Connect to Airport But NOT the Internet - Please help

My iPod touch has never had any problems till recently with connecting to the Internet.
I does connect to the Airport. But I cannot go to the Internet.
The error message I keep getting is that the server stopped responding, when using Safari.
My computer connects to the Internet no probs.
I done as much checking as I can, what else can I do?
Please help?

I had a similar problem and simply unplugged my cable modem for a few seconds. When it came back up, everything connected fine.

My computer will connect to wifi but not the Internet

My computer will connect to wifi but not the Internet. It's not a problem with my router because I've tried other devices on the same router and they work. I have also tried my computer on other routers and there is still no Internet connection. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Hello Bmowat,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you are able to successfully connect to your Wifi network, but cannot get internet access.
I found this article for you named Wi-Fi: How to troubleshoot Wi-Fi connectivity found here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4628?viewlocale=en_US

I can connect to WiFi but not the internet

I am trying to connect a new IPad 2. I have a Belkin router that is B+G+N. I use WPA2 encryption and MAC filtering. The IPAD's MAC address was entered into the router and when I provide the encryption key as the password I am able to connect to WiFi but not anything Internet related except for email. When I type any URL in Safari it takes me to my router's management page. In fact I can log into my router and manage it from my IPad but I can't connect to anything else. I have 8 other computers/devices that connect to the router fine including two Apple Ipod touch's. This has me baffled.

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. 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.

Connect to smb but not the internet?

Is it possible to enable my wireless card to connect to my NAS and not to the internet?

To get a guest machine onto a network to access file shares but not have internet access you can:
- manually remove the default route on the client,
- configure the DHCP server to give that particular client no "routers" option, or
- put firewall rules on the router to prevent forwarding of traffic from that router.
Manually messing with client routing is annoying and typically needs to be redone every time they connect, so that's probably not useful outside of a one-off. If you just want the client to have no internet access by default (but be able to turn it on easily if they need it), add a custom DHCP config for that MAC. If you want to enforce the lack of internet access, do it through firewall rules.
If I've completely misinterpreted what you're trying to do, please provide more details.

Can connect to airport but not load internet page

I can connect my PS3 and window based laptop to my airport network, as both show successful connection, but I can not load internet page on either the PS3 or the laptop. My airport network is not protected. My airport base station is about 7 years old.

Well the symptoms now point to a number of issues that need to be eliminated and they are you need to check that you are logged onto the ISP. For always ON systems this is usually a function of the Router in which case you need to log onto the Router and check the appropriate settings for this function also release the lease on the IP address and reboot the Router. The other issue is that the Router may not have access to the ISP which may cabling problem [disconnected or accidently damaged cable] within your environment of a service problem within the ISP domain. Check with a neighbour who is subscribed to the same Exchange as you are to see if they have problems otherwise call your Service Provider they may have to perform a reset on their end of your connectivity. Good luck

Macbook will connect to wireless but not the internet

My Macbook will connect to my wireless but will not follow through and connect to the internet.
I have checked the wireless setup with my iPhone and the iPhone has no problems getting on the internet.
I have checked with Network Diagnostics and cannot get green lights on the last 2 issues.
I have checked firewall settings and even reduced the level of firewall, still no joy.
I have checked the hardware with the startup disk, all hardware is OK.
Short of a complete reinstall, what else can I do to get my Macbook back on the internet.

I've got a late spring 2009 macbook, time capsule networked with an airport express extending my network. My Iphone never loses it's connection to the network. My Macbook has been dropping daily from the network. The only solution I found was physically disconnecting the time capsule and modem and restarting. This worked but was getting annoying, so I rang Apple.
They told me to go to system preferences, network, location, edit locations, add a location which comes up untitled, then click on assist and keep pressing continue, select your network and enter password. I was told to monitor the situation, but this solution should help.
Tonight my macbook dropped off the network. I went through the above solution and it reconnected, I didn't have to disconnect any of my devices. It's not ideal, but I reckon apple will release an update soon that fixes this internet drop out, reckon an automator every time internet drops using their solution solves the problem...not that i've made one.

New Ipad Connecting to WiFi but NOT the internet

I have the new iPad (3) and had it set up fine to connect through WiFi. Recently I activated the Verizon LTE account and used it while on a trip. Since then, my iPad will not connect to Wifi any longer. I have tried the following:
-Forgotten the network and tried to log in again fresh...Will connect to my airport extreme but will not connect to internet (Airport utility shows green lights everywhere except for internet, I show a full signal but the wheel just keeps spinning)
-Reset the network settings, same effect
-Reset the entire iPad, same effect
now I am to the point where I have to setup the iPad again via iTunes because it will not connect to the internet via WiFi
I have reset all modems and routers to factory settings and it still doesn't help.
Throughout all of this I am still able to connect to the internet via my airport extreme AND internet using two iphones, apple TV, my mac, and my pc.
Hoping for a solution on here, otherwise it looks like a day at the "genius" bar.

Connected to network but not the internet

Hi all,
Earlier today when I tried to get onto the web Safari wouldn't let me. It says I am not connected to the internet, although my airport has full bars. I was using the web this morning without any problems, this just suddenly happened. I have decided it is something to do with the computers wireless settings because I have it sitting right next to a Macbook Pro which connects wirelessly, as do 3 iPhones without any trouble, and I can use the internet when I have my Macbook plugged in via an ethernet cable.
I have repaired disk permissions, restarted a few times and tried to create a new airport connection without any luck. Network Diagnostics just says i am 'unable to join airport network'.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Tom

Connects to router, but not the internet

Since I got it about six months ago, my Macbook Pro (2.4 GHz Core Duo, 13-inch) has had issues with getting on the Internet. I don't think it is the router because it happens with other wireless networks; aslo my partner's Macbook (and my iPod touch) works fine on our network.
Anyway, when I open the computer up, it connects to the router fine but I can't access the Internet. I have to reset the router through its software (i.e. by going to its IP address in my web browser) for it to work, and then it's fine. It's irritating—I don't understand why it won't just connect to the Internet upon waking up.
The router's an all-in-one router/cable model provided by our Internet company (Rogers in Canada). But, as I said, I don't think the problem is the router as this happens with other networks and doesn't happen with my partner's Macbook.
Any ideas? Thanks!

I am renting an apartment for a month. It comes with internet access; modem and router. The owner's laptop connects fine. My iPhone connects fine. My wife's iPhone connects fine. Her MacBook cannot connect. I removed the owner's router and put my own in. Everything connects fine. Bottom line is just because a couple of systems connect doesn't mean it's not the router.

HT1595 When I connect with my wifi it comes up as connected to wifi but not the Internet and all my other devices work except the Apple TV and I'm not sure what to do

At first my Apple TV was stuck so I unplugged it and re plugged it so everything disappeared all my apps everything then when I tried hooking up to my Internet it said connected to wifi but cannot connect to the Internet so I'm not sure what that means or how to fix it

GH
When you say everything disappeared do you still have Computers and Settings icons? Try rebooting the router and apple tv with all cables out for 30 seconds. Does it work eathernet connected if you can try that too?

Can connect to airport but not always internet!!

We have up to 6 Wi-Fi devices in the house and for some reason only about two can connect to the airport at one time. We have road runner from TWC and I have called them and they said that the modem was working fine and reset it from their office. They said that the router AEBS was messed up. I've tried to reset all the settings and it worked for a little while, but then returned to it's old ways again. What's wrong? Am I missing something. This has been majorly stressful! FYI We have a Powerbook G4, MacBook, HP Desktop, Vaio Laptop, and 2 iPod touches.

I have reset my airport this was the second time i was toying with it all last night. I was able to get on the little website for our modem so I disabled that firewall and turned off it's wireless capabilities and a few other odds and ends. And then I redid all of airport. Now though I get an unresolved problem status with "Double NAT" it says and I quote that "This base station has a private IP address on it's ethernet WAN port. It is connected to a divece or network that is using Network Address Translation (NAT) to provide private IP Addresses. You should change your base station from using DHCP and NAT to bridge mode." I ignored it because it seemed to be working last night fine with all of our devices on at the same time. but then again last time I reset it, it worked fine for about 3 days and then went to it's old habits.

Connect to wifi but not the Internet

IPhone 6 Plus connects to Airport Extreme but not the internet

Light on my Airport Extreme is green and the Airport Utility on the iPhone 6 Plus shows that it's connected to the Airport, but not the internet. What the strange this is, I am still getting email and message notifications but just can't view them.
However the internet connection on both my iPad Air and Macbook Pro are working perfectly fine, and they are both connected to the same Airport Extreme.
The firmware on Airport is updated, I have tried to reset network settings and restarting the iPhone with no luck. Any suggestions on what to do?

Give me a screenshot of the working network IP setup on the MBP.
It should look like this. I need to see the IP address and you can also copy and paste for me the dns address.
The same thing from the iphone IP address and DNS will then help me figure out what is wrong.
If they both have an IP like 10.0.1.xx then the DNS or gateway (what apple calls router) has setup wrongly .. try setting manually with the same values exactly as the MBP.
If however the IP is something public like 200.100.2.100 and the other ipad is similar the Airport is setup wrongly in bridge and you have exhausted the available IP addresses so redo the setup of the Extreme so it is in router mode.

My PC is connected to my airport by Ethernet. I can connect to the network, but not the internet. My wireless devices can access the internet

My PC is connected to AirPort Extreme by ethernet, I can access the network, but not the internet. The wireless devices on the extreme can access the internet

Hey DM,
Is the Wireless(WL) router signal coming through the wired-router?
My ISP requires that my Wireless Router is identified from their end. I use AirPort Express, so they need its MAC address from the router. Without that, my network will show up, but my ISP doesn't recognize it and won't allow it to route he internet. I don't know your exact situation though.
Can other wireless computers access the internet? If they can through the WL router, then it might be the MacBook. If they can't, then you might want to contact your ISP and ask if they can see your wireless router?
Let us know.
Adam
