Trying to connect my Sharp TV to internet through Airport

I have tried everyhing I know to connect my new Sharp TV to my home network. i run the connection on the TV and it always says '
Home Network: Pass
Internet: Fail
Then below it says Default Gateway failed to respond.
I have never had a problem connecting to our internet though network before.
Any suggestions?
This is Week 4 of trying to connect.

This seems obvious to you....but we cannot read minds.
A bit more information......like whether you are trying to connect using a wired or wireless connection would be helpful.
A model number of the TV, if available, might allow us to download a setup or installation manual. If you have a link for this, that would be even better.

Trying to connect Mac w/ OSX to Internet through LAN

I have a Mac running OSX (10.1.5) and a PC running Windows XP side to side. Only the PC is connected to the Internet.
I want my Mac to share my PC's internet. I have a router (D-Link) and two ethernet cables. Both are connected to the router (through LAN). I'm not able to get on the internet on my Mac. Is there anything I need to configure on each machine? what exacty do I type in?
also, I am new to being a Mac owner...Used them plenty, but know nothing of networking and other mac settings...very knowledgable about networking PCs.
How can I ping or get a dos-type prompt on a mac?
Thanks for ANY help.

the router is connected to a switch on which the port
where the mac is connected flashes (no connection),
when the pc is connected to it the light is solid
(and internet works). The IP is private 192.168....
If I have this right this is your setup:
|Mac
Internet>router>switch|
|WinXP
we are not at all familiar with networking Macs, but
we have extensive knowledge of networking PCs. The
switch is (i think) a 48 port patch panel and then
connected to router then cable modem (on a seven foot
rack in a guest room closet, if that tells you
anything about our extensive networking).
Yep. Q1... (you've probably tested this, but let's get it out of the way) is there a good network connection to the Mac? I can see several possible points of failure, including the patch cable from the wall, the cable in the wall, the patch cable from the patch panel to the wall, the patch panel...
Q2, assuming that the cabling is good, how is your net set up? DHCP or hard-coded IPs? Are you using IPX (not so good), NetBIOS (very NOT, repeat NOT, good for Macs running 10.1.x), or TCP/IP (very good)?
Q3... OS X 10.1.x was, erm, acceptable, but mostly in comparison to 10.0.x which was not ready for prime time. 10.2.x is much faster, and plays better with others. Is there any way that you could move the Mac to 10.2.x?
Is that what you mean by more information? Could
there be something wrong with the built in ethernet
port on the mac?
That's a distinct possibility. If it's old enough to run 10.1.x, it's old enough that the port could have got fried.
We know for certain that the built
in audio does not work.
Not good. Q4... are you sure you don't have a motherboard problem?

Can't connect to internet through Airport Express anymore

Suddenly, my PowerBook can't connect to the internet through Airport Express. Monday late afternoon--everything was fine. Put it in sleep, come back a few hours later, can't connect.
Thing is, Airport/wireless is working. Can stream audio to my home stereo.
And the DSL/modem are working. If I connect the machine via ethernet directly, I'm online.
Saw that some other users began having problems with USB/printer connections Monday. Could my problem be related?
What gives?
Any ideas?

Hello mnkyby. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
It sounds like your AirPort Express Base Station (AX) in not getting a proper IP address from your modem.
Try this ...
o Connect to the AX's wireless network, and then, run the AirPort Admin Utility.
o Go to the Internet tab.
o Note the value for IP address. (Note: Do not list it here on the forum, just note what it is.)
o Is the IP address what you would expect from your ISP or is it something like: 196.254.x.x?
If the latter, try the following ...
Modem/Router Power Recycling - Quick
o Power-off the DSL/Cable modem, AX, & computer(s); Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the DSL/Cable modem; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the AX; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s)
If this fails to get the modem to "recognize" the Internet router, then try the "Full" version.
Modem/Router Power ReCycling - Full
o Power-off the DSL/Cable modem, AX, & computer(s). (Wait at least 30 minutes. If possible, leave the modem off overnight.)
o Power-on the DSL/Cable modem; Wait at least 15 minutes.
o Power-on the AX; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s)

Trying to connect my wired PC to the wireless airport express via the wireless router.

Trying to connect my wired PC to the wireless airport express via the wireless router. TP-link wired/wireless router. Ultimate goal is to send music from iTunes on PC to wireless router, then to airport, then to reciever. The amber light is blinking. Thanks in advance for the help!

If I'm understanding right your need and your computer has wired access to your network/router, all you have to do is give your AX wireless or wired access to your network too.
Wired should be easier. Just use a network cable to connect to the router. Power up the AX and look for it on AirPort Utility, do so without changing any of your computer settings. If it's visible, then on iTunes your AX should be visible on the AirPlay icon at the bottom-right corner.
If you want to connect your AX to your router wirelessly I would suggest to reset your AX settings by pressing and holding for a few secs the reset button next to all the ports. Once it is reset, using your computer try to look for the wireless network it'll be creating, it should be something like Apple Network 4341eb. Join that network and, using the AirPort Utility, configure your AX as a network client. Go to Wireless > Wireless Mode: Join a wireless network.
Select your router wireless network from the drop-down menu, select the appropriate security and type in your password. Click update.
It'll restart and automatically join your network. Have your computer join back your router network and, again, in iTunes bottom right you should be able to see the AX speakers.
Let me know if this worked.

When I purchased my iphone and ipad last week they told me I would connect the ipad to the internet through the phone but can get niether the phone nor the ipad to see the internet?

When I purchased my iphone and ipad last week they told me I would connect the ipad to the internet through the phone but can get niether the phone nor the ipad to see the internet?

Connecting the iPad to the internet via the iPhone is done by setting up a personal HotSpot, but you have to have that supported by your carrier and have to have established the account to do so.
On the iPhone, Settings > General > Network > Set Up Personal Hotspot

Lost internet through airport

Somehow I have managed to lose the ability to connect to the internet through my airport extreme base station. In the system preferences I am told that I am connected to the network and that I am connected to the internet through Airport. Also, the PC that shares my network has no trouble joining the net but cannot connect to the internet.
I can reach the internet using the ethernet cable directly out of the modem.
In trying to achieve a solution I have altered many things in many places and am now very lost.
Can I start from scratch? If so how?
Help
Dave

Before starting from scratch, try simply resetting your connection. Connect the modem to the Base Station's ethernet WAN port (the port labelled with the "circle of dots" icon). Pull power to both the Base Station and the modem for at least five minutes. Then plug the modem into power and wait a minute. Then plug the Base Station into power and wait a minute. Restart your computers. Then try internet access again.
If you contine to have problems please post a new discussion topic in the Airport Extreme discussion forum rather than this forum.

I am trying to set up using my printer wirelessly through airport. I have a macbook and my husband can print wirelessly from his Macbook Pro but I can't. What do I have to do to set mine up? The printer is an Epson R2400

I am trying to set up using my printer wirelessly through airport. I have a macbook and my husband can print wirelessly from his Macbook Pro but I can't. What do I have to do to set mine up? The printer is an Epson R2400

Is there a cd that came with the printer?
If so, put in the cd and that will help you set it up.
If not, I think macs come with a program that helps you set up printers.
Also make sure that the printer is connected to the same network.
Make sure the printer is on.

Mac connected but PC can't connect to internet through Airport Extreme

When I was using a dial-up connection everything worked fine on both computers but since I changed to a PPPoE / Ethernet connection my PC using Windows XP can't connect to the internet although is connected to the Airport with excellent signal.
In System Preferences>Network I have Connect using PPPoE option checked so I can't see my airport in the Airport Admin Utility. Apple Talk is Inactive.
In System Preferences>Sharing>Internet: Internet sharing is Off and there's a text that it can't be turned on "because there are no ports available over which to share your connection"

I understand, but for some reason, that I'm trying to
figure out, when I uncheck the PPPoE option on my
computer and my base station appears in the Admin
utility, I loose my internet connection on the
macintosh although the Network Status says that I'm
connected to the internet via Airport...
You will need to configure the Airport to connect via PPPoE.

Can't connect to internet through Airport network

Previously - worked
Internet: DSL
Network: via Airport Extreme
Computers: 3 (G4 Tower, PowerBook G4, Xbox360)
Setup: I ran the ethernet cable out of the modem into the Aiport Extreme. Then I ran another ethernet cable into a router which then split the signal into two lines -- one going to the tower and one going to the Xbox. The laptop connected wirelessly. This worked using DHCP assigning multiple IP addresses to all on the network and indeed the two computers surfed the net with ease and I had no problems connecting or staying on Xbox Live.
Currently - doesn't work
Internet: Cable (Charter)
Network: same
Computers: same
Problem: I recently switched from DSL to Cable internet for faster speed. Here is what i found: When i connect the ethernet cable directly into the tower from the modem i can access the internet. If i connect the ethernet cable directly into the PowerBook G4 i get nothing. If i try to connect the ethernet cable to the Airport from the modem i get nothing as well. At first all i thought i had to do was change the account settings from that of the DSL to that of the Cable internet -- only there are no account settings for the Cable internet. I literally just plugged in the cable and was ready to go. I have tried resetting my airport to get rid of my previous [DSL] settings and redoing the Airport Setup Assistant to no avail.
G4 Tower, PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

ok so i unplugged my modem for a few minutes and then plugged the ethernet into the airport and turned the modem back on. now i can get internet on both my laptop and my tower. that works, thanks!
an odd aside tho is that before, when i was connecting through PPPoE, the laptop would automatically connect to my network (regardless of how many networks the airport card was picking up). now that i have the airport set to just connect via ethernet i have to manually log onto my network every time. is there a setting i'm forgetting about that enables automatic log in or is this just the case with connecting via ethernet?
here is the next problem, though. i bought a wireless adapter for my 360 and it cannot detect my network. it detects two other different networks that are in my complex but not mine. i have no idea if this is an airport issue or a 360 issue as powerbooks just automatically detect an airport base station. i have tried testing it in the same room as the airport with no luck. the only way i have connected to Xbox Live so far was to hard line an ethernet cable to the 360, shut the modem off, turn it back on and connect that way. if anyone knows anything about the 360 or has had similar problems trying to get their 360 up and running wirelessly through an airport please let me know

Can't connect imac to internet through Airport Express

Hello
I am trying to connect my new imac (2.4Ghz,OS X 10.5) to the internet through my Airport Express (v6.3) but have encountered some problems.
The set up goes like this:
Cable Internet <wired> TP-LINK Router <wired> AE <wireless> imac
The internet is coming from my landlord on the bottom floor of my apartment so I can't change the router.
The router is assigning a static IP to my AE (192.168.5.101).
I am using WEP 128 bit security.
I have set the AE through Airport Utility to act as a Bridge.
On the imac I set the Network preferences to manually select an IP address (192.168.5.110) which is out of the range of the Router (192.168.5.101-108).
The AE connects and lights up green and the imac recognises the AE but I still cannot access the internet...
I have also tried to wirelessly connect my PC laptop to the AE using other static addresses but I still can't connect to the internet.
Can anyone please help??
Regards
Starwolfgang

Hello Starwolfgang. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
The router is assigning a static IP to my AE (192.168.5.101).
Are you sure that this provided IP address is static? If so, you also need to note the provided DNS server(s) IPs as well.
On the imac I set the Network preferences to manually select an IP address (192.168.5.110) which is out of the range of the Router (192.168.5.101-108).
Since you configured your AX in bridge mode, your computer will be dependent on the NAT (& possibly DHCP) services provided by your apartment's router. Assuming that your landlord doesn't filter out any IP addresses and that the IP address you set is valid, you need to compare your iMac AirPort's DNS server address settings with that provided by your apartment's router to be sure they match.
Finally, assuming that your apartment provides you with an Ethernet jack, if you connect your iMac directly (via Ethernet) can it access the Internet?

Problems connecting to internet through airport extreme

Hi everyone I am tyring to connect to the internet. I have Charter Digital at the highest speed. When I connect directly through the cable modem using DHCP i can connect to the internet just fine, but when I use the Airport using assing multiple IP addresses i cannot get the internet. When I run diagonostics, Everything works fine up to ISP after that (internet, Server) cannot connect. I've read through the boards and found nothing, so I could really use some help. I have the CAT 5 cable from the modem going to the WAN plug in the Airport.
Thanks for any help you can give

Thank you - some of the materials linked to that may have helped isolate my problem. Unfortunately, nothing's solved it yet. Pinging the Apple IP address gives me: No route to Host, with 100% packet loss on all attempts. I'm using an Airport Express card in a 1GHz G4 eMac running OSX 10.3.9, trying to connect to a Linksys BEFCMUH4 wireless broadband gateway modem/router. As stated above, all 4 ethernet ports are functioning correctly. All initial diagnostics on my end show there's a connection. Further diagnostics and attempts to get online show a lack of a connection but don't give any detail as to where it's encountering difficulty (or, if a traceroute shows something I'm not qualified to decipher it). It's even told me it's unable to configure succesfully. I've made sure the router itself is configured so there is no password necessary (it checks for an automatically logged number from my computer) and it shouldn't be locking me out from there (I hope). I was told running Airport Express with a non-Airport wireless router would be fine, but is it possible I was misinformed? The setup procedures available to help facilitate this all assume there's an Apple AirPort to search for and don't turn up my current router when they scan, leaving me with nothing to select from in that stage of the setup, and thus I cannot proceed. Am I doomed? Are there any gracious, exceedingly capable souls out there with the time and expertise to assist me? I'll be very grateful if someone can get me past this hurdle (I need to go wireless so I can get my air conditioner installed).

Lost connection to internet through airport

My Mac at home is configured to a timecapsule and connected through airport wifi. The Time capsule is connected via cable to modem and out via cable to Internet. Up until today everything is fine. started up and i have lost connection to the internet.
Network Preferences is showing that Airport has a self asssigned IP address and cannot connect to internet. The time capsule lights are showing green, as do the Modem, neither are reporting problems.
I have tried all of the "first Aid configurations" i.e. switch off/on etc, also tried a couple of ideas from forums, nothing works. I can connect the Mac directly to the modem via cable and access the internet.
As an aside, My iphone has also lost connectivity through home wifi.
It would appear from other forums that this is a growing problem, however not much in the way of resolution. Any Ideas????

I am trying to connect my pc, iphone, ipad to a airport but it can not see it.

i am trying to connect to a airport with my pc but when scanning it does not see the airport - any ideas?

Not sure, but try these.
Disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the Sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut Off. To power up hold the Sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time (for about 10-15 seconds) until the Apple logo appears (ignore the red slider), then let go of the buttons.

Can I connect Ipad 2 WiFi to Internet through 3G Android Bluetooth Phone?

Can I connect my IPad 2 Wifi to internet through 3G Android Phone's Bluetooth?

Not Bluetooth. You can connect if the phone has tethering/internet sharing. The phone has to put out an SSID for other devices to connect to. Like a wifi signal.
