I have a new mg2920 and can not connect wirelessly to my MAC OSX

Check you firewalls. Sometimes you will have to allow certain mac addresses or certain ip addresses (may be less secure than the mac address), then change sharing level to full, before things begin to work.

Please post back and let me know if this helps!

Belkin surf is not compatible with any versions of Mac osX...Take it back to stores...

The list of belkin adapters that supports MAC OSX are...
buy any of the following models...
f5d9050 v4
f5d6050 v2
f5d5055 v1 & v2

try removing the passkey and security on the linksys

then enable reverse authenication, by allowing only specific MAC addresses to access the router. ( MAC FILTERING ) ONLY ALLOW

then add the MAC addresses of your IBOOK and what ever else you have..

simple and secure :)

I get the feeling it is a security problem on your wireless access point. Try turning security off temporarily and see if the problem goes away.

The fact that you can connect to other networks tells me that your mac book network config is ok.

The reason the manual ip configuration doesn't work is because wireless connection connection has not succeeded. Kind of like not having the cable connected and expecting to find your DHCP server.

One thing that comes to mind and drove me completely insane once is your wireless network name (ssid) is case sensitive. So homenet is different from Homenet for example and you won't get any decent error messages.

With the security make it as simple as you can then slowly turn stuff back on (WEP and MAC filters for example) until it breakes again. Then you will know where your problem is.

Hope this helps.

I have a wireless Mac ,version osX.4.11. I have a Colorsmart HP Priner 4100. I have created documents in IWorks Pages. I can not print directly. I have to save the doc as a PDF email, email to myself, go to Safari, then the printer will print. What am I doing wrong?????

I have a Mac Pro and a Belkin F5D 7230-4 Router. The Mac links to the WiFi but will not go on to the internet. The Router works fine with a wired PC and other wireless PCs. I have updated the Belkin with the latest Firmware but it does not help. I have tried powering down the Router and Modem

Gmac

When yuour question starts with I have a brand new MAC, probably not.

The default address on a routher is 192.168.1.1 We set them up by plugging a network cable into one of the 4 ports (not WAN) and setting the address of our computer to 192.168.1.x where x is greater than 1 and less than 255. THen we open up Internet Explorer and key in 192.168.1.1 into the address line.

After that, the router will go into quick configure and set itself up, or you can try www.routerlogin.com if you're on the same domain in the network.

The "jargon" your ISP will give you is how the router needs to be provisioned. You may have DNS servers, whether it's DHCP or if you have DSL, typically you need to set PPoE stuff up. With good luck, the auto configure will do all of the things you need.

Now you just have to figure out how to make the MAC change its TCP-IP address :-)

candice,

you can go to this links click here. Select the model of your belkin router and it will give you a guide on how to enalbe port for warding.

Any router will work, TCP/IP is a network standard, definately double check the cables. Your DSL modem is usually 192.168.254.254. and the router is usually 192.168.1.1. Check your documentation for the default IP. Once you know it type it in to the broswer in your Mac. Before doing so connect with an ethernet cable, purchase a new one if necessary. Connect from the <--> labeled port on the mac, or ethernet port. These wires are not like phone lines, they have 8 wires instead of 4/6. The router usually has ports on the back labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, and WAN. the 1-4 ports are LAN and that is also labeled on there. Plug the mac into port 1 and any other computers in after you get internet. once the physical connection is recognized. Go to your browser in the mac and proceed. if you get a web based router configuration page your router is working, then make the WAN connection to the ethernet port on the back of the dsl mode. Be sure your cables are good. Also go to your control panel and make sure your internet is enabled in your network section.

Based upon the way you worded the message, you were trying to get the Mac working wirelessly? The description of how you were trying to set up your network (SysPref\Net\BuiltInEthernet) is for WIRED connections, not wireless. If you are running OSX and you have a built-in wireless adapter, use System Preferences\Network\Airport choice to set up for wireless connections. If you are trying to use the wire either because you don't have a wireless card or it is not working, check to make sure that the cable is good...maybe hijack the cable that you know works for your PC and test it. Please let me know if I am on the right track to solve the problem.
