[QUOTE="sharp21, post: 307164, member: 25576"] So I downloaded aMSN, so I could chat while using video. It really slowed everything down so I got rid of it, but it must have changed some settings because now I cant get online! When I go up top to the internet status symbol & open the connection it says im connected & I have a decent signal level. But when i go into system preferencesthen to network & check network status, it says that Airport is connected to the network linksys, but it has a self assigned IP address & may not be able to connect to the internet, with a yellow status light... What gives?! I used to just turn it on & it would connect to any available local network. Its still seeing the network but i cant get online at all! Im sure it has something to do with the self assigned IP, but dont know where to change it or what to change it to. Also, when i open the net diagnostics from safari it says that airport, airport settings, network settings are all okay, but isp, internet & server have all failed.. Any help would be very appreciated. S. [/QUOTE]
