No internet access..connected to router fine, did ping tests, still no internet

I am trying to get my pc running windows xp connected to the wireless network. I've gone through all the troubleshooting I can find on the connection. All the trouble shooting shows that the connections are fine, yet going into explorer I get a message that there is no internet connection. Very, very frustrated. Help.

You didn't give a lot of information to go on.
What did you ping? Did it complete or not?
Does your PC get a 192.168.1.x IP address, or does it get a 169.254.x.x. address?
Can you ping the router?
Can you login to the router?
If so, what is the status of your WAN connection on the main status page?
Have you tried a wired connection?

Can't connect in WEP/ Lenovo Access connections/ befw11s4 router

I am using a BEFW1154 router with Comcast Cable on a Windows XP platform with Lenovo Access connections to manage my wireless, and I can't get my router to work in the WEP encrypted mode. The router works perfectly well when it's not encrypted, and it also works when connected by Ethernet. I have updated the firmware (although I know this is an old router). On the router end, I have tried generating both a 64 and 128-bit key. My settings are all default otherwise, except for authentication in the "Wireless" tab, which I have changed to Shared. (It didn't work in Open or Both). In Access Connections, I have chosen "Static Wep" for Wireless security type, "Shared" for authentication method, and then entered either the 10 Hex for 64-bit encryption or 26 Hex for 128-bit encryption. Neither works! I've also tried pretending it's WPA-TSK, WPA2-TSK, WPA-AES and WPA2-AES also, for good measure, just in case. It says the authentication does not work, whatever I do. I've also tried just using plain old Windows to manage the connection, but that's not working either. This Thinkpad T42 and Access Connections connects successfully to networks all over the place, so it's definitely something I'm doing. I had to clone my MAC address in the router's interface to get it to work wirelessly initially, FYI. Don't know if this is related. I'm worried I'm doing something very simple wrong, like entering the WEP key incorrectly or not using 13 alphanumeric instead. Anyone with any insight here?

Well try upgrading the firmware of the router & keep on holding tightly the reset button in such a way that power light is blinking on the router & then do a complete network power cycle i.e., unplug the power cables from the modem & from the router & then plug in the power cable to the modem first once all the lights are solid green you could plug in the power cable to the router & configure the router & check out it will definately work!!
To do the wireless settings:-
Please access the setup page of the router by launching an Internet
Explorer and type on the address bar, 192.168.2.1 and press enter. When
it prompts for the username and password, leave the username field
empty and provide password as “admin "" all in lower cases and then
click on ok.
Click on the Wireless tab
- Here Wireless Network mode should be mixed
- Provide any name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box, all in
lower cases without any spaces in between.
- Set wireless channel to 11
- And wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on save
settings.
Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the
Network Identifier.
For Wireless Security : -
Now Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security.
Change the Wireless security mode to WEP
Encryption should be 64 bits.
Leave the Pass phrase blank, don't type in anything.
And under WEP Key 1 type in any 10 numbers please.
Click on save settings.
Please make a note of WEP Key 1 as this is the Security Key for the
Wireless Network.

Airport extreme connects to router fine, but express doesn't

Hi,
So here is my setup:
Router -> Ethernet cable -> Airport Extreme = Wifi
This works absolutely fine. My problem is that I use an airport express to boost the extreme signal, and it's not working.
I get two errors, "Internet connection" and "No DNS Servers".
But after reading up on this, people are saying it's a problem with the communication between the express and the router.
But the airport extreme is communicating perfeclty fine with the router.
Any ideas would be very helpful,
Thanks

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
I probably can't help much, but I have occasionally had the same problem. You might try going to System Preferences>Network and look at your Airport connection. See if the diagnostics can help.
Good luck!

R51 - Access Connections vs win xp wireless

Hi!
I've been using ThinkPads for years but this is the first time I have posted to the Lenovo forum.
I just installed ThinkVantage Access Connections on my very old R51 (2004 but still going strong!) using the new and improved SystemUpdate. After re-booting I was unable to make the wireless connection to my home network. Strange, as it was working just fine before using the old IBM Access Connection. After muddling around some I tried uninstalling my wireless card and letting win xp do an auto-reinstall after re-booting. Well that did the trick - I can now connect wirelessly to my home network and the internet.
However, Access Connections thinks that my wireless drivers are still improperly installed. My systray wireless icon shows a strong connection but the Access Connection icon indicates I am not connected. I've decided to ignore Access Connections (removed it from my systray) and just let win xp manage my wireless connections. But if there is a way to fix this I would like to go back to using Access Connections. The old version was working just fine in managing my different wireless connection profiles.
Browsing the forums it looks as if a number of others are having similar issues with Access Connections and their wireless network connections. I wonder if Lenovo needs to put out a fix via System update.

Can't make direct connection to router

I cannot connect to Internet. The cable Internet router was connected to my Airport Extreme, but connection kept going down. Service guy tested all lines and put in new router with latest firmware. He then bypassed Airport extreme and made direct connection of router to IMac for testing. It worked for about an hour, then connection lost again (link light on router is down-Internet connection tested on IMac, but no connection detected). Put in new Ethernet cable, but no difference. Service guy uses MACS so tested my connection software and settings, but seems okay. Argh! I plug in PC laptop and connection with modem is fine. Service person said he has seen this before, IMac onboard card (ethernet) has failed.
Is this possible? have rebooted, tried diagnostics cd, unplugged/plugged all cables, etc. IMac 2 yrs. old. How is this fixed & is it costly? Thanks.

With Apple Care extended warranty it would be covered. I believe that the Ethernet port is on the logic board so that may need to be replaced. A new logic board is easily US$600.00.
But your explanation is a bit hazy. First the wireless connection had issues and now the Ethernet has issues?

Access Connections on Windows 7 with Standard User Privilege

My company is developing a Windows 7 Professional image based on Lenovo’s factory build. One of the key objectives to this image is to get our users away from being Administrators (admin) on their systems to greatly reduce the security risks associated with admin privileges. One of the ThinkVantage utilities we have found most valuable to our laptop users is Access Connections (AC). In our initial testing we have found that AC does not allow for the creation or modification of connection Profiles as a standard user.
Is there any way to configure AC so it does not require admin privilege to create and manage profiles?
Thanks

Hi,
yes, the previous post is the correct one.
Just one note, in case you want to deploy some network connections to multiple users, then you can use the .LOA files, where you can also distribute specific configuartion settings for the end user. All that is needed, once the .LOA file is on please is to restart the both AC services and you are ready to go.
This is just a note, in case you have >1000 users which you would like to administrate.
Cheers

Cannot connect to router (Windows is fine!)

I cannot get my computer to connect to my netopia router at my office. I've been on the phone with tech support for around 30 minutes and have been through all of the regular settings and resets.
When I run bootcamp and load my computer with Windows, I can connect to the router fine (ethernet and wireless).
When I'm on the Mac, I get connected (green light or connection signal from wireless), but I get no internet and cannot access my router.
I have a suspicion that is has something to do with IP addresses. My router IP address is 192.168.1.254. When I log on wirelessly it says my IP address is 192.168.2.23, which is incorrect. When I plug in the ethernet, my address is 192.168.2.21, which must also be incorrect. Also of note is that under search domains "Belkin" is in gray. I'm not even connecting to a Belkin router!
I do want to note that for some strange reason, after a bunch of resets, sometimes I am able to connect wirelessly with a correct IP (192.168.1.13 or something), but then I lose the connection and can never get it back.
What gives?!?

Are you sure your Mac is set to obtain its IP address via DHCP?
It sounds a lot like your Mac has a manual IP address or addresses set.
If that's not the case, your office may (erroneously) have multiple DHCP servers running, which could create the problem you're seeing.
In such an situation it's a pure race condition as to which DHCP server you will obtain an address from and whether you will keep a good one once obtained.
But check for the manual IP address setting first.

Connects to router, but not the internet

Since I got it about six months ago, my Macbook Pro (2.4 GHz Core Duo, 13-inch) has had issues with getting on the Internet. I don't think it is the router because it happens with other wireless networks; aslo my partner's Macbook (and my iPod touch) works fine on our network.
Anyway, when I open the computer up, it connects to the router fine but I can't access the Internet. I have to reset the router through its software (i.e. by going to its IP address in my web browser) for it to work, and then it's fine. It's irritating—I don't understand why it won't just connect to the Internet upon waking up.
The router's an all-in-one router/cable model provided by our Internet company (Rogers in Canada). But, as I said, I don't think the problem is the router as this happens with other networks and doesn't happen with my partner's Macbook.
Any ideas? Thanks!

I am renting an apartment for a month. It comes with internet access; modem and router. The owner's laptop connects fine. My iPhone connects fine. My wife's iPhone connects fine. Her MacBook cannot connect. I removed the owner's router and put my own in. Everything connects fine. Bottom line is just because a couple of systems connect doesn't mean it's not the router.

Airport is connected to router but no internet

I have seen many forums and posts on this and nothing seems to help so i will explain my own situation and see if it helps. I am using white macbook, purchased from the apple store in september '07. I am running os x 10.6.8. The router i am using is a D Link DIR 615. The line of connection is as follows: cable from wall to modem, modem to router, and devices connect to router via wireless.Here is my dillema. Airport connects to the router, full bars, i get internet conection for about 2 minutes, then i get nothing. Airport is indicating that I am still connected to the router, and I have an IP (not the 167 or self assigned, it says im good to go). For me to get back on the internet i have to turn off the airport, turn it back on and reconnect to the router. I have tried to renew DHCP lease, i can when connection is good but after the 2 minutes i can't. I tried taking the network off my keychain to where i would have to type in the password each time, that didn't do it. I changed the password on the router, as well as other settings, that didn't do it. The reason this puzzles me and make me believe that it is my own airport is because multiple machines in our household work fine on the router, including a macbook pro form either 09 or '10, an iPhone 3G S, and an android smart phone. other people have come over and used our wireless with no problem. My computer is the only one that does this. And the shame of it is, I am a graphic designer and I use my computer the most in the houshold, and I need the internet connection the most. if anyone has any idea, and I am completely open to giving more information if you need it. I understand it could be extremely technical and it is already beyond my reach.

Hi Kelly Chant-
Any chance that the little AirPort antenna in the back has become dislodged? Try powering down everything on the network including routers and/or switches, wait 10 minutes, turn it all back on and see what happens.

I can connect to "linksys" as a wireless network, but get no internet access. Please help! Thank you!

The settings that you provided is for the modem so I suppose you can able to go online with modem… Please let me know the IP address that you receiving from the modem… Since the connection that you have is DSL connection and if you are receiving the IP address from the modem under LAN (Local Area Connection) is a Private IP address (192.168.X.X) then follow the steps:
# Connect the modem with the Linksys Router WRT54G on the Internet Port and then connect the Computer on any of the Ethernet Port on the Router (Numbered – 1, 2, 3 and 4)…
# Open up the browser and on the address bar type 192.168.1.1 that will open up the Router setup page…
# Look for the Local IP Address and change it to 192.168.2.1 …
# Click Save Settings...
# Then Click on wireless Tab create the Wireless Network Name SSID and select the channel to 6, 9, and 11… Click Save Settings...
# Then Click on Wireless Security sub tab and select the security mode and provide the password as per the requirement… Click Save Settings...
# Click on Status Tab on the Router Setup page check if Internet IP Address has numbers or values. If the Internet IP Address has numbers, the computer should now be able to access the Internet. If the IP address is all zeroes (0.0.0.0) click "IP Address Release" first then click "IP Address Renew". If the IP address is still all zeroes, enable PPPoE on the router.
To enable PPPoE on the router you should have a username and password provided by the ISP (Internet Service Provider) and follow the steps...
# Under the Setup tab, set the Internet Connection Type to PPPoE…
# Enter the Username and Password that your ISP provided, including the domain in the User Name field if necessary…
# Click Save Settings...
# Then Click on wireless Tab create the Wireless Network Name SSID and select the channel to 6, 9, and 11… Click Save Settings...
# Then Click on Wireless Security sub tab and select the security mode and provide the password as per the requirement… Click Save Settings...
# Click the Status tab then look for Login Status and check if it says Connected. If it’s connected, you should be able to access the Internet.
After doing the following settings then connect the wireless computer the preferred Network… Once it gets connected you will be online wirelessly as well…

WRT54G software installation now prevents internet connection WITHOUT router

Since installing the software/drivers that were on the installation CD I can no longer connect to the internet when NOT using the router. i.e. if I connect my modem directly to my PC it recognises the modem is connected but then gives me a "limited or no connectivity" message and I cannot connect to the internet at all. However, if I connect my modem to the router and then connect the router to my PC I can get an internet connection just fine. Whatever software was installed has prevented all internet connectivity when not using the router. Does anyone know how I can get a direct modem-to-PC connection working again? Thanks

I want to change Router2's Operating Mode from "Gateway" to "Router" because I
want to turn off NAT on Router2 so that I can access all computers attached to

The problem is after the mode change from "Gateway" to "Router", and regardless
whether I disable RIP or enable RIP, and on what interfaces it is enabled, computer
192.168.2.160 does not have internet connection.

This is not expected because NAT to internet should still be done by Router1, no? Computer
behind Router1 with IP 192.168.1.x has internet connection.
[5] It looks like I cannot change the Routing Table Entry on Router2. I do not think I need to change anything,
just an observation.
[6] If I use LAN to LAN connection, then both intranet and internet works. [The internet IP of Router2 can be
anything not in the same subnet of the Router1, and DHCP on the local side should be disabled to avoid conflict
with the the DHCP on Router1].

I have a question. Unfortunately in order to ask my question, I have to have a lengthy description of my setup. Basically, I have a second Linksys router in "router" operating mode with NAT disabled connected to the Verizon router, and I have a computer which is in a different subnet (192.168.2.x) behind the Linksys router. This computer can communicate with computers behind Verizon router in subnet (192.168.1.x), but cannot reach internet. This is a simplified version of my question, full details are in the original post.
If I setup the Linksys router in "gateway" operating mode, which means with NAT enabled, then both intranet and internet works, but there is no easy way to setup port forwarding for 10 compueters in 192.168.2.x network to communicate with 10 computers in 192.168.1.x network.
If I setup the Linksys router in a LAN to LAN configuration with Verizon routers, but this way all computers are in the same subnet, I want them to be in different subnet for access control and things like that.
I hope this makes things a little clear.
Thanks.
