Connecting to Internet with Windows Directions

Hello, I am currently deployed overseas and my room is hardwired for internet. They provided me directions to connect to the internet, but I am not having any success. These are the WINDOWS directions they provided:
1. Open Internet Explorer
2. Click on Tools
3. Click on Internet Options
4. Click on Connections
5. Click on LAN Settings
6. Type in Address: 10.100.0.1 Port: 8080
7. Click on OK
You are now connected to Internet.
What I did was go to:
1. Network
2. Built-in Ethernet
3. Clicked on Settings
4. Disabled the THCP (i think that's right)
5. Tabbed over to Ethernet and manually typed in the IP Address and Port above for all settings
6. Clicked "Apply Now"
But I still could not connect. Am I doing something wrong? Please help...thank you.

The instructions you were given appear to be incomplete. For a fixed IP address, you also need to enter a network gateway address and the address of the domain name server (DNS) serving your network. Without those, your system will not be able to connect to the Internet. You'll need to go back to whoever gave you those instructions and ask for the rest of the information.
Good luck.

    If the message that is displaying is "Network connection timed out", disable any Anti-Virus or Firewall software on the comptuer or check with the company that supports the product on how to modify it to allow iTunes to connect to the Internet.

    hi,
    Can you try to input the private ip address of the SAP router server instead of the public. Client should be connected in your network. 
    Thanks.

  • Can't connect to internet on Windows partition

    Since last week I can't connect to the Internet with Windows XP partition and BootCamp. I use DSL RCA Broadband to connect directly. I received message "No viable connection or impossible to connect"
    I call my IP provider a couple of times without result. They said signal is good but I can't get a IP address.
    Any ideas?
    Best regards

    The problem is not the router.. the issue is the vpn has put your computer in a different IP range with a different gateway. When you turn off the vpn the computer returns to local lan and can print.
    Some vpn software allows you to set gateway to use local net instead of remote gateway or access to other webistes or local lan.
    Read up the issue.

    I did not search much.. just grabbed the first article I could find that explains the issue.
    The whole point of the vpn is whilst it is connected your computer is NOT part of the Local Lan .. it is part of the Remote LAN via the vpn tunnel.
    It is also a security risk using split tunnelling so often it will not be allowed.
    Plug the printer directly into the computer via usb or whatever.. Local connection will work.. not local lan.

    Since the MacBook Pro currently works, you should put it next to the iMac and compare the network settings for AirPort in System Preferences Network pane Advanced. Also, if you want to start off with the default network settings, you can use Location drop down menu and select +Edit Locations+. Then click the plus sign to create a new location. Set up that new location.
    On System Preferences Network pane, AirPort should appear at the top of the list (in the sidebar). To change the service order, click on the gear icon and select +Set Service Order+.
    Some additional tests you can try, on top of seeing if it works with (1) WEP security disabled and (2) a direct wired connection to the router.
    If you get it to work with either (1) or (2), be sure to run Software Update at least two times to apply any recent updates from Apple. See if that makes any difference to using AirPort with WEP back on.
    (3) Start up in Safe Mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455
    I don't know if any third-party software has been installed on the iMac at this point, but Safe Mode will start up with only the essential Apple extensions and processes running. See if it works any better in Safe Mode.
    (4) Create a new admin user account in System Preferences Accounts pane
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8235.html
    Log out and log in to the new account. Try connecting with AirPort in the new account.
    (5) Connect the MacBook Pro to the router with a wired Ethernet connection. Make sure its Internet access works. On System Preferences Sharing pane, set it up for +Internet Sharing+ so that it is set to +Share your connection from Ethernet - To computers using AirPort+. On the iMac, try to connect to that wireless network and access the Internet.
    That last one (5) may be a good one to try first. It would at least show that the iMac's AirPort is working - you can even set it up to use WEP. If you have any questions about using the +Internal Sharing+ feature, please ask.

  • SHARE TIME CAPSULE AS THROUGH INTERNET WITH WINDOWS 7 SMB

    SHARE TIME CAPSULE AS THROUGH INTERNET WITH WINDOWS 7 SMB

    Most ISP correctly block SMB over internet. It is too insecure .. use VPN to a different router and place the TC behind it.
    Besides TC does not expose SMB to WAN.. same reason. You have to port forward SMB.
    You can use SMB on some strange port.. there are instructions if you want you networked just use them.

  • Canny connect to internet with airport express

    I was connected to internet with wireless network using airport xpress and D-link DSL-300T cable modemeverything was fine till i did base station fireware update. Now i can only connect wired with usb modem, (my airtunes still works). Airport status is green and states i am connected to internet via ethernet _though safria is unable to find server. Have tried loads of things but to no success. Tried network assist but network password invalid? though it is correct! Also done hard reset on xpress no joy.
    Any mac guru s fancy a challenge!?
    Pls.

    Likely your ISP uses the PPPoE protocol to connect to clients - and PPPoE doesn't work properly with firmware version 6.2 for the Airport Express.
    Downgrade the firmware on your Airport Express back to version 6.1.1 with this software:

    Hi bikernblondie,
    When you say that you're trying to connect to the internet with USB, do you mean that you're trying to connect your iPod to the internet so that you can surf the internet with a browser on your iPod, or that you're trying to connect your iPod to your computer so that you can sync it with iTunes and bring over songs, movies, apps, etc.?

  • How to use Time Capsule via INTERNET WITH WINDOWS 7 SMB Cloud

    how to use Time Capsule via INTERNET WITH WINDOWS 7 SMB Cloud

    Get a vpn router.. I have no idea where you are in the world but you can find reasonable stuff for not too much money or even a general router that takes third party firmware like dd-wrt can run openvpn. 
    Set up the vpn router in place of the TC, as the main router in the network. Simply bridge the TC and place it behind the router. It will be accessible as part of the network via the vpn.
    This is the only safe way to do it via windows.
    http://www.dyncommunity.com/questions/18132/accessing-time-capsule-from-windows- 7-over-the-int.html
    If you google around I have seen posts about how to access TC by port forwarding SMB on the TC.. using a different port.. To me this is going to slow down the hackers by a day or two.. then they will discover the open port and access your network.. not just the TC.. they now have SMB access to everything. Don't do it. There is very little security on SMB.

  • I can connect to internet with my MBP through Airport Extreme, but my iOS devices can't. Please help.

    I can connect to internet with my MBP through Airport Extreme, but my iOS devices can't. Please help.

    GerleMan, Welcome to the discussion area!
    There are two probably causes:
    Your ISP is blocking the port used by Entourage to send mail and the ISP used by the other wireless networks is not.
    OR
    Your ISP doesn't like OS X's default MTU seting of 1500. If this were the case it should also affect any large file transfers you try to make from your Mac to the Internet.

    Ok..So you mean still cannot accessing the website with Internet connection? Try to use nslookup in command prompt to check whether can resolve domain name correctly. Also make sure you can ping the router's LAN IP from computer.
    If not, you can try to use the following DNS servers from OpenDNS.com:
    208.67.220.220
    208.67.222.222
