Cannot establish wireless connection with Macbook

I bought Belkin ADSL2+ Wireless 802.11g Modem Router recently and have problems connecting via Airport.
However, the signal for the Macbook is strong and generally, I could connect for about 10-15 seconds. Afterwhich, a dialog box that states that there is an error connecting to the wireless network appears and the connection disappears.
It should not be a modem problem as I could connect to the internet via wireless on my PC and can even connect to VPN with the same router.
What could be the likely problem? Please help.
Thanks!

Thanks for reply! I have my network in preffered, and the software/laptop locks on
the network (see it, says it have excellent signal strenght) and gives note
'waiting for keys' (the WPA2 encription key is in the settings - both of router and laptop client - Odyssey).
I've got firmware ver.7 so it is probably the latest.

Cannot establish wireless connection with WRT54G after power-off

My WRT54G (firmware v7.00.0) is connected to cable TV modem and
usually the wireless connection works fine, but after swiching off and later
on the power to WRT54G a laptop cannot establish WiFi connection to internet.
I can see in Odyssey software (for wireless communication) that my laptop
found the right network (SSID) but in status it says 'waiting for keys'.
I use WPA2 (TKIP). The laptop does not connect to internet.
When I connect it by cable (ethernet) the internet works fine, I have noticed
that by accessing the web-page utility of the router and simply clicking
save changes on wireless-settings page (without making any changes in
the settings) my laptop instantly establishes wireles connection and
everything works fine till next power swich-off.

Cannot establish wireless connection with printer

HP Photosmart C4780/Windows 7 64 bit/no error messages
This printer was previously running on this PC via a network router. I replaced the router with a new one and have not been able to reconnect the printer to the new network. The printer works when connected via the USB cable. The blue wireless light is ON on the printer panel.
Following the troubleshooting guidance of HP on line, I disconnected the USB cable and put in the printer install disk, hit launch pad/Configure Network Device which goes to a window "Reconfiguring Network Device". This runs for hours and never gives me the next step (never asks me to connect the USB cable).
I was able to print out a Printer Status Report when the printer was connected via the USB cable.
Thank you
Cobi

You have to run the Wireless setup wizard from your printer to connect it to the network with your new router-
You will have to enter the SSID & WEP/WPA KEY
Although I work for HP, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

Adobeconnect outlook add-ins version 3.5 cannot establish the connection with the server

i am using outlook 2010 and i have installed the outlook add-ins ver3.5 to my laptop. i was trying to login the server through add-ins with my login details. But it popup"cannot establish the connection to server, please check your server address and account", the server i am using is "intercall-apac.adobeconnect.com". Just want to know is there any port should be opened on the firewall?

Try putting https:// in the URL for the server instead of http:// (or check the box for a secure connection)

Office 2013 - Word cannot establish a connection with this document after the system resumed from suspend mode

Hiya!
This issue has been answered numerous times for Office 2010 and Office 2007, but I have yet to any solutions or Hotfixes that work for Office 2013 (x64) on Win7.
How to replicate the issue:
Open a file from a network share.
Edit file.
Leave computer on with file open. Computer goes to sleep or into stand-by mode.
Wait a bit
Wake up computer
CPU opens file in Read-Only mode and gives you the following error "Word cannot establish a network connection with this document after the system resumed from suspend mode. Save the document into a different file to keep any changes."
What I've tried:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2434898 - Office 2007 registry fixes. Does not apply.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2413659 - Office 2010 problem. This exact issue. Says 'No microsoft products that match this hotfix are installed'
Work Around:
I can saving new versions of these files overrides this issue, but this is sometimes not possible for end-users who only have specific access to ONE SPECIFIC FILE in a particular network share.
Please let me know how I can alleviate this issue!
Thanks
-Chris

Hi,
Are those problematic documents created via previous versions of Office?
Please also try to run a repair of your Office 2013 installtion and check if it helps. See:

I cannot establish VPN connection with rv120w to shrew soft client

1. I bought 2 rv120w router and install one direct to WAN and one behind router-hub.
2. one behind router is set DMZ, and each are conneted Site to Site vpn
3. I need to connect each site with my mobile devices(1 notebook, 2 Win8 tablets, 2 android devices )
4. i use wibro mobile router, win8 devices're behind router, and their fort is fowarded(DMZ)
5. I'll take care of Android devices later, here now, my trouble is Win8 devices
6. i installed cisco QuickVPN software. frankly,that software is shit. i don't know why but it even cannot reach router, no log generated on rv120w. and i dont want PPTP connection. sorry for criticism but I'm sure many of QuickVPN users(and people who fail to be a user) agree with me. it's 2014. not 1998.
Cisco should be shamed for that software. it looks like a second grade collage student's 2nd semester project(Many of them're batter nowadays.) and doesn't work.
more amazing fact is that's only software that RV series provides officialy. What the...so in conclusion, Cisco does not provide any IPSec client connection tool at all. does that makes any sense?
7. i tried 10 or more hours to make IPSec client connection with many vpn client soft ware, this is my closest shot.

Hi kastwf001,
My name is Mehdi from Cisco Technical Support, just want to inform you regarding QuickVPN is an light software using IPsec service of windows, so here it depend of windows and firewall ... IPsec setting on windows, encryption ...
anyhow for RV120W it's open for 3rd party software as ShrewVPN , TheGreenBow ... and working as expected since those software are using their ip sec services ..
Please follow configuration steps on RV120W and ShrewVPN (screenshots taken from you post) :

Cannot establish wireless connection

I installed a wireless g router (wrt54g) and it was working fine. Then I had some problems with my pc,,,and had to re-install windows and my linksys software. Now I cannot connect wireless. My router is working fine, but I have to keep the network cable connected between my laptop and port 1 of the router. It still tries to connect to my wireless network that was set up before(ryan). It is stuck on "aquiring network address. I get 0.00.00.0 for my ip addy the wireless network is using. I have tried to "repair" the wireless connection,,,and it freezes up and says it cannot renew my ip addy. I am connected to the internet just fine. I have tried the reset button on the back of my router. What am I not doing right? I cannot delete the wireless network from my windows that I was using before, and start all over which I thought would work. The router and my wireless network are not communicating with each other.
Im using windows xp, with the linksys wireless g 2.4GHz router. I have my cable modem, my laptop and my router. Not trying to add more pc's. Just tryin to turn my laptop back into wireless. Please help.

When you pushed the reset button on your router you set it's configuration back to the factory defaults. Whatever settings you had originally modified on your router when you first set it up have been blown away. Since the router is now running on the original factory settings, you can easily get back into the router and reconfigure it. With your pc hardwired to one of the four ports on the back of the router, fire up your browser and enter 192.168.1.1 as the URL then press ENTER. It will prompt you for a username and password. Leave the username blank, enter the word admin for the password. Change the SSID field to whatever name you want to use for your wireless network. Sounds like you used 'ryan' before. If so, use that. If not, make something up other than 'linksys'. Make sure the SSID Broadcast option is ENABLED. Save the changes, reboot your router. Disconnect the network wire from your pc and reboot the pc. You should now be able to see your network, whatever you named the SSID. You should be able to connect to it. If you get the pc and the router talking wirelessly, you then want to think about going back into the router and setting up wirelss security to keep the rest of the world out. Read the router manual to see what the options are and how to go about doing it.

Extremely Poor Wireless Connection with Macbook 1,1

Hi,
I've been trying to solve internet connection issues for a friends Macbook and I'm getting rather frustrated.
I'm using a White Macbook 1,1 and I've found that the wireless connection on it is extremely temperamental. The connection works perfectly with the cable so it's not my internet connection, and my wireless hub works fine with all other laptops that have connected to it.
So, the issue is the connection is extremely intermittent. It connects to my hub absolutely fine, but when surfing the connection becomes unreliable. Say you wish to go to a website then a quarter of the time it'll connect and download everything fine and quickly, the other 3/4 of the time it'll get stuck somewhere in the process. It normally gets past the DNS fine, and connects to the server and then sits there and waits for a response indefinitely.
I have searched the web and found numerous solutions involving changing wireless channels and modes which I have tried every possible combination of. I have ensured it's not a DNS issue. I tried all combinations of any super-speed mode and extended range features on my router (including everything off of course). I have tried it on other routers and internet connections, and ensured it's using the latest firmware. I have disabled any IPv6 modes on both router and laptop. I have altered positioning of my router to be in better positions/much closer to the laptop, to the extent where there is only a few inches between laptop and hub. None of this has helped.
There has been one tiny glimmer of hope and that was me upgrading the amount of memory in the machine from half a gig to 2 gig and a much larger hard drive and this has helped a little. Now it only fails 75% of the time instead of 99% of the time.
Can anyone help? Is there anyone experiencing the same issues? Is there any updated driver for the AirPort out there that may work better?
Please help, this is driving me up the wall. My router is a WGT624 v3 if that helps although I really don't think that is the issue as it happens with all connections.
Cheers, Dan

I had this same issue with my 1.1 MacBook about a year or so ago. I had AppleCare so it was fixed for free.
Turned out the wireless card was causing problems. Not sure if it was a bad connection or card, but replacing it has fixed the problem.
Good Luck.

Losing wireless connection with MacBook Pro

My wireless connection is interrupted every five to ten minutes and I am not sure why. If I turn off airport and turn it on again it works for a few more minutes, but then goes back out again. I have power cycled the modem and router (Belkin) to no avail. My roommate doesn't have the problem, but he is using a PC, so I am not sure where the problem lies.

id try this, from finder select go>computer>mac hd>library>preferences>take the folder called system configuration and put it on the desktop then restart and try again.
hope that works for you!

Cannot achieve wireless printing with macbook

I can't get my HP DESKJET e-All-in-ONE to print wireless. I've heard it takes a special driver instead of the one on the CD that came with the printer. I use a MACBOOK PRO and AIRPORT EXTREME and osx 10.6.3

10.6.3? You should run Software Update (Apple menu) to get to 10.6.8.
Download and install the latest software for your printer from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page.

Firefox 4.0 cannot establish secure connections with banking sites like bank of america.

After authentication, the connection is reset and the page fails to load. Or, it takes a very long time to establish the session. Earlier versions of ffx didn't have this problem and IE access these site just fine at the same time when ffx fails.

I had the exact problem. It seems when connecting from firefox i was getting directed to onlineeast2 and then the connection would reset. When connecting from IE i was getting directed to onlineeast3 and the connection was fine. So I edited my hosts file to force onlineeast2 to resolve to the ip address of onlineeast3. This is working for me. here is what i put in my hosts file:
171.159.66.159 onlineeast2.bankofamerica.com
171.159.66.159 onlineeast3.bankofamerica.com
The hosts file can be found here:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

Laserjet p1102w does not maintain wireless connection with macbook pro

Above product was set up and working. If it sits idle for awhile it does not print. I have to click on WiFi signal, select hpsetup, then after that is complete reselect my network and then it prints. Printed self test page - device is 'connected'. Running OS 10.7.3

Yes. I had troubles getting it to work originally and I had to talk to someone at HP who helped me with it. We ended up setting it up manually and it worked fine; but if I don't use it for awhile it will not print. Actually that is not entirely true. Once in awhile it will - about 10% - but most of the time it will not unless I do the above.

Establishing a connection with Facebook on my BRAND NEW iMac

I cannot get the Facebook page to open. Safari tells me that it cannot establish a connection with facebook.com! What is up with this. I have a brand new iMac! How do I fix this?

Are "Parental Controls" set to block Facebook?

MacBook Pro "cannot establish secure connection"

MacBook Pro "cannot establish secure connection" can't connect to Internet, tried on two separate networks and via wifi and Ethernet. Any suggestions??
Mac book was connected and working then started giving error message "failed to establish secure connection" now cannot connect to Internet via any network. Either by wifi or Ethernet. However in network settings it says it is connected. iTunes also cannot connect so don't think it is a safari problem. Have also checked networks with other devices and the network itself seems to be working.
Have further problems with syncing phone (doesn't seem to registering removal of music, storage is not freeing up) but I am hoping that solving Internet connection may solve that problem as well
Apologies if i am posting in the wrong place!
Any suggestions greatly appreciated as I am stuck.
