Airport sees network but cant access internet

One of the solution which worked for me.
Instead of using WEP security inside my modem, I used WPA string.
Then I was able to connect to internet from my Macbook pro using netcomm NB5Plus4W modem.

  • Connected to the Airport Express network, but cannot access internet

    I am using Airport Express (n) to create a wireless network in my apartment. It is connected via ethernet to a Motorola cable modem. My Macbook and iphone are on the network and I am able to connect to the internet without issue. I have a new Samsung N120 (wireless b/g) which finds and connects to the wireless network (Signal Strenth=excellent)but I am unable to connect to the internet. My Airport settings are for n, b/g compatible. The N120 has had no trouble connecting to other wireless networks. Samsung and the Cable Company can offer no insight, hoping for the Apple experts to help me figure this one out. Thanks!

    Welcome to the discussion area!
    Once you have the wireless connection established from the Samsung, have you power cycled your complete network? If not, power down every device including the Samsung DVD player. Order is not important.
    After a few minutes, start the modem first and let it run a few moments alone. Then power up the AirPort Express and let it run a few moments. Next, power up computers one at a time for a few minutes and check to make sure that you can establish internet connectivity. Finally, power up other devices one at a time and check for internet connectivity.
    Not sure what else to suggest as your post indicates that the AirPort Express is functioning correctly.

  • Full bars, 3g connected, but cant access internet

    please help me, i'm using TELKOMSEL (indonesian) i have data plans, and it's 4gb, the thing is, as i said Full bars, 3g connected, but cant access internet, i tried to access google using safari, chrome, but still the same message, network not available, those things.... PLEASE HELP ME..

    It sounds like a poor data connection. I get the same thing when I try to use AT&T here in my house. It shows 4G and 3 bars but I get little to no data at all. If that is what is happening to you, you can try another carrier if there is one.
    Here, I can get LTE at my house and about 10-15Mbps on T-Mobile. Switching carriers can make the difference.

  • Connected to home network, but cannot access internet on ipad

    I have got strong signal on home network but cannot access the internet. Tried resets, etc

    It could be a simple problem that needs a reset for the related devices. Other than that, try to control the security settings and passwords of your home network. You might be using WEP password protocol to connect your home network. Try to use WPA protocol instead of WEP. Maybe it will help to solve your problem.

  • My PC is connected to my airport by Ethernet. I can connect to the network, but not the internet. My wireless devices can access the internet

    My PC is connected to AirPort Extreme by ethernet, I can access the network, but not the internet. The wireless devices on the extreme can access the internet

    Hey DM,
    Is the Wireless(WL) router signal coming through the wired-router?
    My ISP requires that my Wireless Router is identified from their end. I use AirPort Express, so they need its MAC address from the router. Without that, my network will show up, but my ISP doesn't recognize it and won't allow it to route he internet. I don't know your exact situation though.
    Can other wireless computers access the internet? If they can through the WL router, then it might be the MacBook. If they can't, then you might want to contact your ISP and ask if they can see your wireless router?
    Let us know.

  • Airport Express/Mac work fine, Vista PC sees network, but will not connect

    I have been working on this for two days. What can I do? I have the latest firmware on the airport express and my utilities are up to date on both PC and Vista (airport s/w ver 5.3.2). It all worked before. Also, my brother wireless printer sees network, but will not connect.

    I have a similar issue. I have an AP Express set up for WPA2 Personal, G only. My Mac mini connects fine. My Dell mini9 with XP connects fine. My Dell desktop with Vista64 connects fine, but is local only, no internet.
    I have completely reset the AP to factory settings and reconfigured it using the Vista machine, but still no luck. What is going on? Anyone?

  • I have just acquired an iMac desktop. I want to sign on to my airport wireless network, but cannot remember the password. How can I access the password or reset it. I already use a MacBook Pro and an iPad on the network.

    I have just acquired an iMac desktop (about 4 years old). I want to connect to my Apple airport wireless network, but cannot remember the password. How can I access the password or, if necessary, reset it. I already use a MacBook Pro and an iPad on the network and don't want to jeopardize what already works well. I am not all that computer literate.

    How can I access the password or, if necessary, reset it.
    Read the user manual that came w/your Airport router or you can cross-post in one of the  AirPort Forums for instructions.

    Your router may not have given your iPad a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
    Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPad (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
    If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

  • Currently use Airport Express -1st Generation-to access internet -purchased 2014 Airport Extreme base station -can I import Express back up configuration to keep current settings . Or is it best to do new Airport Extreme as a new Network .

    Currently use Airport Express -1st Generation-to access internet -purchased 2014 Airport Extreme base station -can I import Express back up configuration to keep current settings . Or is it best to do new Airport Extreme as a new Network .

    Just spoke with Cisco about the router.  They said the router is compatible with the E1500.  They suggested that I contact Apple to see if their default IP address was that same as the router (192.168.1.1).  They told me I would have to change it if that was the case.  How would I do that?

  • Just got comcast triple play.  Original ipad sees network but will not connect.

    Just got comcast triple play.  Original ipad sees network but will not connect.

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none receive

    Hi,
    WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none received"... Help
    I have tried network diagnostics which doesnt help... The only other ting is, when I woke the computer up it said tat another device was using my IP... My wife had plugged her phone into the computer to charge etc but even when i turn wifi off on the phone there is no change... also in settings on the phone the IP address is different...

    The answer to your question is - neither!
    Your PC should to configured to obtain an IP address automatically, and to obtain DNS server IP addresses automatically, from the Airport Express. This is the way Windows (and Macs for that matter) are configued by default, and that is the way most people have their computers set up. If you manually configured your PC's IP address to be the same as your wife's Mac, it certainly explains why your PC is not able to access the internet.

  • I can connect to my wireless network but not the internet

    Hi. I've had my iBook G4 for just about a year and it's worked fantastically... until recently. My roommate has a PC and a linksys wireless router, and I've always been able to connect wirelessly to the internet until last week. I came home from work one day, and my iBook "saw" our wireless network and could "see" other computers on the network, but could not access the internet. My roommate had no problem accessing the internet through the wi-fi on his Dell laptop. So I zapped my p-ram and fiddled with some settings, but I still had the same problem.
    Next I re-installed OS X, and tried again. Still the same issue. Of course, by this time I'm getting frustrated, but then about 12 hours later I decide to try it again and it just works! Like there was never any problem....
    So anyway, it worked like a dream for about a week and now I have the same exact problem again! It connects to the network but not the internet. Is this a known problem? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
    Thanks,
    -joe.
    iBook G4, 1.2 ghz   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   256mb, combo drive

    i was having the same issue with all my devices. everything would cut out and i would have to reboot my router...my internet service provider is ATT and i have a Uverse router. i went to their online support and i was able to chat with a tech support agent and they ended up changing the channel of my router and that has resolved my problem....i am currently steaming pics from my iphoto library to my apple tv and my wife is streaming music from her iphone at the same time...support tech stated that usually they have the router set to a generic channel that usually has a lot of traffic.

  • Connected to network, but cant make calls.

    So my phone is connected to the network, but cant make or recieve calls or texts, as well as use the browser.
    I recently dissasembled it, exactly how the videos said to on youtube, so im confident i didnt break anything when doing it, but maybe a connection inside or something is loose? Any suggestions? 

    Hi,
    Go to connections, and select Mobile data options. Run the diagnostic test.
    If you can pass the tests Run the following:
    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    Go to options advanced options, Host Routing Tables, click to enter. DO NOT click on any listing.
    Press menu key, and select register now.
    You will get a verification email. Then go to email settings and send service books.
    Some models like the Curve 8330 and Pearl require logging into the carriers BIS site
    via PC.
    You will get an email per account. Perform the battery pull and see if the problem is
    resolved

  • Able to join wifi network, but cant connect to web or itunes

    Picked up 16 GB iPod Touch today at Best Buy. Able to sync music ok. No problems with sound quality using good earphones.
    Touch is good but takes a fair amount of pressure. Guess I will get adapted
    Able to join my home wifi network, but cant connect to an website or ITunes wifi- says it can't find the server. I entered my WEP key and pressed join. I have a wifi icon with 3 bars. Did I miss a step?
    Am converting a few tv shoes so I can test video

    Did you try putting it to sleep/turning it back on. It originally did that for me, I put in my key for my network (which is hard, as its many many digits and letters) and it said it couldn't find the server. I turned it off, and back on, started up the iTunes store, and it connected automatically and worked.
