HT5439 Connection wifi at hotel

When connecting to wifi at a hotel, one must access the Internet to access the terms and conditions. How do I access the Internet using Apple TV?

You cannot as ATV does not have a browser.  Speak to the hotel and ask if they have a wifi or wire that does not need internet style verification to join it.  If you intend to airplay the device must be on the same network too whick may be a problem if the let you wire.

  • Connection timeout on hotel wifi - only with MacBook8.1 (810.9)  configd plug-in:8.1 (810.9)

    I'm having a "Connection Timeout" issue while trying to connect to my hotel's WIFI.
    I bought an ex-lease refurbished white MacBook (Build 12E55 - 2.4GHz, the last 2010 model I think) a couple of weeks ago. I bought it so I could use it while on vacation in Bali, Indonesia. I've got OS X 10..8.4 installed. 
    At home in Australia, this MacBook connected to my home WIFI with absolutely no issues at all.
    Now that I'm in Bali, I'm surprised to find that every time I try to connect to the WIFI at the hotel (where I'm staying for a whole month), I get a "Connection Timeout" error. I'm surprised because my iPhone connects to the hotel WIFI with no problem at all, as does our two iPads and the Android phones that belong to other family members. It's only my MacBook that struggles, even though I get even better signal strength indicated on my MacBook compared to my other devices.
    I can connect my MacBook to my iPhone hotspot fine, though I'd prefer to use the free hotel WIFI over my very small 3G data allowance.
    So the problem isn't that my MacBook can't connect to any WIFI, because it did at home and it still can to my iPhone hotspot.
    And the problem isn't with the router, because all other devices work flawlessly.
    I've trawled many forums and articles trying to find a solution. Here's everything I've tried already, that I can remember. (Not in this order and not all at once.)
    Rebooted MacBook (duh)
    Sitting directly under the WIFI router. (It's not a signal strength issue.)
    Set up new Network > Location. Deleted Ethernet and Bluetooth PAN so it's just WIFI in the list.
    Renewed DHCP Lease countless times.
    Tried manual TCP/IP variations. It doesn't help that I'm not sure what to put in the IPv4 Address field. I do know the Subnet Mask and Router IP from looking at my iPhone network info.
    Tried using my MAC address as the DHCP Client ID. Also tried just using "1" or leaving it blank.
    I don't know what an IPv6 is either.
    Tried BootP and completely Manual setups but not really sure of the correct settings to try.
    Tried using the DNS servers that I found on my iPhone network info for the hotel WIFI. (One of them is 8.8.8.8 which I think is Google's DNS thing?)
    Tried checking Auto Proxy Discovery and Use Passive FTP Mode, since it was suggested as part of a solution in a forum thread.
    Tried changing the MTU to a couple of other settings from an article I read. I think one was around 1453 and the other was 1494 or something close to that.
    Tried resetting PRAM
    Tried resetting SMC
    Tried a variation on resetting SMC that involved pressing down the normal keys plus one extra, for 10 secs, since it worked for someone who was told to do that by an Apple Care person. (He didn't know why it worked and other forum posters thought it was supposed to have been a SMC reset.)
    Checked the Network> Wi-Fi in System Information to see if the Channel is compatible. The router uses Channel 1 and my MacBook is capable of using Channel 1.
    Checked my country profile. It's X1. I have no idea if that's good. All I know is that I'm in Indonesia not Australia and I'm having WIFI issues with this hotel network.
    Checked the PHY Mode. Supported are 802.11 a/b/g/n. The hotel router uses 802.11n.
    Made sure I was using WPA2 Personal.
    Tried deleting all WIFI-related passwords in Keychain.
    Tried deleting all Network-related preference files.
    Tried removing all LaunchDaemons and LaunchAgents.
    It's not a "lost WIFI connection when waking from sleep" issue but I tried turning off sleep anyway.
    My husband even had the nerve to unplug the hotel router (small hotel, we're the only guests at the moment) for 10 minutes hoping it will reboot. But I don't know if that's the actual modem or just a WIFI repeater thing (sorry, can't remember the right terms). It didn't work anyway.
    I've run out of options, other than just sucking it up and getting a big 3G data allowance since I'm here for a month.
    If there is anything else I can try - perhaps working out how to set up my Network manually properly, please help me out. Here is everything in System Information that might help. I'll happily provide any other info.

    Sorry. The topic title got mucked up when I tried to paste in my System Information. And I can't paste it in using my iPhone without it going haywire. I can provide any details you need.

  • Can't connect to wifi in hotels in Ireland with iPhone 5

    Can't connect to wifi in hotels in Ireland with my iPhone 5. My iPad 3 works fine. When I enter the wifi password for the network I always get the error message "Incorrect password for XYZ". No problem with iPad 3.

    Returned home only to find the same situation with my home network. Much time on chat support with Apple. Short story long: Must have been corrupted software. Had to restore original original software then add back apps and music. Couldn't back up before doing the restore so I lost a bunch of pics, but at least the phone is working once again.

  • Connect MBP to hotel wifi ISP & use APexpress as a router for other puters?

    I am traveling and have connected to my hotel's wifi T-Mobile connection. I've also connected my MacBookPro to my AirPort Express via ethernet cable. How can I cause the APE to send a wifi signal to my pal's windows (xp) machine ?
    Is this possible ?
    Thanks,
    ~ FFLAK
    MBP17   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Open the AirPort Admin Utility (/Applications/Utilities/).
    Select your base station from the list.
    Click the Configure icon.
    Click the Network Tab.
    Deselect the checkbox for "Distribute IP Addresses".

    Have you tried clearing Safari? Clear Safari, close Safari completely and reboot your iPad. Try again.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Cookies and Data.
    If you are running iOS 5 or iOS 6 you close apps like this. Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
    If you are running iOS 7, you close apps this way. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • My Ipad connects with my hotel wifi, but does not indicate that it is a secure wifi, even though it requires a password to access - no lock symbol, hence no password request, hence no internet access - help.

    My IPad connects with my hotel wifi, but does not indicate that it is a secure wifi, even though it requires a password to access - no lock symbol appears against the wifi network, hence no password request, hence no internet access - help. My collegue who also has an Ipad can access the same wifi with ease, so it must be something to do with the settings on my machine, although checking the two machines, there appears to be no difference in the settings.

    My experience with hotel wifi is that it's an open, and unsecured, connection, but unless you agree to their terms on a launch page, you can't go any further or connect. Sometimes I need to force safari to come up and even make it go to a page, to trigger the auto load of the 'agree to our terms' page.
    Unless your machine is work provided so maybe could be blocked from unsecured net access?

  • HT5622 I have a new iPad mini. trying to set up my iCloud. I have a wifi connection at a hotel. trying to connect to my iCloud account. Getting a message saying "Verification Failed" the request timed out.

    If you see the white WiFi bars in the upper left corner, that simply means that the iPad has detected a WiFi network, and that does not mean that you are connected to the Internet.
    Can you open web sites with Safari?

  • HT3867 I am connected to the hotel wifi network, but the login screen does not appear.

    Hi,
    I am connected to my hotel wifi network, but the login screen does not appear. I am able to access the login page on my PC, but on the iPhone it does not appear and just tries to connect to the webpage (e.g. google.co.uk), and eventually gives up. I've tried opening pages in Safari and Chrome, but none cause the login screen to appear. I have also tried trying to log into the login page that the PC opens when connected to the wifi, but the same thing happens. I am using a iPhone 3G with the latest iOS version 6.0.1.
    Is there a way to make the iPhone try to open the login page?
    Ben.

    I have the exact same problem as the original poster and I tried many times already the solution proposed by trstark66 and it's still not working. It's not working for both my iPad and iPhone 5. I'm using the latest iOS version available all the time. I have my iPad since 3 years and my iPhone since 1 years and I always had that problem. I'm an airline pilot so I'm always in hotels. I asked my colleagues who also have iPhones and iPads and they all have the same problems from time to time. And when I go in an apple store they all say that it's the first time they hear about that problem. I never have that problem with my PCs, my previous phone and my BB playbook. Only with my iPhone and iPad....since now 3 years...Always the same problem. I'm connected to the Hotel Network, I have an IP address but nothing popup to register with a user name, password or just to access the "I have read and accept the condition.../connect". And when I go in Safari or other Browsers, I am not redirected to a login page. All I have is a message saying cannot access the webpage because I'm not connected to Internet. I tried already hard resets, on/off Wi-Fi, automatic connexion off, forget this network, reset network setting...
    My solution for now is to use my Boingo account. I connect to the hotel Network and then I use the Boingo app to connect to Internet.
    But, sometimes it works the first time or suddenly for no reason.
    Very funny, I was using Boingo on my ipad to write this message in my Hotel room because I was unable to use my free connection as usual. When I tried to press "Add Reply" it failed and I had the message "An error occured while trying to submit your post, please try again". The reason was that boingo was disconnected since I was taking too long to write this message. So I wasn't connected to Internet anymore. I opened a second tab in Safari and what did I see!... the login page to access the free connection from the hotel. This is crazy. Apple, you really suck with hotel/coffee hotspots... I tried for hours and nothing, now hours later I just open a new tab and it works. But tomorrow I know I will try the same and it will not work again. It shouldn't be that complicated.

  • What is the best way to connect my ipad to the high-speed Internet connection in a hotel room

    what is the best way to connect my ipad to the high speed inernet connection in a hotel room

    every connection is a bit different. Generally, connect to the wifi, then you may need to open Safari, and may even need to try to get to one of your bookmarked pages to trigger the 'agree to our terms' page to come up.
    As to it kicking you off every so often, there are sometimes glitches with the wifi on iPads, you can also be subject to any programming the hotel has. Like I've noticed various places that only allow you to log on for a period of time before having to relogin.
    most hotels have 1-800 numbers, so you can always try calling that to see if their tech support has any tips for the frequent disconnection issue.

    I am unable to connect wifi on my phone 4s since last 2 weeks... I am living in shanghai and did not have this issue since 2 weeks... iPad works fine... Please suggest some measures... Tried the on off reset settings etc. but no luck ...
    In fact after updating the software to the latest version I am having more of this... Sometimes the wifi button freezes an I can't even slide it to on / off...
    Thanks

    Noooo! Actually I too had d same prob wit my iPhone 4S. When I connect to my wifi network it won't get connected or it wil be grey scaled! I took it to d istore and since I had warranty they replaced my IPhone. It iPad charger has high volt than ur iPhone charger so when u connect wit it, there is a chance where large amount of current passes thru ur iPhone. So for sure it wil damage ur motherboard and its parts! Many said that iOS 6 or 6.0.1 or 6.1 was d reason for tis wifi prob! But apple never made its mistake wit it's software. If and only if u hav hardware prob u wil hav these sort of wifi prob Bluetooth prob! So best way s to replace ur iPhone!

  • When I connect to the hotel wireless, it takes 2 or 3 minutes to be redirected to the login page

    Hi all,
    I have a problem with my Firefox 4 beta: when I connect to the hotel wireless, and I start the browser, I should be automatically redirected to the hotel's main login page.
    In FF4b I get 2 error messages (attached) and I am not redirected immediately... it takes 2 or 3 minutes to be redirected.
    If I don't want to wait I have to start IE, make the login, and then get back to FF4b.
    I believe this situation is connected with the "Test Pilot" and/or the "sync" function of FF...
    Any ideas about what I should do? Any setting I should change?
    Thanks,
    Tozé

  • I connect wifi i have a problem error message shows no IP ADDRESS

    i connect WIFI i have aproblem error message shows dont have ip address. How to solve this problem

    Sounds like a bogus pop up. In any case power down your Mac, your modem, your router. Then power back up in 1 minute sequence; modem, router, Mac.

  • Update time capsule, since ipod not connect wifi to time capsule

    Hello,
    Since I update my Time Capsule(7.5.1), I cannont connect my ipod touch to wifi time Capsule.
    message ipod is : impossible de rejoindre le réseau RES_Didier
    My iMac is connected, my PC Windows is connected ans my Apple TV to.
    Only my ipod cannot connect.
    But, if i connect my ipod to an other wifi network it is ok.
    That is only with my time capsule that I cannot connect wifi!!
    Do you know why ? can you help me ? (sorry my english is not very good)
    Thanks
    Didier

    Did you upgrade install Mavericks? I think this can lead to all kinds of issues.. clean install the OS is the only way.
    Do a full factory reset of the TC..
    Use all SMB names.. that is short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    I strongly recommend when you have trouble.. even different names for 2.4ghz and 5ghz. So you can keep track of where the issue is.
    Also use ethernet.. if you have not got ethernet port, buy a Thunderbolt to ethernet (much the preferred) or USB to ethernet.. if thunderbolt is missing or used.
    Open network utility on your computer and find the listing for the TC.
    ie scan via netstat.
    Make sure you have ipv6 turned on to link local.. this is now essential.
    Use the IP address if it is static rather than name.. and try it in full network isolation by ethernet.
    So Go .. Connect to server.
    AFP://10.0.1.1 (at default IP)
    The default password is public.. you will need to type in a password.
    If it fails the TC could be faulty.
    Use ping via the terminal to make sure the network is working.
