iPhone and Hotspot = Half a page then quits

Tue Jul 29, 2008 7:50 am

Ok,

I like to use my iPhone for troubleshooting because its right at hand, but lately I can only authenticate then get about 1/2 page before something kills the download.

I have looked at firewall issues and tried to monitor with Torch, but nothing seems obvious.

I have other Mikrotik APs without Hotspot running and the iPhone works fine.

Anyone else notice this?

Yeah, I tested with a virgin Hotspot server (ie one I just created with a spare MT) and it does work!?

I did not clear cookies on my iPhone.

Uhmmph...

What is it about my production Hotspot MT that give me no joy?

You mentioned clearing the Host list - I noticed that I got 2 addresses for the 1 MAC address listed there - is that goofing up the device?

Normis,

Didn't I see you wielding an iPhone in Chicago?

Could you put in a word to the developers - PhoneBox! Winbox for the iPhone.
(Or better yet native Dude with Google maps support.)

I can hope can't I?
