Recommendations:Wireless Router Broadband over phone for Macbook (white)

Can you please offer advice about buying a wireless router for my new Macbook?
I have been using old fashioned cables and a speedtouch modem on my eMac up to now.
Buying the Macbook has pushed me into the 21st century and I'm getting my head around wireless and what I need to do to connect to the internet.
What are good buys for wireless routers?
I have a broadband connection using the landline.
I am looking for the most user friendly solution please!

Have purchased the Modem/router supplied by ISP.

  • I've been using my wireless router to go online for years...

    I've been using my wireless router to go online for years with no problems.  But every since we moved and changed internet services, I can't go wirless anymore.  We went from having DSL through Cavalier to DSL through Verizon at a different home address.  The error messages I get say that there is little or no internet connectivity when I have the router connected to the modem.  I've tried using the Linksys router installation CD, but it always stops at the point of configuring the router because it says there is no internet connection.  I have an external Linksys wireless card and it shows a good signal when it's inserted.  The IP address still says http://192.168.1.1.  I've tried powering everything on and off numerous times. Is there something else I can do to be wireless again?

    Can you get an internet connection if you connect directly to the modem?

  • Recommended Wireless Router

    Can anyone recommend a really good wireless router that will work well with my 17" MBP and my wife's PC?
    Thanks!

    I have a Linksys WRT54GS that works fine in my home network - my MacBook Pro, Vista Desktop PC and an HP wifi printer (all WPA2 encrypted connections). Having said that though, I've never had a problem in the past either, first using a D-Link,then a Belkin (had the linksys for the past couple of years).
    99% of the time, one wireless router will work as well as another - 802.11b/g/n are standards, so it shouldn't really matter. I know it sometimes does, usually because of obtuse configuration/settings interfaces. But I've set up dozens of different makes/models of wifi routers for mixed Apple&Windows environments, and there's usually no problem.

  • Which wireless router do I need for multiple VPN tunnels?

    I work at home and I connect to my office VPN (SSH Extranet Client) thru cable broadband. I need to have 2 VPN tunnels open as I frequently have my laptop & desktop connected to my work VPN. I've had a BEFSX41 for the past 3 years and it's worked good as it allowed for 2 VPN tunnels. It just died on me a few days ago and I would like to go wireless now. What wireless router(s) would meet my needs? Thanks in advance for any input.Message Edited by nolesworld on 11-27-200606:24 PM

  • Cisco 2811 routers to route video over ip for polycom equipment.

    Hi forum,
    We are currently using polycom equipments over ISDN links for video conferencing, however, we intend to switch to our EIGRP E1 lines for that. all our sites are currently using 2811 routers to route both data and voip traffic. How do I provision the network so that I can use my E1 lines for video over ip, How should I design it?
    Besides, How do i provide video over ip service to my mobile users who vpn into my network.
    Thanks and best regards,
    paul

    first, on provisioning your network for video over ip, make sure you can implement the QoS required to provide a clear, unchoppy video stream.
    your design could look something like the following:
    polycom >> network >> router >> E1 >> router >> network >> user
    (very basic description, you may require more detail depeding on your needs)
    also, for video over ip to your vpn users, you might be able to use something like cisco IPTV or the likes. (depending on the type of video you want to provide your users)
    please see the following link for video over ip for polycom:

  • Time capsule wireless router can not connect both Macbook and iPad

    Currently my new time capsule can only connect my macbook pro wirelessly or by ethernet. My iPad or PC can not been connected to it. I guess the setting for the router is something wrong, but I do not know how to fix it. The settings indicate that there is no DNS address, and the router is off (bridged). I tried to change the router setting, but does not succeed. Sincerely ask for help.

    Sorry but I need you to clarify.. router is off.. what router are you talking about??
    If the clients do not have DNS, have you tried just supplying the standard google dns ie... 8.8.8.8 (very lucky number for Chinese) or 8.8.4.4
    http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/
    You can usually set dns manually whilst still using DHCP for IP address.
    But better to start again.. reset the TC..
    Give it a simple name .. no spaces.. all alphanumeric.. the default name is NOT windows networking valid.
    eg I name my TC.. TC1
    Wireless name.. same rules.. I use TC24 and TC5 (I use separate names for 2.4ghz and 5ghz as I do not want computers auto swapping bands) I also set channels manually.. again because I do not want them auto swapping channels.
    Wireless passwords.. same rules.. you need to make it a bit longer of course.. but pure alphanumeric no spaces.
    In the disk area, assuming you want disk access.. then put in the WORKGROUP name.. usually WORKGROUP.. in caps btw.
    If you do all that it will usually also work with iPad.

  • What kind of wireless router would be best for my Westell B90?

    I used to have linksys WRT54G router set up with my westell B90-21004 modem. It used to work fairly well until I've noticed that I've been getting intermittent internet connection. I've called verizon twice. First time, they asked me to switch the ends of the line connected to my modem. The problem continued. The second time, it was because the line between the modem and the phone jack was over 14 ft. I'm still getting intermittent problem. So I've been looking around for a solution and I figure it might be the router. As of right now, the modem is connected directly to the PC and it seems to be fine. When I tried to plug it back to the router, I can't even get online. What kind of router should I get? This was my second router. I used to have a netgear that didn't work at all. Is it even the router's fault? Maybe I did a bad setup or something?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Looking back, I should've made the subject title more clear. My modem is a Westell B90 and I have a linksys router. Day two from the changes I made are still ok. I'm still getting what APPEARS to be intermittent internet connection, but it seems that's only if I use firefox. Everything I load in internet explorer seems to load smoothly.
    #1 Do you have any add-ons installed for FireFox?
    #2 If so, which ones? Please name all of them...

  • What is fastest possible wireless router and pci card for G4?

    There are many companies offering wireless transfer of data that exceeds the Airport Extreme card and Base Station. Are any pci cards other than AE compatible with a G4?

    Well if you connect via Ethernet (100Mbps) and use 3rd party wireless items similarly spec'd you will get a faster speed. However if your using the Airport card (iMac G4 800MHz can only take a Airport card (802.11b - 11Mbps)) then you will be forever limited to that speed. 
    Apple's Airport Extreme is limited to 802.11g - 54Mbps and is only for 1GHz+ iMac G4's. This is odd as Apple was such an early adoptor of WiFi (1999 on the iBook G3) that they haven't kept up in recent years - but 54Mbps is ample for all but the most demaning applications.
    You can't put a PCI card in an iMac G4 - where would it go?
    Your best bet is a 3rd party wireless bridge that connects via Ethernet and gives onwards access to WiFi networks.

  • HT4199 Hi I have a iPad which works fine on my wireless router and a iPad mini which won't work all the time on my wireless router it's work for a minutes then stops, it won't work on my apps the loading icon just goes round, but the iPad works fine all t

    I've even tried only having the iPad  mini on the router but that's not even worked. Safari works but the apps are the worst and its what I use most.

    Hi Friends,
    I found the solution for this problem (because I faced it too): go to Settings>>General>>Reset>>Reset Internet Settings (the third option in IOS 6).
    Five minutes later my iPhone 4S works fine again.
    If the issue persists, forget the wifi connection, then sign in again.
    Hope it helps

  • On e-bay hunt for macbook white battery match

    What numbers/letters am I looking for on my mac in System Profiler that match with the same numbers/letters of the
    e-bay macbook battery I wish to buy? Or is it all just in "About this Mac"?

    It depends on your model. If you have one with the removable battery, every one uses the same battery from 2006 through 2009. That's 6 out of the 9 MacBook models.
    If you have the Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibodyyou can find those on eBay at http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=aluminum+macbook++battery+A1278&_sacat=0&_od kw=aluminum+macbook++battery&_sop=12&_osacat=0
    Shut down the computer. Disconnect any cords connected to the computer.
    Turn the computer over.
    Locate the access door latch.
    Push down to release the latch, this sets it in the open position, and remove the access door that covers the battery.    
    With the latch still in its open position, gently pull up on the battery tab to remove the battery.
    Note: The latch must be in its released, open position to remove or replace the battery and access door.
    If you have the Late 2009 model 6,1 and Mid 2010 model 7,1 White Unibody you need to go to the Apple store for your new battery. Unless you are really comfortable with opening the White Unibody.

  • New LCD case/cover for MacBook White?

    Hello!
    We have a tiny problem- the top cover of our new macbook got some scratches and we are wondering whether it is possible to only change the plastic cover, or is it necessary to change the whole LCD screen?
    BR, Simon

    Hi sikander,
    Welcome to apple forum.
    It is possible (in my opinion) to just change the plastic cover.
    But to make sure that is do able, try to call local apple store or authorize service center.
    But if it is a minor scratch, I'd suggest to let it be because it is not common to change that and the cost might be a bit expensive.
    Good Luck.
