Broadband line ok but no internet - help please

my broadband died 13 days ago and I'm struggling to get it resolved - any help much appreciated.
I've tested with 4 different routers (2 I had and 2 are brand new), 4 different micro splitters and 3 different ADSL cables. I've tested on 3 phone sockets in the house and on the test socket on the primary phone socket in the house.... all 4 routers say there is no internet.
D-Link router - says "LCP No Response" when trying to connect (doesn't even get as far as authenticating)
Zeyxl router (provided by ISP) - solid red light indicacting no internet.
Apple Airport Extreme - the airport utility says that no adsl cable is connected...
Belkin N300 Router - solid red light indicating no internet
My ISP are insisting that everything is fine at their end.... The first BT engineer said everything was fine and left... the second BT engineer said that the line was fine but acknowledged there was an issue with internet access...
Any suggestions? My gut feeling is that there must be something wrong in the exchange but I am starting to feel a little bit caught between ISP and BT.
thanks

Can connect to network but not internet. Please Help!!!!!!!!!

I have a Thinkpad T-60p and have encountered a serious problem; I am unable to connect to the internet. The Thinkpad will recognize and connect to wireless networks but when I go to actually open a webpage it does not open. I spent hours troubleshooting the problem to no avail. My other laptop connects to the internet fine, so I do not think it is an issue with my router or modem. I also went to my neighbors and I was unable to connect to the internet even though I could connect to his network; once again my second computer does not have a problem. I tried what I could in the Thinkvantage wireless software but I am not that familiar with it. When I use the test connection option it just reads, “unable to connect to internet” but I have a strong signal to my network. I then tried a wired connection directly to my cable modem and my neighbors; once again it showed that I have a connection, but still will not connect to the internet. I tried disabling my Firewall and Virus software and still could not connect. I have shutdown, unplugged and reset everything. I still receive the same results. I am not sure what has happened, I have not installed any new software or hardware recently. The computer has been working great up until this morning. I ran my virus software and a free online scan as well, nothing had been detected. I called tech support and they said it was a software issue to either pay $100 for help or post in the forum. The only other option I can think of is a complete systems restore, which I am trying to avoid. Anyone have any suggestions?
Please Help,
P.

I will try that when I get home from work, thank you for the advice. However,I did notice that when it attempts to connect it shows the IP Address in the IE window bottom left corner. In the past it would always read connecting to "website name" but since the problem started it shows the IP address instead of the actual name.

Base Station appears to work but no internet? Please HELP!

Last night my internet and email was working fine. This morning I got no signal. I called the cable company and went through their diagnostics and determined that it is the Base Station I'm having problems with. When the modem is connected directly to my computer everything works fine, when I use the wireless I can't get on the internet or get email. The strange thing is that it says my airport is working and connected to the network. It also says that the basestation is connected to the internet but when I try to open a page I get nothing. Any suggestions?

I tried to setup my mother in laws brand new iBook, airport express and modem yesterday. I got it working when connected to the modem over ethernet and then set about adding the airport express. The first thing it did was upload verion 5.6 of the firmware and I then spend a number of hourse trying to get the thing working but it completely refused. The diagnostiocs said I was connected to the internet, but I could not connect to any servers. I called it a day and went back home.
Later last night I thought I would double check my own airport extreme settings to see if I could work out what I had done wrong. When I connected it asked if I wanted to upload the latest firmware so I said ok. I ended up with my setup in exactly the same situation. I then realised that it must be the 5.6 firmware that is causing the problem - but I couldn't even get on the apple website to find out what they were saying about it.
Anyway just got on now over dialup and there doesn't seem to be any mention of this problem other than this thread.
Has anyone else successfully uploaded 5.6 without getting this issue?
I'm currently downloaded 5.5.1 so I'll see if that fixes things.
I also noticed that I can't find a screen that lets you download 5.6 anywhere. Does anyone know if apple have withdrawn it?

Won't connect to internet, help please

I am back in my apartment at school and they replaced the cable with just another one, almost the same thing, but the problem is that when i connect the cable straight to my CPU it works fine, but when i plug the cable into my airport express it just blinks amber and it shows the connection and even says i am connected but it won't connect to the internet, please help me. my brother will be here tomorrow and i need to get this wireless setup. thanks so much for the help.

Connect the modem to your Airport Express. Then pull power to both for at least five minutes. Then plug power into the modem and wait a minute. Then plug power into the Airport Express and wait a minute. Then try internet access again.

N97 connecting to Internet help please

I got my N97 on Friday and could connect to the internet fine, but saturday morning came - no internet connection available. I rang my contract provider who kindly told me that becasue the N97 is a new phone they don't have any settings or configurations for the phone yet!
Please please could someone tell me how to get the internet back working.
Thanks in advance

Maybe your operator´s internet site can help you with that.
I had a similar problem as well and I took the configuration of the N95 and adpated it the my new phone. Of course this can not be done automatically, but has to be done manually.
If you tell us what operator, and from what country, you are, I might be able to help you.

Wifi works on Windows laptop but not macbook - help please!!

Hi! I'm a new customer to Verizon having just moved to the US from the UK. We have the DSL service with the 7500 Westell router. I've set up the wireless and it works fine on my husband's laptop (IBM thinkpad with Windows XP) but my MacBook just will not connect properly. I can see our network in the list, and it will connect, but either it drops the connection immediately after connecting, or stays connected and the internet doesn't work. The ethernet connection works absolutely fine. Any advice gratefully received!
thanks in advance,
Kate

Quick quote from the FIOS area..
http://forums.verizon.com/t5/FiOS-Internet/Ipod-Touch-quot-Unable-to-connect-quot/m-p/12508#M1968
remember that all apple products use lower-case letters in the passcode (WEP KEY), and use zero's ( 0 ), not capital O. Then you may need to, instead of just trying to connect to your network, go to 'create a new network' and enter all info there to build the new connection, remembering that you are using dhcp. Or you may be able to, after clicking on your network, find out how to enter your security code (WEP KEY) (passcode).
If you disable your passcode then anybody can use your wireless network
While you are not on FIOS, I hope this helps...

HT201412 My ipod screen is black with white and gray lines all over; i need help please!My ipod also won't respond to any button pressing and nothing shows/syncs on itunes

I was using my ipod when the screen froze,then it went black/gray with messedup pixels and lines everywhere.I already tried plugging it in and connecting it to my computer,but nothings shows up in itunes, and my ipod doesn't respond to any buttons.Plus it won't go off.Someone please help; i don't want to have to replace it.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Line connected but no internet

So, on my HH4 I have an orange power light and a red B. If I go into advanced settings I can see that the line is connected with a downstream of 6880kbps and an upstream of 448kbps. However, on the home tab the internet lights keep circling and saying connecting. Is this an exchange fault does anyone know? Cheers.
Solved!

Just done a full reset. No change. Looking at the log, it sends and receives the Configuration ACK then CHAP receive Challenge, CHAP receive success: authentificaton failure.
Then its an exchange or server problem, nothing you can do apart from ring the helpdesk.
Have you checked your phone line to see if its working on the correct number? Its possible you have a crossed line with another non-BT broadband customer?
Ring your line from a mobile to see if the phone rings.
