Can't access some websites using time capsule

Everything has been working just fine with my time capsule and my imac and just today I couldn't access some websites for some reason. I tried many other sites including this one and can get to them no problem. I have been through all of the airport settings and trouble shooting and can't find any problems, also the other 2 computers and my blackberry can't access some of the same sites either, I am stumped. Does anyone out there have any idea whats going on? Thanks for your help!

Welcome to the discussions!
Suggest that you contact your ISP. It sounds like their DNS server is overloaded at the moment, but also unlikely that they will ever admit it.
It wouldn't hurt to power cycle your complete network as well. Just power everything down, order is not important.
Start the modem first and let it run a few minutes by itself.
Then start the next device connected to the modem, probably your Time Capsule, and let it run a few minutes.
Then start your computers and devices one by one the same way.

  • Can i access my data on time capsule from some other network

    can i access my data on time capsule from some other network that is my data at home from office over internet

    There is plenty of info out there if you google..
    Here is a summary I just put into another thread.
    Remote access has been added back into iCloud that was in MobileMe..
    Read the info on setting it up from cloud service.. BTMM.
    http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/back-to-my-mac/
    If you want to do it without the cloud service, you have one major issue.. the public IP for WAN..
    The internal IP of the TC.. which will default to 10.0.1.1 btw.. is irrelevant. It is the IP of the WAN which you use to access the TC over the internet. And here you have a problem.. the TC does not include dyndns service. So unless you have a static IP address from your ISP, this will cause you grief.
    (If it is offered by your ISP.. get a static IP.. that eliminates all the issues.. and is far superior. Even dyndns service has issues if your public IP rotates too often. It is generally an extra cost item and requires a business account but some ISP offer it cheap or even free.. I joined an ISP that offered static ip for free because it gives me the ability to remote access my network without all the hassles you will see below.)
    There are ways around it.. setting up your own domain for instance.
    http://dyn.com/support/airport-time-capsule-with-dynamic-dns/
    But it is easier to simply use a different router.. almost all of them have dyndns service available.. place the TC behind the router in bridge and forward port 548 TCP to it.
    This is a bit old but still relevant.
    http://gigaom.com/apple/access-your-time-capsule-over-the-internet/
    Note .. there is no ftp, http, ssh (there is actually but it isn't accessible), or any other service to allow connection other than AFP.. so you must use a Mac in remote location to access the TC.
    The setup for the two methods is slightly different in the TC.. in the first instance, you need to turn on WAN access via disk sharing page in the manual setup.
    In the second case you do not need this.
    Remember security and put strong passwords on the disk. There are still security questions about this.
    If security is important.. there is a third and better (IMO) method and that is vpn.. you will need to buy a vpn router as TC also missed out on that.. establish a vpn with the main router and that will allow you access to your network.. you will also then be able to use SMB remotely not just AFP.
    Also if this office is a large company they should be running a firewall, which would block your access to home. You should check your IT admin people for what is allowed.. generally the only acceptable method is vpn otherwise you can drag viruses and trojans right into the network without the firewall catching them.

  • Can't access some websites. Possibly DNS problem.

    This problem only started to occur a couple of days ago. I found that I can't access certain websites,but all the other computers in exactly the same network environment have no problem accessing them. I tried changing my DNS server settings from the servers my ISP provided to the Google DNSs, 8.8.8.8 and 4.4.4.4, and those websites I couldn't access before became accessible immediately, but some other websites, which I was able to access with the DNS provided by my ISP before, became inaccessible again. I tried using another set of DNS addresses, the same thing happened: some websites that I couldn't access before became accessible, but some others become inaccessible again. All these DNS servers that I used work perfectly on other computers in my network, so it has to be the problem of my computer. This has nothing to do with the browser, as all of the browers in my system have the same problem, even including the Internet Explorer in my VMware Windows virtual machine. I tried flushing the DNS cache with dscacheutil -flushcache, and it didn't work.
    I'm using Lion 10.7.3 on MacBook Pro MC371. Please help!

    Please give an example of a site you can't access now.

  • Can't access some websites and speed problem

    Hi guys,
    I hope to find some help here please as I am desperate! 
    It has been a week now that I am having problems with my broadband, suddenly I can't access some italian's websites (which I was able to access before). The browser tries to load up the page but nothing happens (it doesn't even give me an error). I tried those website on both my laptops (one windows and one mac) and on 3 different browsers but I have the same problem. 
    I even tried to use Google DNS on my mac but that didn't solve the problem, I have already tried to reset my BT home hub but again that didn't help.
    Any ideas?
    The other thing is that my broadband speed is really strange, because before it used to be very fast during the day (500-600 kb/s download) and really slow during peak-hours (which I know is normal). But for the past month it has been really slow (70kb/s download) even during the day, it has some brief moments when it's slightly faster but not as fast as before. Any suggestions on what would be the problem or what I can try?
    I will really appreciate your help.
    Thank you all 
    Robbie

  • Can't access some websites - URL is hijacked by "unotelly" - ??

    This has a virus-like feel to it... I can't access certain websites,. When I do, I'm bumped to a site for Untotelly.
    I type: www.bbc.co.uk
    And I go to:  http://quickstart3.unotelly.com/?origin=http://www.bbc.co.uk/
    At the top of that page I'm asked to "please update your IP address"  (among other things) .. which I'm reluctant to do.
    The question is: how do I stop this from happening?

    I'd think that the DNS settings on your computer or router have been changed to unotelly's ones.

  • Can't access adobe website using safari 7

    I can't access adobe.com on my late 2008 MacBook running Mavericks OS X. Every time I try to access the website it says that Safari "can't connect to the server adobe.com"
    I've tried resetting Safari and restarting my computer. I have Adobe Lightroom 3 installed on my computer.
    Any help would be appreciated!

    You, or someone using your computer, may have hacked the system to redirect queries to certain servers. The file modified is /etc/hosts.
    The easiest way to fix the hosts file is to restore it from a backup that predates the modification, or to copy the unmodified file from another Mac. If you can't do that, then do as below.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    open -e /etc/hosts
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting. A TextEdit window should open. At the top of the window, you should see this:
    # Host Database
    # localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
    # when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
    127.0.0.1                              localhost
    255.255.255.255          broadcasthost
    ::1                                        localhost
    fe80::1%lo0                    localhost
    Below that, you may see some other lines. The first 10 lines should be exactly as above, apart from differences in the blank space within lines. Otherwise you can't use this procedure—STOP and ask for guidance.
    If the contents of the TextEdit window are as described, close it, then enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (by copy and paste):
    sudo sed -i~ '11,$d' /etc/hosts
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Confirm. Quit Terminal.
    If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Log in as one and start over.
    That will fix the hosts file. There is now a copy of the old hosts file with the name "hosts~" in the same folder as "hosts". You can delete the copy if you wish. Don't delete the file named "hosts".

  • Can't Access Some Websites

    Hi there!
    I've searched all over the forums and the internet for help on this topic, but none of the solutions I've found prove to be anything more than false hope. 
    I have had this problem for 2 days now and it's driving me nuts! For some reason, I can't access my personal website (http://www.the-visionary.net) or the host (http://www.rigrag.com) but both are up and working. Friends can access it, I can access it at work, but I cannot access it at home. I've tried getting to both websites from multiple computers (a total of 4, plus an iPod Touch) and nothing seems to be able to access them which leads me to believe it's the included FiOS wireless router.
    I've tried using free services such as OpenDNS.com and a few others, both by way of changing the router settings and personal computing settings, though none have been able to fix the situation. i honestly have no clue where to go from here. I've looked over the router settings, restarted, reset - nothing. 
    Does anyone have any idea what I can do to get my website back! 
    Thanks in advance,
    Mitchell

    Both websites you mention run on the same IP address.
    Enter 69.10.57.170 into your browser and see if you see a blue Apache screen. 
    If you do see that page it's likely a DNS issue.
    If you can't get that site to launch then it could be that your IP address is blocked from that site.  You could try reaching the webmasters of those sites and asking them to unblock your IP

  • I have iTunes on an external HD. Can I access it through my Time Capsule via USB connection?

    To save space on my MacBook Pro, I've transferred iTunes to an external HD. Can I plug the external HD into the USB connection on my Time Capsule and thereby access my music, etc?

    Is it possible to connect an external drive to the time capsule that I could use to store and access my primary iTunes files?

  • I can't access some websites, log in on some websites or have some websites remember my username and password.

    Before I asked this question, I went through all the questions and answers and guides that were about problems similar to these but they never worked.
    For some websites, it's as simple as not being able to log in. I will enter my account details but it will take me back to the log in page.
    Some websites say that they can't 'redirect properly'.
    I've looked up the solutions to these problems, but they didn't work. I think I'm experiencing another problem because one of the solutions that I think might work isn't being completed properly. When I try to do the 'use custom settings for history' fix, Firefox never remembers my settings.

  • Can't Access iphoto Library on Time Capsule

    I can’t access one of my iphoto’s library on time capsule. I tried the permission keys- alt+cmd- fix and the Caution warning still pops up. All my libraries are working fine, but this particular one hasn’t allow me to enter the permissions fix window despite is set up as a default library- Your help much appreciate it. Thanks! 

    Have you opened this one over a wireless connection in the past?
    A strong warning: If you're trying to edit the Library (that is, make albums, move photos around, keyword, make books or slideshows etc.) or edit individual photos in it via Wireless be very careful. Dropouts are a common fact of wireless networking, and should one occur while the app is writing to the database then your Library will be damaged. Simply, I would not do this with my Libraries. 

  • Can ipad access the file on time capsule

    Can the files such as movies stored on time capsule be accessed and displayed by ipad

    Of course, you need an app like "FileBrowser" or any other app that does the same.
    Your movies need to have the mp4 format, or any other format the iPad can read.
    wmv, avi, mpg, etc won't be compatible.
    Then you have to know the IP address of the Time Capsule on your network to access it.

  • Can't access some websites from XP machines on the network, but Win7 PC's ok

    Hi,
    We have a SBS installation with both XP and 7 PCs on it. Within the last couple of weeks the XP units have become unable to access certain websites, although others are ok. Windows 7 PC's are fine. Pings to the affected sites are also ok from either XP or
    7. Despite a lot of effort trying to discover the reason we are not any closer to a solution. Could anyone suggest how we might track down the source of the issue ?
    Many thanks

    Hi,
    Please try to reset the IE on the XP client. This issue may be caused by misconfiguration of the Internet Explorer.
    Please check if there is any firewall rule block the TCP port 80 of the specified website.
    To check if the TCP port 80 is open, please use the portqry tool.
    To download the portqry, please click the link below,
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=24009
    If the TCP port 80 is block on the specified website, please check the network settings. Normally, this issue is caused by the misconfiguration of the firewall. Also, incorrectly configured proxy or router will cause this issue too.
    If the TCP port 80 is open, we may need to perform a network capture on the XP client.

  • Accessing files remotely using Time Capsule

    Hi there
    I am thinking of buying a Time Capsule, as I am looking for a way of not only having the wonderful 802.11n and Time Machine all in one box, but also the ability of remoteley accessing a folder to read/write to. Is this possible on the drive which comes with TC?
    Really appreciate anyone's help on this.

    This tutorial should tell you everything you need to know. http://funwithosx.blogspot.com/2009/01/remote-backups-to-network-attached.html
    At the end, the author states that they don't think it will work with a Time Capsule, however I have tried it and it does.
