Hotspot login cannot open the page because it could not establish a secure connection to the server.

I am trying to connect to a public wifi network.  My iPad connects marvoulesly.  My iPhone not so much.  I have an iPhone 4 and everytime I go to connect, it goes to a pop up page where I'm supposed to click a link to adhere to their TOS.  When I get the pop up page I get "Hotspot login cannot open the page because it could not establish a secure connection to the server"
I've reset the network settings and nothing changed.  Same error message.  Any tips or tricks to fix this?  I'm laid up on bed rest in the hospital and would really rather that I not use all my data minutes...
Thanks!

Updated to iOS6 on an iPhone 4 this morning, and now when I attempt to connect to my work wireless, it connects for a moment then attempts to popup some login page (I sometimes get the hotspot login error you've mentioned) and because the page doesn't exist I can't get connected to the wireless netowrk.
What the heck have apple broken in this update?
Why when joining a normal wireless network is my phone even going near a Login page? What is this and how do I disable it?
Oh, and I'm posting here because your suggestions of disabling the Wi-Fi and Cellular data netowkrs doesn't solve the problem.
[Edit: seems while typing this leaving the cellular data disabled, it's now letting my join wireless - seems to be some timeout on it fixing the issue - I'd still like to know what this login page is it's attempting to locate is for.]

  • Cannot open page Safari cannot open the page because it could not establish a secure connection to the server

    Hello Apple Experts!!
    I Am Surendra and very new to this forum.. I just came across a problem with my Iphone while connecting to my company WIFI.. we are using Web authentication.. meaning..
    The user will try to connect to the wireless network, the client will get the IP address and they are forced to open up the browser to provide the USERNAME and the PASSWORD on the webpage, once they pass the auth they will be able to access to the internet.
    The WEB PAGE that asks for the USERNAME and the PASSWORD is HTTPS and for some reason that page is not at all opening and i am getting the below error.. If i disable HTTPS on the cisco Device the IPHONE works great..
    Cannot open page Safari cannot open the page because it could not establish a secure connection to the server
    This is happening only on the OS 5 and on the OS 4 everything works just great!!
    I have a feeling that this has to do something to do with HTTPS / SSL connection with the IPHONE SAFARI or OS 5
    Am connecting to Cisco Wireless LAN COntroller and the access point acting as the WIFI devices..
    Any help on the same will be much appreciated!!

    This appeared to be a more than sufficient cipher list, yet my iPad won't load any page.  I highly doubt it's a problem with SSL2 not being enabled because SSL2 has been deprecated for awhile now.
    Any ideas?

  • How to update to ios6 when "could not establish a secure connection to the device" message appears with Jailbroken iPhone 4

    Hi all,
    I've been trying to update my Jailbroken iPhone 4 to ios6 but, unfortunately, I keep getting the "could not establish a secure connection to the device" when connecting it to iTunes. I've tried updating "over the air" but this flags up an error too. Finally, I can't restore to a previous backup because, the backups I previously had, were stored on my old (broken) computer.
    CAn anyone help? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Rakesh.

    You jailbroke your phone.
    Only google may help now.
    You'll find no help here.
    If Haiku you don't like,
    Then to Google you should hike,
    You jailbroke your phone,
    Now on these forums you are alone,
    'Tis a day of no cheer,
    For we cannot help here.
    In non-poem; You jailbroke your phone, which is not support by Apple, meaning updates will not work on it as they would if you were running official software.
    As per the ToC for the device, and for these Discussion Boards (both you agreed too), you will not get support either from the discussion board, or from Apple directly.
    Your best bet is to Google for help and learn a valuable lesson; Jailbreaking can definitely brick your phone.

  • Haveing problems with Safari. It gives me an error message. Safari can't open the web page, because it can't establish a secure connection to the server. It only seams to have a problem on https sites. Any help would be apreciated.

    Safari keeps giving  and error message. " Safari can't open the web page( insert web page here) , because it can't establish a secure connetion to the server.
    It only seams to have a problem with https sites.
    Any help would be appreciated

    The "s" in "https" indicates the site is a secure server--usually a site that will require a password.  Connections to secure servers can be blocked by parental controls.  Are you using any parental controls, either through OSX's settings (in System Preferences) or third party parental control software (such as Netnanny)?  If so, check the settings to make sure they will allow the connection.

  • Safari will not open on my iPad Air...."Safari cannot open the page because it could not connect to the server." There were recent updates on my iPad Air. How can I fix this problem?

    Hello Beckieor,
    After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning network issues:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    Follow these steps to troubleshoot the above issues:
    Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your Wi-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
    Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
    Restart your iOS device.
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
    Tap and Forget this Network.
    Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
    Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
    Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
    Update your device to the latest version of software.
    Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.

    Hi
    I constantly get same message.  When I open up my windows laptop all works fine so I guess it's a bug that apple refuse to admit to.

  • Safari cannot open the page because it could not load any data

    I had a odd thing happen with Safari today I get a "Safari cannot open the page because it could not load any data" msg when going to a saved site with a book mark but I can get the page to load by going to google.  It dosn't happen for the same site every time  Mosty Fanfiction.net.  Happens on Nework and on cellular.   Sites work on my Ipad but not my Iphone 6  

    Thanks a lot for the tip! I wrote to the NYTimes webmaster but did not get a reply. However, the next day my problem was solved and I could access all content as I did previously. Either a coincidence or...? I'll take it either way and thanks again!

  • "safari cannot open the page because it could not connect to the server"

    As stated above. I have had this problem for the last 2-3 days. I have always been able to connect to the internet over wi-fi using my iphone but this problem had persisted these few days. This is a problem because my iPhone shows that I do have connection to the internet. ( I assume this from looking at the internet signal stregth bar at the top of the screen.) My laptop and computer have no problem but the message "safari cannot open the page because it could not connect to the server," keeps on appearing on my phone whenever I try to access the internet.
         If it is of any relevance I use an iPhone 4s, reasonably new, practically 2 months. I have never had problems before this. Thank you for your help in advance.

    The connection strength icon you are referring to has nothing to do with the Internet. It simply indicates the strength of your connection to your local WiFi network. However, even when this icon appears you may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
    Your router may not have given your iPhone a valid local network IP address. To check on this go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
    Sometimes the fix for this can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power to it for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPhone (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
    If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

    It sounds as though a script on the site, or an advertisement, is not working quite right...
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    (You also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now")
    (2) Remove the site's cookies using either of these. Save any pending work first.
    While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

    This worked for me:
    "Although it is not a 'fix' for the HP issue, I did find a workaround that helped me. In the Preferences Panel in MacOS X you can pull up the Printer/Scanner preferences and scan directly from OS X. I'd not known of this prior to posting here and it worked like a charm."
    "Of course, HP should still update their software, but it's good to know that Apple has it covered for them."
