After downloading ff4, ff will not launch. I am connected to the internet but cannot access any pages.

I recently downloaded firefox 4 on to my linux based notepad. This is an acer aspire one. Since Firefox 4 installed I have been unable to access any internet pages, through luanching firefox browser or the search bar on my desktop. I am connected to the internet through my home wireless connection, so don't understand why not able to view pages.

I have the same problem but can go on to some websites but not others. I have tried what was suggested about clearing recent history and also the proxy server but it hasn't resolved the problem.

  • HT3466 Airport has self assigned IP address 169.254.153.51 and will not be able to connect to the Internet

    Cannot  connect to internet wirelessly because I get the message "AirPort has the self-assigned IP address 169.254.153.51 and will not be able to connect to the Internet."

    I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
    Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
    Disconnect the AirPort base station from the Internet broadband modem.
    While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
    After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
    Reconnect the AirPort base station to the Internet broadband modem. For the Extreme and Time Capsule, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
    Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
    Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
    Power-up your computer(s).
    In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results.

  • I have no longer been able to connect to the internet as aiport continueously tells me that "airport has selfassigned ip address and will not be able to connect to the internet.

    Up until about a week ago I have not had a single internet connectivity problem.  Then, all of the sudden airport will no longer connect and it keeps telling me that "Airport has self-assigned IP address and will not be able to connect to the internet." I did not change any settings, I didn't touch anything and all of the sudden it just will not connect anymore.  Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!:)

    These steps often sort out this problem...
    System Preferences > Network
    Select the AirPort from the left hand side
    Click on the Locations combo box and select Edit Locations...
    Click on + to add a new location, call it "Home" (or anything else you prefer)
    Click on Advanced
    Select the AirPort tab and enter your network name
    Select TCP/IP tab. 
    Configure IPv4 Using DHCP
    Now click on Renew DHCP Lease.  After a few seconds you should get an IP address (probably 192.168.x.x)
    Click on Proxies tab.
    Select Auto Proxy Discovery and Use Passive FTP
    Click on OK and Apply, etc.

  • Wi-Fi has self-assigned IP address 169.254.9.151 and will not be able to connect to the Internet

    In trying to setup my AirPort Extreme, it connects to the Internet on ethernetcables to computer but says it is not on WI-FI. I have configured it with all that I casn think of and yet I get, "Wi-Fi has self-assigned IP address 169.254.9.151 and will not be able to connect to the Internet." Can anyone tell me what is wrong?
    I did both a soft reset and a hard reset to no avail. PLEASE someone help!!

  • Ethernet has a self-assigned IP address and will not be able to connect to the internet

    Ethernet has a self-assigned IP address and will not be able to connect to the internet
    The problem appears to have been a connection error as well as the system preferences which have reset with a 'valid' IP address after a system preferences 'reboot'.

    Power off your internet router. Disconnect completely from its mains power by pulling the plug out of the mains socket. Disconnect all ethernet leads and cables to the router. Wait a minute or so and then reconnect all cables and turn on the power. See if your internet starts.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • Self assigned Ip address 169.254.233.194 and will not be able to connect to the internet

    self assigned IP address  and will not be able to connect to the internet. How do I fix this?

    Sorry we have no info.. so description of the problem..
    Are you using wireless? If so on what? Do you have a TC?
    Is this a new TC and failed to setup correctly? Or you have TC or some other wireless router that has been working fine and now failed?
    Plug in by ethernet? Does it now work?
    Reboot the TC.. Does it now work?
    Reboot the whole network.. restart in order.. modem.. router.. TC.. whatever other network equipment.. clients.
    Do some clients work and others fail?
    Press and hold reset on the TC. Redo the setup.. change the TC setup to fixed channels and SMB names.
    We cannot give specific answers to such vague faults.

  • IPad Wi-Fi has the self-assigned IP address 169.254.210.251 and will not be able to connect to the Internet.  How to fix?

    Mini connects to internet via cable modem fine.
    Want to have ipad connect also but mini Wi-Fi has the self-assigned IP address 169.254.210.251 and will not be able to connect to the Internet.  How to fix?

    Hello:
    I am a long way from a wi-fi expert, but.....
    You need, I think, either a router with wi-fi or an airport (express or extreme).  The iPad needs to connect to to a network.  In my case, I use an airport express and both my iMac and iPad 2 connect to the Internet through the airport device.

  • My Macbook Pro says Wi-Fi has the self-assigned IP address 169.254.74.157 and will not be able to connect to the internet.

    I just got my new Macbook Pro today. When I tried to connect it to my Wi-Fi at home it won't connect. I put in my WEP key correct every time and it keeps saying  "Wi-Fi has the self-assigned IP address 169.254.74.157 and will not be able to connect to the internet" . I connect my iPod touch to this same Wi-Fi all the time plus my other laptop and my phone and it works fine. Please help !! I  use Verizon Fios modem/router.

    Hi, it could be that the Router will not allow you onto the network..Reboot, Modem,Router & computer..
    Find out the native IP address for your Router & reset the network configs''
    Use Keychain Access to Delete all Internet/Router Passwords etc.. Then Roboot..

  • Wi-Fi has the self-assigned IP address 169.254.82.22 and will not be able to connect to the Internet.

    I was watching my ATV3 and it suddenly stopped. When trying to reset things and get my wifi back I get the following message: Wi-Fi has the self-assigned IP address 169.254.82.22 and will not be able to connect to the Internet. I do not have clue to what happened or what to do next. Any help is appreciated.

    Power-Cycle the modem.... though it looks like your internet services may have gone down.. or something else upstream has gone kaut.

    Wi-Fi has the self-assigned IP address 169.254.235.119 and will not be able to connect to the Internet.

    Reset the TC and make sure it is in the right mode.. ie router if you use a cable pure modem for instance.
    Or if you use a router combined modem.. put the TC in bridge mode.

  • AirPort has the self-assigned IP address .... and will not be able to connect to the Internet., AirPort has the self-assigned IP address ...and will not be able to connect to the Internet.

    I came from the U.S to Spain and My laptop will not connect to the internet via airport I keep getting the message above what do I do?

    Hi, the one below worked for my case.
    I beleive there are different reasons for this problem. In my case, doing try and error, I found a solution for my case (at the ver end of this post). The reason I say this is because I had the same problem and googled the problem for quite a while ... none of the suggested solutions worked for me, although it seems like they worked for others in some cases. I tired taking my computer to different wifi networks (mainly unprotected ... ie no WAP) and alwasy got the same problem. I even took the computer to apple and no luck ... surprisely when I took it to apple it did connect to apple's wifi network in the store, so according to them it was probably some problem with my network ... when I walked out of the store I tried connecting to another open network in the mall and got the same problem ... went back to apple and they tried a few things without any luck (however it would connect to apple's network)
    Of all the solutions I read the one that made more sense for me was the one related to keychain access, although in my case I had the problem trying to get into an unprotected network, which at some point was protected.
    So this is what I did: among other things I compared the keychain access file with that from another macbook that was working ok, and I noticed that although my wifi network is unprotected there was an entry for it in the keychain access list (maybe from the time that I had the network protected with the deafult config from the router). So I went to network preferences on the computer that had the problem, went to advanced and selected the name of my network (configured without security), and changed it to WAP personnal security, and entered the previous access code from my router --- the same configured in the other mac keychain file ---. This created an entry for my network in the keychain access file, just as it showed in the other macbook. I then went back to network preference and change the configuration of my network back without security. AND NOW it is working, NO MORE SELF ASSIGNED IP ADDRESS.  (remember that I actually I never really changed the configuration of my wifi router to make the network secured ... actually I didn't touch it at all .... well I did before some days ago trying to follow some of the suggested solutions, doing things like power cycle, reset to factory default etc, etc, which never worked)
