Q: No Internet Connection OSX 10.6.8

Use the ethernet to connect to the internet.

====================

If you insist on using wireless....

Try the basics first:

   Change your router channel number.  Most times this works & is all you have to do.

Disconnect & reconnect your modem.  unplug it for about 10 seconds.  Plug it back in.  Do the same for Apple’s routers.  Wait for everything to reboot.

System Preferences>Network

Click the Assist Me button.

In the next window that pops up, click the Diagnostic button & do the necessary.

This worked.

I was getting ready to reload a clean OS since nothing worked on the Mac...I have very reliable D-Link DIR-655, but it may be getting old now. All my other macs work fine but ONE.

Decided to Restore Router to default settings... THAT did it! Working Good Now.

Hope this helps.
