simple enough i cant connect to my home wifi using my wizard.
It is able to find the network, and says it is "available" but when i press connect it goes ... "connecting" and then returns to "available"
Ive read through most threads on this forum and no one seems to have this problem, i have changed to power setting to best performance as well.
However i dont know what to put in the Enrole tab...? this is porbably the source of my problem.
please help me!
Hi, The problem could be the speed of your router connection. Set it to be able to connect to b end g clients.
In my case this worked. I Had the same problem you descibed, so give it a try!

thanks for the suggestion, but im running three computers over this wifi network already, and two have "g" wifi cards and one has a "b" card. so i dont think this is my problem.

My first problem was forgetting I'd got MAC filtering active on the AP. Once I'd added the Wizard's mac address things got better.
What encryption are you running?

Exact same problem as you jimmy_boy.
Quite frustrating not being able to connect to the wireless network.
I am wondering if it is a rom-specific problem...I am using an O2 XDA mini S, on vodafone. Would this cause the wifi to lock up?
Unsure as what to try next. If someone could shed some light on the situation it would be much appreciated.

Shouldn't do, I've got the same setup here and WiFi is fine.

If I have the power on anything but Best Performance, I get flakey throughput, even right on top of the AP. Both my laptop and iPAQ hx4700 will find the AP from all corners of the house, whereas the Wizards both want better signal strength before they'll connect.
Like I asked jimmy_boy, what encryption are you running?

I also experienced this problem and what I did to fix it was, changing the channel on my access point. I stepped through each channel stopping and trying it until I found a channel that worked.
I turned the encryption off. If I goto "Network adapters" it shows the name of my connection and "available", but when I goto "wireless lan" tab, it shows me no information on the connection at all.
Tried setting the power setting to max as well. Still nothing.
Would appreciate it, if someone could step by step explain how to do this.
thanks in advance.
I also have the exact same problem as described in the first post. I do have MAC filtering on, but I've also added the MAC of my Wizard.
I haven't tried changing the channel though...
yeah gdap thats exactly what i get, im running WEP encryption, but ive entered the network key into the wizard as well, i know this is correct, becasue i entered it in wrong on purpose to see if there is an error message and there is. So it knows the network key the network is available yet it stil wont connect!!!!!
Any ideas??
im running the uk t-mobile rom so i dont think its the roms problem.
changing the channel of all 4 computers ... oh the effort
but i might give it a shot
Same problem here
I can connect with my Exec, but not with my gf's Wizard. Same symptoms. It says the network is available if I get the key right, but then won't connect. Please help!
My Qtek 9100 can connect to my encrypted 802.11b AP, get's a valid IP address from the DHCP server, but is not able to communicate with TCP/IP. Also the other members of the wireless LAN can not see my Qtek nor is PING responding. PWLAN from Swisscom here in Switzerland is working well, the login page is showing up.

I get the same issue: my 9100 connects to my router and receives a valid IP address. Even though the IP Address/Subnet Mask are valid, I cannot seem to get any access to the internet via wifi. I find this very frustrating, so if anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate it very much.
Exact same problem myself, but I think I only have my router set at 'G', where the o2 Mini is 'b' only.
Connected to both of my Morrisons supermarkets wireless network tho,they're both on 'b'........ no encryption in either of them.
problem solved!!!!!
stupidly i forgot to add the MAC address of my wizard :shock:
thanks for the help Dox

Please explain
Check on the setup page on your router that MAC address filtering is not enabled. If it is you will need to add the MAC address of your Wizard's Wlan card in order to connect.
Often forgotten but excellent security feature is MAC address filtering
Sorted, as I thought, I had to set router to transmi b as well as g
No need to flash the Rom now :twisted:

On your wifi router settings on your computer, you have to add the MAC address of the wizard, which can be found by , settings, advanced tab on your wizard.
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!

Hi,
What is the registry setting (if any) to change the WM 6.5(.x) setting from WiFi channel 1 to any other channel. This is an important setting to get the HD2 WiFi Router to work also in an environment with heavy WiFi traffic around.
Sorry that my attempts to search for a solution has failed. Please feel free to flame me. But when this is done, please post llink to relevant thread, if any.
Regards,

Hi,
I had a problem where no wireless device would pick up my HTC HD2's wireless router. In the end I changed the WiFi channel of my office router and all worked perfectly, so if someone has the answer to how to change the wireless channel on WM6.5 please post it
Maybe the channel gets assigned when you hard reset the phone as I had to change my WiFi router away from channel 11, so I assume the phone is on 11.
Cheers
surely its all done via the router not the phone, the router broadcasts on channel X and the device just accepts on that channel
Is there any solution to this issue? would love to know the answer.

@Richy99 & p107r0: can you read in English with understanding?
What about the router function embedded in HD2? artreides is asking about HD2 WiFi Router so please don't reply until you know how to change its channel settings or you've got something really valuable to say

my bad
....
No worries...
... but, going back to the subject: anybody knows how to change it? I don't believe it is locked down to the hardware so there has to be a way to change it software-wise... anybody?
WMwifiRouter has a setting for changing channel but the inbuilt router does not & I have not seen a reg value linked to it in my registry browsing ...

you need a wlantest.apk of FW you are using
Have you ever used this network with another device before? And worked it? This may be that problem.. WiFi may be protected by MAC filter. Lets say if it IS protected with this filter, you have to configure your WiFi router and add MAC adress of your phone into it. If it isn't, try another ROM or try to do something with your router.
dont have any idea about MC filter but other phones (nokia 5800,95) & also samsung wave of worth Rs.7500/- is also working with it ,my lapy is also works with it plz guys help me............. http://media.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/mad.gif

this is a problem with the way your router gives ip to device
go in your router settings and reset all
then imput a new pass key
then it will work
i had problem with my ps3 haveing the same ip as my phone so when boath where online my phone no work online
a simple router reset to default and a new pass key fixed all problems
hey its my college wifi i can't edit it... is their some other way??????
If it is with what the craigboro guy said, you could use a laptop or another android device to scan the network (check the market, net scan or something) to scan the IP addresses on the network and then in advanced settings give your phone an IP that isn't being used, not ideal but hey, you're asking in the G3 section, not the g5 section, so you are bound to get general answers

It's something no one really can help you with. There are some incompatibilities with some routers/configurations.. try changing your encryption type on the router (WPA to WPA2 or vice versa, or even TKIP to AES or vice versa). Use WEP if you need to.. just block devices by mac address for security reasons
EDIT: just remember to delete the entry on your phone and make a new one every time you make changes
@Nikkopt
I tried even with no security... and useless
PS in froyo is working perfectly
