Hi, Ive been having problems with my wifi connections lately. Im running stock rom on my vibrant and from time to time I have trouble with the wifi conection. the vibrant will connect just fine with a strong signal but will not load webpages, or open market. This problem happens sometimes. The connection is a secure wap. I am wondering what I can do to fix this issue, its really frustrating.
Thanks in advance
btw all other devices in the house have no problem connecting and using this connection. Sometimes I will have my laptop in front of me using this very conneciton.
Happens to me all the time. Have to disconnect it and reconnect. If it still doesn't work, you have to reset your phone.
My friend is having same problem with wife on his Vibrant....is the a hardware or software problem? Because I had Captivate and it never had this problem since I had the phone.
WIFI is good and connect is Excellent.... but just can't use it to surf web or log on fring.....HOWEVER, it was able to logon the Market today using wifi.. Does anyone know why and how to fix this problem?
Thanks!!
What exactly do you mean by reset? you mean a factory restore? Im finally likng the battery life on this phone I dont want to lose that, will that be affected? Is there any other fix?

With internet sharing, my Kaiser used connect to the internet (T-Mobile mobile broadband) without problems fro the past year. Now since I got the HD, my internet connection is inconsistent. Sometimes it tries to load pages for ages, then timeouts, and sometimes it works like a charm. I don't think it's because of the signal, because network coverage seems fine (nearly always at 4 bars with HSDPA).
Has anybody been experiencing something similar ? Don't really think it's a problem related to USB because when my internet connection doesn't work when connected via USB, I sometimes switch to bluetooth, and that seems to work for a while, then it fails again.
I also tried it on a PC with XP, and had similar problems. Any ideas ?
Thanks

Hey there,
I'm experiencing the exact same problem with my Touch Diamond ...
My internet sharing via usb has been working fine for months now until this this week. Now, since monday, connection times out, loads half a page, etc. i.e. exact same symptoms as yours.
Internet sharing via bluetooth works fine.
Need help PLEASE!!!
Cheers

It lasted for a few days and since last week it's working brilliantly as it should. Maybe it was just a network issue ? Did you manage to get your connection to work again ?
I also think it's network related ...
It was working fine again for one day, then it just started acting up again.
I now use the bluetooth connection instead of USB. Seems to be much more reliable and for some reason I'm getting better speeds than via USB.
I always thought USB wud be much quicker.
If only our ISP can get their damn act together.
Thanx for the feedback ..
Cheers
Has anyone found a solution to this problem? I'm having the same exact issue with my Raphael.

Is it at all possible to use internet sharing and activesync or use the phone as a modem while using active sync?

So far i know active Sync Closing if you use it as Modem...
So no Sync and modem at all? That sucks, worked great for ym old Nokia.
I have noticed the following problem:
When I use my HD as a modem it functions properly for about the first 15 minutes, then HSDPA icon disappear and remain fixed only 3G icon and the connection becomes very slow.
Similarly this happens even if I use my HD with built in opera browser; besides in this manner I notice that the memory usage increases: even if I stop the internet connection and I delete cache the memory usage remain high and it is necessary to perform a soft reset to fix it.
I've tried with another sim card and GSM operator; with HSDPA and HSUPA enabled and supported by the operator, but I've experienced the same problems.
If I use my old USB or express card wireless modems I have no problems and the connection is always very fast
A ROM upgrade by HTC to solve once and for all this problem will be appreciated !!!
Is anyone else having the same problem as me. Running on the 1.66ROM my wifi has suddenly stopped working over the past week. It is connected to the correct connection but brings up error messages when I use Opera, sync email, weather, Twitter etc.
Because of this I'm having to use my 3G connections which:
a) isnt as fast
and
b) is taking up a large chunk of data.
I havent tried a hard reset yet as I feel that it would be a last chance scenario to do this as it was working before perfectly until the other week.
Hope someone can help.
Just bumping this.
Anyone got any ideas?
I'm having the same problem.... .is no one else having this problem???? ****!
I uninstalled the xda wifi router app and my connection worked again. Worth a shot for you....
Hi guys.
I have some strange (i think anyway) WIFI behaviour that drives my crazy, im looking for some help resolving it.
My WIFI seems to go into hibernation/sleep even though i explictly set if to never off in the WIFI settings. I notice this problem because my exchange sync fails constantly (only on WIFI, on 3G everthing is perfect). I notice this problem occours when the phone hasnt been used in a while.
After its been in hibernation mode it very slow to get connection again. I open a browser and need to press "refresh" numerous times (about 15/30 sec. i think before this WIFI i "back").
Any views on this problem? hardware related? software related?
My device is running custom ROM, custom Radio, Rooted ect.
Thanks in advanced.
Happens on stock Rom too actually. Happens to the x10 mini and mini pro too actually. Software issue?

**** phone happens to me when I'm in my bed room lose connection all the time and when you want it to connect agian you have to go into settings and WiFi and then it starts looking for it in steed of re-connecting Its self
Seem crazy if this is normal behaviour..
It makes the push email notification useless when im on WIFI. I need to manually sync to test for new emails (and even the sync fails, until the WIFI connection is restored..), need to wait 30 sec to go online, check facebook, twitter etc.
Can anyone else confirm/unconfirm this is normal WIFI behaviour?
Hah, mine doesnt find any wifi hotspot not the mine nor the one of my neighbors
while my HD2 connects easily to all of them, also having bluetooth problems anyone can confirm the buetooth and wifi of the phone are bundled?
calling htc tomorrow
I also have a problem: when I enable the n-setting on my router while I am having a WPA2 encryption and the SSID broadcast is disabled, my DHD doesn't find the access point. When I disable the n-setting, my DHD does find the access point

I have just bought my Htc Hd2 a few days ago. My Wifi on the phone seems to be playing tricks on me. I am connected to the Wifi, but only sometimes when I am lucky that I can go on the internet. I have no idea why it doesn't work 100% the time like the iphone4. I have tried factory reset the hd2 and it is the same. My modem connection works all the time I even tried going on the internet on the same wifi as my computer and it works on my computer. How can I fix this problem or is the hd2 always like that.
Have you already tried to increase your HD2's WiFi power in advanced WiFi settings?
Also what router are you using and what firmware are you running?
I had a LG Arena KM900 that would not play nice with my DIR-628 router
thanks uli71 for your suggestion. I think that might have solved the problem. I need to use hd2 for a while longer to see if the problem continues.
Hi, I have got a very strange issue, I have data and wifi connected but cannot connect to the internet with either, if it was just one or the other but with both data and wifi, I have tried many 'fixes' but nothing works, I restart the phone and both work fine for a while but after I wake the phone from standby neither work again... maybe this is a clue any ideas? thanks
What does not work? Is there only a particular app that doesn't work over either one of them?
Did you ever use a VPN for this phone?
Also, do a factory reset and see if getting back to the original settings it will work.
