using the correct password type. Make sure you don't have MAC address filtering turned on, or add the nexus MAC address if you do.

Problem solved. Apple walked me through the process. Had to reset my Airport Extreme and then reset my cable modem. Thanks
