HP Pavillion dv6000 shows it is connected to Airport Extreme Guest network, but does not allow internet access.  Anyone have ideas what to do?

My MacBookPro works fine on both primary and guest networks.  HP info shows excellent signal strength.  Web page won't open.  Tried reducing security level from WPA2personal to WPA.  Tried entering TCP/IP addresses manually in HP.  I'm told that the HP works with other WiFi routers and can access Internet through other WPA2 setups.  I'm out of ideas.  Help?

With a PC, the Windows Firewall and/or the anti-virus software will sometimes block an attempted Internet connection.
Check both applications to see if you can find a "blocked" item and then take steps to "allow" the connection.
If still no luck, temporarily disable the wireless security for a short period to see if the PC can connect that way. If it can.....then you know it is security related issue.
See if the PC can connect using a setting like WPA-PSK-TKIP. The equivalent Apple setting would be WPA/WPA2 Personal.

  • My new iphone4 connected to the internet fine at the store today, but will not connect to my wifi at home - it sees the guest network, but does not give me a place to enter the password

    I just got a new iphone 4 (my first one) and the internet worked great at the store, as well as in the parking lot at the grocery store on the way home - yes I was playing with it!  Anyway, now that I'm home and the store is closed, it won't connect to my home wifi.  It sees the guest network, but it doesn't give me place to put in the password, so I'm not sure if that's why it won't work.  Also, I don't know what settings to put in for the screen that comes after the network choice screen - it has IP Addresses with DHCP, BootP, and Statis (I don't know what any of these are or mean!)  It also has a 'renew lease' button that I have no idea what to do with, and it has a section with HTTP proxy that is highlighted "off" but also has 'manual' and 'auto' options - maybe these are not set correctly?
    Very frustrating that there is no manual, and the website doesn't really help with this at all.  Thanks so much!

    If you look at the top left of your screen you will either see a 3G (or 4G if you have AT&T) or you will see the wi-fi symbol.  If you don't see the wi-fi symbol you are connecting to Gmail through your cellular data plan, not via wi-fi.
    To answer your question, it doesn't happen often but when it does the steps I mentioned above will normally resolve it.  Hopefully you won't have any further problem with this.

  • My Ipad shows an internet connection, but does no allow internet access

    I cannot access the internet on my I pad.   It shows 2 lines of connection

    OK.....then try the reverse, go into settings > network and forget network settings.  This will remove your router.  Then reconnect (of course you need to remember your router password).

    I have network magic on windows 7 home premium  5.5.9195.0 pure0linksys router setup 11.2.9195.1.  I have a DSL connection to the work network with firewall off.  
    Network magic maps the workplace network and all the servers on the workplace router.  However, network magic says I have to set up network magic on the workplace router, which I do not have administrative access to. 
    I was able to access the network router without problems about 3 months ago.  Now I can't access the workplace router.

    Try to readjust the wireless settings on your router....
    Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...

  • After I updated to iOS 7, my iCloud account is showing the incorrect email address for my Apple ID but will not allow me to change it- it's gray and I can't click on it. How do I fix this?

    After I updated to iOS 7, my iCloud account is showing the incorrect email address for my Apple ID but will not allow me to change it- it's gray and I can't click on it. How do I fix this?

    If you change your email, you do not need to "change" your AppleID. Just edit your email(s) on your Apple ID by logging in to your AppleID account. You should always use the same AppleID for  Apple Services (iCloud, iTunes etc) and multiple ID will cause problems and confusion in the future.

  • How come my external hard drive is no longer visible in finder even after ticking it in preferences? it shows in the disk utilities but does not allow me to find a problem or fix the problem? Please help.

    it shows in the disk utilities but does not allow me to find a problem or fix the problem? Please help. also my external hard drive is a seagate free agent go, 500GB. it is visible on my tv but has no files in it… i'm scared i've lost everything?

    Honestly i cannot remember sorry, i got it like 5 maybe 6 yrs ago and just started downloading things to it as the memory on the computer started filling up and when i wanted to see photos/videos on my TV.
    My wife did tell me after i had written this post that she did try and record TV to it as it was plugged in. I think by doing so somehow has deleted everything.   It reads on my TV yet has no files in it but won't show up on my computer. hope this helps.
    Starting to think it is going to cost more to retrieve files on it than it will be to buy a newer and larger one.

  • Was able to create guest network but when I try to access guest network to test it, I cannot connect.

    Was able to create guest network but when I try to access guest network to test it, I cannot connect.  I tried iPad and iPhone.

    The Guest Network feature will not function correctly if the AirPort Exteme is configured in Bridge Mode.
    But unfortunately, Bridge Mode is the correct setting if you have the AirPort Extreme connected to a modem/router or gateway type of device.
    So, is the AirPort Extreme configured in Bridge Mode as illustrated above?
    Can you provide the make and model number of the device that you might call your "modem"?

  • TS1398 My ipad will not connect to other wifi networks. It has connected to my main home network but will not connect to the booster network in my home (it has previously!) It will also not connect to other networks outside my home.

    Hi
    I just got new router and had to reset my network settings on IPad. Since then, my ipad will connect onto the main home network but will not attach to my extension booster (netgear) which is linked to the home network. It will also not attach to networks outside my home that it has previously worked with. i have reset the settings again, powered off and on again, updated to the latest IOS update, but nothing is working. Please help, as I can only use wifi in a few rooms in my house and i do not have 3G on my my ipad.

    Did you try forgetting the network and starting all over again?
    Settings>WiFi>Network Name>Tap the blue arrow>Forget this Network. Restart your iPad and then try joining again.
    Try rebooting your router. Even though everything else may be connecting to your Network, it might help with the iPad. Unplug the router for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.
    Reset Network settings on the iPad?
    Settings>>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. You will have to start all over again, Tap WiFi in the settings, find your network and enter the password.

  • My MacBook Air says it in connected to my wifi, but my wifi signal has a "!" sign on it. My computer will not allow internet access, help?

    My MacBook Air says it in connected to my wifi, but my wifi signal has a "!" sign on it. My computer will not allow internet access, help?

    When you see an exclamation point in the Wi-Fi menu, from the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
    Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts. You may get a warning that Wi-Fi is not available, that you're too far from the base station, or that you're using the wrong password.
    Assuming that you've ruled out those possibilities, restart the computer and try again. If there's no change, click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane and authenticate, if necessary. From the Location menu at the top of the window, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click  Applyand test.
    If there's still no connection, and if you have control of the router, compare its settings to Apple's recommendations. Some third-party routers may be incompatible in 802.11b/g/n radio mode. Try setting the mode to 802.11n only.

  • TM not showing the drive connected to Airport Extreme....

    Hi
    I've been backing up to a USB drive connected to Airport Extreme since I installed Leopard with no problem.. Since 10.5.6 it stopped working. I ended up erasing the drive, reformatting it, reseting the Airport Extreme, repair permissions, used Onyx and Applejack and still this is what I'm getting:
    When I go select the drive from the TM prefs. it doesn’t show. If I connect it to the laptop first. accept the TM offer to use it as its HD and connect it back to the Airport. I can mount the drive but when trying to start a manual back up. TM gives me the msg. “The back up volume is not in Mac OS Extended (journaled) format which is required”. I formated the drive one more time, just in case and same thing. Last I did a full back up with another drive having it connected directly to the USB port and it worked fine.
    I am running all this from my main Admin profile with file vault enable. I have another Admin profile without the file vault enable as an emergency because of a past experience and don’t really use it. and I have the guest acc. enabled.
    Does anyone have any ideas??
    Thank you.

    backups to directly attached drives work differently (and are stored differently) from network backups. they are not interchangeable. also, while in the past TM backups to air disks worked, they are not officially supported by apple so it's possible that 10.5.6 update broke that functionality. You can try the following terminal command which helps to show unsupported volumes.
    defaults write com.apple.systempreferences TMShowUnsupportedNetworkVolumes 1
    see if the airdisk shows up as a possible TM disk after that.

  • Problem: airport extreme connects to network, but does not communicate

    I have been able to communicate via wireless networks using my airport extreme-enabled iBook G4... that is, until Thursday. (Or about Thursday... maybe it was Wednesday. Somewhere around then.)
    Now I can connect to a wireless network, but I am unable to communicate across the connection. ping fails. Web sites don't load--it appears the DNS lookup fails. Curiously, if I look at the network activity in the Activity Monitor I see a bunch of little bits of data getting sent and received, generally in the range of 20-100 bytes per second, though there is no obvious need for network activity. (Maybe my computer is attempting to get DNS info and such?) When things were working previously, a quiet system meant no network activity.
    Further muddying the waters, I can connect and communicate via wireless networks I had not connected to prior to Thursday. Today I went to three different wireless hotspots I had not connected to before, and was able to connect and communicate--everything worked fine at all three. But if I connect to any wireless networks I had previously connected to before Thursday, I get the problem I describe above.
    I did not knowingly make any networking changes on Thursday. I did, however, run Disk Utility's "Repair file permissions" around that time, due to problems with iTunes 7. Today I ran "Repair disk" in Disk Utility but no problems were found or fixed.
    My best guess is that some airport settings were corrupted for existing wireless networks on my computer sometime on Thursday, and this corrupted data is persisting. However, I have not been able to identify where that data would be.
    I deleted com.apple.airport.preferences.plist and NetworkInterfaces.plist in /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration, but that didn't fix the problem. (Of course, when Mac OS recreated these files it could have been from corrupted cached data, I suppose.)
    Dial-up access works fine.
    One last thing, I'm getting the following error message in /private/var/log/system.log when I connect to a network:
    Sep 22 20:49:41 localhost mach_init[2]: Server 2427 in bootstrap d03 uid 0: "/usr/sbin/lookupd": exited as a result of signal 1 [pid 515]
    However, I get the same message when I connect via dial-up (which is working OK), so I don't think that's related.
    Any ideas?
