Airtunes works, internet doesn't?
I recently moved my airport from one cable connection in my house to another. the internet was working fine before i moved it. i moved it closer to my stereo in order to use the airtunes feature, which is working beautifully with a steady green status light on the airport. i know that the internet signal is good because i've connected via the ethernet wire that connects the modem to the airport. i've attempted resetting the airport, unplugging the modem and the airport and replugging them in various sequences and lengths of time. i've also used airport setup assistance, all to no avail. i would very much appreciate any assistance with this matter.

Agreed - seems impossible. I still think the underlying problem is most likely a misconfigured Airport Express or a connection to the ISP that has not been properly reset. But when all other possibilities have been exhausted, and since this Airport Express was previously working perfectly with the same modem in the same house...
In your situation:
Since you have been assigned a static IP address (and presumably you have also been supplied with the required subnet mask, router/gateway IP address, and domain name server IP address(es)) - you need to run the Airport Admin Utility, select your Express, click Configure, click the Internet tab, select to "connect using ethernet" and "configure manually", then enter all these parameters into the fields provided, then update settings to the Airport Express. As for your Macs, they should all still be configured to obtain an IP address automatically using DHCP in System Preferences->Network->Show Airport->TCP/IP tab.

Airtunes working - Internet NOT
I have a road runner router with two macs on it... all is good
Have airtunes working on it's network and AM streaming Itunes to stereo.
I want to connect TO the airtunes BASE from my wireless laptop .... The laptop DOES see the airtunes network and can log on _ BUT the airtunes network doesn't seem to be getting INTERNET connection info from my road runner model and is essentially DEAF to the actual internet.
Help?Try pulling the power plug from the AX for a minute, then plugging it back in.

Airport works - internet doesn't?
I recently picked up an iBook G4 running 10.4 for a family member. I checked it out at my home on my personal Airport Express and it worked flawlessly. He took it home, bought an Airport Express, and had it configured at the Apple Store so it would be plug and play when he got home.
Surprise surprise, Safari says "You are not connected to the Internet".
I already had him verify his AE was selected as the preferred network, and made sure he reset his cable modem so he had an IP address assigned to the AE. Still can't connect. I've been trying to walk him through everything to make sure he has things set properly but since I'm on 10.6.8 my control panes don't compare to his. I've been searching in vain for screen shots/caps that have the 10.4.9 Network control panels so I can walk him through but I can't find the proper ones. Finally, this is the first time that Apple's help library is absolutely unhelpful. Go check out the "Network Diagnostics" info sheet for 10.4 if you want a laugh.
1. Does anyone know what could be going on with this thing?
2. Is there a 10.4 networking setup guide anywhere?Anytime you change networking hardware, it is always a good idea to perform a complete power recycle of your networking components. The fact that this AirPort is being used with a different modem than when it was tested at the Apple Store is most likely the issue.
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. -
Wifi works, internet doesn't
Wifi works perfectly, I lived at home and I would try and get on the internet with FULL bars but nothing like itunes, firefox, safari would work for me. I just moved and our Wifi works perfectly fine and still the same issue...
Do other devices connect to the internet?
Power off and then back on your model and router
Can you try connecting via Ethernet?
Try creating another location. See:

IBook g4 ran out of disk space, internet doesn't work
Hi.
I have an iBook G4, running OSX 10.3. Yesterday, we were looking at some pictures on the machine and we put too much stuff on hard drive; iBook said it ran out of space (presumably for virtual memory) and then froze.
We rebooted, did a big archive/clean-up (ten gigs free, now). It ran sluggishly, I zapped the pram and nvram, it runs well. Now, we can't get the internet to work through our Airport. But here's the weird thing:
-We have 4 bars. Airtunes works perfectly.
-Our other iBook (G3, 10.4) connects to the internet just fine.
-If we connect to our neighbor's airport, we get internet but it's really slow, slower than usual.
Any thoughts?
GortmendHere is the info from the user under normal operation.
1. HDD Size: 74G
2. Data used: 63G
3. Free disk space: 11G
4. Two OS version running: OS X 10.3.9 and OS 9.2
Here is the user report:
When he access internet or check email, out of disk space message will alert him after a period. And he notice that the HDD has only few mega bytes free disk space. For this moment, he need to restart computer and free disk capacity will return to 11G. Thanks.

Wifi works perfect on iMac, internet doesn't
Hello everybody
i'm having a quite frustrating problem. The iMac details are on the picture above.
Maybe it is a cause of the problem I don't know, but a week ago I updated to Yosemite. Since three days, at some random moment the internet stops working.
First thought: there is something wrong with the router or with the modem. Restarting them both didn't change anything. The only thing that worked was restarting the iMac (something I dislike, it's very 'windowsish') but since yesterday that results in working internet for 2 minutes or nothing and the internet stops working again.
Also good to know: the internet on the two other macs on the network works fine, the same for the internet on phones or iPad (which I'm using to post this message). So the internet and wifi works fine on all devices except the iMac. So what's broken? Something with the internetboe something with the wifi? I can assure the wifi on the mac works properly. The sign gives full wifi reception and I can handle Sonos from the iMac, which uses the wifi network.
So it seems to me that there is something wrong with the internet on my iMac. It's also not just Safari, cause firefox and chrome doesn't open pages neither.
The network assistent can't help me either cause it just suggest to restart modems and routers (what I already did different times). I tried to find solutions in other discussions but fixtures they suggested there didn't work. People mentionned things with the keychain acces to reinstall passwords, to make new locations in the network preferences, I followed multiple fixtures: same result didn't work.
Hoping somebody can help me, thanks.Hello everybody

Files deleted from the Library and now internet doesn't work?
Hello,
I'm new here and this is probably going to sound dumb but... my father deleted some files from the Library by mistake and now internet doesn't work in his computer. Everything seems normal, but the webpages don't load (we tried lots of pages and 3 browsers). If you try to update any software it can't connect to the internet either.
He reinstalled the system (it's Mountain Lion, I think) but it didn't worked (it was a partial reinstallation, without losing the data). He also tried restarting and pressing CMD-R but nothing happened.
Any ideas on how to solve this problem? Thank you so much in advance! (and sorry for any typos, English is not my native language)Hello Eleone, & a warm Welcome!

My iPod 5th gen connects to wifi but the internet doesn't work.
So we were watching netflix on the ps4 and something happened and now my ipod will connect to the wifi but the internet doesn't work. everything else connects just fine to the internet just not my ipod. I've renew my lease, reset my settings and network, forgot my network and rejoined, turn my ipod completely off and back on, turned my wifi off then back open. The IP address is 192.xxx.x.xx
its the ipod 5th generation 16gb. With the latest updateDoes the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:

If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I am connected to wifi but Internet doesn't work.
I am connected to wifi but Internet doesn't work. Software updated and settings reset. Still no luck. I pod touch
Despite the connection indication you may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
Your router may not have given your iPod a valid IP address. To check on this go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address shown 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 for this can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPod (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. -

Iphone says 4G but internet doesn't work
My iphone has full bars and 4G icon but my internet has no connection.
The phone is about one year old. I can make and receive calls. I noticed this problem about a month ago. Once I have WiFi connection, internet works fine. It's really annoying when the phone says 4G (internet connection), but internet doesn't work. If the AT&T network is not available, why does my iphone say 4G? Thanks
