Wifi Connected but No Internet access

  • 772

I connect to the Internet on my laptop via the wifi hotspot on my phone. Currently I am able to connect to the hotspot, but unable to surf. I have tried tethering the phone to the computer, but no luck there either. I am able to connect to another (router) wifi hotspot and surf. I have tried all manner of fixes with no luck.

OK, I did the following. Pinging seems to work. The problem seems to be the same as that described here: Wifi connected but no internet. I can connect to my phone's wifi hotspot, but I get "Page Not Displayed" error messages on all browsers.

    From the debug we made I can only guess the missing thing is to setup APN type as DUN (or default, dun) on your phone. Let me know how it goes.
