Why can’t I browse the Internet when I have Hotspot Shield VPN connected?.How do I know if Hotspot Shield is working?.How do I fix Hotspot Shield that went wrong?.Why does Hotspot Shield keep disconnecting?.How do I clear my Hotspot Shield cache?.One of my friends has a Mac running with Leopard, and he has no problem connecting to the network, and neither do the windows user. I had a similar problem before upgrading to Snow Leopard : I could connect once to this open network, but then if I closed the lid of the computer, and then reopen it after a while, it wouldn't connect and I had to restart it entirely.
I am using the 10.6.2 version of Mac OS and I already checked that all the available updates are installed. I know the problem doesn't come from the hardware because I can connect without any problem to my wireless network at home. Of course, I tried disabling and enabling Airport, and renewing the DHCP, but I always get this auto-assigned IP address. I get the auto-assigned IP address and all. The exact same thing happens whan I connect to the network using the Ethernet cable. This occurs with Automatic DHCP for IPv4, and whether IPv6 is in Automatic or in Disabled setting. The thing is that I can't event connect to this network… it says "Airport has an auto-assigned IP address 169.254.143.75 and won't be able to connect to the internet" (my computer is in french so my translation may vary from the english message). Then you get full internet access (web, skype,…) You're supposed to connect to this network without entering any weep or pa key, than you get to a page where you login with your school information. I need to access an open network at my school. I'am not really a Mac pro cause I used to be a Windows user (yeah I know) and I never really got any problems with my Mac so please explain clearly if you have a solution for me! I have had my MBP for 6 months, it came with Leopard, and in November I upgraded to Snow Leopard (with someone else's CD that I can't get back do please don't tell me to do a clean Snow Leopard install). I guess somebody else has already had that problem (or I would really be the unluckiest person in the mac world), but I can't find any solution to it, so PLEASE help me!
