Cannot get online with d-LINK wireless router

I am using a PB G4 with an Airport card firmware 9.52. All software is up-to-date. (OS 10.4.6)
The airport works fine in other locations -- seeing many signals and getting onto internet.
But at home it is not working. My roommate has an iBOOK and it works fine on our home network. He sees and gets signal and connects to internet. He also SEES many of our neighbors signals.
My laptop doesn't see OUR signal -- nor does it see any of the other signals.
If I connect directly with ethernet cable, I am online. But not with airport.
We have cable with a dLINK 2.4 GHZ (DI-614+) wireless Broadband router.
I've checked airport card connections. This completely boggles me because I can connect in other venues AND because my roommate and his friends can connect with different MACS in our house.
Thanks for any suggestions.

I am not an expert, but I downloaded the Net Magic softwaret that was on the dlink installation disk and it really helped. It's shareware with a 30 day free trial but once it sets up your system with the wizard you don't have to keep it. You might try googling it if it didn't come with your modem.

  • Cannot get online with netbook

    We upgraded to Infinity but now I cannot get online on my netbook. The icon and wireless connection panel indicate I am connected by when I launch my browser (IE) it says unable to display webpage. My husband managed to get online by using Openzone but this is not very satisfactory when we are paying for Infinity. Our OS is Windows XP.

    Hi Jady and welcome
    It's good you've got on line with Openzone, I presume from your own signal... checks that wireless connectivity is working between your Netbook and HH3.
    If you go to your HH3 you can pull out a useful plastic card/tab which has your wireless code on it.
    Then with your Netbook click on your wireless icon... probably bottom right and click on your wireless name.
    This should say something like connect, enter in the wireless key exactly as shown on your tab/hub settings card.
    And it should connect.
    I removed the BT Help Desk software off my XP PC as it caused connection problems... kept saying connection failure did I want it fixed... say yes and click on the picture of the HH I was using then it went and connected.
    I didn't have this problem on any of my other machines so as this XP PC was the only one with the BT software I removed it as it is uneccessary and the problem never re-occured.
    A useful wireless scanner that's free http://www.metageek.net/products/inssider/ will show your home signals and 
    can help identify a clear or least used channel you can moved your HH3 from it's Automatic setting to this least congested channel.
    Video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pf2kZCfYTxI It's the older version 1 but similar. You get a list of your signal and all your neighbours along with a time graph showing their signal strengths... the lower the number the stronger the signal is.
    Mine is around 40 to 50,  a picture in my post HERE showing my signal is the strongest and my neigbours which is on a nearby channel is weaker.... If it was the same signal strength I would move my HH3 wireless setting off the Automatic setting and set it to a clearer channel. 
    Let us know how you get on... I'm using a Win 7 laptop but have the PC running win XP upstairs and could go thru the exact log in process if you still have probs.

  • Have 3g reception but cannot get online with new 4s.

    I just got a new 4s and whilst using it this weekend in Cork city centre with full 3g coverage shown I couldn't get online. Resetting it worked briefly but then stopped and wifi is working fine.  Any ideas? Thanks. Oliver

    Hi Minnamumu:
    In the Airport Admin Utility, configure the airport with the following:
    Airport Tab: Wireless Mode: Create a Wireless Network (Home Router)
    Internet Tab: Connect using: ethernet
    Network Tab: Make sure the Distribute IP addresses is NOT checked.
    Have a go at that, if that get's you up and running, then I would suggest going back under the airport tab and turning on some form of wireless security. (I recommend WPA2)
    Let us know if that helps you out and get's you online!

  • Cannot get online with safari etc

    Just back into school this morning and went on to the wireless network in school. I got all my emails and went to see if I could surf the net.....but although I got all my emails I could not go online with Safari or anything else. I could use the FTP to view my school info for updating the webpages. I do not think that any thing happened in school over the break. I used my laptop on line at home but only dialup( no broadband in my area). I did however go into an internet cafe in town to download some big photos my daughter sent me. To do this I connected the laptop to a cable and it worked fine. Any help would be great. Thanks
    Dave

    Strange. Do you have the chance to use an other notebook and try this one to log in with your username/password for the school's WLAN ? If you can get hands on an other student's notebook, ensure that it is not mistakenly their account being left active.
    In this way, we would be able to determine whether or not your school account is okay. Then we can focus to the PB - but confessed I would need myself to get a closer look at this, since I don't remember of a way just disabling the web access via WLAN and allow it by LAN (you stated previously that a LAN connection works).
    In the meantime, here are some ideas:
    You may check your Internet connection settings: In the menu line, click to the wave symbol (signal strength) of your AirPort and from the menu select "Open 'internet connection'" or open it from the Finder (it should be at your "Applications" folder).
    Ensure that your wireless connection at AirPort is set correctly (your school's network name should be selected). For testing purposes, you may remove all entries from the "Modem" connection settings.
    You could also check your Internet connection with the "network service app" (applications folder / utility folder) to ensure that anything is set up correctly. Maybe you have the chance to walk through the settings with the network admin of your school's WLAN near you.
    Sorry, it is just guessing. By the way, since I use the German version of Mac OS X, the programs and settings mentioned above may be named differently.

  • Getting online with a Belkin wifi router

    Have a Macbook pro - just bought a Belkin N wireless router. Worked ok on open security, but as soon as I put security on it (naturally) asks for the key. I have this (WEP, 128bit hex), put it in when I try to connect via airport, and then the connection times out every time. Tried calling belkin who said put a $ sign in front of the string, but makes no difference. Have several windows PCs (sorry!) in the house which all work perfectly.
    Any ideas please?

    Cheers.
    The setup is through a browser - you basically navigate to 192.168.0.1 which brings up the router's set up screens - and there's an option to run a set up wizard that does it all automatically.
    Anyway, he rang last night to say he tried again, and the set up wizard told him there was already a working internet connection - so it appears to be working at last.
    No idea what he was doing wrong before tho'.

  • Since installing version 4, I cannot get online with Firefox. No website works. Have reloaded twice. What to do?

    Firefox show problem loading page, no matter what I try. Had no problems before installing version 4. Have reloaded twice to no avail. What to do?

    If you see the message in here: www.google.com/firefox
    '''you are updated''' see your user agent :
    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; rv:9.0.1) Gecko/20100101 '''Firefox/9.0.1'''
    all you have to do is to '''set another page as the home page''', as '''cor-el '''said with very detailed explanation in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/905310 here]
    '''copied from cor-el reply''':
    "That text about not running the latest Firefox version is hardcoded on the www.google.com/firefox site that previous Firefox used as the home page and Google doesn't seem to maintain that page anymore. Current Firefox versions no longer use that Google site as the home page, but use the build-in about:home page as the home page. So Google assumes that you use an older Firefox version if you still visit that site and warns you about that and suggests to update. You can use another page as the home page like about:home or www.google.com or www.google.com/ig (iGoogle)."

  • Airport Express & D-LINK wireless router--can I extend?

    I have Rogers cable internet modem in my office. My D-LINK wireless router is attached to the modem. I was informed by the salesperson at Apple that I can extend the range of my wireless network even though I have a D-LINK router in the office and Airport Express in the living room.
    Can't find any info on the boards. D-LINK can't help, and neither can Apple.
    I figured out how to get the Airport Express to play iTunes, but I cannot get it to connect to the internet (talk to my D-LINK), thus not allowing me to extend the range.
    Does anyone know how to configure this set up so that I can extend the range of my wireless network?
    Buying another Airport Express or an Apple Base Station is the easy option--just seeing if there's a work around so I don't have to drop another $200 CAD.
    Cheers.

    Hi Joe,
    You got the short answer from
    b Henry B,
    which will save you lots of aggravation.
    But if you're as curious, as I was, here's some more info I came across. I thought naively that a simple wireless 'repeater' would be straightforward and would work across different vendors of wireless basestations.
    Maybe it would? But the Airport Express implements something called a
    b Wireless Distribution System
    b (WDS),
    which sounds to me more complicated than just a simple wireless repeater. Maybe it has something to do with also honouring the encryption in the wireless signal to be repeated, err extended? Apparently WDS implementations are not standardized and currently
    b rarely
    work across different brands of wireless basestations.
    Although apparently several folks have been successful extending the range of
    b linksys
    brand wireless basestations using an Airport Express,
    b IF
    they first update (swap out?) the linksys firmware with another (open source) version. Whew!
    Anyhooow, for your situation, a brute-force option might be to replace the Ethernet cord between the Rogers cable modem and the D-LINK with a longer cable, so you can move the D-LINK closer to Living Room. (Or possibly get a longer CATV cable and move both the cable modem and D-LINK). You could even try increasing the range of the PowerBook with one of those Quickertek antennas.
    But I expect it would be
    b cheaper and easier,
    if it came to that, to just replace the D-LINK with a 2nd Airport Express, which would then inter-work with the Airport Express in the Living room, using
    b WDS.
    best of luck,
    ...ben

  • I cannot get online-does not accept password-any help??

    I cannot get online. Network status lights are all red. Even if I connect with an Ethernet cord. When I enter a password, it does not accept it. A new window opens and asks for the password.

    So how are you connected to the internet? Have you repowered your modem? have you repowered your router? if it does accept your password then the password you entered is incorrect.

    Go to the Preferences
    Set it to Off.
    Also make sure your router has the Time and Date/Time Zone set as this upsets Face Time which in turn upsets IChat

  • Airport Express with Belkin N1 Wireless Router

    I saw Airport Express and am very interested to buy this. However, before I proceed to buy, it would want to see if it can work with my Belkin N1 Wireless Router and how.
    Preferred setup is
    DSL Modem <-> Airport Express <-> Belkin N1 Wireless <-> Laptop
    Can anyone advise
    1. Can Airport work with Belkin N1 Wireless Router?
    2. How do i setup the above configuration?
    If this can work, I'm going to get one immediately!! =D

    Welcome to the discussions, Richard!
    Preferred setup is
    DSL Modem <-> Airport Express <-> Belkin N1 Wireless <-> Laptop
    The <-> is normally a display for an ethernet connection. The AirPort Express only has one ethernet port, and it will be used to connect to the DSL modem in your example.
    So, it would not be possible to connect the Belkin device the AirPort Express using <-> ethernet.
