That's it, basically. It says it can't connect to the server, or lost signal, but it's been over a week, I tried changing my port settings and nothing, and I know it's not hotmail or google as I'm still receiving and sending fine on my other devices. Thanks for any suggestions!
Are you saying it doesn't work since you went to a wired connection? The "switched to ethernet" is a little confusing.
I think so... I'm in a student residence and there's no wifi, you plug into the wall with an RJ45 and pay the internet subscription...
You might want to check with your university and ask if there's anything special you need to set up with your email accounts. They may have some ports blocked or something. If you were able to get it on wireless, the accounts are set up correctly.
Have you made sure that there is no certain Proxy settings required or anything? Are you able to access the internet but just your Mail accounts wont work?
Able to access internet but mail accounts won't work. Haven't checked about proxy settings, how do I do that? It's all done through a third company that the uni has nothing to to do with. They have a basic website and seemingly no easy way of contacting them...
It's all done through a third party and there's nothing on their website about it. Uni can't give me any details - the residence is separate from the university.
Have you tried accessing your mail accounts through a Web Browser?
It is very weird that the internet would work but not the Mail Accounts. I would try to delete and re-add all of your internet accounts to see if that works.
Is there anything in the provider's support section? Usually they'll tell you if you need to do something unusual to work on their system.
Their website is pretty basic. Plus it's in French. (I'm in France). http://www.myneo.fr/icm_welcome.php?r1=1
I looked. You're right, it is pretty basic. I did see a contact by email option. If I were you, I'd find a local wireless spot and see if everything still works through there, as you say you've made some changes. Then I'd send them an email and ask what's up. It should work on wired if it works on wireless.
Ok thanks I'll give that a go.
Since I switched to ethernet, Mail neither receives or sends with my google and hotmail accounts. The internet works though.
