Contact your ISP provider, the user manual that should have came w/the modem or your ISP and/or see KB Article http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106749 *Troubleshooting a cable modem, DSL, or LAN Internet connection*

how to connect to internet by using Ethernet Cable
I have apple mac book pro with retina display.plz send me the setting thank uThere's no setting. Plug in the cable to the adapter for either USB or Thunderbolt and plug the other end into your router. You can turn off wireless at that point.

Slow Internet speed using ethernet cable.
Hi
I have a an old imac, still working and running on 10.5.8 !!
I still use it for music and simple word processing.
I have linked it up to the internet with a ethernet cable and the internet speed is vastly differnet to by ipad / iphone using wifi.
I syspect that its the imac and not the router?
Any idea what has gone wrong and why ethernet connect is not faster than wireless
ThanksDOH!
It occurs to me --finally-- why you may be seeing this slowness on a wried connection. That latest G4 iMacs retained the 10/100BASE ethernet port Apple used to put on all consumer and educational Macs. The PowerMacs and PowerBook were considered "pro" models and had 10/100/1000BASE ethernet ports--much faster.
You may see improvement by going wireless if your iMac has USB 2.0 ports:
NewerTech MAXPower 802.11n/g/b High-Performance Wireles USB Adapter w/bonus ext cradle. For Mac & PC
It will give wireless "n" speeds if used in a USB 2.0 port--that's the protocol your other devices are probably using.
To see if you have USB 2.0 ports, hold OPTION and, while hlding it, click the Apple menu. In 10.5, the first entry should change to "System Profiler." Launch it.
In the opening screen:
find the code in the second line that I've indicated with the red arrow; for a G4 iMac the line will be "PowerMacx,x"--please post your code and your screen size (15, 17, or 20). From that we can find out if you have USB 2, making the wireless option viable. -
I have cable triple play service. Phone service ios internet based and depends on cable provider modem. I pay monthly charge for modem. I also want to use modem for ipad2. Is there any modem that can support both internet based phone as well as ipad2?
If I understand you correctly, I have the same configuration. My modem supports Internet and phone service and my television service bypasses the modem. It does not do any routing. It has a single Ethernet port and I plugged in an external router with a WiFi radio - Apple Airport Express. Works like a champ.
Configuration of the Express was difficult. I had to plug it in to AC power and to the modem. Then, I opened up Airport Utility and had to click "yes" for each recommendation. Then I had to really think hard to come up with a WiFi password. Took me a horrendous thirty seconds from start to finish! -
Hi there, my internet is crashing everytime I use my macbook pro/safari it happens roughly every 2 mins, it can happen on any website.
I am not technical at all and I am at a total loss of where to start with this. I did a bit of research on the internet but no luck in finding any
help.
Basically I am not sure if it is a modem of safari problem. I have no problems when using my HP on without windows explorer on the internet.
I am working wireless ADSL 2 - Bigpond - 2 Wire 2701 HGV-W and a macbook pro purchased around 5 months ago. Since the purchase date
I have had problems with internet.
Safari brings up a page you are not connected to the internet. I then look at the modem and DSL and internet lights are both flickering and or/off.
They then re-set themselves. I then have to re-set preferences on safari and quit and restart.
I have also tried using with cable into mac and modem and no difference.
I can only figure that maybe Safari is not compatible with the modem? could this be the case?
Thanks for reading and any assistance would be appreciated.
FiThere's an Apple help page on the DNS problem - at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3408
The first thing to try is changing your DNS settings - and for that you need to open System Preferences, then the
Network section.
In Network - click on Advanced - then the DNS tab
under DNS servers - use the + button to enter two extra lines
either these, from google dns
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
or from OpenDNS
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
then click OK & then 'Apply'
You would need to do that seperately for the Cable (Ethernet) settings and Wireless (Airport) -
I have a Macbook Pro (2013) OS 10.8.1. Moved into a university house and need to use ethernet cable. Bought the Thunderbold connection but when I try to use the ethernet with it a webpage comes up saying Wireless Setup and Router Setup? I have previously used ethernets in similar situations and never had to input information like this?
I have tried to turn of the wi-fi but that doesn't work either. I think it could be a something to do with the internet provider because virginmedia comes up on the webpage. This is what comes up:
Wireless Setup
WGR614V9
V1.0.11_1.0.1VGUK
Wireless Setup
Name (SSID):
Security Passphrase (WPA-PSK):
(8-63 characters)
Channel:
01 06 11
Router Setup
Router Password:
(8-63 characters)
any ideas?!? -
I want to connect to the internet using ethernet cable.
I want to use ethernet cable to connect to the internet. I follow the instructions, I am still unable to connect to the internet with the ethernet cable. I want faster browsing and uploads and download speeds
If you have a router connect an Ethernet cable from the cable/DSL modem to the WAN port on the router. Connect another Ethernet cable from one of the router's LAN ports to the Ethernet port on the computer. Open Network preferences, select the Ethernet port and click on the Advanced button. Click on the TCP/IP tab then select DHCP from the Configure IPv4 drop down menu. Click on the Apply button.
Turn off the computer, router, and modem. Wait at least one minute. First, turn on the modem and wait until the status lights indicate connection to your ISP. Second, turn on the router and wait until the status light shows communication with the modem. Last, turn on the computer.
If you do not have a router, then do the same as the above except that the Ethernet cable connects from the modem's Ethernet port to your computer's Ethernet port. -
HOW CAN I CONNECT IPHONE 4 INTERNET TO MY PC USING USB CABLE
HOW CAN I CONNECT MY IPHONE 4 INTERNET CONNECTION TO MY PC USING USB CABLE AND I HAVE DONE TETHERING IN MY PHONE AND ALSO DOWNLOADED ITUNES USING FLASH DRIVE AS I HAVE NO INTERNET CONNECTION IN MY PC AND IN MY PC THERE IS NO DETECTION OF ANY APPLE DEVICE. PLZ HELP ME
First, knock off the all caps typing. It is considered shouting, rude, and is just plain hard to read.
Since you use the term "PC," are you using an Apple computer or something that is Windows based?

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. -
Internet connectivity using E51 modem through USB
Dear ALL,
I have been using my E51 as a modem for my laptop. After 2 days of usage the USB driver reinstalled automatically. After then I couldn't use the phone to browse the net. Whenever, I try to establish the connection the program says connection could not be established as another program is accessing or the modem is not configured properly.
After, trying lot of stuff. I uninstalled all the nokia programs from my computer.
Yesterday, I downloaded the latest PC Suite 7.1 and installed it. But when i click on the internet it says modem not found. Later, I couldn't find the USB icon at the bottom most toolbar.
The issue with drivers usually come up when the USB is disconnected manually (Usually we have to remove it safely by stoping all programs).
Can NOKIA please help me?Try going to your pc control panal > add/remove program > look for pc connectivity sollution > change > repair.
you must be logged in with the admin account.
-then try to connect using one touch access from PC Suite again.
Mark me a KUDOS if this has helped... -
My 2G ATv recently can't detect any wifi connection... Tried restoring and updating but no joy... anyone has a solution to this? I would rather not use a cable.
Your AppleTV should not be looking for any wifi, It should be looking for your wifi. What kind of wifi router do you have and how far is it from your AppleTV?

Cannot configure AE with Comcast Internet/"Scientific Atlanta" Modem
I used to have ADSL overseas, now I cannot reconfigure my AE to set up my wireless network with my cable internet connection. I can connect to the internet with the ethernet cable just fine.
Comcast says it should be fine with automatic under DHCP setting. But they do not provide support for Airport.
Reading some of the suggestions on this forum, I tried to reset my AE to the factory setting and now my computer cannot detect the base station at all.
Any suggestions?AirPort Express Base Station Setup (AX) w/High-Speed Cable Modem
Modem/Router Power ReCycling
- Power-off the Cable modem, AX, & computer(s). (If possible, leave the modem off overnight.)
- Power-on the Cable modem; Wait at least 30 minutes.
- Power-on the AX; Wait at least 5 minutes.
- Power-on the computer(s)
Perform a "hard" reset of the AX
- (ref: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=108044)
Setup the AX
With the network components powered down, set up the AX, using the AirPort Admin Utility, connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, try these settings:
AirPort tab
- Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
- AirPort Network Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
- Create a closed network (unchecked)
- Wireless Security: Not enabled
- Channel: Automatic
- Mode: 802.11b/g Compatible
Internet tab
- Connect Using: Ethernet
- Configure: Using DHCP
- WAN Ethernet Port: Automatic
Network tab
- Distribute IP addresses (checked)
- Share a single IP address (using DHCP & NAT) (enabled)
Once you verified that you can get Internet access for all of your computers, you should secure your wireless network. To do so, I suggest that you make these changes:
AirPort tab (optional)
- Create a closed network (checked)
Change Wireless Security
- Wireless Security: WPA Personal or WPA2 Personal
- Encryption Type: WPA and WPA2
Base Station Options - WAN Ethernet Port
- Enable Ethernet Port (checked)
- Enable SNMP Access (unchecked)
- Enable Remote Configuration (unchecked)
- Enable Remote Printer Access (unchecked)
Wireless Options
- Transmitter Power: 10%
Access Control tab (optional)
- + <add the computer(s) that will access this wireless network> -
Airport Express: can't connect to internet via adsl modem
I have an old Airport Express which has worked fine in the past and a new ADSL internet account which works fine when I connect to it via PPoE Built-in-Ethernet. But despite following all the instructions in the Airport Setup Assistant I can't get Airport to work with the new modem (it works fine for AirTunes though). The thing is I don't really get how it could work with the new modem seeing as the Airport Setup Assistant doesn't ask me at any point what the username or password is for the new account.
I guess I'm missing something obvious here. Does anyone have any ideas what it is?Thanks again, I tried that but it didn't work either. Going back to basics, it might help if I tried to set out what I'm trying to take in a bit more detail:
1. Having just moved house I have a new ADSL line and modem installed by the phone company and a new ISP that has provided me with a username and a password. Using those I have no trouble getting internet via an ethernet cable connecting my iBook and the Modem.
2. I plug the ethernet cable into my AX and then plug the AX into the wall.
3. Then I follow the AX set up assistant guide for setting up a new base station.
4. I click the box for DSL or Cable Modem. I don't click the box for Router
5. This is the step I'm most unsure about. Because it is the default option I click the box for DSL or Cable modem ... or over Ethernet with an IP address assigned automatically using DHCP." I do not tick "I do not use DHCP". But I don't really know what that means.
6. AX tells me that it is configured as follows: TCP/IP: using DHCP and IP Address: Provided automatically.
7. When I open Safari it tells me that I'm not connected to the internet. Clicking the network diagnistics box gives me green lights for everything up to and including ISP but not for the internet.
Someone here mentioned that I might have to reconfigure my modem as a router. Is there anything to that?
Thanks again for your help. -
As a Verizon FIOS client, can we just use Ethernet cable to connect to time capsule or do we need the Verizon router to connect to time capsule?
The Time Capsule is indeed a wireless router with simultaneous dual band capability...and a hard drive for backup purposes. You can use that to your advantage if you configure the Time Capsule as I suggested in Bridge Mode.
The Time Capsule will provide a 802.11n 5 GHz band and a 802.11n/g/b compatible 2.4 GHz band to allow virtually any device to connect to the network.
I suppose that you could also use the "g" wireless network provided by the Verizon router as a "guest" network or something similar if you really do need another wireless network.
It might be possible to configure the Time Capsule as the main router on the network....that's a question for Verizon. But even if you might be able to do this, I'm sure it is not supported by Verizon, so you would be on your own in the event of any Internet connection difficulties on your service.
And, since the Time Capsule does not have a built in modem....you would still need to add a separate modem to the installation anyway.
That's why my suggestion is to use the Verizon device as the "modem" and let the Time Capsule provide the dual band wireless network and of course, handle the Time Machine backups.
