how do i connet to enternet when away from home

If you have an iPhone you could tether the two together. Alternatively, you could get MiFi - a small gadget that works in a similar way. The network 3 does one for about £120 with a 12GB download over 12 months.

  • How do I get my emails when I am away from home .

    When I use another computer when away from home how do I access my emails.

    Use your email providers webmail page. Go there using an Internet browser and log into your email account.
    Thunderbird has nothing to do with this.

  • How can i access my PowerMac when i am away from home?

    Hi, I have a powermac G5 at home and have just bought a mac book pro. is there any way to set them up so i can access the powermac when i am out traveling with my mac book? I guess i would need to leave the powermac on all the time, but how do i get the two connected? i have far to many files to use iDisc and i have a lot of extra drives attached to the powermac at home.
    Any chance the answers could be simple!!! I'm relatively new to macs and know almost nothing about accessing computes over the internet.
    thanks for your help.

    Hi Martin,
    I am just implementing something which may be of interest to you.
    I have a home network of a G5 Quad and several PCs which I wanted to be able to access, securely while I was away from home. (Using a XP laptop).
    I have just purchased a LinkSys RVL200 VPN router and ASDL modem and after a fair amount of trial and error managed to get it working to my ISP, British Telecom.
    Effectively I can now connect my laptop from anywhere on the internet and it is as if I am sat on home with it connected to my local network. Most importantly it runs via an https: tunnel (may not be the correct phrase) so it is secure.
    To connect all I have to do is go to my IP address via the browser using https://, logon on and it creates a connection through which I can access my Mac and PCs. Once the connection is in place then I can run any application on my laptop and it connects fine. (Last night I tested it running ftp to my G5 which is hidden behind the firewall.)
    The only thing I am not sure about is how it would connect using a Mac rather than an XP machine (the secure connect icon appears in the tray) but if it fits what you are looking for I'm sure LinkSys could advise on whether it would work.

  • I suddenly can't get email or internet access on my I-phone 4G when I'm away from home. how can I fix this?

    Yesterday, I suddenly lost the ability to access email and Internet on my I-phone when I'm away from home (where we have Wifi).   Is there a simple way to fix this?  I have gone into Settings and can't figure out what to do. 

    if you're away from how do you access data? through your network? check if you turned off your data. Go to SETTINGS>GENERAL>NETWORK
    turn on Cellular Data if it's OFF
    3G should also be ON for faster access.

  • Is it possible to transfer iMOVIE 11 projects between my iMac and iPad2 so that I can work on projects when I'm away from home?

    ARD is totally unnecessary and inapplicable for your scenario. ARD is a Mac OS X application for managing other Macs and is not useful if you want to connect to a Mac from some other OS. Mac OS X has a VNC client build int, so VNC,  or one of the number of other remote control solutions - LogMeIn, for instance, if they offer a Linux version - is where you want to be looking.

  • Why can't I get my email messages when i'm away from home?

    My Blackberry gets emails when i'm at home via our wireless network, but when I'm away from home, I don't get any email messages or text messages at all.  We have both the home WiFi wireless network "on" and the Mobile Network is on.  What should I do so I can get emails when I'm away from home?

    Without a Blackberry Data Plan you can't get email pushed to your Curve.  While on your wi-fi network you are able to access your email, but away from that link you need a data plan.

  • How can I get my iPhone 4 repaired while away from home?

    I will be working in Manila in the Philippines for the next few months.
    My iPhone 4 has developed a hardware fault and needs to be repaired. It is out of warranty, but I am willing to pay for the cost of the repair myself. The Apple Authorized Service Providers here inform me that the only organizations who carry out repairs are the two official iPhone distributors in the country. Unfortunately, neither of these companies are willing to repair my iPhone because it was not purchased from them.
    I am told that I will have to fly back to the country I originally purchased the unit from to have the work carried out there.
    People travel and work all around the world these days. Do Apple really expect their customers to fly to a different country just to get their phone
    repaired? How is someone travelling on a business trip supposed to manage without his phone if it develops a fault while he is away from
    home?
    Does anyone know a way I can get my iPhone fixed while I am here?
    Chris

    As I explained, I'm not asking for Apple to provide warranty support. I'm quite willing to pay for the cost myself. The problem is that none of the authorized Apple service centers are willing to accept the unit for repair because it wasn't purchased from them.
    Its quite shameful that Apple permits its official support organizations to behave in this way. Someone working away from home should be able to get their phone repaired if it develops a fault. These things are not toys for many of us. A lot of people depend on them to carry out their business.

  • I want to be able to access my main computer when I'm away from home. Are there honest and trusted 3rd party applications that allow access to the home computer when I'm traveling?

    the job takes me away from home and at times I need information stored on the iMac. I would like to access the main computer and its files through a second computer, Mac Pro. Is there a service that will allow me to access my main computer when I'm traveling? For example if I'm in Brasil and need to access files found in my main computer in Canada, what reliable allows me to connect between the 2 computers?

    Yes,

  • Mail will not send when i am away from  home

    When I am wirelessly connected and successfully receiving Mail email, I still cannot send messages from Mail, as it requires "authentication". I have "Ping-ed" it and everything seems fine there. It even seems here I have access open to the local smtp.comcast.net. (At home I have comcast, too.) I also tried setting the port from 25 to I think it was 587, as suggested in someone else's posting.
    Please share your wisdom!
    Thank you.

    All internet service providers have restrictions on using an SMTP server that is outside of their network or that isn't provided by the ISP used for connecting to the internet.
    Is this email account provided by your ISP - Comcast?
    If so and you happen to be connected to the internet via Comcast when away from home, you shouldn't have any problems sending messages with your Comcast email account and SMTP server.
    If not connected to the internet via Comcast when away from home, the required settings are determined by the ISP used for connecting to the internet.
    The ISP used by a hotel/motel may not have such a restriction for registered guests who are usually given a password for provided internet access when checking in.
    Most Airports with WiFi access require a payment for internet access and the same at a Starbucks for example but some non-chain coffee shops provide free WiFi internet access and the same for some restaurant chains but this doesn't mean the internet service provider doesn't impose restrictions on using an SMTP server that is outside of their network.
    Long story short, you need to know the ISP's SMTP server restrictions or required settings when using an ISP for internet access other than your own.

  • HT204389 Siri and maps were working fine.  Now they do not work at all when I'm away from home.  What gives?!

    All of a sudden siri and maps stopped working.  They were working fine while I was traveling.  Now they only work while I'm at home.  How can I fix this?

    Hi Gangstag,
    Since both apps use Location Services, this may be the issue.
    Follow the troubleshooting steps for Siri below:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Siri
    You can turn Location Services on for Siri by selecting Location Services Settings on the prompt, or by going to Settings > Privacy > Location Services and turning on both Location Services and Siri.
    When you first use Siri with another application that uses Location Services, you will need to turn on Location Services for that application. For example, if you create a reminder to call your mom when you get home and Reminders or Siri has not been used before with Location Services, a prompt will appear saying that you will need to turn them on in Location Services Settings.
    Hope this helps ...

    What you need to do is to configure your broadband modem to forward the appropriate traffic (normally by port forwarding) to your PowerMac G5. Additionally, it is suggested you have a static WAN IP address else be using a dynamic DNS service like DynDNS…
    http://www.dyndns.com/
    … and your PM G5 has a static LAN IP address as well. Otherwise, the easier way is to just put you PM into your modem's DMZ and all traffic will be sent to it.
    Once you do that then you'll have no problems getting access to you PM. However, you need to be aware that you will be opening up your PM to attacks from the WAN side. The best is if you're able to administer your modem from the WAN so you can turn on and off functionality as you need to.
    So, what you need to do first is have administrator access to your modem.

  • HT2470 Since my computer automatically remembers my email password when I use my computer, I forgot my password to use when I am away from home. Is there a way to retrieve my password from my computer when I am at home?

    When I am at home my computer automatically logs me into my email, so over time I have forgotten my password.  Recently at work I was asked my password and what I thought was my password wouldn't work. Does finder keep this information where I can retrieve it?

    "Keychain Access" in your Utilities folder is your friend for many password-related issues.
    -Open Keychain Access and in the search field enter the name of the server for which you need the password.
    -Select the server and "Get Info".
    -At the bottom of the info panel will be a "Show password" checkbox. Enter your system password and voila the server password should be revealed.
    Good luck.

  • Cannot connect to the internet when i am away from home

    Hi : We are new at this wifi world so please be "gentle" with me!!  I have a wireless router and it works great when we are at home on our new Dell 1525 but went out of town yesterday and could not connect..the laptop turned on but could not connect to the internet..please help!!!

    The router only allows you access the internet when you are with-in range of your router.  It partly depends on the laptop but generally, most routers allow you to get internet anywhere in your house, yard, and usually about as far as your next door neighbors.  Of course, house design, wall thickness and other house design aspects can affect the routers range.  If you leave your street, the router does not broadcast signal that car.
    If you go out of town and want internet, you have to buy a mobile internet service.

  • Why can't i print from my iphone 5 to HP eprinter when i am away from home?

    You posted in the iPad forum instead of the iPhone forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa  I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

  • How do I stream purchased movies to my Macbook Pro if I've already downloaded them and moved the source files to an external desktop hard drive and I'm away from home?

    I recently added a number of movies to my iTunes library by redeeming digital copeis that came with Blu-rays. Due to limted disc space on my MacBook Pro, and for safe keeping, once I downloaded the movies, I moved the source files to an external desktop hard drive. When I'm home and I'm able to access that external HD via my home network, I'm able to watch the movies without an issue. However, if I'm away from home and I want to watch them, I'm not sure how to do that. I thought I could "stream" purchased movies from within iTunes  - even after downloading them - using "iTunes in the Cloud" but can't figure out how to do that, or it simply isn't possible.
    What are my options?

    I understand that I can't play my downloaded movies when my external HDD is not connected becuase iTunes is looking for the downloaded files. This is not the issue. The issue is that because my HDD is not connected (as in when I'm away from home) I'd like to be able to stream the movies via the cloud.
    If I hadn't downloaded the movies when I redeemed my codes, would I have been able to keep the movies online via Apple iCloud and watched them anytime by streaming them or must the movies be downloaded in order to be viewed on my MacBook?  I read that Apple allows movies purchased (or redeemed) via iTunes to be stored in the cloud via Apple iCloud so that they can be viewed any time, on any device.  IF this is the case, how does it work? From what I can see, it looks like movies can only be "streamed" from the cloud when useing Apple TV; on my iPhone and MacBook Pro, it looks like they need to be downloaded in order to be viewed.
    Can someone clarify this for me?
    Also - Michael - when you said that If I've already downloaded the film but I'm away from my external HDD I should "Delete the entry from the iTunes library so iTunes only sees the iTunes in the Cloud version", what exactly would this mean? Would this mean that I could then stream the movie from the cloud or would I have to re-download it to my Mac's internal HDD in order to watch it?
    Many thanks!
