Please help. I can't stay connected to internet idk what to do

Hello, i just bought my macbook pro. Its a Mac OS X ver. 10.5.7 with a 2.26GHz processor.
I have a Netgear 54mbps wireless router WGR614 v8 and a Motorola SB5100 SURFboard Cable modem.
Now the problem im having is with the internet connection with my mac. I live in Virginia and It was working before i went on vacation to tennessee which is an hour behind virginia. It was able to connect with no problems. It was also connecting fine in tennessee as well. But when i came back to Virginia, the mac would connect to my router or atleast say its connected but i can't use the internet at all. I would load either firefox, safari, or itunes store and the page would begin to load and then stop loading in the middle. As if it was freezing, dropping the connection or something. When i look through the airport connectivity, it would stay connected to my router with still no access to the internet. I also checked to make sure i was in the correct time zone with my mac and it was correct.I have a wii, xbox, original pc that are connected to router that operate perfectly. its just my macbook wont connect wirelessly when it used to before i went to tennesse and took it with me. Some of the error messages that i get when i try to use the internet via macbook now are "can't open page because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection" but then minutes later it would connect again, then internet would work. But shortly after it would stop working for a while. and the process continues like a cycle. PLEASE HELP BECAUSE IM CLUELESS. i've looked at many forums but no solution.

Also when i am able to temporarily connect to the internet, it runs super slow and then shortly afterward it looses connection completely. My Mac is no more than 2 feet away from my router and modem

I've been having the same problem for the last 2 weeks, because it's a macbook air it's completely useless!
I spent a tenner on a usb/ethernet cable but it's not Mac Compatable, to buy an official one is going to cost ...god knows. But this machine comes with no superdrive, no ethernet, no adapter for an ethernet. The least they can do is make sure the wifi works! I think I upgraded the OS, but I can't be sure if that coincided with the crap internet speeds.
I'm really angry now, I don't have the time to take it down to shop, and looking on the internet it appears this is really common problem. It's a beautiful machine, but if I knew it was going to be this much hassle I wouldn't have bothered. This is the first and last time I will buy a mac.

Please help. Can no longer connect to my Mac Mini Server

Up until two days ago, my iMacs were connecting to my Mac Mini Server normally. All of a sudden I could no longer transfer files without being prompted to type my password. Enter password and nothing happened, then got an error message stating that I don't have permission to do that. Now, a day later, no acces to my server. Has anyone ever experienced this? Can anyone please help? I've read the Mac mini booklet but doesn't have any troubleshooting info. Thanks in advance.

Hello MrHoffman,
Thank you for the advice. I went into Terminal first and typed in your command and this is what resulted:

Connected to wifi but can't stay connected to internet

I currently have a curve 9300, and my service provider is Telus Mobility. I am connected to wifi and up till about 3 days ago everything was working fine, now it shows I am connected, but I can only get on internet for about 5 mins, I have to shut off all my connections then reconnect them for it to work again. Any ideas as to the problem?

OK...then, with your WiFi radio OFF (e.g., solely running on your carrier data network), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Batt Pull Reboot
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you!
If not, then I recommend that you attempt to boot into Safe Mode:
KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Mode
It may take you multiple attempts to get the ESC key sequence (press/release/hold) correct, so be patient. When successfully into Safe Mode, does the behavior still present? If not, then think carefully...what happened just before this behavior started? A new app? An update? A Theme? Something else? Think carefully as the smallest change could be causal...and attempt to undo whatever that was.
If the behavior does still present in Safe Mode, then you may want to try this procedure to perhaps narrow down the precise causal item:
Load your OS "bare bones"...if anything is optional, do not install it.
If the behavior presents immediately, then try a different OS with step 1
If the behavior does not immediately present, then run for as long as it takes for you to be sure that the behavior will not present.
Add one thing -- no matter how tempting, just one.
If the behavior does not present immediately, then again run for long enough to be sure it will not have the same problem
Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are loaded or the behavior presents
When the behavior presents, you know the culprit...the last thing you loaded.
If the behavior does not re-present, then you know that either step 1 or 2 cured it.
If the behavior presents no matter what, then you likely have a hardware level issue for which no amount of OS or software can cure.
Good luck!

Please Help - WRT54GS "not able to connect to internet"

I just purchased a WRT54GS Wireless Router, and I follow the instructions by putting the CD in first, and I follow the instruction on the CD, but every time I try and set it up a message comes up and says "The router is not able to connect to the internet." blah blah. And I've tried resetting the router, turning the DSL modem off and back on, restarting the computer, unplugging and plugging back in over and over, and I still can't get it to work. Any advice would help. Thanks.

1.Make sure you have good internet with your pc direct to the dsl modem
2. If so, connect the router to the DSL modem and tthen the pc to the router.
3.then open a web page and enter 192.168.1.1 no user name but the default password is "admin"
4.You may have to turn on PPoe on the basic set up page and it will also need your sign on and password. put those in.. leave the rest defaults. Save the settings and then try on home icon on your web browser to see if you can get to the internet.

Steak is my favorite animal.

I can't stay connected to internet. I've changed my location. Same thing. All my other devices are working fine. How can I get my iMac back online?

I am unable to connect to the internet. WiFi, ethernet all working fine. Multiple devices can connect to the internet. Diagnostic on iMac says I'm connected and should be able to access the internet. This is all beyond me. I've changed the location, it appeared to set every thing up. Still doen't work. It must be corrupted so how do I clean it up?

Power Cycle
Power off the router. Unplug it from the wall. Wait for few minutes.
Connect the router back to to the wall.
Power the router back on. Wait until all lights are lit properly. It will take a while.
Restart the computer.
Start up in Safe Mode.

HELP!!! CAN'T STAY CONNECT WITH 54GS

I recently did a clean install and installed my wireless router again. I can't stay connected using this. I can very rarely get online for a minute or two. I have spent many hours on the phone with Linksys and they can't seem to figure it out. I had no connection problems before the clean install. Are we missing something? When I connected this computer to the main router I had no trouble staying online. I hope someone can help me with this.

Are you facing problem on wired as well as wireless connection??
Check the configuration once again .... if required upgrade .... download the latest firmware from linksys website .... ...after upgrade reset & reconfigure the router ...
Observe the connection now ....hope it will work,......

Please help urgently - can't download App World

Dear all,
I posted yesterday about how I've lost access to WhatsApp on my Blackberry Z10. I'm a lecturer and use WhatsApp to communicate with my students so it is urgent that I get back on ASAP. I could not get the application to update or download so I deleted it but that has not helped. The root problem seems to be that App World is gone from my BB, and I can't get it back either.
I have tried several methods of downloading App World and none of them work.
1. If I enter the URL appworld.blackberry.com in the browser on my BB, I get the error "Unable to open appworld://"
2. If I visit www.blackberry.com/appworld/download as instructed on the BB website, it states:
"Simply visit www.blackberry.com/appworld/download from your smartphone to download. Or, enter an email address that’s integrated with your BlackBerry smartphone below and click submit to have a download link sent to you."
When I enter the URL www.blackberry.com/appworld/download in my BB browser it simply refreshes the same page with the same instructions.
3. If I enter the email address integrated with my BB, it sends me an email with the following URL in it:
http://mobileapps.blackberry.com/devicesoftware/entry.do?code=appworld
Currently, entering this URL on my PC or in my BB yields an "HTTP Status 500" exception report. Previously (last night), the same URL was giving the following instruction: "Downloads via a USB connection are not enabled for this product. Please visit our mobile download site using the browser on your Blackberry." But I was using the browser on my BlackBerry and not a USB connection.
4. Searching around the web desperately for a workaround, I found a suggestion to download BlackBerry App World directly from the web at this link. However, when I downloaded this file to my BB and tried to open it, it just said "Unable to open file".
I'm now out of ideas! Please help.

Hi @tom-81030
Thats strange! To confirm, what happens if tyou open BlackBerry World and search for WhatsApp?
This should allow you to see WhatsApp and provide a Install option (link).
If searching for the app doesnt produce any results, try scanning the following QR Code using BlackBerry World on your device. To do this, open BlackBerry World, swipe down from the top of your screen and tap Scan Barcode.
Let me know if this helps!

Can not stay connected to Airport express

I have an airport exress that is less then 9 months old. I have my internet provide wirlessely so my macbook pro picks up the signal and i share it with the airport exress. With the AE set to bridge mode. This was all working fine for the last 3 months, but now for some reason I can not stay connected with any of my devices wirelessly with the AE. I try to connect with my Iphone 4s and when i click on the network to connect i never recieve a check mark on the left all it does is give me the moving circle. I try to search the web on the phone and it will work for a second then not work for who know how long then work for a second ect.... i have hard rebooted the AE, reset network settings in my phone, reset smc and pram. when i access the ae through airport utility on my mac the internet shows green and the AE show amber becuase it says it does not have a valid ip address. I access the AE from my phone and the AE shows the same and the internet will go from green to amber and back. Also it will not stay connected to the AE i try to change setting on the AE through my phone and as long as i do it quickly it works fine, but if i wait anylonger then 10-30 seconds the phone drops the AE and i have to start over even though it will pick it up again with in a second or two. this is the same for ipad, three iphones, dell computer, and a android phone.

Simply reconfigure your Airport Express to either use for airtunes only or to extend the range of the existing network. This effectively connects the Airport Express to your main wireless router as a basic access node rather than a separate router creating its own network.
If you consult the User Guide that came with your Airport Express you'll find additional information on how to setup an Express to simply extend a local wireless network rather than function independently.

How do I get rid of the Microsoft Setup Assistant loop? I migrated my software/documents from another laptop so don't have the disk to reinstall. Please help! Can't open any Microsoft Office software, like Word, and stuck in a loop?

I migrated my software/documents from another laptop so don't have the disk to reinstall. Please help! Can't open any Microsoft Office software, like Word (for 2008), and stuck in a loop?
Whenever I select Word Microsoft Setup Assistant appears, asks for feedback, then after selecting okay (both on saying yes or no to feedback) goes on to a registration page. When I click on this it says I've already registered so I just click okay, and then move on to a update page. After this, if I click on Word, the process repeats itself.
As I said, I don't have the disk to reinstall, and can't find the Office Settings to delete as many pages have suggested I should try. Safe Boot restarting also hasn't worked... Really stuck and need Word very soon for work.
If you can help, that would be great, and feel free to ask any questions about the situation as I'm not an expert here.
Cheers,
Jack

First, export your contact from iCloud.com and save them on your computer in a safe spot some where (like you desktop). Use this to help you do this: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3606
Next, on both of your devices, go to Settings > iCloud and turn on contacts and select Merge. Then turn off contacts and select 'Delete form my [device]' when prompted.
Now go back to iCloud.com and select a contact (yes they will all be messed up again) and select Command+A on a Mac or Control+A on a PC to select all of the contacts. Tap the delete key on your keyboard (or right click /control click a contact and select delete).
You iPhone, iPad and iCloud.com should not be empty for contacts.
Go back to Settings > iCloud on both devices and turn on contacts again (you should not see merge this time).
Next, go back to iCloud.com and import your contacts (those exported .vcards). You can either drag and drop them into the empty contacts list in your web browser, or you can use the gear icon to import.
You cleaned up contacts should import correctly into iCloud.com and sync to both of your devices.
Good luck.

Hi Buterem,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your MacBook Pro since your recent Yosemite update. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you are having intermittent but persistent responsiveness issues with your mouse or trackpad, you may want to try using Activity Monitor to see if these incidents correspond to occupied system resources, especially system memory or CPU. You may find the following article helpful:
How to use Activity Monitor - Apple Support
If the entire system hangs or locks up (for example, if the system clock freezes and stops counting up), you may also be experiencing some variety of Kernel Panic. If that is the case, you may also find this article useful:
