Hi,
i have strange problem with my htc 3600 and siemens wifi dsl router se568. My ppc connects to router but i can't ping router or access internet or any other computer on network. Strange thing is that my ppc connects to other wireless networks without problems. I tried 2-3 laptops and they connect to siemens router. Also i tried some other pocket pcs and they connect also to my siemens router. only combination that doesn't work is my htc 3600 and router.
Anyone has any suggestion how to solve it?
One more thing i use WPA-PSK TKIP encryption.

Ok found solution. For some strange reason when I put wifi preferences fon pda Best Performance it connects and works fine. When i return it to Best Battery it will not connect. Strange. Probably it is something with my wifi router.

Searched and searched, Has anyone had an issue with using the wlan SD8686 with WPA?
I can connect with no security and with WEP and I am able to browse the web.
I can still connect to the router using any of the WPA but can not get any pages to load in IE only works with wep or no security. 3 other laptops work fine.
Any idea? HTC Tech support no help.

I can't answer.. but that reminds me the WPA issue that I have with the HTC Touch ..... my Touch is unable to use any WPA ... when connected the touch just freeze .. and I have to soft-reset and hope to the Wireless not connecting before being connected before disabling the Wireless.
it seems that WPA or the wireless chip is really bad ... but don't know which one !
Shift works fine with WPA I am currently using TKIP+AES
I have had nothing but issues with my Shift and Belking N Router using WEP...
Sometimes it would connect, the majority of the time the shift couldn't see the network and it did connect it would lose connection. I tried it with WEP and also with no security and also with MAC address authentication only. Every 50 times I tried to connect, it would connect maybe once.
So, decided to use my old standard 54g Belking router. Guess what, no issue so far with no security applied. Was planning to try it with WEP later....

I live in US and unit was from UK think this could be a problem with WPA?
I have no problem with NO security and NO problem with WEP only with any type of WPA. Also searching the net, seems like the wirerless chip in the SHIFT not a very good track record, lots of driver issues

Can you tell me what the Driver VER No is on your shift tfor the network card?
My unit has the Marvell SD-8686
Wifi
I had problems, sometimes the shift could not find my network, sometimes it woeked.
after setting my dlink dir655 router in b/g moder rather than b/g/draft n mode all has worked so far.
ok guys i use linksys running open source dd-wrt v23 sp2 firmware; works great; i must admit i have not used the shift on other wifi network routers....
No connection
Hi,
maybe someone can help. Since yesterday I belong tot he proud owners. But, but, I can’t get a connection to the internet over my WLAN router.
Router Netgear WPNT834. Whatever I did no luck: either I get the message: limited connectivity or only local Zugriff connection something like that.
No problem with XP notebooks, but with Shift and Vista.
Has anyone an idea what causes the problem? Is it the router?
Do you know any router you can recommend: strong signal and reliability?
Thanks

No issue with WPA here
Hi Settembrini,
So you got your Shift from Amazon.de at the same time as they delivered mine after all
Regarding the WiFi connection to the router, it seems to be some routers / chipsets.
I am also using WPA (with a Siemens SX550i router) and it worked without any problems. The Shift detected an encrypted network with hidden SSID and after I entered the SSID and the encryption password it connected immediately and with a stable connection.
WLAN access
Hi mw65719
yes, more or less same time.
So what is the conclusion? It is my Netgear router WPNT834, why I do not get a connection? Need for a new router it seems!
Thanks!

Yes same here, I just bought the new Belkin N1 Vision router and all other equipment works but the Shift can't even see the the router. I just hooked a netgear router in series with the belkin and the Shift can now see the Netgear..... Was worried for a bit there.... Really annoyed about the shift not being able to see the belkin, the Belkin wasn't cheap.
Hi,
I was not able to establish a connection to my Netgear router WPNT834, then I tried the Speedport 700 V and it worked without any problems, no special settings in Vista neccessary.
I guess you have a different Netgear router than mine.

Hi all,
i am new here
I have problem with my Xperia.
When i connect with my phone to unsecured Wifi network everything works fine.
But when the wifi network is secured (WPA2), i cann't access the internet. (IP address is assigned, but ping to the router is without answer)
I have allready trying to set the IP address manualy, but without any success.
Can somebady help me please?
Thanks

Is the WLAN-SSID hidden? That often makes trouble with devices like Phones, Radios, MP3-Players or something else. If so try to activate SSID-Broadcast (unhide SSID) and connect again.
What does your phone show in it's wireless settings (IP, Gateway, Subnet, Encryption etc)?
On my Cisco router I use WPA2-PSK Authenication with AES-CCM Encryption. The SSID id is hidden. No problems at all....
Is your router using MAC Address filtering??
This will also make it unresponsive to pinging if it is Enabled
and your x1 in not on the permitted list!
good Luck.

hi,
now i use only MAC address filtering (without WPA2) and it works fine.
(SSID broadcast is enabled)
With activated security WPA2, MAC address filtering dissabled, SSID broadcast enable/disabled, it doesn't work
Tested with wifi router Belkin.
With HTC Diamond it works fine also with WPA2 secured network.(almost the same HW like the Xperia)
Tomorrow i will "play" a little bit with the router and phone settings.
It must works !!!
Note: i have observed the same problem/behaviour with nokia E66 (OS Symbian)
Hi,
Netgear Router.
WPA2 enabled.
MAC filtering on.
Broadcast Off.
Device added.
Browsing a doddle.
Des. . .
Deactivating the encryption nor use of wep is never a good idea.
Try to change to wpa-psk tkip.
I'm not sure what it could be, but there are some articles on the internet that WinMo phones (in general) have trouble using WPA or WPA2. WEP is apparently fine to use, but then again not secure.
I have a netgear, and using WPA/WPA2 (no MAC ACL) on my router with the Xperia doesn't work, but some of the other guys work fine
Try updating your Router Firmware (or making sure you have the latest firmware flashed to your Router) - this has been known to solve connection problems with new hardware e.g. Windows Mobile or PS3 or Wii.
Hi, is there anyone else who has problems getting a wifi connection on theyr hero using linksys routers? My Hero can't connect to the router under any settings. I have tried all possible settings on the router with and without security enabled. Has anyone got the same router and gotten a connection?

Do you use any special characters in your SSID(Networks name). Because I noticed that it was impossible to connect to my router that uses "ä" in the SSID.
Oh that might be it The SSID has a underscore in it Thank you my Hero
Hi all,
At my work we have a WiFi network with the following settings:
WPA2
PSK Auth
TKIP
WEP-104
The problem is, I can't connect with my HTC Tattoo. It shows the network as WEP and not as WPA2. My home network has WPA2 and I can connect to that one.
Does anyone have an idea to get this to work on my Tattoo? Or is there any update or app to solve this problem?
Many thanks!
