    Connected to Network, No Internet Access


    Dear Friends,

    I'm sure you've seen this post ump-thousand times, but I no previous threads were able to guide me to a solution, so here we go once again.

    I moved to Mexico City a month ago and the apartment that I am renting came with wireless internet installed. Until two days ago, the internet ran smoothly. The modem is a Huawei device. The laptop from which I am trying to connect is is a Toshiba NB505, running Windows 7 Starter 32-bit. It has never given me problems in my sixteen months of ownership.

    The solution that usually works for me in this situation (resetting the modem and waiting 10 seconds) has not worked, neither have a random battery of other tests, like disabling the network adapters, removing the network in question from my wireless networks, fiddling with my IPv4 and IPv6 settings (they are both on Automatic acquire), and one command function.

    I am providing some of my details below. Any advice that leads to a solution would be most welcome. Thanks!

    I forgot to mention, the Huawei device is an EchoLife HG8247.

    looks like the DNS server for the adapter is listing a second address other than the gateway device...

    I fiddled with that and still have no internet access. Now, however, I am reading this:

    jmhc3: The HG8247 ONT is in your apartment right?

    I'm guessing that you get phone, TV, Internet through this device. Taking the next step might affect those services, but that's up to you. I've done this on Verizon devices without more than a minor interruption in service while the device resets - most of the time that's all it takes.

    HG8247 quick user manual
    HG8247 quick user guide
    Reset the ONT: insert a paper clip into the reset hole.

    Sometimes a bigger hammer is needed - you might have to reset the device to default values. It's best to write done the existing values before resetting the defaults. Log into the ONT following the instruction in the manual
    192.168.100.1 is the management console address you need to type into a browser address bar
    login: root
    pw: admin
    that is of course if you can get to the device and the default login/pw wasn't changed.


    Make sure you have known values before you default the device. There shouldn't bee too many - check them against the doc to see what might have been set differently than the default.

    If you're sure you have the information needed - go ahead and give it a shot.

    I would try the paper clip theory, but, unfortunately, I don't think I can since the modem serves other residents. I suppose I should just inform the landlady if there isn't a quick fix that I can achieve from my computer.

    Thanks for your help!

    Ok, that's why I asked if the ONT was in your apartment.

    I think the device could be shared but a more likely scenario is that each apartment has it's own device since it provides TV, Interent, and Plain Old Telephone System (POTS).
    I could be wrong

    good luck.

    I'm not familiar with the Juniper Network Connect Virtual Adapter, but if you see it in
    Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections
    -> try disabling it.

    Reconfigure all connections to obtain IP and DNS information automatically, and try connecting both wireless (post ipconfig /all) and then wired (post ipconfig /all) .

    The IPv4 address reported in your wired attempt, 169.254.77.2(Preferred), might be in the address range from the service provider to your ONT.
    iana.org said:
    Special-Use Addresses
    Several address ranges are reserved for "Special Use". These addresses all have restrictions of some sort placed on their use, and in general should not appear in normal use on the public Internet. The overview below briefly explains the purpose of these addresses – in general they are used in specialized technical contexts. They are described in more detail in RFC 5735.

    "Private Use" IP addresses:
    10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255
    172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255
    192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255

    These address blocks are reserved for use on private networks, and should never appear in the public Internet. There are millions of private networks (for example home firewalls often use them). People can use these address blocks without informing us, so we have no record of who uses which of these addresses.

    The point of private address space is to allow many organizations in different places to use the same addresses, and as long as these disconnected or self-contained islands of IP-speaking computers (private networks) are not connected, there is no problem. If you see an apparent attack, or spam, coming from one of these address ranges, then either it is coming from your local environment, your ISP, or the address has been "spoofed".

    The Private addresses are documented in RFC 1918. If you have further questions about RFC 1918 usage, please contact your ISP.

    "Autoconfiguration" IP Addresses: 169.254.0.0 - 169.254.255.255

    Addresses in the range 169.254.0.0 to 169.254.255.255 are used automatically by most network devices when they are configured to use IP, do not have a static IP Address assigned and are unable to obtain an IP address using DHCP.

    This traffic is intended to be confined to the local network, so the administrator of the local network should look for misconfigured hosts. Some ISPs inadvertently also permit this traffic, so you may also want to contact your ISP. This is documented in RFC 5735.
    Your ipconfig in post# 6 (wired connection attempt) shows IPv6 DNS servers, not IPv4 DNS servers. That might be normal where you are or it might be something the Juniper virtual adapter is doing.

    Thanks.
