WIFI shows connected but I cannot open any web page

My playbook connects to the wifi no problem, but when i try to use the brower to connect to a web page, it won't connect. It gives me the error message that i should try again.
It is as if it is not connected to the internet.
When i try APP world, it tries to connect but it tell me that I am not connected to the internet.
The internet works on when i try it on my computer and my blackberry bold.
Solved!

Hello,
Please specify the Router type that you are currently using?
(is it Netgear, Cisco, Belkin, Linksys?). I have known many cases with PlayBook not connecting to NETGEAR routers.

  • My  ipad is connected to the wi-fi but still wont open any web pages. what should I do?

    I need help with using the internet. my ipad is connected to the wi-fi but there's still a problem opening the web page.

    Reboot your router by powering it down for 30 seconds. Power off your iPad.
    Power up your router and make sure it completes its startup and acquires a good connection to the Internet. Then power up your iPad. Go to settings > Wi-Fi then select your Wi-Fi network and tap on Forget this Network. Then let the iPad try to connect again. Be sure any required password is entered correctly.

  • Can connect to Internet but can't open any web pages

    Hi there helpers, I was on my iMac this morning and everything was fine. I could open any browsers and it could load pages very fast, but after I downloaded and tried to install Xquartz ( recommended by apple) I went on my browser again any tried to open Facebook but it didn't work all it said on the browser was NO DATA RECEIVED. I thought it was only Facebook so I tried google but it wasn't, it was all of the websites. So I'm not sure if I've accidentally downloaded a virus or malware. By the way I use google chrome to do the things above but I did do it again in safari. Thanks

    katlyncarlson, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Look at the IP address in your Network preference pane under AirPort and TCP/IP. Does the IP address start with 169?

  • My iPad connects to my router but does not open any web page or even download my mail. My router works just fine. My iPod touch is having no problems loading pages. If at all my iPad does open a page, it does so very slowly. It happens with all routers.

    It never had any problems before I upgraded to iOS6. Please help!

    Hi adtsalmon,
    You can only watch the movie on the device you rented it on. Here's a snippet from the Apple Support site (italics mine):
    If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.
    Here's the link to the Movie Rentals FAQs site FYI:

    Hope this helps!

  • Safari 5.1.4 cannot open any web pages

    When I start Safari in three of four accounts, the home page just blinks trying to open, but it never does. Safari works just fine in only one account.
    Safari 5.1.4
    iMac Intel
    Mac OS X 10.7.3
    Thank you for any help you can provide.

    Hi Jim ...
    When you have problems with Safari (or any app) in more than one user account that's an indication the startup disk needs reparing.
    Since you are running Lion you need to use Lion Recovery to do that.

  • When I upgrade to FF 26 on my PC laptop, I am no longer able to open any web pages on any browser. Help

    Whenever I upgrade to FF 26 on my pc laptop I am no longer able to open any web pages on my laptop in any browser. If I reset my system to a previous date I am good to go. Any ideas on what may be going on or how to troubleshoot it? I am not a technical person - btw
    My connection to the internet still shows as connected, but I cannot open any web pages.
    thanks,

    Is this happening on a computer running Windows (you posted with as Mac)?
    If this is an issue on a Windows computer:
    It is possible that security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    Reset everything.. did you do this?
    Tap Settings / General / Reset / Reset Network Settings
    If you're already been there, done that, could be a third party app preventing Safari from accessing the web.
    Re sync your apps 5 at a time, then test the iPad.

  • Firefox cannot open any web site except facebook

    firefox cannot open any web site except facebook.when i browse other site except facebook, it automatically open facebook.

    Does Blackberry Link install any add-ons into Firefox? You can check here:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Plugins category<br>
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
    Also, does Blackberry Link create any Windows network connections? To make sure Firefox isn't randomly choosing dysfunctional networks, check your proxy setting here:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > Network > "Settings" button
    If you have Auto-detect, try either No Proxy or Use system proxy settings.

  • Safari on iPod touch will no longer open any web pages even after reset.

    My iPod touch will no longer open any web pages via Safari. I am connected to WiFi and other apps work fine (mail for example). I connected to Itunes and did a reset - still no luck. S/w is up to date for this version of touch - 4.x.

  • Why Safari 4.0.4 cannot open some web pages?

    Safari 4.0.4 cannot open some web pages, while Firefox 3.5.7 works like a charm.
    I tried to open http://www.bdnews24.com/bangla/ for which Safari gets stuck (never opens the page, except for the first word of the first line), but Firefox shows the page very well. The same problem happens for some other web sites as well (e.g. http://www.prothom-alo.com/).
    (I have Ekushey Bengali AAT fonts, and they are working fine in Firefox and other applications. So this cannot be a font issue.)

    HI,
    From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
    From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
    Go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1594
    Make sure you are running Safari in 32-bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Also, (in that same window) make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.
    In case it could be a font issue in the future this may help.
    Try clearing the font cache. In order to do that you need to boot in Safe Mode.
    Shut down your Mac.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, press and hold the Shift key.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple and progress indicator. During startup in Mac OS X v10.4.x or later, you will see "Safe Boot" on the login window, even if normally you log in automatically. Boot time is a minute or two longer than a normal boot.
    After your Mac boots to the Desktop restart the computer normally, without holding any keys during startup.
    What this process does... It moves to the Trash all font caches normally stored in /Library/Caches/
    Restart your Mac and try Safari.

  • Safari Wont Open Any Web Page

    I just updated my Safari to 3.1.2 and now it wont open any web page. I know my system is fine as I also have Firefox and it works great. I have tried reseting Safari, emptying the cache deleting the plist, but nothing works. I have even tried deleting Safari and downloading the latest version from the apple website and re-installing it. No dice either. Safari seems to be working fine but it wont opent any website. Everything just time's out. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Try this:
    Empty Safari's cache (from the Safari menu), then close Safari.
    Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete the following files:
    form values
    download.plist
    Then go to Home/Library/Preferences and delete
    com.apple.Safari.plist
    Repair permissions (in Disk Utility).
    Start up Safari again, and things should have improved.
    If not, MacFixit have published a very detailed (very!) article on speeding up a slow Safari, here:
    http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20070416000657464
    Many, including me, have also followed the advice given by others here to add DNS codes to their Network Settings, with good results in terms of speed-up:
    Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu. Click on TCP/IP and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' enter the following two numbers:
    208.67.222.220
    208.67.220.222
    Click on Apply Now and close the window.
    Restart Safari, and repair permissions.

  • I have an iPad 2.  Safari will not open any web pages.

    I have an iPad 2 which I have had for almost a year.  I have never had trouble with my WiFi before and now Safari is not working.  It will not open any web pages.  All of my apps (like Facebook and IMDB) that require an internet connection are working.  Safari on my iPhone is working with my WiFi.  I have tried resetting my WiFi and my iPad and that has not helped.  I took it to an Apple store and they told me nothing was wrong with it because Safari was working in their store.  When I brought it home it worked for a day and is now not working again.  Any ideas?

    From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    Tap and hold any icon until they wiggle
    Press the red to delete the Safari app from this list.
    Press the home twice button when done.
    Restart Safari.
