help needed to connect mda vario to wi-fi

i have been trying to get my mda vario to connect to my aol wi-fi network for over 2 weeks.
i searched xda-developers.com and found a few usefull things but i still can't get my mda vario to connect to my wi-fi network
can sum1 plz help me, i'm goin mad here

Hello, did you mean your home Wi-fi network? If so I did have the same problem before, and now everything seems OK.
What I did was:
1. Upgrade the phone to the Qtek newest ROM (though I'm not sure if this is imperative).
2. Settings -> Connections -> Network Cards -> click SDIO WLAN Wireless Adapter, then roll down the option above "My network card connects to" -> The Internet -> OK
3. Turn on Wi-Fi, maximum Power Mode for best performance (at least to test).
--> The wireless connection should be established, given you've entered network key of your Wi-Fi network if there's any.
--> Run IE to test, in my case it should start connect to the internet without any problem.
Hope this helps,
PPB

i tried that (except upgrading the rom)
everything was goin fine.
i enterted the net work key
but then a message came up about "uable to obtain server assigned ip address. try again later or enter an ip address in network settings"

Hi,
Did you do so while connected with you PC? If so try remove the ActiveSync cable.
IP should usually be automatically assigned by your Wi-Fi router.

Problems findind WLan with tytn

I have a vodafone 1605 and there is something weird happening. When I turn on the Wlan to find my wireless network, the phone find the current network, but the phone can´t connect to the network. The IP showed in the phone ( 169.254.25.138) is not from the range of the IP´s I´ve assumed ( 192.168.0.1 to192.168.0.100 ). How can I make the phone connect to my network ??

i met this problem when i change my wifi wep, i just reset/del old connection profile, and the system ask me to reconfig if it detect new wlan
control panel -> connections -> Network Cards -> Wireless tab
you'll see detected wlan, tap&hold to del its config profile
hope it work for you

WIFI Internet Connection

Hi guys,
I've got a netopia router (Irish "eircom" broadband) and while normal internet connections via laptop or PC (with USB Wifi dongle) work fine I just can't get my XDA Mini S to actually access the internet. I have managed to actually get it to connect via WIFI however when I launch internet explorer and click on a link it says it can't access using this connection.
"Can't connect with current connection settings. To change you connection settings, tap Settings".
Under connections I'm not sure what to select as I don't believe I need to setup a modem connection or VPN - am I wrong here??
It shows "connected" in the WIFI settings, indicating my SSID etc. Could someone advise me on what else I need to set. Basically I'm obtaining an IP address and my laptop etc work fine, just wondering what more I need to do to bash internet explorer into submission on the XDA. Is is just me or are Microsoft making this very hard on the normal user..
Start--> settings -->Wireless Lan
SSID is correct.. i.e my Wireless LAN
Mode : infrastructure
BSSID is set (though I don't know what this indicates)
TX Rate :auto
Channel :7
Start--> settings -->Wireless Lan - Advanced Tab
Status : Associated to Network
MAC number given
IP address given (so I guess DHCP is working fine)
Leap tab and Enroll tab - all settings blank.
------------------------------------------------
Start --> settings --> system --. Network cards
SSID shows Connected
Under Network Adapters tab : My network card connects to the Internet.
Adapter NE2000 Compatible Ethernet Driver. (not sure what difference this makes????)
I temporarily disabled WEP for the purposes of simplifying things.

Simple yet very annoying problem:
Go to Settings->connections->connections->advanced->network selection and make sure both combos read 'My ISP'.
Then, when connecting to your WiFi network select 'This network connects to the internet' (as I understand you already have this set under 'network adapters' so it should be ok).

THANK YOU!

USB to wifi dongle

I've got a USB to WiFi dongle , D-LINK DWL-G122 , and I want to use with my PC so i wiil be able to connect my JASJAM anywhere in my home. I've intall it on my PC with no problems. Do someone know how to config the PC ? Do I need to config anything on the JASJAM ? I have no router involves .

You need to configure ad-hoc connection

Ad Hock is done , but still no connection
I'v done so but i'm getting No connection at Wireless Network Connection 3.
Also Windows Small Office Network Wizad mention that . Any ideas how to make my D-LINK DWL-G122 connect ?

Since you've got no router in your set up, you need to set your phone's wireless network connection to only use ad-hoc connections too - go to Start | Settings | Connections tab | Wi-Fi. On that screen, change the "Networks to Access" option to "All available" or "Only computer to computer".
Then you'll need to give your phone a fixed IP address in the same range as your PC; tap the Network Adapters tab, then tap the adapter that is highlighted (it will mention 802.11 and Wi-Fi in the name somewhere!). Tap on the "Use specific IP address" and then enter one in the box below - if your PC is using e.g. 192.168.0.2, then set your phone to 192.168.0.22, set the subnet mask to 255.255.0.0 and the default gateway to your PC's IP address (you can find your PC's IP address by opening a command prompt and type "ipconfig" - in case you didn't know!).
That should get you most of the way there....can't think of anything else myself, but I'll post again if anything else springs to mind
Mark.

OK - it is working now
Thnx for your help

Using your 6800 as a Modem for your Wireless Router

ive had my cable shut off for a few months now and have been tethering my 6800 to my laptop and PC for internet access. recently, a buddy of mine needed to download a large app on his iphone which required being connected to a wireless network. my router was still on for networking purposes but did not have an internet connection. then i discovered an incredibly simple way to use the data connection from my phone as an internet line for my modem, effectively adding internet access to my wireless router and allowing his iphone, my laptop, my ps3, and PC, all to connect to the internet. i thought this maybe useful for others, so here's how to do it:
Requirements:
XV6800 (or any WinMo phone) with tethering enabled
PC/Laptop w/ LAN connection
1) Create a Dial-up connection for your phone, if you haven't already.
2) Connect to DUN
3) Open Control Panel --> Network Connections
4) Right-click your DUN and select Properties
5) On the 'General' tab, highlight your modem and click Configure, then set the Maximum Speed to 921600 and click OK (not required, seemed to increase speeds though)
6) On the 'Advanced' tab (XP) or 'Sharing' tab (Vista), enable the checkbox for 'Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet Connection' and click OK
7) Check the Status of your Local Area Connection. The IP address should now be 192.168.0.1
8) On your Wireless Router, move the LAN cable from its input jack into the 'Internet' jack.
9) You should see the internet activity light on your router light up and you are good to go!
NOTE: after sharing the DUN connection with your LAN, the IP settings for the LAN connection are set to a static IP of 192.168.0.1. You will have to change the IP settings back to 'Obtain IP address automatically' in order to have your LAN connection working properly again.

You can also get WMWifiRouter. It will uses the phones wifi to create an ad-hoc network and can tether via USB too. Version 0.89 is cooked into a few roms as it was one of the last free versions.
I have a Cradlepoint CTR-350 that I have been using so that I can connect with my PS3 and not need to set up connection sharing on my PC.

I've been using WMwifirouter as well. Have it on our Titan (xv6800) which my niece uses now. Had it on my HTC Touch Pro. And now I have it on my HTC Touch Pro 2.
I like the original posters idea alot too incase you didn't want to fork out $30 for the latest wmwifirouter software.

ah but as also indicated the last free versions work fine and do the same thing. I love using it on the go in my vehicle. My wife surfs the net while I drive on long trips.
