Wireless signal but unable to view web pages

I have a WRT54G version 6 wireless router, it's security enabled and my XP laptop recognizes the signal and says I'm connected, excellent strength. Problem is that when I open IE no pages will load, if I connect the modem to my ethernet connection I can connect fine.
Any ideas?

I'm having the exact same problem.  This morning I went to the website to follow the directions from Easy Answers: How to set up PPPoE DSL connections with Linksys Router......just a great help this was...after all the plug/unplug/plug/computer off/on/off/on....When I clicked on IE icon to connect to the internet, All it Connected to was this LINKSYS page...couldn't go  any place else!!! 
 I've had to unplug everything and go back to the DSL modem direct to this PC to get on the internet to go to this link....Now, interesting it does make sence that both the modem and router can not have the same IP address, but if I change the router..what do I change it too???  May DSL works at 192.168.1.1 which is the same as the link I went too to get the Linksys page.  Thanks

  • Connected to an active network but unable to load web pages

    Hi,
    I am using an old Powerbook with OS 10.2.x and am trying to add it to an existing network at home. The network is a DSL/ADSL connection, which is received by a modem and is passed on to a wired/wireless router. I have a PC which connects successfully to the router either by wire or wireless and is able to load web pages.
    My Mac, however, does not. It indicates that it is connected to my wireless network, and shows full signal strength. It is assigned an appropriate IP address by the router. However, I cannot load any webpages. All I get is a 'server not found'. This is vexing me, and I have been at it for hours, but no solution.
    Let me add that with the same settings, I was able to browse on my Mac also yesterday, but for some reason, I have no luck today. Can someone please indicate what is going on?

    I am having the exact same problems. My laptop (Gateway) connects fine to the router, but my Mac does not. They sit right next to each other upstairs. The signal will SOMETIMES come through to my Airport card and when it does it is at full strength, but when i run Safari, nothing. I have tried to enter all the information that my PC has printed out and displayed for me, but i have no clue what half of the things are. and my applecare has expired so the people at Apple will not help which is extremely annoying. Sorry i can't help. But if i find anything i will let you know.

  • Connected to "open wireless network" but can't open web pages

    Anyone ever to joined a "public" open network but failed to open web pages?
    Twice I have entered a hotspot (Texas Highway Dept. Rest Area & an Air Force base recreation hall) and received the "Do you want to join the open network ...." prompt but once joined with full signal strength, I can't open any web pages.
    Tried several variations of "Automatic" in Network prefs. I could join the network no problem and always got the green "connected to the internet via Airport" indicator. Same connection setup joins typical hotel and other hotspots no sweat.

    Hi Tim-
    If your Mac has been sleeping when you pull into the Texas Rest Area, and you hit the 'connect to open network'...
    You might want to try a full restart of the mac, and try again.
    If this has only happened twice to you (out of how many open networks that have been successful?)...then that's not a bad track record.
    DNS is likely the issue, as mentioned here. A cure-all can often be a 'restart the mac', which might make some mac users gasp...gives you a chance to pretend you're a PC

  • Internet connected but unable to load web pages

    Hi - My computer is an Imac, late 2006 model. For some reason I seem to be having problems connecting to the internet using the Airport connection. Using the Ethernet cable everything is fine no problems whatsoever, but wireless connection just doesn't happen. I have run through all the relevant diagnostics and checked the wireless router modem settings. My wife recently bought a MacBook - it connects wirelessly without a hitch. I even changed the iMac setting to exactly the same as the MacBook, but still nothing. I get the green lights in the Network Diagnostics screen, but when I try to load a page in Safari I just get an error message " Not connected to the Internet, or Server failed to respond".
    My broadband ISP is Virgin Media (not a cable connection - it's ADSL) and the wireless router modem is a Netgear DG834GSP v3.
    Any ideas anyone as am getting really frustrated at not being able to connect wirelessly.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi I have been having exactly the same problem for the last couple of weeks, and can't explain what is happening either. The Mac seems to be connected to the Internet with all of the status 'lights' in Network diagnostics green. I am picking up an IP address but can't load any Web pages. Very puzzling !

  • Unable to view web page no matter what browser i use

    Ok on my MacBook i am unable to view a web site no matter what browser i use. If i go to another computer in my network i am able to view this site. If i take my laptop to another network it will still not work.  I have run permissions and disk warrior. I did try a few things with onyx as well but was not so sure what i was doing. Any suggestions?

    What is the error?
    The DNS cache could be stuck.
    In the Terminal try:dig www.macupdate.comIt should reply that it is 70.86.154.194.
    If that doesn't work, you DNS is not working and pointing you to the wrong place.
    You can try clearing the DNS cache with dscacheutil -flushcacheAlmost forgot to mention: there are several threads on similar problems.

  • Unable to view web pages with browsers

    I have currently moved to another city due to the hurricane. I am hooked up to the internet through a interoffice network. I can see the "pages" of my internet explorer off of my "pc" - however, I can not see the "pages" of my browsers (safari and explorer) on my mac. Totally confused - never happened before. Please help.
    My website is "down" due to the storm also - no email at this time throuch .Mac.

    Hi, Warren, welcome to Apple's user-to-user discussion forums.
    When you say you can see "pages" on Internet Explorer, does that mean you can access the Internet from Internet Explorer? Is this how you are accessing these discussion forums? If by "pages" you do not mean web pages on the Internet, what do you mean?
    Is your Mac properly connected to the network so that it has access to the Internet. Can you send and receive mail, for example?
    You can access your .Mac account from any Internet connection. just go to Mac.com and log in as usual. Once you have logged into .Mac, you can use Web mail to read or send email. You can also set up your Mail program to automatically download and send email using your .Mac account.
    I am sorry to hear about your relocation from the storm. I hope you and those you are concerned about are ok.

  • (X230) Connected to Wifi with excellent signal but unable to load internet pages:

    Hey everyone,
    Hoping for the community to help me figure out a problem of mine.
    Trying to connect my X230 to internet through a new router (Asus - security type WPA-Personal) and although the laptop connects without a problem (98% signal strength), internet pages are not loading. The diagnosis tool isn't finding anything and I could add that other laptops do not have the same problem when connecting to this router.
    My tech level is rather low so I don't know what more I could add to help you guys get a clear view of the situation/problem so if more info is needed, let me know. I won't be far.
    Thanks a lot,
    Patrick 

    Thanks for your help jdhurst,
    To answer your questions:
    1. The machine connects fine on other routers. For example Starbucks (Unsecured), friends house (Linksys on WPA2-Personal), two different schools (WPA-Enterprise and WPA2-Enterprise).
    Maybe it's a coincidence but its the first time the machine tries to connect to a WPA-Personal...
    2. Several other computers connect well to this router. Which leads me to believe that the problem is with the X230.
    3. How do I do this if I can't access internet with the said machine? (sorry, a bit of a noob).
    Extra notes:
    A) When I open up the Wireless Network Connction Status, it says ''No Internet Access'' next to IPv6 Connectivity.
    B) Although this router is set on WPA-Personnal, the Lenovo Access Connections manager seems to think that specific router is in fact a WPA2-PSK
    Hopefully this will generate more thoughts on the subject.

  • Flash 9 installed, but unable to view on pages

    I've been helping my uncle with some recent software updates.
    Recently, he renewed his Norton Internet Security subscription (for
    2 years) and got a free copy of Systemworks out of the deal. Around
    the same time, MSN just updated his browser and connection software
    (he's on MSN dial-up).
    Ever since, his Flash hasn't been working. He had 7, so he
    thought he needed to update. Going to the Flash 9 install page
    failed to work. Through the MSN browser, no ActiveX control
    security dialog happened. I did a clean uninstall of Flash and was
    able to get that security dialog. That didn't help, since no
    download box came up.
    So, I came home. On my computer I downloaded an
    install_flash_9 msi package, burned that to a CD and installed it
    on his computer. When we go to a site that has flash, it still just
    shows a box with an X. I can right click on that and get the
    "about" "settings" and "About Flash 9" options, but nothing there
    helps.
    I searched all over MSN's settings, but haven't found
    anything that would block flash. I tried temporarily disabling
    Norton, but that didn't help either.
    His computer is slow because he has a million spyware
    blockers and popup blockers, but I did make sure to shut those
    down. I also went through plain IE and checked the Norton Settings
    there. I made sure to allow all Flash and ActiveX content there.
    Still nothing.
    Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.
    Wackman

    MSN uses the MSN Explorer, which I think is IE6 based. He
    also has IE6 installed, and that's where I can get to the Norton
    Internet Security controls. I have already gone to Internet Options
    and enabled all the Active X stuff. That didn't work.
    I could try to run getflash again, but I think it's installed
    OK. Sites report that flash is installed, but applets aren't coming
    through. I *think* MSN has foisted on him an MSN Firewall which he
    doesn't need with the Norton stuff.

  • 877W unable to view web pages

    Hi all,
    I've been trying to setup the new 877W DSL router for last days with no luck.
    Situation is as follows:
    Everything seems to be alright, DSL connects properly, and my pc is able to ping and traceroute to sites.
    Problem comes when trying to use the web browser, I'm not getting any kind of heavy page (it does load google after 30 secs).
    I've checked it does NAT translations as I can see them with the sh ip nat translations command.
    I'm copying the whole config. Thanks in advance for your help, Any comment will be helpful.

    Hi,
    2 things to try, first you say that you can ping sites while not able to web browse, it might be a DNS problem accordingly please try to check your dns (ping the DNS and then try doing nslookup).
    Second, for the MTU and MSS its recommended to have:
    interface
    ip tcp adjust-mss 1452
    interface
    mtu 1492
    HTH, please do rate all helpful replies,

  • Help with viewing web pages

    Hi, hoping someone can help.  Just got the blackberry pearl 8100.  I can view web pages and see pictures but I cannot view web page videos or hear music.  Shouldn't I be able to view videos and stream music?  Do I need to enable different browser settings?
    Thanks

    Thanks, I just reinstalled the program but its still not
    working.....any other suggestions?

  • When I open Safari why does it not open my pre-set home page, but instead opens multiple previously viewed web pages?

    I open up Safari and expect it to go straight to my home page, but instead it seems to open any number of previously viewed web pages.  I have recently installed Lion and I don't recall this happening with Snow Leopard.  Any ideas...?

    Hold down the shift key as you click the Dock icon. This will kill the automatic "resume" feature found in Lion.
    Hold down the Option key when you use the Safari menu to quit the app. This will "discard windows".

  • Unable to load web pages

    I have had my blackberry for about 3 months and until recently I have been able to load and view web pages without any problems.   Now, after I enter a webpage address and hit return, I get a blank screen with 'Loading..' on the bottom, and it stays like that without progessing.
    I get this whether I am at home with a wireless homehub connection or elsewhere.
    I think the problem started when I was trying to access windows live messenger, so I don't know if that is the cause.  I may have  tried enabling java for the website, and again i don't know if this contributed to the problem.  I have restored the original settings to try and  resolve the problem but this hasn''t made any difference.
    My phone also displays the lettes UMA near the signal indicator.  I don't know what this means and whether it can explain the problem.
    I am not particularly IT literate, so if anybody thinks they know what the problem could be. and can explain it in a straightforward way that would be very helpful.

  • Unable to view next page of report in Crystal Viewer using JAVA

    Post Author: sartu
    CA Forum: JAVA
    We have been able to successfully deploy a report through Crystal viewer XI /Java /Sun Solaris, report works fine, able to suppress group tree, but unable to veiw 2nd page of report.    The suppression of the group tree in the web page required a simple command , is there one that allows us to proceed to the next page?  I am not JAVA savvy so I will be communicating this to the person who will be making the correction, please pardon me if I left something out.
    Thank you!

    It's not clear whether your issue is with the Page Navigation controls not working, or whether you wish to programmatically skip the first page and go to the next page.  If the latter, then the CrystalReportViewer class has a showNthPage method.

  • Home hub connected but can't open web pages

    Hi
    Having a problem accessing any web pages. Has been like this for last 3 days. All the lights on the BT Home Hub are on and according to the task bar on my laptop it is connected and signal etc is all fine. When you open browser it tries to connect but never loads a page and eventually times out. Have phoned BT broadband help and they say there is nothing wrong with the line. Pretty certain it's not my laptop as my wife's has exactly the same problem and she uses a different browser and has different anti-virus software.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    I have also had exactly the same problem!
    I've had the BT Broadband option 1 for at least 3 years now and not had any major problems (lucky me).  I decided to go for the new package (TV, Broadband (option 2), & calls package £18 per month - currently on offer) as I wanted to get Sky Sports through BTVision.  I'm not allowed Sky or cable TV where I live.  The activation date for Broadband option 2 was Monday 7th March and Monday 14th for BTVision.  This also included a new router i.e. HomeHub3.
    On Sunday the 6th March my internet connection was fine i.e. could open web pages, get email etc (using a BT Voyager Router).  On Monday 7th I went on line and was unable to open web pages.  I thought it might be a minor problem i.e. back up in an hour.
    On Tuesday the 8th March I still had the same problem (Voyger Router) but had also received my new router (BT Home Hub 3).  I decided to install the new hub thinking that would resolve the problem but it did not.  I then tried a wirless & cable (2 different cables) connection to my PC & XBox and still could get online even though I was "Connected".  I phoned the broadband help desk and was on the phone for at least an hour with no success.  The help desk agent said it could be a problem with my account and said he would ring me back on Wed at 8pm........guess what?  No phone call.  I then phoned up again (10pm) & went through all the usual tests.......again!  It still didn't work and I was told that it was probably a problem with my PC and they put me through to another department that should be able to help.  I was then asked what the problem was (no communication between department then!)  I had to go through the whole thing again and was then told that I would have to pay £10 a month (for at least 3 months) for them to do further checks.
    Wednesday & Thursday evening I phoned the Broadband help line (same tests again - no notes on my previous calls!) and still no success. I didn't pay for the £10 month service (BT Home help) out of principle and do not know what to do next.
