Network connection ok, no internet...

I had a WDS with an AExtreme as main and two AExpress as relay and remote WEP encryption all working OK... Now I got a Time Capsule so I reset the whole network: TC as main, AExtreme as relay and AExpress as remote, WPA: it worked perfect for one day and then I couldn't connect to the internet with my laptop in my bedroom where the remote is -I could connect to the network though.
So I hard reseted all the devices and after a couple of days fighting with them -they would dissapeared in the Airport Utility or wouldn't restart...- I set the network again but now not as a WDS but as extended network, WPA (TC wouldn't allow WEP).
Again, worked fine for one day and now I can access the network and have internet connection BUT my husband has no intertnet connection in his MacBook Air and he's in the same room as I am...
I give up... I don't know what to do...
I appreciate any help...

I'm sorry. Apparently someone had changed the proxy settings in my husband's notebook... Now it works.
Thanks anyway.

Hi，
So switch a LAN card fix this issue...seems a compatibility issue or maybe some packs or programs you installed recently cause this issue.
Have you manually check the network adapter driver from the PC's manufacture website? sometimes, it will be a time delay before Microsoft push out the driver update.
Check if issue exists in safemode with network, this mode will launch Windows with limited sets of files and drivers.
if you have a restore point, restore the pc to a previous point at which the pc is functioning fine.

Have network connection, but no internet connection

My son has a Macbook that he can use to connect wirelessly at school, friends and even to our neighbors wireless connection no problem. We purchased a Linksys WRT54G so that he could connect at home. He has a network connection with a full signal, but when he tries Safari he gets a message that he has no internet connection. I've checked the settings suggested in other places in the forum, and they are ok. I'm afraid to mess around too much (even if I knew what to do) because I don't want to ruin his ability to connect at school. I am not very computer literate and this is our first Mac, so any help would be very much appreciated.
The router is WEP enabled. I have entered the key with a $ in front and it is being accepted, but even if I disable WEP, I can't get an internet connection.
In system preferences - Network
Airport is set by default to join: Automatic
TCP/IP is set as follows - Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
IPv6 Configure: Automatically
Does anyone have any other ideas?
Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.6)

cmdmom, Welcome to the discussion area!
Create a new location following the directions in KB 106653, Using network locations in Mac OS X. Then he can easily switch between the current (school) settings and settings for the home network.
After the new network is created and selected, ensure that there is no proxy defined and ensure that the DNS fields are blank in the Network preference pane.

Network connection OK but Internet connection lost on laptop

I successfully installed 10.6 on my desktop first. Although I was connected to the network, I had no Internet connection. I fiddled around and did something that fixed the problem (not sure what). Then I installed on my laptop (family pack) and had the same problem: network connection OK, Internet connection not OK. Fiddled some more, but no joy. I've spent hours trying to get to the bottom of this, to no avail. Ran disk utility and network utility just for the heck of it. Anyone know what setting must have changed to knock off my lap top Internet connection? (I have Airport and WiFi through AT&T U-verse.)

In my case the DNS address is greyed out so I cannot select it. What worked for me - occasionally - is changing the Network location to 'Automatic'. I had it set on a custom setting. Unfortunately this is sporadic. It will start to display content then just stops. I can jump-start it by fiddling with location but not always. The Airport range seems to be reduced too but I think that is just the flakiness of the connection.

TS2755 i did the update for the ios7 and when i try to activate my imessage it says that it cant sign in to check my network connection. but my internet is working perfectly fine. anyone help ?

I keep trying to activate my imessage and it keeps saying that I cant. to check my network connection and try again. but my internet is working perfectly fine. can anyone help me with this ?

Have you tried restarting the phone? Hold both Home and Power buttons down until Apple logo appears and phone "reboots".
And have you tried resetting Network Settings?
Settings => General => Reset => Reset Network Settings
You will have to re-enter Wifi Passwords but it might help you get to a more solid connection on your phone.

Laptop joins network, connects to the internet but iPad/iPhone cannot access internet though on the network...

My laptop joins the network I created and connects to the internet via my Airport Extreme but for some reason my iPad and iPhone cannot access the internet even through they have joined the network. What's gone wrong?

Troubleshoot Internet Connection Problems at Microsoft.com
* http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Troubleshoot-Internet-connection-problems
You can also check the following:
* Your modem and/or router are both on and are not indicating errors. The problem may be with your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Contact your ISP for more information.
* If you are using a wireless connection, that you are using the correct access point.
* Your Domain Name System (DNS) server translates web addresses (URLs) into IP addresses and is usually provided by your ISP. If the DNS server is overloaded, you may be unable to view some or all websites. For example, if http://74.125.53.99 or http://74.125.159.105 work but http://www.google.com doesn't, you may have a DNS problem. You can use an alternative service such as OpenDNS (http://www.opendns.com/) or Google Public DNS (http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/).
* Whether your Internet security software (including firewalls, antivirus programs, anti-spyware programs, and more) is blocking connections to the Internet. For instructions on how to configure some programs, see the Firewalls article (https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firewalls).
Check and tell if its working.

Re: Network connection, but no internet connection

I have a MacBook Pro, 10.6.8. I am set up ith Airport Extreme, and everything has worked great. All of a sudden I have no internet. I open up Airport Utilities and there is no Airport to be seen. I gave the Airport a Hard Reboot ( 5 seconds on the button untill it blinks yellow) and it now shows up in the Airort Utility, though still orange. The Airport Utility can not find the Airport Extreme... though you can see it now.
At work I can access the Network fine, but I still can not access the internet.
I've re-installed Safari, but that is pointless as I can no access internet via Email, or any other web applications. It's for sure an issue where my computer can not access internet, regardless if I'm at home or at work. Why??
Network Diagnostics can not fix the problem, and I've even rebooted using AppleJack and no go. I hope I do not have to re-install the OS and everything?!
Any thoughts?

UPDATE: Connection to Network, but not Internet Fixed!
I have tried everything!
Reboot Airport Extreme, Hard reboot of Airport Extreme, reboot modem...
Reset Safari, re-install Safari, I deleted all Networks, and I changed the order of Nework items in the System Preferences>Network order so that Airport was at the top of the list...
I figured out I had ZERO Internet, e-mail, nothing, but WI-FI worked fine, connected to servers fine, iPhone connects to Internet fine, why will my MacBook Pro not connect to the Ineternet?!?!
Network Diagnostics was no help at all.
I deleted the System Configuration under the HD>Library>Preferences>System Configuration, and that did not help.
I retarted the computer holding down the Option and Command Key, and long with two other keys (I forget which two ) and that did nothing, so your not missing out on anything not knowing which two
Using another computer I downloaded "AppleJack", restarted using that program and it deleted the Cache, and basically wipes everything clean, and that did not work.
What did work? Insert the Snow Leopard Install CD, (No I have not gone to Lion yet, too sketchy yet) and holding down the Command and 'C' key I restarted the computer from the Snow Leopard Install CD, and simply re-installed the system. I had backed everything up first of course, but it was not nessesary as nothing seemed to have changed.
BUT THIS TIME SAFARI WORKED!!!! I was really starting to think I had a damaged Airport Card, or a hardware issue, but the system re-install worked great!!!
I sure hope this helps other people out with the same issue. Very Frustrating!!!!
Peace!

Airport Guest Network - Connects but no internet

I'm using and Airport Extreme Base Station (A1354), software version 7.6.4. The secure networks are fine and work perfectly to serve up an internet connection.
However, the guest network (which is currently set to no password) connects just fine but no internet is provided. I've tried everything I can click on to get it to work but nada. I've rebooted, naturally, as well as removed the guest network and created new ones with new names and passwords as well as no password versions.
Can anyone help?

The most common cause of Guest Network issues is trying to connect the AirPort Extreme to a modem/router or gateway type of device, when it needs to connect to a simple modem. A simple modem will always have only one Ethernet port.
Click on the Network tab and check the setting for Router Mode. If it is set to "Off (Bridge Mode)" you have the AirPort connected to a modem/router or gateway type of device that is both a modem and router in the same package.
The Guest Network cannot operate correctly in the "Off (Bridge Mode)" setting......but at the same time this is the correct setting for your AirPort Extreme to work with your modem/router or gateway device. Kind of a Catch 22.
If the Guest Network feature is important to you. ask your ISP if they can provide you with a simple modem.....not a modem/router or gateway. Or, ask your ISP if it is possible to reconfigure the modem/router to act as a only a modem. If it is, the Guest Network feature will work correctly once the device has been setup to operate only as a modem.

Why does my error message say "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again." for Facetime when I am connected to the internet?

Trying to access my Facetime and I haven't in a while. It is not allowing me to sign in. I am conneected to my Wi-Fi and am sitting right on top of it and it still says i need to check my network connection. My internet connection is fine and works with everything else but Facetime. What's up with that??

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings>General>Date&Time and make sure it is set to Automatic
- Go to Settings>wifi>the connected network and change the DNS to Google's 8.8.8.8
- Go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and sign out and sign back in

I have tried everything but iphoto won't export to snapfish. It says check network connection, but I am clearly connected to the internet, email and everything works. I have updated the software reset the PRAM, restarted a million times, please help me!

every time I try to export photos from mac mini iphoto to snapfish is says check network connection, but the internet is working great. I have updated everything i can think of please help.

Several people including myself are having the same issue and have contacted HP and Apple. Quite frankly, I'm surprised it's been an issue for so long being that photos uploaded to Snapfish = $$$. Lets hope they can work this one out, as of now, there apparently is no solution.

How on earth could I be connecting to the Internet through my airport express when it is not connected to anything?

I'm not entirely displeased with the situation but I cannot see how I could be connecting to the Internet through my airport express when the Airport is not connected to anything.
Weird huh?
I have a separate non- Airport wireless network connected to the Internet. I had previously set-up the Airport to link with this network but disconnected it (by resetting it) as music streaming was unlistenable due to frequent drop out. I now just have the Airport Express as a standalone wireless network only connecting to the stereo to stream music from devices.
My devices are only connected to the Airport network with cellular data off. Yet I can still connect to the Internet AND listen to streaming music (without drop-out no less).
I don't want to fix it but I would like to know how the frag it could happen so i don't screw it up accidentally.

I would say you still have something of the previous setup.
To be sure you don't mess up, save the configuration.. go to the top menu area of the airport utility and export configuration.. which will land on your computer.
Now you can recover at anytime to the current setup.
How it works.. that is magical ..
Open the airport utility.. edit.. and take a screenshot and post it of the following pages..
Internet wireless network
THen we can tell you how it is working.

I have a 4th generation Ipod Touch (I think) It shows that I am connected to my internet at home, but when I try to go to Safari, Itunes Store, App Store or Words with friends, I get a no internet error. Any suggestions???

I have tried to restart my ipod. Shutting it down completely and restarting it.
I have reset my network connections. My internet is working because I am able to get on here on my computer.
Help

Restore your iPod and see if it helps.

Sharing airport network connection to an airport base station over ethernet

Hi there,
I've got a network connection to the internet via Airport, on my iBook G4 with OS X 10.4.9.
This iBook is connected to the LAN port on an Airport Express base station (for physical wiring reasons, it cannot be connected to the WAN port).
This Airport Express has a dozen other computers attached to it.
Does anyone know how I might be able to share my internet connection, via the LAN side of the Airport Express, to all these other computers?
Incidentally, when I turn on both the Ethernet LAN connection and the Airport internet connection, I stop being able to communicate over the internet connection. When I disable the LAN, the internet connection returns.
Thanks,
Brian

It turns out that in
System Preferences->Network->Show: Network Port Configurations
You can change the order of the networking by dragging the Port Configurations.
Network sharing wasn't working for me because Ethernet was above Airport, therefore Airport wasn't being used as the internet connection. Having dragged Airport above Ethernet, it is now being used for the internet, and the sharing across the Ethernet works quite soundly.

Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again. While using FaceTime

While using my iPad air trying to connect to FaceTime, I type in my Apple ID and password then get this message. Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again. Have checked network connection and have internet. Help!

Some basic troubleshooting steps for FaceTime activation.....
Check Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On. Make sure that the time zone setting is also correct.
Try restarting or resetting your iPad and then try activating again.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
