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.

wifi
same problem here ...
I have tried to flash older radio didn't help ...
I have tried disable wep on my router ... didn't help
I'm just in a loop of AVAILABLE-->CONNECTING-->AVAILABLE etc.
please if someone finds a solution (patch) for this problem post it to this thread.

still there?

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

problem
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 Wifi at home...

Sorry if this has been discussed somewhere already...
I have a strange Problem with my Wifi... its not working since the "Official" ROM-Upgrade... but only at home.
- It finds the Wireless-Network and tries to get the IP-Adresse... but fails
- All other Components in my network (other handhelds, Laptops) connect without problems
- It worked before the ROM upgrade
- It works without any Problems at other Wifi-Networks (at work, as an example)
Any Idea, someone?
Thanks in Advance,
Oliver

What brand router do you have?
I have the Sitecom WL 173 and also have no success with Wifi. I cannot connect.

Hi,
I have a rather old Siemens Router... (not sure about the exact Model) Strange thing is, it worked flawlessly before the ROM Upgrade, but never since. Looks like I might have to replace it. Was there some sort of "Wifi Protcoll" Change within the new ROM? And now my Router is to old?

Some router/device combinations are troublesome, particularly older routers. I appreciate that it worked before, so it does point more to a Hero'ism than your router. Have you tried changing channel on your router as this may help?
Regards,
Dave

:-( changed channels... same issue. I can connect with anything else, but not with the Hero.
Looks like I have to replace my Wifi-Router at home...

Hey,
if your computer is almost always on, I'd recommend this amazing soft :
http://www.connectify.me/
It turns your computer into a wifi hotspot so you can use your mobile devices easily.
A few clicks to install and it's already working (and no problem on hero like with ad-hoc)

[Q] Strange Wi-Fi issue.

I have a strange problem about Wi-Fi. I tried every single Android Build in this forum, and i'm still having it.
The problem is, my Wi-Fi network is works like a charm with Sense builds, every Sense build. Without exception. But with the stock builds, it's just stops connecting to the internet(still vague?). I tried everything; static IP's, tried to make my network open... Nothing changed. Is there any solution for this, or the problem is just my network???
btw, i can reach router's homepage (192.168.0.1), i just cant access to the internet.

I'm pretty sure you problem has been covered elsewhere (although I cant be certain..."It just stops working" is a bit vague)....
But, searching for "wifi" problems might not be very benneficial soo I will try to help instead of flaming you like i normally might
Which channel is your router using???
From what I recall some builds will not recognise the higher channels (11, 12 and 13 I think).
So if your router is on channel 11 or higher I would try a lower number
If thats not the problem then I dunno....its back to searching for you

yes, that was 11. so i tried 10,7,5,2... nothing changed. still i can reach to router's homepage but not internet. it doesn't make sense

guys, please help me. i'm still trying to solve it. i tried every single rom published today too. cyanogens, not cyanogens...
-i also upgrade my radio from 2.10 to 2.11.

no wifi anymore after access point switched to 802.11g only

Hi,
My blackstone works flawlessly with wireless wherever I go. However, at my workplace it doesn't connect anymore after all access points were switched from 802.11b/g to 802.11g only. (I've tried the same at my home router/access point and there it works fine). I've tried several things like forgetting the wifi settings, soft reset, hard reset, even tried a couple of ROMs and radios but nothing helps to get it connected to my work wifi. There's even two variants: an encrypted and an unencrypted version. Both used to work but don't anymore. I can see the SSID's but I cannot connect. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Except on your workplace?
You should talk with your IT guys (or gurlz)...
If it's working elsewhere with g, then it's not hardware.

I have talked to the IT dept, and they can't fix it. It seems to be an incompatibility between the blackstone and the type of access points here, when switched to 802.11g only. The workaround for now is to use another SSID that does support 802.11b+g, to which the blackstone connects with a 802.11g connection... weird!
If anyone has come across similar issues and has a clue: I'd really like to know!
cheers

NexusHD2-JellyBean-CM10 V1.4a - Networking issue

Hi
I just installed the NexusHD2 ROM today, and I experienced a bug/issue with this ROM.
The problem is that my wireless network is hidden (doesn't broadcast SSID and doesn't show up on list of available networks) and therefore no devices will see that it's there, unless they know it's there. I did have the SENSATION XL v3.0 Android 2.3.5 on the device before and that one did not have the problem. Before that I had some PACman JellyBean ROM, which also didn't have that issue.
My HTC One X with stock HTC 4.1.1 ROM also registreres my hidden network without any problems.
Now in order to get connected to my network, I need to tell the OS (doesn't matter if it's Android, WP, iOS, Windows, OS X, Linux) that it's there, and also tell the type of password-encryption and what the password is. This proces is just the same on every single ROM I used, but only difference is that the NexusHD2 JB ROM doesn't recognize the network when it is hidden. If I then go to the setup of my Wireless router and turn off the hidden network, so that anyone, within range of the wireless router, can see it, then it also is recognized by the HD2 and it automatically connects. When I then hide the network again, it stays connected, until I reboot the phone or until it turns of Wi-Fi to lower power-consumption. When it then tries to reconnect, I have the issue again, where it tells my that the network is out of range/not available.
Does anyone else have this issue, or does anyone know how to fix it, without having to change the configuration of my router.
I have the HTC HD2 EU 512MB Version

Just go to settings and add the network manually. The plus sign at the bottom of screen!

I use the same setup - hidden network - without problems. Not sure what the problem is but I would try a lower channel number and/or set a different encryption method on the router to see if one might make a difference.

Appreciation is a wonderful thing. It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well.
