The ipad connects to the Internet via wifi. That's the way & the only way.
You need to get a wireless router & plug both devices into the router.

Can I connect to the internet with an Ipad in Santo Domingo, DR while I'm on vacation?

Can I connect to the internet with an Ipad in Santo Domingo, DR while I'm on vacation?

Lots of hotels in the DR have WiFi. And there is plenty of cellular coverage in Santo Domingo (and elsewhere).
One thing to be careful of, the WiFi networks are usually not secured and are very vulnerable to people "listening" for passwords and user names, so don't do any financial transactions online and perhaps consider setting up some temporary passwords for the trip and changing them when you get home.

How can I connect to the internet on my ipad without a 3G data plan?

Is there any other way to connect to the internet without a 3G data plan? I have an internet router at home from verizon, can that connect my ipad to the internet or do i still need the 3G data plan? Can u please help me?

The iPad can connect to wireless networks. So if your router is capable of broadcasting its internet connection wirelessly (so that you can access it from say a laptop) then you can go to the settings and choose wifi to connect to the router. If not you can turn on internet sharing on your computer if you have a pc or mac. This will share your connection wirelessly so that you can connect your iPad to the internet.

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 (Auto is best). 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.

Cannot connect to iTunes Store from my iPad mini

I can't connect to iTune store from my iPad mini after upgraded to IOS7.

Thanks this worked for me. Only mine was already set to "From third parties and advertisers". I just switched it to "never". Then I opened itunes and it worked. So I went back and changed it to "From third parties and advertisers" and all is well. iTunes works fine!
I was hesitant to restore to factory settings and install from a back up as other people advised online.

Can't connect on the internet. At a friend's house, but when I type the password in, the "OK" tab is shaded out, and therefore I can't enter the password, which will allow me to connect to friend's server. I have 10.5.8 Leopard installed in my laptop.

I'm visiting a friend, and I can't connect to her internet. My operating system is 10.5.8 Leopard. I have a laptop. When I type in the password, the "OK" tab is shaded out, preventing me from entering the password, and thereby preventing me from getting onto her server. Any suggestions?

Hi is this Wifi/Airport?
If so...
Instead of joining it from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed.

Can't connect to the internet with my wired desktop computer or my wireless laptop!

I'm stumped? Tonight I was surfing the internet when all of a sudden I lost my internet connection from my desktop computer? I tried various solutions to fix this but nothing worked? I'm currently hooked up to a wireless router model WRT160N. Here's the clincher, I unhooked the ethernet cable from the port on the router labeled "internet" and hooked it back into my ethernet port on my desktop computer and persto everything worked fine!! I can't connect to the internet either using my laptop!? I hooked everything back up to my router and tried accessing the internet but nothing worked? When hooked up like this I lose my internet connection on my desktop computer as well??? I'm confused??? What could be causing this??? I've just recently configured my router last Satuday with the help of a Linksys technician?? I bought my router last tuesday!?! Need help here!!!! Both my laptop and desktop computer have Windows Vista Home Premium as OS.

You need to re-configure your router...

Despite troubleshooting, still can't connect to the internet on my Dell Laptop

When trying to connect to the internet, I get the following message: Server not found Firefox can't find the server at www.apple.com.
I cleared recent history, but still can't connect.

Some laptops have a switch somewhere on the machine, usually underneath which you can use to prevent the laptop from connecting to the Internet.
Can you connect with Internet Explorer? If you can, then it may be that your firewall is blocking the connection. See [[Firewalls]]

After update I can't connect to the internet in no way, shape or form

I rarely update because: 1) something always breaks when you update (like now) and 2) I don't like to deal with new crap like GNOME 3. Anyway:
I bought a new router (TL-WR1043N) and configured it with an old Ubuntu because connecting to 192.168.1.1 didn't work on any of my Arch Linux installations. Now... here's where it all starts... I can't use the 'n' wireless on my laptop since I have to install something to use WPA, and to install that I need to update, but I don't want to deal with GNOME 3 and Firefox >3. But I gave up eventually gave up and connected my laptop to the router by Ethernet cable. Setting that up was very easy: 'ifconfig eth0 up; dhcpcd'. Voila! I updated my whole system and restarted. To see how badly I damaged my system I opened Nautilus (I use Openbox with some GNOME programs): shock and dismay, the fonts are visible from the moon. I guess I'll have to quit using GNOME programs completely now but I expected that. I used to use KDE back in the day and when KDE4 came forth from that unholy pit, I immediately abandoned it for GNOME. This time we had more time to prepare, everybody knew what GNOME 3 was going to be. I started using Openbox quite a long time ago.
Anyway: Now to fix my wireless right? WRONG! I can't connect to the internet on cable to get the packages for wireless. I installed Windows 7 64 on the same laptop and it connects to the cable. Ubuntu 9.10 Live also connects, but due to the changes of rc.conf and network stuff I can't connect at all with Arch Linux.
So I decided to abandon it completely and reinstall from scratch. But the Live CD also doesn't work. With all the ways I've tried it all comes down to this:
dhcpcd always times out waiting for a carrier and 'ip addr' shows 'eth0: <NO-CARRIER, ....' if the interface is up. I'm not sure what information I should give you, but I can't paste any here since I can't connect to the damn internet on that laptop.
About the router: the cable is plugged on port 1 and the LED for it flashes if I reboot the computer. In Windows it stops flashing while it connects and flashes again when connected. I removed 'network' from DAEMONS and it flashes till I start it with '/etc/rc.d/network start'. This hangs for a while and returns '[DONE]' even though it doesn't work and the LED never flashes again on the router.
In rc.conf I have exactly what the example says for DHCP. In any case, it doesn't work with the Live CD either.
EDIT 1: From lscpi: painstakingly typed:
06:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection (rev 61)
07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconducctor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 01)
EDIT 2: Just to be clear: I can use the wireless on the laptop on the Live CD, but I want to use the cable because of the greater speed (94Mbit/s on cable 60 something on wireless n, 20 something on g) and because I rarely move the laptop.
EDIT 3: lspci -v shows "Kernel driver in use: r8169 / Kernel modules: r8169", so the driver is loaded.
EDIT 4: So if I boot from the CD. ip addr shows:
eth: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN qlen 1000
link/ether 00:1d:92:...etc... brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
And the LED flashes. When I type: "ifconfig eth0 up" it stops, never to light up again and ip addr shows: "eth: <nO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN qlen 1000

When you're in Arch, use output redirection
lspci >lspci.out
then boot into Ubuntu or something where you can access the files and the BBS, Of course, don't forget to use a new file for each command output.
The new network config in rc.conf is not that complicated (wired anyway; never used wireless). OTOH I've had issues on two machines where I have to restart the network daemon (rc.d restart network) or rerun netcfg (netcfg eth0) after boot to get connectivity. And I still haven't come to grips with the ip command.

Can't connect to the internet

Ok. so i did a search and didn't come across any other problems like the one I'm having.
Let me start off by stating that my laptop is an ibook g4 bought feb, '06 (yes the apple care just ran out).
I'm having a problem connecting to the internet on my ibook, running through a d-link wireless router. I'm using my imac to connect to the internet currently (which works fine by the way). It also is connected through the wireless router.
My ibook has a strange ailment. I open up Safari and all I get is a blank screen, the page is trying to load but the status bar is going no where and does the same in Firefox. So first, I opened Network diagnostics, but the computer freezes and I have to do a hard shutdown. (holding the power button). Next, I tried Disk utility. Verified Permissions, Repaired Permissions, everything is fine. I tried to Verify Disk, and again the computer freezes, will not let me force quit and I am forced to do another hard shutdown. I do the thing where you hold down some key while you're starting up to get into the disk utility so I can repair the disk. This returns clean as well. I downloaded techtool off of my Applecare disk. Did the tests, everything passes. So what's the deal?? I've tried to reset the pram. I even did the Apple Hardware test, everything passed.
I thought it could be my Airport card? It recognizes that there is an internet connection in the top right corner, I even have great signal strength (mostly because I've tried this sitting right next to the router). But still, I can't connect to the internet. Any one have any ideas? I don't know what else to try! Please help!

so i can't believe i didn't try to connect it directly to the router with the ethernet cord. This actually worked. But it still didn't solve my wireless problem. I'm not willing to let my laptop become a desktop. I'm already wired to a plug b/c the battery is slowly dying and has a life of about 5 minutes. I'm not willing to give up my wireless internet too.
I guess now it's got to be the airport card? how do I confirm this? and if it is how much would a new one cost and can I install it myself??

Can't connect imac to internet through Airport Express

Hello
I am trying to connect my new imac (2.4Ghz,OS X 10.5) to the internet through my Airport Express (v6.3) but have encountered some problems.
The set up goes like this:
Cable Internet <wired> TP-LINK Router <wired> AE <wireless> imac
The internet is coming from my landlord on the bottom floor of my apartment so I can't change the router.
The router is assigning a static IP to my AE (192.168.5.101).
I am using WEP 128 bit security.
I have set the AE through Airport Utility to act as a Bridge.
On the imac I set the Network preferences to manually select an IP address (192.168.5.110) which is out of the range of the Router (192.168.5.101-108).
The AE connects and lights up green and the imac recognises the AE but I still cannot access the internet...
I have also tried to wirelessly connect my PC laptop to the AE using other static addresses but I still can't connect to the internet.
Can anyone please help??
Regards
Starwolfgang

Hello Starwolfgang. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
The router is assigning a static IP to my AE (192.168.5.101).
Are you sure that this provided IP address is static? If so, you also need to note the provided DNS server(s) IPs as well.
On the imac I set the Network preferences to manually select an IP address (192.168.5.110) which is out of the range of the Router (192.168.5.101-108).
Since you configured your AX in bridge mode, your computer will be dependent on the NAT (& possibly DHCP) services provided by your apartment's router. Assuming that your landlord doesn't filter out any IP addresses and that the IP address you set is valid, you need to compare your iMac AirPort's DNS server address settings with that provided by your apartment's router to be sure they match.
Finally, assuming that your apartment provides you with an Ethernet jack, if you connect your iMac directly (via Ethernet) can it access the Internet?

Can't connect to the internet in my home yet other devices can. I tried it in other Wifi places and it connects without a problem. My home Wifi is with Att uverse

Can't connect to the internet in my home yet other devices can. I tried it in other wifi places and it connects without a problem. My home wifi is with ATT Uverse. I cheched the IP address on my laptop and its different than on my Ipod although it on the same network.

Move off WEP to WPA or, preferably, to WPA2 (as recommended by Apple). WEP has been deprecated by the WiFi Alliance since 2004 as insecure (it can be cracked in seconds by any hacker).
Note that each device on a network has a unique IP address but if your address starts with 169 then you did not get a valid IP address assigned to you by your router. If restarting the router did not cure the problem then you should check for a firmware update for your router.

Why is my wi-fi signal is going strong, but I can't connect to the internet?

Before I begin, here's my set-up:
My wi-fi signal (on the top right side of my MacBook) is going strong (with all the bars). And a green light is lit up on my Airport Extreme. For some reason, I still can't connect to the internet/use Apple Mail/use iChat. I don't think that there's anything wrong with my MacBook, as my wife isn't able to connect to the internet with her iPad or with her laptop either.
I'm thinking that I have the strong wi-fi signal showing up on my computer because it actually is connecting to the Airport Extreme, yet the airport extreme somehow isn't connected to or isn't able to connect to the router. Would this be correct? Any ideas of how I might fix this? I tried unplugging and replugging everything for a few seconds. However, whenever I use a hardwire ethernet connection to my MacBook, my internet and everything works.
ALSO, of note, I just purchased an Apple Time Capsule. I just realized that it functions as a wi-fi base. Any chance that my computer, my wife's iPad and laptop are just connecting to the Time Capsule instead of the Airport Extreme?
Any answers would be more than appreciated. Thanks!
