IPad 2 and iPhone 4 - can't get an internet connection while tethered

I have an iPad 2 and an iPhone 4. Been using the iPhone to tether my iPad for a few weeks and all of a sudden when it's tethered I can't get an internet connection. Both iPhone and iPad are updated with latest software.

Hello Emma I presume your in the UK.
In the UK PPPoA is the standard PPPoE is not supported by many ISP's.
On your Mac just use DHCP in your Network settings. Do not use PPPoE.
Then login to your router's web configuration page. http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1. Admin and Password are the usual login details for netgear routers.
use the following details
PPPoA
VC-Mux
Chap authentication
vpi and vci are 38,0
and of course use your isp username and password.
Post edited. I just noticed you had already figured out the correct details.

Unable to get an internet connection while tethered

I've updated my phone to 3.1, I've tried in Win7 and XP. I've removed the bluetooth memory of the iphone from the PC and vice versa multiple times, rebooted both, uninstalled the bluetooth drivers and reinstalled. No matter what I do, DHCP fails to assign a proper IP address and gateway.
It worked fine up until a few days ago, then it just stopped. This happens both over USB and Bluetooth

This is all just a partial answer since details will depend upon how you want to do it.

Commercial software utility for transferring songs from i-device to Mac - http://www.fadingred.com/senuti/

You'll need to get it all onto one iTunes collection on your Mac Pro, then sync the devices to that. iTunes only lets you transfer purchases from a device, otherwise you have to use third party software.
I guess you could also look into getting iTunes Match.

Help! Upload 8.1 on my iPad 2 and now I can't get any wifi nor can I reset any settings. When I try to go on my iCloud it is all greyed out and no longer recognizes my password.

I also can't turn off "Find my iPad" on iTunes in order to do a restore.

Try a reset first. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears on the screen. It takes about 10 seconds. After the iPad restarts, see if you can get into your settings.

Updating firmware when I can't get an internet connection through the router

I am trying to update the firmware for WRT54G V8, but some of the instructions indicate I need to have the router connected and be connected to the internet. I cannot get an internet connection through the router. Can I upgrade firmware without being connected to the internet through the router. (I have had this router for about a year and a half with no problems until now.)

Yes, you can upgrade the firmware without an Internet connection.
To upgrade the firmware, first download the new firmware into a computer that you can wire to your router.
Next, power down your entire network.
Then wire the computer to a LAN port on the router.
Disconnect all other wires from the router.
Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
Power up your computer.
Login to the router, and do the firmware upgrade (it will likely take several minutes).
Power down your entire network.
Next you need to reset the router to factory defaults.
To reset your router to factory defaults, use the following procedure:
1) Power down all computers, the router, and the modem, and unplug them from the wall.
2) Disconnect all wires from the router.
3) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
4) Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds, then release it, then let the router reset and reboot (2-3 minutes).
5) Power down the router.
6) Connect one computer by wire to port 1 on the router (NOT to the internet port).
7) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
8) Power up the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it is off).
9) Try to ping the router. To do this, click the "Start" button > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. A black DOS box will appear. Enter the following: "ping 192.168.1.1" (no quotes), and hit the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that start either with "Reply from ... " or "Request timed out." If you see "Reply from ...", your computer has found your router.
10) Open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to your router's login page. Leave the user name blank, and in the password field, enter "admin" (with no quotes). This will take you to your router setup page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually listed near upper right corner of screen). Exit your browser.
If you get this far without problems, try the setup disk (or setup the router manually, if you prefer), and see if you can get your router setup and working.
If you cannot get "Reply from ..." in step 9 above, your router is likely dead. Report back with this problem
If you get a reply in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, then either your router is dead or the firmware is corrupt. Report back with this problem.
If you need additional help, please state your ISP, the make and model of your modem, your router's firmware version, and the results of steps 9 and 10. Also, if you get any error messages, copy them exactly and report back.
Please let me know how things turn out for you.

Can't get pass "Internet connection" on Setup wizard for new Linksys WRT54g router

Hello everyone.
Well, I just bought (today) a Linksys WRT54G wirelss router and wile going through the Setup portion of the wizard (part of the installation of the EasyLink Advisor application), after I connect all the cables (in proper order) it tries to establish an Internet connection but comes back saying that no Internet connection is present. I tried powering off and umplugging the Verizon Westell modem I have but it still says the same thing. I even tried to get the set up completed with two other verizon modems I have but just can't get pass checking for Internet connection.
My ISP is Verizon and I use just a regular DSL connection using a Westell VersaLink model 327W.
Is there anything I need to do to get this going? I mean, the set up CD shows how to hook up the cables and everything so it really is not that hard but right after the "hook up the cable" portion it check for an Internet connection and that's were I get stuck.
Any help will be appreciated.

Your problem is that the Westel "modem" is actually a "modem-router", and it uses the same 192.168.1.x address space as the WRT54G.
The ideal solution is to place the Westell into "bridge" mode. This will convert it to a true modem (all router features are turned off). I assume you are using PPPoE (if this is not correct, please let me know). If so, then you will need to setup the WRT54G to do your PPPoE login, when the Westell is set to bridge mode. Also note that you must first disconnect the Westell from the WRT54G and from the Internet, before you attempt to place the Westell into bridge mode.
An alternate solution is to leave the Westell as is, disconnect it from the WRT54G, then login to the WRT54G and change the "Local IP address" to 192.168.2.1 , then reconnect your system. In this case, the Westell will do your PPPoE login, and the WRT54G will be set to "Internet connection type" of "DHCP - automatic". If all you do is browse the web, do some emails, and basic stuff, this setup will probably work OK. If you are planning more complicated stuff (Internet gaming with port forwarding, video conferencing, etc.) then be sure to use the "bridge" mode described above.

Satellite A100 - Can't get a Internet connection

Hi,
I have a Satellite A100 and I am having trouble establishing a internet connection after having my reg/cleaned by uniblue, and for the love of me cant get a connection.
I mange to get my hub connected to internet but my laptop just wont allow connection it's an MCE and it works perfectly well. I have had so many differing answers all to do with differing addresses, it all ways says another vendor has control or an error 678. It does seem like it's an access issue between my IP provider and my system provider not communicating through IT PROTOCOL and my system XP PROFESSIONAL.
Can anyone help please?

Hi
To be honest your posting is a little bit hard to understand and doesnt contain all important informations.
Can you connect to Internet via WLAN or LAN?
What happens now exactly if you try to make an Internet connection?
Can your router connect to Internet? What is the status there?
If you have some problems with your internet provider you have to contact them directly. They can check your connection and make sure that you are using the right login informations.

Changed my apple ID, works ok on pc and iphone but can't get old or ID to work Ipad2

changed my apple ID because email add no longer valid, new ID works on pc and iphone, but the new or old ID will work on my Ipad 2

I too had the same problem. Try:
1. Resetting the ipad by holding the sleep button and the home button simultaneously till the apple logo appears. And then try setting up facetime.
2. Setting the facetime through the facetime option in Settings.
Hope this helps. And its better not to sell the ipad 2. Its a brilliant device. Rather wait for the fifth generation ipad which might be launched in 2013.

Can't get an internet connection or date connection on my brand new Razr m

Just bought a Droid Razr M today, can't get a connection for internet or date, anyone?

Hi there Jrzyrdneck23,
It's super important to have data connection and the date on any smartphone! I'm so sorry you've run into this difficulty.
I would recommend powering the device off and removing/reinsterting the sim card. This will attempt a reactivation of the sim.
You should also be sure the phone and sim card are activated on the correct phone number and that you're in direct Verizon Wireless coverage.
If you have any other questions please don't hesitate to let us know!
Thanks,

Can´t get my Internet connection to work

I´m trying to connect through AOL on a MacBook using an ethernet broadband connection.
Unfortunately my AOL Connect software doesn´t detect my broadband modem. The modem and the ethernet cabel both work fine when connected to my desktop pc.
I´ve been playing around with the network preferences all day now and I´m starting to get a little frustrated.
Is there something I´m missing or could it be a hardware problem ?
Has anyone else had this problem ?

What are your Network settings? Port Configuration order?
