Want wireless music, but wired internet

is there a way to use the airport express for my music, but then run an ethernet cable stright to my computer, and use them both at the sametime. (to use the wireless music i have had to switch to wireless airport, then the internet doest work w/ the ethernet connected to my computer)

"i need the computer to be connected not wirelessly, but to the computer"
I am not sure what this means?
If you get a cheap router, you can connect via ethernet. Your express will join the network wirelessly.

    I get wireless connection but my internet does not work on my ipad 2

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Windows 7 Laptop Has Wireless Access but No Internet Connection

    Dia duit!
    Okay, I have been called to the rescue concerning my mother's HP laptop again, and for once I cannot for the life of me resolve the issue.  The machine is running Windows 7 because friends don't let friends run Windows 8.  She has a wireless network
    connection, but no internet access when she is in Normal Mode.  However, she does have access in Safe Mode with Networking.  I brought my own laptop over when I came to visit, and it connects to the wireless with no trouble.  My mother has tried
    three different web browsers-- Firefox, Chrome, and IE-- so it doesn't seem to be a browser issue.
    WHAT I'VE TRIED THUS FAR:
    Naturally, given that it worked in Safe Mode, my first thought was a possible malware infection.  In Safe Mode with Networking, I ran Malwarebytes and Combofix.  Sixteen infections were found and removed, but none of them were particularly nasty. 
    Afterward I used CCleaner's registry scanner to take care of several registry issues.  I then completely shut down and rebooted the computer back into Normal Mode.  The same issue still persisted.
    I then removed and added the wireless network connection under Network and Sharing Center>Manage Wireless Networks.  The laptop still had no internet access.  I toggled the wireless switch off and back on.  No dice.  In desperation
    I finally reset the IP and DNS (cmd /c "ipconfig /release" and cmd /c "ipconfig /renew.")  It still didn't fix the problem.
    I have never seen this issue when one of the above measures didn't resolve it, so I would be extremely grateful for any advice.

    Hello,
    A few things to try:
    1.  Did you check Device Manager to see if the wireless adapter is listed and is enabled?
    2.  Did you try to un-install the wireless adapter and have the laptop scan for new hardware?
    3.  Is there an icon in the systray for the wireless network connection and if so, what is its state, bars or no bars with the "No" symbol?
    4.  Is Windows or another utility controlling wireless connections?
    5.  Can you hook it up via a wired connection and check HP's site for updated drivers?

  • Can connect to wireless network but no internet access

    I have a PC that runs on Windows Vista and a wireless network using Airport Extreme. My PC can connect to the wireless network but I cannot access the internet. Windows Network Diagnostics states that 'A problem with your network router or broadband modem might be preventing an internet connection'. There should be no problem with my modem as I can access internet using my powerbook. When I run airport utility on my PC, there is an error message that states that 'An error occurred while trying to access the Apple wireless device. Make sure your network connection is valid and try again', 'error -6753'.

    I am glad you brought this up. I am having the same difficulty. I run an iMac OS X 10.5.6 with an intel processor and a parallel system to get me on the Windows side. When I try to access the internet using my Airport extreme I cannot access any sites and the internet explorer page pops up with "The page cannot be displayed and sends me to try the diagnose connection problems on the toolbar method. However I can see my base station and all looks fine with the information there. I can also access the internet from my mac side of the computer. It would be nice to use the Windows side to gain access to the net because I have programs for the windows side that need updating. Anyone out there have any suggestions?

  • I have wireless signal, but no internet Connection

    I have a wireless router, and an iBook G4, and so does my husband. I get wireless signal and internet, however my husband's ibook only get wireless signal and not internet. He has always had problems with the internet signal on his wireless. Please help!!
    Thanks

    I would start by reseating the Airport card. Here is directions on how to access the Airport card. The airport card has to be seated correctly to get a good signal and reliable connection. Make sure the connection is pushed in completely.
    Here is another link to install the Airport card. Look at how far they have the connector and compare it to yours. That might help.

  • Wirelessly Connected But No Internet!

    Hi,
    I have run into my second problem trying to connect this new Airport Base Station.
    All my wired computers have internet connection but my laptop connecting wirelessly has none!
    It is connected to my wireless network and the connection has perfect signal. I am not using WEP so I can't see what the problem would be!
    If anyone can offer assistance, it would be appreciated !
    Thanks,
    slevytam

    I have been having problems with my MacbookPro connecting to the internet ever since I come on to Verizon FIOS service. The service comes with a 802.11G router as part of the package. it is set up with WEP security. It often takes me 4 or 5 tries for the airportin my Mac to recognize and connect to the router. I have not ad any problems connecting to public routers in places like Caribou coffee or Pannera restaurants nor have I had problems connecting to restricted networks with passwords (specifically the National Science Foundation internal network). Last night I downloaded the latest upgrade to my airport software from Apple and the result was no connection at all. Later today I have been able to connect but I am concerned as to what the problem might be. Another (windows) computer in the same household has no problem connecting.
    Does anyone have any thoughts on thisw?
    Thanks for any input.

  • Combine wireless and hard-wired internet?

    I currently use a cable modem, connected to my iMac via ethernet. I'm considering buying a new laptop, which I'd like to have wireless internet capability. I'd rather not "convert" the iMac to wireless. If I buy an Airport Express and connect it to the cable modem via USB, will that allow the laptop to have wireless access when I need it, but not screw up the iMac's hard-wired access?
    FYI, I don't anticipate a need to create a wireless network between the two Macs, I'm just interested in each having internet access.

    Hi, that looks like the wrong one, only one Ethernet port for the Modem as far as I can see...
    http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/specs.html
    It looks like you need an Airport Extreme to connect both Wireless, (802.11n), & Ethernet at the same time...

  • Can connect to wireless network but no internet?

    Ok, I'm sure this is answered somewhere, but I'm tired.
    At this point I'm not even sure if it can be done. But... I tried to connect to my mother's wireless internet using my Airport Extreme. I connected to the wireless but was unable to access the internet, or email. I tried manually setting the IP address, DHCP, router, DNS etc. But to no avail. It kept saying "Airport is connected to wireless ..., but it has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the internet". I got it to accept the new IP address and finally it said " Airport is connected to wireless..., and is connected to the internet" but I still could not get on. It does say on her computer that it is protected by a key. But I used her password to get on and it recognized it? But her password was not the key.
    I thought that I could connect to any wireless network with the password?
    Can this even be done?
    Thanks
    A

    Duane,
    Thanks for the response. I did not see anything about MAC filtering enabled. It did say encryption was enabled. All I foud was the IP address, router, DNS etc. It is a WEP password and it did accept the password to log on to the network. It's Time Warner and she has a PC. I tried everything, set up new location. I'm going to try to log on to my friends wireless network and see if I can do so there. If my memory serves me right, the last time I tried to log on to a wireless network it didn't work either. Also my mother does not know much about it, someone set it up for her and she is one to not understand these "new fangled things". So...

  • Bt hub wireless ok but no internet on my PC via Et...

    I can connect to the internet wirelessly to laptop, iPhone etc but get no internet connection via Ethernet on my PC? I have connected the Ethernet to the laptop and it works fine, just won't work on my PC? I have seen that the new version of Mcafee virus protection may cause the problem and have uninstalled but no good. I get a connection if I do a system restore but drops out again after a few minutes. Any suggestions gratefully received. Thanks.

    If connecting by Ethernet cable works OK on your laptop it would appear that the problem is with your PC and not the Homehub or the connection.
    What operating system is your computer using?
    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 address and DNS server address automatically.
    Once done try and connect to internet.

  • IMac connects to Airport wireless network but not internet

    Hi, I'm trying to set up my sister's iMac (education version) and haven't been able to get it to connect to the internet via the Airport Base Station. If it makes a difference, the ABS is an older model from about 4-5 years ago, I think. (Not extreme.)
    The ABS is able to successfully dial-up and connect to her ISP.
    The iMac displays the connect time, and the Internet Connect application shows for the AirPort Status that the iMac is connected to the network and that it is "Connected to the Internet via the Modem..." (followed the by the connection time.) However, the iMac still won't connect to the internet.
    The wireless network seems to work okay. I'm able to access the iMac via my PowerBook and share files.
    My PowerBook is able to connect to the internet wirelessly via the same active ISP dial-up connection via the ABS.
    I tried duplicating the same network information from the PowerBook, but that still didn't work. As far as I can tell, the settings in the PowerBook are the same as in the iMac.
    I'm tapped out of ideas right now. Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!
    12" iBook G3 DualUSB   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   Born June 2001

    Finally got it to work.
    In Airport Admin Utility --> Configure -->Access Control there were two Airport ID's listed there. I didn't add them, and I don't know where they came from, so I deleted them to see what would happen. After the base station restarted I connected to the ISP, and the iMac has been able to connect to the web ever since.

  • Constant Wireless Drop, but Wired Ok (300N)

    Hello all. I have a 300N wireless router (v 1.1). While hard connected, everything works fine. While connected wirelessly, I have problems. Unfortunately wired connectivity isn't an option in my house or I'd go with that.
    Basically anytime I'm attempting to "up the load" on the connection for any reason it kicks. If I'm trying to load streaming video, or start a download, or even play some online games like WoW, the connection drops for just a second--enough to kill the download/attempt to connect. Often if I refresh the page/content the download starts again without a hitch.
    I've disabled the Windows Zero Config. I've ensured the only network monitor is Linksys. I've made sure that I'm set to infrastructure so only my home network is used. All drivers are up to date, all firmware is up to date.
    This problem happens on both computers in my network, under identical circumstances. Both are XP machines, both have the Wireless N adapters. The router is about 40 feet away, and I have no problems with connectivity under "normal" circumstances.
    Please, any advice would be appreciated. It's been a year of hair-pulling over this, and I'm about done.

    Well try upgrading the firmware of the router & keep on holding tightly
    the reset button in such a way that power light is blinking on the
    router & then do a complete network power cycle i.e., unplug the power
    cables from the modem & from the router & then plug in the power cable
    to the modem first once all the lights are solid green you could plug
    in the power cable to the router & check out it will definately work!!
    Open the setup page of router using 192.168.1.1 then put in the
    password as admin...all you need to do is do the wireless settings such
    as Radio Band Frequency to Standard 20 MHZ frequency,channel to 11.
    Also,the advanced wireless settings to Beacon Interval=50,Frag
    thres=2306 & Rts thres=2307 & then uncheck a Block Anonymous Internet
    Requests & it will definately work!!!

  • Conneced to wireless router but no internet access via wireless

    I don't recall the physical connections being directly attached to the router.  The router in question is a Linksys WRT54G/GL/GS.  My initial thought was since we rolled out Voip fairly recently one of our phones might have ganked the IP address, but that is not the case.  Each of them have their own IP addresses and I don't see any conflicts.  I am also able to ping the router and log into it remotely from my office, which is in a different city. Could it possibly be a firmware issue?

    Hi Everyone,
    One of my offices' routers is broadcasting but has no internet access.  The office does have internet if you hardwire in but outside of that nothing has worked so far in regards to the WiFi.  I have power cycled the router and modem to no avail and DHCP is enabled but no one can get online via WiFi.  It seemed to just up and decide one morning that it was not going to allow internet access.

  • Wireless connected but no internet connection on MacBook Pro

    I Have recently purchased a new MacBook Pro. I updated the software to OS X Yosemite 10.10 a couple of weeks ago and had no initial issues connecting to my home internet (However I could not get onto public hotspots which I was told was due to a comparability issue with my updated Safari). Now, I cannot connect at all to my home internet. I have tried re-starting the router, re-installing the wireless network, clearing history and website data and restarting the computer. All other Apple products (iPhone and iPad) are connecting as normal.
    Aa advice much appreciated - thanks!

    Hi Carolyn - Thank you for responding, I appreciate the help!
    We have a tower, and I don't see an on/off button.  Should I just unhook the power cord from the tower?  We also have the phone line hooked to the tower, should I unhook as well?  I'm assuming the PC is off before I do this?
    Then, turn the computer back on?
    Thank you!
