I can only see WEP in my Wifi setup, is there an update to enable WPA/2 encryption ?
I connect my p3600 to my WEP secured network, so i guess it sould work on p3600i too.
Hope that helps
yes WEP works ,but I'd like to change my home wifi to WPA as its more secure but looks like the phone doesn't support this protocol.
which is strange as I think this has been out for a few years , isn't this included in WM 6?
I'm using Lalle's latest Manila 2D ROM, and I got WPA as well as WPA2 available. I guess it depends on the ROM you're using.
Sorry I misstyped
I wanted to say:

Sorry for missleading
its funny u should be asking this im have big issues getting my spv m700 to connect to me belkin g mimo + router its set to wpa psk tkip and i cant connect it attempts to but no good just stops then comes up with a cross on me router name only way to get it to see me router as there again is to reset the phone.

any one else had this if so how was it fixed.
p.s i allso have a ipaq rx3715 does the same thing it wont connect to me router.

Hi!
I do have problem to connect the device (o2 xda mini S) to WLAN. It recognizes the network, asks for the WPA-PSK key and then attempts to connect - but fails.
If I configure the device with a static IP this IP shows up during the
connection process after a while but the device isn't connected anyway.
If I use DHCP I get no IP ever.
I also tried a very simple 8 alphanum character key.
What may be wrong here?
I hope you get an answer soon, because I have the same problem. Enter the key, then no connect. I also tried it with security turned off on the router, no connect. This thing connected every time before 2.26 ROM update.
bump - having the same issue

Hope there's a reply; having the same issue but I think it's router specific too. I am on Dlink DI-614+ and a friend of mine who has DI-524 (i think) has no problem connecting reconnecting.
if you figure out a way to get it to work, please PM me... I have not figured out this problem yet.
I might try to disable all of my router settings (WEP).. but that would only mess my already configured other devices up.
Stupid question, but is it a B/G router or is it configured to only do one of them ?
Well, I got it to work by disabling encryption and leaving the AP all open...
So, apparently the software has some WPA-PSK-related bugs
Same thing with 2.24a Mr.Clean. Open AP works fine, and any encryption messes the whole thing up. The connection is done, it even gets the IP - and continues to blink arrows and no data comes through.
Windows Mobile only knows TKIP but as I was using AES and wanted to continue using AES on the other machines I configured the router to provide "TKIP and AES". Well, this didn't work but TKIP only actually works now.
I've been having the same problems, could connect to unsecured networks, no problems. The thing would just refuse to connect to my home WLAN (Belkin 54G set to B/G), secured with WPA-PSK and TKIP data encryption. However, just updated the router's firmware from the Belkin website, and BINGO!!!! It found the router, I entered the key and immediately connected, fast too. Just try updating the firmware of your router!
I agree on the router upgrades. And some routers are just crap, sorry to say. I've had bad luck with Belkins and Netgears. Linksys and D-Link typically give me much less problems. You also need to make sure that you installed the registry settings to enable G networks on you device (of course)
I have a Sonicwall using WPA-PSK with no problems.
I personally like molski's tweaks to make the necessary registry settings on my device ... http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=58438
Hope I was of some help.
Hi!
I have a linksys WRT54G3G wireless router and has set it for WPA encryption on the wireless network. But my HTC TyTN (Hermes) wont connect to it.
If I just say yes on the connection dialog, choose internet and the punch in the WPA key the device hangs and I have to soft reset.
If I create a wireless setting for my network on before hand and then turn radio on my device only says connecting. But never connects to my network.
WEP works fine on the device. And my laptop connects without any problem to both the WEP and WPA encrypted networks.
Does anyone have an idea what's wrong and how I can fix it?
Best regards,

It's working for me...
HTC TyTN with Linksys WAP-54G.
I use WPA-PSK with TKIP. All is working.
I've just selected such a parameters in setup window in my TyTN, set the key and all started to work perfect.
Hi mikechannon!
Thanks for the threads! I haven't seen them, but unfortunealy they don't help much. I have MAC filters turned on. But I don't have the same router. May be that's the problem. I'll try contacting linksys support next week. My device works fine with WEP encryption. But I'd like to secure my network a little bit more...

hi,
I have had the same problem with my WRT54GS, and solved by choosing WEP security, but now after seeing this thread and following links I installed recent firmware from Linksys and... pronto! WPA / TKIP works smoothly. Thanks, folx.

OK US Robotics MAXG router. All set up, laptops etc working fine. I got the mini s and the xda2i working on it too.
Then i went and stuck the security on it
WPA2 and WPA (PSK)
TKIP and AES
entered all the correct stuff on the computers and working ok.
with both the XDA's it says trying to connect but wont.
I ve looked in the distruction books for both 2i and mini s but they just say you might need to enter some password!!!
so mini s and xda 2i settings are
general tab
network name 'xxxxxxxxx'
connects to 'the internet'
network key tab
authentication 'wpa-psk'
data encryption 'tkip'
network key 'correct entry for my sys'
key index 'greyed out'
802.1x tab
nothing changeable but set to
use ieee 802.1x net access control
eap type 'smart card or cert
they both sit there saying my network is available but wont connect.
anyideas whats going on??
Network Prob
I recall a similiar problem some time ago and as far as I can remember I solved it by changing the encryption to WEP. It's worth a try.
Cheers.
Phil C
cheers.... dont want to go to WEP as its crackable in under 5mins by a novice now!!
Seems a bit silly that the XDA's have the apparent ability to do this encription but then won't work.
Pete
Is WEP really that hackable??
heres the info i found on it.

worth a read.
I'm using the exact same router with the same wireless security config. While other clients can connect to the router using WPA or WPA2 with TKIP or AES encryption, my TyTN simply refuses to connect.
After some intensive trial/error, I figured out the problem to be the TyTN itself, which simply can't get associated with the router when both TKIP and AES is selected on the router. Changing the WPA encryption to TKIP only while keeping both WPA and WPA2 authentication on the MAXg router solved the problem (no need to use the less secure WEP encryption).
Hope this helps.

cheers, i have been playing with my settings too. I found that i had to change to WPA and TKIP only to get he Mini s to connect but hte 2i still wont The only thing i really use the connection at home for is to transfer files if im on the laptop rather than having to go to my main puter and plugging it all in. Its a pain as i tend to use the PDA's at work for stuff. Ill just have to get off my ass n go up stairs and do it now. Its a pain and it should work but im learning that these things aint all they should be

You bet it is, Try backtrack 2.0 is self booting linux build for "testing network security"
Ok I have Helmi's WM6 ROM and I am desperately trying to find a way to get the wireless functionality to connect to a router at work which *must* negotiate via WPA-PSK / AES.
Is there *any* way I can get my device to negotiate via AES, I can only see TKIP.
Thanks in advance
John
I have tried searching the forums for "AES" but no posts were returned, which is odd. I have also tried searching for encryption but there doesnt seem to be any relevant posts.
because i think that the device does not support it
Thanks xplode, I feared as much. One would hope that it would be possible in software, and that the wireless network layer would be upgradable via software.
Which router do you have? Most of them can be set up to allow either AES or TKIP or a combination of both...
PoGa
Poga,
I can connect to my router at home without any issues whatsoever, however it is the router at work that I can not connect to. I have no control over the authentication methods of the router, and the sysadmin will not change the protocols to suite my wireless tastes.
Ho hum
I've recently upgraded my BA to WM6, and without making any changes to my wifi router (Netgear DG834G v3), it now will NOT connect! I was and still am using WPA/TKIP security.
Previously on the original vanilla Orange SPV M2000 WM2003SE o/s it connected fine.
Interestingly, if I disable all wireless security on my router, the BA connects up just fine.
Downgrading back to WM2003SE does not restore WPA/TKIP connectivity to my router.
I've tried a couple of Helmi's WM6 roms and am currently running DVH's WM6 5.60.01 build 18548 with the same frustrating results.
All my WM6 upgrades on my HTC Tytn (SPV M3100) don't have any issues with wifi connectivity. Odd...
I'm pretty sure it's not the router as I've tried it with a 2Wire ADSL access point too and it's the same.
Any ideas guys?
Same thing is happening to me... No WPA connectivity.
No security in router and all OK
WPA on BA
Actually the devise supports it! But there are no drivers!
As I had WM5, WPA-PSK worked fine, but in WM6 it is not implemented...
Just a question, would it be possible to import and use WM5 drivers and what esle necessary, from WM5 to WM6?
In WM5 It worked OK thats right!!
Is the drivers the answer to the problem?
the drivers we use in any WM6 rom are from WM5 so it is understandable to not work quite well
here WPA-PSK with TKIP encryption is working just fine - my router is Linksys WRT54GC
AES encryption is not supported by the BA WLAN Driver
The hardware of the BA dor Wifi ins't the same as any other PDA device?
Can we copy the drivers from another device to our beloved BA?
i don't think so, if it was that easy my roms would not have wlan issues at all
nice one xplode!! dum coment
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
Settembrini
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!
S.
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.
