Dell :: WPA2 PSK HotSpot Station Will Not Serve Secure Pages
Oct 7, 2012
When I connect my Android device (Nook) via the HotSpot "Local Area Connection" it has a strong signal, but for some reason cannot load any https webpages, such as gmail.com. It always says "web page not available" when I know the sites are working. Previously it connected without any problems but now only non-secure websites are accessible; I don't know what has caused the change.
My device connects with no such problem via the larger wireless network here (security is WEP), but the signal is weak so I prefer to use the HopSpot connection.
I have a XPS with HotSpot 1.1.0.0. The device says it is connected to HotSpot with WPA/WPA2 PSK.
I am using the Vostro 3360 with win 7, I did used the hotspot station software accomplish with the WiFi driver before and worked fine. However, the hotspot is not working as the ipv4 is showing 'no internet connect'. And my iPhone cannot connect it too.
Iv tried about everything you can find when you google things about not being able to access a particular website but none work checking out all security settings, deleting all cache, disabling security, checking date and time, flushdns, use opendns, try other devices (not one device in my household can get to https pages on this one site), making sure root certificates are updated, bypassing router, unplugging internet and router to ''reset'', trouble shooting with isp, website, ssl issuer, other wildblue users, other website users, other tech forum, checking for virus and malware and I'm sure there's more that I can't recall at the moment. I am not the only user of this website with a problem and all us having a problem have satellite internet (different providers), however not everyone with my satellite internet (wildblue thru dishnetwork) has this problem as I have asked here...some do some don't Wildblue ''blocking'' a website's ssl? - WildBlueWorld.com Forums
I can go to the website toontown.com but I can not access any pages that are ''secure'' or https. Can't login and using satellite internet?
Is there anyway to have my wireless network secure on an WPA2? I am sharing with my landlords network. Everytime I try to create a 14 digit password it disables my connection. Does my landlord have to create a password or can I just do it myself?
I have kindle fire that is unable to connect to the wireless network.All otehr devices windows phone, xbox and laptop are able to connect seamlessly.Amazon also sent me a replacement, but the issue is still the same. The error is:
"Unable to connect to the selected access point, Please check the password you provided."
Also, I removed the security on the network to see if its able to connect without password.The state where it fails is Obtaining IP address and it fails again.
I have a Latitude D820, Windows XP, SP3. At my office I have a regular docking station but at home I have a D/Dock docking station. When I dock the 820 at home the Broadcomm network card works flawlessly. When I dock it in the office, it will occasionally work but most of the time the link light and data light on the docking station are on solidly and XP reports that the cable is unplugged. I have tried two different docking stations with identical results and also tested the cable by plugging it into the docking station that holds a D810. With the D810 it worked normally.
I have a Latitude D400 laptop with docking station. I left on a trip for a week and came back to find I cannot connect to the network through the docking station. I can however connect if I plug the ethernet cable directly into the laptop. Is this a hardware problem with the docking station?
I am using a wireless connection via router to access internet at home. When my Dell Latitude E6510 Laptop is not on the Dell Docking Station and I'm using as just standalone I can access my wireless connection easily, no problem at all.However, when I attached my laptop to my Dell Docking Station, I can not access my wireless connection. The wireless connection is found, but when I click connect to network, I get "Windows cannot found network". When I remove the laptop from the docking station, I find the wireless connection and connect perfectly and it works normal.I am using Windows 7. I can connect to internet with straight wire going to docking station easily, but no wireless connection found when laptop is on the docking station. I work from home and use the docking station for two monitors for doing my job. I have struggle with this problem for two weeks now. I don't see anything on the docking station that's preventing me from access my wireless connection.
I cannot utilize my Ethernet connection when my Dell Latitude D630 is connected to a docking station. I have tried this on two different docking stations. I also have another Dell laptop that I have used in the one of the same docking stations and the ethernet connection is fine. I'm looking for assistance to troubleshoot this (even just determining if I can replace the connector and how I determine what type I need)
I own a DELL Inspiron N5010 laptop.I use Reliance net connect in order to connect to the internet.I don't have any external devices connected to my laptop other than the USB data card.I have a smart phone and a tablet for which I need a WiFi connection in order to access the apps.
I think that N5010 has an inbuilt wireless adapter.Can I turn my laptop into a hotspot,so that I can access WiFi @ home for my other gadgets.I even downloaded a driver from the Dell support (Intel Centrino Wireless-N 1000 ) and also tried to set up a wireless connection using adhoc.I can see my connection listed in the system tray,but the connection says "WAITING FOR USERS".
I cannot get my Dell Laptop Inspirion c to connect to Iphone Hotspot. Is there s setting I need to change? My spouse's Dell laptop connects to Iphone hotspot without any trouble. I've restarted several time, it shows that it's connected, google will come up for a minute and then nothing.
I just bought a XPS 8300, I use Google Chrome for a browser, cable modem internet connection, and quite often, web pages will not load quickly, or will take a couple of reloads to load properly. Any advice on how to cure this annoying trend of mine?
I recently bought a new XPS One 2710. No problems except that when on the internet the web pages will suddenly drop to the bottom of the page and it is almost impossible to scroll back to the top. This is intermittent. It didn't happen the first week I had it and I have never had that problem with my laptop. Also, the cursor seems to want to move around when in areas that I am going to type in, like to do a search or put in the site name or such. All security is in place, Dell facilitated me with that via the phone.
My Inspiron 600M laptop running XP - SP3 connects fine to my wireless network when using WEP but refuses to connect when using WPA2. I have Verizon FiOS with an Actiontec router (MI424WR - Rev. I). Googling this issue produces lots of older posts about the need for SP3 vs. SP2, but not much else. Should I look into updating the laptop's driver? If so, how? I tried creating a custom password (key) with fewer digits.
I'm also not thrilled about the wireless speed I'm getting on this laptop -- about 6 Mbps even when it's right next to the router. (The desktop, with a wired connection to the router, gets 25.) (1) Could the two issues be related? One tech rep assured me that WPA2 would greatly increase my network's range and speed, but other people deny this. (2) Is this just due to the Inspiron's older wireless receiver, or is there something else I could tweak to improve my speed?
My Internet Explorer will not save settings/changes to highlight color of viewed pages in search results. It will not highlight search pages that have been viewed at all. I have Internet Explorer 9 & Windows 7 - 32 bit on a Dell Inspiron 1545. I have uninstalled & reinstalled Internet Explorer 9. Above mentioned application did not work on either Internet Explorer 8 or 9. I have cleared all cookies, deleted all temp. internet files, optimized disc space twice & done a Full scan w/ my Norton. I go to color setting under Internet Explorer make the changes & hit each "OK", but the changes don't take. The "Apply" button is recessed and is not functioning. This has been the problem for approximately the last week and 1/2, before that color highlighting function was working. This color highlighting feature of viewed pages does work in Mozilla fire fox, but that is not what I want to use.
I have a SMC Gateway Router and 2 computers connected to it with RJ-45 cable. They are (1 iMac + 1 PC) 150 feet apart both computers are wired to the router. I also have a Canon Pixma MP 560 Multifunction Inkjet printer that has the capability to be connected both wired and wireless. Right now it is only connected to the iMac via a USB connection as all 3 (router, iMac and printer) are on the same workstation.how to connect the printer so it could also support the 2nd computer a Windows PC which is located on the floor below. Can I do that through the wired router too? If not possible, I also have the capability to connect wirelessly although I would prefer to use the wired connnections.The PC has a Belkin USB 2.0 Network Adapter for wireless connection; both SMC Router and Belkin USB adapter are 902.11 N capable.
I am trying to use my pc's internet connection that I am getting from a cricket wireless device to go to a linksys wrt54g router. I believe it should be possible to enable ICS and hook up a cable from the nic on the pc to the wan port on the router but have not been able to get it to work so far.

I am currently using a Dell Inspiron with Windows 7 and I am having issues connecting with my wireless router. It is a Netgear WNR1000 v2. I live in an apartment with two other guys and both of them are able to connect to the router perfectly, and one of them has the exact same computer as I do. We have other wireless networks around our apartment that aren't secure and I can connect to them but I can't connect to the secure router.
I want to put a second router on the inside of my (new, soon-to-be-installed) VDSL router supplied by my ISP. Reading the E1200 manual I believe that I can use the "Internet" socket to connect to one of the four sockets on the wired part of my ISP's router, and give it a fixed IP address which matches the network defined on the ISP router.
For example use 192.168.0.0/24 for the network between the ISP router and the E1200, and then configure the E1200 to serve out addresses in 192.168.2.0/24 (say).I don't want to buy the E1200 and then find it won't do what I want.
I have a F5D7231-4 router and I would like to know:
1) if it can serve as network extension (wifi)? from main wifi router 2) if I can setup a local network getting ip from my iphone, then using DHCP to have on same network my ipad, and a printer?
I am about to re-install Windows ME on an old Dell Dimension 4300. The computer is connected to the internet via a 2Wire 3600HGV DSL modem/router.
Do I need a software firewall? Or is the router sufficient? Is antivirus software necessary if I don't download anything? It will be part of a local LAN, so I don't want to jeopardize any of the other PCs on the home network.
NOTE: I'm looking to run some older (non-DOS) computer games that don't run well (or at all) on XP and newer systems.
NOTE 2: When I say 'secure', I'm not looking to actively browse the web on the machine. I was curious as to what risks I be facing if I simply had this PC connected to my local network (and thus the internet).
I'm using an HP Elitebook 6930p with Windows XP and an HP EN488UT docking station. When I use the computer by itself the Network Connections shows "Local Area Connection 3 Connected Intel 83567LM Gigabit Network Connection" and I can connect to the internet. When I am in the docking station, I can also see this connection, as long as my notebok is open when I start up. However, if i start the computer with the lid closed (I just want to use the external monitor, not the notebook monitor) that network connection does not appear and I cannot connect to the intenet.
Can I connect 2 or more wireless repeaters to the same wireless base station signal to extend wireless coverage? I.e. The base station is located in the centre of the building and the signal covers the middle but not the extreme end of the building. I would like to add a repeater on each opposite sides of the signal's reach so it covers the complete building. I can't use LAN cable and the building has different electricity supply to the 3 different part of the building so can't use the mains to carry the signal. Is this possible using wirless repeaters or do I have to use wireless bridge units to connect to the base station and then output with wireless access points attached to the bridge unit to extend the wirless signal?
if the network i'm planning on will even work so i drew a picture on my project (attached). All cables will be gigabit compatible as will be the switches. The reason i will have 2 switches is because they won't be in the same building. The uppermost switch will be physically next to the router to enable me to have gigabit connection between the DiskStation and the PCs/HTPC without having to change my router (in fact can't change it due to special firmware for my internet TV).
We would like to install a wireless network throughout the station. Currently we have a wired network with 15 PC's and are looking at obtaining tablets for our squads and apparatus. The station is quite large and is divided by the vehicle bays.I'm thinking that we will need multiple access points throughout the station. I am familiar with setting up one wireless router but not with multiple access points.
I have the Air Station WHR-G300N. I just moved here from CA, I was on Verizon and now trying to use it on my girlfriend Cox system I can't get it to operate correctly.
Her PC system stopped having internet connection after about 2 weeks(running on the router) and going with Cox's reboot procedure of eliminating the router it can back up and seems to work fine as soon as I hook it back to the modem it stops.
I have unplugged all cables waited 30 seconds on both systems a couple of times. The lights are on the modem and the router.
I am trying to install ACS 5.0 on workstation, however once the install finsihes it reboots and I enter the Linux bash command line rather than the Cisco CLI.
Note - this is now fixed. I followed the steps here to install ACS 5.0 on VMware Workstation 7: url...
