Alright so here is the problem my iBook, (g4, 1.33ghz, 12" 10.4.11) connects no problem to my router via airport (confirmed via router log, ip is leased) BUT I am not able to get safari nor firefox to connect to the internet.
Any suggestions?
 
new problem within the last week or so. Router and airport talk just fine (verified via router log files showing ibooks mac address leasing properly), hell I can even look at the ibook via airport from my mbp! I'm almost thinking of just doing a reinstall of tiger (or I can upgrade to 10.5), but I'm not sure it'll fix it.

I'll maybe try zapping the pram see if it helps - (edit) didn't help :(
 
CanadaRAM, that didn't work. Jut got it to though. I assigned a static ip and viola it works! (must be because we have so much on the network, 2 ps3's, wireless printer, and 2 lappys) thanks for your help guys:)
