Gave up on connecting to Internet via AXP - now what?

I was able to connect to the Internet via Airport Express w/out problems for a year & a half - SpeedStream 5200 modem thru DSL & IS providers here in Brazil. Then I upgraded the firmware to 6.3 in early January & got the endless "looking for pppoe host" message. I changed nothing else - same modem, same computer, etc. I downgraded to 6.1.1, factory reset the base station, cleared cache & reset Safari, no luck. Upgraded to 6.2, factory reset, no luck. Upgraded to 6.3, same result. Downgraded to 6.1.1 again, reset base station, cleared cache, & it's still looking for pppoe host. Apparently, 6.3 scrambled my connection for good - I've tried everything suggested in this forum innumerable times & have now officially given up. My question is, does anybody know what I can buy to regain wireless internet capability? Computer equipment is prohibitively expensive in Brazil - an Airport Express base station is @ $350 - & I don't want to invest large amounts of cash in something that isn't going to fix the problem.
If I bought a new modem would that likely solve the problem?
If I switched to cable, would that solve it? Does Airport have the same "looking for pppoe host" issue - a problem a whole lot of people appear to have - with cable modems?
If I bought a different wireless router, would that solve it? I've been using Macs for 20+ years but after this experience I'd be happy to never see another Airport Exanything. Are there other wireless routers that are compatible w/Macs?
Thx. for any suggestions.

    When you use the Airport utility what happens?

    Wi-Fi Setup Considerations
    Things to consider before you begin
    Start with a plan for the physical layout. Depending on whether you have an existing Wi-Fi network, or if you are using your AirPort Express as a standalone Wi-Fi device, there are several options available for you to choose from.
    When using Ethernet, Cat6 cable is recommended.
    The layout you choose should take into account environmental factors such as physical access, location, range, radio frequency interference, etc.
    You will need to consider what AirPort Utility settings to adopt.
    You will need to know whether you are using an AirPort Express (802.11b/g) or an AirPort Express (802.11a/b/g/n).
    If you will be using more than one Wi-Fi base station, it may be helpful to read the article Extending the range of your wireless network by adding additional Wi-Fi base stations.

    my macbook pro is connected to internet via my time capsule but my iPad and iPhone won't. it shows wifi connection to the time capsule but when i go on to the internet on the iPad or iPhone, it comes up with network error. can anyone help?

    This can be caused by a number of issues.
    Was everything working and then suddenly stopped??
    Or is this a new clean setup and has never worked.
    Do you have a cable modem which is not a router and the TC setup in bridge? That will cause it. The TC must be in router mode, ie dhcp and nat.
    Check the IP the MBP gets including dns and gateway..
    Then check the ipad/iphone.. post what IP dns and gateway (router in applespeak) they get.

  • Automatically connect the Internet via dial up connection?

    Hi all,
    I am using LabVIEW 6i. I require to connect the internet via modem. I want this to be done automatically. I read some of the discussion here which discuss some AT protocols. Sorry, but I am not aware of these protocols.
    After this auto connection I want to get data from some links. I think this I could using URL property of the windows' browser. If some one has other options please let me know.
    Thanking you.

    I'm not sure I understand your problem. Do you want to dial up a flow controller and talk to it via
    Modbus? I am familiar with Modbus and modem connects.

  • HT4623 After ios update on my ipad mini i am unable to connect to internet via cellular connection

    i Have update ios 7.0.2 on my ipad mini. But after update of ios 7.0.2 i am unable to connect to internet via cellulau connection. Cellular connection appears on my screen but i get error as "Could not activate cellular data network you are not subscribed to a cellular data service". Cellular connection was working prior to ios 7.0.2 update. Please help.

    GOT MINE FIXED -
    THE 7.0.3 update reported my iPhone as LOST or STOLEN  to Verizon.
    They suspended my iPhone service immediately (as I would expect them to) and THAT is why I couldn't get on.
    Called Verizon wireless - they restored me in 30 seconds - EVERYTHING WORKS AGAIN.
    They said "we've been doing this ALL MORNING."
    Hope this works for others, too!
    You blow bright orange chunks, Microsoft, er, I mean, Apple.

    Enabling Oracle Management Service to Access My Oracle Support
    Unless online access to the Internet is strictly forbidden in your environment, Oracle Management Service should be enabled to access My Oracle Support. This access is necessary to enable updates and patches to be downloaded, for example.
    At minimum, the following URLs should be made available through the firewall:
    aru-akam.oracle.com
    ccr.oracle.com
    login.oracle.com
    support.oracle.com
    updates.oracle.com
    About the dontProxyfor Property
    When you configure the Oracle Management Service or a Management Agent to use a proxy server, it is important to understand the purpose of the dontProxyFor property, which identifies specific URL domains for which the proxy will not be used.
    For example, suppose the following were true:
    You have installed the Oracle Management Service and several Management Agents on hosts that are inside the company firewall. These hosts are in the internal .example.com and .example.us.com domains.
    You have installed several additional Management Agents on hosts that are outside the firewall. These hosts are installed in the .example.uk domain.
    You have configured Enterprise Manager to automatically check for critical software patches on My Oracle Support.
    In this scenario, you want the Oracle Management Service to connect directly to the Management Agents inside the firewall without using the proxy server. On the other hand, you want the Oracle Management Service to use the proxy server to contact the Management Agents outside the firewall, as well as the My Oracle Support site, which resides at the following URL:
    http://support.oracle.com
    The following properties will prevent the Oracle Management Service from using the proxy server for connections to the Management Agents inside the firewall. Connections to My Oracle Support and to Management Agents outside the firewall will be routed through the proxy server:
    proxyHost=proxy42.example.com
    proxyHost=80
    dontProxyFor=.example.com, .example.us.com
    PS: Cygwin has nothing to do with My Oracle Support connection. Cygwin is ONLY required for agent deployment using agent push from OMS.

  • I have a Mac connected to Internet via DSL modem. Just bought iPad (today). What hardware do I need to set up wireless LAN so iPad can be used anywhere in house? Will Linksys work with Apple?

    I have a Mac connected to Internet via DSL modem. Just bought an iPad2 and need to know what hardware do I need to add wireless LAN so I can use iPad anywhere in the house. Will a Linksys router work with Apple? Can Mac be "hardwired" and iPad wireless? Probably stupid questions but I need to learn. Thanks.

    Thanks for the info. You are correct. I was speaking in general terms here based on my experience with the two devices in day to day use, and not in terms of exact specifications.
    A better choice would have been to say that the "coverage" is about the same with the edge going to the Extreme....due to the newer mutliple antenna design.
    We sure could use more help on the forums. Hope that you will become a regular.
    Hi Bob
    RF is a minefield, but one that I have worked in for ages, the most critical factor in my experience is location, location, location!
    Better routers have more intelligently designed antenna systems, output power as I said is the same, radiation pattern (coverage) is dependent on antennas and physical location more than all other factors.

  • Can't connect to internet via MacBook Pro to Airport Extreme

    I can't connect to internet via MacBook Pro to Airport Extreme. I reset AE and modem (power down and back up again). Some computers on my home network will connect fine and others won't. The ones that won't don't populate the DNS server or the Search Domains. AE shows up on all the machines. I have one computer also connect to AE via ethernet and it has the same symptoms. Why do some Macs connect and others don't. Even when I get them to connect when I shutdown or put in sleep mode over night I lose the internet connection and have to start all over. Very frustrating.

    Regrettably no replies. I have struggled with this for days with no success and I have given up on the Airport Extreme. I have found several other Forum posts with very similar problems and no one seems to have a solution to this. It seems other wireless routers work better than the Apple product. I was able to get my old Linksys wireless router reset and it is set up and working well. The Linksys router does populate the DNS servers and domains where as the AE does not. Apple engineers should look into this. If I am mistaken and there is a fix for this someone please let me know, otherwise my AE will probably appear on Ebay very soon.

    when i use CA-53 cable to connect to internet using nokia pc suite7.0.8.2 (one touch access) an error message pops up "unable to connect to the speified device make sure the modem is configured properly" but i can easily connect to internet via bluetooth   other functions like file manager , contacts , messages and back up can be accessed by using the CA-53 cable

    I called a vw dealership (in South Australia) today because I have an iphone5 and a Tiguan and experienced the same thing (after i had purchased the lightening/30pin adapter).
    I was advised that the media interface software is not compatible with iphone5.  VW will eventually update the software according to ol'mate at the dealership, but it will be at an expense to the consumer allegedly.
    I know that there is a iphone/vw media cable one can purchase from VW however, I believe this to only work with iphone4 or older?
    Maybe try an older generation ipod to use for the car if all ur music is in itunes?
    if anyone can correct me, I'd be more than happy to know... going to try my older generation ipad and see if there is any truth to the tale.... eventually.  Until then i'll stream via bluetooth :-)

  • "Connected to internet via Ethernet" ... but won't work

    Looks like I have it set up correctly. Says "Connected to internet via Ethernet", yet I am getting absolutely no internet. Where have I gone wrong?
    Oddly enough, it even says this when there is no ethernet cable plugged into it and is blinking amber.
    What is going on?

    Assuming you have a cable or DSL modem cabled to the Airport Express ethernet port... pull power to both the modem and the Airport Express for five minutes (or up to thirty minutes if you can stand it). Then plug power into the modem and wait a minute. Then plug power into the Airport Express and wait a minute. Hopefully your connection with your ISP will now have reset, and the Airport Express will get an IP address and show a solid green status light.
