Apple tv is connected to the network but won't connect to internet?

My apple tv 3 is connected to our wireless network but will not connect to the internet. I also cannot turn on home sharing. All the other wireless devices in our house have no problem with the internet. I have hooked the apple tv up to the computer and restored the factory defaults but that did not help. Any suggestions?

have you tried connecting using ethernet to see if it's a wifi issue ?
and have you verified that the required ports are allowed on the network ?

Not able to connect to wifi using iPhone 4 with OS5, sees the network but won't connect.

Recently upgraded my iPhone 4 to the OS5 and I keep having sporadic issues with connecting to my home wifi, it sees the network but never connects. I turned of Location Services and Cellular Data for that had worked sometimes, but now it just keeps spining and never connects. I tried to reset network settings, reset my wifi router and reset my phone and nothing, it will connect at my church for example and other places but not at home. I have MAC addressing security set on my router and I verified my iPhone MAC address is authorized. Any other suggestions?

Try restarting your router first, turn it off for a minute then back on. then go to settings on your phone, then wifi, tap on the blue arrow to the right of your wifi 's name, then tap forget this network. Then go to the home screen, Then hold the home and off button down until the apple symbol comes up. Then go back into wifi and try to connect.

IPhone 5 Wi-Fi problems: "sees" the network, but won't connect

Hi everybody,
For the past 3 days I've been having sudden problems with my brand new iPhone 5 (version 6.0.2 {10A551}).
It just won't connect to the internet, no matter what I do. It actually "sees"the availble networks, but when I put the password in, it says"Unable to connect to the network".
I tried Resetting Network settings and All Settings, to no avail.
The irony is that I get Facebook notifications, App of the day Notifications, occasional mails, but nothing else. Email sync is erratic, and always with the little round circle where the WiFi icon should be. No Whatsapp, Viber, etc.
I'm totally baffled and equally desperate.
Can anyone help me please?
Many thanks in advance and Happy New Year to all thread readers.
Joyce

After connecting to Bluetooth keyboard, iPad 2 will not connect to Internet (wifi) at all. Wifi is ok, have tried turning off bltooth, wifi on iPad. It sees the network but won't connect. Help? Have also reset network settings etc

My iPad wifi was working great until I I connected it by Bluetooth to a keyboard (zagg). It was the first time I'd used Bluetooth
Immediately Internet was dropped on my ipad. My iPhone was and is still connected no prob. And I cannot get the iPad wifi to work again....at all!!!
This is major as I am away from my desktop for three months. Any fix cannot involve being at my desktop with iTunes which is 10,000 km away
So far This is what I've tried based on other discussions-
-turned Bluetooth off and unpaired to keyboard which was also turned off
- turned iPad wifi off and on (several times)
- forgot the network I useArrive Jul 19 depart Aug 25th. Originally it was Sept 9.
-- reset network settings
What happens is that the iPad sees the network and I enter my password. But, instead of getting "check mark" indicating a successful connections it keeps "circling". Sometimes the airport bars will show, but disappear or flicker. It never connects with a check noted in settings. Any attempts to use internet confirm there is no connection
My network is not a cafe or public network. It is one I regularly use here at my family's home where I am visiting
Any ideas!

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

My mac can see the network but won't connect to the server

I have an intel Imac. The network connect is working but very squirrelly. I see most objects on the network. I can see the server but it will not let me connect.
I go to another mac and I can connect to the server. So I think its my mac 10.7.5 is the OS

Probably nothign to do with your iMac or OS X, have you attempted resetting your router? Also you haven't stated what messages you are getting or any other information. If this is at your work then I'd suggest contacting your IT support person, the connection to your network may be on their end.

Rebooted my WRT160N, now my laptop connects to my network but won't connect to the internet

I forgot my original network password so I rebooted my wirless router, now my computer reconizes my home's wireless network and connects to it (accepted the new password and everything), but when I open my browser it can't connect to the internet. My internet connection still works when I plug my laptop directly into my cable modem, and my laptop says I'm connected to my wireless network, so I don't know what the problem is here.
I've been tearing my hair out for the last few hours trying to figure out a way to fix this, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You
Solved!

Go here to verify your cable setup.

I had to move my modem and router, when I reconnected them my desktop connected fine but I can not get the iPad to connect to the internet. It recognizes the network but won't connect to internet.

Hello lucky3480;
I don't know what else to do. I'm thinking of possibly returning the unit and purchasing a wireless internet card to install in the tower. Any help you can provide would be great. Even suggesting a good wireless card at this point
Well it looks like you're not having any luck at all with this AX set up but please don't give on it just yet, it's a good choice for extending your Network. Your on the right path, just going backwards and in the wrong direction. You'll learn a lot about stuff this way but may lead to other issues.
Before I continue, let me know if you have returned the AX or still need help. Here's a link to Apple's PDF about [Designing AirPort Networks|http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/Designing_AirPort_Networks10.5-Windows.pdf] Click on it to open in Safari but then save it to your desktop. Now open it from your desktop and start reading Chapter 3, page 42.

Apple TV connects to the network but cannot connect to the internet.

Apple TV connects to the network but cannot connect to the internet. Works on other Apple TV's we have just not this new one. Defective??? Thank you!

This might help:
Apple TV (2nd gen.) saw my wireless network but did not accept my password (gave a network error message). It fixed instantly doing this:
Made a note of the Apple TV's MAC address. Get it by pressing Menu on the remote, then Settings > General > About. It's called "WiFi address."
Use your browser on a network connected computer to go to your router settings (usually 192.168.1.1).
Under "Wireless > Wireless MAC Filter" (or something similar) do these steps:
Enable Wireless MAC filter
Enable "Permit PCs listed below to access the wireless network"
Enter the Apple TV's MAC address
Click "Save Setting"
When I did this the network connection immediately started working.
Note: These instructions are based on a Cisco Wireless-N Broadband, model WRT160Nv2, firmware v2.0.02.

I installed a new wifi router and airport will not connect automatically to it. It sees the network but will not connect unless I tell it to.

I installed a new wifi router and airport will not connect automatically to it. It sees the network but will not connect unless I tell it to. I can't find anywhere in the utility or network preferences that will allow me to choose this router as the default. How do I fix this? BTW I'm using Lion.

Are there any previous networks that you have used that have the same password as Molly? YES
Using System Preferences > Network > AirPort Advanced again, you need to remove any listings of previous networks that used the same password as Molly. Click the name of the network and click the - (minus) button at the bottom of the list of connections.
Also delete any other networks (except Molly at the top of the list) that might have used the same name...Molly in the past.
Delete any other networks that you no longer need so that your Mac will search for networks more quickly
Click OK, then click Apply
Open KeyChain Access and look for a listing of any old networks that you no longer need. Click to highlight the name of the network, then click the Delete Key on your computer.
Then look for any old networks that might have used the name Molly in the past and do the same for them.
Then look for any old networks that might have used the same password as the password for your "new" Molly network and delete them in the same way
Click the KeyChain Access menu just next to the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the computer screen
and then click KeyChain First Aid
Enter the main administrator password for the Mac you are using and highlight the Repair button. Then click Start. You will see a message that repairs have been completed
Quit Keychain Access
Power down the entire network...all devices...order is not important
Power up the modem first, then your main router, the other devices one at a time
Log on to Molly and see if the Mac remembers it after a few tries. If not, I'm afraid that you will need to change the name of the wireless network and password on your router due to corruption issues on the Mac. You have done everything possible without re-installing the complete operating system.

Have you tried clearing Safari? Clear Safari, close Safari completely and reboot your iPad. Try again.
Go to Settings>Safari>Cookies and Data.
If you are running iOS 5 or iOS 6 you close apps like this. Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
If you are running iOS 7, you close apps this way. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

My apple tv is connected to the network, how do i connect it to my mac

Have you turned on Home Sharing etc?

Unable to receive internet connection over wifi connection. Shows that I am connected to the network, but do not have internet access. Checked my firewall and turned it off. What else am I missing or should be doing differently?

You might want to try resetting your router and your modem - just unplug the cords, leave them unplugged for about 3-5 minutes and then replug the modem and then the router in that order.
This may or may not correct your problem - call back if it doesn't.

I'm connected to the network, but still can't get online!

I use airport to connect to the internet in my home. I have a very strong signal and my computer says I'm connected to the network, but I still can't connect to the internet. It just stopped working. Running diagnostics doesn't help- it just tells me to restart the device, which I've done over and over to no avail.
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Am a newbie but somethings may work here, Go to dock preferences and to network and to your airport connection window.
You have a green light signal in network status window? If it is yellow or red it is unavailable. If your connection is full of traffic, this may effect connection.
In window you may need to type in optional search domains. Your provider should tell you this no one else~ They would also walk you through your connection failures. If it is yellow and you connect to your provider's router and don't have your own router, this number may not appear in your connection information. You need to tell them their router is down so they can fix it. They may not find out if pings come back. Pings may also be cached (I am not sure but it might) so it may take them a while to find out if you don't tell them. I would call your provider. Maybe empty your preferences in your browser. You may have cookies or garbage to empty there. Use another browser.
