Wireless router works - Airport not allowing connection

I am unable to connect to the internet wirelessly using Airport. I have not changed any settings on the modem, nor on my MBP, however, I am now unable to connect wirelessly.
Airport, when not connected using the ethernet shows full signal - I then try to open a webpage (using Safari) and the connection drops out immediately/ it will remain connected but Safari will tell me I'm not connected.
I have searched extensively on this, and found some possible resolutions - resetting the SMC; removing, then adding the Airport connection/ the previous network connection; restarting the router/the MBP - I have tried everything and nothing seems to be working.
I do recall having had this problem a while ago and it just sorted itself out after much frustration.
Does anyone have an actual solution to this problem - perhaps Apple have made themselves aware of the problem and come up with an actual diagnosis and subsequent solution....
Help please.....

Erm, what do you mean by 'power cycle'?
I have tried restarting everything, and still getting the same problem.
When I first turn my MBP on it registers a full internet connection wirelessly, but then when I load up Safari it says 'no internet connection available'.
This is tres frustrating.

I have an Airport Extreme wireless router & I can not connect my Kindle.

I have an Airport Extreme wireless router & I can not connect my Kindle. Also, my password will not work when a visitor uses it for a laptop (even a Mac) or any other device that uses the internet. It says the password is incorrect. I easily connected a Kindle last year, but I got a new one & now I can not connect wirelessly. I see no tab to create a guest network. I do not mind giving my password to visitors, but that does not work.

If you temporarily disable wireless encryption on your 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn), can the Kindle connect to the router and gain access to the Internet now? If so, then I would suggest that you reconfigure the AEBSn to use "WPA2 Personal" for the Wireless Security setting, and then, try connecting with the Kindle again.
As far as establishing a Guest Network, the AEBSn must not be in bridge mode. That is, it should be the only router in your current network and directly conncted to the Internet modem. If it is, then you would find the Guest Networking option on the AirPort > Guest Networking tab:

Should I disable the wireless capabilities of my Bigpond modem/router when Airport Extreme is connected?

Should I disable the wireless capabilities of my Bigpond modem/router when Airport Extreme is connected? I'm told that it's better to only use the WiFi capabilities of the Extreme and leave the Bigpond to feed to the extreme.

No, bridge mode would not be the correct setting for this.
Instead, look for a "wireless settings" tab or page that will provide the option to turn off or disable the wireless radio of the BigPond router.
If you are still having difficulty, it would be a good idea to post your question on a BigPond support forum or contact your Internet Service Provider.

Trying to connect Verizon wireless router to Airport Extreme but error says Ethernet unplugged.

Trying to connect Verizon wireless router to Airport Extreme and error says Ethernet Unplugged.

So, AirPort Utility running on the Windows Vista desktop can "see" the AirPort Extreme and displays its icon, but gives that error message at some point in the setup process? How far does it get?
Other questions that may help me (or somebody else) understand your problem better:
Which of the pieces were verified as working before the introduction of the AirPort Extreme?
Did you have the desktop computer attached to the Verizon GT704WGB with one of the Ethernet cables you are now trying to use? Which one? Have you tried the other one to be sure it also works?
Are you using the same port on the GT704WGB? Have you tried another one?
If the desktop has multiple ethernet ports, are you using the same one?
Had you done any special configuration of the ethernet port on the Verizon GT704WGB to get it to work with your desktop?
What category ethernet cable are you using? 3? 5? 5e? 6?

Using time capsule model A1409 and trying to use it as only backup. Already have Verizon wireless router. Do not know which cable port to use in back of time capsule. And also it is asking for password. Have tried all of mine and it will not work.

Want to us my time capsule model A1409 as only backup. 2 TB hard drive.
Already have Verizon wireless router. Do not want to use Time capsule as router, only back up for iMac.
Do not know which cable port to use in back of time capsule to Ethernet port back of my iMac.
And also it is asking for password for the server John Garland's Time Capsule so Time machine can access it..
Have tried all of passwords can think of and none work.
Held the reset button for one second on back of capsule and do not see if anything happened.
What a conundrum.
Appreciate any help to get this working.
Thanks,
John R

I have a 2TB Timecapsule and really only use it for Time Machine backups. But the Wi-Fi side is used to sync my iPad at times.
Mine is wiredup thus;
Eth cable from iMac to modem (not the WAN port should you have one), then eth cable from modem to T/Cap in the WAN port (bottom port with an O sign above it)
I believe when its connected up you may have to set up a wireless network. Follow the instructions to set up Wi-Fi and Network
and then give it a password. The WiFi icon should appear in the menu bar where you can switch it on or off.
Its been sometime since I set it with the help of Apple Techs so I might be a bit rusty.

I have a iMac with a built in airport extreme card. Does the imac act as a wireless router so that I can connect to the internet from my iPad by tethering through my iMac?

Depends which iMac exactly and your network setup, you can go into System Preferences and under the Sharing pane you can enable internet sharing from ethernet (or whereever you get your internet from) to Wi-Fi.

Connect to a USB drive linked to my wireless router (non airport express)?

Hi,
i have a USB drive (FAT32) connected directly to my wireless router and I want to connect to the drive from my powerbook. I am able to mount the drive via an ftp link, however the quality of this connection is not as good - iTunes is not able to pick up all my songs saved on the drive.
Does anyne know a better way to connect to this drive. Id like to keep it connected to the wireless router so that the drive and the information is available to everyone on my home network.
The router is a Netgear WGT634U.
Thanks

Yep tried that. but it gives an error and cant connect. (get an error 36 or a login error - but i know the username and password are correct)

Mimo access points with Static WEP security do not allow connection speeds above 54mbps

I am getting this message:
Access Connections - Mimo access points with Static WEP security do not allow connection speeds above 54mbps
If I switch from WEP to WAP i do not get the message but I still only get 54mbps speed. I have a Linksys Wireless-N Broadband Router. Is there a setting that I am missing???

Yes you need to use WPA-AES or WPA2-AES, or no encryption, to go faster than 54Mbps. This is part of the 802.11n spec.
That's not so bad, because if you have the right 802.11n card and use the right settings you can go up to 300Mbps!
What bites is that the 802.11n card which comes with X-Series ThinkPads is the Intel 4965AGN. It does not support the broader 802.11n 40MHz channel width option, limiting the top speed to 130Mbps .
The new ThinkPads based on the Montevina/Centrino 2 platform will most likely use the Intel WiFi Link 5100/5300 802.11n/WiMax cards, which I hope will fix this, coz I'm going to buy one!
I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!

Trying to get a WRT54GX2 wireless router working with a W...

Trying to get a WRT54GX2 wireless router working with a WPC54G wireless card. The laptop and desktop both will access the Internet and work when hardwired through the router's Ethernet ports. When trying to access wireless, the Laptop shows to be connected to the router and also to Internet, but Internet Explorer can not access any websites. Suggestions? Thanks.

what ip address does the laptop get ?? ensure that the laptop is not set for a static ip add....and it gets an ip add from the router ..

Is Verizon not allowing connections to alternate DNS servers anymore?

Last night I ran a DNS benchmark test, and a notice popped up saying my ISP was intercepting and redirecting all outgoing DNS requests. I've been using OpenDNS for a year now without any problems, then I found out last night I am not connecting to their servers, so I tried Googles servers, no luck there either.
I called tech support (several times) and no one could give me a straight answer to my question: Is Verizon not allowing connections to alternate DNS servers anymore? I was forced to switch back to Verizon servers, not happy about that.
Can someone please answer my question? Thanks.

I'm on FiOS and I've got no issues using OpenDNS. I have the Quantum router set to use it. Works fine.
I've manually changed DNS on my computer to google's servers. No problems with this, either.

Acrobat does not allow connection to

Need help with this error message please. Using Win7, saved a Word 2010 table of contents with multiple links to pdf files across internal servers as a PDF. Also created the word doc w/multiple pdf links as a PDF file using acrobat9 standard and have same problems. when a user with Adobe Reader 8+ clicks on a pdf link in the PDF table of contents file, they get an error message Acrobat does not allow connection to: and they cannot open the linked file. However, I am able to open the files using the same links with both reader and acrobat.
This worked previously until we upgraded to these versions of software... the error message shows a number of % signs and multiple ////. However, i can open the fiile but others cannot.
anyone have any ideas or is this a fix that i need to download?

not sure where my previous reply went; however, there are numerous machines at varuious sites that will be accessing this server/folder. I am not sure if it is a trusted sites issue as the file lists numerous PDF links and some of them open to the respective pdf file and others recieve the mssage. All the files reside on the same server within the same main folder and within subfolders. never had the problem before. the users can open some of the linked files and others the connection msg appears. I however, am able to open the same links they get the error on. I am totally baffled by this and have been troubleshooting for weeks now. I just had acrobat X installed to see if that would help but still problem. I also saved the word doc (2010) as pdf (which lists the links to the other pdfs) but users still have same problem. there are approx 75 links within this doc and I truly hope we don't have to relink everything..

ERecruiting - Data Overview - "Acrobat does not allow connection to..."

Hello gurus,
how is it going?
I'm facing one strange problem in eRecruiting.
We've got customized smartforms for Candidate and Requisition overview.
On Candidate overview we've got part, where URL links of assigned requisitions are shown.
By opening these links, it should open Requisition overview page.
But when I want to open this link, I'm getting popup window, where is written:
"Acrobat Does not allow connection to..."
I've got Acrobat Reader X, I've updated "Trust manager" and "Security (Enhanced)" also in Page preferences.
But still facing this error.
Could you advice me, how I can solve it?
I've already read many pages on google, but still nothing....
Many thanks in advance.
Regards, Luke.

Hi,
first I have a question:
You say you have the Candidate Overview Smartforms containing links to a requisition Smartforms?
So this is a custom development isn't it?
Is the Adobe Acrobat opening within a Browser window or as a dedicated programme?
If Adobe is opened separately please check, that the Browser Integration of Adobe is active within Adobe's settings.
Links within Smartforms are relative links in general and therefore just working when called in-browser.
Best regards
Sebastian

Acrobat does not allow connection to a certain website

I have a PDF with a link to a pdf-file on a certain website. When one user clicks the link it says ( it is in dutch, so i try to translate):
Acrobat does not allow connection with www.XXXX (the name of the link where the link addresses to)
We work in Citrix, most users do not have the problem, only one user has.

Compare the Security (enhanced) and Trust Manager settings for yourself and the user on the same machine. If they are not identical, make them so. If that doesn't work,
I'm assuming the msg appears in a dialog and not the yellow msg bar.

Which wireless router works best with Apple products?

Which wireless router works best with Apple products?

I cannot comment of Airport products, as I have none. Nor would I suppose to argue with Kappy or Ralph.
But in a pinch a LinkSys E2500 will work, as it does for me.

Submit PDF Form by Email (does not allow connection)

It's been sometime since I have created a PDF which included a "Submit by Email" button. I opened the original form and changed the email addresses, saved it, then opened it in Reader. Whenever I try to submit it by email a "Security Block" window pops up stating "Acrobat does not allow connection to:" I have tried to call and pay for support but get the run around. I've searched the web and only found where I need to "Extend the Rights to Reader" which I did to no avail. I've even rebuilt the form from scratch...nothing.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks....

I created the form first in Microsoft Word, then "printed" it to create a PDF. I then use Acrobat to create a bunch of fields, and set the form for distribution.
When the user completes the form in Acrobat, and clicks on the "Submit" button, an email is created with the form as an attachment, and the body of the message is this:
Instructions to add this form to a responses file:
1. Double-click the attachment.
2. Acrobat will prompt you to select a responses file.
Those are the instructions I was referring to. The question is, is there any way to change or eliminate those instructions?
