E1000 won't connect to internet through cable modem
I just switched internet providers and now have a cable modem. The internet works when I have it plugged directly into my computer. My wireless card recognizes and connects to my E1000, but the E1000 won't connect to the internet even though the ethernet cable is plugged into the correct ports. The cable provider left because it's obviously a problem with the router itself.
I've tried all the usual tricks--resetting the modem, resetting the router, resetting the computer, etc. Unfortunately, another problem I discovered in the midst of all this is that I no longer have Cisco Connect installed on my computer, and I have somehow managed to lose the CD for it.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Suggestion:
1. Download the Cisco Connect software from the Cisco website (click HERE)
2. Connect the router, modem and hardwired the laptop to the router as well
3. Reset the router
4. Run the Cisco Connect software

Can't connect to internet, Motorola cable modem seems to freeze
I have had this problem more and more fequently the past three or four weeks: I'm connected to the internet by ethernet through a motorola cable modem (SB5101). As long as the PC activity light on the modem is rapidly flashing amber things are fine. As soon as the activity light goes solid amber with no flashing I can no longer connect to the internet or send or receive mail. During one of these "freezes" when I check network status in the network pane of system preferences the light beside ethernet is yellow and the message says-"Built in ethernet is currently active. Built in ethernet has a self assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the internet." When I check when my connection is working I get a green light and this message "Built in ethernet is currently active and has the IP address 70.44.etc. etc.(not sure if I should make the whole IP address public or not)You are connected to the internet through built in ethernet." I also notice when I check the Built in ethernet under network in sytem preferences that the IP address changes depending on whether the modem seems frozen or not. When disconnect the power to the modem and reconnect, I notice that within about two minutes the IP address changes and I can get back online again. Or at least I could. last time I did this the IP address did not change and I couldn't get back online. Now I'm using my iBook connected via ehternet, which is working fine for now (past 15 minutes). When I first plugged the iBook into the ethernet (I normally connect to the iBook through a snow airport, which I've disconnected to try to isolate this problem) I got this message(with an exclamation in a stop sign)-"IP configuration- 70.44.53.etc in use by 00:01:50:23:3e:c2 DHCP server24.229.54.226". I clicked through the box, and the iBook is still connected to the internet and working. I have contacted Motorola tech support, and it seems the modem is OK. I will contact my cable company next, but I don't have high hopes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your reply to my post. I was able to get back on the internet with the G4 using your suggestion, but the modem continues to freeze, whether connected to the iBook or the G4, using ethernet or airport. I will contact my ISP. -
No matter what, ATV2 won't connect to Internet through TC
I'm about to pull my hair out. My iMac and Blackbook connect to my wireless network through TC no problem, regardless of what I change in TC's setup (meaning changing the name of my network, channel, password, etc.). My new ATV2, however, connects apparently but cannot access the internet. I thought it may have something to do the ATV2 itself (faulty unit), but the same thing happens when I try to connect my HTC Evo to the network.
So I tried using a wired connection between the ATV2 and the TC. Same thing. Bad IP addresses, null values for router and domain, the works. Maybe use a crossover ethernet cable, as I understand ATV2 requires one...just didn't have one handy at the house.
Any ideas? I've read through numerous threads on this board, and I see where the "solution" is to reset the TC to factory settings, wait, then try again; other variations say to rename the network (done that).You say a crossover cable is not required, but I thought it was. See this link... >http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2274?viewlocale=en_US
Hmm, the link can be a bit misleading. You are attempting to connect your aTV2 to a TC. Notice that this would only require a crossover cable if you were trying to connect an older Mac product directly to either model of the aTV.
I currently have both versions of the aTV; one connected to a Cisco Ethernet switch directly back to a Cisco router, and the other connected to one of the LAN ports on an 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn). In turn the AEBSn is configured as a bridge and connects back to the same Cisco router. In both cases, neither of my aTVs is having any issues getting an IP address over an Ethernet connection.
I have also verified that both can get an IP address via wireless to the AEBSn as well.
Yes, the TC is my only router, and it's in bridge mode on channel 11, using WPK Personal security.
If the TC is in bridge mode, both its NAT & DHCP services are disabled. That would mean another device (router or server) is providing these services for Internet access. What is the make & model of your Internet modem? -
Unable to connect to internet with cable modem
I have a Imac about 2yrs old. Was running beautifully until lately. My modem shows all solid lights but for some reason it is unable to connect. Did all the things like rebooting, takng out the power cord on my modem letting rest a minutes. Changed the setting to manual from DHCP. Changed it back the other way.
Can someone help me,

I didn't know what Airport you had, so I included all of them. Select your model and try reseting it. If worse comes to worse, just do a Factory Settings Reset. You will have to configure it like you just took it out of the box. I have found that this usually fixes most AirPort problems.

AE Lost Internet Connection through Cable Modem
I suddenly lost all internet connectivity. Here's the setup and issues:
-- Two computers, a Mini and a PowerBook, both lost connection to Internet
-- Motorola cable modem (using Comcast)
-- Airport Express is connected to modem via ethernet
-- I can connect directly to the cable modem with the computer via ethernet and I can get internet service; also, Comcast assured me I still have service
-- The two computers can connect to each other via airport; file sharing, iTunes streaming, etc., works as usual
-- I've done all the usual "unplug everything and restart" routines
-- Nothing was changed recently that I can think of - it just lost connection to the Internet.
Any ideas?
PowerBook G4 17 1.67GHz 1.5Gb Mac OS X (10.4.6)I fixed it, but I don't know if it will solve the problem Ada had. I got a note from Comcast recently saying I needed to have my IP settings to be dynamic, by using DHCP. I had already made that change so didn't suspect that was the problem. However, after looking closely, I found some things to change.
If you're using Comcast, or a similar service, then this may fix it:
I first went out and washed my car, then came back in. I think that's an important step. I have a large car, so if yours is small, you may need to wash it twice, or wash it then wax it. Then go back inside and . . .
In Airport Admin Utility, select your base station, then Configure.
Switch to the Internet tab.
Make sure it's set to Configure using DHCP
Make sure DNS Servers, Domain Name, and DHCP Client ID are left blank (this is the step I hadn't done before).
Click Update and close the program and wait for your base station to reset.
This should fix it. -
Airport used to work fine, but won't connect to internet now
Hello. I bought my Macbook pro about two weeks ago and never had problems with my internet connection. I moved last week to another city, and had my wi-fi installed today. My brother has a Powerbook G4 and it worked fine with the new connection, but my Mac won't; it won't connect automatically when I turn the computer on and when I click on "open network preferences", nothing happens. I already got connected by clicking on Network Diagnostic in Safari, but i'd like to do so without going through all that everytime I need to get on the internet.
Can anybody help me to fix this problem? I'd really appreciate that. Thanks in advance.Tell us about your network. How are you connected to the internet? Cable modem, DSL?... Is there a router involved? Which one is it? System Preferences>Network>Show:Airport>TCP/IP are you getting an IP address?

Can't connect to internet through WRT54G
I can connect to the internet through DSL modem but cannot when going through the WRT54G. All lights on router lit correctly. Actually set up this router 6 months ago or so and worked both wired and wirelessly for awhile. Then could only access internet wirelessly with laptop. Started messing with the router to get it to work wired with desktop but now won't work. Can access the router set-up page but not sure what to change. Saw somewhere to change the routers IP address to 192.168.2.1 didn't solve the prblem. Have tried restoring factory defaults, recommended power on/off sequences (modem, router,pc) and holding reset button for 30 seconds. Also tried Easy connect tool on the Linksys site. Icon in lower right of pc screen indicates status as connected but still cannot connect to internet. Any help is very much appreciated.
ScottI had the very same problem with the same model router. It turned out to be the Security setting in Internet Options. The security setting was on Medium. After changing it to Medium-Low, I could connect to the internet through the router.
If you are not familiar with changing the Security setting, let me know and I will reply with the steps to take.

How to connect to Internet through a LAN
Hi everybody !!!
Please show me how to connect to Internet through a LAN (through another computer).
On Windows XP system, i use the following informations to do that:
+ My IP: 192.168 .1.45
+subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
+default getway: 192.168.1.12 (IP of another machine)
+Preferred DNS server: 85.255.192.2
+Alternate DNS server: 195.131.52.130
and in IE i use the proxy server: 192.168.1.12:8080
Thanks alot !!!Just how is the one computer connecting to the internet? What type of connection does the office have, DSL, Cable or is it a Data connection through a Cell phone provider.
I doubt all other computer are doing Ad-Hoc but are probably Sharing the Internet connection with Internet Connection Sharing from that one Windows base PC.
All you khave to do is Connect to that same WiFi SSID name and have the correct password for it. -
I'm not able with ipod touch to connect to internet through my wifi router, which is Sitecom 150N working fine with pc
Your router may not have given your iPod a valid IP address when the iPod requested it. To check on this go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address shown starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
Sometimes the fix for this can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPod (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router model and version (the 150n designation is not a unique model), the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), is MAC address filtering being used, etc. -
How to Parameter WRT54GS to connect to Internet through Livebox-2 ?
I intend to connect a network built around the WRT54GS to Internet by passing through a second network who is already connected to Internet through the Orange Livebox-2 (French).
I have a traditional home network with basic shares on the French Orange Livebox-2 and its WiFi.
The computers runs XP - Pro .
My ADSL access is normally through the Livebox-2
(Range of addresses 192.168.1.xxx) and I run DHCP
Working Group "WORKGROUP".
It works without problem (Internet and VoIP telephony) except the Wifi of the Livebox which is known as poor (range and stability).
I also manages a small "pedagogical workshop" for the school who visit my mill.
This network is available to my young visitors based on a (tower) server containing the libraries and teaching materials and its printer. It’s XP - Pro machine. and to allow a maximum of two laptops be WiFi connected.
The second network is built around the Linksys router (wich integrates no modem, simply a router).
The WRT54GS router (rev 6) whose firmware is original Linksys up to date.
I am setting the two Wi-Fi (Livebox 6 Cnl) and Cnl 4 on WRT54GS and different keys (this is manageable without difficulty).
It has its server DHCP and Wi-Fi to connect their machine.
What about the name of this second network group ? Currently “WORKGROUP” as well.
I am setting a range different on the router WRT54GS (192.168.2.xxx) and enabled the DHCP.
This "educational" network works perfectly when alone and separated from the "home" network and doesn’t get connected to Internet…
I want to connect this router Linksys WRT54GS rev6 cascading through the Livebox-2.
Share Internet via the Livebox-2 access.
What about functionality?
What is the connection to setup ?
Should it be simple physical connection with a cable between the yellow ethernet port "2" of the Liveboxbox and the "Internet" connector of the Linksys router?
Is this a good track to explore? I have searched extensively on the Internet but found proposals who are very old and refer to old Livebox... I did test and is not satisfactory...
I have described as well as possible the needs and the config!
It is the experts to speak now !
I am available for further information.
HOW CAN I ACHIEVE THE INTER CONNECTIVITY?From what I understand, you want to extend your internet connection - from the Orange Livebox-2 to your WRT54GS. You can actually do this by cascading the linksys router to your livebox. There are tow ways in cascading routers: LAN-LAN and LAN-WAN. For more information about cascading routers, you may refer to this link: http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=785463d9ecaf4cac84aed245b08d615f_3733.xml&pid=104&....

E2000 keeps losing internet connection on Motorola SBV5121 Cable Modem
I bought a E2000 last week. Used my wired PC to setup which failed as it said internet connection not detected.
tried reinstalling after powercycling the modem and routers but still it could not detect the internet.
I used my friends macbook pro to setup router wirelessless and the E2000 + internet connected successfully.
I connected my PC using ethernet and it worked bingo! Shortlived as in 2 days again no internet was detected. Now i have tried everything but no avail. My friend out of town so cannot try reinstalling it using Mac book.
Any known issues with the cable modem and Linksys E2000?
Thanks
AkshayBypass the router and connect your computer directly to the modem.
Make sure that you can access the Internet when you connect the computer directly to the modem.
If you can access the Internet through the modem then try to configure the router manually.
Connect the modem to the Internet port and computer to Ethernet port on the router. Press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds. Release the reset button and wait for 30 seconds. Now try to reconfigure the router manually.

Internet Connection Issues between Airport & Cable Modem
I'm posting this because I couldn't find a similar answered question here, and I hope to save someone else the grief I went through trying to get my wireless network working.
Bought an Airport Extreme to connect to my non-wifi cable modem. The Airport had no difficulty setting up the network, and all of our computers and wireless devices were able to connect to the network. Unfortunately, none of them could connect to the internet.
The problem turned out to be that you need to edit the default network configuration to add the DNS server addresses of your cable provider. As soon as I did that, all the devices had internet. As far as I can tell, the settings live on the modem, but are not picked up by the Airport in quick setup process.
I hope this saves someone else a trip to the Apple store or a long support call.

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. -
For the past few days my Mac Mini has been having issues.
Safari won't connect to internet, but Firefox does.
Time and date are frozen. Only resets when copmuter is re-booted.
Unable to update via App Store and iTunes won't connect either.
Please advise.Hi again,
Let me ask for some better help for you that is familiar with this problem (if in fact it is a similar problem with the IP address and your ISP.
The other topic concerning this can be found at:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2725608
It is a somewhat lengthy thread but may just apply to your situation.
Anyways I will see if I can call on some better help for you. Hang in there. Best to arm yourself with enough info before contacting Comcast so they might know what you are dealing with fully.
littleshouders
edit: I have posted for some extra help for you that may have a better idea of what's going on if it is your ISP and their modem and how it handles the IP address causing Safari and iTunes not to connect. Hang in there it may take awhile but I'm sure someone will pop in to help.
