I am on VF Uk rom 1.66.405.2 and radio 2.06.51.07 and I cannot connect to my WIFI router.
protocol and code are correct, my laptop works fine, but hd2 still does not get a connection.
router is a netgear WGR614V9
my kaiser worked no problem but hd2 does not.
anyone with similar prob or can offer any advice.
maybe your router is configured to not allow new wireless connections?! no problem here with connection, same rom/radio...

Check ur router for wireless internet sharing if its enabled ?
hi i am on the same ROM and radio settings (except Standard HTC unlocked ROM not VK) and i too had the wifi not connecting. I found that whenever i re-put in my wifi password it seemed to incorrectly save (more stars in the password box than letters in my password).
I found a hard reset has cleared the problem - have you tried that yet?

Hi!
Before I start tese are my current system info:
XDA2ii (O2) - UK
ROM version 1.10.00 WWE
ROM date:24/12/2004
Radio ver: 1.00.00
Protocol version: 1337.39
ExtROM version: 1.10.124 WWE
OS: Windows Mobile 2003 2nd Edition
Version 4.21.1088 (build 14235.2.0.0)
I am trying to connect to my home WIFI network but I can't seem to connect. It is indeed picking up the server (name appears) in list but just stops at connection to network. It can't seem to get any connection at all. My wireless router (Linksys WRT54G) can't seem to detect it as well.
I have tried connection to WIFI at an airport and it seems to work but not at home. I have set my Linksys to Mixed mode (B and G) but still can't get it to work.
Any advice?
Thank you!!!
XDA IIi (or 2i) and 3COM WAP
Hi.
Got the exact same (everything) XDA IIi model (also O2/UK). I'm also having problems with WLAN/WIFI connectivity both at work and home. Both cases it's a 3COM OfficeConnect WAP (office one not setup by me). I thought I validated that the XDA seems to be OK by being able to connect to a neighbours WAP (some BT-Voyager thing) with no apparent problems. And so was thinking that the problem is with the 3COM WAP. However, your post raises doubts on my conclusion ...
The search goes on ...
Re: XDA IIi (or 2i) and 3COM WAP
hi
My case is even worse, it can not detect any wifi signal at any of the hotspot in my city. Go to wireless Lan Manager, under WLAN button (red status) there is alwayls a sentence: "no connection in use". Clicking to it, the device seem to search but found nothing.
Try softreset, hardreset but the problem remains.
In addition, I try to turn off the phone (turn on flight mode) then it don't allow to turn on bluetooth and wifi too.
Maybe it is due to hardware error.
Really disappoint with O2 UK

WiFi connection problems with XDA2i
I have exactly the same O2 xda2i build as Johnnyboy, and precisely the same problem with WiFi as Blackwolf and Johnnyboy. I have a netgear WiFi access point at home, and have disabled the attach restriction and removed WEP. However, although the XDA can see the network name, it cannot connect to the network (just displays connecting...) nor does it show anything on the signal bar. Needless to say, it does not display SSID, Tx rate, Channel, IP address or any information from the network.
I have bought this device specifically for wifi access, and it is somewhat disappointing. Anyone have any idea how this can be fixed? (if at all :? )
XDA Wi-Fi Successful Connection!!!
Hi,
I'm new to the forum and new to XDA2i....
I too had many frustrations connecting the wi-fi...but now I've cracked it, here's how.......
On first very first use (or following a hard re-set) device users are prompted to choose “What do you want WLAN to connect to?” The option bullets are ‘Internet’ or ‘Work’….’Work’ should be selected, this will connect them to the nearest WLAN (if this network is WEP encrypted it should be switched to ‘Open’ rather than ‘shared’ as is often the case).
Next prompt asks for any WEP Encryption ‘Pass Key’ to be input, when doing so omit any ‘-‘ between character pairs. Normal start-up should then be completed. Once device is up and running…..
From ‘Start’ pull-down on the ‘Today Screen’ select…. ‘settings’>’connections tab’>’connections icon’>’advanced tab’>’Select Networks’> pull-down ‘My Work Network’ > ‘OK’ out of selections to save and exit.
Go to ‘Wireless Manager’ in programs, select WLAN icon from main screen (which should turn green to show active), then select mini ‘WLAN’ icon from lower toolbar to see the status of the connection, quality of signal etc.
That did it for me......
Cheers
Finally cracked it! As I never had any problems with my Netgear MR814 wireless router, I assumed the issue was with the XDA2i. Instead, a router firmware upgrade did the trick! Should have thought of that earlier.
Cheers, S.
When i first got my XDA 2i home from the shop the first thing it tried was the wireless lan, and the same thing happend to me also..... everything fine in the router but still unable to connect the xda.
anyway after few hours of going over every single setting time and time again , it finally worked !!
i left the Wlan enabled and after a period of a few minutes it connected to my network.
So i think the XDA 2i is quite tempremental with Wlan, as i know my settings were correct.
having said that, i have had no problems with Wlan t all since then, it will now even connect to other Wlan hotspots with no problems whatsoever.
The only problem i have now is recieving a decent O2 Cellphone signal i my area
Well I have a XDA IIi and it connects fine and allways has to Citi Hotspots, TMO hotspots and my own Linksys WRT54GS. Netgear is the biggest piece of crap ever sold. If you have one I suggest you soak it in gas and burn it.
I had a problem with my XDA IIi connecting to a home Wi-Fi network with a Linksys WRT54GC router: a signal showed in the Wireless LAN Manager, including an IP address, but the WI-Fi icon at the top of the Today screen had no connection bars. After days of this I went to the Linksys settings for an unrelated reason and disabled Wireless SSID Broadcast. Inexplicably this appeared to cure the WiFi problem with the XDA IIi, and I can now connect with ease.
Ok, I might as well add my question to this thread, as it's relevant.
I have an O2 UK XDA2i, and I've also experienced similar problems connecting the wifi and managing to get it to work properly.
I'm at Uni in Birmingham, and at some of my faculties there's wifi for students and staff to use - they give the broadcast SSID UCEOpenAccess, and you use your system logon (in my case STUDENTS\F05310011 and my password (secret ).
I have these details set in the LEAP tab of my wireless lan config (in the WLAN settings) - I have an entry named UCEOpenAccess, and I have my username and password (and domain) set correctly, and the auth type set to Open System (as opposed to EAP, doesn't seem to make any difference whatever I set it to)...
... I just can't connect to any wifi network! I can't even _SEE_ the wifi network, and I know it's there, I can pick up other wifi networks and detect them using Wifi Graph and Hitchiker. I just, bizarrely, can't see the one wifi network I'm trying to connect to.
It's incredibly frustrating. I have my network adapter set to connect to Work (as I've seen advised on these forums), and my IP is assigned via DHCP (they use a weird class b subnet for their network), and the proxy to connect to the Internet is also setup correctly in my Network (This network connects to the Internet checked, This network uses a proxy to connect to the Internet, and proxy is specified in the box), and as the proxy is a SOCKS 5 authenticating proxy, all the relevant details and username+password are in place in the Advanced settings.
Still doesn't work!
Is it due to my original (and decrepit, from the looks of things) firmware and software versions? I'm running original radio, is that a problem maybe? I've scouted about quickly for updates from O2 for my XDA, but I don't want to install a Japanese update as I don't reallllly want to have to read Japanese (and I can't, etc) - I don't want to make a brick out of this brand new phone, but the resources for total xda newbs is somewhat lacking. Can someone just poke me in the right direction with a stick?
Cheers all.
I have a MDA PRO
Rom Version: 1.12.42 wwe
Radio : 1.08.00
Protocol: 42.41.P8
Ext rom: 1.12.126 WWE
What I want to do: I am trying to connect to the internet using pocket internet explorer using my wifi network at home and not GPRS.
The problem: I go to 'Settings' >>"connections" tab >> 'Network Cards'>> "wirelss" tab
It displays my wifi connection and it says "available" so I {tap and hold} and select 'connect'. It then states that it is 'connecting' but it doesnt connect and reverts back to saying that my network is "available'.
What am I doing wrong? Do I have to set up something on my pc? Any additional settings on my Universal that i should initiate?
I tried searching the forum with no luck in finding someone with the same problem. Is there a thread with a guide that can help me out. Thanks for your time.
soft reset the phone
then no need to go into settings
on today screen (main screen) touch the "G" at the top
it will ask you if you want to activate wifi
select
it should connect automatically
I have exactly the same problem with my M5000.
Can anyone help?
Are your home wireless networks protected (eg WEP or WPA) ? If so - and I would hope so - then are you using the applicable WEP/WPA settings and key when trying to connect ?
Worth also trying to set the IP address manually on the PDA, see if this helps ?
For me, the first thing to do when experiencing wireless probs is to temporarily disable any encryption and see if it works then.....and then re-enable, carefully inputting key etc.

What happened there ! :roll:
On the Blue Angel, it was simple - you just set up a new connection, enter the PSK, connect and off you go!
On the Universal, however, I'm having no joy. I've set up the WEP and PSK stuff and the PDA can connect to the network, but when I try and open IE it opens up GPRS. Also, PC Anywhere only works via USB - again, it won't connect via WiFi. I'm sure it's just a case of adjusting some settings but I don't know which ones!
Wifi Connection Problems
Hi I'm experiencing exactly the same problems trying to connect.
I have a Wanadoo Livebox and my xda exec.
I've tried with my connection both unsecured and with 128bit wep encryption using the correct wep key....I still get connecting, followed by available, repeated continuously?
I have the xda set to connect to "the internet" and the authentication to "open". Key index is 1.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Tim
Wifi Connection Problems
Hi, Just a bit more info...
Encryption is set to "wep"
Mac address is associated with the livebox.
802.1x is ticked to use IEEE 802.1x network access control.
EAP type is Smart cCard or Certificate
Thanks

Rom version 1.13.82 WWE

I just checked (with my Blue Angel) that the router and everything else is working and I'm happy to say it all is.
I set up the new connection on the BA from scratch - WPA-PSK enabled, nice long PSK, and I'm using TKIP. Network connects to: The Internet.
This allows me to remote up to the PC via PC Anywhere, and allows me to connect to the 'Net for free via the WiFi router.
When I duplicate the settings on the Universal, neither of the above works. What am I doing wrong?
Help!
You haven't got mac address filtering enabled on your router, and have forgotten to add your Universal's mac address to the list, have you?
Cheers,
Steve.
No, it's disabled.
hehe i had this problem tonight and was going to post up.
Has your router got MAC-control or anything on it? My SSID is not set to broadcast so I put the settings in manually.
I deleted the settings, and put them in manually again a few times, making sure I had the encryption stuff set correctly.
Eventually it connected and now seems to be working fine.

Ad Hoc?
Ok, I've tried every possible combination possible and nothing is helping. So my next question to get around this problem>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Can I use my pc as a ad-hoc and us it as my gateway for my Universal?
I have a pc in the office down the hall with the actually wireless router, I have a pc in my room that is accessing the wireless router from the office.
Please let 'US' know if you have tried ad hoc or if you find the right settings to connect to the main wireless router.
Thank you
I am on my wifi network typing this, and my settings show 802.1x network access control not having a tick and network adapter connected to Work......on my iPaq hx4700 before, I used these same settings as they seemed to work well, although it ran WM2003SE not WM5.....
All this said, however, but I was lucky in that my MDA Pro connected to my wifi network at the first attempt - except not with as strong a signal as the iPaq had.....
Wifi Settings
Can anyone who has connected okay, let us have their full settings, so that we can try them?
Is your Router set 802.11g only?
You need to set the router to accept 802.11b and 802.11g.
If your router will only output at 54g, you could try the hack to switch the universal to 54g. I am yet to try this so I don't know if it works.
My MDA Pro connected straight out of the box once I set the ssid and encryption.
Hope this helps

I've been on the phone talking to 3rd line support at Orange.
Basically, the guy is totally flummoxed!
After trying to talk me through the setup from memory, it seems as though a whole menu of WiFi settings has disappeared from the phone - specifically, the ones that we need! This being the case, he's going to get hold of an M5000 tomorrow and will then bell me back so we can go through the whole process together, both of us using an M5000.
One thought that did occur to me was this: I've only just (like, 3 days ago!) upgraded to the M5000 and I've taken on some kind of free Internet access scheme with my tariff. Could it be that the settings for that (that are sent by Orange in a data SMS) have knackered the WiFi setup?
I'm considering a hard reset with a soft reset before the .CAB files install but will at least wait until tomorrow.
I'll keep you all posted....
Hello. I just got a 8125 and been messing around trying to get the WiFi to work. I can connect to my wireless network but internet explorer will not browse the internet. I can see my phone as an attached devise on my network, and ive tried it with WEP encryption and without. Both connect, neither work. I've tryed open system, shared key and all those things. I don't know much about certificates.. could that be it? Ive tried my network with b only, b/g, and g only. =[
I installed this but no luck:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=38898&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=
The odd thing is GPRS works fine. And laptops/anything else connect to my network fine.
I got this phone used.. could it be my rom?
Im using 2.25.11.1 WWE w/ cingular.
radio 2.25.11
protocol 4.1.13.12
EXTRom 2.25.11.102
Any imput would be apreciated. Thank you.
I'm having problems connecting my P3600 to a Netgear DG834GT ADSL Wireless Router with WPA-PSK security. If I turn the security off, the phone has no problems accessing the router. However, when enabled it is unable to authenticate.
It is running the latest 1.15 Rom and I have successfully connected my Imate JAMin to the same router.
Any suggestions?
mine is running fine on same router

Same devices here and no problems at all.
DGB834GT usually is the cause..it has been reported on suppressed Netgear forum
I've had the same problem with my DI-624. I can only connect if I disable all Super-G options AND use WEP instead of WPA.

Which forum did you see this on?
i have the same problem. i can't connect my p3600 to the network if i try to use wpa, wpa-psk, wpa2-psk encryption. if i use wep or no authentication i can connect to my router(asus wl500g deluxe with ddwrt firmware v23 sp2) without problems.
My p3600 works after I flashed the Dopod GPS enabled rom onto it.
Maybe give that a try if you are still running the HTC 1.15 ROM.

I used to have the same problem before upgrading with LVSW!! Now it works great.
I had the same problem, but after I updated my router to the latest firmware software it connected on WPA-PSK no probs.

Hi,
I have strange problem connecting my HTC Touch HD to Wifi router.
Initially PDA connects to router and internet is working. After some time(after few hours or few days) connection is lost and wont connect again. Reseting router helps. Connection is back again for some time.
Strange is that my E-ten X800 has no problem with wifi connection to the same router all the time.
So i cant find out where to look for problem. Is it my router or HTC problem?
I've tried :
.reset my router to default settings and setup it again
.installed newest router firmware.
.changed passwords (btw changing password sometimes solves problem without reseting router. And again for some time only)
.changed WiFi channel
.changed rom on HTC Touch HD (previously was original rom)
Router: Linksys WAG54G2 (Wifi - WPA2)
Any error message on the PDA?
Or the WiFi icon just keeps on moving?
You may Check This One out.
May be of help.
