Wireless Homegroup connections ok, cannot connect in Public

Wireless access works perfectly in various Home networks, but when trying to connect in a Public place, all I get is a white empty window even though I show "connected"  with plenty of bars.  Problem exists for ANY public places I have
tried.

  • Connection Error, cannot connect to game server

    I Just updated to iOS 8.1.  When I tried to play WordRoll I got an error message, Connection Error, Cannot connect to game server.
    ave researched some answers and have tried several, log out then soft reset, delete app and reinstall, reset wireless, nothing seems to work.

    I'm not sure. Prior to last Wendesday our net connection was fine, but from Wednesday evening it's been decidedly flakey during the evenings
    Oh & I'm using a HH2 & am on Total Broadband option 3. I've also tried the Leatrix Latency Fix (several months ago) & have turned off the router for several mins (on Thursday evening). I've been able to connect again to the servers this morning (as I did yesterday morning). Here's the pathping (sorry for it being an image, I can't work out how to copy & paste from the dos box & don't really want to copy it out), my HH's saying I'm getting 7,616kps down & 448 kps up, Speedtest.net's saying 6.34Mb/s down & 0.38Mb/s up (now).

  • How is it possible that when I do have a Wifi connection, I cannot connect to Safari or Google Chrome or anything else internet-related?

    How is it possible that when I do have a Wifi connection, I cannot connect to Safari or Google Chrome or anything else internet-related? Sometimes it does all work, but after a while Wifi is still there and I am not able to go to any website whatsoever.

    Your network preferences file may be damaged, that would explain why you can configure the computer and get online but then when the computer wakes from sleep and needs to restore the setting it cannot.
    Open the Library folder of your computer (not the Library in your user directory) and then find the Preferences folder. Now the problem for me is that I've not used Leopard forever so I'm not sure exactly where the file you want is or what it is called. In Mountain Lion it is called:
    com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
    and it is inside a folder called SystemConfiguration. But I can't remember if this has changed along the way or not. The easy thing to do is to go back to the Network Preferences pane again and make the change I directed above. Then you can look in the Preferences folder and sort by date modified to find the network preferences file that was just now modified. Move it to the desktop, restart your computer, reconfigure the WiFi again and see what happens.

  • Internet works, but I have an exclamation mark instead of AirPort connection and cannot connect to my WiFi.. PLEASE HELP!

    Internet works, but I have an exclamation mark instead of AirPort connection and cannot connect to my WiFi.. PLEASE HELP!

    When you see an exclamation point in the Wi-Fi menu, from the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
    Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts. You may get a warning that Wi-Fi is not available, that you're too far from the base station, or that you're using the wrong password.
    Assuming that you've ruled out those possibilities, restart the computer and try again. If there's no change, click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane and authenticate, if necessary. From the Location menu at the top of the window, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click  Applyand test.
    If there's still no connection, and if you have control of the router, compare its settings to Apple's recommendations. Some third-party routers may be incompatible in 802.11b/g/n radio mode. Try setting the mode to 802.11n only.

  • Wireless working, but devices cannot connect

    Just recently, my FIOS wireless router started acting up. Regardless of what Wi-Fi enabled device I use (laptop, phone, etc.), sometimes the devices cannot connect to the internet wirelessly. When this happens, I would have to turn off and turn on the laptop's or phone's Wi-Fi and it will immediately work. This only happens on all my wireless devices because anything connected to the router via cable does not experience this issue. Anyone have a solution? Thanks.

    Sound like you're possibly having a radio signal problem.  Did you possibly just acquire a new wireless phone?
    Try logging on to the router and select the wireless tab and change the channel your router is broadcasting on.

  • VPN Connected Users cannot connect to the internet or send email

    I just upgraded to Xserve G5 Dual 2.3 GHz 2GB SDRAM and a 3.5 TB Xserve RAID Running OSX Server 10.4.7.
    Used to run G5 Tower running OSX Server 10.3.9.
    Running as a Standalone Server.
    Everything seems to be running smoothly other that the fact that users connecting through VPN can no longer connect to the internet while connected through VPN nor can they send email. (I assume it's the same issue).
    Wondering if password type is the issue. In 10.3.9 Workgroup Manager User password types were Open Directory for my vpn users. Previous Server was Standalone Server with Open Directory running, but not setup (weird I know.) 10.4.7, Open Directory for password is not an option... only shadowed password.
    Not running any Open Directory services other than Lookup Server: Running and NetInfo Server: Local Only.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    -Ed

    Unless otherwise informed, a connecting client will send ALL traffic via the vpn. Ideally you only want to route traffic applicable to the VPN and for any other traffic (browsing and external email) to go via your local 'normal' router. You can configure the VPN server to inform connecting clients about applicable VPN traffic...
    Example: the network you are vpn'ing into is 192.168.0.0/24
    In Client Information-> Network Routing Definition, add 2 routes:
    Address: 192.168.0.0
    Mask: 255.255.255.0
    Type: Private
    Address: 0.0.0.0
    Mask: 0.0.0.0
    Type: Public
    A connecting client will incorporate this routing information when connecting and thereafter send all traffic for the 192 network through the VPN (private) but send all other traffic (the catchall 0.0.0.0) to their local default router (public). Make sure you have them in that order (catchall at bottom).

  • I established a VPN configuration and connected but cannot connect to server?

    I work from an imac at home and need to connect to my work server and files.  I established the VPN configuration and connected to the building but cannot access the server.  What am I doing wrong or what else do I need to do.

    Once your VPN is connected, you still need to log in to the server(s) you are using.  This does not necessarily happen automatically - you may have to manually log in to your server(s).   To do this, in the Finder menu do Go > Connect to Server and enter the server address.  If these are windows servers it's probably an SMB connection in which case you would enter  smb://<serveraddress> in the server address field.
    Best bet is to talk with the IT folks where you work, as you may need specific information about how to log in to your server(s).  There are ways to automate the login but you first need the correct login details (server address, userID, password).
    If you want to automate the login process, here's a simple Applescript that I wrote in my own case.  Create this using Applescript Editor.  After testing, save it as an Application; then in System Preferences you can add it to your list of Login Items so it runs automatically whenever you sign in to your Mac.  Of course, your VPN will have to already be connected in order for this to actually work.
    delay 30
    tell application "Finder"
        mount volume "smb://servername1/mountpoint_A"
        mount volume "smb://servername2/mountpoint_B"
    end tell
    (Note: "servernameX/mountpoint_Y" is the address of each of the 2 servers I log into, except that in this example they are completely fictitious names.)

  • This page can't be displayed because your computer is currently offline - Wifi is connected, but cannot connect to the internet! :/

    "This page can't be displayed because your computer is currently offline" - what exactly does that mean? I've gone through and repaired by hard drive, and there didn't seem to be a problem there. I've manually entered in an IP address several times...and I've checked that there are no proxies selected. Any suggestions or thoughts on what I could do?

    Here's a little background info:
         Connection is to school wifi. I traveled out of the U.S. and connected to a university wifi - authenticated the 802.1x there...so - i've corrected that problem so far.
         I've rebooted my computer several times, checked the hard drive for "damages."
         I've made sure to have the correct username/password combinations.
         As of right now, the 802.1x won't authenticate, but I don't think that's what's causing me to have an "offline connection"

  • Excel 2013 connection wizard cannot connect to SSAS cubes

    When trying to connect to an SSAS cube from connection wizard in Excel 2013, the error message "Unable to connect to data source. Reason: Unable to locate database server.
    Steps.
    1. In Excel 2013 (Office Standard), from Data ribbon, select From Other Sources -> From Analysis Service
    2. Enter server name and click next
    3. The error meesage appears.
    However, when choosing an exsiting connection to the same server/cube using an odc file, the connection succeeds. The server name in the connection property is exactly the same as what entered in step 2.
    Also, using SQL Server Management Studio to connect the server also succeeds.

    Hi Pichai,
    You are trying to connect to SQL Server Analysis Services database in EXCEL 2013 without success, right?
    In your scenario, what the version of your SQL Server? Office 2007 installs data providers from SQL Server 2005. Office 2010 installs data providers from SQL Server 2008. Office 2013 installs data providers from SQL Server 2012. If you are using multiple
    versions of Office or SQL Server, and connections or feature availability are not what you expect, you might need to install a newer version of the data providers.

  • Cannot connect 8500a to wireless network

    i input the mac address during wireless network install but cannot connect printer to network

    Do you have MAC filtering enabled?  The printer will not like it plus it is not in the least a security measure.  I recommend disabling MAC filtering and just set the encryption to WPA2 with a strong, 13+ character, passphrase.
    Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

  • Cannot connect to AirPort Express after setting it up in AirPort Utility

    I have two PCs: one has a Linksys WMP54G wireless card to connect to my AirPort Express which is connected to a wired Linksys ethernet router; the other has an ethernet card which is also connected to the Linksys router. My cable modem is plugged into the router in order to provide internet access to both PCs. I came home from work yesterday to discover that my wireless PC could not connect to my AX. I have had the AX for over a year and it has pretty much worked fine up until yesterday. And it has worked fine for the past couple months connecting to the cable modem via the Linksys router. Connecting to the internet on my wired PC is no problem at all.
    First, I tried unplugging the cable modem and the AX, but no luck. After reading these discussions, I tried doing a hard reset on the AX and going through the AirPort Utility setup, but still no luck. I tried this several times, trying to configure it using both WEP and WPA. I think I originally had it set up as WEP, but when I reinstalled Windows at one point, I think I configured it as WPA (and it worked fine). I am not sure if this may be part of the problem When I reset the AX, it will eventually show up on the Windows Wireless Network list as an "Apple-09s8f23" unsecured network. Once I connect, I run the AirPort Utility (v5.3.2) and it detects it no problem. But after I go through the configuration process in the AP Utility, it gives me an error message: "AirPort Utility was unable to find your Apple wireless device after restarting...etc.". Meanwhile, the network still shows up in my Windows Wireless Network list, but cannot connect to it, and the light on the AX is still green. I have tried unplugging the ethernet cable to the AX, moving the AX to the same room as my wireless PC, and repeating the reset-configuration process, but still no luck, so I don't think it has anything to do with the Linksys router or the cable modem.
    Sorry for the wordy post, but does anyone have any advice or suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks in advance,
    Dave

    So I went back to the PC after my original post, and somehow I was able to connect to the AirPort wireless network in the Windows Wireless Network List. Once I did this, it showed up in the AirPort Utility, and I was able to access the internet. I have no idea what fixed the problem, but maybe it was simply a matter of waiting a few minutes before connecting to the network?
