"No Internet Access" on connected device with mobile hotspot

I've been on Verizon for 2 weeks.  Note II on a Family Share Plan with lots of data.  Using the built-in Verizon Mobile Hotspot application.  Connecting from my work laptop, which is Windows 7.
Set it up and everything worked fine for a week and a half.  I had no problems connecting or accessing the internet from my laptop.  It worked fine Monday morning.  Monday afternoon my laptop started giving me the warning message "No Internet Access" when connecting to the phone's hotspot.  I'm in a 4g area where the hotspot has worked previously.  I've tried several times in several different 4g locations as time allowed over the last 2 days, and I have not been able to get to the internet on my connected laptop again.
While connected to the mobile hotspot I ran Windows troubleshooter and it tells me that there is no DHCP server available, and that the default gateway for this network is unreachable.  My laptop has no problems reaching the internet via the wireless network at work or at home.  The laptop connects to both of those wireless networks every day (both before and since this problem appeared.)
I have rebooted both the phone and the laptop, with no change in the problem results.  I renamed the hotspot, and connected to the "new" hotspot from my laptop, with no change in the problem results.  I have tried running "ipconfig /renew" from my laptop while connected, and that is when it tells me that it cannot find a DHCP server for this network.
What broke?  How can I fix it?
I'm still in the 100% refund return period on my contract and phones (for another day or so.)  This is an absolute deal-killer.  Hotspot on my phone is the single reason why I switched networks.
* Revised 2/28:
This morning I turned on the mobile hotspot feature on my wife's Galaxy S3 (on the same Verizon Family Share Plan.)  Then I connected to it from my laptop.  When it connected it said "limited internet access" for about 30 seconds, and then that warning went away and I had full access.  I surfed for a moment to confirm, and all was working.  I turned off the GS3 hotspot and turned on the hotspot on my Note II.  When I connected to the Note II's hotspot from my laptop I still had no internet access.  I left it for 3-4 minutes, and it never switched on.  I tried surfing and got only error messages in my browser.
All of this was while sitting at my desk.  So I believe I have ruled out the laptop as a cause for this problem. 
Thanks in advance,
Randy

After I posted the above in February I talked to Verizon support.  They could not resolve the problem.  They replaced the phone, and the new phone has worked for months.  My work schedule changed a bit, and so I started using the hotspot less often.
Last week I noticed that after I connected my laptop I had a longer delay before it would change from "No Internet Access" to giving me access.  Yesterday morning it was so slow that I got the command prompt up on my laptop and determined that from the laptop's perspective the problem was that there was no DHCP server available through the hotspot network.  That morning it did eventually find the DHCP server and issue my laptop an IP address, and let me connect. 
Yesterday afternoon the DHCP server never appeared, and I was not able to connect to the internet.  Same thing this morning.  I rebooted both the phone and the laptop.  No change.  The laptop connects to other wireless networks just fine, still.  This worked for months.  Why did it slow down connecting and then stop?  I'm guessing there must be some sort of buffer that has filled up.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

  • [Desktop][Connect] Control Spotify Connect Devices With Desktop App

    Recently, Spotify Connect enabled controlling the desktop app with a mobile device, but this is not complete!
    Allow the controlling of Spotify Connect devices with the Destop App. For example I can control a mobile device from my PC, or I can control the PlayStation app from my PC. 
    Right now I run a virtual machine with a virtual tablet to run the Spotify Mobile app to use Spotify Connect to control devices from my PC, when I should be able to use the desktop app in the first place.

    Updated: 2015-06-30Hello!
    This should already work - as a matter of fact I'm just controling my smartphone via my Desktop atm.
    Could you please tell us what devices you're using and which Spotify versions you've got installed on there? Also are you on the same network on both devices?

  • Does ePrint work with mobile hotspot service?

    I have a relatively new HP Officejet Pro 8500a E-All-In-One printer. I use the printer with a USB connection to my laptop, but also with a WiFi connection to my tablet through the mobile hotspot service of my HTC Thunderbolt phone. Until recently, I used this service with an iPad, which worked fine using AirPrint. One thing I noticed early on was that while the printer was seen by the other devices connected to my mobile hotspot, the printer was unable to set up the ePrint service, always giving me the error that it was unable to find an internet connection. All of my other devices are connected to the internet via the hotspot with no special settings created or used. Now that I've switched to using an Android 3.0 tablet, I need to get the ePrint feature working in order to print from my tablet--but I just keep getting the same error: "The Printer was unable to connect to the server. You can connect the printer to the internet through a proxy server..." Am I doing something wrong? The printer is set up using the WiFi signal from the mobile hotspot, and other devices on the hotspot can see the printer...
    Thanks,
    Did

    Hey technobabble1! I've never tried to set this up personally but I think it would work. Try viewing the ePrint troubleshooting information found here and see if it helps at all. If not, let me know what happened and I will try to find out more information for you.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

    Hi nkarthikeyan ,
    You're right, in the behind configuration, there aren't any NAT configured for the simple reason which's Firewall is on production on another site and users must to connect to our Intranet to working properly so until I found a solution, I do some tests only with one desktop located on site...
    I tried to add this command on my configuration but when I do it, I lost connection with computer of my site of ZAG ...
    ASA5505-ZAG(config)# nat (inside,outside) source dynamic any interface
    Also, I tried this configuration but without success also :/
    for no-nat

    And to finish my questions, can you explain me this point please : 
    Also you need to place your real ip address in interface ACL's instead of NATed ip address...
    Thanks for your support !
    I really appreciate it !

  • No internet access for vlan devices

    Hey folks, 
    I'm new to cisco and have only recently started study for my ccna. In preperation for this i've gotten my hands on a cisco emi 3550-48 port switch so i can play and test some scenario's. 
    Now, I've setup a couple of vlans (200,201 and 202) and i've assigned them to fa0/3, 0/5 a0/7 respectively. i suppose it's irrelevant which ports are assign, they are just the ports i've assigned while typing this. 
    I know the cisco forums are full of people saying the intervlan routing isnt working and it just turns out to be the static route on the router in the end but i have set all that up and i can not get internet access on my vlan networks. The wierd thing is the switch itself can ping the internet no problem. 
    Here is my setup : 
    I've assigned ip addresses as follows :
    vlan 200 - 10.10.200.254/24
    vlan 201 - 10.10.201.254/24
    vlan 202 - 10.10.202.254/24
    I then enabled intervlan routing by issueing "IP ROUTING"
    At this point I configured the VDSL modem/router (zyxel F1000) on IP Address 192.168.1.2/30 and I configured interface fa0/1 with the following commands : 
    interface fa0/1
    no switchport
    ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.252 
    no shutdown
    I then set the default route using : 
    ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.2
    Finally I configured three static route's on my Zyxel F1000 modem/router to send traffic back to my three vlans using the gateway 192.168.1.1
    As i said above, If I plug into fa 0/3 (vlan 200) and lets say I give myself an ip address of 10.10.200.20, 255.255.255.0 and gateway 10.10.200.254. I can ping the othe vlns and devices on the other vlans no problem but bot for love nor money can i get onto the internet. For clarifications sake my dns is set to 8.8.8.8
    Stranger still is the fact that the switch can ping hostnames and ips on the internet no problem. Has anyone got any ideas what could possibly be wrong?? I'm completely stumped. 
    Regards, 
    Thomas Quigley

    Hey guys,
    Thanks for the speedy replies. I have been trying this for about 2 weeks now and last night after posting this message to the cisco forums I got my hands on an old Sonicwall router. I decided to test the connection using this as I suspected that Zyxel router is buggy. 
    I setup a PPPoE connection on the sonicwall and set that up as my default route matching exactly the ip settings listed above and it worked immediately. 
    I knew the setup I had ran above was right it was just tormenting me that it wouldn't work. Turns out its the piece of crap Zyxek VDSL modem. 
    Thanks for taking the time to read my post and offer advice. 
    Cheers, 
    TQ

  • Lumia 920 service problems/ no internet access. Also problem with receiving calls?

    As of yesterday I have been having a wierd problem with my Windows phone, and exploring through the web, I've seen a couple of other people with this problem as well, with no one really coming up with any other solution but to do a hard reset, which I abosuletly want to avoid. So my problem is that I don't seem to have any internet access, regardless if I am connected to 4G or through wifi. This is real wierd because it just started happening all of a sudden. I didn't do any update, didn't download anything new, nothing like that.I know for a fact that I'm simpily not just mistyping addresses or have airplane mode on, I'm stumpted as to why this is happening. To add another layer of confusion, I don't seem to receive all calls I get. For instace: yesterday, one of my friends called me, I received his call right? Well later that day, my Father apparently called me, but I never received any nottification or even a voicemail that he ever did.  What the heck is going on here and what can I do to resolve this?? 

    Hello @ThomasWolf
    I’m sorry to hear you’ve been experiencing issues with your phone.
    When you say you’re unable to access the internet, is it just via your Web browser? Or is it apps that require data such as Facebook, YouTube, etc.?
    Have you tried via more than one Wi-Fi network as well?
    Try to open up att.com/ttr via your mobile web browser; do you see a confirmation page?
    If you’re continuing to have issues, then please contact us.
    Thank you,

  • Able to connect ipad 2 to iphone 4s personal hotspot via bluetooth or wifi, but no internet access when connected via wifi.

    I am able to connect my ipad 2 to an iphone 4s personal hotspot via bluetooth or wifi.  The problem is that I only have internet access with a bluetooth connection. Both are running ios 6.1.2 and I have tried to reset both to factory settings. Any suggestions would be reatly appreciated. 

    Please don't shout!   Using all uppercase means shouting on the internet.  If your keyboard is stuck please say so, otherwise people will think you are being obnoxious.
    Now the first question is, when you are saying connecting to personal hotspot, have you always been using the iPhone to connect to the internet?   Are you someplace where the only place to connect is available via tethering to the iPhone's celluar network?  Or do you have other options?

  • RRAS VPN performance and Internet access which connecting to RRAS VPN

    For the first time, I setup win2008R2 RRAS VPN(L2TP and SSTP ) in Azure VM for my client.
    I am running Package Application which include SQL2008 in that  VM.
    I plan that remote user connect from client application using RRAS VPN to Application server in Azure VM.
    But I am worrying about the performance bottle net due to network speed reason.
    I am not yet make sure network environment of my client ( my client is living in USA ).
    1
    But if we decide to use RRAS VPN for that application , which kind of VPN(PPTP,L2TP,SSTP,IKE) will be better in network speed?
    2
    I noticed that which connecting to RRAS VPN, I could not connect to the Internet from remote client PC.
    Is there any way to enable RRAS VPN access and Internet access at same time ?

    Hi,
    1. PPTP is the easiest protocol to use for setting up VPN. And it have minimal security.
    L2TP/IPSec, SSTP and IKEv2 was more security than PPTP.
    IKEv2 can provide a secured uninterrupted ubiquitous VPN connectivity.
    Here are good article about comparing four types of VPN,
    Different VPN tunnel types in Windows - which one to use?
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/rrasblog/archive/2009/01/30/different-vpn-tunnel-types-in-windows-which-one-to-use.aspx
    2. Two common scenarios cause the problem that connected client can’t browse the Internet. First, the VPN server might not let remote clients access the Internet when they have a connection. In this case, when we close the VPN connection,
    the client can browse the Internet because the default gateway reverts to the gateway that ISP defines. Second, Windows might overwrite the ISP gateway with the VPN server-defined gateway when the client connects, so the client has no path to the Internet.
    We may need to uncheck the use default gateway on remote network to solve this problem.

    I need to setup a static ip only, but if i setup a static ip am able to access instance but no internet access, so that if i need to do any automation work like cron and sendmail is not working. How do i resolve this?
    1. I tried to setup a static ip configuration as editing the /etc/hosts and entry as
    192.168.1.10 hostname alias
    2. edited the resolv.conf for adding a nameserver as follows
    search hostname

    nameserver secondary dns
    but these entries are not available when i issue a service network restart
    3. Edited /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

  • Connecting MiFi 4510L mobile hotspot to a PC

    I recently upgraded my mobile hotspot to the 4510L 4G LTE. My previous MiFi device allowed me to connect my PC to the internet by USB cable. My new device came with a USB cable however it says its only used for updates/upgrades. I tried to use it anyways to connect my PC to the internet and it did not work. Of course the new device works well wirelessly with my laptop. Can I use my new device to connect my PC to the internet?

    You cannot tether / connect to the MiFi 4510L via USB cable. 
    The MiFi is wireless connection only device.  USB and Ethernet cable connections will not work with the MiFi.  If you need to use a cable then you must add a different device such as the one suggested by evdotech. 
    ex. MiFi ))))wireless)))) MBR95 ---cable--- Computer.
    The USB cable is only used for charging and firmware updates.  The 2.23 firmware update will enable you to take future updates over the air further reducing the use of the USB cable.

  • Connecting to T-mobile hotspot (UK)

    I have a t-mobile data account and have recently bought the new software opatch for the itouch which included the username and password fields in the wifi setup. But try as i might I cannot connect to t-mopbile hotspots.
    I did manage to connect once but this was through leaving safari looking for a random webpage and waiting for the proxy page to pop up.
    Has anyone had any sucess adding these hotspots to auto connect and how do i do it?
    Many Thanks

    Here is a suggestion: call (800) HOT SPOT to get help with the issue.
    T-Mobile uses either a web interface—in which you enter your username and password when initially presented with the location specific welcome page you seen when entering a Borders or Starbucks, for example—or, it allows you to log on using an 802.1X interface, which is not supported by the iPhone. On your portable computer, an 802.1X option is easily configured using Internet Connect.
    It may be that Safari on your iPhone does not interact with the location specific welcome page properly, or does not return an expected response. The tier 2 HotSpot™ representatives should be quite familiar with this issue in general terms, and can contact their network operations center at which your connection attempts can be monitored if they cannot initially walk you through resolving the issue.

    the results you're showing indicate a symmetric NAT (that is, a NAT that uses a different translation for each unique destination).  there is no way for a peer behind a symmetric NAT to coordinate and find another peer that's behind a different symmetric NAT or behind a port-restricted cone NAT.
    this posting by Matthew Kaufman explains the situation with NATs in more detail:
      https://forums.adobe.com/message/1064983#1064983
    as far as "fixing" it: the issue isn't the protocol -- a symmetric NAT is inherently defective.  the only fix is to not use a symmetric NAT in your network.  unfortunately this is often outside your control (such as with your mobile provider).
