Thread: Problems connecting Wi-fi to my apple MAC

i got a bsnl BB, and got a Apple Mac laptop

my bsnl modem is ZTE (blue color), i have setup my wireless and its working perfectly fine on my other laptop which has XP in it....

The prob in my mac is, the laptop is showing my connection and even getting connected but unable to view web pages....

tried contacting the BSNL ppl but they r the worst ppl ever found on earth

plz help me.... are the setting to be done on my Modem or MAC

did you create a network in MAC? like in xp system? Same ssid entered in modem wifi page.
In modem enable DHCP.
Network settings obtain Ip address automatically.
try one system at a time or connect in "AlwaysON" PPP/PPPoE
mode ( userID/PW entered in wan page )
see wa 3002-G4 link for settings. menu pages will be similar for wifi model.

@essbebe

thanks for the reply but tried tat too but still its not able to work

any other suggestion??

Please post copy/pase here with XP OS system.
ipconfig /all
compare with the MAC OS system.
I am on user acct on MacBook laptop, and unable to check
network settings. ( also new to mac OS)
Basically the SSID ID entered in modem wifi page should appear in any wifi network settings: either secured or unsecured.
Modem settings are common to both OS>
( any option to add "MAC" address in modem wifi white list ?
Enable and enter for both laptops.

Where did you entered. You need to enter in white list field. You can also manage without that. Follow these steps.

1. Configure you modem in PPPoE

2. Enable DHCP in the modem

3. In the TCP/IP properties of the connection, set " Obtain IP address automatically.

@meetdilip

what is white list?? where can i find tht


the other 3 steps which u have written is already done and its not working


my mac works absolutely fine with my office Airtel Wi-fi; its just connect and use no setting done so far

Refer this

From the screen shot It appears that your mac book is able to obtain ip address and default gateway.
at command prompt use the following command

Ping 192.168.1.1

post the results and

ping Yahoo!

post the results.

I cant find white list.... this is my mac filter screen shot

same as "whitelist" which allows system with MAC data entered.
You can use either "allow " or disabled button.

UTSTAR WA3002-G4 quick reference

post screen shots of your WIFI network settings.
Have you selected Airport or ethernet?
Mine shows ethernet and also airport on.

Hi You had any luck on resolving this issue , i have got the same problem with my mac and BSNL Broadband connection. For me once i tried to connect the laptop with the modem. modem got hanged or went to abnormal state. Please reply your solution for this issue.

@ merameshj

Did you tried the solutions in previous posts ? Mention your mode of connection, PPPoE or Bridge ?

Also mention modem/wifi router model /make/number.
