Guys,
I have had my wing for almost a year. The WiFi has always worked. Something strange is happening to my wing now that I can't quite explain. Now when I try to connect via wifi, it connects to my router, but no IP adress. What's worse, when it does connect to my network, my laptop's connection gets screwed up. The laptop no longer can connect to the wifi network.
I changed the IP address on the laptop so that it isn't in the DHCP range thinking that the router is just giving the same IP adress twice. No dice. It's just weird since I had this exact same setup working a week or two ago. Obviously, I've soft reset the device. I would like not to have to hard reset the phone. It's almost as if the Wing is messing up the rest of the network.
Any ideas?

hi, i have a wierd problem, when i use wi-fi at home my connection gets blocked without any reason, router is linksys but it was same with 3com
all settings are ok and many time i can connect internet without happen but some times connection just get blocked and i cant even ping local pcs, in the other hand the other wireless works just fine
is there anyone having smilir issuse?
right here is another info, i can actually browse or connect to ip adresses on the internet but only dns translation creates problem and i reckon its in the wm2005, any help?
Since upgrading from a XDAii to a xda exec, I have been having huge problems getting active sync to connect to it.
It does, but only when it feels like it.
I'm using the latest version.
Is there anything I am doing wrong?
I have a wizard, and noticed since upgrading to the latest ROM that AS was a bit dodgy, ie sometimes it would connect and other times not...
What i found out was that if my laptop was NOT connected to the wireless network, then AS would NOT connect to my wizard. But when i was connected to a wireless network AS connected ok to my phone.
It appears that the PC you are connecting to, has to have an IP address, ie connected to a network, for AS to determine what IP address to give to the phone. Otherwise AS just keeps searching and not being able to connect.
I could be wrong but this is what i found out and works for me all the time now.
I don't think this is the probelm with mine.
I have a fixed IP address, on my PC and I am using cat 5 connection not wireless.
Hello to all
I have problems trying to connect through wifi on my new 8125.
After reading a lot of threads, i downloaded a program called hitchiker, who solves the wifi connection a lot easier and faster, but i keep getting the same error, the wifi connection appears, it connects but can not solve the ip address with the dhcp server and fails...
Can anyone told me if this is a hardware problem or a firmware issue?
my router is a netgear WG602 v2 with the last firmware available.
Thanks and happy new year to all!!
ddo you have mac filtering on? if so try turning it off
No, i used to have a wep security password, but i reset all settings on the router to factory, to try to connect.
i also have a laptop and a psp and both connect great!!
dont know what the problem is here, but its frustating...
I make it to work
first i did a hard reset, then i check on the log of the access point, and it was going through and forwarding the connection to the adsl router, but the problem apparently was on the dhcp server on the router.
i add a fixed ip, and now it works
still not working on dhcp but at least its working...

I'm having almost the same problem.
First I've tried to connect on my open lan in my house. I could connect, but couldn't get an IP automaticaly.
Today I went to the mall to try some open wifi lan. A friend of mine, with a Nokia n80 succsessfully connected with one of the hotspots. I've tried and couldn't get an IP. Suddenly, don't know why, I got connected, but couldn't surf at the web.
Then I realized that the fixed Ip that I've set before was still on. Changing it for dinamic didn't work.
So, I still can't get an IP.
Any Ideas?
Hey Guys....I'm new to this forum, and it's already been a great help to keep my wizard going!
I have a new problem, that I'm not sure how to approach...I'm using IPL/SPL 3.08 + 2.71 Radio on the T-Mobile version of 5. (I'm at&T tho...)
Whenever I try to wi-fi into my home network, it finds my network, and tries to connect, but never gets an IP address assigned to it. I know it's not a hardware issue, because I've connected to other networks in the past.
I'm pretty sure there's a configuration problem some where (I'm using WPA security, but I couldn't connect even when the wireless was wide open) but I don't know if the configuration problem is on my router or on my phone. Any ideas??
Thanks for the awesome forum!!
Can you get hold of a laptop or another wireless device and see if this connects to your kit at home?
If it does then you know you have a problem with the phone, if not then it's the wireless router.
Yeah, I have a couple other wireless devices that connect wirelessly to the network already + I connected my phone to my parent's wireless a few hours ago...so it's gotta be the router, but I don't know what I have to change. Any ideas?
I myself have the same problem, I can connect, and MAYBE look at one or two pages, my phone then loses the IP and never re-leases it from the router....I aswell have other wireless devices that connect fine(such as this laptop that im typing this on lol)
Phone specs:
Cingular 8125
TNT 6.1 Pro/with TouchFREE
IPL/SPL 2.26.olip
SIM Unlocked
I have the same problem. phone connects and gets an IP but as soon as i try to go on the Internet, it stops working and then eventually tries to dial a connection.
I wonder if a static IP address would work for these issues?
Could you update the phone's Wifi profile for your router to a static address instead of a DHCP address then configure the router not to lease the phone's IP address to any other device.
any idea where to set static IP/DHCP on the wizard running 5.1?
Hi all,
I used to connect to my Vigor 2900Gi wifi router with my S4 without any issues. Today I reset the router to factory defaults, reconfigured, used the same SSID, but different password and I wasn't able to connect to it anymore. I tried to forget the network, restart the phone, restart the router, but nothing. All other devices at home connected without any problems (win7 laptop, macbook, ipad, iphone). I decided to try with new SSID, so I reconfigured the router again. This time I was able to connect with the S4, but had a problem with the windows laptop. So, I reconfigured for 3rd time, completely new SSID. Now I'm not able to connect with the S4 again. I see the network, but it gives me "Authentication error occured". I am 100% sure the password is correct. I tried to forget the the network again and everything, but still no go.
Can anyone help, please? It's really frustrating
(And i still have the problem with the windows laptop anyway)
