Wirelessly Connected But No Internet!

Hi,
I have run into my second problem trying to connect this new Airport Base Station.
All my wired computers have internet connection but my laptop connecting wirelessly has none!
It is connected to my wireless network and the connection has perfect signal. I am not using WEP so I can't see what the problem would be!
If anyone can offer assistance, it would be appreciated !
Thanks,
slevytam

I have been having problems with my MacbookPro connecting to the internet ever since I come on to Verizon FIOS service. The service comes with a 802.11G router as part of the package. it is set up with WEP security. It often takes me 4 or 5 tries for the airportin my Mac to recognize and connect to the router. I have not ad any problems connecting to public routers in places like Caribou coffee or Pannera restaurants nor have I had problems connecting to restricted networks with passwords (specifically the National Science Foundation internal network). Last night I downloaded the latest upgrade to my airport software from Apple and the result was no connection at all. Later today I have been able to connect but I am concerned as to what the problem might be. Another (windows) computer in the same household has no problem connecting.
Does anyone have any thoughts on thisw?
Thanks for any input.

I get wireless connection but my internet does not work on my ipad 2

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

Wireless connected but no internet connection on MacBook Pro

I Have recently purchased a new MacBook Pro. I updated the software to OS X Yosemite 10.10 a couple of weeks ago and had no initial issues connecting to my home internet (However I could not get onto public hotspots which I was told was due to a comparability issue with my updated Safari). Now, I cannot connect at all to my home internet. I have tried re-starting the router, re-installing the wireless network, clearing history and website data and restarting the computer. All other Apple products (iPhone and iPad) are connecting as normal.
Aa advice much appreciated - thanks!

Hi Carolyn - Thank you for responding, I appreciate the help!
We have a tower, and I don't see an on/off button. Should I just unhook the power cord from the tower? We also have the phone line hooked to the tower, should I unhook as well? I'm assuming the PC is off before I do this?
Then, turn the computer back on?
Thank you!

My Macbook Pro doesnt seem to connect to my Belkin wireless router. It is connected but the internet would not work. any suggestions?

hey guys. I am having trouble with my internet. My MacBook Pro seems to be connected with Belkin wireless router, but the internet would not work. We recently changed the router so its pretty new, and it used to work on my HP laptop. Although there were some problems, it still worked. But now, the internet works and stops suddenly, and then works again.
I would love to hear some suggestions to get rid of this.
Thanks
Kiran

If you have not already done so, read the troubleshooting section in Belkin's user manual, contact their customer tech support by phone or go to its website. Please detail all you have done to resolve your issue. Need this information so that the users can avoid the "been there, done that" scenario type responses. This is to avoid repeating the troubleshooting you may have already tried. Thank you.

Windows 7 Laptop Has Wireless Access but No Internet Connection

Dia duit!
Okay, I have been called to the rescue concerning my mother's HP laptop again, and for once I cannot for the life of me resolve the issue. The machine is running Windows 7 because friends don't let friends run Windows 8. She has a wireless network
connection, but no internet access when she is in Normal Mode. However, she does have access in Safe Mode with Networking. I brought my own laptop over when I came to visit, and it connects to the wireless with no trouble. My mother has tried
three different web browsers-- Firefox, Chrome, and IE-- so it doesn't seem to be a browser issue.
WHAT I'VE TRIED THUS FAR:
Naturally, given that it worked in Safe Mode, my first thought was a possible malware infection. In Safe Mode with Networking, I ran Malwarebytes and Combofix. Sixteen infections were found and removed, but none of them were particularly nasty.
Afterward I used CCleaner's registry scanner to take care of several registry issues. I then completely shut down and rebooted the computer back into Normal Mode. The same issue still persisted.
I then removed and added the wireless network connection under Network and Sharing Center>Manage Wireless Networks. The laptop still had no internet access. I toggled the wireless switch off and back on. No dice. In desperation
I finally reset the IP and DNS (cmd /c "ipconfig /release" and cmd /c "ipconfig /renew.") It still didn't fix the problem.
I have never seen this issue when one of the above measures didn't resolve it, so I would be extremely grateful for any advice.

Hello,
A few things to try:
1. Did you check Device Manager to see if the wireless adapter is listed and is enabled?
2. Did you try to un-install the wireless adapter and have the laptop scan for new hardware?
3. Is there an icon in the systray for the wireless network connection and if so, what is its state, bars or no bars with the "No" symbol?
4. Is Windows or another utility controlling wireless connections?
5. Can you hook it up via a wired connection and check HP's site for updated drivers?

Blackberry torch 9800 wifi connected but no internet

hi i am using blackbery torch 9800.its giving error that wifi is connected but no internet connection.please help me

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
With a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Reboot
With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support and to ensure that you are subscribed to a data plan from them that is adequate to use the services you desire (many services require a data plan, even if the method of access is only WiFi).
Good luck!
Occam's Razor nearly always applies when troubleshooting technology issues!

The wi-fi on my ipod touch is connected but the internett is not working! Help

Soo annoying, it's connected but the internett is not working. I don't know what to type in or what to do, so I need help.

Are you 100% positive you are connected? Head to Settings - Wi-Fi and tap the > next to the network you are connected to? What is listed for an IP address? If it's in the 169.x.x.x range, it means your iPod did not properly receive a valid IP address via DHCP from your modem/router. So the 169.x.x.x address is a self-assigned one.
This can usually be resolved by a reboot of your router. You can do this by unplugging it for about 30 seconds. After it powers back up, try reconnecting it. It wouldn't hurt to try a reset of your iPod as well. To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
See here for more troubleshooting suggestions.

I do have wifi connection but no internet, how is this possible? I logged in to the internet at my friends place and when I got home my own internet was not working anymore

I do have wifi connection but no internet, how is this possible? I logged in to the internet at my friends place and when I got home my own internet was not working anymore

This is possible to be connected to WiFi but not internet.
You connect to your modem/router via WiFi and whether it is connected to the internet or configured properly to route the internet to WiFi devices is a different story.
Now if you've already reset your WiFi (try disabling and enabling) and perhaps even restarting your MBP
Then make sure that your modem/router is connected to the internet.
You can try any other device, lights on the modem/router or use Eth cable to test.
Report back your findings.

Airport connected but no internet - why?

All of a sudden I can no longer wirelessly connect to the internet, although airport is connected and the signal is full. There doesn't seem to be any reason for this.
I was wondering if anyone had a fix for this!

Sounds like your not getting an IP address from your modem. I would start by powering your modem and router. Restart the modem and wait for it to connect to the internet. Then, restart the router.

I found a solution that has worked on both iPhone 4's I have that have had the same issues, and also including not being able to download updates in the App store.
Go to Settings > WiFi and turn it OFF.
Next go to General > Cellular > Cellular Data and turn it OFF
Next go back to Settings > WiFi and turn it ON, (wait a few seconds for it to sync with your network)
Finally go back to General > Cellular > Cellular Data and turn it ON.
I had the same issues on both my wife's phone, and my own, and it fixed it immediately without changing any proxy settings or reboots, (which I did try on my phone and did not work, but did not try on my wife's phone)
Hope this helps!

Can connect to wireless network but no internet?

Ok, I'm sure this is answered somewhere, but I'm tired.
At this point I'm not even sure if it can be done. But... I tried to connect to my mother's wireless internet using my Airport Extreme. I connected to the wireless but was unable to access the internet, or email. I tried manually setting the IP address, DHCP, router, DNS etc. But to no avail. It kept saying "Airport is connected to wireless ..., but it has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the internet". I got it to accept the new IP address and finally it said " Airport is connected to wireless..., and is connected to the internet" but I still could not get on. It does say on her computer that it is protected by a key. But I used her password to get on and it recognized it? But her password was not the key.
I thought that I could connect to any wireless network with the password?
Can this even be done?
Thanks
A

Duane,
Thanks for the response. I did not see anything about MAC filtering enabled. It did say encryption was enabled. All I foud was the IP address, router, DNS etc. It is a WEP password and it did accept the password to log on to the network. It's Time Warner and she has a PC. I tried everything, set up new location. I'm going to try to log on to my friends wireless network and see if I can do so there. If my memory serves me right, the last time I tried to log on to a wireless network it didn't work either. Also my mother does not know much about it, someone set it up for her and she is one to not understand these "new fangled things". So...
