[QUOTE="kilcillian, post: 1328422, member: 224296"] Our internet works fine with wireless pc's and with the mac connected via ethernet cable. but when we try to connect with the airport, it says its connected and has full strength but when a browser is opened, we aren't connected. I've tried: resetting the modem/router (provided by our ISP) and turning airport on and off. I've checked to make sure its using DHCP. When I originally tried "join other network" and manually entered our network and password i used WPA. Nothing happened. When I switched it to WPA2 it suddenly worked. But after testing putting the mac to sleep for a few hours and coming back to it, it no longer works with WPA or WPA2. It works fine on other networks, but we just got internet installed so all the computers in the apartment can connect (i'm on a wireless-incapable pc so I needed a modem) while the mac has been using a local pay for service wifi connection.
