Another Internet Connect damaged or incomplete

I had this message it occured when I tried Apple care to solve a problem, I was unable to get Dsl working and as they were working through it they had me double clik on Internet Connect up came "Internet Coonect is damaged or incomplete". They sugested reinstalling Mac X ( I did not like that thought).
I have a MacPro for a little over a year useing 10.4.9 with a dialup connection as you can imagine it is slow. When hooking up Dsl from the same company I had a problem hooking up a Speedstream 5260, was useing Ethernet 1 got message "the cable for Ethernet 1 is not plugged in" and somewhere in there I also got "could not find PPPoe server". I first asked the Isp if they could help and all setups seemed to be correct. I had Bell come in and lines are all good. I then took modem over to Isp and hooked up a laptop (Xp) used my id and it worked fine.
I did as was suggested by Niel to Freek earlierand used Pacifist for first time seemed like a life saver, the icon at least changed from an Application icon to the Internet Connection icon Ver.1.4.3. I have got to the second stage and not quite sure, the original disk is 10.4.7, I have saved a download of 10.4.8 and 10.4.9 ("MacOsxUpd10.4.9Intel.pkg") the combo's were a bit too long for dialup, do I just double click on "pkg" and cross my heart.
I also am experiencing lots of hangups on dialup for last few days,3 just writing this.
Thanks in advance

I have been up on dialup for 7 mins+ a record for the last few days with the header compression checked I think that is solved thanks. On question #1 I found an update to Internet connect on 10.4.8 only and have updated system with it. Will check out if works out with Dsl in next couple of days.
Thanks again I will have a few more questions I'm sure but it's a learning curve.

Another Internet connection problem with solariis dev express

I have the same problem, i was installed new solaris dev express , my ifconfig output detects my nic
and my name nic is nge0, but i dont connect to internet.
i was reading this forums but the result is null.
i have a cable modem and i using a ethernet connection.
i use this command:
*#ifconfig nge0 dhcp start*
the result is null the dhcp doesnt assing an ip to my nic
then i create a */etc/hostname.nge0* file and follow comments that i seeing on this forums
*#uname -n > /etc/hostname.nge0* ...too i create a */etc/dhcp.nge0*
again i wrote:
*#ifconfig nge0 dhcp start*
but no , the result is null
then i follow more comments on this solaris forums and i added the dns in */etc/resolv.conf*
but the result still null
later i check the gateway using the comand
*#netstat -nr*
but only i see my loopback ip --> 127.0.0.1
too i used the command
*#sys-unconfig* , reboot ..mmm no
but still the same problem
my question is how to set the internet connection using a cable modem that workkssss!!!!!!!?
my computer is a 32bit machine with solaris devexpress and my cable modem.
how to tell to solaris which is my gateway?
i know that the command in my linux box is: route add default gw ip
what i have to do?
i modify a */etc/nsswitch.conf* and i added a dns word after files in hosts line.
create a */etc/defaultrouter* <-- this is to when i have a internal lan ip
in the */etc/hostname.nge0* put only my hostname
*/etc/hostname.nge0* <-- myhostname
or
*/etc/hostname.nge0* <-- inet myhostname
what is true? what is correct? i wsas reading about solaris offical docs about dhcpagent but i dont have clear my ideas.
please someone that you know how to set the internet connection on solaris dev exprres using the dhcp that serves on cable modem.
i dont believe that be more complicated than Linux or FreeBSD
Thanks.

I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
(OPTIONAL) 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.
Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes.
Power-up the base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes.
Power-up your computer(s).
In this basic configuration, computers connected to the base station, either by wire or wireless (as appropriate for the base station type), 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.

Another internet connection failure

I have an iMac G5, Macbook, and PC Laptop hooked up to an Airport Express Base Station. I will suddenly lose internet connection (not network connection) with the iMac while the Macbook and PC run fine. If I turn off the G5's airport card and turn it back on, it internet will start running again, but only for a minute or two. I have seen many posts on here with the exact same problem, but have yet to see a solution. Is there some type of buffer that is getting full? I can't figure out why resetting the G5's airport will only fix it for a few minutes.

You would do better re-posting over in the AirPort Express Forums where the Airport users hang out.

Another Internet connection issue

The internet on my MBP works maybe 60% of the time. Either pages don't load or I get sent to my ISPs page saying "x" website cannot be found (actually, now the OpenDNS version). All other Macs (all running the latest OSX Leopard updates) and PCs in the house work perfectly fine, as does Vista in BootCamp.
I've seen the other topics, but nothing - and I mean NOTHING - has fixed this. Here is a list of things I tried:
Switched to OpenDNS on my computer AND router (an 802.11n Airport Extreme).
Ping every 5 seconds (didn't help so I stopped this).
Repaired Permissions.
Disabled log-in items.
Reset PRAM.
And here is the kicker... performed an Archive and Install (and then tried the above again).
Nothing. I can't even Sync 1Password, MobileFinder or BeatMaker on my iPhone with my Mac because of this. What on earth is going on here? I have a friend that has the same issue, so it has to be something in Leopard. Short of a clean install (I even have my doubts there) is there any hope?
Thanks a lot!

There's always the possibility it could be a hardware issue with the AirPort Extreme card in your MBP.
Do you see any messages in your /var/log/system.log that might explain the issues?

Macbook can't be found with any internet connection except with wi-fi turned on

Just weard! - I can't find my macbook on find my iphone without wi-fi turned on.
Why can and is it normal my macbook only can be found on "find my iphone" when wifi is on while I still have another internet connection activated on my mac without wi-fi??
Is there something one can do to find my mac - if stolen - when it has any kind of internet connection with wi-fi turned off???

Load Balance unequal internet connections

We have a single site customer with a 2821 router with a T1 internet connection. They recently added another internet connection which is a wireless broadband connection with 2Mbps/1Mbps rates. My goal is to be able to utilize both internet connections to load balance the traffic as well as using the T1 as the primary and the wireless as secondary if the T1 goes down. We have a NAT pool setup and some static translations on the T1 addresses for things like the internal mail server, VPN, etc. What are some of the things to be cautious about when trying to set this up?
Thanks,
Kevin

Kevin
There are several things to be cautious about in the situation that you describe. One is the possible impact of assymetric paths. This occurs when data goes out over one connection and the response comes back over the other connection. Another possible issue is whether the translations that you are doing for traffic out the T1 would also work for the secondary connection or whether different translations are called for.

HT1491 I've tried downloading 3 seprate songs thur iTunes on my iPhone 4S and every time it says download incomplete and ask to retry but continues the say message. I've restarted my phone, checked internet connection, closed out of the app, etc.

I've tried downloading 3 seprate songs thur iTunes on my iPhone 4S and every time it says download incomplete and ask to retry but continues the same message. I've restarted my phone, checked internet connection, closed out of the app, etc.

Hello Bdev15,
I would be concerned too if the songs I purchased from iTunes were not downloading to my iPhone. You have taken some great troubleshooting steps already, and thank you for providing the details of the steps you too. I have a few additional suggestions to get it downloaded to your iPhone.
First, I recommend checking to see if the download was interrupted:
If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
Enter your account name and password if prompted.
Tap the blue download arrow to resume.

If the songs still do not download, next I recommend downloading the songs when connected to another network. For example, if you are using the cellular network, you could switch to Wi-Fi, or you could try an alternate Wi-Fi network. Follow the steps in the section titled "iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch > Music" in the article below to download the songs:

If you are still not able to download the songs, you can report an issue with these purchases using the steps in this article:

My ipod 5th gen says it is connected to the internet and i can go on apps that require an internet connection but whe i try to use the weather or another app that uses your current location it cant find me???

If you open the Maps app where does that say you are located?
For location the iPod uses the location of nearby routers that are in Apple's database of routers and their location. Thus it appears that Apple's database is incorrect. You do not have to be connected to the router, just within range.
Apple periodically updates their database based on information they obtain from iPhones, The iPhone has to have turned on the option to send info to Apple. no one has found another way to get the location of a router added/corrected.
You can confirm that by going to well-know place with wifi like Starbucks or McDonalds

Why does my iPhone not show up in iTunes on a mac that has a shared internet connection from another mac?

I have what I would consider a difficult question. I called Apple Care and after she spoke to a senior advisor,the representative ended up saying it wasn't possible.
Having said that, I'm sure this is not a difficult question for people with networking expertise.
Setup
So...I have a MacBook receiving a WiFi signal via AirPort.
In System Preferences, I have turned on Internet sharing (share airport over Ethernet).
I connected the Ethernet port on my MacBook to the Ethernet port on my MDD PowerMac G4.
At this point, I can successfully browse the web, perform software updates, and view other computers and iTunes libraries on my network from my G4.
Goal
However, in iTunes on my G4 I would like to use iTunes DJ.
Tried
So...I click on iTunes DJ.
I set the settings (button in bottom right) to allow guest remotes, etc.
I turned on iTunes Home Sharing (logged into the same account as by iPhone).
Problem
However, from the Remote app on my iPhone, I am unable to see the library on my G4.
Also, if I want to pair my iPhone Remote app with iTunes on my G4, I click add Library in the Remote app, but iTunes on the G4 never displays my iPhone in the left column (although I am able to see all other iTunes libraries being shared on the network).
Thus, I cannot connect to iTunes as a guest Remote, nor can I connect as paired remote.
I have successfully done both of these things with computers connected directly to my modem, as well as with computers connected via WiFi.
The problem is connecting devices to computers that get their internet connection though another computer via internet sharing.
Question
So my question is about Internet sharing itself. Is it not a fully featured ad-hoc network? Does it only provide browsing capabilities and the ability to browse networked computers, but NOT devices such as an iPhone? I don't see the difference; my iPhone is on the same network as the computers, so why is there no communication between it and computers that gain their Internet connection through another computer?
I really hope someone out there who is an expert in networking can help me out with this. Or if it truly is impossible, if someone could explain to me why that is the case, I would also appreciate it.
ps. I usually have my MacBook sharing its Internet connection through an old router that I am using as a switch because I share the connection with three other computers. And if it isn't obvious, the modem is downstairs, and the MacBook, old router being used as a switch, and other computers are upstairs where there is no Ethernet wired.
Thank you in advance for any help.

I installed the new 7.0 on my ipad and now I cannot get my internet connection to work. Any ideas, I have already tried rebooting but no luck. Another useless apple update that doesnt work?

TC: The Internet connection is currently in use by another computer...

So, I have a TC connected to a Netopia ADSL modem from Earthlink. Ocassionally, when the computer has left the wireless network, I will come home to find the following page with the Earthlink logo at the top:
“The Internet connection is currently in use by another computer
( 172.16.1.10 ).
Enter your DSL Account logon password to switch the Internet
connection to this computer.”
If I enter the password and click "Obtain Connection", I am taken to another page that says that I can now access the Internet, blah blah blah... and another button that says "Release Connection".
First of all, it does not seem like that should be happnening, but no big deal as it takes 5 seconds out of my day to work around. The bigger problem is that only one computer can be connected to the Internet at a time. If a friend with another laptop comes over and tries to access the Internet at the same time as me, he will get the same Earthlink page popping up. If he enters the password, he will kick off the first computer and on and on and on...
I called Elink support and they, of course, told me it is a TC issue. I called Apple and they, of course, told me it is an ISP issue. I suspect that it has something to do with my TC settings (bridge mode, maybe?), but have no idea what I am doing there.
Anyone have any ideas for me? I have friends coming into town this weekend and we won't be able to share stupid YouTube clips as efficiently with only one computer!

There is nothing you can do.. if you want more than one device connected then you must double NAT. This is common practice with Satellite providers.. I am not sure why they cannot afford to buy a block of public IP.. maybe it is deliberate to prevent people using servers.
Just select ignore in the airport utility.. for the double NAT problem.. this is the equivalent to sticking your head in the ground and therefore your problems don't exist. (your opponents cannot see you if you have a bird brain!!) Of course when the opportunity comes up.. move. Go to fibre or 3g/4g with a reliable ISP who hands out public IP. Until then tighten your belt.. short commons are the order of the day.

I've forgotten my pass-code to my Ipod touch 4g and when I try to restore and update it on my itunes library the internet connection cuts out. Is there another way to fix this problem? Cheers

I've forgotten my pass-code to my Ipod touch 4g and when I try to restore and update it on my itunes library the internet connection cuts out so this is not an option. Is there another way to fix this problem? Cheers

The only way is to connect the iPod to a computer with has an internet connection and iTunes and restore the iPod. Use as friiend's computer or make an appointment at ther Geniuds Bar of an Apple store.

My macbook air is not getting internet connection through our home wifi It was working fine yesterday until I took the Air out of the house and used it on another wifi connection.

My macbook air is not getting internet connection through our home wifi. It was working fine yesterday until I took the Air out of the house and used it on another wifi connection. One question is how to delete some of the networks that I don't use. Would too many networks cause the internet connection to fail?
Thanks.

Would too many networks cause the internet connection to fail?
It shouldn't but sometimes deleting the list of networks actually does solve the problem you are describing. Have you turned WiFi off and then back on on the computer?

Resetting Airport Extreme disabled my home network. Now when i attempt to get to internet with iPad, or iPhone, I see an Earthlink (ISP) window with message: The internet connection is currently in use by another computer (nun.nn.n.nn)

Resetting Airport Extreme disabled my home network. Now when i attempt to get to internet with iPad, or iPhone, I see an Earthlink (ISP) window with message: The internet connection is currently in use by another computer (nun.nn.n.nn) Enter your DSL Account logon psassword to switch the internet connection to this computer. If I do that, other messages follow. I am usually able to switch connection, but can have only one device on internet at a time. Tried to correct problem using Airport Utility, but failed.

Unfortunately, there is mass confusion about whether a device might be a modem or a modem/router since the terms are mixed up all the time. Even though a device might have only one Ethernet port, it can still be a router.
If this is your "modem".......
http://reviews.cnet.com/routers/netopia-cayman-3341-router/4507-3319_7-30484785. html
It is not a modem.....it is a modem/router. If that is the case, then the AirPort Extreme is not the only router on your network....it is one of two routers, and it should be configured to operate in Bridge Mode.
Does this device appear to be your "modem"?
