How do I fix a Ryoko hotspot that says Connected without internet?
Answer
Restart the Ryoko, reconnect your phone or laptop to its Wi‑Fi, then confirm in the Ryoko app or portal that the plan is active and assigned to this device.
Follow these steps
Restart the Ryoko
Power the Ryoko off completely, wait about 30 seconds, then turn it back on and wait until its normal ready lights or status return.
You should see: The hotspot finishes booting and broadcasts its Wi‑Fi network again.
Reconnect your phone or laptop
Forget or disconnect from the Ryoko network if needed, then reconnect with the correct Wi‑Fi password and open a simple website.
You should see: Either internet works, or Connected without internet appears again consistently.
Verify the plan is active for this device
Sign in to the Ryoko app or portal and confirm the data plan is active and assigned to this exact Ryoko, especially if you bought it recently or just topped it up.
You should see: You see an active plan on this device, or you see that the plan is expired, pending, or linked to a different unit.
Refresh the connection after plan confirmation
If the portal shows the plan just became active, restart the Ryoko once more and reconnect your device.
You should see: Web pages load over the Ryoko Wi‑Fi, or the portal status makes clear that carrier support is still needed.
