    i am trying to connect to my friend's wifi, i have a very strong signal indicated on my ipad, but cannot connect to the internet.  Yesterday i connected without any problem, can anybody tell me why i cannot connect today?

    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

  • Your Apple TV is connected to your wi fi network but cannot connect to the internet.  Airplay logo not available on ipad3, iPod touch3g and showing intermittently in iTunes on windows laptop.  Switched ISP a few days ago.  Entered pass key info on all.

    I switched ISP a few days ago and had problems with airplay since.  After restarting and reinstalling and updating, re entering pass keys for new wi fi on everything,  Apple TV shows:  Your Apple TV is connected to your wi fi network but cannot connect to the Internet.  Ipad3 and iPod touch 3G have no airplay icon or get one briefly then it disappears again.  Same with itunes on windows laptop.
    Can anyone help?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

  • Apple TV connects to the network but cannot connect to the internet.

    Apple TV connects to the network but cannot connect to the internet. Works on other Apple TV's we have just not this new one. Defective???  Thank you!

    This might help:
    Apple TV (2nd gen.) saw my wireless network but did not accept my password (gave a network error message). It fixed instantly doing this:
    Made a note of the Apple TV's MAC address. Get it by pressing Menu on the remote, then Settings > General > About. It's called "WiFi address."
    Use your browser on a network connected computer to go to your router settings (usually 192.168.1.1).
    Under "Wireless > Wireless MAC Filter" (or something similar) do these steps:
    Enable Wireless MAC filter
    Enable "Permit PCs listed below to access the wireless network"
    Enter the Apple TV's MAC address
    Click "Save Setting"
    When I did this the network connection immediately started working.
    Note: These instructions are based on a Cisco Wireless-N Broadband, model WRT160Nv2, firmware v2.0.02.

  • I have a Power PC G4 which is running on OSX 10.5.8, it has the AirPort utility but cannot connect to the internet as my iMac can, I think I might need an AirPort Card? Is that the case or do I need something different to connect to a wireless modem?

    I have a Power PC G4 which is running on OSX 10.5.8, it has the AirPort utility but cannot connect to the internet as my iMac can, I think I might need an AirPort Card? Is that the case or do I need something different to connect to a wireless modem?

    Welcome!
    Only one variant of the PowerMac G4 could use the faster Airport Extreme Card. The rest used the original Airport card that is pretty slow.
    To get fast wireless without buying more than one thing, consider this:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Edimax/EW7722IN/
    It goes in an available PCI slot
    There are USB solutions also. However, all PowerMac G4 towers had only slower USB 1.1 ports, so any USB wireless adaptor can only run at about wireless 'B" speeds (slow) unless you also install a PCI USB 2.0 adaptor card. Doing that would allow a USB wireless adaptor to run at its maximum rated speed. These items working together would accomplish that:
    USB wireless "dongle:"
    Newer Technology MAXPower 802.11n/g/b USB Adapter + Plug and play direct or with extension cradle
    USB PCI adaptor:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/Search/Search.cfm?Ntk=Primary&Ns=P_Popularity%7c1&Ne=5 000&N=7069&Ntt=USB+PCI
    Each approach has its advantages. The PCI wireless card is a one-piece solution that takes up no desk space. The USB2 card+USB2 Dongle gives you more fast ports for transferring date from other external USB devices (primarily cameras and external hard drives) at hugely faster rates than can the original ports. I have a USB 2 PCI card in my G4 tower strictly for transferring images from my digital SLR camera in a timely manner.

  • Wifi is working but cannot connect to the internet

    I am using windows 8.1
    My wifi is working - my iphone and ipad can use it and my PC is connected to my broadband but I cannot connect to the internet. I have turned everything off and on a number of times.
    I am totally stuck as to how to fix this.

    Presumably you are connecting by Ethernet. Has this just started to happen or have you never been able to connect?
    Have you tried changing the cable, is it plugged in correctly, have you tried plugging it into different ports on the homehub?
    Have you checked that the computers firewall is not set to block connections, see link
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows-8/windows-firewall-from-start-to-finish
    If you are not using the Windows fiewall have you checked to see if your antivirus/firewall is blocking connection?

  • HT1595 Apple tv will connect to the network but cannot connect to the Internet

    My apple tv is connecting to my network but it says it cannot connect to the Internet. I've already tried restarting everything and I've also connected it to my portable mifi network with same results. Anybody have any ideas?

    This is what the MAC address clone looks like:
    Should I enable it?  If so, should I put something in the MAC Address?  What?  I was able to connect it thru my MiFi, but not my home network.  Until today, it's been connected to my home network for about 8 months with no problem.  Haven't used it for a while...not since I got a new router.

  • NB200 Can connect to wireless networks, but cannot connect to the internet

    I have been able to connect my Win XP netbook to my secure wireless network at home, other people's networks and public networks like the library and McDonalds. This week I'm away from home and discovered that while I can still connect to a number of different wireless networks, I cannot connect to the internet using Internet Explorer.
    I've had this problem once before and fixed it by reinstalling Windows XP and all my other software. I have no idea why it has happened again. I'm hoping for a less drastic solution to the problem..?

    Hi Nakia,
    > I cannot connect to the internet using Internet Explorer.
    Have you tested other browsers like Mozilla Firefox and does this work?
    As MasterG wrote try to renew the IP address using the commend line.
    Last week I had a similar problem and I could solve it by updating the WLAN driver. Just remove the driver, restart the notebook and install the newest one. :)

  • The computer sees the airport signal but cannot connect to the internet

    I have a imac g5 connected wirelessly to my base station & an airport express. The mac part connects to the internet using the network without any problem. My problem is that the pc portion (using Windows XP) of my imac will not connect to the internet using the wireless network. It shows a strong signal but no connectivity. One of the comments that comes up is that the network didn't assign a network address to the computer (I assume the PC portion). Any thoughts how I can get my computer to connect to the wireless network from the PC portion of my mac.
    many thanks.

    Make sure your Firewall settings are correct. I'm going to share some of my settings in the PC area (please bear in mind that these IP addresses could differ from system to system)
    My Windows Firewall is DISABLED. You could do the same temporary and see if it works. I use Zone Alarm Pro Firewall. Make sure in my Control Panel ==> Network connection status, your device shows Airport Express wireless device or router.
    Depending in your Internet service provider and geographical zone the IP address could be different.
    Example:
    Zone Alarm Windows settings:
    TRUSTED ZONES ==> Loopback Adapter 127.0.0.0.1
    PC IP address 192.169.1.3 (example)
    Gateway 192.169.1.254
    DHCP Server 10.0.1.1
    DNS 10.0.0.1
    IN AIPORT EXTREME SETTINGS ( Make sure you are in your Imac side or Mac Os)
    Id 192.169.1.5
    Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
    Router 192.169.1.254
    Connection Automatic
    Ethernet ==> Automatically (through Airport Utility)

  • Airport Express Is Installed But Cannot connect to the Internet

    I thought I connected it o.k. and it gavde me a strong signal icon and recognized my server address on my computer but I notice that the Airporter is blinking an amber light now (haven't moved it since it was initialized) and it also won't let me wirelessly connect to the internet which is why I purchased it. What gives and how can I correct it. I am a brand new Mac user.
    Thanks!
    Ruth

    A flashing amber light indicates that the AirPort Express (AX) is not connected to either a network or the Internet.
    How is your AX connected physically?
    Is it: DSL/Cable modem > (Ethernet cable) > AX > (wireless) > Mac?
    Did you run the AirPort Setup Assistant?

  • Connect to router but cannot connect to the internet

    i set up a wireless network from my desktop, the desktop works great connects to the internet and is the pc that the router is on..i have a laptop and search the wireless networks..i find the one i made and connect to it, my laptop says im connected but when i click internet explorer it says cannot find server what gives? what could be the problem any help would be sweet

    Hi, When you right click (mouse) the Wireless Network Connection, you can see "Repair". Select that one, and see what will happen. In "Status", Select Support, you should see your IP Address: 168.168.1.X, something like that, and that mean your PC obtains the IP from the router. .... Have fun !!

  • Connected to Acess Point but cannot connect to the Internet - WRT54G

    Yes, regrettably I know this is a common problem, but I've spent hours researching adn chatting with Linksys and trying different things, and I can't get anywhere. I have no problems getting on the Internet at the "base computer". Said base computer is on Windows XP. The computer that I am trying to connect to wirelessly is on Windows 2000. As my title suggests, it detects the router, but can't connect to the Internet. I'm using a WUSB54GC there.  Ok, on the Base computer, I have disabled the firewall. My IP config reads as follows: 
    Ethernet Adapter LAN Connection:    
     IP Address  192.168.1.100  
     Subnet Mask  255.255.255.0  
     Default Gway  192.168.1.1 
    PPP Adapter (for my ISP)   
    IP Address  213.178.113.182 
      Subnet      255.255.255.255 
      Default Gway   213.178.113.182
     TCP/IP from control panel, LAN Settings (Static)    
            Exactly as above on the Ethernet Adapter
    DNS Server Addresses     
            Preferred            192.168.1.100     
           Alternate                      4.2.2.2
    However, when I go into Internet Options/Tools/Connections/LAN Settings, the “Automatically detect settings” box is checked off. Is this a problem? Proxy server is not checked. ISP settings have nothing checked off except our username and password
     COMPUTER TRYING TO ACCESS NETWORK (running on Windows 2000)    
            IP Config Readings for the Ethernet Adapter:       
                     IP Address 0.0.0.0  
                          Subnet       0.0.0.0
    (this is strange because earlier I was obtaining digits)    
         TCP/IP, LAN Connection, Static                  
                   IP             192.168.1.10      
                   Sub       255.255.255.0    
                     Default            192.168.1.1       
                    Preferred          192.168.1.1    
                    Alt                     4.2.2.2 Any hints? Thanks very much

    Disconnect the PPP Adapter from Network Connections...
    You should do the steps mentioned earlier, in addition you should remove all static ip addresses entered and then check the IP Address obtained automatically from your router, if you get a valid ip address you should try to ping 4.2.2.2, type ping 4.2.2.2 and press Enter, see if you get 4 replies from 4.2.2.2...
    Then type ping yahoo.com and see if it gives you 4 replies...If you get replies from all pings you should be able to go online...
    You should adjust your browser settings if you get replies and there is no internet...
    Open an IE, click Tools >> Internet Options, then delete all files, cookies, history, forms...Goto "Connections", make sure Never Dial a Connection is checked, click on LAN Settings and make sure all the options are unchecked...Once you are done click on O.k...Close the IE and re-open it...

  • HT1515 Airport Express indicates it isworking properly - but cannot connect to the internet

    I have connected Airport Express to my cable company router via ethernet.  Both the router and Airport Express (solid green light) indicate they are working properly.  When I connect my laptop directly to the cable router, I can access the network. However, I cannot connect to to the Internet wirelessly from my laptop when I connect Airport Express to the cable router.  I get a no internet connection error.  When I try to diagnose and repair the problem, the network settings cannot be fixed.  What should I do?

    A flashing amber light indicates that the AirPort Express (AX) is not connected to either a network or the Internet.
    How is your AX connected physically?
    Is it: DSL/Cable modem > (Ethernet cable) > AX > (wireless) > Mac?
    Did you run the AirPort Setup Assistant?
