If you can connect to the wireless network but nothing appears when you open your web browser make sure you have your wireless network card configured for DHCP. If it is already configured for DHCP try rebooting your device to force your bindings to refresh. Or you can use the following method:

* On most Windows machines perform the following to release and refresh your DHCP IP address.

1. Go to START --> RUN

2. Type command (Windows ME or earlier) or cmd (Windows 2000, XP or Vista)

3. When the command line box appears type ipconfig /release. After that completes in a few seconds type ipconfig /renew. This may take up to a minute to complete. After completing these steps you can view your new IP Address by typing ipconfig at the prompt. The output of the command should appear something like the following.

Windows 98/NT/2000 Users

Windows operating systems prior to XP do not have a built-in Wi-Fi configuration tool. These operating systems depend on vendor software to operate properly. Please refer to the operating instructions that came with your device. You can use the step-by-step instructions for Windows XP users as a general guide

Macintosh Users:

Macs with AirPort cards installed usually require little or no configuration. You will need to set your AirPort card to select the "HotSpotBroadband" network. See the AirPort card documentation for specific instructions.
