Wi-fi is working Why can't I connect to internet using DSL Modem?

Just bought Airport Express. I am hooked to DSL through ATT modem. I've gotten the steady green light on the Airport, but the Airport is not connecting to the modem. The Mac shows that Wi Fi is there as well as the I-Pad2.

On your iPad, go into Settings --> Wifi. Does your iPad indicate your device is on a wireless network?
If so, can you verify your wireless network is correctly functioning?
If not, connect your device to a wireless network. If the iPad refuses to connect to a wireless network. Go into Settings --> General --> Reset --> Reset All Network Settings. If done correctly than you will NOT loose any data while reseting your network settings. After the reset, go back into wifi settings and attempt to connect to a wireless network.

I have a Mac connected to Internet via DSL modem. Just bought iPad (today). What hardware do I need to set up wireless LAN so iPad can be used anywhere in house? Will Linksys work with Apple?

I have a Mac connected to Internet via DSL modem. Just bought an iPad2 and need to know what hardware do I need to add wireless LAN so I can use iPad anywhere in the house. Will a Linksys router work with Apple? Can Mac be "hardwired" and iPad wireless? Probably stupid questions but I need to learn. Thanks.

Thanks for the info. You are correct. I was speaking in general terms here based on my experience with the two devices in day to day use, and not in terms of exact specifications.
A better choice would have been to say that the "coverage" is about the same with the edge going to the Extreme....due to the newer mutliple antenna design.
We sure could use more help on the forums. Hope that you will become a regular.
Hi Bob
RF is a minefield, but one that I have worked in for ages, the most critical factor in my experience is location, location, location!
Better routers have more intelligently designed antenna systems, output power as I said is the same, radiation pattern (coverage) is dependent on antennas and physical location more than all other factors.

Airport working why can't I connect to the internet?

I am having a problem staying connected to the internet even though the airport is has four bars showing. When there is a connection I have a hard time opening more than one window. One tab will be fine while the next will tell me to check my network. Network diagnostics usually pops and I have to wait for the computer to figure out that it is connected to the internet. The last time this happen all I needed was an upgrade but this is a macbook from late 2006 so it will not accept the OS X lion uprade not enough memory.

go to applications>utilities, and make sure your wireless is showing up in the left colum. If you see it there follow the promps to set it up

Why can't I connect with internet cable?

With my old macs, if someone had an internet cable, I could plug and go. But with my LION, I'm not able to connect easily to the internet. Can someone tell me why? I've run the network preference diagnostics and that doesn't help. Also, I turned off my firewall and that doesn't help either?

If it works with another computer it should work with the mac running lion. I would suggest going to network preferences, Select ethernet, and then click on the little settings gear icon at the bottom left and make sure that it isn't set to inactive.

Why can't I connect to the ITunes Store?Also can't download any CD's.For 3 weeks now and no tech support to help on phone?what is up???

Why can't I connect to the ITunes Store?Even through I troubleshooted with the info I was e-mailed,created new password,
made sure date,keychain was correct etc and still cannot open store .I have MacOSX 10.4.11 and it does not let me download
the latest version of iTunes.I need to speak to someone on the phone as it has been over 3 weeks now and this issue is still
not resolved. also cannot download any CD's. After reinstalling disc 1 as told by 1 800 MY APPLE (as I was unable to cut and paste
on my Mac)I ended up having to bring the computer in to the Apple Store on 5th Ave in Manhattan as it also required Disc 2 .
Unfortunately I did not back up my music library and was not told it would be fully erased due to reinstallation. My 6 year music
library got completely wiped out.iTunes had a history of my purchases but I received an e-mail stating about 35 songs and
videos I purchased cannot be retroactive due to modification(I don't know what this means)I greatly appreciate if someone would
help me clarify this issue.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Maria

Why can't i connect to any of my bluetooth devices that i have already paired?

Why can't I connect to any of my Bluetooth devices i have already paired with?

You say "I am paired" but unless you are a Bluetooth device yourself, what device are you trying to send files from? A computer? A mobile phone? If the latter, which one?
To send files Mac to Mac, Bluetooth Sharing needs to be enabled on both Macs in the Sharing system preferences pane.
If you are trying to send files between a Mac and an iOS device via Bluetooth, then that won't work as iOS devices don't have that functionality.

Why can't I connect to my iphone5 with my iPad, Snote2 or another iPhone5 through wifi as a hotspot, only through Bluetooth? My Snote2 can't even find the iphone5 as a hotspot.

Why can't I connect to my iphone5 with my iPad, Snote2 or another iPhone5 through wifi as a hotspot, only through Bluetooth? My Snote2 can't even find the iphone5 as a hotspot, even on Bluetooth.
I've reset, restored and updated everything but no go.

WiFi is preferable for use as a hotspot to Bluetooth.
Have you tried Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings?
If you have and it didn't work I would take the iPhone in for service.

Try this first - 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 - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.
