Or could someone be hogging bandwidth? If it is only your Mac, is Software Update downloading in the background? Could something else be running?Īlso, go to Safari > Reset Safari… and tick every box. Is it slow on every computer in your house? If so, it could be to do with the network or internet connection as opposed to your Mac. Type this into a web browser to open the settings screen. With Apple routers, open AirPort Utility and look in the Airport > Wireless tab, or if you have a third-party model, find the router IP address in System Preferences > Network > Ethernet. If not, plug an Ethernet lead between your Mac and the router to check the network name. If you know the exact network name and security type, choose Join Other Network… from the AirPort menu and type in the name. If you've got an Apple router, this is called a Closed Network.
If it doesn't, the network name, or SSID, may have been hidden. The router's on and the relevant lights are lit – the signal doesn't go on forever, so move closer to the box and see if it shows up in your network list. Many routers have a setup wizard (Apple's is in AirPort Utility third-party ones will be in the setup screens in Safari) work through this. If your Mac's talking to the router and you've still got no connection, the problem's between the router and the internet. If you're trying to connect by AirPort and this doesn't work, try plugging an Ethernet lead directly between your Mac and the router? Any luck? If so, it looks like the problem's with the AirPort network (is MAC address filtering enabled, for example?). If your Mac can talk to the router, it'll appear in AirPort Utility (Apple routers), in Safari by typing its IP address into the Address bar to open the setup screen (for third-party models, find the IP address in System Preferences > Network > AirPort/ Ethernet), or in the setup software that some routers have.
