Why can't I connect to my wireless network with WiFi when i'm not connected to my computer, like it would be nice if I go into the living room and I can check myspace w/o going back into my room and go on my computer, having my phone connected to my computer with internet is kinda pointless becasue my computer has internet lol,
Help GREATLY APPRECIATED..
Does it see your wireless router?
Have you connected wirelessly with any other computers?
when its not connected to my computer i creat a new connection and i try to connect to it and the connection i connect to on my computer flashes on the screen, so its there i guess i just cant get to it i guess, when its connected to my computer i can see 3 diffrent connections but when im not connected i can't..
If you are trying to connect wireless to a router with a titan it should be as simple as turning the wifi switch on.
also you need to change the power mode under settings connection.wirelesslan. power mode to best performance. nothing else works but best performance
Yes, it's set on best performance, and I have a Mogul 6800, I have my modem in my office, and my computer in my room, when I disconnect my phone form my computer the internet cuts off on my phone, when I try to connect when it's disconnected to my computer it says unavalible..

I've just managed to setup my wireless conection on the mini s and connected up to internet explorer.
When i was messing about the other day and couldn't get wireless working everytime i opened up IE it tried to connect via GPRS but failed (i don't want to connect through anything that i have to pay for!!)
Anyway today i reset machine, setup as corporate and played with my router settings and its connected upto wireless. Now i've gone into IE and it connected up to the webpage straight away.
Question is, it just connected straight in, so i want to make sure that i'm not on GPRS or anything, how do i do that?
Cheers
Sorry I'm a new user and have yet to connect to my wireless network but I thought you could just turn on flight mode and connect using just the pc side of the phone???
I think I have worked it out now. I am typing on the mini s now, great piece of kit! I have noticed that if you are on gprs (or its trying to connect through that) then a G appears where the connection icon is. that means I am happy because my wireless connection is working every time now and its not connecting through gprs!
i'm very new to this kind of stuff so can someone plz tell me if i can use the wifi feature on my qtek to pick up a wireless internet connection and have the phone connected to the computer through activesync simultaneously? cus i can't seem to make it work. everytime i try to connect the phone to the computer through activesync after i have had the wireless internet connected, the activesync seems to disconnect me from the wireless connection. so im just wondering if i can connect those 2 connections at the same time or not?
no you can't, sorry
Activesync tears down the wifi connection and builds a new conection using you PCs networking. You can still access the intenet through you PC though.
thanks
thanks for the quick reply. yeah i know i can access the internet through PC connection but the problem is that my wireless adapter is broken so i want to have my qtek pick up the internet and then use activesync to transfer the internet connection back to my computer so i can go online on my PC, thats all. so there is no way we can work it around huh?
I was trying to tether to my laptop today and it seems that my laptop does not see the USB connection. I set my phone to internet sharing and connection of usb and phone as modem I then press connect it goes out and connects to evdo then it says check usb cable connnection. I then plug into my usb cable. Nothing happens except my charging light comes on. I know my phone works as I just tried it out on my co-workers laptop same procedure same cable and it connects without issue. I just downloaded the wmodem.zip installed it same issue. I Also tried to connect it first before I go to internet sharing. It connects to active sync then I start the connection and active sync goes away but I get the same message on my phone "check usb cable connection".
Bluetooth?
I had the same problem with mine and the usb connection. I think it needs drivers. if you look in device manager you might see a device with out drivers. If your buddys works find out what driver it's using..
I just use bluetooth. it works great if you have it.
Figured it out. In my network connections window when my phone would connect it would appear here under LAN or high speed internet connection. but it was in a disabled state so I enabled it and works like a charm.
Thanks for everyones help!
is there someway i can plug my phone via usb into a computer and use the computers internet connection on the phone?
I believe that the far left icon is meant to be the data? then phone, then sound?
If i plug my phone in by usb all i get is a USB symbol.
I believe that im meant to get some sort of 2 arrows?
You'll be able to get the internet from pc on wi-fi connection to.
Here in my notebook I've shared the ADSL internet with wireless connection and I'm using the local web between my notebook and HTC to get the internet connection. It works perfectly!
when ever connected to activesync or the vista sync
the phone have full access to the network of the pc
unless you disabled it
Hi, I got a laptop without a wireless card for internet connection. So I've been using my HD2 as a USB wireless device, which gives me internet everywhere. THat very nice, and it works extremely well, however I got a question. WHen at home and at work I would like to connect to the wireless router, and not to my mobile internet, is that possible?
Because even tho i connect without problem to my own router at home, I cant really make my HD2 use that for my computer. Is it even possible?
nope... and that is the whole purpose of a wireless card, to pick up wifi signals from a router
It is possible.
Use ICS Control:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377047
Setup should be as follows:
public interface: BCMSDDHD1
private interface: RNDISFN1
Connect your HD2 to WiFi network, click "Start ICS" and plug the cable in to your PC. Should work If you have XP, you should kill Active Sync process first.
Thank you, however I'm not sure that I do everything correctly.
There's quite a lot of settings in that pieve of software, is all I have to edit really the public and private interface drop down boxes? Nothing else?
And when connection to wifi, shall i then just minimize ICS controls, go to phone settings and connect to wifi there?
Thank you
What you want is for your phone to connect to the internet through wireless connection, not your phone's data/internet connection?
If so, then it's definitely possible. Not only at home and work, but also at many wifi spots throughout the world. How you go about it depends on some things.
Does your home and/or work wireless router connect straight to the internet (such as a connection from the wireless router to a cable modem, etc.) ? If so, you only need to know how to connect with the wireless router and your phone should default to that connection for internet when your phone's wifi is turned on. You can always turn data connection off when you turn wifi on to make sure it goes through wifi.
If your wireless router does not connect directly to the internet but one of the computers on the router's network does, then you'll have to use Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) on that internet enabled computer as posted about above.
I want my phone connected to the wifi router, simple yes. However, then I want my phone to share the internet from the router, with a computer connected to the phone via usb cable.
So my phone will actually work as a wireless usb device, connecting to a wifi router.
