Trying to get my iphone 4s to get my laptop or ipad onto the internet?

I have heard you can get your laptop or ipad to "teather" to your ipone to connect to the interent thru these devices.  Anyone know how to do it?

You add internet tethering/personal hotspot to your phone plan with your carrier the on the phone you turn on personal hotspot via settings > general > network

  • Trying to get Airport Express to connect to the internet in a school intranet

    I can get my new Airport Express to create a new network in my wife's classroom, but the school has an intranet that controls the internet access, so the Airport can't get on the internet.  What do I need to ask the school IT administrators for in the way of IP addresses, etc., and where do I include that information in the Airport start-up?

    You will have to be careful about asking questions of the IT guys since most schools prohibit the use of wireless routers on their networks. A more sophisticated network can be configured to automatically detect the presence of a router and simply not allow it to connect.
    We need to understand how the school's network works.
    When your wife connects her computer to the school network using an Ethernet cable, what procedure does she follow to first log on to the school's network?
    Is it the same as most hotels where once you have established an Ethernet connection between the computer and network, you open your Internet browser and a log in page will automatically appear. There you must typically enter a user name and/or password.
    If yes, the AirPort Express can likely be configured to work. Post back with your findings and we will continue.

  • Trying to restore my iPhone and itunes says it's not connected to the internet, but my web browsers work fine

    I tried to restore my iPhone 3G and I get a message that I am not connected to the internet but, I can barouse on the internet with my search engins.

    It's hard to tell what password you are referring to.  But my guess is you are being asked for the password to the iPhone's backup you created in iTunes.  It sounds like you chose to encrypt the backup.
    If that is the case, the following applies:
    Warning: Make sure it's a password you will remember or write it down for safekeeping. If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and forget your password, you can't restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable.
    If you can't remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and chooseset up as a new device when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore.

  • Can no longer get my laptop to connect to the internet

    Hi,
      I recently moved my router and dsl modem after reconnecting everything my laptop no longer can acquire internet access. I have network magic on both my desktop and my wired laptop. I tried resetting the modem reseting the router. nothing seems to work.
    I have network magic version 5.5.9195.0-Pure0
    Using Windstream DSL
    The modem is a Speedstream 4200 Adsl Modem version a12
    The router is a Belkin f4d7230-4 version 7000
    The problem is present in both wired and wireless configuration.
    The desktop is using Windows XP SP 3, the laptop is using Windows 7 64 bit professional
    I am using ZoneAlarm Extreme Security.
    I am able to connect the desktop directly to the DSL modem (bypassing the router) and have connection but when I try to connect the laptop, no internet access is available.
    I am lost!!! Any suggestions??

    Hi...
    Here is one item you can check... If I am following how your home network is setup...
    Usually when this happens you have to clone your mac-address to the appliance. This can be done using the administration console on your Belkin router.
    First, attach your laptop or desktop directly to the DSL and check your connection.
    Then after you have tested your internet connection ok directly attached to the DSL router you reconnect your Belkin router and open your network connection to the web interface. (check your ip address and gateway once attached to the Belkin and see what the gateway address is - this is the ip you need to use to get to the Belkin web interface) Once attached to the web inerface on the Belkin find the "Clone Mac Address" wizard within the advanced administration settings. Then once you clone your mac address using the wizard you should be reconnected to your network like it was originally and your setup should work again...
    Hope this makes sense...
    Good luck...
    H.

  • I am trying to get coupons from a market via the internet which seemed to be blocked by Firefox. What do I do?

    I am trying to download coupons from a supermarket to my printer. I got a message saying that my browser was probably blocking the download. The 'instruction' button provided sent me to an explanation of add-ons, but didn't say anything about what to do. I would appreciate some instruction on hos to get the coupons downloaded. Thank you.

    Evidently there was more than one update listed for your Mini.  Next time launch the App Store app in your Applications folder and log in with the Apple ID used to purchase your Mini. Click on the Updates folder and look for available updates.  There you can select one at a time for installation.
    Look in the Download folder in your Home folder to see if the 9.4.3 update is there.

  • I can't get my laptop to connect to the internet through my Ellipsis Jetpack.

    My laptop will connect to the jetpack but with limited access. It will connect to my mom's computer and my phone. I have windows 8.1 and she has windows vista.

    The usual thing is to delete the existing Jetpack profile on the Windows laptop, and then reestablish a wireless connection to the laptop where you will have to reenter the Wi-Fi Password.
    If you’re still having trouble, Verizon Wireless Customer Service (800) 922-0204, exists to help you connect your laptop to your Jetpack.

  • Resetting Airport Extreme disabled my home network. Now when i attempt to get to internet with iPad, or iPhone, I see an Earthlink (ISP) window with message: The internet connection is currently in use by another computer (nun.nn.n.nn)

    Resetting Airport Extreme disabled my home network. Now when i attempt to get to internet with iPad, or iPhone, I see an Earthlink (ISP) window with message: The internet connection is currently in use by another computer (nun.nn.n.nn) Enter your DSL Account logon psassword to switch the internet connection to this computer. If I do that, other messages follow. I am usually able to switch connection, but can have only one device on internet at a time. Tried to correct problem using Airport Utility, but failed.

    Unfortunately, there is mass confusion about whether a device might be a modem or a modem/router since the terms are mixed up all the time. Even though a device might have only one Ethernet port, it can still be a router.
    If this is your "modem".......
    http://reviews.cnet.com/routers/netopia-cayman-3341-router/4507-3319_7-30484785. html
    It is not a modem.....it is a modem/router. If that is the case, then the AirPort Extreme is not the only router on your network....it is one of two routers, and it should be configured to operate in Bridge Mode.
    Does this device appear to be your "modem"?

  • My Ipad2 won't turn off.  I've tried the reset method,  holding both buttons down for at least 10 seconds, but this doesn't work. I'm on version 5.1.1 and all other functions work except that I cannot get onto the internet via wi-fi either.  Help ??

    My Ipad2 won't turn off.  I have tried the reset method by holding both buttons down for at least 10 seconds, but this doesn't work.  I can't get onto the internet via wi-fi either (don't have a 3G card fitted).  All other functions seem to be working OK including charging. Not had this problem before, but I recently upgraded software to 5.1.1 so is there a bug in there somewhere?

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • I just bought a new iphone, how do i get my songs from itunes onto the new phone?

    i just bought a new iphone, how do i get my songs fron itunes onto the new phone? when i log into itunes, none of my songs are there...

    Are you saying your iTunes doesn not have your songs?  If not, where would they be?  If on an older iphone, then they should have gotten there via itunes and itunes has them.

    mono 8 bit 8k is 64kbps, yes. 8 bits times 8,000 = 64,000 = 64k bits/sec.
    And yes I think that's a typo - there's no such thing as 'Mone' that I've ever heard of...
    But you might want to check to find out if this is a mu-law non-linear format, possibly - there are several ways that 8 bit 8k wav files can be encoded, and typically phone systems don't use linear ones. If you have a log-in to Zultys' user-base system they have an FAQ there, I believe - the answer might be in that, and it won't cost $500.

    Hi there,
    It sounds like there may be an issue with the quality of the PDF. Not all PDFs are created equal, and especially those created from scanned documents can be problematic if the scan quality isn't the best. Is there a dark background on the PDF, or stray marks or smudges?
    You can try converting with OCR disabled at outlined in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (O... | Adobe Community. But, while that's a good test to find out where the problem lies, you'll end up with a Word document that isn't editable, so it's not an optimal solution.
    Please let us know how it goes.

    When I purchased my iphone and ipad last week they told me I would connect the ipad to the internet through the phone but can get niether the phone nor the ipad to see the internet?

    Connecting the iPad to the internet via the iPhone is done by setting up a personal HotSpot, but you have to have that supported by your carrier and have to have established the account to do so.
    On the  iPhone, Settings > General > Network > Set Up Personal Hotspot
