Wifi hotspot issue

After lollipop update, I have an issue with wifi hotspot. Do we know something about???

Hi Theofilos, welcome to the community!
Have you tried downloading your internet settings? If so and you have mobile data & hotspot turned on and you still can't connect then try contacting your local Sony Xperia Customer Care team as they may have a fix for you.

IPhone 5 Wifi Hotspot - Issue with Non Apple Devices

Hi !
I have iPhone 5 and a Working LTE connection , My Carrier officially supports data tethering. Previously i could turn on Personal Hotspot and use internet in my card with other Non-Apple Devices such as GPS , Samsung devices etc.
But recently i noticed after update to 7.1.2 . I can turn on Hotspot
1- Apple Devices can connect to Hotspot such as Mac Book Pro , IPhone and iPad.
2- Windows Laptop can use Internet Using USB Cable connected with iPhone but can not connect through Wifi.
3- All other Non-Apple Devices ( such as Lumia 1520 , Samsung Galaxy S5 ) Can not Connect to Wifi Hotsopt.
Is there any specific restriction or policy which is preventing this.
I have tried , Reset All Settings , Reset Network Settings. but it does not work.

Hi dumbcode,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
You sound very familiar with Personal Hotspot and have already done some good troubleshooting. In your situation I suggest going through the Wi-Fi trouble shooting section of the attached article.

TS1398 I have the ipad retina display version - I have a BIG issue with this when out and about that on about 50% of the time will it see my HTC mobile WiFi hotspot - rebooting either, or both devices doesn't cure the problem it drives me MAD!!!!

I have the ipad retina display version - I have a BIG issue with this when out and about, that only about 50% of the time will it see my HTC mobile WiFi hotspot - rebooting either, or both devices doesn't cure the problem it drives me MAD!!!!
The HTC hotspot works fine with everything else I connect to it.
Also - ipad will not connect to my HTC via bluetooth. Again, I can connect to everything else with my HTC other than my ipad.
I have to say this is my first venture into Apple products and I have always wanted to get away from my windows based laptop to get a MacBook, the problems I have had (flash player etc) & continue to have (as above) are putting me right off swapping over. I HATE technology that doesn't work and my ipad has been hard work!

I stated my ipad as being an ipad2, but I now think it is a 3??? It was new Jan this year and is the 64gb retina display version.
I really would like to get to the bottom on this problem wit mobile hotspots as it is sitting on my desk next to me now and I cannot get it to connect to my HTC mobile hotspot!!!! It might be taking a flying lesson soon at this rate!!! Grrrrrrr...........

Trying to connect my iPad Air 1 to my iPhone 5S set as a hotspot via WiFi method. iPad sees the iPhone as wifi hotspot, but an error appears 'Remote Hotspot Failure .. Unable to start personal hotspot'. How do I fix this issue??

Issues with creating a wifi hotspot with Macbook Pro

Hello. I am staying in a hotel with others for an extended period of time. There is only one ethernet port. I have previously used the ethernet via internet sharing to turn my macbook pro into a wifi hotspot. I went through the steps this time (checked, double-checked, and triple-checked via various websites), and though my computer says that it is broadcasting, AND all the other devices (iPhones, other laptops) can see and connect to the network, no internet seems to be coming through the broadcasted connection.
What I mean is, the network exists, and when others connect it shows full signal in their airports, etc, but they still can't connect to the internet. Pages won't load, my iphone tells me that it's "not connected to the internet" even though it has full wifi bars. Is there some important step that I'm missing? I am running Snow Leopard.
When I did this before, I feel like there was some other strange option I either had to enable or disable, but that was a long time ago and I can't recall. Right now, I just go into internet sharing, set "ethernet" as broadcasted from, and "airport" as broadcasted to, then I name the network and click "Start" and everything seems to work, except for the not actually being connected. Can anybody explain this?

I can indeed get on with just my Mac, as can my roommate (he also has a Macbook Pro). I have not tried turning off my firewall. That may do it. However, I do not know how to turn off my firewall. I could just google it, but I figure I'll ask y'all anyway.

Captive Network Assistant checks 249 different airport, hotel and other misc WiFi hotspots adding a good 3 minutes to my startup time.

Hey there,
During startup of my MacBook Pro, Captive Network Assistant checks 249 different airport, hotel and other misc. WiFi hotspots. Proabaly adding a good 3 minutes to my startup time. ***? This all started while I was on extended layover at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport.
I thought Captive Network Assistant was an iOS thing. No iOS devices in my home or office. Here's a portion of the console log during startup.

Looking at the times, I see this only takes a fraction of a second but my startup time is still much much longer than it ever was or should.
Does anyone have any idea on how to get rid of this? I deleted the Captive Network Assistant.app from my computer but the checking continues. It seems to be a rarely mentioned issue doing a web search, and nothing like this, although it's referred to in certain articles.
Really weird.
Gregg

I'd take another look at your startup log.
If you look closely, you'll see that all those log messages occurred in the space of 30 milliseconds - by comparison, a human blink takes about 150 milliseconds.
So while I don't doubt you're seeing slow startup time, I don't think CaptiveNetworkSupport is the culprit, per se.
Fortunately, since every startup event is timestamped, it should be easy enough to determine what task is taking the most time.
As for CNS, it's not just an iOS thing - it's standard in Mac OS X, too. I'm also under the impression (but can't confirm) that it only checks the networks that you've previously connected to, so check System Preferences -> Network -> AirPort -> Advanced -> WiFi and delete any networks you no longer use or expect to connect to.

Is there a fix for wifi hotspot

Hi all, I have used my hotspot in the past, However after upgrading to IOS 5.1 it no longer works with a Windows machine via wifi.
Is there a known solution, or is it even possible to backdate my phone to a older IOS that will resolve the issue?
Does anybody with Apple care have info on if apple is addressing the issue?
The hotspot works with other devices such as Ipods, and E-readers so I am pretty sure it is a login compatiblity issue between Microsoft windows and apple's Wifi hotspot.
Highflier
This seems to be a fairly common issue as my wife's Iphone has the same issue and a google shows lots of hits with same problem.

Nope that did not do anything for the hotspot feature, not sure what it did short of a power off/on like reboot.
Thanks but try again
FWIW the 2 PC's I am trying use XP service pack 3 and a Vista PC.

IPad connects to free WiFi Hotspots, but NOT on my home WiFi network

First, let me say that I have my iMac and a PC laptop working on my home WiFi network with no problems. My iPad connected to my home WiFi network for several months until about a week ago or so, somewhere around the time that I updated my iPad to OS 4.3.3.
In the General settings section I have reset the NETWORK setting several times to no avail. I changed my network SSID twice, and changed my WAP2 password 3 times. My iMac and PC laptop worked like a charm for each change. But, like I said, my iPad has no issues connecting to free WiFi hotspots like at coffee shops, but "cannot join my Clearwire WiFi network" at home.
My guess is that I have an OS issue, but if anybody knows anything better, please let me know.
Thank you.

I think the OS issue is with the password because free WiFi hotspots don't require passwords. So, all of my RF circuits are fine. My password is correct because when I changed it in the Clearwire WiMax modem\router, I was able to connect with the new password on my iMac and PC laptop with no problems.
I have a 3 month old Clearwire 4G modem\router. My iPad worked great from the day I installed it. It stopped working around the time that I updated my iPad OS to 4.3.3.
I am hoping that there is an OS fix because I had Clearwire on the phone for over an hour and we re-booted the modem\router several times and reset it to its default values. Again, I have no problems connecting with my iMac or PC laptop. They work like a charm, just like my iPad used to.

Free Verizon WiFi HotSpots Now On-Line

It looks like Verizon has turned on the ability to register for access to free Verizon WiFi HotSpots.
Verizon Wi-Fi for High Speed Internet Verizon Wi-Fi* is a free service that enables qualified Verizon High Speed Internet subscribers to access the internet at thousands of public places known as Wi-Fi hotspots. This wireless service is not intended to be used from your home, but to be used while on-the-go.
Here is the URL:
http://www22.verizon.com/ResidentialHelp/HighSpeed/Networking/SetUp/WiFi/124611.htm?LOBCode=C&PromoT...
It requires a 20MB Download or better FIOS Plan or 3MB or better DSL Plan
Verizon Wi-Fi is available with select High Speed Internet packages and in designated locations only. The service requires Windows Vista or Windows XP 32-bit with Service Pack 3. Verizon Wi-Fi is not available on Macintosh, Windows XP 64-bit, or Windows 7 operating systems.

Totally agree...I was excited that Verizon was finally allowing free Wifi access for premium high speed subscribers (something AT$T offered over a year ago) but this was short lived after finding out that my netbook running Linux (Ubuntu) was not on the list of operating systems (an extremley short list) I assume this will change and they want to get to all of their primary OS users out of the way first. Disappointing to say the least. There are alot of your subscribers that are looking for alternatives to the infamous "Windows" especially on their mobile devices. I hope they will provide these users with options as well.

My wifi hotspot on my iPad can't be used. Does it have something to do with the device?

I try to use my iPad hotspot on my android device. I managed to connect to it once using wifi hotspot. And now, everytime I try to reconnect. It won't work.

1: Backup your user files folders of Documents, Music, Pictures etc., to a external powered drive (not TimeMachine) and disconnect.
2: Insert the 10.6 installer disk and reboot holding c
3: Simply reinstall OS X without erasing the drive, it will overwrite the installed version of OS X and the root level software, but leave your Applications folder contents (expect Apple bundled programs) and user files alone. (but backup anyway in case it fails)
4: Reboot and the Integro is gone out of your system, but there may still be something laying around in Applicaitons to delete. Use Software Update to get up to date.
5: You don't need anti-virus on a Mac, Apple provides it already for you sight unseen.
6: If you Software update, the bad certificate issues are pulled, thus are not a threat.

Verizon wifi hotspots and android devices

Are the Verizon wifi hotspots available for use with use with anything but the extremely limited options verizon supports with its silly "wifi connect" tool. If that is the case - it would seem that this preticular feature is about is about as useful as a gallstone.

We hav a Galaxy Tablet 3G LTE and we love it. But the past couple of months, it's 3G Mobile Hotspot is AWFUL. We cannot connect to the Hotspot consistently. We constantly have to turn it off and on (or disable from the laptop or Ipod) and try again.
We even sent the Tablet back to Verizon and received another one. The problem is the same, so I know it's the Tablet. I borrowed my Parent's JetPack and we had incredible internet. So, I know it's not our Location or our Laptop or Ipod!!
Yes, we have called Support countless times. They have us check a different option or they think they have fixed it on 'their end', but to no avail. HELP, we are so frustrated.
You might want to post about this issue at the Verizon Wireless forum instead: https://community.verizonwireless.com/
My advice for that though would be to double check your tablet to make sure the firmware is up to date. While it's apparently now illegal to unlock your device, if the device is already unlocked you may want to consider changing the ROM on it if you're so inclined. Sometimes the manufacturers's run of the mill OS has weird bugs like that.

Wifi - Hotspot option Gone!

Hi,
I recently faced a problem in my BB Curve 9320, wherein there was no sound playin in the fone for anything. Including media player, incoming calls, alarms etc. I got a software update from one of the registered vendors. However, after that update the 'wifi-hotspot' option in my phone has disappeared.
Can anyone please tell me how to get back that. I tried software update again but I already have the latest OS.
Please help!!

Hello shailendrasadh,
Welcome to the forums.
When you installed the software update did you get the software from the original service provider for this device?

Wifi hotspot unable to create

i want to create my laptop as wifi hotspot as i m using ethernet connection but gets this message in cmd prompt " wireless local area network is powered down and doesn't support the requested operation"

Hi,
Have you enabled the sharing option for the WLAN card.
Type the following command in command prompt and check for Hosted Network Supported is Yes or No.
netsh wlan show drivers
Note:
If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem

Create WiFi Hotspot using the command promt

I was trying to create WiFi Hotspot on my Windows 7-32bit running laptop using the command promt method after followinng the instructions from here >> http://www.techswatch.com/2014/11/create-wifi-hotspot-windows-87-command-prompt.html However, the problem is, after creating the hostpot, when I enter the password it does get connected but I cannot access the internet. I am sure that I have entered the correct password else it wouldn't have got connected. Any idea what could have gone wrong? Any help would be apprecited.

Hi ihtisham301,
Thank you for visiting Sony Community!
Try to connect any different device to your home network. If other device can't connect then you may contact your Internet Service Provided (ISP) for further assistance.
If other device can connect, then try to isolate the issue. You mentioned you cannot connect to the network but you were able to enter the credentials before connecting to the network. Try to ping any website, Start -> search cmd -> once in command prompt, enter ping googe.com and hit Enter. Check the Ping statistics. Try to ping your router as well. ping [router IP address] then hit Enter. Also boot the laptop in Safe Mode with Networking -> turn off the laptop, press the power button and immediately, tap the F8 key repeatedly. Once in Advanced Boot Options, select Safe Mode with Networking.
I'm not quite sure about the process that you did. I never tried that before. And another thing is, it seems that you are using a non-U.S. model of Vaio. We usually have Windows 7-64bit computer. We have limited information with non-U.S. model of laptops.
For further assistance regarding your concern, please contact the Sony offices/Sony representative offices nearest to your place of residence in Asia Pacific region http://www.sony-asia.com/countryselector.html?hpid=countryselector:AsiaPacific. Due to proximity, they are in a better position to respond to your questions or concerns.
Hope my suggestions help.
Thanks,
Vincent
