Linksys WRT54G Ver.6 not connecting (but internet is working through modem)?

I have the following router and the internet is not working through it though its working when I connect my Mac directly to the ISP's modem.
I did update the router to the latest firmware, I have had this router for the past 4 years. My friends other computer which is a vista and my iPhone is not able to get the Internet either. But it's connecting to the network with strong signal
status I'm able to see the ip adress,subnet mask etc
please help

As you upgraded the router's firmware,Reset the router and try to re-configure it from scratch.
If your Internet Service Provider is Cable follow this link to configure the router.
If your Internet Service Provider is DSL follow this link configure the router.

ITunes will not connect but Internet does

iTunes will not connect or load no matter how long I wait but the Internet will, so I know it's not a wi-fi issue. Is the server down?

You could try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores if the iPad is on iOS 6) and then logging back in and see if that makes any difference.
If it doesn't fix it then you could try disconnecting from your network and reconnecting to it, and/or a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Firefox was working fine on myWindows Vista. The internet was down. When sevice returned. Firefox would not connect. Internet Explorer works. E-mail works. Television signal works. It is enable on the fire wall. However, Firefox won't connect.

The internet is working. I downloaded Firefox again. It will not connect.

I have unistalled, and reinstalled Firefox three times. I have unplugged the modem, rebooted the computer, made an exception in the firewall, can get e-mail and use other browsers. There is some button I'm not pushing somewhere. Can't anyone working at Firefox answer this question? I'm ready to give it up all together. Thanks.

Firefox won't work, every website has an error like the internet isn't connected but internet explorer works fine, how do I fix it?

This is the message I get for EVERY website I have tried: Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at support.mozilla.com. I have checked the firewall and didn't notice any problems but I might not know what to look for. I have uninstalled and re-installed the program and still have the problem, I have also tried on different wireless internet signals and restarting my computer. I am using windows 7.

No problems here with that visited counter on your website.
Which extensions did you install?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

IPod touch wifi connects but internet doesnt work

I have a wireless router that I connect to but when I attempt to get to the internet or app store, it says "cannot connect: invalid argument"
What should I do?

When you think you are connected (a checkmark appears next to your network name), tap the blue > next to your network name. Do you have a device IP address, subnet mask, router IP, and DNS IP addresses visible? I think you are probably see just an IP address that starts with 169.x and an incomplete subnet mask.
If this is what you are seeing, the 169.x IP address is a self-assigned (and non-functional) IP address. You are logged onto your network but your router is not issuing your touch an IP address.
A few of things you can do (and you can check after each step):
1. Restart/reboot your router (just remove the power, wait a few, and plug it back in)
2. Reset your network settings on the touch - tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. After your touch restarts, log back into your network by tapping Settings > WiFi > Other and re-entering your network name, security, and password.
3. If you are using WEP, either change to WPA2-psk or use your hex key in place of a password
4. Check to see if your router is using the latest firmware. If it isn't, download and install the latest.

Have wifi signal, logged in but not connected to internet.

Will not connect to internet. Worked fine last weekend at home and traveling. No internet connection this week at a different home location.

Probably your router is not assigning your iPad a valid LAN IP address. You can check this in the network details accessed by touching the ">" to the right of your network name in WiFi. If the IP address starts with 169 then you didn't get an IP address from your router.
Sometimes this problem can be solved by restarting your router by removing power. Also use Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings on your iPad. Also check to see that you have the latest firmware on your router.

AOL Broadband, will connect to laptop, but not connect to internet explorer. WRT54GS v.6

I can connect to my wireless network via my laptop, but not to internet explorer. We have changed every setting imaginable and re-set the modem, router many times. We Ip configed, did ping tests, installed and re-installed the card in the laptop. Done all this 4 times with the tech support from Linksys. Finally, I realized it must the wireless router and/or modem configuration. (The laptop works on every other network in town except ours, and has not security settings enabled).
I have been on customer service calls for 2 weeks, with AOL and linksys and nothing seems to be helping me. I have 2 wireless routers (thought the first was bad, so bought another brand new), and just had a brand new modem installed. Basically, I have brand new equipment.
The laptop has no security settings and connect to any wireless network in town. It finds the connection to my WRT54GS v.6, but will not connect via internet explorer.
I want to uninstall and re-install the router. How do I uninstall the router? (I have instruction for re-installation). Also AOL rep told me, to make sure I configure the router to a certain port range. Any ideas as to how to do this?
Anyone have problems with AOL high speed and linksys router? Has the high speed cable cord coming out of the wall, not ethernet or DSL.
We have changed the settings in http://192.168.1.1 till I am blue in the face. None of the channels worked, security didn't work, adding the ip address manually to the laptop didn't work. I am getting no error messages. Am trying to get this wireless modem working because I need it. Should have come to this forum first!

hi..if you want to uninstall the router...the only thing you need to do is hold the reset button down for 30 seconds...
i m a bit confused here as to why the ISP techs asked you to forward ports on the router...port forwarding is needed for a specific application or a device that is behind the router....
the mentioned ports are for AOL messenger ( AIM )....and has nothing to do with the modem...anyways , let us work out together on this issue...carry out the steps i mention and you can revert back with the results and your success rate...
1) connect the computer to the modem and check what ip address you have on the computer ??
2) go to start -> control panel -> network connections ->
let me know what other icons you have besides Local Area Connection and Wireless Network Connection..
3)connect the computer to the router and the router to the modem...
access the router using http://192.168.1.1 .. let the internet connection type be on DHCP....check the ip address on the status page of the router ui...
4) if it is 0.0.0.0 , go to setup tab and go to mac address clone subtab , enable it and hit clone..save the settings and do a power cycle...
5) check whether you have the ip address...if you have the same ip as coming off of the modem..u should be online and if still 0.0.0.0 , then select PPPoE for the internet connection type and enter the username and password...check whether the ip address comes up....if still negative, ensure that the modem is in bridge mode...
6)if the ip address comes up as 192.168.1.x , change the local ip add of the router to 192.168.2.1 and do a power cycle..
let me know for any help !!!

Wireless network monitor says I'm not connected to internet, but I am?

Hi,
I have a WRT54G v6 and a WUSB54GC. I can connect to the inter just fine and for the most part the linksys wireless network monitor says I'm connected to the access point and internet. The problem is occasionally it will says that I'm connected to the access point but the internet when I really am and I can browse the web just fine. I get the not connected to internet msg for a few minutes then it just goes back to connected. Any ideas?

Hi...
I think here the issue may be that the utility and the internet connection are not getting synchronised. The operating system on your computer is it win XP? If it is win xp, u can use the windows wireless software to manage to your wireless network. In order to use the windows wireless zero configuration, right click on the linksys icon at the bottom right hand corner of the task bar, select the option that says "use windows wireless ....".
The linksys icon will be grayed and windows will be managing the wireless network. Connect to your wireless network and you should be able to go online.

My IPOD and Macbook Pro both will not connect to the Itunes store through Itunes says no internet connection, but I can connect through safari and I have a internet connection

As I mentioned above, I am not very tech savvy so I have no idea why a wireless protocol would be showing up there, I'm just listing everything I see in hopes that someone might know something I can try. This is why I am asking for help here - I'm not sure what has happened that has made me unable to connect, especially since it seemingly occured while nobody was using the computer.
I guess I should clarify that I'm not a total hillbilly- normally my firewall is set to 'on', but I set it to 'off' to try and troubleshoot the issues here as I was told that sometimes it can interfere with the computer's ability to connect to the internet. If this is not the case and firewall does not affect anything, I will turn it back on while I try to fix this.
I have tried the method you mentioned above a few times - I actually contacted my ISP earlier this week and they recommended resetting the router like that. They didn't mention any known network issues.

Intermittently iphone 6 and 6 plus is wifi connected but internet does not work.

Hi,
I have an issue where intermittently iphone 6 and 6 plus is wifi connected but internet does not work. iMessage works though. Toggling the wifi setting clears
the issue temporarily but it occurs again. Running iOS 8.3 now. This was the case on iOS 8.1 and 8.2 as well.
I have tried the typical troubleshooting steps (reboot/reset network settings/disabling location services for wifi/upgrade/etc)
My router is an EA9200 router with 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz. It is configured with all bands with the same name.
All other devices in my house works perfectly fine and has no disconnects (ipad/macbook air/tv's/receivers)
My thought is that iphone 6 cannot handle well the moving around between bands.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
David

Have you tried to reboot your router by turning off the power (you may have to unplug it from the power source), then waiting about 30 seconds, then turning it back on? This seems to solve a lot of problems.

I have a new ipad2, also an ipad1, with a gateway laptop. I have wireless router with windstream. Able to access my wireless connection on ipad1 and laptop, but can't on ipad2. Will say connected, but get message saying not connected to internet on Safari

I got an ipad 2 today. Already have an ipad 1 and gateway laptop. Have wireless internet with windstream. I have internet connection on ipad 1 and laptop, but can't connect to internet on ipad2. It says i'm connected, but when accessing Safari, it says not connected to internet. Tried unplugging router and resetting already, still not working. Thanks for the help.

Thank you for your response.
I did try turning off the firewall, and reducing all the security levels to a minimum (under Control Panel>Internet Options). Also, I'm using a direct cable from my m/c to the Airport Extreme. But nothing helps. Due to the usage pattern in my family, using the MacBook for configuring the network is not optimal, hence my struggle to do it on my Windows desktop. But if that is the only way to go I suppose I'll have to.
Subsequent to posting my query, I discovered that Apple had not singled me out, and many others with a Win OS face this problem, too. I would have thought Apple would do a proper job of testing before putting up the Windows version of Airport Utlity on their site.
But thanks again. Much appreciate it.

Safari5.1.8 drops off line, but airport stays connected, but window says you are not connected to internet?

Hello Rachet Jaw,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with iTunes. I found a few articles I suggest for the issue you described.
If you are getting a white screen when accessing the iTunes Store, I recommend reviewing this article:
