ISE 1.3 laptop wireless connection issue & apple devices

hi all,
i am configuring ISE 1.3 with wireless lan controller 2504 with 7.4.121 version.
i am using EAP-tls method of authentication . my certificate server everything working fine. i have one issue which is that i am trying to connect from my laptop i am getting the following error
"The server "ISE.example.local" presented a valid certificate issued by "DC-CA", but "DC-CA" is not configured as a valid trust anchor for this profile. Further, the server "ISE.example.local" is not configured as a valid NPS server to connect to for this profile"
but still i am able to connect and my profiling is working fine, but other laptops when i try to connect i am not getting any this kind of error . it directly says connection cannot connect.
is this problem of certificate on the ISE or the laptop issue , the laptops are not in domain.
even in the apple devices also when we put AD authentication it is accepting after that when we open the browser it is not going to the guest portal it saying some apple captiva portal some thing like that.
please let me know anybody faced this issue?? what is the cause and solution.

Dear, Freerk.
Thank you for your information.
I'd like to try captive bypass function then look at the traffic flow to understand very well, however, it looks like required reboot the controller.
ours is not able to do rebooting process so that, only the choice will be I must search testing result by my self... if you have a result from your lab, could you share with me?
Result message after enable captive bypassing configuration.
(Cisco Controller) config>network web-auth captive-bypass enable
Web-auth support for Captive-Bypass will be enabled.
You must reset system for this setting to take effect.

I am having wireless connectivity issues with my time capsule

Over the last 3 days my wireless devices have been having issues with connectivity.
Network setup:
Modem - Motorola SB5102 Cable Modem
1 TB Time Capsule 802.11n (second generation)
The devices are approximately 3 feet apart.
Wired Device:
Mac Pro (2008 build) running OSX 10.6.8, Airport Utility 5.6.1
Wireless Devices:
Playstation 3
Macbook Air
iPhone 5c
iPhone 4
I am having issues with internet connectivity. The wireless signal strength is fine as all devices can find the network. However when connected to the network accessing the internet on the Macbook Air, or either iPhone is slow and streaming services such as Netflix cannot connect. I have intermitant connectivity to the Playstation Network on the PS3.
I have wired both the Macbook Air and PS3 directly to the Time Capsule and have no issues, internet is accessible and streaming services are fine.
I have power cycled all the devices (Time Capsule, macbook, iphones, PS3, modem) to no result.
I am looking for any other suggestions that may help me with my wireless connectivity issue.

A Gen2 TC is probably on its last gasp.. and it is well overdue for replacement.
If you want to get more life out of it you normally need to repair or replace the internal power supply.. This is not done by apple or any of their repair centres.
Just do ebay search and you will find sellers with replacement supplies.
Otherwise to test, do a full factory reset..
I would also downgrade the firmware.. 7.5.2 will work just as well for you and has less bugs than 7.6.x firmware.
To downgrade hold down the option key when you select firmware version.
The Factory Reset universal
Unplug your TC/AE. Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on.. all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. The time is not important.. it is the front LED rapid flashing that indicates you are in factory mode.
Release reset.
If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have released reset at some point and try again.
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.

Satellite U940 PSU6VA - Wireless connectivity issues

_*My specifications:*_
*Model:* Toshiba Ultrabook (Satellite U940 PSU6VA-00S002)
*Operating System:* Windows 8.1 x64 (upgraded from Windows 8 x64)
*Wireless adapter:* Intel(R) Centrino(R) Wireless-N 2200
*Wireless adapter driver version:* 15.10.0.12 (which is the latest for my device)
I have had this Ultrabook since February 2013, and throughout that period I have always had wireless connectivity issues, even after performing a factory reset. My wireless icon fluctuates between three states:
* Internet access
* Limited (in which case I cannot connect to the internet or any device on the network)
* Not connected - connections are available (and if I try to make it connect to the network, it will fail)
Sometimes my computer would instantly reach the "Internet access" state upon startup, and would remain in that state. Other times, it would be "Limited" for several minutes after starting up my computer before it finally connected, and even then the connection would drop out every now and then. At the worst, it would remain either "Limited" or "Not connected" indefinitely, no matter how many times I reset my wireless adapter or restarted my computer.
Until recently, I had always thought that these issues occurred randomly. However, I recently noticed that I always have a perfect connection whenever there are no other computers connected wirelessly to my home router, and I always experience issues of varying degrees when there is at least one other computer (or even a smartphone) connected wirelessly to the router. If there is another computer connected to the router via an Ethernet cable, this does not cause any problems; it is only wireless connections that interfere with my computer.
It is only this computer that has these problems; the other computers in my house never experience these issues, no matter how many computers are online. Also, my computer does not only experience these issues with my home router; it has the same issues on my university's wireless network.
My question is, how can I fix this? Is this a known bug, or is my wireless adapter defective? I know I can connect using an Ethernet cable where possible (I never have problems with Ethernet connections), but this is not always possible at university.

I just checked the page you linked to, but it recommends that laptop users obtain their drivers from their OEM rather than from Intel.
I had already checked for driver updates through both Toshiba Service Station and Device Manager (and checked both again just now). Toshiba Service Station tells me that there are no updates available, and Device Manager tells me that "the driver software for your device is up to date".
Should I update to Intel's latest driver anyway? If so, should I also install the Windows 8.1 version of "Intel PROSet/Wireless Wifi Software"?

I have found the WLAN channel setting in Device Manager and I will test it when I get the chance. But how do I change the WLAN standard?

Can you use Iphone hotspot to wirelessly connect to apple TV

Can you use Iphone hotspot to wirelessly connect to apple TV. ie I have no router but am interested in playing music from phone to apple TV.

Yes in theory, though do check your phone contract small print and keep an eye on your data usage - in theory local data sent across the LAN created by the hotspot should not use 3G data but some carriers seem to treat it as internet data usage.

I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on my MacBook. Constantly dropping internet connection or message "error connecting to the network" comes up. No wireless connectivity issues with windows 7 laptop or iphone.

I have a MacBook with Snow Leopard 10.6.8. The last few weeks it has been constantly dropping internet connection, and one of these messages appear on the page: "Safari cannot open this page because the server where this page is located isn't responding" or "Safari cannot open this page because you are not connected to the internet" comes up. I will check Wifi and I am connected. No wifi connectivity issues with iphone or windows 7 laptop, this doesn't happen with either of those devices. I have unplugged and reset router, cleared cache, still happening. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

TC wireless connection issue

Hi all,
I'm a long time reader, first time poster.
I've recently had BT Infinity installed and purchased a Time Capsule which would provide backup for my Macbook but also replace the HH3 that inevitably everyone has forced upon them so the TC would effectively become my wireless router.
I followed the 'standard' AirPort utility PPPoE installation guide to get the TC set up, create a wireless network, etc. Green light came on the TC and all looked fine.
The range is poor (due to my house having solid brick walls throughout - I'm going to need to extend this, probably with an Airport Express) however the biggest issue are the speeds I'm getting. I have the following equipment:
MacBook
2 x Laptop
Smart TV
PS3
Apple TV (although I've not connected this up yet)
2 x iPhone 5
iPad
Now, the iPhone's and iPad work absolutely fine - run a speedtest and they're coming in at 50MB/s (I have a 70MB line). Everything else though is rubbish. I'm not sure what speed the TV is at but the laptops and MacBook are running around 3MB/s download max (even when sat next to the TC). I've tried setting the 2.4 and 5ghz channels manually within the utility but no joy.
I'm not the greatest when it comes to tech(!) but I can't understand why the phones and pad work seamlessly and everything else struggles. Any suggestions as to what the issue might be?
I'm inevitably going to need to extend the range as I say but don't want to do this until I sort this first.
While I've never asked a question before I have used info on here to fix things previously so hope you can help me out!
Thanks in adavance

Wireless connectivity issues with Macbook Pro and At&t service HELP!!!!!

I have three Computers two PC's and one Macbook Pro( the latest model).My desktop PC is used by ethernet, my girls laptop is used wirelessly and finally my MBP was being used wirelessly.
I started off with only the two PCs and my internet connection never had a problem and I was doing everything from: on the internet to downloading.
Before I bought my MBP I had also switched from internet and phone bundle to just internet from At&t service. So when I got my first MBP I notice that I was loosing wireless connection with both my girls pc laptop and my MBP so i thought it was because I had just switched service, though they send out a service technician and we came to a conclusion that it was the MBP. (I was loosing signal via wireless and ethernet). So we tried to see if both my girls laptop(wireless) and my PC desktop (ethernet) would run into the same issue which it did not.(MBP was turned off)
So I decided to go my nearest Apple store and let them know what was going on. So I told them what was going on and they said It must be the airport card, and they ended up changing it. When I get home I discover that not only I am having the same issue but other issues too. I went back they ran some diagnostic and they said it was defective and they gave me a new one few days later.
So in the mean time that I waited for my new one to arrive I used my PC desktop and my girl kept using her laptop and guess what no issue what so ever for one whole week. Now I receive my new MBP(they bumped the specs a little), went home set it up and still the same issue though I dont have the issue when Im using via ethernet. Just a view minutes ago I tried removing the ethernet and using the airport/wireless and within a few minutes I lost the signal.
I have the gateway 2WIRE model(2701HG-B) modem/router.
Is there something wrong? what do I have to do to make this work?

Hi Guys, I bough my Mac almost two years ago. All this time I have experienced the same issue. There are tons of discussions re this issue in the internet. Unfortunately, Apple has done nothing to fix it. I have tried a lot of different options, but they work no longer then 1-2 days. The official fix - does not exist so far. It is quit strange, isn't? I can share my experience: if you go to AirPort Utility - Manual Setup - Wireless and then change Channel, it could help you till the moment you restart your computer; next time you need to repeat it again. It takes 2 minutes. Not sure that it would work for you but you could give it a try. Well, not the best option. Anyway Apple must fix it asap! Hello Apple, do you hear us? Good luck.

BT Infinity - Wireless Connection Issues

I have had this product for over a year now, and I have to say it is amazing that I have lasted thislong without throwing the router out of the nearest window!!
Does anyone else experience such poor wireless connections??? i.e. up and down, up and down, up and down, all day long, any time of day, any day of the week. It is shockingly bad!!!
I've changed channels, I've paid for an engineer to check the connection point, even though it's exactly the same one, and in the same position that the engineer installed it.
I'm really at the end of my tether!
Anyone, care to offer any advice?
We are a family of 6, with many many gadgets, i.e. iPads, iphones, Xboxes, laptops, ipods, etc. are we being penalised for having too many wireless devices? Can the BT Infinity product only cope with a certain amount of wireless devices?
PLEASE HELP!!!

If you have tried all the wireless checks/changes ie moved the HH3 off Automatic onto a clear channel.
Inssider is a good free wireless scanner for windows, that can help identify a clear channel to move the HH3 to.
Inssider video HERE.
Then you may want to consider another route. I note in Ady wrote in msg #21 and 25 HERE.

Wireless connection issues

I have read extensively on this problem and it seems others have the same issue, however I will fully document the problem I have here and will also be sending this to apple as a bug report.
I have a Macbook Pro (3.1) running leopard 10.5.4 however these issues have occurred since 10.5.2 from memory, it may have been after an airport update but I wasn't using wireless around the time I updated. The router I have issues with is a Zyxel P660HW-T1, on which I have updated to the latest firmware (which isn't that new). Since an update I cannot connect to the router when using WPA encryption. This includes WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK, on any wireless channel. The console errors when connecting are:
Aug 10 12:33:20 Nicks-Mac kernel[0]: AirPort: Link Up on en1
Aug 10 12:33:27 Nicks-Mac airportd[347]: Error: Apple80211Associate() failed -6
Aug 10 12:33:27 Nicks-Mac SystemUIServer[135]: Error: airportd MIG failed = -6 ((null)) (port = 55559)
Aug 10 12:33:27 Nicks-Mac airportd[347]: Error: processcommanddict() failed
Aug 10 12:33:27 Nicks-Mac SystemUIServer[135]: Error joining BroW: Connection timeout (-6 timeout connecting)
When connecting, the menu bar icon appears connected for a short time and then disconnects and the dialog box reports 'Connection Timeout'. Since this problem occurs I have reformatted the computer, reset the PMU and PRAM, and successfully connected to many other wireless networks using encryption. I have tried connecting to the network using windows in boot camp, and it doesn't work there either so the issue is firmware related. There were no issues before the update.
I have successfully connected to the wireless network using many other devices, including windows and linux computers, and windows mobile devices. Interestingly an iPod Touch exhibits the same problem; it used to work and now doesn't.
While I know buying a new router or Zyxel releasing a firmware update would resolve the issue, I feel that because it works with standard PC devices it is apple that should be resolving this problem as they created it. This router was one of the most popular on the store I bought it from here in the UK, and so it should be a fairly big issue. If the problem has been created due to a security hole in the WPA protocol being plugged, or something similar to this, it is understandable. Official word from Apple is needed on this!

You won't get official word here; it's just users here.
I know, I wasn't hoping for official support or in fact any kind of help, I was posting this more as information for other users. I will be submitting it as a bug report in the hope it will be recognised officially. I don't think there is anything I can do that will resolve this.
As far as the connection goes, if it was truly the router at fault it wouldn't be Apple's problem to fix, as Apple codes their drivers to comply with recognized wireless standards and it isn't Apple's responsibility to write their code to accomodate routers that don't.
As I said it would be understandable if this was caused due to a bug fix in the protocol by apple and I would not expect a fix. That's the information I'm hoping for but doubt I will get. Having said this, think about it from the end users point of view. In terms of 'Just works', Mac 0 PC 1.
That having been said, you know from your experience connecting with other routers that it's not a blanket bug, so the next question would be what's different about your network that is causing these connection failures.
One thing to try is to try removing all known networks from your known networks in your Network preference pane, and add them back.
As I said, this is an issue with Apple devices, and seems to be a firmware and not a software issue. I have reformatted and tried connecting in windows, had the same problem with an iPod touch and a Macbook.

Self assigned ip and can't connect wirelessly on any apple device

Man oh man... this issue has been festering for almost an entire year now and I have not found a solution. Last August (2009) my macbook stopped wirelessly connecting to my ATT 2WIRE dsl modem saying it had a self assigned ip address. I bought the computer in July and could connect with no issues for about a month. Ever since then, I've been connected via ethernet with slow connection. At the same time, the 2 iPhones in our household also could not connect wirelessly. One G5 could connect wirelessly but was extremely weak and often dropped the signal.
I did tons of research and found zillions of other people with this issue and no resolution. I've tried every solution on macrumors, and apple discussions with no results... I've disabled firewall, renewed DHCP, tried DHCP manual (which then changes the status to say I'm connected, but nothing works in my browser), restarted, etc. At work, I can connect to our Linksys router wirelessly with no issues. When my friends come over, their macbooks and iPhones don't work either!
Originally I thought the issue was my modem so I ordered another one. Same issue. Just this week I was at my wits end and cancelled my service with ATT and switched to Clear. I acquired a Linksys router to connect to the Clear Modem and I'm STILL having this issue. The difference is now that my iPhone can connect wirelessly but my macbook still cannot. The router is a Linksys WRT51ab. My macbook pro is on version 10.5.8. I can only assume that some kind of update to airport is causing the problem. As of now, my IPv4 address is: 169.254.111.225
Please someone help me! I promise some kind of reward if you can help me fix this.

Based on the model number, your Linksys router is OLD.
I'd actually suspect that your router has been the problem.
You can download the full user manual here --> http://homedownloads.cisco.com/downloads/wrt51ab_ug.pdf
I don't know if you ever secured your wireless router or renamed it from the factory defaults.
If it your Linksys wireless router is not password secured, it's possible that someone else changed settings about the time things stopped connecting.
Regardless, you can completely reset the Linksys to the factory defaults by holding down the Reset button on the Linksys for more than 10 seconds.
Do that first.
Then see if things 'magically' start connecting again. I'm guessing the phones will connect, but the Mac still won't, because of the IP address in the current configuration.
If not, here's how to configure your Mac network settings.
On your Mac, in System Preferences, Internet and Network, Network,
Click on Location, Edit Location
Click the + sign to create a new location called '_test'
(The underscore before the name will put it at the top of your Locations list where it's easy to find)
Select Ethernet (wired)
First, we'll let DHCP try to set the address.
Click Apply.
Move the selection back to Ethernet, and watch the Status.
If it shows Connected and IP address appears after a few moments, at least the WIRED configuration is working.
Now IF the Wired configuration works, lets move on to the wireless configuration...
(If the Wired configuration is still not working, post back and we'll work through it.)
Still in System Preferences, Internet and Network, Network, with the _test location you just created...
Select the AirPort interface in the left column.
Turn AirPort On.
If no Network Name appears, click on the up/down button and select Join Other Network and select your Linksys router name.
Click 'Apply'.
Leave DHCP settings alone and watch the Status to see if it connects.
Let me know what happens!

P.S. I was thinking lately, why, after spending so much money, should I spend several days already, in agregate, trying to understand the issue and how it should be resolved? Have I not paid for not having such problems?

Here is a lot more:
http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/wirelessnetworking/topic4035.html
Highly interesting is the post of J.Exby which i reproduce here:
For months I've not been alone in holding to the notion that the airport client software on Mac OS X 10.4.x has been problematic and unstable in certain (noisy, crowded, channel overlapped) wireless environments. Issues littered around the Internet Mac forums include problems of networks appearing, then disappearing. This is a difficult problem to pin down, given the difficulty of reproducing the conditions that might cause wireless network dropouts.
A major symptom of the problem was seeing the constant messages of:
"An error occurred joining the AirPort network" (Try Again) (Cancel)
when attempting to connect to a wireless network, despite that network being seen, having correct security settings, etc.
Various temporary fixes/ideas floated around the mac community have included:
- reseting pram, nvram and PMU
- installing 10.4 from scratch, instead of 10.3 to 10.4 upgrade process
- Repairing permissions, run Combo updaters, etc
- putting system to sleep or reboot for temporary connection fix
- applying AirPort 2005-001 patch (or not)
- upgrading (or downgrading!) AirPort basestation firmware
- changing AirPort channels
- enabled (or disabling) Interference Robustness
- disabling Bluetooth and BT peripherals
- removing WEP/WPA passwords out of Keychain
- running Keychain First Aid on user/login keychains
- buying new AirPort extreme cards
- replacing AirPort base stations with other vendor hardware, etc.
With the stability of our Windows XP clients now (after driver updates) and the change from Apple base stations to Belkin Wireless Pre-N Router having no appreciable benefit for our Mac notebooks, the OS X AirPort client software suspicions only grew.
During troubleshooting I always have
Applications--->Utilities--->Console
and
iStumbler (96)
running, and I watch output as wireless scans are performed.
From the Terminal I also run:
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Apple80211.framework/Resources/airport -s
and usually see constant
AirPortScanner WirelessScan error -2013261821 airpInternalErr
messages.
After two days of testing (and fixing?) I am even more convinced there are bugs in the powerpc 10.4.x AirPort Extreme Framework!
This is what I found:
Environment at our office:
- wireless Network A (802.11g channel 1, WPA personal)
- wireless Network B (802.11b channel 6, WEP 40bit ascii)
- wireless Network C (802.11g channel 11, WPA personal)
(WAR-marching around our office exterior shows at least 12 outside wireless networks found at various signal strengths!)
Test systems used:
- iBook G4 (10.3.x and 10.4.5)
- Powerbook G4 (10.4.5)
- Intel iMac (10.4.5)
Primary symptom on iBook: networks not displaying long enough under the AirPort icon/menu (or Internet Connect) to connect to ANY network reliably! Perhaps connect to Network A intermittently, never even see Network C.
iStumbler showing some networks respond to poll, then immediately stagnate/disappear.
Primary symptom on Powerbook: stable connections to Network C most times, difficulty "switching" to Network B or A once moving closer to source. Usually stable "seeing" networks via AirPort menu icon, but still have occasional dropouts (due to fluctuating signal strength or interference?).
Primary symptom on Intel iMac: NO PROBLEMS! Can connect to (and steadily "see") all valid Networks A, B, C !
iStumbler constantly polls all available networks, with no dropouts.
Steps taken:
1. Wipe iBook hard drive, install 10.3 from dvd. AirPort signals unreliable.
1a. Perform all 10.3.x Software updates, Repair Permissions, reboot. AirPort still unreliable.
2. Reset PRAM, nvram, PMU. no improvements.
3. Reseat AirPort Extreme card, ensure antenna is firmly plugged in. AirPort still unreliable.
4. Wipe iBook, install 10.4.3 "fresh" from Full retail version DVD. AirPort still unreliable.
4a. Perform all 10.4.5 Software (combo) updates, Repair Permissions, reboot. AirPort still unreliable.
5. Hold down the Option key, and click on the AirPort icon in the menu bar.
select About AirPort...
pay particular attention to each system showing:
iBook: AirPort Framework 421.13.0
powerbook: AirPort Framework 421.13.0
intel iMac: AirPort Framework 426.1.0
Aha! A big difference with the AirPort Framework component version on the Intel iMac!
6. So, using the Terminal let's get this newer Apple80211.framework onto the iBook.
First on the intel iMac:
cd /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks
sudo tar cf ~/intelApple80211frame.tar Apple80211.framework
Copy this intelApple80211frame.tar file onto a USB thumb drive, CDR, iPod, scp, etc. to copy it onto the iBook (home directory).
7. With the tar file copied into the home area on the iBook, turn off iBook's AirPort via the menubar icon.
Now launch Terminal and:
mkdir backup-framework
cd /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks
sudo mv Apple80211.framework ~/backup-framework/
sudo tar xvpf ~/intelApple80211frame.tar
Launch Disk Utility, Repair Permissions on boot drive.
Reboot iBook.
8. Turn Airport on via the menubar icon.
iBook now has HUGE improvements in wireless connectivity! It can "see" all Networks A, B, C reliably and can connect to any of them when in range (having enough signal strength). Switching between networks is successful 90% of the time. Occasional message of:
"An error occurred joining the AirPort network (Try Again) (Cancel)"
usually works after clicking (Try Again), whereas before Try Again almost always failed.
I am unsure how this newer Apple80211.framework will affect future Software Updates on the iBook, but frankly I could care less now that it's able to access all of our wireless networks!
I am unsure if this is the magic-bullet solution for a majority of people, but I'm stunned that Apple appears to be providing new and improved Apple80211.framework software with the intel iMacs, but many of us have been fighting AirPort problems on PowerPC platforms for months!
Come on Apple, OS X 10.4.5 should contain the SAME software component versions for ALL CPU platforms!

My Mac won't allow wireless connection to Apple TV or my printer

Not sure what has happened, but I first thought that I had an issue with iTunes as it wouldn't wirlessly connect with any of my Apple devices - iPhone, iPad or Apple TV.
Now, my wireless printer won't connect with my iMac but does with my phone and iPad so now thinking the issue is with my iMac.
Any thoughts/ideas on how to fix?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

BTHomeHub - iPhone wireless connection issue

I recently downloaded Documents to Go, and discovered that the desktop sync application cannot sync with my iPhone. This seems to be caused by settings on my BTHomeHub wireless router - can anyone suggest what the problem is?
I have checked the following:
1 - the Remote app cannot connect to ITunes either, on my Mac or on my PC (With Bonjour recently installed)
2 - I've tried restoring and reinstalling applications etc;
3 - Remote app works if i simply use my Mac to create a network - suggests isolated to the Homehub
4 - I've tried the troubleshooting tips on the Dataviz site - eg, confirmed mac and iPhone are on same network.
Thanks

This appears to be a basic flaw of the iPhone, most likely purposely created by Apple to discourage file sharing between iPhone/iPod users, and continue to keep everyone coming to the iTunes store.
As a long-time user of Windows smartphones and PDAs, it's ridiculous how much Apple forces you to go through to get the simplest file-sharing tasks. I'm a recent purchaser of an iPhone, which I love for the things it does great, but file-sharing isn't one of them.
I have downloaded numerous apps from the Itunes app store which sound great (Documents2Go, mbPointer, eWallet, iPresenter, etc.)...but they either don't work (because they can't simultaneously pair the iPhone and your laptop on the same wireless connection, or do so randomly and inconsistently with absurdly complex chains of steps required).
Apple should be ashamed of themselves for frustrating the heck out of its iPhone users. $300 and $60/month is a lot to pay for torture. Yeah, I love certain iPhone functions...but wireless connections and file sharing totally stink.

MiFi 2200 wireless connection issue

I have similar issues as I have seen others post.
I can access the internet if I direct connect the mifi 2200 direct to my laptop.
The mifi 2200 does connect wirelessly but it has limited connectivity status and the internet is not accessible.
The other oddity is whether I have the mifi 2200 directly connected thru the USB cable or wireless I am unable to connect to the device's IP address.
I can't figure out if it is a device issue or configuration issue.
I am presently waiting for tech support to call me back. 1.5 hours last night with tech support was no help.
Techs suggestion: take your laptop and mifi 2200 to a Verizon store for help... uhh NO.
Any body got any other suggestions while I wait for my call back?

PDCLarry, Good know that I should not be able to get to the mifi's console if I have the device tethered.
But I still can't get to the console thru the wifi connection, still has limited connectivity status. The vz access sw that is on the mifi had a FW upgrade exe file. No update was done, newest version currently installed and yes it is 159
I tried the paperclip reset with tech support with no luck and have done it again, holding the reset down for 15+secs
I knew I should have just gone to the chill cook off instead of jacking with this thing all day.... Very annoying.
I'm having the same issue. I have two laptops ... one with Windows XP and the other with Windows 7. I tether the MiFi to my WIndows 7 box and it works. But when I make it a hotspot the Windows 7 box won't connect but the XP box will.
What I have noticed in the admin of the MiFI is that the Windows 7 box is connecting via ARP while XP connects via DHCP. So the IP address assigned to the Windows 7 box is outside of the MiFi's DHCP (192.168.1.24) range while the XP box is within the range (192.168.1.2).
So if you are using Vista or Windows 7 we need to find a way to change the wireless adapter from connecting via ARP to DHCP. Or maybe increase the DHCP range of the MiFi device to include the ARP range.
I'll test some more and send an update,

Weird Laptop Wireless Connection Problem

I have an HP DV6 6C16NR i7-2670QM laptop and am having a very annoying wireless internet connection problem.
I'll connect fine to my home network, but if I restart and try to connect again, it won't. The only way to fix it, is if I change the channel on my router. And then it'll repeat itself.
Any idea what's going on here? Must be some sort of proxy/memory type problem?
Using Netgear WNDR3700 with only 2.4ghz enabled. Lots of other wireless devices in our home connects without any issues at all. ie. cellphones (4), wireless alarm clock, IP cams (2) and a netbook.
Is this a hardware issue that I should warranty?
