Help! Atnt disabled my ability to connect to a wifi when I got cancelled

Hey All,
Maybe someone can help me because this seems like complete bs and unlikely BUT. Because I'm having financial problems I wasn't able to pay my bill until next week. So Atnt turned off my service, which I can understand.
However now NONE of my applications will use the wifi. I'm trying to use skype until the service is back on and it won't connect. I turn on the wifi, connect to my wireless router ( like I always do ) and the iPhone shows it's connected to the wifi but none of the phones applications will use it.
I've tried multiple wifi's from friends to hot spots and non work. I turn the airplane mode on and turn the wifi on so its not connect to Atnt and it still won't work.
Anyone help me with this? It started the day Atnt turned my service off. Atnt shouldn't have that type of control over this device so I'm thinking maybe its a bug they don't care about and I have to reset something. Anyone help!

Hey BHorton15,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like your iPhone doesn't appear under Devices in iTunes after you connect it to your Windows PC. If that sounds correct, check out this article to resolve the issue:

  • Lost the ability to connect to both WiFi and Bluetooth on my iPhone 4S.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    Have you followed http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559 ?
    Also try settings>general>reset>reset all settings
    If you have followed that article and restored your phone and set it up as new and you're still having that issue you may call and explain you followed the article and are still having the problem. Most likely they will either set up a replacement for you. If they ask you to set up the one time phone support agreement, and they assist you with a restore again, they won't bill you if they end up having to repair it.

    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
    DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...

  • My Iphone has family emails that appear randomly when I try to update apps or generally have to log into my account. It comes up as my sister in laws address. She was once connected to our account when she got her phone at first. How can I remove?

    My Iphone has family emails that appear randomly when I try to update apps or generally have to log into my account. It comes up as my sister in laws address. She was once connected to our account when she got her phone at first. How can I remove? There are only two other email address's associated with my account and hers was never one of them! I do have a cloud set up on my phone. I thought this issue had gone away when I canged my passwords, but I just registered a new phone yesterday and its happening again!
    Can anyone help me?

    Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them, and all future updates will require you to enter the password associated with this ID, whether you are currently using this ID for purchases or not.  If you are being prompted for your sister-in-law's Apple ID when updating it means that there must be one or more apps on your phone that was purchased using her Apple ID.  (When she synced with your computer it may have transferred this app to your library.  It was subsequently synced to your phone.)  The only way to stop the prompt for her ID is to delete these apps from your phone and your iTunes library and repurchase them using your Apple ID.

  • How come my macbook Pro doesn't automatically connect to my wifi when it is saved under known networks?

    How come my macbook Pro doesn't automatically connect to my wifi when it is saved under known networks and i have the box checked under network settings?

    Random35,
    does your wi-fi router filter access by MAC address? If it does, then have you added your MacBook Pro’s MAC address to your router’s whitelist of acceptable MAC addresses?

  • My ipod only connects to the wifi when i am in the room of the router. as soon as i go out of the room into some other room it disconnects and doesn't connect again. unless i go to the room of the router. i have an ipod 4 with ios 6.1.6

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now have this problem?
    Did the iPod stay connected before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem. Could be a loose antenna connectin

    You need to manually place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore it in iTunes.  See this article for instructions on connecting your iPod to iTunes in recovery mode.

  • Lost ability to connect to open WiFi router

    I've been using Leopard 10.5 that was installed when I bought the computer, and just updated to 10.5.4 which solved a problem I had running the original Adobe CS, InDesign was running 100+ percent of the CPU and crashing. But, I also lost the ability to connect to the open, non-WEP WiFi network in my studio. I have no idea why it won't connect and the computer connects fine at home to my airport. I think the router at my studio is a Linksys or something, but I really need to get my MacBook Pro to connect back to the router. Also, airport seems to be scanning continuously and fails to show the networks quickly. It seems very laggy.
    Any suggestions?

    If you see line after line of "Airport Beacon (Lost)" messages, the problem is with 10.5.3 upgrade, if you installed 10.5.4 a few days later when it came out, you still have the problem.
    That is simply not true. Beacons can be "lost" for a lot of reasons - and it has been happening to some people before 10.5.3 [Check the history!|http://discussions.apple.com/search.jspa?threadID=&q=airport+10.5.2&ob jID=&dateRange=thisyear&userID=&numResults=15&rankBy=10001]. It might be the 10.5.3 upgrade in some situations. I am a bit suspicious of the interaction between some Netgear routers and OS X, but I have not tested that theory very thoroughly.

  • HELP!! Macbook wont stay connected automatically to wifi? why?

    I live in apartments with tons of wifi signals. I have a secured wifi and no matter how many times i enter my password and everything my macbook wont stay connect automatically to my home wifi.
    I have to use diagnostic assistance every time to connect to my wifi. It wont work. I have read some of these other forums but the suggestions don't work. Tried adding unsecured wifi signals to preferred and move to bottom and mine to top. no luck. I don't understand the DNS option so i didn't try it. PLEASE HELP SOMEONE, ANYONE
    THANKS!

    When you live in an area with lots of wifi signals you are in a situation that may cause degradation to your own wifi network.
    When the 54g channels were created it turned out only 3 of those channels can be used, 1, 6 or 11.
    all the other channels bleed.
    So you should use a wireless sniffer such as air radar
    Then look for the 3 strongest signals that are close to you. Then change the channel your wifi is broadcasting on to channel number 1, 6 or 11.
    Unfortunately you may find that no matter what channel you use you are going to be close to someone else on the same channel.
    The solution is to upgrade your network to a wireless N network. Using the 5ghz high band channels you have many more channels to use.
    regarding your network diagnostics dont list any other network other than your own in the preferred networks. Regarding DNS your router should automatically assign a dns server.
