IPhone wired internet connection

I would like to use the internet on my iPhone at work, but wifi is not allowed and cellular coverage is almost non-existent.
Is there any way to connect my iPhone to the internet via my wired LAN connection?
Or to set up a Bluetooth connection between my iPhone and my LAN?

Nice idea - these petacell devices coming onto the market require the phones to be registered on the station to stop people leeching off your broadband connection, so you could find a few people who would contribute to the cost of the device and share the cost and benefit.
The only place I have seen full commercial versions is on Vodafone in the UK - called Vodafone Sure Signal.

How do i use my iMac and the macs wired internet connection to share the internet with my iPod and iPhone

How do i use my iMac and the macs wired internet connection to share the internet with my iPod and iPhone. For 6months I had set up a network that shared the internet through bluetooth to my iPod 5th gen but i messed it up when i tried to add my iPhone 5s and i can't remember how to do it.

The following has instructions: OS X Mavericks: Share your Internet connection

Problem connecting my macbook pro to a wired internet connection via ethernet cable adapter

I am having a problem connecting my macbook to a wired internet connection in an area in my workplace where there is no wifi. The macbook works fine on the same internet connection via wifi in other parts but when I add it as a wired connection it doesn't show any connection. I have turned off wifi to make sure that it is not trying to pick up a poor connection but I still can't get this to work. I think I am trying to set up the connection properly but can't be completely sure. Any help would be appreciated.

Open System Preferences>Network and make sure Ethernet is selected. If it is, open Advanced Settings (at the bottom of the Network window). Click on the TCP/IP tab. Configure IPv4 should be set to "Using DHCP".
Configure IPv6 should be set to "Automatically". When those are set click the "Renew DHCP Lease" button

I want to use Airport Express in my hotel room using the wired internet connection, but I don't carry a computer, just my iPad. Is that possible?

I want to use AirPort Express when I am traveling. I would like to use a wired internet connection in a hotel room to create a wireless connection. However, I do not normally carry my laptop, just my iPad. Is it possible to do this?

You will have to pre-configure the Express using AirPort Utility on your computer before you leave on the trip. The Express will store and remember the settings.
You might want to check with the hotel in advance to make sure that they have Ethernet ports available. Most hotels have switched to wireless and the others are not far behind.

Can AirPort express be used for AirPlay with my home stereo, and to give my Xbox 360 a WIRED internet connection via ethernet, simultaneously?

I am considering buying an airport but I am not sure if it will work how I would like it to. I need it for two things. The first would be to use for AirPlay with my home stereo. The second would be to use as a way to give my Xbox 360 a WIRED internet connection via the ethernet port. I would like to do these things simultaneously, rather than constantly changing the configuration and being limited to a single function each time I do so.
Thanks!

The 802.11n AirPort Express Base Station (AXn) can be configured as a wireless Ethernet bridge. In this configuration, it would join an existing wireless network and its Ethernet port would be enabled for a wired client, like your Xbox 360. This configuration would also support AirPlay simultaneously.

Laptop to internet ok. Iphone to internet "connection to server failed"

Laptop to internet ok. Iphone to internet "connection to internet failed" can someone help me fix this?

I think bluetooth should be upgraded to allow to use
iPhone to connect to the Internet with any laptop
(i.e. Powerbooks or MacBooks), this is the only
feature I am really missing with the iPhone! Do you
think will be any software upgrade or third party
software allowing to do that? Thanks for sharing.
Wireless access from the iPhone is $20 a month. AT&T's unlimited access for laptops is $80 a month, and for other devices (PDAs, Blackberry, etc; the TOS forbids you to use the PDA as a wireless modem for a laptop) is $50 a month. Thus, if the iPhone COULD be used as a modem it would undercut all of the other wireless data services.
Anyway, you wouldn't really want wireless laptop access over EDGE; believe me, I've tried it. If you really need wireless access get a 3G aircard with a separate data plan. It's really worth the price to have DSL speeds over the cellular network.

Maps needs wifi on even when it a wired internet connection

Show location in maps must have wifi on, seems silly on iMac with wired internet connection. Also less secure

"since an Ethernet link could be up to 1000' from its point of connection to an ISP"
That's not the half of it. The *Ethernet* link is only to your cable modem or home network switch or what-have-you, and since you can carry your hardware anywhere on the planet, the fact that OSX could find out the Ethernet MAC address of other devices on the network is meaningless. The only thing remotely useful it can get from a wired connection is the TCP/IP address that your home system is presenting to the rest of the Internet, and, at best, that would just indicate where your ISP's central wiring closet is. In my particular case, packets go to my DSL modem, switching over from TCP/IP on Ethernet to ATM via ADSL, and stay as ATM packets until they get to CenturyLink's regional center, which is about 150 miles away from my house. My IP address (like most peoples') is assigned from a pool of addresses via DHCP, which means that the customer (and thus physical location) associated with any particular IP address can change week to week or even day to day.

Tracking iPhone without internet connection..

Is it actually possible to track iPhone without internet connection? I mean, the iPhone which I am tracking has no internet connection... (Example, has been lost in a foreign country and the roaming data is not ON) Anyone has an idea how to do the tracking?

Short answer: no, it's not possible. Longer answer: The cellular carriers could potentially track the phone if it's on. However, they'd most likely only give that information to law enforcement with a proper subpoena.

Airport Extreme joining a network and sharing wired internet connections

Hi everyone,
My new ISP installed their modem/wifi router (Sagemcom) in my home two months ago. Since I share HDDs over the wifi network, I installed my airport extreme near the modem/wifi router and used it to "extend the network", and it worked fine until recently. It stopped working suddently with the yellow light flashing. When I tried to reconfigure it, I always got errors, needing to reset it even to be able to see it again in Airport utility. Honestly, I have absolutely no idea why it stopped working. I tried connecting the Airport Extreme with an ethernet wire to the modem with the same result. So, I decided to move the airport extreme in my living room and use it to share the internet connection with my PS3, slingbox and Apple TV, telling myself that a partly wired connection would improve the signal (since I also had an Airport Express in the living room extending the network before everything stopped working). Now, everything works; the green light is on, HDDs are available on the wifi network, I can only connect to the Sagemcom routeur but, meh, what do you want, BUT, my slingbox, Apple TV and PS3 can't connect to the airport extreme through a wired connection.
Two questions:
1- Is it possible to share a wired internet connection with my Slingbox, PS3 and Apple TV from an Airport Extreme that has joined the network? If yes, what do I need to do to make it work?
2- Any idea why my first setup stopped working?
Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot,
Frank

1- Is it possible to share a wired internet connection with my Slingbox, PS3 and Apple TV from an Airport Extreme that has joined the network? If yes, what do I need to do to make it work?
Unfortunately, the Ethernet ports are not enabled when the AirPort Extreme is configured to "join" a wireless network.
Ironically, the less expensive AirPort Express does have the ability to "join" a wireless network and deliver an Ethernet signal at the port(s).
2- Any idea why my first setup stopped working?
None that you probably have not already thought about. The most commons cause is a sudden power outage, or even quick power "blip" can sometimes result in the Extreme to losing some of its configuration settings. Otherwise, gremlins are hard to catch.

IPhone 6 internet connection is horrible.

I got my iPhone 6 with iOS 8 yesterday but I am really disappointed. I feel like I am using the first iPhone. Internet connection both WiFi and Cellular is so poor. Although I have the fast WiFi network iPhone 6 is very slow when it try to open page using Safari or apps. I have company iPhone 5 and it is much faster than the new phone. Please help? Anyone has any issue like me

Connecting iPod touch to the Internet via a Mac with a wired Internet connection

I have a Mac Mini which is connected to the Internet using a wired Ethernet connection. I've just bought an iPod touch, but the iPod can't connect to the Internet using the wi-fi network I've created on the Mac Mini, although it knows that the network exists. Any ideas?

What happens when you try to connect to the network? Error message?

Restore iPhone without internet connection

Hello,
I have an iPhone 5s for a while now. I changed my passcode and rebooted my iPhone. After the reboot, I realized I forgot the passcode. I tried to unlock it with my fingerprint but it wouldn't allow me to due to it being right after restart. I tried to restore it, yet it didn't allow me due to find my iPhone being on. I went on iCloud to turn off find my iPhone but my iPhone has no internet connection as simcard is locked and even though wifi is on, it doesn't connect. How should I get out of this?
Thank you.

You need to put the phone into recovery mode and restore it using a computer with iTunes that has an Internet connection.

IPhone 5c internet connection

I Just bought an iPhone 5c yesterday. The internet connection is good but when I tried to go to the app store and itune store apps it's telling me that it won't open because I'm not connected to the Internet. I then check the safari and Its working well.

Hi Joel_R,
Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it seems like the iOS device can't connect to iTunes store. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.
Can't connect to the iTunes Store - Apple Support
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update(iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Mario

Wired Internet connection drops since 10.5.7

Since installing the 10.5.7 update I've had trouble with my Internet connection dropping while I'm using it. I have a wired connection and have checked the cables and the router port and there doesn't seem to be a physical problem. I'll be browsing the Internet and without warning it will suddenly stop working. A minute or two later it will have recovered. This happens every few minutes and it's very aggravating.
I do not use a wireless connection and have turned off Airport.
When the connection drops, I am unable to ping the router. If I run ifconfig I see it has a 169.254.x.x address. Once the system recovers, I can once again ping the router and the IP number is what the router assigns.
I ran cat /var/log/system.log and here is an excerpt:

I don't know if the problem is related to an incompatibility with VMware Fusion or not. I have both Windows and Linux virtual machines on this Mac. I'm not actively using VMware when I have the connectivity problem.

I posted this on an other topic last night
Hi,
New to this forum. Landed here because of airport issues after 10.5.7. update.
Airport could not connect to my network, but it detected other networks.
I tried some steps suggested in this thread but it didn't work. Then I looked into my router and disabled the "hide accespoint" option. That worked. Airport connected immidiatly. I restarted and still had connection. I then enabled the "hide accespoint" option, restarted, had to log in manualy ("connect to other network"), gave my networkname and password and until now everything works okay.
Maybe the 10.5.7. update chanched something in the airport//router setting/visability.
Giel.
