Air port not connecting

I have a linksys wireless internet connector for three macbooks. the first two connect well but when i try to connect to the wifi, an ! symbol appears. the internet worked before on this computer

On the affect Mac reset the Airport connections. First turn off the Airport card then open System Preferences->Network pane . In there delete your Airport icon and don't panic because if you follow the directions it will be back. Then you must reboot your Mac immediately after deleting the Airport card.
Upon the reboot do nothing else but go back in System Preferences->Network pane. In there hit the + button and add the Airport connection again. Don't try to use the Airport card yet!Then you must reboot again!
After this last reboot do the Reset Pram procedure! Then at last you can go into the System Preferences->Network pane and then move the Airport icon to the top of the left hand pane. Then in the Airport card pane turn the Airport card on and configure it for you wireless network.
Hopefully doing this procedure will help reset your Airport card. Please report back if this helps or not, Good Luck.

My macbook air will not connect to the internet due to a self assigned IP address. I have tried trawling the support forums, but either I can't understand the suggestions, or they don't work. Please explain to me in simplest terms how to fix this. Thanks!

The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

Reset the TC to factory and start again.
Use all SMB type names for wireless and base station.. Not apple type names.. this is more important since Mavericks.
I also recommend different names for the different bands.
So for example.
TC name.. TCgenx (I use whatever the generation number is for the x.. eg TCgen4 or latest one TCgen5)
WIreless name.. TC24ghz for 2.4ghz
TC5ghz for 5ghz
You can also set the channel manually.
If you still have issues.. start with no security and then if it fails to connect there is something seriously wrong with the laptop. Did you upgrade install Mavericks?? That can lead to driver issues.. I would recommend a clean install.

MacBook Air will not connect to a specific network

Hi,
I recently moved into a new place and the landlord has a wireless connection in place. My Macbook Pro , iPad and iPhone 5s all connect to the network without a problem (it requires a password and we were able to connect just fine). However, my mom's MacBook Air is not connecting at all. It recognizes the network and even establishes a connection to it, however, I only see an exclamation point on the airport icon on the top right once the connection is established and we cannot browse any websites.
Does anyone have any potential solution to this? I'm not able to drive to the Apple Store right now so I was hoping something could be done on my end prior to going to the genius bar.
Thanks in advance

IMessage on my macbook air will not connect.

iMessage on my macbook air will not connect. It says "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again." I have gone through all the support instructions and a lot of these discussion chats. I have sign out of it and my phone and resigned in. I have checked that everything is verified and connected. My ios is up to date on both my computer and phone. It worked fine until about a week ago and suddenly it stopped
Thank you for your assistance!

Hi,
In Hard Drive/Library/Fonts do you have the AppleGothic.ttf Font.
The iMessages account uses this to "register".
If the computer has been Off then the App effectively "registers" the Apple ID again.
It cannot do this is the Font is "missing".
The thread I saw that highlighted this as an issues said the font could be downloaded from Apple but not the "how" of that.

Macbook air will not connect to the wifi network

I recently had to replace my wireless network router and now my macbook air will not connect to the network. it worked fine with the old wireless router. Now, i get a "unable to join wi-fi network" message. The network ID (SSID) and password (WPA) are the same as before. I try to manually enter the password, but continue to get the previous message.
Any help in figuring out how to correct this problem is greatly appreciated.
Also, I have several PCs in the house that have had zero problems connecting to my wireless with the new router. What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
Ever since did the last airport utility update this has been happening.
I believe the airport utility update is solely a software update. Repair permission and repair disk (boot from your installation disk A) may help.
Other wise, http://osxdaily.com/2009/12/22/mac-wireless-problems-guide-to-troubleshooting-ai rport-wireless-problems-on-your-mac/ may help, too.
Cheers.

HT4262 WI-Fi not working says air port not configured

Wi-fi not working says air port not configured, help]

Life is getting more complicated to do support..
You need to tell us what version airport.. extreme or express and the model number. A1xxx from the label.
You need to tell us OS.. if the profile which says 10.6.8 is wrong.. as that is confusing.
The new AC version Extreme needs 6.3 version airport utility which is only available for Lion or mountain Lion.
You might also need to turn on ipv6 local-link to get it to show in the utility.

Macbook Air will not connect to the internet via Wi-Fi or Ethernet

Macbook Air will not connect to the internet via Wi-Fi or Ethernet? Any ideas why not and how to fix this problem?

Power down the router. Unplug the cord from the wall. Wait a while.
Plug the cord back in. Restart the router.
Wait until all the lights are lit up properly.
Restart the computer.
Best.

Air Port not working any more

I routinely connect and disconnect my iBook G4 from my cable modem. With each transition it takes a few seconds for the machine to reconfigure how it is accessing the internet, but then everything is fine.
Well, for whatever reason I cannot figure out, now when I disconnect my computer I'm unable to aquire a wireless signal.
I have a Linksys router hooked up, and it is working, but for some reason my Air Port isn't reading it anymore.
I try checking the network settings, but it still doesn't fix it.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you,
Jon
PS - Please let me know if there are any other details about my set-up that you need to know to help figure out my problem. Somehow I'm sure this will boil down to "User error", but I just don't know where I'm going wrong. I'm not doing anything different than I have before.

This will be a funny question, but it's better to ask. After you disconnected your iBook from cable modem, did you plug the ethernet cable to your router? I believed it's also a good practice to completely turn off your cable modem and your router while swapping/plugging the ethernet cable from your modem to your router.

Ethernet port not connected - airport working - not able to get online

Hi, new poster. Never had an issue with our beloved iMac 20 inch Intel Core 2 Duo 2.16 GHz - 2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM. It's old but it serves us, we hope it's not shot. Power goes out a lot here, system has surge protection but no battery backup. System just goes down without being shutdown properly. We used wired Ethernet. No the problem. Last time power just went out, the system would not boot up. I searched around and found out to use the DVD to verify/repair disk. It finally did and system now boots up. However, it says the Ethernet is not connected. It is. I tried three different cables that worked with our laptop and two different routers, all that happens is the light on the router flashed on and off. While on the network status in sys pref displays no cable detected vs. Cable connected but not connected to internet. Assumed the port was shot. OK, turned on the airport. Connects, gets DHCP assigned IP address and/or accepts static IP but when we launch Safari says it can't connect. Tried Opera browser, same thing. Sophos AV also can't connect for updates. All these network configurations had worked previously until this last power outage. Searched for help, as I don't want to waste peoples time. Found out about these things that follow: SMC RESET - PRAM RESET - Delete connection and recreate same - Network Diagnostics - Hardware Diagnostics - Verify & Repair disk ••• Nothing makes it connect to Internet. Network diagnostics gets to end but will not get connected. Hardware diagnostics regular and extended report no issues. We think the logic board is shot given everything we tried and symptoms with system. Can anyone suggest something we did not try of the things we did listed above? Please help us save this thing from the recycling center. Thanks in advance. Sorry for the long post, wanted to be thorough with what's going on and what we have already tried and done thanks to searching these forums for the last week.

Yikes, sounds like big problems!
Have you blown the dust out lately?

Air Port Extreme connection problems

I have a Macbook Pro and a 1st gen. Ipod connected to the Internet using an Air Port Extreme. At this time I cannot use two devices at once to access the Internet, only one or the other. What should I do to adjust settings on my Airport?

The modem is a Motorola modem (silver) provided by AT&T and the model # is: 2210-02-1022 - I believe this is correct
style: MSTATEA
serial: 164303845632
