[Q] Wifi in Android - HD Mini General

Hello everybody!
I'm sorry, that I post here, but as I'm pretty new, I'm not allowed to write anything in the developers forum. I successfully enabled wifi in android and the phone finds my wlan network. When I enter the wlan-key the phone first connects and also establishes the connection. Unfortunately after it has connected it tells me, that it's out of range an tries to reconnect. Thus I never have a stable network, although the signal strength is at maximum. Has anybody also encountered this problem? Any hints? Router is Fritz!Box 7113 and wlan is wpa2 secured.
Already thanks for your replies!

get a better router(Linksys)..this has NOTHING to do with Android WiFi!

I know that my router is not the best, but I have several devices which have access to the router (two notebooks, one pc, xbox 360, windows mobile on HD Mini) and there the connection has always been stable and reliable. I NEVER had any disconnects now in the last three years. Therefore I'd suggest it's a software problem. Also somebody else has posted in the developers thread for wifi on android, that he has the same problem.

Okay now, I solved the problem preliminary.
First I used Android 2.2, where the problem occured. Now I switched back to 2.1 and patched the files in order to enable wlan. In 2.1 I can establish a stable connection to my router. Strange! Maybe someone could also mention that in the developers thread to help people who also had that problem.

TyTN wireless problems

Hi!
I have a huge problem, with my tytn HTC
I have a wireles network at home. It is built like this:
Cable modem --> (not wireless)Router--> computer (conected to the router via UTP cable, that means with ordinary network adapter card).
In this computer, i have WIRELESS USB card, configured as Access point (AP), so the wireless networks works just fine. With my laptop i can connect to internet through this card with no problem at all...
But, when i try to connect to internet with my TyTN, it just won't work... it finds wireless network, it sais it is available, but when i try to connect, nothing happens. it sais "connecting" and than- nothing happens... after several tries, it sais that my wireless network is unavailable... when i reset my Tynt, it sais it is available again, but the same story again...after several attempts to connect to wireless network, it sais unavailable and that's it...
What is wrong? i tried everything, im quite desspered here...
Well, tnx in advance for any suggestions and advices...
I appologise for my bad english, too...
TNX!
Do you have any restrictions in your Acess point configuration? If yo have, just remove it or reconfigure for acess with your TyTN. Try to remove WEP or MAC filtering or firewall...
Resolving your wireless problems ...
There's actually several things you need to check.
First, on the Router side, insure that you are not restricting your wireless access. For instance, is your Router set to G Only or is it b/g?
Next, on your router side, make sure your router is not hidden. If so, then you'll need to manually add the router via Configure Wireless Networks on your TyTN. At the top is "Add New...". Choose this and insert your settings for your wireless router.
On the TyTN (HTC Hermes) side of things, you need to see if you are set to be B only or if you've upgraded (I think most ROMs on this site have this fix installed) and your device is seen as a G device and therefore can connect to G only devices.
These should hopefully resolve your issues.
i removed restrictions and firewall and still nothing...
Next thing, my wireless Access Point is set to 54g Auto.
On my Tynt i have installed Windows mobile 6 profesional, CE OS 5.2.1437 (build 17944.0.3.1)
I don't know exactly where should i look if my HTC is wireless is B or G...
I tried to change settings on my AP from 54g Auto to 802.11B and to to 802.11G and vice versa, but still nothing...
As i wrote before, i don't have wireless router i just have an ordinary router and then wireless USB card in one of the computers, so i can connect with my laptop to internet over this card. With laptop it works excelent.
So, can anyone suggest what kind of OS should i install on my HTC in order to fix this, and where can i get one?
TNX for so far, and TNX in advance for any further information or suggestion!
Still having problems...i tried everything...
i tried to connect to wireless network at friend's wireless router...TyNT found a signal, everything was just fine, then asked me for key (friend has WEP protection), i typed the password, and then i couldn't connect again...
I havo no clue whatsoever anymore...
Anyone with same problem?? Any suggestions?
Tnx in advance for any advice...
hmm...
I guess it is a hardware problem with my tynt's WI-FI...i can't think of anything else... i tried everything, still can not connect...
Im getting quite desspered with this HTC... i guess i'll sell it and buy NOKIA N95 or something like that...
well, if someone by any chance know where the problem is, i thanks in advance for every advice or suggestion
TNX

I have nothing to contribute as we have similar problems. I have learned from other users that development team from Htc is preparing a patch which will be released in two months time. Let's wait for it then.

Hi!
I'm just wondering are there any solutions been found?
Or it's definitely hardware problem?
WBR!

so Ive found my problem ....
Ive upgraded firmware in my router to newest version and problem appeared.
When I've removed encryption wpa2 and set my router to no encryption my wifi worked again.
So I've bought different wifi router and I've no problems now.
So anyone who is having dead wifi in hermes try to deactivate wifi encryption and try a different router (friends house or public wifi hotspot)

Recently bought my wife one of these devices and just spent two whole days looking for a solution and that was it.. mixed mode - I had mine set to "G" only! Sometimes the solution is too simple for the geek to be able to spot I guess - maybe the wife would have found it faster!
Thanks for the solution.. as with all forums I always suggest a FAQ with these solutions or links to the threads/posts with these tips and resolutions.

no working wifi after flashing

hi,
i flashed from an original wm 6.0 rom to a custom 6.1.
and somehow my wifi doesnt work anymore. it finds networks etc. but when i try to connect it keeps trying to connect and then it gives me this error:
Cannot connect to the network. check your network and service provider settings and try again.
i tried several wm 6.1 roms now, all with that error.
can anyone help me?
the best should be, get back to the original ROM. With wish Rom do you flashed?
found the problem
i had to set a higher IP range in my router. when my main PC was shut down it finally connected. so it was just an ip issue.
Wifi not working
Sorry for digging up a 3 year old thread. But my Touch Cruise has the similar problem with wifi after new ROM. It can see all the access points, but can't connect to my wireless router.
When you say it was the IP range issue, don't you have DHCP enabled? Could you explain further, please? Thanks!

HTC HD2 & WiFi

HI, I recently purchased a HD2 and have been very impressed with it.
I have been scouring the internet for upgrades/tips/customisations etc and here seems to be the place to be.
Now I have Opera 10 and Opera 9.7 installed(Default)
I followed all the instructions to be able to watch BBC iPlayer to the letter.
I ofcourse got the "you need to be connected via WiFi to watch" message, so I promptly booted up my WiFi on the phone and connected to my home router.
As I did this, as per usual it connected fine with full signal strength. The only problem being that once connected I cannot access the internet via either browser on my phone, and worse, none of my machines connected to the router(via ethernet or WiFi).
In essence it completely shuts my router out, I have to turn my WiFi off on the phone, then turn the router off and on again just to get connection back for my computers.
It is most definitely the phone connecting causing the issue, since it only happens when I try to connect the phone to the router. It also only started when I changed the "opera:config" settings for BBC iPlayer.
I am at my wits end with it and really, really dont want to have to do a hard reset and lose all my new contacts/photo's/app's etc.
Any help is appreciated!

Before I post my reply I would just like to say, I think its great to still see active development and mature forums with timely and accurate responses.
Demon_man, you sir, are a legend. I had actually read that thread but discontinued halfway down due to a poster explaining they could still gain access to their hub.
In essence, it appears when I started using my Leo as a WiFi Hub it took on the default 192.168.1.1 IP as a static(which I assume was to emulate a router). Once I discontinued using it in that way both my router and phone had been assigned to same IP address, essentially cutting my router off when I connected my phone.
I have reset the adapters to get the IP from server in future.
I also already had the iPlayer tweak in place, but thanks for the link.
Many thanks again for such a speedy response.

WLAN 802.1x / 802.11b problem

Hi guys,
my University stopped the 802.11b standard for their WLAN network (only g/n possible). Since that happened my HTC Hero (Elelinux-6.2.0-Hero-Speedmachine-v5-Reloaded) cannot connect anymore.
The guys from the computer core facility said that many HTC mobile phone seem to have this problem because the phone always try to connect with the 802.11b-standard first. Since it is not available anymore, the connection cannot be established.
My question is now: Does anybody know how to fix this problem? Is it possible to prevent the phone from using the 802.11b standard?
Thanks a lot!
Cheers
oh yeah i REALLY would like to know that, too. that's been pissing me off for years. i actually had the some problem with a linuxdriven notebook. i never got that to work.
this seems to be a fairly common problem, can anyone provide a solution for that?

Wi-Fi problem

So, ever since I got my N6P almost a year ago I had this irritating Wi-Fi problem that I can't really find a solution for.. It goes like this;
Whenever my router restarts, my phone can't recognize the network.. The network doesn't even show on the list, and this changes only when I change the network name (SSID).. Only then the phone can recognize and connect to the network.. And during this time when it can't recognize my network, it can perfectly recognize every single Wi-Fi network within the range.. All but mine.
No other device in my household is affected "so it's not a router problem".. The phone is always fine with any other network anywhere else "which is confusing".
This problem existed since I opened the N6P box for the first time.. It didn't recognize my network until I changed the SSID whic was weird.
Please I need help, I live in a place where Internet is not really stable so the router restarts at least once a day, so this problem is Rally irritating.
Thanks in advance.
Any help guys?
Nothing?

Interesting how in your problem statement you definitively rule out your router, although your phone works on every other router/network out there. Try updating the router firmware, or rule it out by the process of elimination... eg. use another router as a test. There are a lot of settings in the router firmware that can affect negotiation. What is your router make/model and what is the firmware version?
