Can't connect to attwifi hot spots

After the iPhone 3.0 update, the phone appears to try to auto-connect to the attwifi hot spots when I run Safari, but it just displays a "Connecting" screen and the spinning clock(?) thing forever and ever. I tried the old Easy WiFi app, but as I'm not connected, it can't log me in because I'm nnot connected. Nice how that works, isn't it? Anyway, please help if you can. Direct me to a manual login if possible or help me figure out this auto-connect business. Thanks.

On your iPhone, go to Settings > General > Reset, and select Reset Network Settings.
This will erase all wi-fi network settings stored on your iPhone. This will require re-connecting to all wi-fi networks that you have access to along with re-entering the password for protected wi-fi networks.

My iPhone 5 keeps wanting to connect to my hot spot

My iPhone 5 keeps on wanting to connect to my hot spot. will not let me select to setting to stop can some one help

Hi RouxWessels,
Are you saying that you are unable to go to Settings and turn your Personal Hotspot to OFF?
If that is the case, the article below will provide some troubleshooting steps:
iOS: Troubleshooting Personal Hotspot
Basic troubleshooting
Confirm that your iOS device, computer, and wireless plan all meet the system requirements for Personal Hotspot.
Verify that Personal Hotspot is enabled by tapping Settings > General > Cellular > Personal Hotspot.
Verify the Internet connection on your iOS device by tapping Safari and loading a new webpage.
If one connection type doesn't work, try another (for example, instead of connecting using Wi-Fi, try using USB or Bluetooth).
Try disabling and reenabling Personal Hotspot from Settings > Personal Hotspot or Settings > General > Cellular > Personal Hotspot.
Install the latest version of iOS. Tap Settings > General > Software Update.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
If none of the previous steps resolves your issue, restore the iPhone.
If you are still experiencing issues, continue with the following troubleshooting steps.Collapse All Sections | Expand All Sections
Wi-Fi troubleshooting
USB troubleshooting
Bluetooth troubleshooting
Additional Information
Additional tips
Depending on your cellular network connection, incoming or outgoing phone calls may interrupt your Personal Hotspot connection. After you end the call, Personal Hotspot should automatically reconnect with your devices.
If you are outside your wireless carrier's network coverage area, you may be roaming. If that is the case, you will need to have Settings > General > Cellular > Data Roaming set to On to use Personal Hotspot.Data roaming charges will apply. Check with your wireless carrier if you are roaming to verify any additional charges.
When Personal Hotspot is enabled, your iOS device automatically shares your Internet connection with your computer when connected using USB.
Example: When you connect iPhone to your computer to charge or sync with iTunes. To avoid unnecessary data charges, turn off Personal Hotspot when not in use.
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

Can't load SSL sites when connected to Verizon Hot Spot

So I'm testing out a Verizon iPhone for my company. Great experience so far; only one dropped phone call!
Recently, when connected to the internet via the phone's hot spot, I'm no longer able to load SSL websites. A good example of this is logging into gMail. Moreover, I can load the Facebook login page, however I cannot complete login and I can't verify any certificates (or force trust or anything). Moreover, my company/personal e-mail won't load either.
Once I try to force the certificate, I'm taken to a Verizon page about enabling the Hot Spot feature (which doesn't make sense, since I can browse other sites just fine and the feature is already being paid for by my company).
Has anyone else experienced this?
The issue persists on all devices (iPad, other iPhones, computer), I've reset network settings, changed my hot spot password, performed a hard reset; nothing seems to work.

Those two are essentially the same owners, same place.

I really think it's something with them, but have you tried tweaking the settings yet on the MBP? Like MTU & such?

HOWTO: Connect Alien Wireless Hot Spot To Time Capsule/Airport

I switched over to a wireless device as my ISP, as my local Cable company boosted the bill 50%, and there is no DSL or any other service. A nice '10GB' plan. I should be able to eck by on that.
Naturally, my little 4G 'Hot Spot' works great with a computer or two connected to it wirelessly. But there are no ethernet ports, and it basically 'blocks' when a Time Machine backup goes through it to the Time Capsule, when that connects to it. Its little CPU is too busy with that backup to respond to other requests. It's itty bitty humming bird heart can't take it. Sigh.
After discovering that Apple does not allow one to bridge (aka 'extend') a wireless network unless it supports 'WDS' was an annoyance. Naturally the little pocket-sized hot spot box doesn't support 'WDS'. The point where I discovered that Apple's firmware DISABLES the switched ethernet ports when it connected to an existing wireless network was especially annoying.
After a little brainstorming and searching around I determined that THERE IS A WAY!: Old School!
Various manufacturers make a device called a 'Wireless Ethernet Bridge'. What this is intended for is ethernet peripherals like game consoles or printers or computers that don't have a wireless connection. It connects to the wireless network FOR an ethernet wired device that can't. Even ones that can't because the manufacturer is being an [expletive deleted].
So, basically jump through the hoops required to configure your bridge to connect to your wireless network, whatever it may be, plug it into the 'WAN' port of the Airport/Time Capsule router, and set the time capsule/airport to 'Bridge' the connection.
Green light!
I posted the gruesome details on this site...

How can I use my iPhone'hot spot to send email from my computer ?

Hi,
My land line is dead ... so no phone nor internet at home. But I can use my iPhone'hot spot to get on the web from my iMac. Great ... it works !
Oups ! I cannot send email from my computer using my iPhone's hot spot with Mail.
How do I do that ?
Regards.
Robert Lespérance

Hi iCare,
Thanks for helping ... All that configuration is already done. I am able to surf the web from my computer using my iPhone's hotspot.
When I want to send an email from my computer, I get a message asking me to select the the SMTP server. Then I select my usual ISP server, but the message comes back telling me it does not work.
Is there any other configuration to do ?

How can I set up a hot spot on my new iPad. I can't call 611 as suggested.

I would like to set up a hot spot with my new iPad but can't figure out how to do that. I cannot log on to the suggested web site and, of course, I can't dial 611 from my iPad.

Good pointer. It lead me to a phonenumber to call and a real person who said she could help set up my personal hot spot. After that things too a turn for the worse. She could not set up the hot spot without cancelling my grandfathered unlimited data plan. She said I had to cancel that and buy a $50/mo 5Gig plan. I told her that is not what the AT&T wireless iPad support web site said. She wouldn't budge and I wouldn't cave in and accept a new plan - so - I did not get a hot spot, but I get to keep my unlimited $30/mo data plan.
End of discussion for now. I'm going to try to find a basis for an appeal. Wish me luck. If I succeed, I'll post here. If not, thanks to the members of this support community for your assistance.

Connecting to Personal Hot Spot

I have difficulty connecting a new iMac to my Personal Hot Spot (phone or iPad) through my WiFi icon in the menu bar. The device shows up but it will not connect and I'm forced to open Network Settings in the System Preferences, search for the Hot Spot under Networks, then connect. My old iMac would always connect via the menu bar. Is there a setting I am missing?

X6 - Can't connect to free wifi spots

I'm having a problem connecting to free wifi spots, eg McDonalds etc.
My X6 can see there is a wifi network but when I try to connect it asks for the pre-shared key. As far as I know the free wifi (McD) doesn't have a key???
Is there a setting I need to enable first?
FWIW I can connect to my home/work protected wifi networks fine.
Thank.

It sounds that a key is really needed even though it is free.
Try using Opera Mobile/Mini as the browser and let us know what you see.
At my local McD, it will bring up a registration page for the cloud wi-fi. However, I have an O2 sim, so the nokia web browser keeps asking if I have a O2 wi-fi plan (which I don't), but never let me go any further.
Opera mobile (or mini, can't remember which) sorts this out ...

Can i use iphone5 as hot spot w/verizon

Call Verizon & have this feature added to your account.

How can I Create a white hot spot.

How can I create a white hotspot in an image, i.e. A bright spot with feathered edges for a figure to walk out of, a bit like a sun?

Create new layer, make an eliptical selection, and fill with the colour of choice. A muted yellow perhaps.
Use a high value Gausian blur to soften and feather the layer. High values of blur will make the flare very thin, so if too thin, duplicate the layer.
Use Free Transfor to size and shape the flare.
or
Select the figure, and copy to a new layer.
Double click the new layer to open Layer Styles, and use Outer Glow, and some inner glow. This is by far the better option as you can control the inner and outer glow independantly.
or
Open a new document with a square aspect ratio. Make it at least as big as the other image.
make a new layer, and make foreground colour yellow, and BG colour white
Go Filter > Render Fibers. Use full strength, and a lowish variance. You are looking for strong, closely spaced vertical streaks.
Now go Filter > Distort > Polar coordinates. Make sure Rectangular to Polar is checked and OK it.
Duplicate the layer to your other image document, and place behind the layer with your figure on it.
You can play with the flare layer with curves, or maybe add a wee bit of blur and then harden with curves or levels
If you want the flare layer to overlap the figure a bit, Ctrl (Cmd) click the figure layer to load it as a selection, and add a layer mask to the flare layer. Move the flare layer above the figure layer. Now feather the layer mask, using the Mask Properties panel, or use Mask Edge options in the Mask properties panel to expand, or contract the mask.
Good luck, and let us see the end result.

Can't access camera via hot spot static IP from cellphone

I have an AT&T Unite hotspot with a static IP. I have an IP camera connected to to the hotspot with the proper port forwarding etc. performed. I CAN access the camera from my cellphone if I go through any wifi first. If I try to directly access the hotspot using the 4G network I cannot see the camera. What gives? Is there something I can do to the cellphone to allow this? Thanks.

I suggest you review the camera operators manual. I suspect the camera can only be controlled by a cellphone connected to the same network as the camera.

How can I place an image hot spot on top of a ap div with an image in the background of the ap div?

It won't let me

Right. You can't make an image map out of a background. You must insert the image directly into the page (HTML markup). Then apply hotspot tools to the image.

I just figured out the print quality issue for my wife with her new iMac and new printer.
She replaced both at once and she couldn't understand why her Artisan 730 was lower quality then her Epson R280 when they had the same specs.
Turns out the newer printer had the option to connect via wifi which we used during setup.
The driver options are completely different depending on how you connect.
Once I connected via USB the correct options were available and the print quality was better.
Looking at the R2400 it dies not have wifi, but while researching the problem for my wife someone esle was having an issue updating to the latest printer driver.
If you go into the print utility from the Printer and Scanner system preference and under the general tab you should have driver 5.5.
One user had to delete the old printer driver before Software Update loaded the newer printer driver.

On my MacBook Pro (w Snow Leopard) I always had to reconnect my wifi at home when it woke up. I upgraded my router from an old Netgear to a newer N D-Link and stopped having to do that.
I would be surprised you would have that problem with an Airport Extreme, you might check to see if there is a firmware update for it.

Can I use my mobile hot spot in Europe?

Can I use the mobile hotspot feature on this phone in Europe?

Cmcculla, I hope you're planning on having some fun in Europe and not just business! I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the Galaxy S III is not a global device and will only work on WiFi in Europe. A future update is expected to add global capability to this phone, but it is not available at this time. I apologize for any inconvenience.

My ipad will not connect to the hot spot on my new iphone

My ipad will not connect to my hotspot on my new phone and I do not know how to delete the old phone? Does anyone have an answer?
Thanks

Did you look in the date and time settings at all? Settings>General>Date & Time>Set Automatically>On. There are a nmber of users reporting issues with the app store and iTunes connection problems in the last couple of days. I'm starting to wonder it it an Apple server issue but I am having no problems at all.
