IPhone Hotspot connect to VPN Issue

Hello everyone,
we got some issues using the hotspot feature in combination with VPN over PPTP.
It alaways fails with error: 800 in windows. Browsing the internet works fine.
Tried it with iPhone 5 and 4S. iOS Version 6.1.3 and 7 Beta 3.
Same issue on each Version.
First I thought its maybe a carrier issue but if I use the hotspot feature on an old blackberry (same sim) the vpn works fine.
Does anyone got this issue also or know how to fix it?
Regards
David

Connect it to iTunes.

HT204023 How do I check connected users to my iphone hotspot?

Please, I need to know who else is using my iphone hotspot connection...I really need to see active users when I use this feature. Can you help me?

Since no one can connect without knowing the password, and a password is required, should be pretty wasy to determine.

Problem of the iPad connection with the iPhone hotspot after upgrading to iOS 6

Hi guys, this is my problem: I've got an iPhone 4 and an iPad 2. With iOS 5.1.1, installed on both devices, I was able to surf the internet with my iPad through the iPhone hotspot.
I've just installed iOS6 on both devices...now iPad sees the iPhone wi-fi network but it can't connect!
Why?
Thanks for your support

I have a similar problem, using iPhone 4 and iPad 3. I can connect to the iPhone hotspot (iPhone show the blueish bar on top of its screen and says 1connection is active). So far so good, BUT, the iPad gets no symbol (the chain showing its linked) nor internet access. Sometimes the symbol comes but still no internet. By resetting the iPhones network settings I get it to work immidiately after, but after putting my iPad to sleep there will be the same issue over again. Please come up with a solution. Maybe I need to restore both devices? I don't like the idea though. It just works, huh?!?!?

Using a Laptop to connect to FTP via an iPhone hotspot

Hi guys,
When I try to connect to ftp in either Dreamweaver or FileZilla using my iphone hotspot I cannot connect.
I wonder if anyone knows (a) if this is possible and (b) how to go about it?
Many thanks
Jamie

Thank you for your reply,
I have attached a drawing of what I need to achieve. I have omitted the old ADSL links that are now obsolete. My concern is: Is it possible, and how can I configure, a VPN or any other method of encryption over an existing VLAN or VPN whilst keeping the existing networking configurations at each site. This is required to ensure that the IT department cannot access or view sensitive security data (e.g CCTV and access profiles) that is moving between the remote sites and Central Security. The other challenge is that the Cisco router will be installed in the remote sites one at a time over 3 months. During this time sites must be able to operate with or without the upgraded security depending upon what has been installed.

VPN Issue: Could not Negotiate a connection with the remote PPP server

Hello Folks,
I setup VPN on Windows Server 2003 Enterprise R2. I am successfully able to connect to VPN via laptop internally and externally. However, on my iPhone I am not able to connect and receiving the following error "Could not Negotiate a connection with the remote PPP server".
There doesnt seem to be a lot of documentation regarding this on Apple and or throughout the web.
Anyone resolve this issue?
Peace
Phil C.

I am not entirely sure my full setup. I had a friend help me set it up. Now for some reason when on WIFI on my own network I am able to connect to VPN ( I wasnt able to before), but when I switch to edge there is still no response for the PPP server. I even messed around with the PPP options still no response. Unfortunately I am not extremely server literate so my troubleshooting is limited. However it is now working via my own WIFI and will try it on another WIFI network tomorrow. I am wondering though if it connecting had to do with any updates from microsoft. Since this is a newly installed server 2003 it has been running updates. Some food for thought.
Peace
Phil

HT204023 iphone hotspot use wifi if connected or cellular only.

i have an iphone 5 ios v.6.0.2
if my iphone is connected to a wifi network while acting as a hotspot, does the iphone use the cellular network or the wifi to which it is connected to provide the internet access? i ask because my laptop has an issue where it can't connect to my home wifi network.

Clarification.
I setup the hotspot on my iphone, which has both cellular and WiFi network access.
My iPhone, I know will use WiFi for it's internet connections.
A device connects to my iPhone, using the hotspot.\
If you have other wifi available, why is your hotspot on and why are you using it?
I would hope that my iPhone would use the least expensive network, ie, WiFi,
It won't.
The hotspot is for connecting devices using wifi or blutooth to the internet using yoru wifi cell data.

Photosmart Plus B209a-m Won't connect to iPhone Hotspot

This is my first time to post. Hopefully, someone can help me. My friend is using a Verizon iPhone as a hotspot. He can connect 5 devices to the iPhone hotspot. When I attempted to connect his Photosmart Plus B209a-m to the hotspot, the laptop loses the wireless connection to the hotspot. The printer installation wizard gets to the point where it finds the SSID and I enter the security phrase. When the install process reaches about 40%, the his laptop loses the wireless connection.
The only way to reconnect the laptop to the iPhone is to disable the printer wireless radio or turn the printer off.
The hotspot uses WPA-PSK security. I noticed that when the wizard found the hotspot it showed WPA security not WPA-PSK.
Is there an update for the printer so that it can connect using WPA-PSK? I could not find one. Or is there something else that I need to do to make the printer connect to the iPhone hotspot.
I worked with Verizon support then with Apple support but since we can connect 2 laptops and a Smartphone to the hotspot, they say it is a printer issue.
Thanks.

Are you sure the hotspot uses WPA and not WPA2 (with or without the suffixes of PSK or AES is all the same)?
The printer will probably not connect to WPA2. Is there a way to change the iPhone encryption?
Actually, is there a way to remove the encryption altogether for testing purposes?
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

IPhone is connected to Macbook Hotspot but unable to actually surf

Although my iPhone is connected to the Wifi (Hotspot by Macbook) neither Safari nor Whatsapp work nor anything else. It only works if I delete the password of the Wifi, but than it is open for everyone. It used to work with a WPA2 password as well, but all of a sudden no matter how often I change the password or the channel, the iPhone won't be able to get a 'real' connection. Only if I take out the password completely. I've no idea why that is, because the iPhone works with any other Wifi and the Macbook created the Hotspot and it works if there's no password and it used to work with a password too... So I'm really confused what the reason could be.
Suggestions how to solve this problem are highly apreciated!
Thanks!

Yes, I tried that too and I also resetted my iPhone Network Settings and I tried about any combination of channel and password. It seems like I messed it up, because now it does not even work if I create an open hotspot. The iPhone has full conectivity (the sign in the top has 3 bars) but I cannot load any webpage or connect to Whatsapp. Any other Wifi still works though.
Thanks for the help

Can I connect my iPad and MacBook Pro both via an iPhone hotspot?

First, a little background. I have an aging MacBook Pro (~5 years old), and my netbook was smashed on the way to work last night. My cell phone (not an iPhone) crapped out a few weeks ago.
So my first priority is to replace my netbook with an iPad. When I can afford it, I also want to upgrade to a new MacBook Pro. I've also been thinking of getting an iPhone.
One thing that always confuses me is Internet connections. I currently connect my MacBook Pro to the Internet via Verizon and use T-Mobile for my cell phone.
I was surprised when an Apple salesman told me the iPhone has a "hotspot" that I can use to connect both an iPad and MacBook Pro to the Internet. But an Apple salesman at another store told me the hotspot will connect the iPad.
Can anyone offer some details? I've been browsing some of the other threads, but I still don't really understand what a hotspot is. Am I correct in understanding that as long as I have an iPhone with me, I can use it to connect my iPad to the Internet? Can I similarly use it to connect a MacBook Pro (either my 4-year-old+ model or a new model)?
What kind of connection speed does a hotspot offer? I do a lot of websurfing and web design. Would a hotspot connection be about as fast as my current connection via Verizon?
Also, is the hotspot feature available with either AT&T or Verizon?
Thanks.

Your hotspot will be billed by AT&T or Verizon based on your iPhone's model. Only the iPhone 4 from Verizon would allow a Verizon hotspot. Others have posted information revealing that the Verizon 3G connection is somewhat slower than the AT&T service. Also, the Verizon service suspends the use of hotspot when you take a phone call. The AT&T service continues during calling.
Selecting the hotspot feature under General> Settings> Personal Hotspot will change your data plan from your previous 250MB, 2GB, or unlimited amount to a new 4GB plan that includes tethering. AT&T charges me $45 instead of my Unlimited, but No Tethering Allowed, $30.
You can connect three devices that have WiFi. Verizon hotspots can connect five. Your speed should be about the same as the iPhone 4 browsing speed on 3G. If your phone is on WiFi, the devices need to connect separately to that WiFi, not to your hotspot. I would love to see a software update that allows my WiFi connection to be shared, so I don't have to manually connect the iPods that my boys use one at a time.

Question about personal hotspot. I know I can share GSM / 3G but I would like to know if my iPhone is connected to a wifi can I also share that wifi collection, through personal hotspot?

Question about personal hotspot. I know I can share GSM / 3G but I would like to know if my iPhone is connected to a wifi can I also share that wifi collection, through personal hotspot? And if so can it be through wifi or does it have to be Bluetooth or USB?
Sounds like an odd question but my phone will connect to BT Openzone so I want to share that with my iPad via personal hotspot. I could use 3G but then it comes off my data allowance and I don't want to have to buy a separate SIM for my iPad if I can avoid it. I can swap my sim from my phone, but that's a pain!
Thanks
Luke

No, unfortunately Personal Hotspot will only use your 3G plan.

My itunes account shuts down for no reason. It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and itunes. I have already reinstalled itunes and did a syste restore on my computer, firewall checked and virus scan done. Ideas??

My itunes account on windows xp shuts down for no reason. If even try to delete something from my library it shuts down. It wont recognize my iphone and there is an issue with network connectivity and I can't connect to the store. I have already reinstalled itunes and did a system restore on my computer, firewall has been checked, itunes is ok on firewall and virus scan done. Ideas??

Same problem. I can see the itunes store so not a problem with windows firewall. The account is active on my iphone so i know i am not locked out. I can connect the PC to my iphone so i know itunes is working ok. It is just logging into itunes on this pc which doesn't work. Only thing I can think of is that the email address I use for my apple id has been offline for a while and is working again now, I'm wondering whether this has been the case for others who are having this issue?

10.9.2 Update Issue (VPN) - Eclipse Perl debugger issues while connected to VPN

This post was initially added to this discussion: 10.9.2 Mavericks update issues
I have yet another issue related to 10.9.2 update - Eclipse Perl debugger issues while connected to VPN...
One of the big changes introduced by 10.9.2 update - are VPN changes (security fixes). Unfortunately, whatever these changes are - they "broke" Eclipse (OpenSource IDE) debugger. I am not sure if *all* programming languages (Eclipse plugins) are affected by this, but I know for sure that 'Epic' (Perl plugin) debugger *stopped working* while system is connected through VPN.
Here is the error that gets “popped-up” in the Eclipse:
Timed out while waiting for Perl debugger connection
… and here is exact exception stack that gets printed:
Unable to connect to remote host: 130.10.210.74:5000
Compilation failed in require.
at /Users/valeriy/workspace/ROBO-PROD-RA-685/src/lib/test/Val_test.pm line 0.
main::BEGIN() called at /Users/valeriy/workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.epic.debug/perl5db.pl line 0
eval {...} called at /Users/valeriy/workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.epic.debug/perl5db.pl line 0
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.
at /Users/valeriy/workspace/ROBO-PROD-RA-685/src/lib/test/Val_test.pm line 0.
Can't use an undefined value as a symbol reference at /Users/valeriy/workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.epic.debug/perl5db.pl line 7596.
END failed--call queue aborted.
at /Users/valeriy/workspace/ROBO-PROD-RA-685/src/lib/test/Val_test.pm line 0.
(of course IP address changes dynamically for each VPN connection session)…
I was able to prove that this issue is related to 10.9.2 update:
Issue *does not* exist under 10.9.1 (I had to revert back to 10.9.1 to get it working again)
No updates were performed around the same time 10.9.2 update occurred (I verified that using Software Update log)
No configuration changes were introduced around the same time
Reverting back to 10.9.1 using Time Machine (thanks god I had backup !!!) fixed the issue
Steps to reproduce this issue:
In Eclipse, try to use 'Epic' (Perl plugin) to debug any perl script while *not* connected through VPNEpic debugger works
Connect to VPN
Start Epic debugger to debug same script
Debugger *does not* start, and "Timed out while waiting for Perl debugger connection" error pop-up comes up after some time. At the same time, exception stack (listed above) is printed in Eclipse's console
I am programmer/software developer, I work remotely (telecommute) and thus have to rely on use of VPN to connect to company's intranet. Perl - is primary language used by my team, and we use Eclipse IDE with Epic plugin - heavily. Use of Epic's debugger - is a *very large* aspect of my work, I cannot work without it. So in essense, 10.9.2 has *entirely* disrupted my ability to work! It took me almost a week to get back to normal work environment, and I cannot afford to let it happen again... I need Apple's development team resolve this VPN related issue, as soon as possible! Because of this issue, I am *stuck* with 10.9.1 and can not upgrade my laptop to any other versions. In fact, I had to disable system updates - just so I do not run into this issue again... I contacted Apple's Tech Support on 02/28 with this issue (Ref: 582428110), asking to raise trouble ticket. Since then, I tried to follow-up on that issue, but do not get any information. Please advise on the status:
is there a trouble ticket to track this issue?
is there any progress?
what's the ETA for an update that fixes this problem?

Connect to Apple TV through iphone hotspot.

My inlaws have a property where they have no land line/Adsl. They use their hotspot to connect to the internet. I was going to try to set up ATV for them and wanted to know if the iphone hotspot would suffice. Or if I could connect the iphone to a router to use the internet from it on a network. I have tryed connection to my home network without internet and the ATV looses a lot of its functionality if it works at all.
Thanks

Realistically there's no harm in trying and just seeing how far you get.
The need for internet to play DRM protected matreial from a computer on teh LAN is a real annoyance - I tend to use a Mac Mini with HDMI out these days as it doesn't need that internet connection for pre-purchased material (it does for rentals to set the clock ticking).
I've used some convoluted methods to use Netflix at a holiday cottage without broadband (Mifi 3G device connected to a Macbook via USB, sharing the internet connection over wifi or ethernet (via mains networking powerline sockets)).

Iphone 6 connection issue

my new iphone wont connect to itunes. it keeps telling me that the device timed out. what can i do to correct this?

Hi, doyle e.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communites.
I understand that you are receiving device timed out alerts in iTunes. These are usually related to some type of USB conflict. Here is a troubleshooting article that I would go through for this specific issue.
