How can i connect to a wifi network with no internet connection​?

I used to be able to connect my Z10 to a wifi network even when the network had no Internet connectivity when i got my phone in Feb. 2013 (10.0) However ever since the 10.1 update this has stopped working. I cannot connect to my wifi network when there is no Internet connection. I cannot play videos / music from my phone to my tv/music system or connect to my laptop. However my laptop and tv communicate just fine through the same network.
Can anyone recommend anything for this?

Your saved wifi networks should connect automatically whether internet is available or not, you may receive a notification "there appears to be no internet connection".
Update to 10.2, if not available from your carrier then use Sachesi (see other threads).

  • Can't connect to a wifi network with a wep keyid 2

    Hi,
    how do you connect to a wifi network with wep but the keyid is 2, i can't find an option.
    i put the password, in asci and in hexa, and the answer "can't connect to the network" a xp near got connected after changing the key id in configs :((
    did i miss something?
    thanks for help

    I am relatively new to Mac's, as at 40 having had IBM/Windows compatibles since I was 14 (8086 woot!), I am still learning.
    However, I believe the answer is that you must use Key 1. I don't believe OSX offers the chance to use any others. However, in case I am wrong, try putting a $ before the WEP passphrase, but again, I think it only uses Key 1.
    Hope that helps,

    I have purchased and downloaded some TV Shows through iTunes. How can I watch them on my iPad without an internet connection?

    Demo the same thing happened to me.  I purchased a seasons pass for Sons of Anarchy Season 6 and I've got the eposides on my IPad but Airplay won't allow me to watch the episodes without an internet connection or WiFi.  Is there anything else I can do so that I can watch these eposides without an internet or wifi connections?

  • How can I forget a specific wifi network on my Air?

    Everyday at work, when I open my laptop, it automatically connects to a wifi network that I can not use. How can I "forget this network" like I an on my iPhone?

    Click on the wi-fi icon in menu bar and then on Open Network Preferences then Advanced then WiFi (or go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network > Advanced > Wi-Fi) and select the network name and then click the minus button just below.

  • My Apple Tv is connecting to the Wifi network but is not connect to the internet.  So when I look for it on my Airplay it doesn't come up.  I have 3 other ones already working on the network and they are all fine.

    My apple TV is finding and connecting to the Wifi network but then says it is not connected to the internet and then I cannot find it on the iPad through airplay.  I don't want it connected to the internet (as in www.) because for the use I have I only need to use the Apple tvs locally in a sports hall as scoreboards.  I have 3 others working on the same router and they are working fine (as of yesterday)
    On my screen I see (obviously not written like this)
    network connect- yes
    signal strength- fine
    Ip address- fine
    DCN- fine
    Activation- Failed
    This is the only negative I can find and the statement that the Apple TV has connected to the wifi but is not connected to the internet.
    Where has it gone wrong for me. Please help

    It is not properly connected to the network.
    Make sure location is set correctly
    DNS should be on auto (settings - general - network)
    Try ethernet
    Signal strength on device won't account for issues, you would need a network report from istumbler, netstumbler or similar. This will show accurate signal strength along with noise and nearby networks

  • How can I change the preferred WiFi network in my MacBook Pro

    How can I change the preferred order of networks on my MacBook Pro? There used to be one network at my office. Now there is a second higher speed wifi network also present which I would prefer to connect to, but the Macbook connects to the older one unless manually changed.

  • How can I to omitt a wifi network in ios7?

    Hi, I need to omitt, eliminate a known Wifi network from my iPhone. In iOs6 there was a red button for this in the details of the network, even if you were not connected to it. In iOs7 you can only forget a network if you are connected, or so it seems. How can you eliminate a network?

    Not sure what you mean by 'eliminate'.  You can tap the "i" to the right of the network name to "Forget this Network" (even if you're not connected to it).  But you cannot prevent it from showing up as an available network to choose from, that's never been available.

  • How can I forget a hotel wifi network?

    I spent 1 1/2 hours on the phone with apple support and they were not able to help me.  I hope someone here can help me with this. 
    On a macbook pro w/Yosemite
    I am logged into a hotels wifi.  It is the type of thing where you ling to the network, they forward yo to a web page, you accept their user agreement, select their free basic or select to pay for higher speed.  Upon selecting the basic internet, you enter the code the hotel gave you and you are signed in.  Any subsequent times to select their wifi or auto select, you are automatically logged in.  This is what I did.
    Well, the hotel basic is incredibly slow so I want to change and pay for higher speed internet.  The issue is I can't get rid of the automatic login to basic.  I did the following, some before, during, and after the apple support call:
    Network preferences - advanced - forget network
    erased all keychain saved passwords an keys
    deleted all saved wifi networks
    deleted web history
    deleted cache
    deleted cookies
    deleted several other things as directed by support
    emptied recycle bin
    emptied secure recycle bin
    restarted after each.
    There is literally no saved settings or passwords left.  I go to select the network, select it, it automatically logs me in to basic.  Why does it not just go to the web page if all is deleted? 
    Apple support gave up and said it was the hotels issue (have you tried talking to the hotel desk staff about something like this?). I asked the hotel if they could reset the code, they said no.  It expires in 30 days.
    Same thing also happens on my iPhone and iPad.
    It seems that their server is remembering my addresses and automatically signing in.  How can I stop this?
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you,

    Thanks, I was hoping there was a way for me to delete their connection from my end.
    Network System Preferences, Highlight WiFi in the left hand panel, click the Advanced... button, then just highlight the network and press the "-" button.

  • TS1398 My ipad will not connect to other wifi networks. It has connected to my main home network but will not connect to the booster network in my home (it has previously!) It will also not connect to other networks outside my home.

    Hi
    I just got new router and had to reset my network settings on IPad. Since then, my ipad will connect onto the main home network but will not attach to my extension booster (netgear) which is linked to the home network. It will also not attach to networks outside my home that it has previously worked with. i have reset the settings again, powered off and on again, updated to the latest IOS update, but nothing is working. Please help, as I can only use wifi in a few rooms in my house and i do not have 3G on my my ipad.

    Did you try forgetting the network and starting all over again?
    Settings>WiFi>Network Name>Tap the blue arrow>Forget this Network. Restart your iPad and then try joining again.
    Try rebooting your router. Even though everything else may be connecting to your Network, it might help with the iPad. Unplug the router for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.
    Reset Network settings on the iPad?
    Settings>>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. You will have to start all over again, Tap WiFi in the settings, find your network and enter the password.

  • How can i play stuff from my laptop on one internet connection to my apple tv 2 on a different internet connection

    Just wondered if it was possible to have my apple tv on one Internet connection and have my laptop on a totally different connection and still be able to stream content across. I have tried this and my Apple TV 2 can not find my library even though i have turned Home Sharing on. if i were to connect my laptop to the same wireless connection as my apple tv then i have no problems with connecting. Im wanting to maybe leave my laptop on at home and maybe access my content on apple tv from another house
    Many Thanks
    Marcus

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    For what are fairly obvious reasons you are not able to do that.

  • Connecting two networks with two internet connections

    Hi All
    The situation is this. Two firms situated next door to each other and linked by their businesses and by their family ties, wish to connect their two networks together. They both have internet connections. The reason is for security, in the event of one internet going down they can use the other one.
    As I see it, we could use a wireless bridge/repeater to connect the two ethernets together, turn off DHCP in both networks, and manually configure the IP addresses on one network to say 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.100 and set the gateway as the router address in that network, again manually allocated. Then on the other network set the scope to 192.168.1.101 to 192.168.1.200 with the router on that network set in this range.
    In the event of failure of one internet connection, it would just require the gateway to be changed for those pcs to access the router on the other network.  I know of a little program which would do that automatically.
    Would this work? If so which Linksys equipment would I need to bridge the two networks. I know some equipment will do the bridging and allow wireless clients to connect, so that would be useful, I know it slows it down by half, but this might be acceptable.
    Will there be other problems rearing their ugly heads which I haven't considered.
    The networks are not large, so manual IP configuration is not a problem.
    Thanks

    I presume both networks are using wireless connections.  If you can see your neighbour's network on your computer and vice versa, all you need is the passphrase to connect.  You may have to disable filter mac address in your router.
