Static Google maps via iPhone connected to AT & T wireless network not working

Recently, I had problems removing static cards on my iPhone when connected to the AT & T wireless network. But when I connect to the local Wi-Fi, everything is fine.

For several hours last Sunday, work ceases, and then it starts working until the end of the evening, and today I see that it stops working again.

I just use the Safari browser to verify that I can load a static map, it returns a quota that exceeded the image. But I did not exceed the quota.

http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/staticmap?center=40.703049,-74.010695&zoom=16&format=jpg&sensor=false&size=512x512&maptype=roadmap

Does anyone have another problem? I reproduced the issue with several other Apple devices that are connected to the AT & T wireless network.

Thank!

This is a known issue . This is because mobile providers route all Internet requests through multiple static IP addresses. Handsets are terminals within their own internal network (and usually have an IP address of 10.nnn), and all traffic is routed through external proxies.

There is no other way than

  • convince Google of AT&T proxy whitelisting
  • convince AT&T to use more proxies
  • vote with your feet to use a service provider that has more proxies.
