Visual internet connection, but cannot get on the internet? Help:(

Hi people.
My wife bought me an Ipod touch. This is a long time ago, because I cannot use it with my wi-fi connection home. I took it with me to my parents, and it worked without any problems there. I took it with me to my place, and I got the same problems.
It says that I got connection and I have the Wi-fi connection icon, but I'm not connected to the net.
I've tried to connect many times. I've deleted and restarted the thing. I've looked at the IP adress, and it started with 169. I've tried to look at this discussion board, but haven't found any help.
I'm getting quite desperate, and I would like to get some help. Since I am quite a beginner, I would like a simple answer:) But any help will do great.
Thank you

I've looked at the IP adress, and it started with 169.
This means you aren't actually connected to the Internet; only to your router.
An easy first attempt at a fix is to turn your router off and then on again.

    Hello bigblue8
    Check out the following articles for troubleshooting access to the iTunes Store. The first one will probably get you started enough to get it taken care of. If it does not the follow up article should definitely solve it for you.

  • Connected to router but cannot get on the internet

    Hi,
    I have connected my sons laptop to home hub 3 and it is showing connected to router but when we try to connect toonternet we get error message,have tried connecting to lots of different web pages without any joy.
    Laptop will connectto other wireless when we are not at home. Really not sure where we are going wrong.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    Couple of things to check:
    1) Are you using the wireless passkey that is on the Homehub label to log on with?
    2) It could be that your computer has IPv6 selected. Try disconnecting it as follows:
    Select Start
    In the search field type.ncpa.cpl and press enter.
    In the new window right click on your wireless network connection and select properties
    In “This connection uses the following items” section remove the tick beside Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) then press OK
    Left click on Internet Protocol IPv4, click properties . Check the options to obtain IP addres and DNS server address automatically.
    Once done try and connect to internet.

  • Wifi connect, still cannot get on the internet

    I have read all the infromation that has been poseted. I went into settings 1. general, 2. reset, 3. reset network setting, 4. retyped my password. It says that it is connect but when I go to safari it states it is not connected to internet. I hope I can get some help....

    I went through something similar after that last software update and subsequent fix, I had some success with the network reset but still had problems. I finally went and did the complete restore. Wala! almost everything worked much better except for the very quick battery drain. I fixed that by making sure and turning off the wi-fi after every session and making sure any songs I was listening too in I-Tunes were stopped. Amazing difference! My battery lasts about a week now with daily use. Apparently the Touch will keep playing songs until the playlist is finished unless you manually stop it (I have big ones with dozens of songs), and I may be wrong but I think the wi-fi is always searching for a signal even when it's off. The restore was pretty easy. Hope this helps.

  • TS1717 but I am o9n the internet now, but I am on the internet now.  How do I reconnect?

    the dialogue box says there is no internet connection
    but I am on the internet now.  How do I reconnect?

    Settings > iTunes & App Stores > tap your Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region
    If you find that it is set to the correct region, log out of your iTunes Store account, restart your iPad, and sign into your account again.
    Hope this helps.

  • My airport extreme (generation 5) was set up using wifi and has worked flawlessly (on macbook pro 2 iphones and window 7 HP pc)until recently. I have reset to factory defaults over and over but still cannot get on the internet. Any suggestions?

    My airport extreme (generation 5) was set up using wifi and has worked flawlessly (on macbook pro 2 iphones and window 7 HP pc)until recently. I have reset to factory defaults over and over but still cannot get on the internet. However I can then take my DSL cord and insert it in a different Ethernet port other than the WAN port and I can get internet on my Mac and iphones but only wifi on my husband's PC.  I hate to spend another $179 if this is just something I'm doing wrong. Please help

    I'm having a bit of trouble confirming that the ZyXEL is a combination modem & wireless-N router. If it is, then you really won't get any advantages of using the 802.11g AirPort.
    If the range of your ZyXEL is limited, you may find that doing either or both of the following will help: 1) Move the ZyXEL so that it is higher vs. lower in the room, that is away from any closed areas or placed in a metal cabinet, and 2) Changing radio channels. The latter is especially important in you live in an area where there are a number of competing Wi-Fi.
    A good utility to find out, is iStumbler. You would use this to find these other Wi-Fi and find which have the strongest signal value. Those that do, you would also want to note which channel they are operating on, and then, change yours to one that is at least 3-5 channels away. So, for example, if you find strong ones on channels 1 & 6, change yours to 11.

  • Firefox will not start. Have error message "Failed (unknown reason)". Now I cannot get to the Internet

    I was browsing and was asked if I wanted to update Firefox. I clicked yes. Thought it loaded, but now I cannot get to the internet at all. Now when I attempt to open Firefox and click on HELP, it gives me a Downloading Firefox 3.6.7 - but it will not connect.
    == This happened ==
    Just once or twice

    If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select "No Proxy" if the default "Use the system proxy settings" setting doesn't work.

  • Have one WiFi signal into the apartment for my Air, and another wifi signal for my 5c phone plan. Both from the same provider. Expensive. Is there a way to 'combine' WiFi signals so I pay only for one, but can get on the Internet with my Air?

    Have one WiFi signal into the apartment for my Air, and another wifi signal for my 5c phone plan. Both from the same provider. Expensive. Is there a way to 'combine' WiFi signals so I pay only for one, but can get on the Internet with my Air?

    Roamingnome, thanks for your response. Although I have been a Bell (Canada) customer for my WiFi signal for years, the 5c and its necessary mobility plan, is very recent. Some years ago, Bell supplied its own ‘router’ for my computer, and claimed that it was possible to get their WiFi signal only with the router they supplied. When I recently received the 5c, I wondered if the plan it requires, which is within the much wider, overall Bell zone, could be used somehow to get my Air online - some sort of tethering? - that allows me to give up the Air WiFi service and router all together, but still get the Air connected. Here in Canada, Bell Mobility and other Bell services are very separate. Any suggestions appreciated.

  • WRT54GS and MAC OSX "has internet connection, but cannot load page"

    Ok, I have skimmed through the threads here and the FAQ and still am having troubles. I amt trying to connect a MacbookPro to this wireless router. I have had it connected before which adds to my frustration. I ran all the system diagnostics and come to a point where it says, "This device has an internet connect but cannot load __________. Make sure you have the address typed in correctly." My MAC picks up the router signal, but in the diagnostics it goes as follows. AirPort - Yes Airport Settings - Yes Network Settings - Yes ISP - Yes Internet - No Server - No Please, any help is very appreciated.

    Also tried the factory reset and starting from scratch and nothing...

    Check to make sure cellular data is not disabled in settings. If it's on, try re-setting the phone. If that doesn't fix it, call AT&T.
