So can you connect to your email using a browser from where you are ?
Safari or Firefox :
Should be log in option on page at <http://www.it.net.au/web/>
Also
IN Firefox - Preferences - Advanced - Network - Settings
what do you have ?
IF you have a proxy setting , it is probably set for your usual ISP
access ,
changing to Direct Connection may get over your blockage ???

Hi All
Can someone please advise me on a slight problem I may have with my
macbook pro being unable to connect to pages (or mail) when
connected to an internet cafe wireless network? I live in Busselton
and have tried one here and one in Dunsborough when I needed to
check my email while out of the house. both show being connected in
the airport pull down menu, but when I open firefox I just get '
cant connect to server' msg. when I open mail it tries for a few
minutes then stops
Do I need to change something in system prefs or with firefox and
mail?
Thanks for any help, as Im due to go to Capetown for an important
conference and would like to be able to check my emails while there
using the wireless network at the hotel but am worried it wont work
there either. I have spoken with the guys at apple Joondalup and
they were not sure about this
kind regards
chris
