Does the WIFI router give DHCP ip addresses? What's your IP address? Is it 169.254.x.x? If yes, then you aren't getting an IP from the DHCP server or the DHCP service is not enabled and you'll have to configure your IP address manually depending on the way the WIFI router is configured.

It is a BSNL broadband connection with a ZTE modem/router. My mac connects to the network, but is not able to connect to the Internet. The network has no security password, I'm using MAC filtering instead to prevent misuse. I believe it is an always-on connection. The main desktop runs Ubuntu. How can I solve this? (I seem to be having a similar issue with my new HTC One-V, which connects to the network but not to the Internet). Thanks for any answers.
