Hello ecosh,
You can't use your BBM and email using Wi-fi, unless you have an active BlackBerry data plan. May I ask, does it work before?
Thanks.

IPad will not connect to my Torch 9850 hotspot

Before upgrading to iOS6, my iPad would connect hit and miss to my 9850 hotspot connection. Had to play with it a lot to get it to connect sometimes. Since upgrading to iOS6, my iPad has not connected to my 9850 hotspot since. My hotspot does appear to connect to all other devices (several laptops, couple of android phones, etc.). It just will not connect to my iPad. I went to the Apple Store and found that their iPad behaved the same. What was odd was that we did get some connections to my 9850 hotspot inside the Apple Store, but not outside the store, in the mall, in the car, etc.
This appears to be very strange. I would like to blame all this on the iPad, but I am wondering if I really can. Has anyone else had any problems connecting their 9850 hotspot to their iPad, especially since upgrading to iOS6?
For reference, I am running BB OS v7.1.1737. I have restored my iPad to factory and retested, and not long ago, I completely restored my 9850 using Desktop Software, after the over the air upgrade flaked out.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you all...

Try a reset on both devices. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons simultaneously, ignoring the red power off slider, until the Apple logo appears. Then release both buttons. This should not affect any content on the iPad, it is similar to rebooting your computer.

Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power to it for 30 seconds.

TS1398 why can my friend not connect to wi fi hotspots i.e. costa and mcdonalds

My friend has an Ipad 2 but is finding it difficult to contact to the internet, when out of her home, the I pad will connect to her home router, and my home router, but will not connect to places like costa etc, even when a code is available and input in to the ipad, has anyone any ideas.

Some of these won't apply.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

My iPhone safair says it cannot open because it is not connected to the internet. What do I do? I do not believe I changed any settings. I have turned the phone off but this did not work.

Safari cannot open because the iPhone is not connected to internet. I do not believe I have changed any settings. I have turned off the phone and then on, but this did not work. Help?

For Safari to work, you need either Wi-Fi or cellular data.
Are you connected to a Wi-Fi hotspot?
If not is Settings > Mobile/Cellular > Mobile/Cellular Data: ON

IPad does not find iphone hotspot

I have iPhone 4S and an iPad2 WiFi both running iOS5.1
I use the iPhone hotspot function to get the iPad on the internett when not at home. This workes great, I had to type inn the WiFi password the first time i connected the iPad, later the iPad connects without having to type the password.
Since iOS 5.1 the iPad sometimes have problems finding the iPhone hotspot. I turn on the "shared internet" function of the iPhone, open the smartcover on the iPad, but it does not connect (the two attached rings does not appear). If I go to Settings>WiFi on the iPad, the iPhone WiFi hotspot does not show up, the iPad just keeps searching. Then after a little while, the iPad suddently connect, ususally after I open Safari or Mail or something on the iPad. If I then close the smartcover, and leave the iPhone hotspot on, reopen the iPad smart cover, again the iPad does not seem to find the WiFi hotspot. I have to turn the hotspot function off/on on the iPhone, and then after a little while it works. When first connected,everything works OK.
Is this a problem with iOS 5.1?

Just going to the hotspot screen on the iPhone puts it in host mode where it's easy for the iPad to find it.
You lose some speed due to bandwidth bottleneck of Bluetooth, but I found bluetooth tethering had fewer headaches and was more persistent.
