Rebooted my WRT160N, now my laptop connects to my network but won't connect to the internet

I forgot my original network password so I rebooted my wirless router, now my computer reconizes my home's wireless network and connects to it (accepted the new password and everything), but when I open my browser it can't connect to the internet. My internet connection still works when I plug my laptop directly into my cable modem, and my laptop says I'm connected to my wireless network, so I don't know what the problem is here.
I've been tearing my hair out for the last few hours trying to figure out a way to fix this, so any help would be greatly appreciated. 
Thank You
Solved!

  • Laptop sees Photosmart on network, but won't connect

    I have a Pavilion dv4 with Windows 7.  I have a Photosmart C4795.  My printer used to be hooked up to my desktop, but my HP Desktop has crashed and it's trash.  So now I'm trying to hook my laptop up to my printer on the network.  For two days, I was able to connect and download with no problems, but my laptop would never print.  Wouldn't even do a test page.  Uninstalled and reinstalled at least 10 times.  I ran the scan doctor and it said there was nothing wrong with my printer, but it wouldn't print a test page either.  It then had me do an internal test page and that one work, so it diagnosed that the software was bad.
    All of that was yesterday.  NOW TODAY, I uninstalled and reinstalled the software.  It's the most up to date software and drivers from the HP Support page.  Now, my printer recognizes that the printer is on the network, but won't install the printer.  It did the diagnostics, then brought up the screen where it showed my computer on the left, modem in the middle, printer on the right.  It gets about halfway through setting it up, then quits and says it can't complete.  I ran the scan doctor again and it says that the full software version is not installed.  I JUST downloaded it from the website and installed it twice and it won't work.  The version I download from the website is around 146mb, but when I download it from the scan doctor page, it's over 200 mb.  I run that software and it is exactly the same.
    I have tried to set it up via usb.  It gets to the 7th of the 8 steps, then it won't go any further.  Again, the printer is detected, but it says the appropriate drivers aren't there.
    I have tried to set up it's own port using it's USB and a different driver, but that gives me an error.  Unable to install printer. Operation could not be completed (error 0x000003eb).)
    Would someone please help me, and then if I reply with what it is doing next, please respond?  
    Please help me get through this.  Two days now and I don't have a solution.
    Just me, friebe13

    Hi,
    If you are using AT&T wireless router to connect the Photosmart to network, you can refer this link for a solution :

  • Can connect to Linksys WRT54G but can't get to the internet.

    PowerBook G4 17" 1GHz with OS 10.5.4
    Linksys WRT54G v8.00.5
    SpeedStream DSL Modem
    I am having a strange issue. I am able to connect to my wireless network with my PowerBook and can see the Linksys setup page, but I cannot get on the internet. If I bypass the router I can get online with my PowerBook. If I use an ethernet cable connected to my Linksys I can get online with my PowerBook. My Sony Viao can connect wirelessly and get on the internet with no issue. My PlayStation 3 and PSP have no issues. It is solely this machine that is having the issue. I contacted Linksys and went through their troubleshooting to no avail.
    Does anyone have any idea as to what the issue may be, or what I can try to resolve this issue? I have done everything I can think of and no luck. Any ideas?

    I plugged the IP address into Safari and, although there were 27 errors, the page loaded. I hadn't tried that before. Interesting.
    The fact that the ping worked means you are connected to the Internet, and what is likely failing (causing the "You are not connected" message) is DNS name resolution.
    DNS name resolution is what converts names like "www.opendns.com" to numbers, like the numbers I gave above, 208.67.219.99.
    Changing your system to use the OpenDNS DNS servers, as directed above, will fix the name resolution issue on your system.

  • Can see network but won't connect

    I have three computers using an Airport Express base station. They've worked just fine until this morning, when I bumped up security by setting WPA/WPA2 Personal.
    Since then, the Power PC G4 (OS X 10.4.11) can see the base station's network, but will not connect to it.
    I've done multiple restarts, verified permissions, unplugged and replugged the base station and also the cable modem. Nothing has worked.
    Please help.

    Yes, if I set "Security" to "None," the G4 can connect. But I set it up after I found my next-door neighbor's shared files folder listed on my network this morning. He's an OK guy, but it made me aware of how vulnerable my network is.
    My firmware is version 9.52. I've prowled the Apple site looking for an indication of whether that's the latest, but couldn't find one. My "Software Update" says everything's up-to-date.

  • Apple tv is connected to the network but won't connect to internet?

    My apple tv 3 is connected to our wireless network but will not connect to the internet.  I also cannot turn on home sharing.  All the other wireless devices in our house have no problem with the internet.  I have hooked the apple tv up to the computer and restored the factory defaults but that did not help.  Any suggestions?

    have you tried connecting using ethernet to see if it's a wifi issue ?
    and have you verified that the required ports are allowed on the network ?

  • Windows XP laptop sees wireless network but won't connect

    I set up a wireless network on my airport extreme using my MacBook. The McBook runs great on the wireless network. My old Dell laptop running Windows XP sees the wireless network I created (with full signal strength) but every time I hit "connect" I get the following error message, "Windows is unable to connect to the selected network. The network may no longer be in range. Please refresh the list of available networks, and try to connect again." When I referesh the list, the wireless network is still there, and i still cannot connect, getting the same error message.
    Any suggestions?

    Hello apetera. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Per chance are you using WEP for your wireless encryption?
    If so, one of the problems with WEP is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP.
    In order to make things easier, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling the use of simple easy to remember WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys. The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a non-Apple client and vice versa.

  • Windows XP MCE sees network but won't connect

    Hello
    I've managed to get my AAEB working with two of my computers, one is a regular desktop which is connected through the wired outputs, this works like a charm.
    The other is my personal laptop, an Acer Ferrari with Windows XP pro, this now also works perfectly on the wireless system.
    Now I'm trying to get my brothers laptop to connect to our network and internetconnection through the AAEB. His laptop sees the network but when I try to connect to it it's not possible, I never even get to the part where I have to enter the password.
    I'm using WPA/WPA2 for security and as stated having no problems on my own computer that's running WinXP Pro, but this one that runs WinXP MCE can't connect.
    I've tryed disabling the security on the AAEB and when I do that it's possible to connect with the WinXP MCE.
    Please help :'(

    Thank you very much for your suggestion.
    It might be me who doesn't understand fully what you mean but my problem is that I can't get the PC to connect to the wireless network.
    If I plug in a ethernet cable everything works like a charm however. But I just get an error when trying to connect to the Wlan that the network might not be available anymore, eventhough I'm using it on my personal laptop at this very moment.
    edit in response to your post also, I never get far enough for it to even try to recieve an IP

  • Airport card sees networks but won't connect.

    I'm not entirely sure why.
    Wired ethernet works fine, and our G4 Desktop's Airport card works fine.
    Mine, however, is being a bit wonky.
    I shut the computer down for the night about a week ago.
    Brought it back up and got the "There was an error joining AirPort network *our SSID*".
    Fine, sometimes it does that. I wait and it usually works in a few minutes.
    Not this time.
    We rebooted our Linksys WAP and our Cisco router, no good.
    Shut the iBook down again, reseated the Airport card, fired it back up and paid close attention to the verbose boot this time.
    Nothing abnormal, no errors.
    Still no wireless connection.
    I've tried connecting to other wireless networks around us, and we even defaulted the WAP back to out of box state (i.e. it was wide open and not passworded), but nothing. Every other wireless device in the house (G4 desktop, Dell laptop, and a Toshiba tablet) works just fine.
    The computer can SEE wireless networks, but it can't connect to anything.
    There have been no major system updates recently, and the only program I've installed in the past 3 MONTHS has been the World of Warcraft Burning Crusade expansion. Nothing else has changed, which is what's stumping me.
    I'm starting to wonder if:
    A) I'm overlooking something incredibly simple.
    B) My airport extreme card is dying.

    firstly, tesserax, a tremendous thank you for your help. unfortunately, i tried each step you suggested, but the problem continues.
    step 1: i have tried and failed to connect to several different networks in a handful of locations (home, work, friend's house, local coffee shop, etc.).
    step 2: i have disabled my own wireless encryption as well as the wireless encryption at a friends house, however, to do so i had to use their ibook, as my own either didn't list the base station in the AirPort utility (although it did list the base station in the AirPort status pull down), or it asked for a password even though the base station wasn't password protected (maybe this may add some insight into the issue?).
    step 3: i have connected the computer directly to the modem using an ethernet cable and was able to go online - perhaps this means the problem is related solely to the card.
    step 4: i moved the the com.apple.networkConfig.plist file and and the SystemConfiguration folder to the desktop and restarted. unfortunately, OS did NOT rebuild the files. instead, i had to go through the network diagnostics to rebuild them manually. while the files were replaced, the problem was not solved.
    step 5: i reset the PRAM, but the problem still exists.
    step 6: i reset the PMU, but the problem still exists.
    i then tried various combinations of your suggestions, including moving the files out of the preferences folder and then reseting the PRAM and the PMU, but still nothing.
    after having attempted every fix i could think of (and that was before posting to this forum) i did a full erase and install of the OS. since that's usually the cure all to whatever ails the computer, it's my assumption that the issue is a physical (hardware) one. that said, if you have any other suggestions i will be more than happy to give them a shot.
    thanks again,
    brad

  • After connecting to Bluetooth keyboard, iPad 2 will not connect to Internet (wifi) at all. Wifi is ok, have tried turning off bltooth, wifi on iPad. It sees the network but won't connect.  Help?  Have also reset network settings etc

    My iPad wifi was working great until I I connected it by Bluetooth to a keyboard (zagg).  It was the first time I'd used Bluetooth
    Immediately Internet was dropped on my ipad. My iPhone was and is still connected no prob. And I cannot get the iPad wifi to work again....at all!!!
    This is major as I am away from my desktop for three months.  Any fix cannot involve being at my desktop with iTunes which is 10,000 km away
    So far This is what I've tried based on other discussions-
    -turned Bluetooth off and unpaired to keyboard which was also turned off
    - turned iPad wifi off and on (several times)
    - forgot the network I useArrive Jul 19 depart Aug 25th. Originally it was Sept 9.
    -- reset network settings
    What happens is that the iPad sees the network and I enter my password. But, instead of getting "check mark" indicating a successful connections it keeps "circling".  Sometimes the airport bars will show, but disappear or flicker.  It never connects with a check noted in settings.   Any attempts to use internet confirm there is no connection
    My network is not a cafe or public network. It is one I regularly use here at my family's home where I am visiting
    Any ideas!

  • HP Photosmart 7515 says it is connected to wireless network but won't print from anywhere.

    My HP photosmart 7515 used to work on my network.  I could print from iphones and my mac mini.  Now it says its connected, it has the IP address 10.0.1.3 and everything on the HP network configuration page says it is functioning normally, but the printer can't be reached by any device and I can't open it in my browser when I type the IP address into it.  I've tried powering it down and unplugging it but at this point I am at a loss.  The only thing I can think of is that I ran a Mackeeper fast cleanup of extraneous files recently and perhaps something was removed that needed to stay.  I don't know.  I tried installing the HP utility for Mavericks (my current operating system on the Mini) but that can't find the printer. I tried typing in the IP address manually but that didn't work either.  
    When I try to connect to it through eprint it says that it is connected but says there is a problem with the printer.  What's the problem?  It says it is unspecified and to see printer front panel for information on resolving the issue. Where on the front panel?  I have no idea.  
    Happy to start from the beginning but this is really becoming a pain.  Why doesn't it work?
    Help!  David

    FIrst of all, get rid of Mackeeper, it will cause more problems that it will solve.  To uninstall it, open it and have it uninstall itself, then restart your Mac.
    Have you restarted your router?  What router are you using?

    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.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • I connected my BEFW11S4 router but still can't access the internet.

    I have a BEFW11S4 Linksys router and I have connected the right wires and everything and I still cant access the internet.. I go to network connections and i see that the connection i'am using says ' connected' so what gives? I load the browser and it says problem loading page.. can somebody assist me please??
    Message Edited by EsTiLO on 02-02-2008 02:26 PM

    I'm actually the 15-year-old son of the person this account is signed up for (he's making me fix it because he has other things to do), but anyway, I'm experiencing the same problem, but I will go into a bit more detail than Estilo to verify it is the same and hopefully get a bit more help:
    My dad's computer can connect straight to the modem (MSN Arescom NetDSL 800) and run the internet just fine, but only his computer; I've tried plugging my Xbox 360 directly into the modem, and it cannot connect because the ISP knows that it's not my dad's computer...?
    But the internet will not run through the router to any computers connected to it. My dad's computer is even wired to the router, and still no internet. We've found that it's an IP issue, and trying to change that doesn't work as it give us a "169" IP (a "router is there, but I can't communicate with it" IP address) whenever we try to fix anything, rather than the "192.168.1.1" or ".2" that we should have.
    My dad thinks (and I'm not entirely sure he's correctly, but I mostly agree with him) that the computer is the actual central hub for the internet, as in that it runs the administrative settings and makes the internet actually work for the rest of the computers (if his computer isn't on, no other computer can connect to the internet); the router is basically just a splitter.
    The thing is, though, that this problem started randomly about 2 weeks ago as my dad was just looking up some things on craigslist.com; that was the point when the IP addresses changed completely for an undiscernable reason. And 2 weeks ago, my computer was able to connect to the router wirelessly and access the administrative settings. My cousin (who works in this stuff) recommended that I see what I can do to fix the problem by editing the administrative settings from my computer, but now I cannot connect to the router whatsoever.
    My dad and I have narrowed it down to a driver problem, and I'm not sure what to do about it. The reason for this is we tried getting a new router (the WRT54G), and the same connection issue remained. If this is the problem, you know what the problem really is, or you have questions, let both me and Estilo know.
    Simplified Outline:
    +  comp to modem (MSN Arescom NetDSL 800) [working]
    +  comp to router (BEFW11S4) [failed]
    +  comp to new router (WRT54G) [failed]
    +  router to internet [failed] (incorrect IP to connect to ISP)
    +  not a router problem
    ?  driver problem
    ?  designated computer needed as central hub
    -  wireless connection to router was recognized (no longer works?)
