Access Point utility fails to enable Internet Shar...

I have an subsidy unlocked Lumia 920 and using it with a T-mobile SIM (USA).  Access point enables MMS and Data on the device, but I can't seem to get Internet Sharing to work.  I've already verified with T-Mobile that internet sharing is enabled on my plan, but the device keeps telling me that Internet Sharing is disabled.  This failure is also true for a subsidy unlocked Lumia 720 that I have.
I've verified that Access Point configures internet sharing correctly in the Lumia 925, but it seems that the access point utility fails to configure something on the Lumia 920 and 720.
I'm using the latest version of Access Point, released on 7/18/2013 (v 3.7.2.15)

Have a look at Post # 131 of this resource as using latest "access point" fixes MMS so it will work, but it breaks Internet Sharing. If you want to to setup Internet Sharing you would need to reset device (http://www.nokia.com/gb-en/support/faq/?action=sin​gleTopic&topic=FA140408) and setup T-Mobile APN manually as here: http://support.t-mobile.com/thread/32597?start=120​&tstart=0
Lumia 925 is already using the Amber update, so hopefully issue should be fixed upon it's release within next few weeks.
Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

  • WRT160N Useable as a switch/access point but not as an internet gateway?

    Greetings,
    Can anyone tell me if it is possible to use a
    WRT160N wireless N router as just a switch and wireless LAN access point and NOT as an internet Gateway?  I have a LAN that is not connected to the internet that uses a Linksys switch and I need to get a wireless access point setup so that I can attach a computer wirelessly to this LAN.    Occassionally I connect the swich to another router that does have internet access, but in general the LAN is not connected to the internet router.
    Thanks! 

    You can use WRT160N as a switch...Connect the LAN to the Ethernet port of the router and change the ip address of the linksys router in the range of the LAN ip.

  • Fail to enable internet gateway

    Hi, I am an IdeaPad S10 user. 
    Since yesterday I could use LAN to surf Internet and my wireless seemed to receive signals and connected. 
    But my internet gateway was ALWAYS disabled, even when I right clicked it and tried to enable it, it said "connected" in the popped-up window but still shown to be disabled.  And I can't open any webpage or use internet at all through wireless. 
    Want to ask what to do with it?  Thank you!

    if you have not already then restart the laptop and if that dosent work go to the system prefences network and disconect and reconect to the network you want and that should do it

  • PC54G Access Point half working

    My ADSL Internet connection comes through the modem to a switch then to a desktop pc via lan which is also fitted with a PC54G wireless card. I have 2 laptops with 801.11g wireless cards, I can get a normal network, email and I can ping the modem from them and that is all. I cant ping the outside world or receive the Net, MSN messenger, ICQ etc. I have tried a few configurations without success.
    What should I use, Access Point or Gateway?? Should I have bridged connections, if so which ones?? Anything else that might help   

    I think you must use a ACCESS Point
    and you must enable DHCP client on your HOST PC
    Some Internet connection dosnt support manual sharing of internet

  • N97 OTA access point help

    hi all, got a probem here that seems to been doin my head in over the last few days. basically i bought a brand new locked to tmobile N97, im a virgin customer.. now, i'm wanting to do a firmware upgrade.. due to having an old **bleep** laptop that only has 248mb of ram i cant d the upgrade via nokia pc suite so my only other option is OTA.. right, so, i dial *#0000# then go to options, then check for updates... up pops a message saying a need to define an access point, ok.. not understanding it much i try and manually add some stuff myself, to no avail... then i do some forum posting and manage to get these settings: Server Name Nokia Server ID Nokia Server password firmupservpass Access point [select your preferred AP] Host address https://dms.update.nokia.com/dms/omadm Port 443 User name nokiams DM password nokiamspass Allow configuration Yes Auto accept all requests Yes but... that hasnt solved my problem, when entered and i try to connect to do the upgrade i get a connection error. my only option is this forum, its a nokia fone and a nokia forum i cant get my head round it as i can use the internet n my fone brilliantly, surely the internet and the OTA access point are the same thing?

    To add an access point select settings-connectivity-destinations-Access point , Automatically search for available access points ?, select yes and choose access point. Then go into Internet and set the priorities to WLAN number 1 T-Mobile number 2 etc
    Good Luck
    PS Nokia Software Updater should still work on computer, even with low memory or weak internet , just a bit slower.

  • Bypass an access point for packet sniffing

    Hello,
    I have recently set up a WiFi network with WPA/PSK connection and a tablet PC with Windows 7 with "connectify" to act as a repeater/access point. But I would like to use the client running Arch connected to the repeater to log the traffic after the access point/repeater/gateway with, how do I do that?
    Main Access point/gateway connected to the internet has an IP address of 192.168.10.254
    Software repeater (connectify) has 192.168.2.1
    Client has 192.168.2.102
    So far I can only "see" the traffic between the client and the repeater.

    I'm not entirely sure I understand this, but as far as I can tell you have a setup as follows:
    Gateway--Windows 7 Tablet--Arch Client
    I'm unsure what exactly you're trying to do with the Arch client. What exactly do you plan to log? How are the devices connected together and how many interfaces does each device have?
    I *think* I have a vague idea of what you're trying to do, but I can't help until I know what you're working with in more detail.

  • Need to disable AP mode multicast in 1231 series access point

    Hi
    I have one controller 2504 and some 1200 series access points.I am using 3 SSID .I want to use two ssid in HREAP mode but HREAP mode is not showinh in access point because multicast is enabled on AP mode.Please see the below picture
    I have disabled the multicast globally from CLI.
    config network multicast global disabled
    Please help me in disabling the multicast so that i can set the access point in HREAP mode.
    Thanks ....

    Hi George
    I have found a document in which it is mentioned which platform are supported..
    These are the restrictions to remember while you use H-REAP.
    Hybrid REAP is supported only on the 1130AG, 1140, 1240, 1250, 1260,           AP801, AP 802, 1040, and AP3550 APs and on the Cisco WiSM, Cisco 5500, 4400,           2100, 2500, Flex 7500 Series Controllers, the Catalyst 3750G Integrated           Wireless LAN Controller Switch, and the Controller Network Module for           Integrated Services Routers.
    But why it is giving an remark on controller tab that multicast is not supported with HREAP on this platform ?
    Is this the limitation of cisco 2504 controller or the limitation of 1231 access point ?
    Does that mean i can use my SSID in HREAP mode if i am using 1231 series access point ?
    Thanks...

  • Access point Nokia messaging.

    I have a N97 mini.
     How to delete access points in Nokia messaging? I have the latest version. I have Internet as access point. I have set Internet to ask before connecting as I want to use  wi/fi when possible. Despite that Messaging connects with 3G without asking. In messaging there are access points I would like to erase. Is that possible? Can I setup messaging to ask before connecting?

    create a new destination in connectivity settings, copy your wifi access point to it. and set messaging to use that.
    There's no dignity in begging for kudos. Do it for the karma.

  • N80 access points

    i checked that there were no access points defined. when i went to "net" it asked me to choose connection it came up with vodafone internet gateway. I dont know why its like that? i went to settings and there was no access points there at all.
    next thing i did was use nokia settings wizard to get my vodafone access points and it created "vodafone internet gateway(1)"
    in settings->access points, there is only one copy of it there.
    when i go to "net" it asks for which connection i should use and i see two copies there.
    why is like this?
    under settings there is only one copy but somehow the fone thinks there is 2 so it must have been setup or entered somewhere and i cant seem to find out where or what i should do about it
    remember, this is from a fresh reformat of my fone.
    anyone got any ideas of what i should do without having to format again? formatting again might work, but then again it might not.
    maybe its stored on my sim card automatically and thats where it is?
    i just dont know

    Have you sent up email retrieval to automatically download, check the email settings?
    Otherwise you might have setup some SIP settings. Do you have any profiles in Tools, Settings, Connection, SIP Settings? If so and you know you are not using them, then delete them.
    Another one to check, although less likely is under Tools, Settings, Connection, Packet Data and check that is set to "When needed" and "None"
    (PS always usful to post your SW version so we know where you are coming from....)

  • Linksys WRT54G v5.1 "bridge mode" or "access point"

    Hello all.
    I have tried to find out how to activate something called "bridge mode" or "access point" and failed.
    Can anyone help me? I need to use the wireless router between another router and my computer.
    I hope you can help me.
    Thank you...
    Message Edited by Flowergun on 08-16-2007 12:18 PM

    Yes. That's correct. You also have to change the LAN IP address of the router to avoid address conflicts.

  • Response times (PING) very high with CAP3602i access point

    I have installed an access point CAP3602i in mode HREAP a controller Model 5508  with version 7.4.100.0 but the response times of the connected users are very high.
    The less users are connected to the access point is faster surfing the internet and response times are low. But if there are many users connected, increase response times.
    I'll be grateful someone comments any experience with this problem.
    Thanks

    We are talking about 15 users per AP, but that everything is surfing the internet and not so heavy downloads before aps 1141 and had had no such problem response times were normal between 2,3,4 ms
    There is performing some function more cap3602i ap causes high response times.
    Supposedly CAP3602i I say are better than the 1141, which is why we made the change but we found with surprise that high times.
    The SSID was HREAP doubt it has anything to do with the 1141 does not give the issue of high times.

  • Packet Data Access Point Names vs real data server...

    I am trying to activate an application that requires GPRS.
    I currently can get EGPRS and assume that will do the same but faster. But I have a question that may not pertain to this but as I am new at this I will ask it here. From reading I see that the settings of packet data appear to have more to do with setting up phone as a modem to use. So I don't know truly if this has any bearing on my problem with the software registering to complete the setup of it.
    However my web access which is unlimited month to month internet access which allows me to go anywhere on web (not a walled garden) also uses this GPRS or EDGE version of GPRS. I am in the USA with T-Mobile. Phone is set to use GSM. The screen where it concerns connectivity says that I have Access Points which were configured by T-Mobile sms file they sent me twice. I actually have 5 names under Access Points.
    1)MMS = wap.voicestream.com
    2)T-Mo WEB = Internet.voicestream2.com with small i in settings
    3)T-Mo WEB(01) - this from 2nd sms copy same
    4)T-Mobile Internet = Internet.voicestream2.com with small i in settings too.
    5)t-zones this is their wall garden = wap.voicestream.com
    ok since I can browse the web anywhere and download the application I don't know why I cannot register it. But it states it needs an internet connection before activation through authentication, or basically registering it to use.
    So I am trying to do this after verifying that I have an internet connection with the too connection arrows symbols on phone screen showing internet connectivity with E over them currently by starting a browser first as the application doesn't seem to do this for me when trying to activate it.
    E
    --> where the lines are solid. Ok here is my issue here.
    The arrows are not coming up correctly in this forum anyway I get what shows I have EGPRS connectivity, I don't know if the application is sensitive to using GPRS only but will find out. I doubt it. The GPRS would show the arrows with an antennae above. I am talking about the indicators from what the pdf and book say.
    Below Access Points on the menu in settings for connection is Packet data.
    Packet data has to variables
    1) when needed , or when available
    2) Access point
    Access point is blank. Should I enter one of T-Mobiles names in the list above this under Access Points such as
    T-Mobile Internet or should I put the server name in specifically internet2.voicestream.com?
    I set the Data Call setting to Unlimited to make sure if its using this process it doesn't turn off after the 5 minute default on the next setting.
    Any ideas why this gprs app is not activating itself and making the gprs internet connection with the pin I was provided? I had to use the pin just to download it and install it.

    that will work. You only need to change if you need to have always on (highly unlikley) or if you are using modem dial up and need to specify access point for that.
    If you using Nokia One Touch access then you don't even need to define access point in this menu as that application will take care of it for you.
    All other network aware applications will use access point settings as defined in settings menu.

  • 2003 to 2008 R2 file cluster migration - shares fail to migrate due to missing client access point

    Hello,
    I need to migrate my 2003 cluster to 2008 R2, but am having difficulty doing so. I have a 2003 2 node disk and node majority cluster which has 3 groups (2 individual file shares) and a separate group for the quorum.
    I'm trying to migrate my 2003 groups to a 2 node 2008 r2 cluster.
    I've ran through the cluster migration wizard as
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff182337(v=ws.10).aspx), the disk resources within my group migrate, but the file shares don't.
    In summary:
    - I ran the 2008 r2 cluster run migration wizard and connected to my 2003 cluster
    - Once the wizard completes, I left the the newly migrated group on the 2008 r2 cluster offline
    - Took the appropriate file share and disk resource group offline on 2003
    - Ensured the iSCSI disks for my migrated data are showing correctly on the 2008 R2 node (I'm using the same drive letter which my 2003 node used for the moved disk)
    - I then brough the resources online. Resources fail to come online as client access point is missing, so I add a new access point (http://blogs.technet.com/b/askcore/archive/2010/08/24/using-multiple-client-access-points-cap-in-a-windows-server-2008-r2-failover-cluster.aspx)
    - Restart my 2008 r2 cluster node
    - File share is missing! The file share has not been imported
    I then tried the registry key export and import:
    - On my 2003 active cluster node I export HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Shares
    - I take the appropriate cluster resource and disk offline on my 2003 node
    - Attach the disk to my 2008 R2 cluster node
    - Added the new disk as a cluster resource (again keeping the same drive letter)
    - Merged the 2003 registry key with the share information (note examining regedit shows the newly imported key)
    - Restart the server, but the share doesn't show up in the cluster administrator or share management tool on my 2008 R2
    1. Is it even possible to transfer file shares using the cluster migration wizard from 2003 to 2008 r2? Maybe I'm missing a step with the client access point (or do I need to transfer all cluster resources over at once).
    2. Should the registry key export import work, when the shares have been created under the cluster administration console (as opposed to windows explorer)?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Currently there is no such a tool which could help transfer Sharing permissions to a new server or a new cluster.
    Here is an article about file share in a cluster:
    Working with File Shares in Windows Server 2008 (R2) Failover Clusters
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/askcore/archive/2010/08/19/working-with-file-shares-in-windows-server-2008-r2-failover-clusters.aspx
    From this article, share permission of a Windows Server 2008 R2 failover Cluster will be stored in HKLM\Cluster\Resources\<GUID>\Parameters.
    You can test to export that keys to new cluster to see if shares will occur however as it is GUID involved, it may not work on a new cluster.

  • IMac as a wireless access point to internet

    Hi anyone knows iMac as a access point to internet to use other gadgets

    Check out System Preferences > Sharing > Internet Sharing
    If your iMac is connected to your broadband modem with an Ethernet cable, you can share access to it via WiFi.
    If your iMac is connected to your broadband modem with Airport Wifi, you can share access by plugging a device into the iMac via Ethernet cable.
    So yes, you can share the access by Ethernet cable or WiFi, one or the other. Not both simultaneously.

  • IOS 6, Netgear access point and Internet

    Hi,
    I’ve reached a point where I’m not entirely sure what to do next.
    Here are some quick details (all are on most recent firmware unless stated):
    Router: Draytek Vigor2830n
    Access Point: Netgear WG102
    Devices: iPhone 4, iPhone 5, iPad 2 and two iPad 2’s for comparison on iOS 5.
    So, all devices running iOS 6.1.3/4 will connect to the Netgear access point just fine, can browse the LAN / stream media from network shares but internet access seems to be 'delayed' and can take anywhere between a minute to 20 minutes to connect (I give up after this). In comparison both the iPad 2’s running iOS 5 will gain internet access immediately after connecting to the access point.
    On the other hand, when connecting to the routers wireless on all devices it works flawlessly and internet connection is 'instant'.
    Given the problems that Netgear wifi has had with iOS 6, which were supposedly ‘fixed’ in iOS 6.1, I’m not sure what to do. It’s definitely a software problem, and could well be something to do with the router (along with connecting to the access point and iOS 6), but I’m not sure what to start changing first. iOS 5 works fine, so what has changed in iOS 6 to break it?
    Its not a security issue like before 6.1 and not being able to connect to the access point at all.
    Basically:
    - I either need to figure what in iOS 6 is causing this ‘delay’ and how to fix it
    -Give up on the access point and buy a new one (seems a bit extreme given that every other devices works fine – iOS 5, blackberry, laptops etc).
    -Wait for iOS 7, hopefully in the next couple of weeks and see if it fixes it, though I can find little information on this issue as it is, and nothing to suggest iOS 7 might help. Though if iOS 5 is fine, iOS 6 broke it and 6.1 slightly fixed it, maybe iOS 7 will cure it? Doubt it…but worth waiting a few days.
    Anyone got any suggestions? I have been through all the usual (HTTP proxy, forget this network, reset network settings), nothing makes it work flawlessly like iOS 5 and the issue is the same on a wide spread of devices running iOS 6.

    Dont know my routerand access point works fine. Try http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199 and make sure your setting are correct.
