Wireless Network Connected But Not Loading Anything
Okay, so I'll be honest, I'm not exactly a pro when it comes to computers. I know my way around computers, but if you tell me something detailed and complicated, it takes a bit to figure it out. That being said, I'll jump right into my problem.
A few months ago we got a wireless router and attempted to set it up. Well, that took a while to figure out and miraculously I managed to get internet from it. For the span of a few hours. After it was set up and I had internet for like three hours, it just stopped working. We kept trying to mess with it, but to no avail. So it was one of those things we just gave up messing with. Then recently we moved to our new house, and for the fun of it I was trying to mess with it again. Strangely, it shows up that I HAVE internet now, but it won't let me load a page. And I know for a fact that it's getting internet through that router for the fact that one of the sites I'm on regularly has an automatic cbox. So if someone posts in it, it automatically refreshes. So I"m on that site the other day and tried out the network, and it refreshes the cbox, but I can't move to any page without getting a page load error of some kind. It also refuses to let me log into MSN or YIM.
So I'm wondering if anyone might know what's wrong and can possible help me fix it?
What is the model no of the router..?
Who is your Internet Service Provider..?
What is the ip address you are getting from the router..?
Try to reset the router for 45 seconds and reconfigure it once again..

Airport has network connection but not connecting to Internet
I have a new Mac book pro, and am having trouble connecting to the internet on my home network.
I can connect to our wireless network and get 100% signal. But the internet is not connecting.
Using ethernet, I can get a connection and browse the internet and network. Using ethernet, the mac book pro has an IP address: 192.168.1.4
My router has an IP address of 192.168.1.1
The subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0
Using the Airport and DHCP I get very different results:
mac book pro IP: 169.254.17.98
subnet mask: 255.255.0.0
I have tried to manually input the IP, Subnet mask and router IP that work. But still no internet.
I can see lots of similar posts but no real answers to this.
If anyone can help, that would be great!
CheersIf your wireless network is encrypted (WEP or WPA), try temporarily disabling encryption. Can your MBP get an IP address from DHCP and access the Internet wirelessly now?
If not, let's double-check your MBP's AirPort settings ...
System Preferences > Network > AirPort
o Location: Automatic
o In the left column, verify that an AirPort option exists. If it does not, click "+" to create one. (Note: If you are unable to create an AirPort configuration, the AirPort card in your computer either doesn't exist or it is not recognized.)
o Verify that AirPort is "On." Click "Turn AirPort On" button if not.
o Ask to join new networks: (enabled)
o Show AirPort status in menu bar: (enabled)
Systems Preferences > Network > AirPort > Advanced

IPhone 4S shows max strength connection but not loading mail or finding Safari pages
My iPhone is the exception. We have an iPad and an iPad mini and both connect from the same room to the same router as the iPhone and the iPads work faultlessly. The iPhone shows a full 5 bars connection strength but nothing is coming to it from the internet. The timer whirls around but, eventually, mail, Safari and all other internet apps just time out.
I've tried resetting the network by "forgetting" then re-connecting with a new entry of the password. I've tried shutting down the iPhone and re-starting. Nothing seems to have any effect.
Help please?Oh dear, wrong community! I can't find a community for iPhone problems?

My phone says i am hooked up to wireless. but will not load anything.
Do you have a seperate AP providing your wireless or are you using the wireless built into the AT&T router? If seperate, you will need to re-configure the AP to the new equipment AT&T sent you.
Got a new modem today and now my phones will not load anything. Says i am hooked up to wireless. But cant load games,Facebook and well everything.please help.

Netsh does not work to set IP address of "Wireless Network Connection"
On Windows 7 Professional
This set of commands work for configuring the "Local Area Connection"
netsh interface ip set address name="local area connection" static 74.94.87.157 255.255.255.248 74.94.87.158 1
netsh interface ip set dns name="local area connection" static 8.8.8.8
netsh interface ip add dns name="local area connection" 68.87.77.130 index=2
BUT for the WiFi connection, this command errors with this message "ELEMENT NOT FOUND"
netsh interface ip set address name="Wireless Network Connection" static 74.94.87.157 255.255.255.248 74.94.87.158 1
BUT the 2 following dns commands DO work for the Wifi Connection.
netsh interface ip set dns name="Wireless Network Connection" static 8.8.8.8
netsh interface ip add dns name="Wireless Network Connection" 68.87.77.130 index=2I FOUND A SOLUTION
I manually renamed the interface from "Wireless Network Connection" to "Wifi"
Then when I use "WiFi" in the command line, I no longer get the
ELEMENT NOT FOUND error.
I have no idea why renaming the interface works . . as shown on original post above, "set dns name" command worked without the name change, but the "IP set Address" did not work.
Anybody know what this is about ? -
Photosmart C310: WiFi connected, but not showing up in network via Mac or iPhone
I am using a HP Photosmart Premium C310. It is connected to WiFi, but does not show up on Mac or iPhone via Wifi:
- iPhone Airprint does not find the printer (select printer)
- Mac "add printer" does not find the printer
- newest HP Setup Application (HP_Lion_Ink_SW_v12.13.14, Dec 2011) finds printer only as long as connected via USB, reconfigures WiFi settings, but can not re-find the printer when USB cable is taken off
- I can send "ping" to the printer using the IP address shown in touchscreen info panel so it is online in WiFi
- I tried to reset factory settings for settings + network settings, no change...
Is that a defect or any idea how to fix the problem?
Best regards, any help appreciated...Hi,
Per your description, i believe the issue may being caused by your router compatibility with Apple Bonjour, which require multicasting support in order to operate propertly.
In order to verify, try to temporary create an ad hoc connection between your iPhone and the printer and check for any change:
Step One : Restore the network defaults on the HP All-in-One
On the product control panel, touch the Setup icon ( ). The Setup menu displays.
Touch Wireless .
Touch and then slide your finger down on the display to select Restore Network Defaults .
When asked 'Are you sure? ' touch Yes .
After the network defaults restore, touch Wireless Connection , and then touch On .
The message 'Wireless Radio is now on ' should briefly display on the control panel and the Wireless light ( ) on the HP product should start to blink. The HP product is now openly broadcasting the ad hoc wireless network.
Step Two: Create an ad hoc wireless network connection between the HP All-in-One and the Apple device
On your Apple device, tap the Settings icon ( ).
Tap Wi-Fi .
Under Choose a network , find the name that starts with HPC310 , and then tap it. A checkmark should display to the left of the name.
Wait three minutes to make sure that the ad hoc connection is established and try printing from the iPhone by taping the Action icon ( ) and then tapping Print.
If you were able to print through the direct printer, it means the router more likely cause the problems..
Please clarify your router brand, model and the router firmware version if available.
Regards,
Shlomi

Ipad2, I can not sign in to imessage after turning it off and doing a hard reboot. Upon entering my info it states no network connection, but I can use it o surf in Safari and iter websites. Any suggestions. Went on with Apple, they think its my network. All other wireless equipment can ign on without problems. This happened after I turned imessage off.
Step by step, how did you arrive at seeing this agreement?

Getting this messg on Factime "could not sign in, check your network connection", but I have Wifi activated and working with internet?? what can I do?
Usually it's because you are not making internet connection via wifi. Open Safari and see if it connects.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

Time Machine works on Ethernet connection but not wireless
Hi,
This weekend I setup time machine to work with a NAS drive connected to my wireless router. If I connect my macbook to the router directly via an ethernet cable, and start a backup, it works fine. If I however try to start a backup when only on wireless it always fails. Here's what messages I'm getting:

Hi,
Hi, and welcome to the forums.
This weekend I setup time machine to work with a NAS drive connected to my wireless router.
Time Machine doesn't work well, if at all, with many NASs. See the pink box in #2 of [Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/FAQ.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).
There are several threads in the Snow Leopard > Time Machine forum with what appear to be similar problems with Iomega NASs.
If I connect my macbook to the router directly via an ethernet cable, and start a backup, it works fine. If I however try to start a backup when only on wireless it always fails.
An indication of a bad wireless connection or interference, but could also be the setup of the NAS or compatibility with the way the router works in wireless mode.

After an initial failure, it did connect.

You've posted in the Leopard forum, and didn't specify what version of OSX you're on. But those messages usually indicate that your NAS is not fully compatible with the Time Machine requirements on Snow Leopard.
Error: (5) getxattr for key:com.apple.backupd.SnapshotState path:/Volumes/MAC Backups/Backups.backupdb/Gary's MacBook Pro/2011-01-15-042811
Those are errors reading from the backups; specifically, getting extended attributes from the backups on your NAS (a "snapshot" is Time Machine's name for a backup folder).
First, contact the maker of the NAS for updated software/firmware compatible with Snow Leopard.
That might fix the problem. If not, all we can tell you is, it may be some problem with the setup of the NAS, and/or compatibility with the wireless function of your router. See the maker's instructions/Help/support. -

Ever since I downloaded the new Firefox, when I right-click on a link to open it in a different tab, the tab will open but will not load anything, no matter what link I try. The tab will show the website destination in the navigation bar, but will not automatically load it; I have to press the load button in the navigation bar instead of it instantly loading.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== The newest version, 3.6.6, of Firefox was downloadedIt's not specific sites. I can middle-click on the same link 50 times and it will open it in a new tab 45 times and 5 of those times, it will randomly open it in an entirely new window. I don't know what's causing this.
It happens so randomly that I don't know how to pin-point what it could be. -
I have tryed to connect an AirPort Express to my wireless network. But I alwais get the errocode -4. Can anybody help. I have reset the AirPort Express and updated the software.
The ZyXEL P-2601HN-F1, as you know, is a combination DSL modem & 802.11n wireless router (or gateway device).
For your goal you will want to take a look at this Apple Support article for details on how to configure an AX for iTunes.
If you are still having difficulties with the AX joining the ZyXEL's wireless network, you can try the following:
Temporarily disable wireless encryption.
If you are hidding the SSID, disable that feature.
Change the Mode Select setting to: 802.11g Only
Change the Channel Selection from "Auto" to a set channel, like 1, 6, or 11
