3g Connected but "cant; connect to internet try later often .WHY?

I AM connected to a 3g 2 Gb I compose a mail and when I want to sent it I get a message across the page saying." cannot conect to hotmail please check that you are connected which I did 5 times still Zilch! nut! nine! nothing!

I had a similar incident last fall. For some unknown reason, after having all our systems connect to Airport/Internet perfectly for years, it suddenly stopped connecting, even though I had a strong Airport signal.
After some troubleshooting, I found that if I applied security to my network it refused to connect, and would ONLY connect if the security was left off. We live in a residential area where all our neighbours/friends have wireless, so I had no alternative but to leave the security off, something I have never done. No matter what I tried it would not connect once security was applied, so I left it off. (Interestingly, if security was applied I had those yellow dots in Network Prefs, too.)
Recently, I thought I'd try it again and apply security and it worked first time, and normally, like it always did, so security is back on. I have no idea to this day why for a number of weeks it refused to connect if there was security, but would connect no problem without security. All is back to normal now, thankfully.
I don't know if this will help you at all, but thought I'd mention it so you can try your network without security and then applying it - see if there's any difference.
Rachel.

  • Wifi showing connected but cant get on internet

    Dear friends, I have a Blackberry Torch 9800
    Version details:
    6.0 bundle 2949 (v6.0.0.668, Platform 6.6.0.236)
    WLAN version 4.3.0.97
    My problem is that BB connects to the wifi router but whenever i try to use facebook or twitter or browser, the message appears as there is no data plan to support this service. BB always tries to connect to internet via my mobile network, despite being connected to wifi.
    service status shows the following info for Wifi network:
    Active Profile : [ssid_name]
    SSID : [ssid_name]
    Type: 802.11b/g/n
    I have absolutely no idea why this is happening?

    Hi!I have the same pblm with my Torch 9800 bundle 2949. I have wifi only few minutes just after a reboot. Could anyone help please?

  • Full bars, 3g connected, but cant access internet

    please help me, i'm using TELKOMSEL (indonesian) i have data plans, and it's 4gb, the thing is, as i said Full bars, 3g connected, but cant access internet, i tried to access google using safari, chrome, but still the same message, network not available, those things.... PLEASE HELP ME..

    It sounds like a poor data connection. I get the same thing when I try to use AT&T here in my house. It shows 4G and 3 bars but I get little to no data at all. If that is what is happening to you, you can try another carrier if there is one.
    Here, I can get LTE at my house and about 10-15Mbps on T-Mobile. Switching carriers can make the difference.

  • HT1600 my apple television keeps stopping during the movie, i have a good internet connection but cant understand why?

    My apple tv  keeps stopping during the movie, I have a good internet connection but cant understand why?

    The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this atwww.speedtest.net.
    1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.

  • Please can someone help me? Have iphone 4 and just returned home from abroad where the phone worked fine. Now it wont receive wifi. It picks up signal and shows on phone but cant connect to internet. Computers and ipod all working ok

    Hi, please can someone help me?
    Have just returned home from abroad where my iphone 4 worked perfectly.
    Now at home it wont receive wifi. It picks up the signal which shows in phones display but cant connect to the internet. Computers and ipod all working fine so I assume it must be a problem with the phone.
    Have checked that wifi is turned on and tried resetting phone to no avail

    Hello melissa82686,
    From your description, it sounds like you may have been using the SMS feature of Continuity in iOS 8. If this is the case and it has somehow become misconfigured after a recent change, you may find the information and steps outlined in the following articles helpful:
    SMS
    With Continuity, all the SMS and MMS text messages you send and receive on your iPhone also appear on your Mac, iPad, and iPod touch. Even if the person you’re communicating with doesn’t have an iPhone. And regardless of what phone they have, you can reply from whichever device is closest to you, including your iPad or Mac. You can also initiate a  conversation by clicking a phone number in Safari, Contacts, or Calendar.
    To use Continuity for SMS and MMS with your iPhone and your Mac, iPad or iPod touch
    Your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch need to use iOS 8.1, and your Mac needs to use OS X Yosemite.
    Sign in to iMessage on your iPhone, your other iOS devices, and your Mac using the same Apple ID.
    On your iPhone:
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You Can Be Reached By, and add a check to both your phone number and email address.
    Go to Messages > Text Message Forwarding, and enable the device(s) you would like to forward messages to.

  • I have a PC with a internet connection through a modem and ever since i have had it i have had no connection to the itunes store. And even if I try to update anything it says that i need to check my connection, but my connection is fine. What should I do?

    This almost always indicates your firewall or anti-virus utilities are preventing iTunes from contacting the iTunes Store. Here is an exerpt from "Can't connect to the iTunes Store": http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368
    Troubleshooting on Windows
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store for more than a day —and other customers on our discussion boards aren't experiencing similar issues— a software or internet service provider (ISP) configuration issue may be blocking your access to the iTunes Store. Click here to find out which ports and servers need to be allowed for iTunes Store access.
    Update iTunes to the latest version.
    If you have not done so already, try the steps in iTunes for Windows: iTunes Store connection troubleshootingto troubleshoot iTunes Store connectivity in Windows.
    Firewall issues:
    Windows XP: If you've upgraded to Windows XP Service Pack 2: By default, Windows Firewall is enabled. As with all firewalls not manufactured by Apple, you will need to configure Windows Firewall to allow iTunes to access the iTunes Store. To do so, see How to enable iTunes in the Windows XP Firewall.
    Windows Vista and 7: As with all firewalls not manufactured by Apple, you will need to configure Windows Firewall to allow iTunes to access the iTunes Store. To do so see, the "Blocked by software firewall" section in this article.
    Proxies can cause issues and should be avoided whenever possible. To disable the proxy built-in to Windows see, iTunes for Windows Can't access the Internet if proxy settings are incorrect.
    If you are receiving a specific error message you may want to see, the "Specific Conditions and Alert Messages" section in this article as needed.
    If the issue still persists, contact your internet service provider and confirm that the ports and servers in this article are enabled over your network.
    The "hosts" file may be blocking the iTunes Store
    Microsoft's article How do I reset the hosts file back to the default? has instructions and a "FixIt" to have Windows try to reset the hosts defaults for you.
    Note: Some workplaces may put internal resources in the hosts file but may also use it to block iTunes Store.
    To create a copy of your hosts file and replace it with an empty hosts file, follow the instructions for your operating system below.

    You haven't provided much information, such as what type of router you have?  If you entered the encryption key as the password as opposed to the router name you have selected?  If you have WEP or WPA?  What you've tried that didn't work, other than saying it doesn't work?  So, below is a link to some assistance.  Follow this and see if it helps you.........

  • Windows sees airport but cant connect, windows sees airport but cant connect

    Set up internet sharing on my iMac, my android phone connects, my daughters iPod connects, no problem, her PC however sees my iMac wifi but cant connect to it, doesnt ask for password or anything?

    With the cable modem cabled to the Base Station's ethernet WAN port (the one labelled with the "circle of dots" icon) pull power to both the Base Station and the modem for at least five minutes. Then plug the modem into power and wait a minute. Then plug the Base Station into power and wait a minute. Then try internet access again.

  • Able to join wifi network, but cant connect to web or itunes

    Picked up 16 GB iPod Touch today at Best Buy. Able to sync music ok. No problems with sound quality using good earphones.
    Touch is good but takes a fair amount of pressure. Guess I will get adapted
    Able to join my home wifi network, but cant connect to an website or ITunes wifi- says it can't find the server. I entered my WEP key and pressed join. I have a wifi icon with 3 bars. Did I miss a step?
    Am converting a few tv shoes so I can test video

    Did you try putting it to sleep/turning it back on. It originally did that for me, I put in my key for my network (which is hard, as its many many digits and letters) and it said it couldn't find the server. I turned it off, and back on, started up the iTunes store, and it connected automatically and worked.

  • HT1657 i rented a move from iTunes...i was on a plane and tried to watch it, but got a message that there was a problem in accessing the iTunes store.  i had a wifi connection, but had to buy internet access to watch the movie.  is this normal?

    i rented a movie from itunes.  i was on a plane when i tried to access it...but got an error message saying "cannot access itunes store".  i had a wifi connection but had to purchase internet to watch the movie on the plane.  never had this problem with my ipad and never have it when i download tv shows.  what's the deal with movies?

    It's not normal, presuming that the movie downloaded completely, but it has come up from time to time. I've not been able to figure out from the various posts why rentals work for most but in some cases insist on a connection to the iTunes store. Go here:
    http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    to report the issue to the iTunes Store. Perhaps they can provide an explanation, though you may just get canned and rather inapplicable replies about how to rent or download.
    Regards.

  • Wifi connected but cant open web sites

    I use my Ipad for email and surfing whilst traveling at air ports and hotesl.
    Now some wifi sites ok but others sites I get connected but cant open web pages
    WHY any ideas to fix problem

    If you gave some examples of which locations caused problems and details on what happened it would help to give advice. There are many different types of "free" WiFi at these sorts of places. The mechanisms used to allow you to access the wifi are varied, i.e., agreement web pages, credentials, userid/password, etc.
    In some cases, the Safari Autofill feature has interfered with the sign on mechanism used. If this is the case this feature can be turned Off by going to Settings > Safari > Autofill and turning it Off.

  • I can not get my ipod 4 gen to log into Free Wifi hotspots. It shows that it is connected but I have to internet activity. I was at several hotspot locations last night and could not get on any, but other people were. HELP.

    I can not get my Ipod 4 Gen to log into free WIFI hot spots. It shows that I am connected but I have no internet activity. I was in several hot spots last night and could not log in, other people were, but I could not. HELP!

    - Did the other users who successfully connected have iDevices?
    - Frequently you have to open Safari/a browser and agree to the terms and conditions of the wifi spot before yo can get to the internet.  Some wifi spots use Flash or Java to log on which the iPod (and other iDevices) do not support)
    - Have you tried resetting network settings: Settings:General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - Does you Ipod successfully connect at home?.

  • Mobile network state "connecting" but never connects...help please?

    Hi,
    When I try to turn on 3G data on my Fascinate, it never connects. Under settings/about phone/mobile network state it just says "connecting" but never connects, and the "3G" icon never appears in the top right corner of the phone. I've tried toggling the airplane mode, turning off, then turning back on and toggling airplane mode off, but it didn't work.
    I was wondering why I haven't received the 2.3 OTA update yet, and I guess it's because my data is not working.
    Any suggestions?
    thanks for any help you can give!

      Not to make it sound simplistic, but have you pulled the battery out? Shut off phone, pull the battery for 30 seconds, put the battery back in, and then turn it on.
