Network active, unable 2 establish a connection to internet, email, servers
For the last few months, I've had connection issues with my Mac Pro at work. Tech support (pc guys) have been unable to figure out the issue and attribute it to the network.
The ethernet connection is active and it sometimes works. The connections to our shared drive works most of the time. The email (via microsoft exchange server) works 50/50 and the internet browsers have the sketchiest connectivity.
A PC laptop connected to the same port has no issues. Other MAC users in this building are having the same issues but rely on the wireless connection when their ethernet is interrupted. I don't have an airport card on mine.
Other MACs on campus do not have any connectivity issues.
Please help!
It might not be DNS...
My MacPro has recently in the last several months just had period stoppages of Ethernet1.
I've been hassling with network stuff on my internet connection but twice today my MacPro just stopped talking. I can ping somethings but not others and Safari refuses to connect to anything. Email doesn't work etc.
The only thing I can sort of attribute it to and I might try is is that I have both a secure and unsecure network. My virus barrier stuff refused to work through my firewall so I setup the unsecure network on Ethernet2. Since doing that it is sort of like it just gets confused.
If I reboot the MacPro everything comes back alive just fine and when it is stopped if I switch over to my son's MacMini it is fine so I know its not my network or cable modem.
So I don't know if you have both ethernet connections plugged in, in your MacPro but I do and I'm going to try moving the unsecure one to see if the problem gets better.
When the problem happens its very difficult to fix. Only a reboot seems to cure it. I've disabled the Ethernet1 and reenabled it, unplugged, replugged the cable, etc... It just seems to totally die.
Hopefully disconnecting Ethernet2 will do the trick.

TouchSmart 600 unable to connect to Internet & email accounts. Receive Windows Network Diagnostics error message "An unexpected error has occurred.

I have the same problem connecting to the Internet that it is. It is more intermittent than permanent though. I have updated the driver from HP site, but no change. From the searches on the web problem seems more widespread though. HP do something! Please!

Trouble with connecting to my email servers
Hi,
I just bought my Macbook in March and it's great
But, all of the sudden, my Mail program has been acting up. It won't connect to my email servers on the first try. After about 5 or 6 tries, it will connect.
I get the triangle with the exclamation mark symbol, and when I click that, I get this message:
It isn't my email server, I don't think, because it checks perfectly fine in Outlook on my Windows PC.
It has also worked fine until today.
Thanks in advance for any help!
13" Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.9) 2 GHZ Core 2 Duo, 2 GB RAM, 80 GB HDAny difference when deselecting "Use SSL" to turn it off for the incoming mail server which is available under the Advanced tab for the account preferences?

I connect on the wi-fi network but i can't connect in internet
i connect on the wi-fi network but i can't connect in internet
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

Try unplugging your WiFi router for a few seconds. Then reset the iPad network. Go to Settings-General-Reset-Reset Network Settings. You will need to reconnect to the WiFi.

Versamail issue - unable to connect to sbcglobal email servers
I am attempting to access my sbcglobal email account. I believe I have everything set up correctly, but I continue to receive the following error message: "There is a delay in server communication causing a timeout. Please try again." It appears that I am connecting to the mail server successfully, but I don't get any farther than that. Does anyone know what I may be doing wrong?
Post relates to: Palm TXI recall SBC/Yahoo DSL recently changed the port settings for their email servers. Check the website and make sure you have the correct ones set in VersaMail.

Unable to be connected to Internet automatically
I don't know why my device can not be connected to the Internet automatically even with a know wireless connection after my device turned on. This happened only when I turned on my iPod.
Is your SSID hidden? Oft times the touch will forget your network if you hide/don't broadcast your network name. You can try resetting your touch network settings and then logging onto your network using Settings > WiFi > Other and re-entering everything.

I am moving my Mac-Pro (late 2013) to a garden office. I have an ethernet cable to connect it to the house network. I also have a Mac Book Air which will only connect to a network by WiFi. I can use this Mac-Pro to create a WiFi network and the MacBook can talk to the Mac Pro over this WiFi network. But the Mac Book does not see the local network let alone the Internet, both of which are seen on the Mac Pro.
Is there a way that I can connect the created WiFi network to one of the two Ethernet cards in the Mac Pro?
Or what?
TimI have half cracked it.
For some reason the first step it to turn internet sharing off.
Then internet sharing can be configured and the wireless network set up and given a password.
Then, and then only, turn internet sharing back on and turn WiFi ON. All this is on the Mac-Pro (late 2013).
Now the Mac Air sees the new network and can log on and connect to the WAN internet locations, at least via Safari.
BUT if I use Finder on the Air, it will connect to the Mac Pro but it will not display what is on its disc. Though I can do screen sharing. Odd.
Also Air-Drop has stopped working, so there is no means of transferring files between the Pro and the Air.
I am going away now for a few days and will revisit this on my return.
Thanks for your help. -
Macbook Air connects to network fine but will not connect to internet?
I am staying with someone away from home and cannot use my Macbook Air (OSX 10.9.4) with the internet. They have a Comcast network and all other devices including my iPhone, connect with no problems. I have connected to the network and it works initially (loading a web page or retrieving email) but almost immediately the internet stops working and pages freeze trying to load. The wifi shows no problems but internet connection is not working for both email and safari
I have cleared the network info and set up again, reset the router, restarted my computer and other trouble shooting. I have been able to connect to the same network by tethering my phone as well but cannot use the network directly.
Everything indicates that there the network connection is fine but but no internet, please help!Connect to the problem network. Double-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
www.google.com
Launch the Network Utility application.
Step 1
Select the Lookup tab and paste into the address field by pressing command-V. Then press return. Post the output that appears below – the text, please, not a screenshot.
Step 2
Select the Ping tab and do the same. Please enter the same input as you did in Step 1. Don't use the output of Step 1 as input to Step 2.
Important Note
Some web browsers and mail clients will automatically convert a domain name such as "www.example.com" to a clickable URL, such as http://www.example.com. That will interfere with the test. If necessary, edit the input in the Network Utility window to remove any added characters. -
I can connect to a network but I can't connect to internet...
Hi! I have a rarely problem:
When I try to connect to a wireless network I can and it shows that I have a high signal on the menu But I can't connect to the internet or it runs very slow... The macbook says that I'm connectet to the internet :S. I try to connect from windows XP with bootcamp at the same network and it runs very fast... What's the problem?? Thanks!
SergiYes, this is possible ... but understand that you would need two switch wireless networks between network/Internet access and for printing.
The AirPort would not get a Public IP address, but it would have a Private IP address of 10.0.1.1 ... and it would be providing wireless clients connected to it with Private IP addresses in the 10.0.1.2 - 10.0.1.200 range.
AirPort Utility > Select the AirPort > Manual Setup > AirPort > Wireless
Wireless Mode: Create a wireless network
Wireless Network Name: <enter a desired Network Name or SSID>
Radio Mode: <leave the default or select a desired radio mode>
Channel: Automatic
Wireless Security: <select the desired wireless security type>
Internet > Internet Connection
Connect Using: Ethernet
Connection Sharing: Distribute a range of IP addresses
Internet > TCP/IP
Configure IPv4: Manually
IP Address: 10.0.1.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Router Address: 10.0.1.1
DNS Server(s): <leave blank>
Domain Name: <leave blank>
Internet > DHCP
DHCP Beginning Address: <leave default or change to a desired starting address>
DHCP Ending Address: <leave default or change to a desired ending address>
Advanced > Logging & Statistics
Allow SNMP (unchecked)
The AirPort will still report at least three errors: 1) Configuration of WAN, 2) SNMP over WAN, and 3) Double NAT. These can all be safely ignored to stop the AirPort's status light from flashing amber in this configuration. -
EA6350 AC1200+ Unable to make connection with Internet
Hi! Just wanted to ask if you could help with this issue I just bought the EA6350 AC1200+ Wifi Router. I tried to set up the router in the same manner, step by step as the instructions tell me to and the Wifi is still telling me that it doesnt detect any internet connection.Whenever i login to the Smart Wifi Menu, the screen tells me that there is a connection between the computer and the router, but no connection with the internet. I have tried to check if its my internet's fault, by just simply connecting the cable to my laptop and the internet works just fine. My internet connection via LAN cable doenst require any login/password. Please let me know if anyone can help! Thank you so much! nting007
@nting007 Reset the router to factory defaults. Press and hold the reset button on the back panel of your router for about 10 seconds then release. Once accomplished, follow the steps on this link.

3G network problems in DC: cannot connect to internet, but works with EDGE
I can load web pages fine when I turn off 3G in the settings tab (and use only EDGE), but when I turn on 3G I need to "reload" the page several times before it will load.
This is really annoying because it is clearly a AT&T 3G network problem. After spending about an hour on the phone troubleshooting the problem with Apple-iphone and ATT "customer support", they concluded that although I was having a problem, because ATT does not show a current issue in the Washington, DC area, there is nothing they can do.
Argh! ATT and Apple need to work things out to fix the network problems, I hate being caught in the middle of their animus relationship.
I guess I will have to continue paying for a service that is spotty, because as the ATT representative pointed out, they do not guarantee any service and will not recompense for any alleged outage.
Wow, now that is a prime example of why having no effective competition in cellular providers means the customer loses.I appears to me that the problem is not related to whether you are on the phone or not. Generally, it seems like there is a problem with the 3G network being EXTREMELY slow and non-responsive. When I press the reload button several times, sometimes is loads very quickly as I would expect on 3G.
Still having this problem today. -
Why is my phone unable to connect to the email servers since upgrading to 7.1?
I had no problems just prior to installing 7.1, but now I do. I've shut down and restarted my phone several times and the problem persists. Help!
So, here's the final outcome...it seems that the guest WiFi at my employer does not allow us to access gmail! (OK, this is an assumption but I decided to disconnect from the WiFi and was able to access gmail with no problem!). Thank you all for your suggestions!

How does Pulse Params Vi determine pulse width
