Internet over ethernet AND airtunes over wifi?

okay, so I have my airport express plugged into the sterio, but it's not permitted to be connected to the office network. So, I plug my macbook pro into the ethernet in the wall, and connect to airtunes over the airport. It plays fine for a few minutes then loses the remote speakers.
Is there any way to configure it to know that the only thing it does over airport is airtunes?

for anyone who might be interested, it just started working on its own.

TS1398 Having trouble accessing the internet over wifi on my iPhone 5.

Hello, I have a nearly brand new iPhone 5 in perfect condition. So far, I have had not problems with it, however recently, I have had major issues connecting to the internet over wifi. Some things that would happen would be apps that require an internet connection time out, and pages don't load in safari, and the reliabilty would be off and on.However after switching the wifi off and going off of my 4g, the connection was fast and I experianced no problems. I am positive this is not a problem with my home network, because my household had lots of people and LOTS of electronic devices that connect to the internet with no problem. I also have an ipod touch 4th generation that has been able to connect and browse the internet with no problem, it's just the iPhone that is being slow. Also, this isn't really a consistant pattern, occasionaly I will get it to work for like five minutes with no problems then it just time out on whatever it's doing.
Any help would be appreciated.

Well it might still be the Mavericks Wifi issue... slow throughput on an apparently strong signal is part of its behavior from what I've read. So to recap You got a signal (fairly Strong) appeared to be connected but Safari could not display the welcome page.
I'll share something I do in a case like that. I use Firefox. I keep a copy of Firefox, Opera and Chrome on my laptop because some sites use non-standard web code and the different browsers "play" better with the server/router. Safari is a lot better than it was when it first stared out but there are some sites put together (especially financial sites) that just won't let Safari play (they can code to prevent that).
If you have time between flights download Firefox and give it a shot... at this you have nothing to lose.
Good Luck.

Connecting a powerbook G3 to the internet via ethernet and a DSL modem. Does the G3 have the ability to do this?

I am trying to connect an older powerbook G3 (M4753) to the internet via ethernet and a DSL modem. Does the G3 have the ability to do this? I'm having alot of trouble. G3 Dialog box states the DHCP server will populate IP address, etc. It does not. The G3 also insists I enter the DHCP client ID.

Anything useful in the following articles?

Time Capsule connected to internet via ethernet and static IP address

Hi! I'm at my wits end and getting no help from my IT department. I want to use my Time Capsule to create a wireless network within my office. I can directly connect my TC to the internet via ethernet and an assigned static IP address. However, doing so I'm unable to connect to the internet using the created wireless network on my laptop. I've tried using the bridge option for sharing as well as the "sharing an IP address" and neither configuration is working. any thoughts?

I have the same setup; my ISP uses static IP only. No probs configuring a LinkSys router but with TC it's not obvious where to plug in the info. Can't ping the TC router via IP address to setup directly like the LinkSys which would be simple. Is the out of box router address really 10.0.1.1 on the LAN side? I want to use the 192.168 sequence and have changed it but still no success as I can't determine where to put the static IP! Can you give me something specific? By the way, it works fine thru the LinkSys router in Bridge mode.
Thanks,

Unable to browse internet over wifi on my iphone

I am unable to browse internet on my iphone 4 and ipad3 simultaneously over wifi.
Both iphone and ipad show connected over wifi but only my ipad can connect to internet. Along with ipad I have no problem in connecting laptop and my other android phone over wifi and browse but iphone won't.
I am using talktalk broadband. Please help

Does your phone receive a valid ip address from your router?
Does it work fine when connected to other wifi networks? If so, then I'd say your router is the culprit.

No Internet Over Wifi Internet Sharing

I am currently living in a dorm and connecting my MacBook Pro to the internet using the campus ethernet network. The campus also has its own wifi network but it is rather spotty and unreliable and it is completely impossible to connect an Apple TV to the campus Wifi (it is also impossible to connect the Apple TV to the campus ethernet).
For a while now I have been connecting my MacBook Pro to the ethernet and using the Internet Sharing option in System Prefs to create my own wifi network. This solution has allowed me to have a reliable wifi network to connect my iPhone, iPad, and AppleTV to while I am in my room. Unfortunately about 2 days ago the wifi network suddently stopped transmitting an internet signal. I can still connect to the network on all of my devices and I can still access the internet on my MacBook using the ethernet, but any device that is connected to my shared wifi netowork is incabable of accessing the internet. They still have all the ad hoc netowork capabilities like HomeSharing and AirPlay Mirroring on the Apple TV but none of them can access any internet content.
I have tried restarting every concievable device multiple times. I have plugged and unplugged cables. I have toggled and untoggled settings. None of this has worked and I am becoming very frustrated.
With these kinds of issues I have seen many commenters here recommend the purchase of a dedicated router instead of using the MacBook Pro but that is sadly not an option for me because routers in dorms are against school policy. Technically my little work around with the MacBook Pro is not realyl encouraged so going to my school for tech support is not really an option either. This solution is the only way I have ever been able to get my Apple TV to work in my dorm and I really just want it to work again.
If anyone has any suggestions that may help I would be really grateful.

@strech1
One of the probable causes of your concern is a corrupted firmware in your router. Doe your router have an EA Series Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Firmware or a Classic EA Series Cisco Connect Firmware? It would be best that your router have the latest EA Series Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Firmware installed. It would be best to update the drivers of the wireless adapter installed on your wireless computer.

GE Internet Settings - ethernet and Linxsys router

I can not get my G5 to work with my linxsys router via a built in ethernet and ethernet cord.
Are there any specials settings I should be using? IP Address? Subnet? Router?
Please help as it is making me crazy!

I can not get my G5 to work with my linxsys router via a built in ethernet and ethernet cord.
Hard to tell from that short description. It is best to describe what you have tried, what worked, what failed, and any error messages.
If the router has it's DHCP server enabled, you should configure your Mac's Network preference pane to use Ethernet and DHCP to get an IP address.

No internet over wifi, bizarre problem

Summary:
I cannot access the internet via wifi, but can with a wired connection. There is one other computer on the network, connected via wifi. It has access to the internet. I can file share and VNC to this other computer either wired or wireless.
So everything works exactly as I'd expect, except when I type in "www.apple.com" or whatever, the browser hangs and eventually says the server couldn't be found. Nothing outside of the network resolves, when I'm connected via wifi, except the machine on the local network (and the router/AP itself).
I've rebooted my machine, and in safe boot, and I've rebooted the router. So I'm totally at a loss how this is even possible. Nothing has changed with the laptop or the router, or the network, in 3-4 days.

Searched for "network reset" and found suggestions to delete the folder:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
I did this, restarted and now I have internet via wifi again. I don't understand why or how it stopped working in the first place let alone how this fixed it or even if it did.

5800 won't connect to internet over wifi

Ok, my 5800 xm will not connect to the internet via my netgear dg834gt router . The phone connects to the wifi connection but it will not load up a web page .
It will work via 3g .
I've been through the routers settings and the phones mac address is there and is set for access the same as my pc (which is working fine) .
Anyone help ?
Thanks
PS I've cleared the cache apart from saved passwords and done a soft reset . It's running on v5 software .

If the phone will connect to another wi-fi then its not the phone .
You could try a reset .
1. *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default ( you will not lose any data)
2. *#7370# - Reformat your phone
Lose all data so back up first
default reset code 12345

IPhone has internet over WiFi, however email doesn't work over wifi

Hi. I have wifi set up for work and home and I can get internet just fine, however when phone service is bad I can't send emails even if the wifi is full bars. At home my service is 0-2 bars and work I have nothing. Any suggestions?

Check your Outgoing Mail Server settings. If only have your cell phone carrier's mail server (i.e. AT&T SMTP Server) selected it may only work when using cellular data. Try selecting another outgoing mail server if you have another list.

How do I get my intel iMac G5 to connect automatically by airport to my wireless network without having to manually do it everytime after start up or sleep? It works on my other ppc imac G5.
Thanks in advanced,

Probably also a good idea to provide info on the hardware you are using to connect to the internet.

Can't connect to internet via router and airtunes at the same time

Can anyone help me connect to the internet via my BT Homehub, and play AirTunes through my Airport base station at the same time? I can only seem to do one at a time.
I've seen the articles about setting up clients etc but don't get it. Using the Airport Assistant utilty doesn't really help either. Would like someone to go through the steps I need to follow.
Thanks

To set up AirTunes on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, use the AirPort Admin Utility to check these settings:
AirPort tab
- Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
- Wireless Mode: Join an Existing Wireless Network (Wireless Client)
- Wireless Network: <select your BT Homehub wireless network>
Music tab
- Enable AirTunes on this base station (checked)
- Enable AirTunes over the Ethernet port (optional)
- iTunes Speaker Name: <whatever you wish>
- iTunes Speaker Password (optional)
In iTunes:
iTunes > Preferences... > Advanced > General
- Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes (checked)

No Internet via Ethernet but ok via wifi

Hi all, Bt home hub 2.0 Firmware 8.1.H.U (type A) Vista home premium sp2 I connect my desktop to my home hub via Ethernet cable. I connect other devices to my hub via wifi. I can connect all devices, wired and wireless, to the hub ok and can get to the hub manager. It reports connectivity to broadband is ok. My wifi devices can all access the Internet ok and download data and open web pages. My desktop cannot. The network and sharing centre shows Local Only. If I reboot the pc and restart the hub, I get local + Internet for no more than a couple of minutes but then it reverts to local only. Yet still my wifi devices are ok. Have tried swapping cable to a different port on the hub. Orange and green lights showing as normal at the network port on my pc. Suspect that the trouble exists between the pc and the hub. Has anyone any ideas? Assuming it doesn't fix itself I will try digging out a different cable and also attaching another computer via Ethernet cable to see what happens. Thanks Ian

The problem you have overcome is the issue surrounding the failure of the DHCP allocation and lease renewal within the home hub. It fails to maintain the association between the MAC (hardware) address of your network adapter, and the IP address/default gateway.
Why this happens it is difficult to say. It could be related to the Vista problem mentioned on this forum on an earier posting.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928233/en-us
If this also applies to Windows 7, then this would explain the problem.
You will probably find that when it disconnects, you lose the default gateway of 192.168.1.254
By giving it a static IP address, DHCP plays no part in the connection.
