Satellite L350 - Can't connect via WLan

Hi
New to this thread lark
Just bought a L350
I've managed to connect to the interent using a cable, but am unable to connect via wifi.
Wifi is switched on. It finds my BT Home Hub, but when i connect it just says it is unable to.
Help, please

Did you check the Wifi device in Device Manager? Is the driver installed properly?
Try disabling your Firewall, that could be blocking the Wifi connection.
Also try pressing Fn+F9 to toggle the Wireless devices

  • D-Link wireless + Cable Internet:: can't connect via AirPort

    Just got my service changed from DSL to Cable and can't connect via wireless (but can with an Ethernet cable). Have tried the Wi Router settings to no avail. Any ideas? I think I might not be doing some setting in the comp correctly. Please help. Router is D-Link DIR-625.

    Did you open Airport and see if you see the wireless router? If you can see it, you can select it and then make sure it is set up properly in networks in the system prefs.

  • Can't connect via PPPoE in menu bar

    Hello,
    After not touching my Network Configuration settings for like three years, a glitch in my Unison 1.8.1 newsreader prompted me to go in to check, but I then encountered the prompt that has been afflicting lots of people: "Network settings have been changed by another application."
    So after some research here and via Google, I deleted /Library/Preferences/com.apple.networkConfig.plist and restarted the computer with the file still in the trash.
    I then manually reentered my ISP Network Configuration info (TCP/IP and PPPoE, as I use ADSL), but since then, I have only been able to connect via the Internet Connect program, rather than my preferred method that I've always used of connecting by using the PPPoE drop-down menu "Connect" command in the menu bar in the upper-right-hand corner of the screen.
    Going back to System Preferences' Network Configuration, showing the Built-in Ethernet's PPPoE panel, the "Show PPPoE status in menu bar" box remains checked, and indeed does display in the menu bar, however, only with a functioning "Disconnect" command -- NOT the "Connect" command, whose functionality I am seeking to restore.
    I realize this is more of a cosmetic problem, as I can still connect via the Internet Connect program, but would appreciate any tips for restoring the functionality of the PPPoE drop-down menu "Connect" command in the menu bar. Thanks in advance!

    Hi Steve, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, move these files to the Desktop.
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.networkConnect.<12 digit number>.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.internetconnect.plist
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    Then reboot once more.

  • I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.3 and have connected an Epson Workforce 2540 printed that is allegedly Airprint enabled. I can connect and print with a USB cable but can't connect via Airprint. My colleague running 10.7 can. Is this a feature of 10.8?

    I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.3 and have connected an Epson Workforce 2540 printed that is allegedly Airprint enabled. I can connect and print with a USB cable but can't connect via Airprint. My colleague running 10.7 can. Is this a feature of 10.8? Any ideas for a fix?

    iOS devices use AirPrint to connect to a supported printer. OS X will use Bonjour to locate and connect to the same printer.
    With the Epson connected to your wireless router, when you open Print & Scan and click the plus button to add, does the Epson appear in a small box with a heading of Nearby Printers?
    If not and a window appears showing Default, Fax, IP and Windows in the toolbar, do you see the Epson with the Default view selected?

  • Can't connect via webdav to server 4

    Since upgrading to Server.app 4, I can't connect via WebDav. I keep getting one of two connection errors:
    1., "Unable to connect to the server. Check your internet connection and server name." 
    2., "Authorization error: Please check your login and password for this server."
    I am using the same login and pwd as sftp, which works just fine. Also, I am on the same network as the server.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I've had similar issues. I haven't completely resolved them, so I went back to Mavericks/Server 3 and I'll wait for an update. For what it's worth:
    1. I was able to sign in as a different user. Both users (successful and failed) have the same permissions on the WebDave share, according to Server 4.
    2. I never was able to sign in from a Windows 7 machine. The discussion linked below explains why:

  • Can you connect via thunderbolt a mac book air 13" (2013) and a imac 21" (2013) together, using the iMac 21" as a 2nd screen

    Can you connect via thunderbolt a mac book air 13" (2013) and a imac 21" (2013) together, using the iMac 21" as a 2nd screen

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Of course. As both have Thunderbolt, it's as simple as buying a Thunderbolt cable, connect them and press Command and F2 keys on the iMac, so the iMac will be used as an external display for the MacBook Air. If you want more information, see > http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11302

  • 10.6.1: Can't resolve FQDN when connecting via WLAN / Airport Base Station

    Hi everybody,
    after hours of work and having read many helpful topics in this forum (and other) I've successfully setup a Single Signon Environment for my home office. It's a dual core macmini server running 10.6.1 and only mac clients.
    The server is connected via switch to my airport extreme base station. This airport station uses PPPoE to connect to my ISP and it has the DHCP service running, handing out the clients' IP addresses. The server and the switch have all static IP addresses.
    My issue is the following:
    Whenever I connect via wifi or vpn using my MBP, I am not able to "bind" to the server (via system preferences : users : login setting) using the FQDN. The error is "can't resolve address. -2200" Instead it only finds myserver.local - and then I am able to set up my wifi connected client.
    However, when I set up the client with the .local address I am unable to get a kerberos ticket for my users. The ticket viewer says, that it can't resolve the address for myserver.mycompany.private
    I was able to get afp or ical to work on my vpn or airport connected clients when I used the server's IP address instead of a domain name - but only with kerberos turned off and with other problems.
    I've heard that if everything is configured right, the server should show up in every clients' sidebar with its FQDN and NOT the bonjour name. Right now it shows only the bonjour name - even on the clients connected via Ethernet.
    The other strange thing is that when I log into my client system I still have to authenticate with ticket viewer in order to get my kerberos ticket. Usually Single Signon should work with the login window, right?
    I really don't know what else to do. I double checked my DNS settings and everything seems ok. I entered the FQDN of the my server in the airport stations' DHCP settings as "LDAP server" - nothing changed...
    Do I need to use the server's DHCP service instead of the airport station's DHCP? And if I do this, how to I turn off airport's DHCP? It does not seem to be possible when connected via PPPoE to my ISP.
    I am unsure what to do in order to get things to work. Anybody out there who can help?

    Hi Davidh and thanks for posting!
    I had 3 DNS entries in my client's network settings - one was the server and the other 2 were from my ISP. Removing the ISP's DNS entries and keeping the server DNS IP solved my kerberos issue. Wow!
    I'd never thought that it won't work with more than the server given as DNS entries. I'll need to check this with my iPhone later, because I had a similar issue with that device yesterday when trying to connect via VPN.
    Thanks very much!
    Still one question:
    The sidebar of my clients still don't show the server's FQDN - but only its bonjour name. Is this right? I read in another forum that the client's sidebar should show the FQDN if everything is configured right.

  • Satellite L350 - Can't switch off wireless LAN

    The wireless switch and the Fn-F8 key combo don't appear to be switching off the wireless adapter (REALTEK RTL8187B) in my Satellite L350 (Win 7 Home Premium x32).
    ConfigFree shows the correct switch status i.e. OFF when it's off and ON when it's on. And the Fn+F8 key toggles between On and Off and recognises when the switch is off or on. But no matter whether they are on or off, the wireless connection icon in the notification area always show that "connections are available" and I can always establish a wireless connection. After toggling the Fn+F8 key a few times the established connection is dropped by conections are still shown as available.
    I've updated the BIOS and REALTEK device driver to the latest versions, but the wireless adapter still appears to be always on/enabled unless I disable it via the control panel or the ConfigFree icon that's in the notification area.
    Any suggestions about what the problem might be and is there a fix?
    Also, what is supposed to happen and what notifications are you supposed to get when you switch the wirelss off - either via the switch or Fn+F8? I only recently bought the L350 to replace my ageing Toshiba Satellite A30 so am new to wireless networking and Windows 7.
    TIA

    I have a Satellite L350 purchased pre loaded with Win7 Home Premium (32) and RealTek RTL8187B adapter which also has the fault described above.
    Namely: -
    1) The front panel RF/Wireless switch lights the LED in the "On" position and turns it off in the "Off" position. The wireless connection is not affected, it stays ON.
    2) The use of the FN+F8 keys gives an error message to turn the switch "On" if it is set to "Off", then once it is "On" correctly displays the setting. With the switch set to "On" the keys will turn off the LED on the front panel. The actual connection is unaffected by these actions and stays connected at all times unless disconnected via the notification area icon.
    I initially thought this was a hardware fault and returned it to the retailers as the switch was quite sloppy. It has been returned and shows the same problem as before even though the switch has been replaced.
    Therefore, having read the contents of this board it would seem there is a software issue here.
    How do we get this resolved or what update am I missing?
    The PC was bought at the end of Dec.

  • Can't connect via Ethernet

    I have an iMac G5 iSight and have been using Airport successfully to connect to the Internet via a DW6000 satellite modem. Since I have now retired and will no longer be using a Powerbook, I decided to stop using Airport and attempted to connect via a hardwired cable from the iMac to the Modem. It refuses to work. The settings show that it has acquired the correct address from my provider and is properly connected to Direcway via DHCP. I have rebooted the modem and the computer, renewed the DHCP licence all to no avail. The information says that although the Ethernet port is active, it has an internal address and cannot be connected to the Internet.
    By the way, I was able to connect to the Internet via Airport or Ethernet with my G4 Powerbook. But I can't do it via Ethernet with the iMac.
    What can I do to get this working?
    Griff

    Problem resolved!
    I don't know what the problem was. I just tried again. This time I did not reboot the computer. I shut down the modem, attached the Ethernet cable and fired it up again and this time I was connected!
    So I really don't have an answer except that it just decided to start working.

  • Can't connect to wlan

    Hi everybody,
    for some reason my MacPro won't connect to my home network, a dsl wlan. I have 2 iPhones in there, one AppleTV, my MacbookPro, my wife's MBP, an AirPortExtreme and an AirportExpress, all doing fine (exept my wife's MBP wich gets kicked out of the network constantly, but disabling and reenabling wifi solves the problem.).
    So the network is ok. My MacPro connects to my MBP with direct c2c-network, and it connects to my iPhone via personal hotspot. So the MacPros wifi works fine as well.
    Only I can't get it to connect to my wlan. We changed provider a while ago, 2 months approx., at the beginning it worked, not well, got kicked out all the time, but ist worked. Now it tells me something like (I have to translate, so never mind the exact wording in english) "can't connect because of timed out". Something of the kind.
    Now I tried to erase the keychain for the wlan-password, didn't change a thing.
    I took out one of the devices of the network, the airport express, didn't change either.
    I saw though that my MacPro does not have an IP address. I don't know how I can tell it to have one... this might be the problem's solution.
    Anyone an idea? Anyone who had this problem before? With the old provider (and wlan router) everything was ok.
    The router is a fritz box, the provider is m-net.de
    I'm desperate... thanks for your help, and best regards from the home of the Oktoberfest - Munich.
    f

    I can't see any. I just compared with my MacBook, where it shows, but on my MacPro there is none. No IP, no IPv4 or IPv6. Strange.
    Since I'm in this home network, I suppose the addresses are assigned by the router, could this be right? Only on the router's software interface - which I access via browser and my MacBook, there is no possibility to activate a new device or anything of the kind.

  • How to build up an internet connection via WLAN?

    I am using WLAN at home with my E90. Since I changed the provider I got a DSL modem which does not connect to internet automatically. With WIN XP the internet connection is built up manually every time I start the computer (German expression is DFÜ - like in old times with your analogue modem). Now I am missing a possibility to do the same with my E90 - is there any chance enter the user name and password to get access to internet via WLAN? Thanks - even for negative answers...

    Not that I'm aware of, I have had a good look around my E90 and the only connections you can define a user name and password for are packet data connections.

  • Powerbook G4 can't connect via ethernet but connects via airport

    We have a small office network connected to an Efficient Networks DSL router that's managed by our isp. The router has 4 ports and a linksys 8 port switch is connected to one of those ports. Another D-Link wireless router/switch is connected to another port.
    2 i-macs connect without problem via ethernet cable. They are set to DHCP and get 192.xx private addresses. Both run 10.4.5. Another older imac running 9.2.2. also has no problems.
    I recently purchased a powerbook G4 and it will not connect via ethernet to the Efficient networks router. At first it was connected to the linksys, so decided to connect it direct to the Efficient Networks router. With DHCP, it acquires a 169. internet address which is self generated (i.e. no real connection). I tried to give it a static private address (talking to the isp provider). They could see the powerbook but saw all zero's (presumable mac address). By the way the Powerbook works perfectly at home connected via ethernet cable to a D-Link router connected to a cable modem so it's not a physical problem. I even checked the ethernet cable I used in the office with another computer - no problem.
    When I switch to airport in the office, the powerbook connects to the network and the internet. I get some strange warning messages showing the server's and the router's private ip addresses. I click ok, and the powerbook finds an unassigned private ip address. It's the only way it will work, but it causes problems, because I can't connect to one of the network printers. Speed also isn't great.
    Can anyone give me advise how to proceed. I am no expert on this stuff so keep it as simple as possible.
    Tks

    Tim,
    Thanks for your help. Here's what I've done before reading your e-mail. The D-Link DI-524 wireless router is connected to the Effiicent Neworks DSL router as you mentioned. One ethernet port of the EFF.Net. router is connected to the WAN port of the DI-514.
    Because I have a D-Link router at home which works flawlessly with my powerbook, I decided to connect the ethernet cable of the powerbook to the D-Link which has 4 ethernet ports. Lo and behold, the powerbook acquired a private ip address and connected to the LAN and internet!
    When I connected the powerbook direct to the Efficient Networks router, it could not communicate. I believe that there must be some software incompatibility between the powerbook and the Efficient Networks router. By connecting to the D-Link, the D-Link assigned an ip address to the powerbook, and it could connect to the server, lan, etc..
    Only problem is that I have a Brother network printer that cannot connect to the powerbook. My powerbook cannot find it on the network. Because there is a linksys switch connected to the efficient networks router's third ethernet port, maybe as you said, going through the D-Link via DHCP (when the Linksys is also acting as a DHCP server, might cause this type of problem. What do you think?
    As a final note, other imac G5's connected to the linksys switch (which then connects to the Efficient Network's router) have no problem connecting to the lan or internet and have no problem connecting to any of the printers. When I put the powerbook on that switch, I could not connect to the internet - i.e. whether connecting via the lynksys switch or direct with the efficient networks router - same results: no internet connection whether manually or via DHCP.
    So the imac G5 has no problem with the efficient networks router but the powerbook G4 hits a brick wall. The G4 likes the D-Link router. I am concerned (and I will have to check this) that if I turn off the dhcp server feature from the D-Link, that whatever software issue crops up between the powerbook and the Efficient Networks router, will rise up again, because the D-Link will act like a simple switch (just like my linksys switch), and we'll be back to square zero. In any case, no harm in trying. This may be the cause of the Powerbook not seeing that Brother printer (even though it sees another printer and other macs).
    Having spent hours reading about network problems, I think it's safe to say that macs have problems with certain routers. Why a G5 works and a powerbook G4 doesn't is beyond me, but clearly software must play a role.

  • Can i connect via vpn on a mac to a windows computer

    I know this question has probably been asked a number of times but:  Can a Mac be used to connect via a VPN connection to a Windows machine?  I need to do this to access a Windows desktop via remote access.  Have not found a way to do it yet.

    Yes, it can. Restore it on the PC; doing so on the Mac will put it in a format the PC can't use.
