Help with LTE and Internet Sharing for BUIlD Lumia...

Nokia,
I received the Lumia 920 when I was at BUILD 2 weeks ago. I followed the instructions and the phone mostly works on AT&T. I had a 900 so I assumed my LTE and Internet Sharing plan would easily transfer. Unfortunately that does not seem to be the case. I called AT&T gave them my IMEI number but it's not in their system and is not recognized as a Lumia 920. Because this is not an "AT&T phone" they wouldn't do much more to help. My data connection only ever shows 4G, never LTE as my 900 does and I cannot enable Internet Sharing even though it's on my data plan. I believe this is all controlled by the IMEI number.
Is there anything Nokia can do to help us? I can't imagine I'm the only one having this problem! I'm going to try again to see if I can get the issue escalated and maybe they can force the IMEI number to be recognized as a 920.
Thanks!

Sorry I never came back to update. The fix, as has been noted already, is to make sure AT&T has your IMEI as another 920 or your old 900 so that you get LTE (which appears as "4G"). Then, in the Nokia Access Point config setting (under System Config), make sure LTE2 is selected, then install an additional keyboard (I tried both Spanish and Chinese). This will force an OTA update that seems to enable Internet Sharing. I had to redo it a second time when I updated my Nokia Access Point app last week, but I just re-installed a NEW keyboard and got Internet Sharing back. It hasn't gone away since, contrary to what others have experienced. For more info (and where I found the fix) see this XDA thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1971997

  • Help with Firewall and Internet Sharing

    I’m trying to use my Mac Mini with an Airport Extreme card, which is connected to the internet using Siemens Speedstream 4100 DSL modem, for Internet Sharing with a Windows (work) laptop.
    So, in the Sharing preferences panel:
    Share connection from: Built in Ethernet
    To computers using: Airport
    I get the warning message:
    Other settings may interfere with Internet Sharing.
    The ‘More Info’ button gives the popup message:
    Your firewall settings will prevent computers sharing your internet connection from browsing the web. Enable Personal Web Sharing in the Services pane to allow computers sharing your connection to browse the web.
    I do that, turn the Airport card on, and the laptop can see the network, but can’t connect.
    If I turn the Firewall off, then I can connect fine, but then I don’t have a Firewall. Isn’t that risky if I’m using DSL? How can I do the internet sharing and still protect my computer?
    I realize I could buy a router with a built-in firewall, but isn’t there a way to set up the system using what I have?

    We just need to figure out what port is needed. I'd goto Sharing>Firewall>New>Port Name... Other, and try Port 53 both UDP and TCP.
    Oh, and when you say the PC can't connect, could that just mean it can't browse?
    On the PC, put the IP of the Mac in DNS servers, or...
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.22
    Well, I'm unable to set the DNS server addresses, as this is a work computer and I don't have the administrative privileges.
    How bad is it to just turn the Firewall on the Mac off when I want to use the connection?

  • Need Help with Laptops and Internet Access

    I have been having difficulties during the past week with my internet access.  I had been using FIOS for a couple months with few problems.  Initially, I thought the problem was related to thunderstorms that passed thru our area a week ago, and wondered if the router had been damaged during the storms.  But now I suspect it may be a more pedestrian issue with the computers' settings.
    I have the Actiontec M1424WR router.  With the power on, the power, internet, coax, and wireless lights are glowing and green.  I have tried rebooting the router, and have used the various "fix my connection" and optimizer tools available from online support here. 
    We have 4 PCs in the home, all with wireless adapters.  Two are desktop PCs, the other two are an HP (XP) and a Dell (Vista) laptop.  I am generally able to get internet access on the desktop PCs, since these have linksys wireless adapters with the linksys utilitiy installed, and I have a profile created in the linksys utility that usually works fine with the desktop units.
    But there is no such utility for the laptop units with their built-in adapters, and I must use Windows services to connect to the network and the internet.  I can sometimes find available networks with the Windows services, and connect to the network manually.   But many times, the SSID for our network will not be listed as avaialble, and at other times, the Windows service says that I have a network connection, but it will not connect to the Internet.  And even when connections are made, they will intermittently be dropped.
    Is there anything I can do to make the network and internet access for these laptops once again reliable? 
    Thanks,
    Rich
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Here is the possible scenario:
    Your router was configured correctly, and all was working well. 
    Thunderstorms knocked out power, and your router reverted to it's original setting ("automatic channel selection").
    Now you have intermittent connectivity due to the change in configuration. 
    When you go into your router to change the channel, check to see if there is an option to "keep current channel settings after power cycle".  If so, check that box.

  • Need help with setting up Internet sharing to PS3

    Hey, so I am trying to use my Macbook as a wired router to my PS3 (My Macbook is on my wireless Linksys router and I have the cable needed to create a wired connection from my Macbook to my PS3. I had this setup working once before after getting a specific set of numbers from a google search but can't seem to find that page anymore. I've only been able to find threads on creating a wireless connection. So here is my problem. From system prefs, I am entering into my PS3 all the numbers my Macbook is giving me from system prefs (my IP address, default router, subnet mask, and DNS servers). But ever time I run an internet connection test I get DNS Error 80710102. If someone could help me it would be greatly appreciated.

    Really?? I know this problem was solved before on the Apple message boards but I've been searching for it for quite some time and have yet to find that thread. Can someone help me with this??

  • Need help with API and sample code for checking a user's rights on a folder

    Hi All,
    I am working on an UCM integration where user supplies a folderpath (ucm folders), and a file is later uploaded to this location.
    Since a user can provide a folderpath where he has only Read Access or no access at all, we are trying to work out a way to pre-check his permissions on the folder.
    Since we have Entity Security enabled, we have 5 security fields to rely on Account, Security Group, User Access List, Group Access List, Role Access List.
    Writing custom code for this security check is second on our agenda.
    Firstly, we wish to know the API and sample code that typically performs this Security Check in UCM.
    We could find intradoc.shared.SecurityUtils which has methods to check security on SGroup and Account, but we couldn't find anything for:
    1) Overall security check
    2) ACL security check on top of sgroup and account security check

    Any ideas anyone?!
    I am looking forward to some pointers here. :(

  • Just bought a 3TB Time Capsule for a small office. Will have 4 users with MacBooks. What would ne the best setup for time machine individual backups and internet sharing in a secure way?

    Just bought a 3TB Time Capsule for a small office. Will have 4 users with MacBooks. What would ne the best setup for time machine individual backups and internet sharing in a secure way?

    Set up each Mac for Time Machine backups in the normal way.  Time Machine will keep each backup separate on the Time Capsule, so users will only be able to see the backups of their own Mac.
    Yes....there are convoluted workarounds that might allow one user to see the backups of another.....IF...they know the administrator password of the "other" Mac.
    As far as Internet sharing, all users will have access to the Internet if they have a wired or wireless connection. If a Mac connects using wireless, it is possible to limit the time that they are allowed to connect to the network.
    For example, you might limit the ability to connect to the wireless from say each Weekday from 8 AM to 6 PM.
    With a wired Ethernet connection, you cannot limit access times to the Internet.

  • OSX 10.6.8 and Internet Sharing to Ethernet

    I am trying to set up Internet Sharing so that I can connect my old MacBook Pro running 10.6.8 via ethernet to another device - I'm trying with xbox360 and Sony Blu Ray (BPD-S185) (for diversity of devices - I used to have it working on my xbox, but really want it working with the blu ray player but the network status feedback is better for problem solving on the xbox!).
    I have my MBP connected to my home network over Airport which has the following details:
    - IP: 192.168.1.5
    - Router IP: 192.168.1.1
    I have then enabled Internet Sharing through System Preferences to share my Airport connection to my Ethernet connection.
    I have the following Ethernet settings:
    - Configure IPv4: Using DHCP with manual address
    - (Ethernet) IP address: 192.168.2.1
    - Subnet Mask: (blank - not user accessable, changes to 255.255.255.0 when xbox turned on)
    - Router: (blank - not user accessable)
    - DNS Server: 192.168.1.1
    - Search Domains: (left blank)
    On the xbox I've set the network settings to:
    - IP: 192.168.2.2
    - Subnet: 255.255.255.0
    - Gateway: 192.168.2.1
    - Primary DNS: 192.168.1.1
    - Secondary DNS: 192.168.2.1
    When I then select 'Test my Xbox Live Connection'  it takes a while, the Network status shows 'Connected', however The Internet Failed.  I am informed that the 'Test Failed' and 'more information' tells me I have an 'Internet Error' with the following Status codes:
    W: 0000-000B
    X: 0000-000D
    Y: 0000-0000
    Z: 0000-0000
    ID0004-000
    L: 0015-10F1
    Q: 8007-0435
    T: Wired
    A: 192.168.2.2/255.255.255.0
    G: 192.168.2.1
    D: 192.168.1.1/192.168.2.1
    So, it looks as though the problem lies with the MBP and internet sharing on OSX.  I have extra suspicions that this is the problem, as connecting my Blu Ray player to my MBP via ethernet I also get a successful connection to the network, but no internet access.
    Pleeeeease can someone help?!?!  This is driving me nuts - a couple of years ago I had internet sharing working to let my xbox connect to the internet, so what's happened in the last few years to mean this won't work?

    If you want to back it up there, use the Disk Utility to create a disk image of it.
    If you want to import its contents to iMovie, iTunes, or elsewhere, use MPEG Streamclip and Apple's MPEG-2 playback component to convert the VOB files on it to a different format.

  • Nokia usb internet stick C-12 configuration problems and internet sharing

    While set up is said to be simple, once done and you are connected the problems start when you are disconnected and try to reconnect, sometimes you can, but in the majority can't, which requires you to restart the computer, however the computer tends to freeze so you have to shut it down by holding down the little silver button. At the same time the Nokia program, which self installs itself in Network connections, has established up to 3 Links in "Location" and deleting two of them does not help, they soon re-establish themselves.
    Any advice on how to configure this unit would be very much appreciated as its my own link to the outside.
    In addition, when using previous USB internet keys I have been able to use internet sharing for my iPod Touch, but am at a loss with the C-12.

    I had already done this and a blog by brightpointuk, on page four, setting out in pictorial format the installation helped, but did not suggested what the conflict may be after your link is dropped and you try to reconnect several times, failing this you then try to restart the Mac, but it freezes, which results in you having to press the top right silver shut down button, in the process I have seen a notice to say the C-12 won't shut down and needs to be forced quit, but as the Mac is frozen you can't do this. Once restarted its possible to reconnect until the next event and then the process may have to start over again. Thanks for the suggestion.

  • Error message about firewall and internet sharing

    hello all i have a question regarding the use of firewall and internet sharing.
    I have a PMG5 connected to internet through Airport. I've linked an Xbox 360 via the built-in ethernet port in order to access Xbox Live. I had to open specific UDP ports on the OS X firewall but it now works fine. However, in the Sharing Preference Pane, Internet Tab, i still get an error message saying that my Internet Sharing is disturbed by the settings of the firewall and sharing services, it says that i did not activate "personal web sharing" in the first two tabs...but i DID ! And there's no way to get rid of this error message.
    I know I know some may consider it's not a real problem because it's just an error message while the connection actually works fine but well, I tend to hate error messages when they're not supposed to show up. So if anyone know the answer, thanks in advance...
    Good day to everyone
    Vince, Paris...

    sorry about the delay in replying, was kinda busy
    well trashing the pref files was useless and i tried with another user, same thing. As for the second opinion, the problem was not about which port was used cause as i said the connection sharing works fine and anyway it was the correct port that was checked, it's just that i get an error message while there is no apparent error and everything works fine, i'm told that personal web sharing is not enabled but it is...
    Anyway as i said, it's probably not a real matter, as long as it works...which brings me to another thing. I've created a special protocol in the firewall to enable a proper dialog with the xbox. it's basically the same thing you do for ichat AV when you have video connection problems, you track down the concerned UDP port using terminal, you allow traffic and all... The protocol for the xbox worked great for some days, but now it seems it's not enough, the game set keeps trying on another port and i constantly have to update the protocol or deactivate the firewall...and enabling back all UDP traffic is not enough to solve it.
    In a way i think everything is linked, the initial error message when everything was fine and the current trouble. Any idea?
    thanks

  • I use a Win7 PC with iCloud and Outlook 2010 for syncing my calendar and contacts. I can enter data in my Outlook Calendar and it will appear in iCloud, but data entered in iCloud does not sync back to Outlook.  ICloud syncs to my iphone fine both ways.

    I use Win 7 PC with iCloud and Outlook 2010 for syncing my Contacts and Calendar.  They have stopped syncing...mostly.
    Now, appointments I enter on my local Outlook (iCloud) Calendar goes up to iCloud fine.  But, data I enter on iCloud directly does not come down to my local Outlook iCloud Calendar.  If I reboot the computer, the iCloud data shows up.
    Also, Contacts I try to enter on my Outlook (iCloud) Contacts goes up to iCloud fine, but does not show up in my local iCloud Contacts.
    All syncing works with my iPhone.
    I have signed out of iCloud on PC.  I have stopped syncing and re-started.  No change.
    I have an .aplzod folder for iCloud.  I have a separate Earthlink.net.pst email account in Outlook and a me.com.pst Outlook email account (which I don't actually use) listed under Data Files.
    Any help would be appreciated.  Curious that Outlook will upload to iCloud but not receive downloads unless I reboot.  However, rebooting does not download the missing Contacts.

    Hi Jim!
    You've started off with some good troubleshooting steps, so let's see if we can take this a little further and figure out what the issue is with your iCloud contacts and calendars. I have two articles here that will help you troubleshoot this issue a little further, but the troubleshooting steps for both articles are exactly the same, so I will lay those out for you here:
    Note: When using iCloud Control Panel 2.0 and later, iCloud Calendar event descriptions in Outlook 2010 do not support text formatting (bold, italics, or underline), HTML, images, or attachments. The contextual (right-click) menu has also been disabled.
    If you are having trouble with a PC (with Outlook 2007 or 2010) and iCloud Calendar, try each of these steps, testing after each to see if the issue is resolved:
    Verify that you are using a Windows configuration that is supported by iCloud. For more information, see iCloud system requirements.
    When enabling Calendars in the iCloud Control Panel, part of the setup process is to copy your Calendars data from the default Outlook ".pst" file to iCloud, and then remove the Calendars from the ".pst" file by placing them in the Deleted Items folder in Outlook. The Calendars data is then stored in the iCloud data set within Outlook so that changes can be pushed to and from Outlook by iCloud. Be sure you are looking for your data within the iCloud dataset within Outlook after enabling Calendars in the iCloud Control Panel. The deleted files can be seen by viewing Deleted Items within your Outlook Folder List. This is not iCloud removing your data; iCloud simply copies your data into the iCloud data set and then removes the local Calendars data by placing it in the Deleted Items folder.
    Make sure your computer is online. Attempt to view www.apple.com and iCloud.com. If you can't connect to the Internet, your iCloud calendars and events will not update in Outlook. Click here for more information about troubleshooting your Internet connection.
    Open a secure website to test if you are online as is necessary for iCloud Calendar. This also tests if the ports 80 and 443 are accessible. Outlook requires port 443 access to iCloud in order to push and pull updates to and from the iCloud Calendar servers.
    Verify that your iCloud member name is entered into the iCloud Control Panel pane. See iCloud Setup for more information about setting up iCloud on Windows.
    Completely close and reopen the iCloud Control Panel.
    If you recently made changes in Outlook and they are not moving to your other devices or vice-versa, click the Refresh button in Outlook.
    Turn iCloud Calendar off and back on:
    Close Outlook.
    Open the Windows Control Panel:
    In Windows 8, move the pointer to the upper-right corner of the screen to show the Charms bar, click the Search charm, and then click the iCloud Control Panel on the left.
    In Windows 7 and Vista, choose Start menu > All Programs > iCloud > iCloud.
    Remove the checkmark in the checkbox next to Mail, Contacts, Calendars & Tasks, and click Apply. Wait a few seconds, then replace the checkmark, and click Apply.
    Open Outlook and test to see if the issue has been resolved.
    Ensure the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active within Outlook.
    Outlook 2010:
    Open Outlook 2010.
    Click the File menu.
    Click Options in the left panel of the Outlook window.
    Click Add-Ins in the left panel of the Outlook Options window.
    Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins" and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
    For Outlook 2007, follow these steps to verify the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active
    Open Outlook 2007.
    From the Tools menu, choose Trust Center.
    Select Add-ins from the left column.
    Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins" and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
    For additional information about managing Add-ins with Microsoft Outlook, see this Microsoft support document.
    Restart your computer. This may sound simple, but it does reinitialize your network and application settings and can frequently resolve issues.

    Oh i have an iphone 4 by the way - if this helps.
    I have updated the itunes to 11 point something (latest as of 19th Sept '13) and still not joy.
    My phone sees the network, then when i try to connect to it in the "Sharing" spot in music, it gives me the rotating icon and then i get "Unable to Home Share at this time".
    I had this problem with the ios 6, which was log out of you apple account, and then turn off the phone -this was supposed to clear all the history and old connection details etc.
    Then restart the phone and re-log into itunes account.
    As i say - that worked last time, but this time, i have no idea what is going on.
    I am looking at reverting back to the ios 6, and waiting for ios 7.1 which to be honest - wont be long away with the amount of issues people are having.
