Airport: Internet not working

Airport has self assigned IP address and will not connect properly to the internet. Have tried manually entering the IP address from another computer on the same network but still cannot connect to the Internet...Any advice/suggestions much appreciated

  • Internet not working after turning Airport on

    Hello,
    All of a sudden, I can not connect to the internet when I turn the Airport on. The signal looks strong. But when I open my browser, it gives an error page. On a cafe where there is a free wireless internet that I go to often and had no problems connecting, gave me this message recently.
    IP Configuration
    192.168.1.46 in use by 00:18:39:88:81:fc, DHCP Server 192.168.1.1
    Is there anything that I need to update in my Airport settings? If so, where? I have been trying to look for that and don't seem to have any luck.
    Thanks for any help.

  • Airport Express not working with Comcast

    I used to have AT&T and had my airport working well. Yesterday i changed to Comcast and my airport is not working the light stays yellow.. I tried resetting it but it didn't work.. I use it with my old Cisco router and its working. Whats wrong with my Airport Express? My computers are Windows 7

    A solid amber light indicates that the AirPort Express has locked up....or it is defective.
    Suggest you that try a Factory Default Reset as follows:
    Pull the Express from power
    Let it rest for a few minutes
    Hold in the reset button and keep holding it for another 8-10 seconds while you plug the Express back in to power
    Release the reset button after the hold period and allow 40-45 seconds to restart
    The Express should display a slow, blinking amber light at this time
    If you continue to see a solid amber light after a few tries with a Factory Default Reset, the Express has failed and it will need to be replaced.

  • Airport express not working since today's itunes update

    Since updating iTunes today, Airport Express not working. More specifically, the Airport software will recognise the device exists, but iTunes cannot connect to it, just getting error message.

    try this:
    go system preferences > network > airport > advanced > TCP/IP and set *configure IPv6* to off. click on apply.
    now have iTunes connect to the remote speaker again.

    Hi Joanna 59
    Sorry to hear that you are having this issue and Hope you are well; 
    1.Do you see any light on the back on the printer where the cable is connected? 
    2. Do you see lights on the back of the router where the cable that comes from the printer is connected? 
    3.What type of cable are using to connect the printer? Have you try another cable to see if the problem is the current cable.
    Please kindly include;
    What router are you using (Brand and model)

  • My internet not working

    I must did something to my phone and the internet not working not on my wireless or att network that odd.
    Safari could not open the page becuase the sever stopped responding that the error message but dail my phone still works.

    I travel between Central New Jersey and New York City everyday, and EDGE has been awful for the past two weeks. In my wishful thinking, I've been turning flight mode on and off, and resetting the phone.
    After seeing this, I can relax and put up with the crappy service
    Today there is nothing...nada...zippo.

  • PC Internet Not Working with Airport Extreme

    Hey guys, just got a new Airport Extreme to replace my old one. Me and my brother's MacBook's both work in terms of the internet, but my dad's PC's internet will not work. It is connected to the Airport, but has no internet access. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Apple's support section (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306256) says "How to enable Cisco VPN connections
    You should use Cisco's VPN client software to establish a Cisco VPN connection via an AirPort Extreme base station. Note: In the Cisco VPN client preferences, make sure the "NAT-T" option is enabled.
    Note: Some corporate firewall configurations may cause issues with the Cisco VPN software.
    Please contact AppleCare support if you are unable to contact a Cisco VPN server via Cisco VPN client software and an AirPort Extreme base station.
    I'm experiencing the same thing. DellLatitude D610. Netgear rangemax wireless PC card (WPN511). I can connect to the internet but I try to vpn into work I get half way through the connection process and get an error which states" Secure VPN Connection terminated locally by the Client. Reason 412: The remote peer is no longer responding. I've spent 2 hours trying different settings. I really want to stick w/the apple product but will have to return it if I can't get it to work. I need cisco vpn via wintel for work.

  • Self-Assigned IP....Internet Not Working

    Hi--
    Let me start off by saying I have absolutely no idea how this happened. I went to start my Macbook this morning and the Internet didn't work. Usually this is not big deal, and I just unplug the router and everything works fine. However, this time (for whatever reason) was different. When I go to my network settings, it says "Self-Assigned IP" under Airport and that "AirPort has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the Internet." I was browsing other forums, and found that sometimes renewing the DHCP lease works. I did this, and still no Internet.
    How do I fix this??
    Thank you.

    Hi - this may help.....I sort of had the same problem with my wired connection.
    Although I think my router is dying - I hooked my Macbook directly to my modem and my network said that it had a self-assigned IP address but could not hook up to the internet (although it had green lights for the Ethernet, Network settings and ISP)....
    I used the 'Automatic' location and the DCHP with manual address setting (or it was the Manual setting) - I got told that what it is doing is just randomly selecting a IP address to use but the address it chooses isn't actually able to work...
    (This what I was told) - I entered my IP address (I had copied it down from previous network setups) and I had to type in my router address (even though I wasn't using one I still had to have a number for it to use) - plus a subnet address.....
    After that it picked up my internet and works ok......I have to get a new router so hopefully I can connect it all up as it was before.....
    This may help - although my set up is slightly different....

  • Internet not working - wifi connected but internet and server fail, ethernet cable doesn't work either

    All of a sudden the internet on our Macbook Pro does not work.  We connect through an Airport Extreme and other mac works fine.  It shows that wifi is fully connected but when i go to diagnostics, i see the internet and server are failing.  I tried connecting an ethernet cable and it doesn't work that way either.  Have restarted and reset modem and router, nothing is working… help!

    Hi ehamzic1,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand how frustrating it can be when your computer cannot connect to the internet. In your situation, you will need to isolate to find what is causing the issues connecting. I would recommend reading over and working through the attached article. The article should help you troubleshoot and resolve this situation.

  • Internet not working through Apple applications, but ok in firefox?

    I'm having trouble with my internet connection through Apple software on my computer. It started a few days ago, I don't think any changes have been made to my network.
    Basically if I try to connect to the internet in Safari, Mail, iTunes, Dashboard or anything else that's an Apple program, it doesn't work at all. It spends a huge amount of time "Loading..." and sometimes will eventually come up with the information but usually times out.
    However, if I use Firefox - which I had luckily installed on my computer - all pages and everything load instantly.
    I connect to the internet through an Airport which we bought three months ago. The Airport connects to a modem which connects to the line.
    What is wrong and how do I fix it?? I much prefer using Safari and I'm dying because I can't get into the iTunes store!!

    Hi and welcome to Discussions,
    Firefox is one of the few applications that maintain their own 'Proxy'-settings and do not use the general 'Proxy'-settings of OSX like all the other apps you mentioned to not work.
    Check the Proxy-settings of Firefox against the general OSX ones.
    Hope it helps

  • Airport Just Not Working

    I was able to download the Airport Utility and set up my Airport on my Windows Laptop. The utility says everything is fine but the airport itself is flashing amber. The wireless internet is not working and I have tried resetting the Airport but no luck. Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?
    Thanks

    Have you tried to reset the base?
    Just get a paper clip and find the area in the back to reset the base
    just insert the paper clip until the amber light flashes twice as fast as before and hold it there for about 5 seconds. Also try reseting your modem as well.
    This cleared up my problems yesterday .

  • Airport card not working?

    I have a PowerBook G4, came with Airport card. We travel in an RV and over the past year have stayed at numerous campgrounds with WIFI, and my laptop has connected fine, as long as the signal strength is good enough. So I know it works, or at least has in the past. Yesterday, checked into a campground we have stayed at before, got out my laptop, checked the signal strength, which was pretty weak to non-existant. We are at the far edge of the park, so I wasn't surprised. Our site also has a phone line, so I got out my phone cord and connected per dial-up, got on the internet fine.
    A few minutes after I had been online by dial-up, I noticed that my Airport icon was showing good signal strength. So I disconnected the dial-up, and tried to get online per Airport and have been trying ever since. It shows good signal strength, tells me I am connected to the network, but Safari won't open and it tells me I am not connected to the internet. The network status on Airport says that "Airport has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect".
    Did I mess something up by using dial-up without turning Airport off? I usually don't turn it off; usually I don't have access to a dial-up, so I either have internet or I don't, at campground. Anybody have any ideas about this?
    Thanks.

    Another piece of the puzzle: yesterday afternoon I took the laptop to a place where I knew I had gotten on the internet, and it still worked. Then this morning, back here at this campground, I tried again, and no go. Then I noticed in the list of networks one called "default". I clicked on it, not really expecting anything, and Safari immediately fired up and boom, I was on the 'net.
    I don't know if this "default" is someone's private network or not; all I do know, is that the Airport card is working. But for some reason, not on that one particular network. I've done some reading back here, and found that a few others have experienced this same thing. So, for now, I have internet access, but don't understand why. Nor do I understand why I don't have it on the other network.
    I appreciate the reply and will make a note of that for future times, if this sould happen again somewhere else.

  • IBook G4 internet not working

    My iBook G4 is about 4 years old. It has been working fine but yesterday the internet stopped working, which is odd because it works on my MacBook. Any suggestions? I'm not very computer savvy. Thanks!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Is the airport icon still in the menu bar? Is it turned on?
    If so, go to System Preferences>Network and highlight Airport. Then click on "Assist me..." at the bottom and let the assistant help you to troubleshoot the connection.
    That's the first thing to try. If it doesn't work, or if your icon is missing from the menu bar, post back.
    Good luck!
