Why Can’t I connect to a Hotspot with my WiFi Receiver? STATIC IP TURNED ON?

B
Why Can’t I connect to a Hotspot with my WiFi Receiver? STATIC IP TURNED ON?
Categories: Internet Troubleshooting

If you are attempting to connect to a Marina (Public) Hotspot and you get:

Connected to network: YES

IP obtained: YES

Internet detected: NO

But you don’t get a Captive Portal indication. Check on the Settings page to see if STATIC IP got turned on. Using a STATIC IP can cause connectivity problems. We want new current IP settings, by DHCP, from the current Hotspot. Otherwise, the connection gets broken. We can’t get to the Internet FROM an IP that is not valid for this Hotspot.

Turn that toggle switch back to OFF, click the “Change Settings” button, and then recheck the Current Connection information. I should populate with settings obtained from the Hotspot. Check on the Scan page if it now indicates connected. You might have to disconnect and re-connect again. But you should get connected and online.
