Hello all,
I've been searching trough this forum without finding the answer,
I've just bought a HD2 Leo and when I connect this little jewel to my wifi network, it works well for a few seconds (minutes sometimes) and then disconnect automatically.
It also create a conflict with my computers in the network..
I've changed the IP address for my computers, for my HTC, it doesn't change anything.
My removed the security (WEP) of the network just in case, it doesn't change anything.
I've allocated the DNS address of my Internet connection but doesn't change either.
(Yes, i've turn the mode to "best performance" )
Does somebody have the solution, it's really annoying having this HTC to surf on the net and not possible to surf more than 30 sec.
Many thanks for your help
What do you mean it creates a conflict? A conflict like 2 systems having the same ip-address?
Are you using DHCP or static ip's?
In my experience, the hd2 always gets 192.168.1.147. So make sure none of your pc's take that ip.
Hi,
I tought it was that, a conflict between 2 devices having the same IP address, that's why I allocated an IP address for every device (computer, HTC,...).
When I talk about a conflict, I say it disconnect the internet connection to my PC as well.
I'm using DHCP (no static IP).
do you have something ?
try updating the radio rom if you just bought the phone otherwise maybe you need to exchange.
I've changed it to Leo_RADIO_2.07.50.27_2 is it the latest ?
anyone another idea ?
it's really anoying, I cannot use skype or another voip call because it's running 1 min maximum, no youtube,...
I have the same problem since i have installed the rom 1.66 NL
same problem here. Only time I didn't have this issue (or at least did not notice it ) was when I was still running the original Dutch 2.04 stock rom.
I've tried all Energy roms and used wifimonster. I have good to excellent signal upon connection and then, after a few seconds the complete signal falls away.
Returns a few seconds later and I regain good to excellent connection.
I repositioned my wifi router to a more open place, thinking the issue was related to that but it doesn't matter.
I tried the Wifi N setting, having a Linksys/cisco WRT610N router but it makes no difference either.
Suggestions well appreciated!

up,
it seems that I'm not the only one,
(maybe a stupid question, are you all from Belgium ? because I can see that DicEvsTytnII have proximus).
any help ?

Hi,
My mini s seems to have a problem connecting to my home network. When i switch the wi fi on it searches but does not connect. I hard reset a coyuplke of day ago and switch on the wifi and it found my network then promted to enter key, which i did. The phone then connected no problem. No when i switch wifi on it doesnt connect. I go into network cards tab and look what networks are available and my network is there with available next to it but the options have all change (key be given out auto etc...) so i change them to the correct ones etc.. but still it doesnt connect? What i'm i doing wrong? I has worked in the past but not now. I have not installed and 3rd party software and my router is working fine (laptop downstairs works no problem off network).
any ideas
cheers
hi,
i just reseted my router and renamed my homenetwork and assigned a newwep key. started wifi on mini s and it connected straight away to the my newly named network. switch wifi off then on again and now it wont connect. it see's the network and says its available but wont connect. under the settings the network key has changed. it's defo a problem with the phone cus everything else works fine (laptop, psp). it's just not saving the network info???
and ideas???
cheers
think it could be because i've upgraded to o2 new rom??? Could somebody with the latest UK o2 rom please confirm that ther can connect to the networ?
cheers
This also happens to me with the latest O2 ROM.
What you have to do is to manually connect and perservere by going to Network Cards, tapping the network and then select Connect. It may take a few go's but it will connect eventually.
Report back how you get on.
You may want to set up your router to assign a fixed IP address to the Mini S's MAC address as well.
Sounds like the problem I've been having. I've also got an O2 rom and am having problems connecting to any wifi network, even though it worked fine the first time.
I've tried going to the network cards page and clicking connect, but it hasn't worked so far. talkingbollox - when you say 'eventually', how long are you talking?
I'll also try assigning a fixed ip address later, but my hopes aren't high.
when you say 'eventually', how long are you talking?

Sometimes 2 attempts, sometimes up to 20.
Persevere!
20! I probably tried about 10 times before I gave up. Surely this is a fault. You shouldn't have to waste so much time just to get a connection! :x
I tried MAC address filtering too but that didn't seem to work.
Do you think this is a O2 ROM problem or a hardware problem? If it's just O2, I think I might try a different ROM. Any suggestions which ROM to use?
My Mini S came already with the latest rom I think, and it works fine with my router (BT Voyager 2110)
Are you guys using the 802.11g reg edit?? Maybe thats why its not working, I actually did the hack before I ever turned on my wifi so I don't know if it worked without it. Try it My wizard connects with my router in G only 8)
Search the forum you will find loads of posts about it, and I think somebody has even made a cab file that does it for you, along with some speed tweeks that make your system faster.
It must have taken me in excess of 40 goes to connect last night.
Yes, I am using the g mode hack. My Voyager 2100 is set to broadcast in both b and g (i.e. mixed) mode.
I had the same problem... what I did was just entering the dns adress of my router.
So the ppc doesn't wait for the dhcp server to asign it .. it works great when surfing at home !!!
Hello, since some time now I'm experiencing a wierd wifi connection behavior:
When I connect over wifi to my accesspoint everything goes well. It connects right away.
Also when I open IE and go to any site. It does download and display the site normally. But that is where the problem begins. It does this only for the first request. After that, there is no communication over wifi possible anymore. I cannot click on a link or change to any other website anymore. I cannot download mail, even cannot Ping (with vxUtil).
Other scenario:
I connect, download my email, after it gets done downloading, again.. it does not work anymore, neighter IE, nor download email again.. it always keeps trying to connect but aborts after a minute or so.
To make it work again, I always have to disconnect, and connect again, it then works for another request. Then again disconnect- connect... and so on.
Kinda enoying!!
Another scenario:
vxUtil, make a ping and keep on pinging. Works fine until I interrupt the ping. When I then try to ping again, it only gets timeouts again.
The Wifi connection is well during all of this, no drops no anything. The reception is excellent... it doesn't matter if I'm right next to the AP or a little farther away.
I remember that I didn't have this problem with my original Qtek ROM, after I changed to the Dopod ROM, this appeared somehow. Now I just flashed that MobiWiz custom rom with AKU 2.3, hoping it would solve the problem. ... well, it didn't.
In my wireless Lan I use WEP encription with a 26char HEX key; auth: open (not shared key). Setup is with DHCP and static IP the same... tried both, no difference. I have two Linksys APs with the newest firmware on them. Doesn't work with neighter of them.
Well, I searched a long time for a solution, but didn't really know what to look for, there is many things that come up when I search for "wifi" or "connection" and "problem", so I'm sorry if already someone wrote about this, please just post me the toppic...
Thank you guys very much, hope someone can help me!
My ROM info:
ROM version: 2.15.13.27 WWE
ROM date: 3/9/06
Radio version: 02.30.21
Protocol version: 4.1.13.16
ExtRom version: 2.15 AKU2.3 PDAMobiz Edition
Try to play with the power mode of WiFi. It could help.
Found the Problem
OK, I guess I found the reason for the problem.
As I wrote, I have 2 Access Points, one acting as a Repeater. Well... I guess the Prophet didn't like his Packets to be repeated, might have gotten them twice (from the first and then from the second AP). Anyways, so as soon as I switched off the repeating one, it worked again.
Still... kinda wierd, because my Laptop doesn't have a problem with it.
having just had to set up my new network at home i was reading up on using a second unit as a repeater. It mentiond that you have to tell one of the access points (think it was the main unit) how many hops you have in the system. This is to prevent 'system loops' or something. Sorry im not massive on this sort of thing but sounds like your problem.
Mine is i set the system up, main puter, 3 laptops, xda mini s and xda2i. all worked, added mac filtering all fine, added WPA PSK with TKIP security. Main puter and 3 laptops work fine. Both the XDA's sit there saying network available or connecting. but they never connect.

Lately I have been reading many post related to Wifi problems in the HD. I had the same. Even I was very near my router I couldn't connect to the net and the signal was very weak.
So I entered my router configuration and I found a solution.
Before, for security options I had: WPA-PSK [TKIP] then I changed to WPA2-PSK [AES] (of course you also have to change your HD connection configuratoin), and now it works great¡¡¡¡
Now I have all the bars for the signal and I can connect very easily.
Hope it works for other people
I have a similar WiFi connectivity problem, but after reading of the poor service provided by most vendors and HTC itself, I will try to gather some more experience with the problem before I contact HTC or my vendor, and hopefully find a solution. Bellow is my experience so far:
I own an HTC Touch HD since January and have a similar problem, only it surfaced last week. Before I had only used the WiFi connectivity briefly. The problems started after I installed an AP on my house expressively for the new PDA. The node is fully open and set to B/G/N protocols.
After a couple days of medium (couple hours per day) use the WiFi connection suddenly quit, the device would try to connect (the top bar showing the WiFi connection animation continuously) and after a few moments gave up with a dialog box stating the current network settings were wrong (even thou they worked fine a few hours earlier).
I tried several hot and cold resets, but only solved the problem after flashing a new ROM; even then the same symptoms reappeared after a couple of days of regular use. Again no re-setting would cure the problem, and now not even flashing the ROM again would work. Nonetheless, some hours latter the WiFi would connect perfectly with the same nodes it refused to before, and in very short time.
I have witnessed this cycle twice and have yet not been able to find a trigger for it, but will keep my eyes open for any tell tale signs, and post any findings here.
I could add to the above mentioned problems.
i got a new hd just few days back.
The wifi worked great. But now it doesnt.
I have disabled wifi, so can start it whenever i require.
I click on wifi button to enable it.
Then open opera, try any website.
it will open fine.
For instance say my email at gmail.com
Now after that if i try to open anysites or even continue with my mail, it shows error saying connection not available.
One of the workaround is to go back to toggele wifi off and switched it on.
Not sure if anyone faces a similar issue.
I's been about a week since my last post and I have already witnessed a couple of cycles of WiFi connecting perfectly and then not connecting at all.
No matter the settings I try after it decides not to connect, it won't. Even to nodes it had connected perfectly and fast jus minutes before.
I thought re-flashing might help but so far has proven ineffective. Once I thought some part of the non-volitile memory was causing the problem since after I cleared the memory I could connect for a while.
Any thoughts anyone?
Same problems here.
For the last hour I have been reading 10ths of threads here concerning WiFi problems.
My HD's WiFi worked fine on my home and outside for about 2 months. Now it doesn't. It reports connection, but no program can use the internet. At best, it seems to be able to exchange some Kbytes the for just a few seconds after a connection is established. Then nothing. Connected but unusable.
Tried everything Internet/My Work/My ISP, WAP enabled/disabled, soft/hard reset, everything.
When connected through ActiveSync everything works fine, all programs see internet.
Has anybody taken their HD to the service? Has any HTC service worldwide identified the problem as hardware and solved it by replacing something?

I have just encountered a similar problem, but already used wpa/wpa2 with aes. Have tried a hard reset with no joy. My old HTC Touch has no probs connecting via wifi nor does my laptop so I would surmise that the prob is with the HD and not the router.
I am going to try flashing with the latest version of Duttys 6.1 rom and see what gives.
Edit: Tried flashing with new rom with no success. Take a look at this post.

There are a couple of files to download but i only used the second ie this one.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1363759&postcount=2
Now no problems and can connect via wifi no probs, ip address assigned by dhcp.
Try to go into WiFi settings and move the power slider to max performance. I need to do it here to access my router. This happened also with my HTC TyTN II, with any recent radio firmware. The original WM 6.0 ROM and it's radio work fine in low power mode, but the new ones appear connected but are always at 1 Mbps and there's no traffic until you move the slider to performance mode.
You go into WiFi settings and you configure manual IP and DNS so as router.
DNS is important.
Whit manual configuration, Wifi work always.
(sorry for my english)

This is not a solution. I didn 't buy the device to be able to connect to my home WiFi only. What about public hotspots? Or hotels? Or whatever outside your home?
I have searched a lot on this forum and have not found any solution to the wifi problem on HTC diamond....I am sure there are experts in this forum who have worked around their way and I would request them to post their comments as to how they have got their WIFI talking on HTC Diamond...........
I am trying connecting to my home wireless network. It finds the network but unable to connect to it. Any help please? Has anyone managed to get it connected to any Wifi? I ahve already set the power management to "best performace...no succes.......
(My laptop and O2 stealth does get connected to the same network and it an open wifi connection)...........PLZ Help.....
There is no wifi problem on the Diamond. it works fine for on every ROM I have used.
It sounds like you haven't set the access key in your Diamond.

Would be kind enough to elaborate......Mine is open WIFI router, there is no need for any pass keys......my other phone O2 stealth perfectly connects while HTC diamond doesn't.........
Please do have a problem and that the reason there are so many view on this thread in just 30 minutes....
thanking you in advance for your help........
i've never known any problems, have u flashed a cooked ROM or changed the Radio?
if so, i would try going back to stock and see if it works then, if not, send it back as faulty.
I'm not aware of any 'known issue' with the WiFi on the Diamond either, certainly mine and my girlfriend's both work fine in this respect. If you've never successfully connected to any wireless network then you've got a hardware issue; send your phone back to be repaired and stop wasting time looking for a software solution would be my advice.
wifi,,,
Glad that a lot of users doesn't had problem with the wifi, but it's an iminent malfunction, and looks to be a hardware problems...
I had change my rom and radios a lot, and the issues are the same:
Opened the comm manager or the settings-connection-wifi, turn on the wifi, and it's turn off again...
In my case, often worked properly after soft reset, and i often connect with 3g or gprs, but...it's a suck!!!
Step by step......connecting to wifi....

Would you please step by step elaborate ....connecting to an open wifi network......will be really greatful........
if your diamond is not connecting to your router there is some posibilities. Are you at home or work, at work on the AP you can have security setings and MAC filtering. At home if you have not implement security and mac filtering you can be to far of your router, You must be between -60 and -80 Db max and at -80 it is easyer with a MIMO router, etc...
Got the same problem as you
this is how i fixed mine.
1) I download a radio rom thing and install it
2) restart the device and the wifi is working perfectly.
No problems at all!
Got the same problem as you
I download a radio rom and install it but still turn off again

Hi guys I am having an anoying problem with my phone.
I connect my Wifi to and ad-hoc connections which works fine for all devices.
The connect is stable and almost 100% quality
The problem is that the phone doesn't have any data transfer, I can get online for but for only a few seconds like update Weather and open a page, then is like offline the Wifi stays connected.
I tried using both settings connects to internet and to work, I got the same problem.
Can please someone help, it must be a problem in the settings, I am new in WM phones
Have you checked if you need to put in a security code? Is signal strength ok? And sometimes you have to wait quite a while for the webpage to be downloaded.

I have WEP code inserted, the signal is very strong 90 to 100% I am really close to the source.
The pages open pretty fast but after some seconds it doesnt open anything neither Skype or Weather works but the connection stays on.
I even try static IP and still got the same issue, I wounder whats is the problem, Saturday I will connect it directly to router instead of an ad-hoc to see what the results may be.
I really need help with this... It is so anoying.
I do not understand, yesterday it worked all day, and today is not working only for a few seconds and the only thing I touch was trying to connect to a network in different place.
Does anyone have any idea? Any info could be useful
I think I just found problem. DNS It seems that the phone the last dns added. What I did now was to delete the dns numbers so the server may add it again. It is working again.

I'm sure your problem needs some helping, but you're posting in the wrong device forum for that. This is the Iolite section.
By the way, the original problem is solved already, so this is considered answered.
Closed.
