MacBook Pro :: Can't Connect To Netgear WiFi

Jun 28, 2014

I have a Netgear N900 router and although I can find the signal I cannot connect to the wifi.  Each time I clicked on it, it would fail to connect and say to move closer to the router.  However the router has already been upgraded to make the signal strong enough to reach my room.  I have tried restarting the router and it has not worked.  I have gone into the router through my browser and reserved an IP address and changed my network settings on my computer to "using DHCP with manual address" and entered the reserved IP address.  I restarted my computer but now my macbook pro says that it is connected but I can't connect to the internet when i open a browser.  I'm not sure if I'm not reserving the IP address correctly or if there is another solution to this problem.

OS X :: Unable To Connect To Netgear Wifi Router / Update Not Working?

Apr 13, 2009

It took me a lOOONG time but I finally bit the bullet and bought a macbook. So far so good, I will be giving it a memory upgrade in a few weeks but right now I could use some serious help.

The computer won't connect to my Netgear WGR614 wifi router. I called Apple, they said the airport works and I may need a router firmware update. I updated the Netgear router. I have tried using the WEP, the WPA and also tried with the router set to zero security. The macbook still won't connect. Here is the kicker, my old windows based laptop and my wifes newer netbook picked up the new upgrade without issue.

The macbook (I loaded all the macbook updates with hardwire) will go through the network diagnostics and end up being unable solve the problem.

MacBook Pro :: Can't Connect To Internet - Using Wireless Modem To Connect To The Netgear Wgt624

Dec 27, 2007

I have a blackbook (intel core 2 duo) and I can connect to my landlord's wireless network (they have a netgear wgt624) but I can't actually use the web (Safari or Firefox will just "think"). I've tested the diagnostics and it confirms that my mac can connect to the network, but it cannot connect to the internet. The network uses WPA personal and it has a 19-aphanumeric passphrase.

*Also - would it be possible for me to extend the wireless range (and make it possible to browse the web) if I used my own 2wire wireless modem to connect to the netgear wgt624?

Software :: Macbook Pro Cannot Connect To Netgear

Mar 26, 2009

I cannot connect my 2006 macbook pro to landlord's netgear router. It won't connect at all. I can connect my windows XP laptop though with a netgear rangemax wireless PC card (not without it even though my ibm t41 has wireless built into it).

Password to the router is 13 digits long, 64 bit (according to the landlord) and WEP encrypted. I tried adding $ symbol but then it won't let me add some of the other password digits. Using Mac osx 10.4.11, 2.16ghz Intel core 2 duo.

Hardware :: Won't Work With Netgear DGN2000 / Wifi Drops Connection

Jan 16, 2010

I have a one year old Netgear wifi router that I use at home (two MacBooks and two iPhones connect to it).. Since Monday I have been battling with the the router via wifi (it works perfectly if I connect via cable). My macs or iPhones keep getting disconnected from the router, and when I try to reconnect it's a 10 minute hassle as it keeps timing out or stating the password is incorrect, when in fact it's not. When I do eventually reconnect via wifi it lasts only a short while before it disconnects again. And whenever I restart a computer from standby it won't automatically join the network and then I have to go through the whole timeout/incorrect password episode again. Also, before disconnecting it's sometimes incredibly slow. Even to connect to router's setup page takes five minutes load the page.

I've reset the modem, resetup my devices, chnages passwords, and still I get the same problem.

Hardware :: DIY Dual Band WIFI With AEBS And Netgear WR814v1

May 29, 2009

Having come across this article the other day[URL], I decided to blow the dust off of my ancient, Netgear WR814v1 wireless router in an effort to optimize my home network. My primary router, an older AEBS (802.11n), had been using a ratio mode of 802.11n (b/g compatible) @ 2.4GHz, so that I could connect some not-so-new devices such as my iPhone3G and my Wii.

If i can configure this Netgear monstrosity to my current network and have it broadcast at 2.4GHz, I'd be free to bump my AEBS up to 5GHz and enjoy significantly faster speeds overall. The only thing connected at 5GHz would be this - my shiny, new 15" MBP 2.66. The Netgear unit would be set in bridge mode (or its ancient equivalent), and would handle the lesser capable gadgets, including the iPhone, which would still be able to be used as an itunes remote and all that other lovely stuff.

OS X :: Mac Cannot Connect Wirelessly (Netgear DG834G)

Dec 1, 2006

Got my MacBook Pro today and can't connect wirelessly. Internet works fine when plugged in via LAN cable. I've noticed that whenever 'Mac friends' come round they can't connect either so it must be a Mac only problem. Obviously this wasn't really a problem but now I've converted it has become one.

Hardware :: How To Connect With Netgear Wireless Print Server

Jul 9, 2007

I have tried to connect to a Netgear WGPS606 wireless print server. I cannot get any document to print to it. The computer recognizes both printers that are connected to it and will print to each one if they are directly connected to the computer, however, I am unable to connect to the print server. Has anyone done this? I have contacted both Apple and Netgear and no one at either place

OS X :: MBP Connected Wirelessly To Netgear DG834 But Cannot Connect To The Internet?

Jul 24, 2009

I am trying to connect my MacBook Pro to a new Netgear router (the Mac worked flawlessly with the previous wireless router). It claims to be connected to the Internet through Network Diagnostics but cannot resolve any sites (or gmail etc) in both Safari & Firefox. (And yes, all updates have been installed, and yes it connects flawlessly via Ethernet.)

I don't think it's the new router as my iPhone happily connects through it as well as a wireless PC notebook that I have, so why is the MacBook Pro having a problem?

OS X :: Will The 802.11g AirPort Extreme Card Connect To A Netgear Router

I have an older MacPro 2006 model. I need a WiFi card for it. I want to know which one to get. Says a 802.11g AirPort Extreme will work. But is that only for Airport routers or can I use it with my Netgear router? Does it matter?

Intel Mac :: Won't Connect To Replacement Netgear N300 Router

Jun 9, 2012

My iMac could see and connect to my previous Netgear N300 router, which I replaced with the same model router after it got fried by a lightning strike. All my devices (ipods/tablet) see and connect to the replacement router, except my iMac. so the problem is with this desk top.It sees but refuses to connect to the new router. I suspect the imac is not allowing the previous profile to be overridden.

MacBook :: Will Old Titanium Running 10.3 Be Able To Connect To Wifi With A Usb Wifi Antenna?

Mar 7, 2012

I have a pretty old Titanium Mac Book that runs OS 10.3.9.  It's a moderately slow machine, but still works-  and although I realize that it won't be able to stream video or anything, I figure it would work for email, and basic web browsing-  But I'm wondering if it's going to be compatible with any new products such as a USB wifi antenna - because the room where I want to use it won't alow for an ethernet connection-   Also, will the old 10.3.9 OS allow me to connect wifi to the newer airport extreme base stations?

MacBook :: How To Connect Wifi

Sep 16, 2009

I have the original 1st generation Core Duo MacBook, and I'm having some trouble with the wifi. Often, when I go to a new location like to a library or a friend's house, I won't be able to connect to the wifi (it will timeout) or it will connect, but the signal strength will be very weak or the internet will be very slow.

It's not that it's out of range, I'm in an area that's known to have wifi and others around me can pick it up fine with full strength. At home, my wifi works fine, but the router is in the same room I use the computer in.

MacBook Pro :: Wifi Won't Connect To Anything

Feb 29, 2012

My Macbook Pro has been great since I got it last June.  Recently I just did an software update that I believe included something with the wifi/airport setting.  Now I cannot connect to ANYTHING.  My work wifi network I can connect with my iPhone and others have connected to my "puck" wifi from CLEAR.  I have ruled out that the connections I am trying to connect to are the problem.  When I try to connect with my MBP I it tries and then gets greyed out in the top with the exclamation point.  It says: 

Alert: No Internet Connection 

When I have tried to "fix" using the normal processes when clicking on it it says it cannot help me.  I have researched and cleared the network settings in the keychain access.  There was another thing that said to delete the apps.apple.alf.pfile or something like that but when I went to the area in Library/Preferences that file didnt exist.  I need my Macbook to access the Internet. 

I am running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3 It is a 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3

MacBook Air :: It Won't Connect To Wifi

Apr 4, 2012

I have a MacBook Air that is refusing to connect to the home network. The MacBook is a late 2011 model 3,1 core 2 duo, 4Gb RAM 128Gb SSD connecting to a virgin media super hub. Tried the hub with and without enabled security. Sometime the MacBook sees the hub when you try to connect it immediately errors with could not join..... A network timeout occurred.  The Bluetooth seems to be just as flaky. Won't connect to my iPhone?Thinking the wifi/Bluetooth card may be dodgy.

MacBook Air :: Can Connect To Wifi On 801.11g Only?

May 31, 2012

I have a MacBook Air. WIFI has been working just fine, until yesterday, after I turned it off to use a LAN network via USB adapter. Ever since I have not been able to reconnect via WIFI, and I get the message (that a lot of people get) of "wifi has the sel-assigned IP address and will not connect to the Internet." I've tried restart, shut-down and wait, tossed preferences, removed preferred networks, renewed DHCP Lease, all repeatedly, but to no avail. 

the strange thing was, today I was somewhere that had 801.11g and 801.11n networks, and I was able to connect on the g network, but not on n. And what was more strange, was that the same Ethernet Lan connection I used yesterday no longer allows me to connect to the Internet, even though the sidebar says Ethernet was connected and showed green light. 

At the same time my iPhone and iPad can both connect to any of the networks.

MacBook Pro :: It Can't Connect To WiFi

Jun 13, 2012

Just bought my daughter a 13.6" 2.4 GHz MacBook Pro, and it connects fine to my Apple TimeCapsule in 2.4 GHz & 5 GHz mode with no issues using DHCP. However, when my daughter brings the laptop to her mother's house, and attempts to connect it to her Cisco 2Wire160 (802.11g using WEP) router with DHCP, it doesn't connect. She can select the router, but it doesn't prompt for a password.

When she goes into System Preferences -> Network, WiFi say something about a self-assigned IP address of 169.x.x.x., when that router is chosen.

If I have her delete the router from Advanced in the Preferred Network section, and then connect to any of the neighbor's routers, she's immediately prompted for a password. Attempting to re-connect to the 2Wire160, still doesn't prompt for a password.

MacBook Pro :: 10.7.3 Won't Connect To Schools Wifi

Mar 13, 2012

Yesterday I purchased a new Macbook Pro and brought it to use on campus today and although the wireless status bar said I was connected I wasn't able to navigate the internet. It would sometimes prompt me to enter my atlas login information but after clicking submit wouldn't do anything or the apple homepage on safari would open and I wouldn't be able to navigate to anywhere else.I called the help desk and was told to go to the tech room, after going there and was told I couldn't be helped I was sent to another lady who called someone and by merely restarting my laptop I was able to navigate the internet. After that I went back to the building I spend all my time in and the I was back to square one. I have searched numerous forums with similar issues and attempted as much as I understood and could and am still unable to connect.Please help, I need so badly to be able to connect to wifi on this computer while at school!

MacBook Air :: Why Does Wifi Not Connect To A Network

Mar 25, 2012

Since about 2 days ago, my wifi on my Macbook air running 10.7.3 Lion does not connect to any wireless network, whether it's naked, WEP encrypted, or WP2 encrypted.  It fails on 'Network Settings' Network Status step (Wi-fi and Wi-fi settings are 'green').  In fact, I can use my other Macbook running 10.7.2 Lion as well as my Android phone to connect to the wireless networks my Macbook air cannot connect to.   

What I find really weird is I tried re-installing Lion on my Macbook air using the 'command-R' key on bootup.  I was able to successfully connect to my WEP encrypted router during the re-install. But once it was done and re-booted I once again cannot connect to any wifi. 

So something really funny is going on while OS-X is fully booted on my Macbook air. 

This is pretty crummy situation to be in because the Macbook airs don't have a default ethernet jack built into it, so the computer is somewhat useless.
