    Sorry, do not use Comcast (or Xfinity - their new name!), but this info on their website leads me to believe that you must download and install the security profile to use their hotspots: http://wifi.xfinity.com/?CMP=KNC-IQ_ID_sEG2mI6Pa-VQ2-g-VQ6-107412918689-VQ16-c-pkw-%2Bcomcast%20%2Bwifi%20%2Bhotspots-pmt-b-slid--tid-17589yuy33248-

  • Problem connecting to the server by using the url with the logical name!

    Hi all!

    I looked for information on this subject, but have not seem to found a solution.

    I'm developing a Smartphone application that needs to connect to a server to retrieve data. Then I use a direct connection with the correct settings (I hope):

    URL = "url of the server" + "deviceside:true" + "AFN:...» »

    The problem is that the connection should be done without Hardcoding the "apn". These are the tests I've done so far (assuming I'm always add the ' deviceside: true ' parameter):

    URL (logical name) + AFN OK!
    FAILURE of the URL (logical name)
    URL (static IP) OK!

    * by logical name, I mean a url as www.google.com

    What I need is to use the logical name, without the parameter apn!  Maybe I'm missing another parameter that I don't know?

    Some additional info that might be useful! :

    -The server is a server of Vodafone, which, as has been explained to me, should be on the list of white of the RIM (not sure what that means, but I guess it has to do with the fact that BB connection through the RIM at one point servers, and be in this list gives a sort of 'privilege' when you browse servers of RIM) , and I don't know it is publicly accessible as (see following)

    -An android version of the application works fine without Hardcoding the AFN and using the logical name (I guess it has to do with the RIM servers!)

    Any help or ideas towards the solution that it is greatly appreciated!  If I'm missing some info that you think I should add! Please tell me!

    Thanks for your help!

    Juan

    Thanks Peter!

    I could solve it by looking at the code of the alternative of the Api network in the link sent you me!

    The solution was the addition of the ConnectionUID parameter to the url String!  as to why this solves the problem I still don't understand it! (If you can enlighten me with the reason, I would be very grateful)

    This value is found in the service books!, I have the zip code just in case it helps someone!

    Hogshead string = null;

    Full book sb = ServiceBook.getSB ();

    Reviews [] ServiceRecord = sb.getRecords ();

    for (int i = 0; i)< records.length;="">

    {

    String cid = records [i] .getCid () .toLowerCase ();

    String uid = records [i] .getUid () .toLowerCase ();

    If ((cid.indexOf ("wptcp")! = - 1) & (uid.indexOf ("wifi") ==-1) & (uid.indexOf ("mms") ==-1))

    {

    Hogshead = records [i] .getUid ();

    }

    }

    then add the parameter: ConnectionUID = Hogshead

    Once again, thank you!

  • Problem connecting my camcorder canon HV40 using the IEEE 1394 port.

    Windows Movie Maker (and other similar programs) will not recognize my camcorder. Mini-dv Canon HV40.

    I watched many forms and comments to try to solve this problem.

    Looks like I've tried everything.  When I uninstall the driver and restart my computer with the camera on playback mode, the device is found, takes me through the installation wizard and peripheral band AV/C, list host controller and about things but not the Canon camera.  The ToolTip that appears down right when the new hardware is found listed the specific Canon camera along the spirit the other stuff.

    On a random note, I uninstalled the IEEE 1394 and used the "Add Hardware" command to find the camera.  It worked once!  Grew up in windows movie maker and tried to download.  Along the way got a weird error 'photogalley' insert disk I have? Code of 1706.

    Never could make him again.  For only "device not detected.

    I get this error thing photogalley even when you do a scan.  If I hit Cancel enough that he leaves and the analysis was recorded.

    I'm just smart enough to be dangerous, but eager to get this resolved.  Any help most appreciated!

    I think that the way it should work if I turn my camcorder to play, the movie maker should take it from there.  Ouch who would be nice ~.

  • Changing channels of the hotspot wifi for your laptop

    Mr President.

    Sir I have transformed my cell phone as a wifi hotspot, success, but I can change the channels of this wifi signals? and if I can, then how?

    Hi Kunal,

    Ideally, the Wi - Fi channels are changed for the router in router configuration page.  It is not possible to change the channel of Wi - Fi if you connect using Hotspot. If you want to change the channel for hotspot Wi - Fi connection, then you can download and install the third-party software is available online.

    Note: using third-party software or a link, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third party software or link can be resolved. Using third-party software or a link is at your own risk.

    Go to: Control Panel, Manager of Devic, adapters to extend your network, click with the right button on your wireless network and click on uninstall.

    Do not put a check in the box: remove the software driver for this device.

    Restart your computer and Windows will install your wireless network.

    If the problem persists, see if your computer manufacturer has an updated driver.

  • How does a customer preform connected to an extensive WiFi hotspot using Ethernet?

    How does a customer preform connected to an extensive WiFi hotspot using Ethernet?

    It performs like any other wired device that is connected to an Ethernet port. However, in the case of a WAN, the unit that plugs into the Ethernet port on the extended base station will only get that fast of a signal that the connection between the "main" and "extended" base stations.

    In other words, if you use wireless to connect to the extended base station, there will be a loss of at least half of the potential speed wireless on the network.  A device that plugs into the Ethernet port on the extended base station will get this same speed.

    In order to maintain top speeds on the network, the main and extended base station must be connected together using wired Ethernet wired, permanent.

  • Satellite Pro A200 failing to connect with iphone via wifi hotspot

    My apologies if I get some of the jargon wrong, but I'm pretty useless when you want IT emits.

    I have a Satellite Pro A200 and had problems connecting to various wifi connections.
    The computer could see the wifi connection and connect to it, but I wasn't able to connect to the internet.

    The question of the Office was arranged by our IT support guy (security settings on the new router we too complex for my PC or something like that), but he has not been able to solve the problem of not being able to connect to my iphone to use the 'hotspot' via the wifi function.

    Someone there knows a way to solve this, or is it a simple fact of the laptop is too old and really need to update?

    Thanks for any help that anyone is able to give.

    > Someone know a way to fix this or is it a simple fact of the laptop is too old and really need to update?

    This isn't a question of the age of the laptop
    As far as I know not that support all mobile operators
    You should first ask your mobile operator if you can use the tethering service.

    If this would be supported in my mobile operator, then connect the iphone to the laptop first
    So that you have two options: you can use the BT connection (in this case check if computer laptop also supports BT) or via a USB cable that came with the iPhone.

    (PS: as far I know to attach is supported by iOS3.0 and higher)

    After that the iphone was connected to the laptop, you must activate the tethering on iphone.
    Under settings of-> network, you should see the option internet tethering it must be enabled.
    Now you should be able to see that in the Network & Center sharing control panel.

  • WiFi for computer laptop HP ENVY 15 and Ethernet connection problem

    Hi, a few months ago, I brought a HP ENVY 15 Notebook PC running windows 8.1. It is connected to my wifi with Ralink RT3290 802.11bgn Wi - Fi adapter. My modem is a Technicolour TG582n 2 Wireless ADSL + with wireless 802.11 b/g/n compatible.

    As soon as I got there I noticed a problem of internet where I would be able to connect to my home WiFi network and get full reception bars but would have a hard time to access Web sites on web browsers such as chrome, mozilla and internet explore pages takes some time to load and eventually reached a page "this webpage is not available" (for chrome). This problem seems to occur only with my home network as it can connect to public wifi and my wifi friends and yet I have many other devices such as laptops and other smartphones connected to my wifi that did not at all have poblems with internet and it just seems to be mine. When I connect via ethernet I get good connection for about 10 minutes and then I was completely cut off. However, I can upload a file via the wifi ok if I can get it to start and I can play a game online well enough but often disconnected after an hour or two.

    I checked for new updates of pilot, but they seem to be up to date and im do not manually downloading and installing one on the hp site but I tried (I did probably wrong). I ran the diagnostic function, but it cannot detect all problems. I looked around the internet as well, but still havn't found a solution.

    Also I got the laptop sent back and received a new but the same problem persisted and as I walked through the process of the person I was talking to a admitted that I had a problem like they remote limited from my laptop for a little for the access problem.

    Please help, I've had this problem for a month or two now and is really becoming a problem since I use my laptop computer for purposes of requiring home internet work.

    Thanks in advance and I hope you guys can help!
