Inet 10.10.6.6 -> 10.10.6.5 netmask 0xffffffffīut reading its man page only makes me realize how little I know of both the software and hardware parts of this (about this much -> Inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 Ifconfig reports the following: lo0: flags=804 I've never had to configure anything else 'manually' before default settings always worked. I am not aware of any possible modem/router problems I might be having – if so, they appeared overnight. I have some software crucial for work that has been proven incompatible with newer versions of OS X. I run a pretty old OS: 10.7.5 – but not by choice. or reinstall the OS' under the last one, as it does not sound too appealing. I must admit that I did not follow the suggestion '. This seems to cover answers to similar issues such as in Wi-Fi no longer connecting to the internet and MacBook connects to network over Ethernet but not WiFi.

created a new user (which might have solved it if it's due to local settings).deleted the Keychain entry for the password, as per a YouTube movie that 'works for some'.copied the EtherNet IP address to Wi-Fi's TCP/IP, using 'DHCP with Manual Address' as per.deleted files such as .plist, ist, and ist, and some more, as per and similar pages.restarted my modem (although Internet works correctly through the Mac).Indeed, if I reconnect my iPad to this network, it warns that 'This network is not connected to the Internet' (and 'Join anyway' does, as expected, nothing). (As I found, the 169 here is a dummy IP address that indicates no connection can be made.)

Wi-Fi has the self-assigned IP address and will not be able to connect to the Internet. It worked all fine and dandy until yesterday. Nothing router or modem based, as far as I am aware. On my iPad, I could select it, enter my password, and enjoy all the couch-based browsing I wanted. I have my Mac switched on most the time, and to connect to my iPad I set up a network for Wifi: Create Network > Channel 11 > Security 128-Bit WEP. The set-up that has worked for me for years and years on end suddenly – as of this morning – failed to work.
