Iphone4 Hotspot trouble with WIFI

When I turn on my iphone4 hotspot to broadcast WIFI I have no trouble connecting my laptop to the WIFI signal and everything works great. After about maybe 15 minutes or so, my laptop loses the connection and no longer "sees" the WIFI (phone and laptop sitting 3 ft away). When I look at the phone it still says "Personal Hotspot - 1 Connection" but the phone is no longer sending the WIFI signal. Anyone else having this trouble? I tried it again and again but see the same result.

Hello Othello1 and welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
Sorry to hear you are having Wi-Fi® issues with your BlackBerry® Curve™ 8520 smartphone.
Have you tried rebooting your router and modem? If you connect to another Wi-Fi network does this same thing happen?
Have a look at KB13299 "Use the Wi-Fi Diagnostics tool" when these apps seem to stop running.
Let me know how you make out.

    Having trouble with wifi since downloading ios7

    I have had this problem on my iPad and iPhone 5 since the update in September. I called apple support numerous times, did all the troubleshooting, and went to the apple store and had both devices replaced under warranty. Nothing fixed the problem.
    Then as a last ditch effort I called my internet service provider. Turns out that the ios7 doesn't seem to work on a wpa2 network and needs to be changed to a wep network. The tech did this over the phone and now both devices work normally connecting to my wifi! I am still nervous I'm going to run into more issues but so far so good.

  • Trouble with wifi after IOS 6 upgrade

    I have an iPhone 4 and successfully installed iOS 6 today.  I am having trouble getting on my home wifi.  When asked to join my network, I click on it and type in my password.  Shortly after typing in my correct password an apple.com login page loads from the bottom of the iPhone but says "hmm, the page you're looking for cant be found".  The only option I have is to push cancel and then it ends my wifi connection with my own home network.  Help please.

  • WiFi - no online apps work in hotspots even with wifi symbol on

    Hi. I can connect and use my home wifi with online apps but at hotspots, even with open networks, I get the wifi on symbol but nothing loads in any online app (incl. safari). Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    1, not all hotspots are really free.
    2, Most require you to accept terms and conditions (thus always try safari first).
    If safari doesn't bring you to a terms and conditions page when you try to go somewhere then good chance the spot really isn't free for all.
    Once you find a spot that does allow you to accept terms (or Safari just works) then apps will work with the WiFi...you just need to always check safari first.

  • Having troubles with WIFI.

    Dear All
    Anybody a idea how to solve the following problem. Since upgrade to IOS 6 having problems with WIFI tried everything reset network settings changed the Itunes password, then all of a suden this Saturday WIFI was on line again, I thought yes all problems solved.

    Kind Regards
    Jurgen

    Was the "full" restore a restoe to factory defaults/new iPod?

  • Downloaded new OS and having trouble with wifi, bluetooth Facebook and Skype performanc​e

    Dowloaded 10.2.1.537
    When I first loaded this it had a lot of trouble finding my Wifi again and would disengage.  Problem went away after a few hours but it recurred this am.  Also affected Facebook.
    Skype is loading more slowly and jumps to a black screen for 10-20 seconds.  Then it will load and function but only for a few seconds to a minute and then shuts off completely. 
    Launching Skype also resultd in my bluetooth headset being disengaged sometimes.
    Reinstalled Skype to see if that fixed anything. 
    Tried turning off bluetooth to see if that fixed the skype problem - nope still disengaged.
    Cycled my router and cable and still no fix...
    Running Z30
    Would love to get a fix on this.

    Hello,
    Given all of your issues, I'd guess that something did not go well with the update, and a clean reload would be in order. You accomplish that either through the LINK software or by obtaining an AutoLoader.
    Good luck!

  • I'm having trouble with WiFi on my Blackberry Curve 8520?

    I am currently using a Blackberry 8520 Curve, and I am using it without a data plan. So, I use internet by using WiFi.
    However, I have found that when I am using internet it will often display 'Unable to find the requested server'. The browser is set to Hotspot, and connections on other devices such as laptop work fine.
    The only way I can get internet working again is to go to 'Manage Connections', and switch WiFi off and then back on again. Only then does it start working. If I leave WiFi switched on, the connection eventually times out.
    Has anyone else had this problem and how can it be fixed?

    Ok, you did.
    Then try this, delete the WiFi profile for you router, do a simple reboot (With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot) and then set up the router again.
    Give it a few days and see how it worksl

  • Troubles with WiFi setup

    Hi there, I am new in the Arch-world, and I am having some troubles in installing this OS.
    I have read every documentation file I found in the web, unfortunately I can't connect the pc to my wifi network.
    First, I used LiLi to create a bootable iso on my IoMega HD.
    I followed (mainly, but not only because I read other resources on the web) the Wiki wireless setup guide, but with no success.
    I have a broadcom wifi card (BCM4313) and according to Ubuntu doc I should not have any troubles.
    Using the "wifi-menu" command, I get this error message:
    Job for netctl@wlp10s0\x2dTNCAPD1D28F.service failed. See 'systemctl status netctl@wlps0\x2dTNCAPD1D28F.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.
    Thank you very much!

    if those modules aren't loaded then you can proceed to the next steps. For broadcom-wl to work, the other modules (brcmsmac) have to be removed. If you install broadcom-wl from the aur, it will create a file which automatically blackulists those modules. You then have to make sure you load wl, and it's deps (may be loaded automatically) at boot.
    Also, keep in mind that the interface names might be different from the brcmsmac names under the wl module. Always check iwconfig/ip link. The numbers that appear in front of your prompt are the return values from the previous operation, I believe.
    what modules do you have loaded right now? You can check with lsmod.
    When I write # modprobe wl, I get another error message:

  • Publishing trouble with wifi

    I am having trouble publishing my web to an FTP server using my wifi connection. It did work once but now will not through my wifi connection. I hooked up to the ethernet port of the wifi router and it published quickly. Is there a setting to change on sharing or on the firewall to allow the wifi publishing?

    The Nokia Xpress browser (and all other apps) work here with Mobile Data = Off in my Nokia 210 Firmware V 06.09. Sounds like your Nokia has choosen the wrong configuration settings. Please, go to
    Nokia 210 » Menu » Settings » Configuration » Personal » (Options ») Add » not Web but Access-Point » Access-Point Settings » Bearer Settings » Mobile-Data Access-Point » payandgo
    Nokia 210 » Menu » Settings » Configuration » Personal » (Options ») Add » not Access-Point but this time Web (just create it, nothing to change)
    Nokia 210 » Menu » Settings » Configuration » Activate » (SIM1 ») Web = My web and Access-Point = My access-point
    This should enable Wi-Fi for HTTP traffic (and HTTPs traffic). Nokia Xpress uses HTTPs as connection mehtod. Because of that, the Nokia Xpress browser should use Wi-Fi as (first) preferred connection now. And because of that, the Mobile-Data settings should not matter anymore, except when you are on the go (leaving your home and your Wi-Fi). Did that help?

  • Trouble with wifi after upgrade to IOS 8

    After upgrading my iPad 3 to Ios 8 yesterday I am having trouble of connecting to the internet using the wireless wifi modem on MacBook Pro. The Wifi appears to connect  to the iPad but I get a message '"MacBook Pro" is Not Connected to the Internet" when I start the process of connecting to my MacBook. I join anyway but I don't see the WiFi icon on top of my iPad even though I have a tick next to the connection on the settings page. Does anyone have any idea how I get the Wifi working again?

    My problem turned out to be that the Sharing app decided to make the newly discovered Thunderbolt Bridge the default device to be used for sharing rather than my USB modem. Changing back to the original setting and everything is working again.

  • Recent troubles with WiFi.

    Hello everyone, recently I have been having numerous issues with my WiFi connection. I am only noticing the issue when I am attempting to download a file via Firefox or using wget. What will happen is, during the middle of downloading the file my internet will suddenly quit working. I checked into the dmesg log and noticed a huge flood of " iwlwifi 5:00.0: fail to flush all tx fifo queues". I'm not entirely sure what this means but the only way to fix the issue is to reboot my entire system and cross my fingers hoping it wont happen again when I attempt to download something.
    Can anyone provide a little bit of insight into the issue? Has anyone else had similar problems? I have attempted researching the issue on google but I have had no luck finding good results. If anyone needs a little more info, please let me know I will be more than helpful to assist those who are willing to help with my issue. Thanks in advance!
    My network card is (taken from lspci): Network controller: Intel Corporation Ultimate N WiFi Link 5300
    (I did not have to install any special drivers for this, it was working automatically.)
    EDIT: Here is a picture of my log output from KSystemLog. http://imageshack.us/a/img805/3858/errorui.png

    No idea how to solve it, but I think rebooting is unnecessary.
    Thanks for the reply WonderWoofy.  I have been able to unload the module's and reload them and this does appear to work as a temporary fix to the issue instead of completely rebooting! Although, I am still having problems.
    I can have the WiFi work fine with normal web browsing and low latency activities, but the moment I start downloading a file (multiple files at once cause the issues to happen even faster) the iwlwifi module spits out a long dmesg log of:   "iwlwifi 0000:05:00.0: fail to flush all tx fifo queues".
    I am still looking into the issue and I want to see if I'm able to debug the module my self. Although, for now I have an alias script that will unload and reload the failed modules instead, just for a temporary fix. Again, if anyone needs more info please let me know I'll be happy to share! Thanks for the help!

  • Trouble with wifi and swtiching to 4g networks

    I having problems with iphone 5 and network issues. While on wi-fi is constantly turning on adn off adn it is frustating.. when not in wi-fi.. it basically does not do nothing.... I dont get to see the 4G

    The dns (domain name server) address is found by choosing settings -> wifi -> your network.
    Then tap on the blue circle with the arrow on the right side.
    Scroll down until you find router and dns.
    If the dns is blank or showing the same as your router address, this could be causing the problem.
    What you could do is contact your isp and ask them what there dns address should be, then enter that into the iphone and see if it works.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why have i trouble with wifi internet on my iphone 4 and sometimes on my ipad 3?

    Internet conection are suddenly for some days now unvaivable. I have internets to choose from in the internetlist, but the iphone cant connect. And now my ipad also starting to do the same thing nd i hve to restart it. Im uing the 6.0.1 IOS. Iphone only show the E.

    Just because some devices (particularly devices with constant power) continue to work does not mean your WiFi router is working properly. Powered devices almost never request new IP addresses via DHCP which may be where your problem lies.
    Try restarting your router to see if that helps (this will restart the router DHCP deamon which may have crashed or hung).
    To rule out iPhone problems test it on other networks. If it can't connect there then it may have a hardware problem.
    Since in your original post you stated that you have been having problems with two mobile devices this makes your router very suspect.

  • 4s trouble with wifi. it connects however is very slow then switches back to 3g

    If anyone out there could help I would appreciate it!
    iphone 4s brought as a replacement form Apple on the 6 September  2013 has developed an issue!
    I can connect to my home BT HomeSpot however its so slow and will then go back to 3g, so frustrating!  I have a BT Booster and the single is strong, we have no problem with any of our other devices.
    i've been to the Apple store twice now and they've said there is nothing wrong with the device as it works on there wifi!
    Can anyone help?

    I have brought the Virgin Media super hub back to the manufacturing original configuration then changed the user name and password. Only my iphone was connected. Then I've switched to 5 Ghz = 30Mbpm BANG!; went back to 2.4Ghz=dead. Now is getting worst. At the beginning it was picking at least 2Mbpm. Then 1. Then 0.something. Now it doesn't even connect. I'm pretty sure the iphone 5 must have 2 antennas and the one that uses 2.4Ghz is just gone.
    Any advice?
