From what it seems since your phone also won't work with the hotspot, the limited is due to a problem with the hotspot itself. If you own the hotspot, restarting the router may fix the problem but if you don't own it, then either contact the administrator or find another access point to use.

SOURCE: Cant connect laptop to cable modem

OK based on the IP address you've given me I can tell that your network card is not getting an IP from the cable modem. The IP you have there is automatically assigned by windows in the absence of a proper DHCP server.

You have 2 options now you can try to manually assign the IP address and connect to the modem or if u have the CD that came with it you can connect to it using a USB connection (most modems have a usb port) and configure the modem manually to give you an IP or at least see what address range it is using and configure your PC to suit.

If you don't have the CD and USB and you want to manually assign an IP address to your PC most modems tend to use 1 of 3 address, you can try either:
192.168.1.1
192.168.0.1
10.0.0.1
to connect to the modem (if you use a ping command from the command prompt with any of the above addresses the one that replies is the ip of ur modem)

and manually configure your PC network card with either
192.168.1.25
192.168.1.25
10.0.0.25

Its a little technical i know but you should be able to do it
Hope this helps you.

If this doesn't work we can try a "tracert" command next to see if we can determine the modem IP

If you are at a area with a hotspot that is not encrypted then yes, you should be able to connect. Places such as Starbucks, McDonalds, and miscellaneous other places do have free hotspots whereas some places like Barnes & Noble (until recently) you actually had to pay to be able to access the wireless hotspot.

Testimonial: "Thank you I am in midtown Manhattan large apt bldg and assumed there would be a large volume of hotspots (servers) to connect."

Why wont my brand new tablet find my hotspot so I can connect to the internet?

The make and model of the tablet is the important bit missing in this question. There may be a security setting to 'Enable Hotspots' as they can be a security issue allowing access to the device.

Our rj45 is reading no cell. what could be wrong?

I'm not sure what do you mean by "your rj45". If it's a model of a router, maybe you mean that you can't get connected you smartphone to the router?
Are you sure SETTING of your phone is activated?
With setting activated, take your phone to a hotspot - site where you have free Internet connection.
If still can't connect it, probably the WiFi adapter circuit (well, anything like that) of your cell phone is failing. an you shouls check it with an authorized repair service.
Ok, that's my idea. Actually you can input a google search for
SMARTPHONE WON'T CONNECT TO INTERNET and you'll get sume return like these, to make an idea about issue

My netgear G54/N150 wifi usb micro adapter wont connect to the internet

Your computer operating system makes the network choice. If you're using windows, look in the lower right-hand corner and you should see signal-strength bars like on your cell phone. Click on those bars and you should see a list of available wireless networks. Click on the network for your uverse router and choose "Disconnect." Then click on the network for your hotspot and choose "Connect." Then your computer should connect to your hotspot.

Routing problem on ZTE MF61

It sounds like the devices can't see the internet through your router, check the gateway IP address ... this should be listed on your devices serial number sticker on the back of the router..
also check your user name and password is listed with your ISP... this may be found in the admin menu via the search box for internet, usually something like 192.168.1.1
