Gmail/yahoo over Wifi

I have put into place (2) WAP321 wifi routers and users are not able to check gmail or yahoo accounts when connected wifi.  I have employees on laptops and when they are using a wired connection they can access these accounts without any problems but when they are on the wifi it is unable to connect to the mail accounts.  Any help on adding this to my routers would be appreciated.
Thanks                  

DNS are the same for wired/wireless.  I can access the sites from any browser on wired/wireless but still not able to access them through ios/android mail client.  I can access the email site directly on an IPad but when I use the Mail feature that works anywhere else I get - "The mails server "imap.gmail.com" is not responding.  This is also true with some other pop/imap accounts employees have on their IPhones.  Not sure what is going on, I personally have Cisco wireless routers at home and can get these connections to work there but at work they are being blocked.  On our firewall we are not blocking any of these sites.
I have run tracert and ping on an IPad and get replys back from the IP.

  • I can't access my Yahoo mail on Iphone 4s over wifi at work. "Checking for mail" is going on forever. Any idea?

    I can't access my Yahoo mail on Iphone 4s over wifi at work. "Checking for mail" is going on forever. Any idea?

    You cannot change the incoming mail ports on the iPhone,  As KiltedTim mentions, if it works elsewhere on 3g and wifi, then it almost certainly is your employers firewall blocking access.

  • Yahoo mail problem over WiFi

    When i am connected to WiFi and try to check my yahoo mail it says "cannot get mail. connection to the server 'xxxxxx' failed." this only happens when connected to wifi and only half the time. sometimes i can get it over wifi but not always. ive tried everything to fix it like turn on and off the account, retype password, delete and reconfigure account.

    Push has worked fine for me on 3G, Wi-Fi, and Edge. Try restarting your iphone and see if that makes a difference. Hold down the sleep button, slide the power off slider to the right, then once it's off press down on the sleep button again.

  • Can't send email over EDGE from hosted gmail domain. Works fine over WIFI

    I'm trying to send email from my google apps hosted doman over EDGE network.
    I'm using port 587, SSL, authentication: password.
    Works fine over WIFI but edge network rejects it every time.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Ben

    I'm running into the exact same issue. However, I am running my own mail server and not going through Gmail. On wi-fi, everything works fine. On Edge, I receive the error message indicating that the server is not responding, unable to connect to server, etc. I spoke to Apple support and they just walked me through the settings and said that they did not know what was wrong and suspected there is something wrong with the phone and wanted me to take it to the retail store to have them look at it and possibly send it in for repair. When I spoke to ATT they said that they are not experiencing any disruptions in the Edge network and that they also suspect it is the phone. I personally do not believe it is a defective phone. I upgraded my phone a couple of days ago the 1.1.2 firmware and within 24 hours later I started having this problem. I also tried setting up a connection to my .mac account and experienced the exact same thing there, so I know it is not isolated to my mail server. Funny thing is, I can access the internet over the Edge network just fine, so this has something to do with either the mail ports being blocked somehow within the Edge network or has to do something with the Mail Application on the iPhone which is not recognizing or not able to connect through the establised Edge connection. Maybe there is some sort of firewall on the iPhone that is blocking those ports? If anyone from Apple or ATT is listening, please investigate! I do not want to mail my phone in for repair when it is a perfectly good phone and may be able to be fixed with another firmware update.

  • Exchange Emails over WiFi

    For the last 3 days or so, I'm not able to get my exchange emails over wifi on my mac and iPhone 5 (mail app). The home wifi is working just fine as i'm able to connect and get all the other mails from gmail and hotmail but when it comes to my exchange account, I get an error 'can't connect due to network error'.
    Although, I'm able to get my exchange emails over cellular data connection both on my mac and iPhone. Please suggest.

    Hi Razmee,
    Thanks for the reply. I've tried that but my IT guys are a nocturnal bunch of grumps. It's not officially a work appliance, therefore not officially their problem. The fact I spend my own dollars to improve my efficiency and contactability is lost on them.
    Cheers

  • Content filters on public mail i.e. gmail, yahoo etc

    is there a way to create content policies on web security appliances on information sent on public mails( gmail yahoo ) or IMs?
    it might sound stupid as you cannot control the mail server so filter what can be sent out or not but on the other hand you can monitor the web traffic
    :-)

    You might be referring to our DLP (Data Loss Prevention) seen on 6.0 and above. Below is a clip from our User Guide, you can search for that section to see if it fits your needs.
    DATA SECURITY AND EXTERNAL DLP POLICIES OVERVIEW
    In the Information Age, your organization’s data is one of its most prized possessions. Your
    organization spends a lot of money making data available to your employees, customers, and
    partners. Data is always on the move by traveling over the web and email. This increased
    access poses challenges for information security professionals to figure out how to prevent the
    malicious, accidental, or unintentional loss of sensitive and proprietary information.
    The IronPort Web Security appliance secures your data by providing the following
    capabilities:
    • IronPort Data Security Filters. The IronPort Data Security Filters on the Web Security
    appliance evaluate data leaving the network over HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP to control what
    data goes where and how and by whom.
    • Third party data loss prevention (DLP) integration. The Web Security appliance integrates
    with leading third party content-aware DLP systems that identify and protect sensitive
    data. The Web Proxy uses the Internet Content Adaptation Protocol (ICAP) which is a
    lightweight HTTP based protocol that allows proxy servers to offload content scanning to
    external systems. By offloading the content scanning to dedicated external systems, the
    Web Proxy can take advantage of the deep content scanning in other products while
    being free to perform other Web Proxy functions with minimal performance impact.

  • Email over wifi at work

    I'm having some issues getting email to work on my iphone over wifi. When I am at home, everything works using my wireless network. When I'm at work however, Safari, Youtube and Google Maps work great (really fast actually)...however my email (which is set up for gmail) won't connect to the server.
    Basically it stays stuck on "checking for mail". Sometimes it will stay there indefinitely...other times, after a few minutes, it will give a message about the connection to pop.gmail.com failing. It also won't send email. It stays stuck on "sending..." for a few minutes then says "Cannot Send Mail. The connection to the server smtp.gmail.com" failed."
    The main difference between my wireless network at home and at work is that in order to use the internet on my iphone at all at work, i first have to go to an internal website in safari and enter a user name and password. I did ask one of our IT guys and he told me that wireless account is in the DMZ so it shouldn't be blocking any of the ports.
    I don't get much (usually none at all) signal for at&t in my office. However, if I go somewhere that I get signal and turn off the wifi, everything works fine. It sort of sounds to me like it's trying to use EDGE just for email, but really I have no clue.
    Any ideas?

    Man was I glad to find your post. I have been having the exact problem since yesterday using Network Sharing (wifi) from my imac to both my iphone and mbp. I thought it was a .mac problem because they have been having issues and .mac is the only mail account I have on iphone and mbp.
    I had been using it successfully with all options checked in the advanced pane of the firewall settings, that is udp, logging, and stealth. So when I saw your post I turned off the firewall, sent a test mssg, and it worked. Turned firewall back on, sent another test mssg, and it still worked. Then it stopped working again! I posted in the ".mac on your desktop forum" earlier today and sent two mssgs to support.
    I only recently learned of Network Sharing and was glad I wouldn't have to get an airport base station just to share wifi with my (then only) MBP. But with this and the fact that Network Sharing only allows WEP and not WPA I guess I will have to shell out the bucks.
    Could Network sharing have a limitation of just one device? I never had a problem until I got the iPhone and started using it in addition to the MBP to receive wifi from my imac.
    Basically it stays stuck on "checking for mail".
    I get this with a home network where I'm using a
    computer's built Airport as a wireless router (WiFi)
    to share an ethernet internet connection (personal
    web sharing). It turns out I can only get email on
    the iPhone when the built-in Firewall is turned
    off...not acceptable. I probably need to enable some
    port, but enabling the available ports with the
    built-in firewall does not help. Also found UDP
    traffic cannot be blocked to get web access at all.
    Might need a more sophisticated firewall, but will
    probably just get a dedicated wireless router
    (Airport) and then things should work ok. If that
    makes sense...

  • IOS devices and Exchange won't connect over Wifi

    Neither my ipad nor my iphone 5 will connect with my exchange server over my wifi network.  The problem is limited to IOS devices on wifi and Exchange.  The phone will connect with exchange over the cellular network.  My windows laptop works fine over wifi with exchange and everything else.  The ipad and iphone will connect to wifi and have no problems with web browsing, gmail, etc.  I've used both devices successfully for months and the problem started yesterday.  I did not do any IOS updates yesterday.
    iPad and iPhone are both on IOS 7.0.4
    The message on the screen:  Cannot Get Mail.  Server error.  Contact your server administrator.
    It also says:  Cannot Get Mail.  The connection to the server failed.
    What I've tried:
    Resetting network settings (only tried on iPad, since it didn't work)
    Powering off each device then turning back on
    Powered down the wireless router and powered back up
    Confirmed with the exhange hosting company (GoDaddy) that they've made no changes

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • Email won't send over wifi

    i can send email fine over wifi, but when i send an email i have to turn wifi off before it will send. i dont get an error message or anything, it just says sending at the bottom of the screen with the little circle. the same thing is happening with my ipad. any ideas? ive done everything ive found on the internet but nothing has worked. it is my college's wifi and it worked fine in the spring if that's any help.

    I'm having the same problem. However, the original post was not concise. Here's what I think they meant--
    When using WiFi, receiving email works fine; however sending email does not. The outgoing item seems to hang in the Outbox and never goes. It's happened consistently to me on my new phone (5s). I can cause it to send by disabling WiFi for a moment. This is getting tedious.
    I went into my mail configuration and checked my settings. They appear fine. The free version of Yahoo! doesn't not include the use of standard POP3 protocol and they've wired some sort of back door into the iPhone's mail client. You'd have to pay Yahoo! to get an SMTP server address and use normal POP3 protocols. I'm OK with this as it's obviously Yahoo's attempt to lure iPhone customers.
    Meanwhile, I've deleted my Yahoo account configuration on my phone and set it up from scratch. That didn't work and I still have the same problem.
    As a prediction, I'm thinking this is some sort of problem with the mail program's proprietary access to Yahoo's promotional mail service and not a configuration problem. This is not the user's fault, it's something else IMHO. I'm finding it odd that turning off my WiFi allows the mail to finally get sent. This last time, I had to turn off and turn back on Airport mode also.
    Very weird.

  • Wireless sync option not available on Itunes 10.5.  After updating my iphone to IOS 5, the "sync over wifi" option is not being displayed in itunes.

    hi, I managed to update both Itunes and my ios to the latest versions (10.5 and 5 respectively).  I'm unable to see the "Sync over wifi" option in itunes.  Can anyone help?

    Maybe that's why I got lucky?  I have 10.7.2.  I have to tell you howeer that I did not check any check box in settings on the Notebook to enable Wifi sync, or in iTunes on the notebook.  I did have options when setting up the iPad and I selected sync with computer rather than back up to cloud.   Maybe that is another difference?  I feel feel fortunate that as I type this my iPad is syncing over wifi and you're all having trouble.
    Just to confirm I have iTunes 10.5  MacOSX 10.7.2 and iOS5 installed on the iPad.  I'm going to dive in and do the phone now too.  I will report any troubles, or pay more careful attention when the iCloud settings and set up come on the screen.  Maybe I did something else I don't remember.

  • Can someone help me with backing up my iphone over wifi then restoring it?

    basically i wanted to download the new ios 8 on my iphone 5c, i did not have enough memory and was unable to get onto a laptop/pc. i went onto settings>icloud>storage&backup>back up over wifi. i enable back up over wifi so when connected to wifi it will automatically back up, anyway after enabling this i pressed back up now and it backed my iphone up. i then started to delete apps and PHOTOS to get enough space, i then was able to get onto a laptop and tried to restore my iphone but it would not let me . it said i had to download ios 8 first then it would restore my device so i tried this and it will not download the new update, i still dont have enough memory to download the update but i do not want to delete more photos if i will be un able to get them back.
    basically if i delete more photos to make enough space for ios 8, and then restore my iphone will i get all of the photos, apps and games i had before i started to delete them (baring in mind i did back up my iphone over wifi)
    please help getting very worried over this, thanks

  • IPad 3 not showing up in iTunes (Win7_64) over WiFi

    I have an iPad 3 I'm trying to sync over my WLAN.  It's running iOS 7.1 and connecting to iTunes 11.2.2.3 on Windows 7 64-bit.  Upon launching iTunes, the device will appear in the left navigation pane after about 10 seconds, and will stay there (greyed out with a spinning progress wheel) for about 15-20 seconds before it disappears.  I am never able to display the status or contents of the device over a wireless connection.
    -USB connections do work and I am able to manage, browse, update and sync the device.
    -I have tried connecting over USB and checking/unchecking the "Sync over WiFi" box.  That has not solved the problem.
    -I have tried establishing custom inbound and outbound Windows Firewall rules to allow all traffic to all programs and ports  from the iPad's internal IP (10.10.10.18 on a /8 network), but that hasn't fixed the problem.
    -AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe, AppleMobileDeviceService.exe, iCloudServices.exe, iPodService.exe, iTunesHelper.exe, iTunes.exe and mDNSResponder.exe are all running at the time of attempted (and failed) sync.
    -Wireless syncing worked properly while on iOS 5.  Really regretting updating to iOS 7 right now.  Lesson learned, unlikely to ever update again.
    I've tried a number of solutions but as I cannot recall 100% of what I've already tried, I am willing to start at square one to get this resolved.  For what it's worth, I'm a 14-year IT professional so you can talk to me about pinging, firewall rules, subnets (iPad and PC running iTunes are on the same subnet), protocols and ports and I will know what you're talking about.  Hope that helps speed things along.
    Any assistance you can render would be most appreciated.

    Wireless Sync
    To set up Wi-Fi syncing, connect your iOS device to your computer with the included USB cable.
    Click the Device button in the upper-right corner. (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button first.)
    If you don't see your device, choose View > Hide Sidebar.
    In the Summary tab, select "Sync with this [device] over Wi-Fi."
    When the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes, and you can sync it.
    The iOS device will sync automatically when the following conditions are true:
    The iOS device is charging.
    iTunes is open on the computer.
    The iOS device and the computer are on the same Wi-Fi network.
    While the iOS device is in the left-hand column of iTunes, you can select the content tabs and configure sync options.
    Click Apply or Sync to sync the iOS device.

  • 320N Freezes when trying to transfer data over wifi

    I have the 320N and I am very frusterated.  I would just take it back, but I bought it brand new on Amazon.com, meaning I will have to pay shipping because I threw out the box and the return shipping form for RMA's!  I don't even know if Amazon will take it back without that paperwork, but anyway here's the issue...
    I don't have any N cards yet, but I upgraded to this router because my home internet service is faster than what my older WRT-54g could route.  This new router does route and I can now achieve the rated speeds of my ISP (50/10 mbps). 
    I can transfer large files 6+ GB WIRED between any of the LAN ports on this device.  However if I try to transfer much data over wifi, the router will simply stop working.  The lights on the front work fine, they blink like there is activity, and the power LED is solid, but it won't pass traffic and the wifi SSID dissapears.  I run a constant ping to the router (ping -t 192.168.1.1) and I get <1ms replies.  On my laptop I initiate a download of a 1GB file which is shared in my windows 7 homegroup.  Within a minute or two the constant ping to the router starts timing out.  Internet access to anything (wired or wireless) instantly ceases.  New introduced devices will not grab a DHCP address.  Existing PC's whom already have their DHCP address can talk to each other only if wired.  The wireless transmitter stops broadcasting the network and devices no longer see it on the airwaves.  The only way to fix it is to power cycle it.
    It doesn't even have to be a large file over wifi to transfer.  Just now as I'm typing this post I noticed the constant ping on my other monitor started timing out.  I power cycled the router in time for me to submit this post.  In fact I had to do it three times in the time it took me to write this post.  This is the most frustrating experience I've had with any wifi ap/router, and I play with Cisco gear at work that run real IOS.
    Here's what I tried so far.
    Reset factory defaults by holding in the rear reset button for over 30 seconds.
    I can confirm this resets the defaults as the password and all other settings are back to default.
    I tried WPA2 Personal.  I tried WPA.  Router still freezes.
    I tried it with just the default settings.  Router still freezes.
    I've reset the router numerous times.  Still freezes.
    Power cycle it for more than a minute.  Still freezes.
    Reflash it with Linksys's latest firmware.  Still freezes.
    What do I do next?  I have a feeling it's the same problem as in a lot of the HP Printer firmware boards.  That problem is poor solder joints on the BGA processor connection.  To fix that you put the formatter board in an oven at 400 degrees for 5 to 8 minutes.  After that time you just let it cool to room temperature.  The oven heats the poor solder joints enough so that it reseats and gets a better connection.  There are hundreds of posts of success on this.  I also hear that the solder connection problem exists for many of the older revision Xbox 360 game consoles causing the infamous "Red Ring of Death".
    So do I try to fight with Amazon to take this back and eat the shipping?
    Do I void my warranty, open the device up and put the board in the oven?
    Do I buy another router from a closer store, but then put this one in the box and take it back?
    Do I just cut my losses?
    Do I just use this as a wired router (disable Wifi) and hook up my WRT-54g and make that act as just an access point?
    Thanks for the advice. 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Ok I've had my replacement 320N for almost 1 full week now, and while at first it was fine, come Sunday it appears to freeze during heavy transfers.  I was streaming an HD movie to the laptop connected to the TV.  3/4ths of the way through the movie it started skipping.  What do you know, the whole network was down.  No internet or anything.  Power cycle the router and everything was back up.  Needless to say, I finished the movie through the wired connection.  The next day I tried copying 8GB of data wirelessly.  The SSID vanished 1/3rd of the way in during the transfer.
    What is wrong with this stuff?  Linksys doesn't make things like they used to.  This 320N is so cheaply made I don't think I could recommend it to anyone.  I might see if I can send this back to Amazon and get a Netgear.

  • I am trying to download iOS 5.1 on my iPhone and iPad. Both times it tries connecting to the software update server and just hangs there. I've tried doing both over wifi and get error message. What do I do?

    I cannot download the ios 5.1. I'v tried doing it through itunes after downloading the latest itunes. It says that my phone and ipad both have new updates and tries to coonect to update software server. That is where it hangs up and just keeps trying to connect but never does. Then when I try to update my devices over wifi, it tries and thens gives me a download failed message after a few minutes. What do I do?

    This has solved loads of people who have this issue and have used an alternate DNS setting.  Below are instructions for both iPhone OTA and on you Mac
    If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try an OTA (over the air update)

    Delete everything in DNS and replace it with 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
    Try again
    If this works, you will probably want to remove the WiFi network using "Forget This Network" and then reconnect to it to get your original DNS servers back. Alternatively, make a note of the original DNS servers before deleting them and replace it after you are done.
    If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try through iTunes
    On your Mac
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Network.
    Select the network connection service you want to use (such as Wi-Fi or Ethernet, unless you named it something else) from the list, and then click Advanced.
    Click DNS, and then click Add at the bottom of the DNS Servers list. Enter the IPv4 address for the DNS server.
    You can use OpenDNS
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    or
    You can Google Public DNS if you want
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4
    I have actually repointed my routers DNS so all my devices now point to OpenDNS servers

  • Does BIS over wifi depend on type of BIS Plan???

    Hi all
    few days back i bought my first BB ( Curve 8520) & activated BSNL (India) BIS LITE Plan (unlimited e-mail access only, no browser, no social networks etc. ) which is perfect for my needs.
    My  problem is i can't get BIS data services over wifi - white dash indication instead of green check in front of wifi connection option, no e-mail over wifi, only browsing is possible.  As my office is basement where GSM Signal aren't available, I am badly in need of BIS over Wifi.
    I tried very thing given in the various forms from device wipe, wifi diagnostics, bb ip pinging, telneting, HRT WIFI 60 registration to hard reset etc. many times  & also did talked to Customer Care a lot  but couldn't get my problem solved.
    After all communications BSNL Customer Care finally told me that I can access BIS Services Over Wifi only if I take BIS Unlimited Plan (which is 3 times costlier than my current one & quite unnecessary for my needs) & with my current Plan I can't access BIS over wifi.
    This makes no sense,  basically I don't believe this, never read or heard anywhere. BB document mentioned below regarding accessing blackberry data services through wifi doesn't mention any caveat like this!!!!!

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    The carriers indeed each do control the services that they provide under different data plans. Further, at the bottom of page 6 of the document you cited, it states:
    Check with your wireless service provider for supported services and features. Not all Blackberry data plans support Wi-Fi access to BlackBerry data services.
    Hence, it sounds like your carrier does not provide, under the plan you have, access to the BIS infrastructure via WiFi.
    Best!
