My labtop is conncted wirelessly through my router but the internet wont open

My labtop is conncted wirelessly through my router but the internet wont open iv been trouble shooting it and it tells me something about th primary dns or something yet i have another computer which i connected to the same network and it has no problems and goes to the internet fine

First of all when you computer shows you that you are connected to your Wireless Network, first thing which you need to check, whats the IP address you are getting it on your Computer. Click on Start - Run - CMD and click Ok and in the Command Prompt type "ipconfig" and hit enter and check the IP address. It should be in your Router Range i.e (192.168.1.xxx) if not might be your computer is having static Ip, thats the reason you are not able to go online. So you need to remove the Static IP from your computer.
Click on the Start button >>> Settings >>> Control Panel >>>Network Connections- Right click on the icon for Local area connection and go to properties- On the 'General' tab select 'Internet Protocol TCP/IP' and click on the properties button- If its set to 'Use the following IP address' then you need to change it to "Obtain and IP address Automaticaly" and click Ok and Close.
Now check if you are Online.

Can I use an hp b209 and an hp4500 wirelessly through a router on the same network

I have two HP printers that I would like to use wirelessly through a router. When I have tried to set both of them up, one or the other is not recognized. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing, and nothing seems to work.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

OK, good. Uninstall all HP software from Start > All Programs > Hewlett-Packard. Then restart your PC.
Now, get the latest software for the 4500 from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page and install it. Restart your PC.
Finally, from the same link on this page get the latest software for the b209 and install it.

My Macbook Pro doesnt seem to connect to my Belkin wireless router. It is connected but the internet would not work. any suggestions?

hey guys. I am having trouble with my internet. My MacBook Pro seems to be connected with Belkin wireless router, but the internet would not work. We recently changed the router so its pretty new, and it used to work on my HP laptop. Although there were some problems, it still worked. But now, the internet works and stops suddenly, and then works again.
I would love to hear some suggestions to get rid of this.
Thanks
Kiran

If you have not already done so, read the troubleshooting section in Belkin's user manual, contact their customer tech support by phone or go to its website. Please detail all you have done to resolve your issue. Need this information so that the users can avoid the "been there, done that" scenario type responses. This is to avoid repeating the troubleshooting you may have already tried. Thank you.

Hi there can anyone help me out. I have Apple TV and I am trying to connect wirelessly through a zyxel wireless hotspot gateway, I know a tad extreme but a friend had one free, anyway I can find the router but no Internet connection?

The only people who can possibly assist you with this is Apple Customer Relations, call your local Apple contact number and ask for Customer Relations then explain your situation clearly and politely (be firm but don't rant).
You might want to investiage what the local laws are regarding defective goods and 'fit for use' definitions on warranties etc. Consumer Protection can be a useful tool to use or bargain with if needed ...

Connect to router but not internet

I recently got a WRT54G Wireless router and easily configured it to run on my Mac but when I try to set it up for my PC it will ping the router but nothing on the internet. Can anyone help me figure out how to setup the corrrect connection on a Xindows XP. My service provider gave me no password or login name to get on the internet.

I've got the same problem. The Linksys Wireless Monitor says that it's connected to the access point, but the internet can not be found. It sometimes indicates that it's connected to the internet for a moment or two, then loses it. We have 3 computers and this problem is only happening with one of them. The computer in question just started having this problem. It previously worked fine.
Despite indicating that it's connected to the access point, I can not connect to the router's admin interface.
I tried safe mode with networking, but still wasn't able to connect.
Any more ideas?
Thanks in advance.

BEFW11S4 v4 - wired devices work, wireless devices cannot connect to the Internet

Greetings,
I have a Linksys BEFW11S4 Wireless, ver 4. I have a PC connected directly to one of the Ethernet ports, and have no problem with that connection. I have a DSL service from Verizon. All devices are running Windows XP.
My wireless Laptop, as well as other desktop with wireless USB adapter cannot access the Internet. It seems that I have a wireless connection between the router and these devices since my Laptop can see the SSID and the wireless network and connect to it. But when I try to launch IE explorer or use AOL, I am not successful.
The frustrating part is that the wireless laptop used to work just few days ago and I haven't changed any set-up or added any hardware. I have tried to re-install the router, and also did few resets...but nothing is working.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Elie

Elie,
From one of the wireless computer, wither desktop or laptop, try this to help isolate the issue:
fo to Start>run> type "cmd" then click enter
that would open MS DOS, type: Ping (your router IP address)
For Example, if the router IP address is 192.168.1.1, then type:
ping 192.168.1.1 then click enter
if it does not come back with a time out, then you your PC is connected to the router. If it did time out, then it is the wireless connection.
If so, check the wireless configuration on the router, as of SSID, security if any , etc.. and make sure that the wireless card in each desktop and laptop match those settings. Be aware that SSID is "case sensitive" so it has to match exactly the one in the router.
hope that will help you in troubleshooting the issue

Hello AlexCornejo,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

I have a Airport Extreme that is dropping the wireless signal alot (several times a day). The green light will go amber but the internet service (ethernet cable) will still be fine. The wireless icon on devices with go away.

I have a Airport Extreme that is dropping the wireless signal alot (several times a day) The green light will go amber, but the internet service is still ok if your using an ethernet cable directly plugged in. When the light goes amber all devices that is using wireless will lose there wireless icon. The only way to get the green light back is to unplug the Airport device and replug it back in. I tried the reset on the back but still no luck. What is the fix?

Let's see if I can get this straight.
You have an Airport Extreme base station that is set to "Create a wireless network" and you have the box checked for "allow this network to be extended"....
Then you have an Airport Express that is set to "Extend a wireless network" which you selected the name of your network in the box...
Correct?
See this Apple document:

The wireless unit on the right of the diagram can be either of the newer Apple base stations.
Extreme, Express, Time Capsule

The trial version of Acrobat Pro is already on my computer; purchased it today; instructions say access through cloud.acrobat but the system keeps telling me to download. I just want to work. Do I really need to download again?

Hi lynnb,
If you already have Acrobat installed, there's no need to download it again. When you launch Acrobat, you should be given an option to "License this Software." Click that option, and then log in with your Adobe ID and password, and you should be all set!
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,

We have had to change to a new router but the Macbook Pro still reverts to the old router. How can this new one be made the default?

Go to "Network" under system preferences and choose "advanced"
On the Wi-Fi tab you can sort the sequence of the preferred connections.
Then just move your new router to the top of the list.

Your install disk must look like this

Those gray disks are machine specific and will only work with model of Mac that they shipped with.

Can connect to wireless network run off dell router, but not internet!

I have a iBookG4 and have moved to a new apt with a wireless network run off a dell router/ comcast. My roommates have both Macs and PCs and can connect with no problems. I found the network on my airport and put in the password, joined network no problem, but cannot connect to the internet. The Airport status is yellow and says that Airport has self assigned IP address and cannot connect to the internet. I can connect fine to other open networks in the area so its not my computer. I tried to copy the IP address from my roommate manually to the network settings but that didn't work either. What am I doing wrong? No one here seems to recall how they set up the network and I am paying for a network I can't access. Please help!!!

Does the dell router have an access list set-up?
With an access list (depending on the router) it can be set-up to allow access for only certain MAC addresses. If your MAC address isn't in the list, you'll not get on.
Usually the router will have an IP address itself of 192.168.2.1 or 192.168.0.1 - depends on the router. You should be able to determine it from the IP address your computers are getting. Try getting someone to connect to this through a browser, and check/change the configuration of the router directly.

My C5280 will print through my router but solution center won't go online and work

I have just hooked up my C5280 to a dlink dir-655 router via usb cable now I can get it to print fine just when I open the solution center to scan it says the printer is offline. any ides how to fix this? I am using windows XP.
RWE

After you connected this product via USB to your router, technically what the router will do from that point is forward the print jobs through wireless or Ethernet from your router to the printer over the attached USB cable. But, the connection is not direct. HP Solution Center will not see the printer as being online because it is looking for a direct USB connection, which is the only connection available for this particular printer.
Hope this helps!
