Unfortunately don't worked. I've done that: systemctl enable dhcpcd.service, but when I rebooted the system, I had to configure it again.

Have network connection, but no internet connection

My son has a Macbook that he can use to connect wirelessly at school, friends and even to our neighbors wireless connection no problem. We purchased a Linksys WRT54G so that he could connect at home. He has a network connection with a full signal, but when he tries Safari he gets a message that he has no internet connection. I've checked the settings suggested in other places in the forum, and they are ok. I'm afraid to mess around too much (even if I knew what to do) because I don't want to ruin his ability to connect at school. I am not very computer literate and this is our first Mac, so any help would be very much appreciated.
The router is WEP enabled. I have entered the key with a $ in front and it is being accepted, but even if I disable WEP, I can't get an internet connection.
In system preferences - Network
Airport is set by default to join: Automatic
TCP/IP is set as follows - Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
IPv6 Configure: Automatically
Does anyone have any other ideas?
Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.6)

cmdmom, Welcome to the discussion area!
Create a new location following the directions in KB 106653, Using network locations in Mac OS X. Then he can easily switch between the current (school) settings and settings for the home network.
After the new network is created and selected, ensure that there is no proxy defined and ensure that the DNS fields are blank in the Network preference pane.

Internet Connect

To go along with my airport status not showing up in the menu bar I cannot get Internet Connect to launch. I thought maybe I need to check something in it to get the airport to show up in the menu bar but it will launch. It acts like it is going to but then closes. Anyone have any ideas. Do I need to reinstall Internet Connect and if so where do I download it from?

Hi Kerry,
Hummm. If there's not com.apple.internetconnect.plist file, I think that your system believes that Internet Connect has not run before... I believe that the "internetconfig.plist" you reference sets the actual internet configuration for your computer.
If you don't have Internet Connect on your system, or if somehow it's become corrupted, I'd suggest downloading a copy of Pacifist from http://www.charlessoft.com/
Pacifist will allow you to install individual applications and files from your OS X install disk, and should allow you to install Internet Connect.
I'm doing a lot of traveling this week, so I'll likely have intermittent internet connectivity--sorry I won't be too much help while I'm off line!
Hope this helps in the meantime!

Can't connect to the internet right after boot up

Hey guys, I have an interesting problem in which if I try to use internet right after boot up (via scripts) I can't resolve host names. However, if I try to use the internet right after boot up manually I can resolve host names. I had this problem with a script but I've since rewrote it to work around the problem; however I now seem to have this problem with openVPN and I need this to work. I'll use openVPN as my primary example but the situation was the same for my script.
Basically, openVPN starts up via systemd and it can't resolve my server's host name. Even 18 hours later. I have 'resolv-retry infinite' in my conf file which as I understand says 'if you can't resolve the host name keep trying to resolve it indefinitely'. I left my computer on overnight and openVPN still could not connect to my server, despite me being able to ping it, have MySQL get data dumps and replicate from it and other software being able to resolve the server's host name. If I restart openVPN, then it works! I rebooted the computer and let it try for a few minutes to connect and it couldn't. I restarted openVPN manually and it resolved the server's host name, 5 minutes after the computer booted up even though it couldn't connect on it's own the previous night.
Here's openVPN's status as of this post:

Anyone have any idea what could be going on? It seems to me that when a program starts up it takes a snap shot of the current network status and it then uses it, even if it's 10 minutes later and the network has been fully loaded/configured, the program uses that snap shot and can't connect to the DNS.

'Requires=network.target' wasn't in it so I added it but nothing's changed. I've left it in because openVPN does require network.
As I said, I had this problem with a script so I don't think it's anything specific to openVPN. I had a weird occurrence this morning however. When I started the computer up this morning openVPN worked just fine. However when the computer rebooted openVPN couldn't resolve the host address again.

Boot Camp Assistant says There is no USB drive connected to the system

I have a mid-2012 11” Macbook Air and a USB Superdrive. I am trying to use Boot Camp Assistant but it is not letting me proceed. With the Superdrive plugged and Windows 7 (full version) DVD in the drive, I get the message “No USB Drive” – “There is no USB drive connected to the system. Please insert a USB drive to continue.”
I checked using Finder and Go->Computer and there is the Windows 7 installation DVD mounted properly. The Superdrive spins up when I plug it in. I tried both USB ports. I tried re-booting with the Superdrive attached. The laptop is plugged in and there is an internet connection. It is running Mac OS X 10.8.3. I read the Installation and Setup PDF guide and there was no mention of the problem. I searched these forums and found that two other people are/have experienced the same problem, but there is no posted solution.

Randall Venhola wrote:
At the second step in the wizard, there is a dialog with three check-boxes. The only way I can proceed is if I uncheck the option "Download the latest Windows support software from Apple". When checked, I get the "No USB drive" message. Checking or unchecking the other two options does not change the behavior ("Create a Windows 7 or later install disk" and "Install Windows 7 or later"). I have tried with the Superdrive attached with Window 7 in the drive, with a blank DVD and without the Superdrive.
You are not following the Boot Camp instructions. Did you select the option to read the instructions? When running Boot Camp Assistant you are given the option to download the support software. If this is selected you must connect a usb stick that is correctly formatted per the instructions. At this point in the process you sshould not have your superdrive or Windows dvd connected.
Read the instructions.

new imac running lion 10.7.2 partitioned HD for duel boot and successfully installed windows xp pro (sp2)....have internet through eithernet cable on the mac side but no internet connection on the windows side....need drivers???? please help

I too am running xp spiii on my mac with lion. However I installed xp while running snow leopard then upgraded to lion and both are running fine. If you have the support disc that came with the imac all the relevant drivers are on there. The only other thing i would suggest is that you get spiii and upgrade to that.

Windows 7 - Boot Camp - No Internet Connection

Hello,
I just installed windows 7 (enterprise 64bit) onto my iMac (running the latest OS). When I log onto the Windows 7 OS it says I have no internet connection. I use wireless, is this a problem with my network working with windows 7? wireless works on Mountain Lion just fine. Any tips on how to resolve this issue? I looked online for help and it says to reinstall the drivers from the boot camp CD. But these were old post when they use to have CDs for Boot Camp, it is now just an application on my mac. I would appreciate any help or suggestions.
Thank you,
Zach

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Windows requires Boot Camp drivers to work correctly on a Mac.
1. Press Option key when your Mac starts and choose Macintosh HD.
2. Open Boot Camp Assistant, download the Boot Camp drivers and burn them into an USB disk or DVD.
3. Start in Windows and install Boot Camp drivers

Boot Camp Windows 8.1 WiFi Internet Connectivity

I have a MacBook Pro (Mid 2012) running Yosemite, and I have installed Windows 8.1 via Boot Camp.
Most everything on my Windows OS works well, but I'm hitting an odd problem with the Internet connectivity. Sometimes, I can only get to certain sites in Internet Explorer, and NOT through Firefox or Chrome. And now, after initially installing a few days ago, I can no longer connect to the Internet via my Evernote, Dropbox, or Git apps.
Has anyone else out there experienced something similar? It could be that this is just a Windows issue and I need to post a similar query elsewhere, but I thought I would start here. I don't see any errors anywhere in my Device Manager, and I even manually added Evernote to list of apps that is supposed to be able to access the Internet via a private connection, but still no joy.

1. Your MBA does not support EFI/Free Space method.
2. You need to ensure that your USB is a USB2 device.
3. The MBR should be checked, because there are known cases where BCA fails to create the MBR.

WR110 and Windows 7 + Im connected to Internet but Icon in system tray shows red X

Hi all,
I just upgraded both my notebook and Desktop, both of which are wireless. The Notebook connected just fine, and the system tray shows connection bars. However my destktop is also connected, but it shows the red x. Not sure what I need to do to stay connected and have Wireless strength bars reappear. When I click the connection it says " The settings saved on this computer do not match the requirements for the network". Also when I click on the red X in the system tray, the connections pop up, and I see the green bars and it says connected, but a few seconds later it goes to the red X, but Im still connected to the internet. I have ATT DSL and they recently bridged the router to the DSL modem using PPPoe, but that was before I upgraded both PCs to 7 and I did not have this issue prior to upgrading.

Quack,
I gave that a try, and changed my SSID. On my notebook, it of course lost the Internet connection, I saw the new wireless network, and typed in the PW and it connected without issue. However the DT which is where I am having the issue, is still doing the same thing. I am connected to Internet as that is where Im typing this email from, but the 5 bars in the lower are still show that X even tho Im connected. It does say the Security types do not
match, so I would go in and change to WPA Personal, TKIP, and type in the password, but still nothing. I have noticed that when I enable and disable my Wireless adapter in the Desktop, 2 icons come back, one for the adapter, and one called. Microsoft Virtual WiFI miniport adapter, which I have disabled, but it does not make any diff if its enabled or not.

Enable responses from 2 separate internet connections on the same system

Hello List
I am hoping one of the network gurus here can help me out. I've spent quite a few hours trawling these forums and others online to try to find the answer to my question, but success has not been forthcoming.
My situation is this. I have a system that functions as a server that is connected to two separate internet connections. The G5 tower is hooked up to each via Ethernet. Each connection has a manually configured connection with a fixed IP. The gateways for each are using different IP ranges, the IP for en0 is 10.0.1.59 and en2's IP is 192.168.1.145. They each have different gateways configured as well, 10.0.1.1 and 192.168.1.1 respectively. 192.168.1.145 is the DMZ system for that internet connection. Here is the default entry in the system's routing table:
Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire
default 10.0.1.1 UGSc 4 8 en0
I need both interfaces to reply to requests to their public IPs backthrough the correct gateway and not the default gateway. This is because of bandwidth constraints and the need to perform nightly backups of substantial amounts of data from our business hour VOIP connection, but allow the existing default gateway to remain first in the network service order list.
I have thus far tried the following based on what I could learn from this and other forums across the Web. I have enabled forwarding with the following command:
sudo sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=1
Then I have applied a fwd rule to ipfw that purports to route requests made to the en2 local address back through the correct gateway:
sudo ipfw add fwd 192.168.1.1 ip from 192.168.1.145 to not 192.168.1.145 out
However, this does not work and there is no response from en2 gateway when trying to access the system from that gateway's public IP.
Can anyone see something obvious that I'm missing or point me at an online resource that will let me figure out how to get this working?
Many thanks in advance.

I sounds like what you need is a static route to the IP address of whatever is on the other end of the Retrospect request. The command would look something like this:
sudo route -n add -host host_address -gateway router_address
where host_address is the IP address of whatever the Retrospect request is going to, and router_address is the gateway you want it to go out of.
A caveat here is that the route entry does not survive a reboot, so you'd want to create a startup item, or preferably a launch daemon to do this for you automatically on startup.

How do I maintain license on systems with no internet connection?

I will be installing CS6 on PCs with initial internet connection, but they will be moved into a space without any internet.
How do I keep the CS6 working without the connection?
Is there a license file I can download then apply to the systems without the connectivity?

Hello Scott,
Adobe has prepared this informations: https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html
>>> Additional information for users who are temporarily unable to connect >>> ...I quote:
What happens if it's necessary to be offline for a while?
The Creative Cloud software makes a call to Adobe servers once a day to verify the account status.
If the account is in good standing (that is, payment is up-to-date) when the last call happens, the software status is refreshed to run for at least 99 days while being offline.
Note: Signing out and signing back in (while online) just before going offline for a long period ensures that the software works for at least 99 days without needing to connect.
The software still reminds you to connect to the Internet during this time. These reminders can be suppressed until the last 30 days, when a daily message prompts you to go online and refresh the software status.

Pbms w T400 after bios update: long time to boot, TPM&internet connect pbms

Hello,
I have a T400 thinkpad, type 7417 that I bought in the US in Nov 2008 (it was downgraded from vista to xp). In November 2011 the computer was running slow so I decided to clean it up a bit and then do the maintenance recommended by the thinkvantage program. I proceeded to do all the smaller updates and the last one that was recommended was updating the BIOS (from what I understood). I left the computer doing these updates overnight, making sure it was plugged into a power source as specified by the update.
The next morning I found that my computer took 5-10minutes to start up and when it did, the screen resolution was altered as if it was in safe mode or something…I removed the HD and saved my data, then tried to use the Rescue and Recovery program to revert to factory settings. Although it seems that the factory settings were indeed restored I still have many problems with the computer. 1. it takes 5-10min to start (blank screen pre-windows logo) 2. it gives me 2 error messages once it has booted: 2a. "Tvttcsd application has encountered a pbm and needs to close." 2b. "There was a pbm connecting to the tpm (security devie) on this computer. It is possible that anti-virus or firewall software is blocking the connection. A missing or disabled driver could also cause this problem. Please refer to the online documentation for more information." 3. it cannot connect to the internet (either wifi or ethernet) 4. Ad-aware tells me it detects a malicious program running but cannot seem to clear it. I have seen several threads about these problems but cannot figure out if they are all connected or not. Before touching anything I was hoping for some help on how to proceed - I am no expert but I can follow instructions I am currently running avast on the computer to hopefully get rid of whatever viruses there may be and see if that can solve the problem. All help is really really welcome please!!!! lore

When I try to look into the Windows firewall I get the following error message:
"Cannot start Windows firewall/internet connection sharing service."
Not sure if both of these are related or not. Any ideas? Would re-installing windows help?
Thanks so much for your help! lore
Did you "optimize" your computer with "Tuneup utilities"? This might cause problems like that.
Also check, whether the services "Windows Firewall" is set to start "Automatic" and running.
Third party desktop-firewall like Zonealarm, Kaspersky or Symantec Internet Security also can cause that problem. In that case remove it including all policies, test the connection and re-install it. Activate training-mode and disallow automatic blocking unknown outgoing connections.
