Can connect to wireless router but not to the internet

Please Help, I have a WRT150N and I can connect to my wireless router by it will not connect to the internet from there, even though the internet, wireless, and security lights are lit up. If I plug a cord into the back of the router and then into my computer, I can connect to the internet, but once I disconnect the cable, I can still find and connect to my wireless router, but it will not connect to the internet from here. Under access it says "Local Only", I have the security type set to "Shared" under the security properties, and set to "WEP" with WEP key #1 entered. I have spent about 4 hours working on this problem now and could really use some help. Thanks.

Type ipconfig /all in command prompt(cmd.exe) to see whether it displays valid and correct IP, netmask, gateway and DNS info. If not, take a look on these cannot connect to wireless network problem and using ping to troubleshoot network problem articles to get more ideas. Hope it helps..

Can connect to Airport Express but not to the internet

Please help
My Airport Express shows the solid green light. I am also able to connect to it and use AirTunes on my HiFi.
However I cant connect to the internet. If I plug in my laptop to the router directly the internet works fine. So it is not a router problem.
Any idea?

After following your instruction, I am not able to connect to the airport express anymore. I can still see the network but it is somehow unable to read the IP address.
When I try to get to the Airport utility it shows the base station but do not let me get into the configuration and shows an error message -4.
The only option I have then is to reset the AE

Vista connects to Time Capsule but not to the internet.

Hi. Please help, I am pulling my hair out. I have just bought a Time Capsule to use as a base station to connect my laptops, PS3, iPhone etc to the internet. When I set up my Time Capsule, I got my Macbook Pro, my PS3 and my iPhone connected in about 15 minutes flat. But I have now been trying to get my wife's Sony Vaio laptop (about one year old) connected for about 3 hours. It can see the network no problem, it connects, but it only ever connects locally and will not let the Windows machine connect to the internet. When I select which network to join, it correctly identifies my network with the correct name, but once it is connected it only sees an "unidentified network".
I have looked through the forums and made sure that the NETbios is started and the security encryption matches.
If I go to the "Summery" page in my Airport Utility on my Macbook, it can see the Windows laptop.
The more I try the more I want to throw the windows machine out of the window and get my wife a mac, but she informs me that she is 28 and she is a PC! Therefore, I need to fix this...............please help.

From the Vaio's Windows Desktop, start a Command Window session. (ref: Start > Start Search > enter cmd, and then, press Enter). At the command prompt, type-in ipconfig /all, and then, press Enter.
You may have several network components listed. For example, entries for both the Ethernet and Wireless connections. We want to concentrate on the wireless adapter settings.
Note the values of the following:
o IPv4 Address - This should be an IP address in the same range as that being provided to the other network clients. By default, the AirPort uses the 10.0.1.n range ... so an address like 10.0.1.10 would be appropriate.
o DHCP Enabled - This should be "Yes."
o Default Gateway - This should be the IP address of the LAN-side of your AirPort. By default, it would be 10.0.1.1.
o DHCP Server - This should be the same as the Default Gateway value.
o DNS Servers - These should be your ISP's DNS servers IP addresses.
Again, compare these values with the other computers that are successfully access the Internet. Except for the IPv4 value, all others should be the same.

EA3500 Phones can connect to wireless router, but cannot transfer data

Ok, Since Cisco is completely helpless on helping me (this is why we are switching from Cisco stuff to other brands like Aruba at my work) I was thinking you guys would help me. I got hanged up twice on this problem. TWICE.
So, my phone and my friends phones can connect to the wifi but I cannot receive nor send data from it. The phones work completely fine elsewhere. Here is the kicker, my computer works completely OK on the router and my phone used to work for 3-4 hours before this issue started going again. Now it is constantly. I restarted the modem, default reset it and still nothing. I get an IP address too and it stays connected. Any help. Cisco thinks its the phone, but its multiple phones that are having the problem and my phone and other works completely fine at other places.

The quickest way to get your phones working is to configure them staticly. More than likely........either your modem, your firewall, your router, or your ISP is blocking the proxy. Try using Google Public DNS. 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 Disable any proxy blocking features of your modem or firewall.
Sometimes simply changing the DNS on your router to Google Public DNS might fix the problem.

Can connect to wireless network but not to internet

Ok, so I bought a new AEBS and have finally managed to get it set up with my cable modem, and with security on so that the light is green, and not amber... the only problem now is that although I can connect to the wireless network that i have created using the base station, I cannot connect to the internet through it using my MacBook.
I don't have problem connecting my iMac to the net wirelessly using the base unit so am confused.
Anyone got any ideas?

Can connect to base station but cannot browse the internet

Hi,
I have got a MacBook 2GHz Intel Core Duo with Leopard installed (10.5). I have had trouble free wireless internet access for the last 12 months using a Belkin ADSL Router.
Just today I have lost access to the internet completely for both wireless and ethernet.
When I look at the Network dialog for either Airport or Ethernet it says that it is connected and it has got an IP address assigned by the router within the range I would expect. When I use the diagnostic utility it says that everything is fine.
I can browse to the admin pages of the router no problem.
I have reset the router numerous times and also tried the reset of the Mac where you take the battery out and hold the power button down for 5 seconds.
Nothing has worked.
I have got a PC connected to the same router and it is connecting to the internet fine.
Any ideas??

Jon,
Some other thoughts occurred to me...
When did this start? What change, if any occurred just prior to the onset of symptoms?
Have you recently upgraded to Leopard? Did it work after that?
Have you tried connecting to the internet on another wireless network like an internet cafe or a friend's house?
Does your PC, which works, rely on proxy settings to browse through?
Lastly, you asked if your ISP could have caused this. Normally, I would say no because you are connecting to your ISP through a single point and IP address, that of your router. While many ISPs have always wanted to bill their users by the number of computers that are using their services, this has been difficult to do because of the prevalence of IP address sharing granted by the routers that are so common in our homes. It may be possible that your ISP has found a way around this but I remain skeptical.

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.

TS3972 My Apple TV connects to the wifi but not to the internet.

My Apple TV connects to the wifi but not to the internet. Currently using a D-Link Router and Shaw Cable in BC Canada.
Apple says "Connections through proxy servers are not supported". Would that be Shaw? How can I update the ATV
software without connecting to a TV and the internet? Can I connect it to my MacBook Pro? ATV worked very well in Arizona
using CenturyLink as an ISP provider and their modem/router. ATV software is 5.0.

What happens when you try to connect? I would contact your ISP

iPhoto pulls off new videos from my iPhone 5 just fine. Does iPhoto automatically come up when you connect your iPhone? If it does, you should see your iPhone under "Devices" in iPhoto and then can select the videos to transfer (select, then Import Selected), though that should happen automatically.

Good day to you and thanks for this prompt response. Are you referring to a music app on an iphone? I have problems with an ipod.
Hope I'm not showing off my ignorance here.

Can connect to wireless network but no internet?

Ok, I'm sure this is answered somewhere, but I'm tired.
At this point I'm not even sure if it can be done. But... I tried to connect to my mother's wireless internet using my Airport Extreme. I connected to the wireless but was unable to access the internet, or email. I tried manually setting the IP address, DHCP, router, DNS etc. But to no avail. It kept saying "Airport is connected to wireless ..., but it has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the internet". I got it to accept the new IP address and finally it said " Airport is connected to wireless..., and is connected to the internet" but I still could not get on. It does say on her computer that it is protected by a key. But I used her password to get on and it recognized it? But her password was not the key.
I thought that I could connect to any wireless network with the password?
Can this even be done?
Thanks
A

Duane,
Thanks for the response. I did not see anything about MAC filtering enabled. It did say encryption was enabled. All I foud was the IP address, router, DNS etc. It is a WEP password and it did accept the password to log on to the network. It's Time Warner and she has a PC. I tried everything, set up new location. I'm going to try to log on to my friends wireless network and see if I can do so there. If my memory serves me right, the last time I tried to log on to a wireless network it didn't work either. Also my mother does not know much about it, someone set it up for her and she is one to not understand these "new fangled things". So...

Can connect to wireless anywhere but home... ??

I'm running a MacBook with OS 10.4.11 (I know... I need to upgrade). My home ISP is Verizon FIOS, and I'm working from the wireless modem/router they provided.
My Dell PC connects to the wireless network without issue.
Both mine and my wife's iPhones (3GS) connect to the wireless network without issue.
The Macbook "looks" like it is connected (the AirPort icon shows full bars and there is a check next to my network name), but launching Safari or Firefox gets me nothing but a "Fail to open page" error. The detail of the error says "you may not be connected to the internet".
If I go to System Preferences > Network > AirPort, the Network Status shows a yellow dot and reads, "AirPort is connected to the network ABC123. AirPort has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the internet."
With the AirPort settings, I see my network name, and WEP password listed is correct.
Within TCP/IP, it is set to 'Using DHCP'. Meaning the IP Address is being assigned by the system, not the "self-assigned" IP the network status mentioned.
If I take the MacBook to Starbucks, a neighbors house, or any wifi hotspot, it connects without a problem, the Network Status shows a green dot, and I can get on the internet with either Safari or Firefox.
What I've done so far...
Cleared cache in Safari
Reset Safari
Removed my network from the Preferred Network list
Reset the network password
Renewed the DHCP Lease
Deleted the network configuration from the Keychain
Deleted and added the AirPort (it auto-creates when you delete it)
It seems obvious something with my home wireless network is "locked", but I don't know where. Any suggestions or ideas on how I can get my home wireless "unlocked" are greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
DamonIRB

Correct. I tried the 192.168.2.1 you listed but it said that isn't a valid address for the computer. Took me a minute, but I figured it out...

Did you also put those DNS numbers in for Airport?
Yes. What I added is below:

No. I get a different error message - 'Safari was unable to find this address. Check the address to confirm it is correct'

Is your Router at home setup to only allow certain Hardware MAC addresses?
I have no idea. How would I know/check that? The router was provided by my ISP, so I don't have much documentation on it. And yes, I've talked to them. They told me that if any device will pick up the wifi it obviously isn't their issue.
BDAqua wrote:
Is the SSID, (name of your Router), a generic one, like a duplicate could exist close by?
The SSID is the same as my network name (assigned by the ISP). I'm in an apartment complex and see a ton of networks in the AirPort list, but no duplication.
I took the MacBook to the local Apple store to have someone at the Genius Bar take a look. As expected, it connected to their wifi and I was able to browse just fine. When I talked to a Tech, their recommendation was to upgrade the OS. Really?? I was rather disappointed that they didn't have a better answer than that.
