  • The Apple time capsule provides disc memory, a wifi network, and router functions. It would normally be connected to the internet via cable modem.  If I wanted to use a wireless cellular connection to the internet, how would I do that?

    The wireless cellular device would need to have an Ethernet port, to provide an Ethernet signal to the Time Capsule's WAN port.

  • I receive a not connected to the internet message several times daily on my iMac connected via airport to a time capsule which accesses the internet via cable modem.. When I input my password to enter network preferences, the connection re-establishes.

    I receive a "not connected to the internet message" several times daily on my iMac connected via airport to a time capsule which accesses the internet via a cable modem. Software/firmware is up to date on the iMac (OSX 10.6.8)  and Tme Capsule(7.5.2). Browser is Safari 5.1.
    When I input my password at the prompt to enter network preferences, all the lights go green (ie... ethernet, ISP etc.) and the connection re-establishes immediately and states "the connection appears to be working normally".
    It more of a nuisance than anything and seems to have started ocurring over the past couple of months. I also have a windows XP box also connected to the same cable modem that I never have internet connectivity issues with. I've verified all the physical aspects of the connections and can't see any evidence of any actual drops in the modem logs. I suspect it is just an intermittent communication loss between the Imac and the Time Capsule, but I am not very familiar with Mac equipment yet.
    Just wondering if anyone has experienced a similar problem and what you did (if anything) to resolve it?
    Thanks.

    The AirPort Express will connect to your existing wireless network if the network is using WPA2 Personal or WPA/WPA2 Personal wireless security settings.
    So, it can join the network as a client and then provide an Ethernet signal to your Time Capsule.
    Be sure to configure the Time Capsule to operate in Bridge Mode so that it will be operating on the same network.

  • My airport network will not connect to to the internet via my modem. My host computer is a hp running windows xp. I have had great connection for 3 years. Then suddenly can not connect. Please can you assist

    My airport will not connect to the internet via my modem. Worked for 3 years. Suddenly stopped. Main host computer is hp running windows xp.
    When trying to connect windows states connection was cancelled. I have had hp checked by compputer repair and still have same problem?

    The router is much, much newer than the computer, perhaps some characteristic of the WiFi network as it's currently setup is preventing the computer from connecting.
    Try to go back to the basics: set your WiFi network to "b" mode only (i.e., turn off "g") and termporarily remove the password from it. See if the computer will at least establish a connection at that point. Then start turning on one thing at a time ("g" mode, then security, etc).
    Not sure what format your WEP key is, but if it's not 10 characters (the minimum for the standard, which constitutes a 64-bit key), you can try making it that long. If it's 13 or 26 characters, it might be a higher encryption than the computer can support.
    If all else fails, you could try looking on ebay/craigslist for a copy of Tiger to install on the iMac, which would have software support for more WiFi encryption schemes. Also, it would provide software support for USB WiFi adapters that would also be able to connect to more modern networks.

  • Airport Express not connecting to the internet via cable modem

    Hi. I need help. I just bought an airport express to get wireless internet and airtunes. I connected everything and ran the airport utility. Everything is good, so it says. I can play music through my stereo using airtunes, but when I try to get on the internet I get nothing. My macbook recognizes the network, but I can't load any pages. I've tried unhooking the ethernet from the express and unplugging the power from my modem, then plugging my modem back after about 30 seconds, then reconnecting the ethernet to the airport after another 30 seconds but still, nothing.
    Does anyone know what I'm doing incorrectly? When I connect my macbook directly to the modem via ethernet I'm on the internet just fine. Thanks!!!!

    Do you have the Express setup to distribute IP addresses?
    If you do, you might turn it off in the Airport Utility.
    Also check you IP address on your MacBook.
    Make sure it is not self-assigned or something different than what your provider (cable modem) usually assigns you...

  • Cannot connect Wii to the Internet - Error message...

    Hi.
    I cannot get the family Wii to connect to the internet.  Instruction for doing so were followed correctly.  An error message - error 51330 comes up on the screen.   Advice on how to resolve this problem would be much appreciated.  All other wireless enabled devices are connecting okay. 
    Thanks - Guard

    Hi try this it may help
    Usually the error code means that:
    A: You chose the wrong Wi-Fi security (i.e. your Wi-Fi security is WPA but you chose WEP)
    B: You entered the wrong password
    C: Your Wii's MAC address is not allowed (If your Wi-Fi network uses MAC adresses to let certain PCs use the network)
    D: Your wireless router brodcasts a "channel" your Wii isn't compatible with
    E: Your wireless router isn't broadcasting in b/g mode.

  • I cannot connect ATV to the internet. My wifi is picked up and has 4 bars. What should I do?, I cannot connect ATV to the internet. My wifi is picked up and has 4 bars. What should I do?

    I am trying to setup the ATV. My wifi has been picked up and I have a good signal but it won't connect to the internet. The restarted ATV several times and rebooted the modem too. Getting to the end of my rope here!

    Signal test on the device isn't necessarily accurate. To get a proper report of the network go to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC). Try Ethernet to rule out wifi issues. Male sure router is up to date

  • I cannot connect Firefox to the Internet. I keep getting an error message reading:" profile unavailable or inaccessible.

    I've downloaded a new version of Firefox and it has not responded at all. I keep getting a profile inaccessible or unavailable message. I've gone to Mozilla support to apply their fix to this specified problem, but have not had any positive results.
    I think the new version may be incompatible with my computer. I have a Windows Vista system and my IE browser works fine. Can you help??

    Hi!
    It sounds like you're having trouble with Firefox for Desktop. I'd recommend contacting the Firefox for Desktop support forum here: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/new/desktop https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/new/desktop]; they'll be more knowledgeable and better able to answer your questions than the volunteers here at the Firefox OS forum.
    I hope that helps you!

  • Cannot connect to the Internet via PPPoE in Windows manually?

    In Lion there is a little triangle after the Wi-Fi name (SSID) that can connect and disconnect the Internet via PPPoE. But how to do the same thing in Windows? Is it possible?
    And there is also a bug in Mac OS --- if you choose to show the connected time, it will freeze later and the little triangle for connecting is also disappeared! So you have to refresh it to recall that little triangle again.

    I have the exact same problem and my home network have a max capacity of 250 devices, which Im not any way near off.
    I have one pc connected via ethernet, so I always have an option of connecting if WIFI fails.
    I have one iMAC connecyed via WIFI
    I have one Apple notebook conenected via WIFI
    I have one Nintendo Wii connected via WIFI
    And, I have one Apple TV which will not connect while other devices are connected. If I disconnect the notebook and iMAC the Apple TV works fine.

  • Macbook Pro suddenly will not connect to the internet via ethernet cable.

    I know this is a long shot... but I figured I would give it a try.
    My macbook pro suddenly does not connect to the internet via ethernet cable. Please bear with me, as I am not very tech-savvy - I will try my best to describe the symptoms!
    I connect to the internet via ethernet (we don't have wifi). It was working before I went to work, and when I came home I suddenly couldn't get anything to work (I know everyone says this, but I truly didn't mess with anything). Internet browsers just think for awhile and then turn up the 'You are not connected to the internet' error.
    I went into my network preferences and curiously, the 'Ethernet' shows a green dot and says 'connected'. However it says 'Authentication server is not responding' underneath the last part that says '802.1X: WPA: eduroam' (I think that is my user profile).
    When I go into my 'security' settings I can see that my firewall is off, so that shouldn't be causing any problems.
    I've tried restarting the router and computer itself many times. Diagnostics just gets to a certain point and reports back 'Network Diagnostics cannot fix the current networking problems.' I've also tried switching to a different ethernet cable, and I tried both cables out on a PC laptop and it connected without issue.  Additionally, I brought my macbook along to a friend's house and it connected to his wifi just fine, so the problem appears to just be with ethernet connections.
    I know it's hard to troubleshoot this kind of thing without being there and having a look at the computer yourself, but any tips wouild be greatly appreciated.

    As I mentioned above, I am not very tech savvy so I have no idea why a wireless protocol would be showing up there, I'm just listing everything I see in hopes that someone might know something I can try. This is why I am asking for help here - I'm not sure what has happened that has made me unable to connect, especially since it seemingly occured while nobody was using the computer.
    I guess I should clarify that I'm not a total hillbilly- normally my firewall is set to 'on', but I set it to 'off' to try and troubleshoot the issues here as I was told that sometimes it can interfere with the computer's ability to connect to the internet. If this is not the case and firewall does not affect anything, I will turn it back on while I try to fix this.
    I have tried the method you mentioned above a few times - I actually contacted my ISP earlier this week and they recommended resetting the router like that. They didn't mention any known network issues.

  • Help, I cannot connect to the internet via airport with either my Imac or I-Pad.  Connecting via ethernet works okay for Imac.  I can connect wirelesssly with my windows laptop.  I have reset my router, created a new network. It was all okay on Monday

    Normally I have my IMac, I-Pad and Windows Laptop all working on my home network via wi-fi. This week I find that I cannot access the inetrnet on my IMac or I-pad via wi-fi but I can connect to the internet via wi-fi with my windows based laptop.
    The airport diagnostics (reds/yellows) indcate that I am connected
    I can access the internet if I plug my IMac into the router via an ethernet cable
    I have restarted the IMac and the I-Pad, rebooted the router and created a new network.  None of these changes has made a difference.  Does anyone have any ideas please?

  • I don't have a DSL or cable modem to access the Internet ... just a mobile WiFi (there is no cable available at our house). How do I connect my Time Capsule to the Internet via the mobile WiFi?

    I don't have a DSL or cable modem to access the Internet ... just a mobile WiFi (there is no cable available at our house and the mobile WiFi is our only option). How do I connect my Time Capsule to the Internet via the mobile WiFi?

    LOL!!
    I am in Australia and the ISP... I think both the main ones would fit your description to a T.. big T in particular.
    Your router is really unsuitable.. if it is only wireless and no ethernet.. just buy an ethernet one.
    Do a search on ebay.. 3g router.
    But you can get the TC to join a wireless network.
    It is a non-standard setup that Apple will not support.. the option is hidden.
    If you are on Lion download the 5.6 utility. Go to the wireless set up page and hold down the option key whilst selecting wireless mode.. a new option, join will appear. You can then put in the ssid and passkey of the 3g router.
    But please note the end result of this setup..
    very slow speed. The TC is now a second wireless hop from your clients.. this will halve the speed.
    In this mode the ethernet are deactived.. for reasons only Apple know, they decided you should not use ethernet when doing this.

  • On my MacBook Pro when I am connected to the internet via an Ethernet cable, Facebook pictures do not load. They show up as white boxes with blue question marks.

    On my new MacBook Pro when I am connected to the internet via an Ethernet cable, Facebook pictures do not load. They show up as white boxes with blue question marks.

    I mostly use Safari. But I also tried it on Firefox, Mozilla, and Camino. Mac OS X. It's my work computer, so I've only tried it at the office. I have to be connected through the Ethernet cable to access my files and email on the server.
