Unable to connect to internet with cable modem

I have a Imac about 2yrs old. Was running beautifully until lately. My modem shows all solid lights but for some reason it is unable to connect. Did all the things like rebooting, takng out the power cord on my modem letting rest a minutes. Changed the setting to manual from DHCP. Changed it back the other way.
Can someone help me,

Now when you plug your iBook directly into the modem, the internet works. Correct? Which Airport do you have? Try resetting your Airport. Below are some more links that should be useful...
Knowledge Base Document #106858 is the Airport Troubleshooting Guide
Knowledge Base Document #107451 on Resetting the Airport Extreme Base Station
Knowledge Base Document #106602, which explains How to Reset the Airport Base Station (Dual Ethernet)

Knowledge Base Document #166602 troubleshoots I Don't See My Airport Network
I didn't know what Airport you had, so I included all of them. Select your model and try reseting it. If worse comes to worse, just do a Factory Settings Reset. You will have to configure it like you just took it out of the box. I have found that this usually fixes most AirPort problems.

    Ok..So you mean still cannot accessing the website with Internet connection? Try to use nslookup in command prompt to check whether can resolve domain name correctly. Also make sure you can ping the router's LAN IP from computer.
    If not, you can try to use the following DNS servers from OpenDNS.com:
    208.67.220.220
    208.67.222.222
    Hope helps..

  • Trouble connecting Cisco router with cable modem for Internet purposes

    So I am requesting help from the Cisco community on this issue as the cable company states there equipment is working fine.  At all my facilities I have a guest Internet service setup through a local Internet provide to provide Internet services to the residents and guests.  I have the cable modem usually a Motorola SBG6580 or a SMC 8014 (both provided by cable company) connected to my router on a FE or GE interface.  I am using static IPs and using the cable modem just as a modem (bridge mode).  Over the past several months these connections have just stopped working.  I have not made any drastic changes to my router configs; however, the cable company has updated the firmware on these modems.  I am wondering if that could affected how the modem and router talk.  I was told by the cable company that the modem sees the Cisco router but that the port is inactive.  My router shows the port is active and traffic passing.  Does anyone have any ideas that could point where the problem lies?  I will post a basic config to one that currently does not work.  I am using a VRF to route a certain group out, using NAT.  Please let me know if I need to post additional info.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Unable to connect to internet with my WRT54G router

    I had no problem until a few days ago.  I have it under a secured mode and wanted to unsecure it temporarily.  I got into the 192.168.2.1  and clicked the security tab and got a clock that never seemed to come back to i closed the window.  I went back into internet explorer and could not get into the internet.  I get a popup in lower right saying  Local Area connection.  This connection has limited or no connectivty.  You might not be able to access the internet or some resources.  For more information click this message.   
    Then I get
    Windows could not finis repra the problem because the following actin can not be completed.  Renewing your IP address. 
    I do a setup and get a message
    Unable to connect to the router
    I try pinging the 192.168.1.1  and it times out.
    I do a diagostic and 
    HTTP Error 12007  connecting to www.microsoft.,com  shows up many times.
    I have an Actiontec 701 DSL modem.  I can get into the internet using that only.
    I've tried resetting the router, I've done   what appears to be a firmware upgrade (lights blink etc),  I've tried different power up sequences,  I've tried re-booting.
    What more can I try?

    As of now you are not able to login to your router setup page, and you are getting an error message "Limited or no Connectivity". First you can try is Unplug the Power from your router, wait for 1 min and reconnect the power to your router and check if you connected to the router or still you are getting the same error message.
    If still the same problem persist then Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...

  • E1000 won't connect to internet through cable modem

    I just switched internet providers and now have a cable modem. The internet works when I have it plugged directly into my computer. My wireless card recognizes and connects to my E1000, but the E1000 won't connect to the internet even though the ethernet cable is plugged into the correct ports. The cable provider left because it's obviously a problem with the router itself.
    I've tried all the usual tricks--resetting the modem, resetting the router, resetting the computer, etc. Unfortunately, another problem I discovered in the midst of all this is that I no longer have Cisco Connect installed on my computer, and I have somehow managed to lose the CD for it.
    Anyone have any suggestions?

    Suggestion:
    1. Download the Cisco Connect software from the Cisco website (click HERE)
    2. Connect the router, modem and hardwired the laptop to the router as well
    3. Reset the router
    4. Run the Cisco Connect software

  • Can't connect to internet, Motorola cable modem seems to freeze

    I have had this problem more and more fequently the past three or four weeks: I'm connected to the internet by ethernet through a motorola cable modem (SB5101). As long as the PC activity light on the modem is rapidly flashing amber things are fine. As soon as the activity light goes solid amber with no flashing I can no longer connect to the internet or send or receive mail. During one of these "freezes" when I check network status in the network pane of system preferences the light beside ethernet is yellow and the message says-"Built in ethernet is currently active. Built in ethernet has a self assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the internet." When I check when my connection is working I get a green light and this message "Built in ethernet is currently active and has the IP address 70.44.etc. etc.(not sure if I should make the whole IP address public or not)You are connected to the internet through built in ethernet." I also notice when I check the Built in ethernet under network in sytem preferences that the IP address changes depending on whether the modem seems frozen or not. When disconnect the power to the modem and reconnect, I notice that within about two minutes the IP address changes and I can get back online again. Or at least I could. last time I did this the IP address did not change and I couldn't get back online. Now I'm using my iBook connected via ehternet, which is working fine for now (past 15 minutes). When I first plugged the iBook into the ethernet (I normally connect to the iBook through a snow airport, which I've disconnected to try to isolate this problem) I got this message(with an exclamation in a stop sign)-"IP configuration- 70.44.53.etc in use by 00:01:50:23:3e:c2 DHCP server24.229.54.226". I clicked through the box, and the iBook is still connected to the internet and working. I have contacted Motorola tech support, and it seems the modem is OK. I will contact my cable company next, but I don't have high hopes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for your reply to my post. I was able to get back on the internet with the G4 using your suggestion, but the modem continues to freeze, whether connected to the iBook or the G4, using ethernet or airport. I will contact my ISP.

  • Unable to connect to internet with hp laptop using xfinity router/modem

    Hi,I have a hp pavilion computer model dv9910us with windows vista hom premium OS.  I have an xfinity wireless gateway device modem/router.  I have had this at another location and it worked using verizon with a separate modem and router.  I also tried it at a xfinity location with a separate modem and router and it worked.  I got a separate wireless adapter and installed that and disabled the atheros ar5007 adapter in the device manager.  will that atheros 2011 adapter work with this model computer using the windows vista home premium os.  If so, could I leave the ar5007 disabled and install the 2011 to make sure it's ok before uninstalling the ar5007.  I'm really a novice and just stumbling my way through this.  Any help is appreciated.

    Hi: You should enable the atheros wireless card, and install this driver.  It will have no effect on the other one you are using. http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?sp4ts.oid=5060881&swItemId=ob_108905_1&swEnvOid=4059# Then shut down the PC, remove the usb adapter, reboot, and see if you can connect via the atheros card.

  • Connecting to Internet with speedtouch modem

    Have established satisfactory connection with G5 but would occasionally like to switch to G3. However, Speedtouch is not included in the Services list under "modem" in Network preferences.
    Assistance would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Sunday morning blues!! For some reason when I connect
    to my airport express it disables my internet
    access....???
    The problem you have is that you can't have two network connections (the USB one and the Airport) active at the same time.
    Can anybody help??
    The solution though is as follows.
    System Preferences > Sharing > Internet
    Share your USB internet connection via Airport.
    This configures the Mac as a software base station.
    Re-configure the Airport Express as a client for this Mac based wireless network.
    You will then have an active internet connection and be able to print wirelessly and use AirTunes.
    Personally I would recommend you replace your USB modem with an ethernet (wireless) modem instead.

  • Unable to connect to internet with iPod Touch

    Hello,
    I received an iPod Touch for Christmas but cannot connect to my wireless network at home.  I have spent a lot of time talking to Apple Techs and they tell me that I need to update the firmware of my router.  My router is an Actiontec MI424WR.  When I attempt to connect, the iPod says it "connects" to my SSID but when I launch the browser, it says "cannot open page because the server stopped responding."   The IP adddress on the iPod starts with "169" but Apple says it should be "192."  Apple says the router needs to be updated with newer firmware.  Can anyone direct me as to how I can update the firmware for this router?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

    I have the same router that you have. In my house we have a 1st gen and a 2nd gen iPod Touch as well as a 1st gen iPhone and 2 2nd gen iPhones that all connect to the Verizon router. I did have to redo the settings on the 2nd gen iTouch several times before it would work. I do not know if I was fat fingering the WEP or what but once it started woking on xmas morning it has been fine since.
    Just go thru and triple check your WEP key and make sure that you are entering it in correctly and you should be fine.

  • Unable to connect to internet with ipod 4G

    I am using my home wi-fi and get as far as the password, then after a few secs it tells me that it cannot connect and the only option is then to 'dismiss'?

    - Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Try:
    -- Reseting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    -- Powering off and then back on your router
    -- Resetting network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Rest Network Settings

    Hello,
    Though all of these steps may or may not be needed, I'm including them all.
    Make a New Location, Using network locations in Mac OS X ...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2712
    10.5, 10.6, 10.7 & 10.8…
    System Preferences>Network, top of window>Locations>Edit Locations, little plus icon, give it a name.
    10.5.x/10.6.x/10.7.x instructions...
    System Preferences>Network, click on the little gear at the bottom next to the + & - icons, (unlock lock first if locked), choose Set Service Order.
    The interface that connects to the Internet should be dragged to the top of the list.
    If using Wifi/Airport...
    Instead of joining your Network from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed.
    For 10.5/10.6/10.7/10.8, System Preferences>Network, unlock the lock if need be, highlight the Interface you use to connect to Internet, click on the advanced button, click on the DNS tab, click on the little plus icon, then add these numbers...
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    (There may be better or faster DNS numbers in your area, but these should be a good test).
