Does wifi turn on? (Does the left LED blink like it does when wifi is turned on?)
If not, then it could be related to a cingular cab - did you install any of the cabs from the original cingular extended rom?
left led does blink.
ive also gotten as far as picking up a network.
i have tried everything, i cannot get my wifi to work at all. i dont know whats up.
the settings i needed (which i replicated for the new rom) on the old rom, was this
I would select networks, MY work network, this connects to the internet.
then in the WLAN adapter i had to manual enter my dns servers.
thats pretty much it to get it to work, but now with this rom it wont
Similar or different problem? Not sure. PARTLY SOLVED!

Hi NG,
I updated my O2 XDA mini s (German) from OS 1.3.4.2 to 2.16.9.1. (Radio 02.07.10 included). To be honest, I was never really happy with the quality and reliabilty of the radio. 4 out of 5 times it did work, but once in a while, especially while roaming, it gave me a headache. After unlocking and updating to the new version, WLAN looks to be working quite well, at least for connecting to access points, but it seems that it can't browse external websites. VXutils give back a socket error trying to access external (outside my home network) websites/Email.
Internal (inside my home network) connections work like a charm. Termincal Services client accesses my Win2003 Server no problem and I can also connect to a website hosted on my internal server. (http://servername:port).
Whenever I try to connect to external sources, the browser stops afer not successfully "locating" the respective server. On the other hand locating might not be the problem. Performing a ping to an external site with VXutils properly picks up the right ip address but cannot send/receive ping!
GPRS works as supposed. Can connect to sites with no problem.
May be somebody experiences the same problem or, even better, has a solution.
By the way I used @Work for all possible settings. The work profile is set up for both connection types.
Besides that, the new rom is really nice
EDIT Well after some time playing around, I have solved the problem or better the problem partly disapeared. In 'Settings' 'Network Adapters' I switched from Use server-assigned IP address to manual and entered IP, DNS, Gateway, etc. With these settings it everything worked after a soft-reset. Going back to DHCP and soft-reset, it first worked an now it doesn't anymore. At least there is a work around and I'm trying now some other things. All machines currently work with the DHCP settings correct. I will check and keep you updated if the problems comes from Server settings or from something in the PDA EDIT

i get as far as NETWORKS being detected. when i select one of the 3 that i pick up, i cannot connect. My own, pops up, and i get as far as entering the network key, then it tries to connect and doesnt.
this happens WITH or WITHOUT the DNS servers manualy entered in. anyone with some knowledge care to chime in and assist? thanks!

I can't get my WiFi card to initialize. After the upgrade, the card stays off. LED doesn't light. Is there a driver somewhere I could try to load?

did you change your Wizard to 802.11g. I found that once I did that, the card stopped working.. the setting was 4, but when i changed it to 8 it stopped worked..
it was some registry key. 802dotg or something ..
sorry i cant rember excatly.

Danrw. Concerning the registry settings, after patching the os I did change the registry settings. One already existed with the right value as shown in the 802.11g thread. The other one, DotG, I added.
After that, it did pick up a only G router!
As far as setting DNS manually. It is not enough to just cange the dns setting. You have to enter all the information and even after a soft-reset it takes some time to have the settings picked up... Use vxUTIL 'Info'-Screen to check the current settings. I did test wlan before and after applying packages from the extended rom. No change on reliability or performance on WLAN IMHO.
As far as I understand. Your problem is actually connecting to the router/Access Point. For testing please disable all security on your router and do a soft-reset before trying to access. Also since we have heard of several problems with model 9100 not realizing if an access point is available or not. Also change the SSID of your router and if possible the MAC Address of the router.
Don't forget to soft-reset and first try SDIO Adapter inyour pda with auto IP/DNS/etc. settings.
Another thought. Embarassing, but once I messed around with trying to get a new pda online and forgot to disable the mac filter settings in the router, which resulted in being able to see the active router but it didn't let me connect. After those two days I was missing a lot of hair.
Good luck

I did but only the minimum. I trimmed down their install to the basics. I narrowed it down to one of two CABs. Either the gprsstall or EnableEONS. I didn't install either of those and I"m now back up and running. Of course, I still can't get it to prefer WiFi to EDGE.
I had experienced the same problem with home wifi network after upgrading my rom. I saw in my laptop that the key was set to 2. I went to the network cards, clicked on my wifi network, and under Network Key swithed the value from 1 to 2. I can now connect to my wifi network at home.

I do not know if my solution will work for you because I upgraded my rom to 2.16 but lets give it a try. I use d-link DI-524 wifi router. Start menu > Settings > Connections (tab) > Network Cards [I must admit earlier today when I was trying to connect my k-jam to the wifi, I did get as far as it asking me for my authentication code and afterwards it timed-out] --> select your wifi network [at this moment as I'm trying this out my wifi on my k-jam is off] --> Network Key (tab) > it was the key index that I had to change from 1 to 2. Before doing this though, go to your router's wireless configuration page through your webbrowser and make sure the keyX (it looks for d-link this can be from key1 to key4 or at least on mine) and make sure the key index you select on your mda is the same number that is used on your router for code authentication.
Also I noticed after resetting my k-jam that I could get connected to my wifi but I could not surf, in wifi setting on my k-jam I had to hit renew ip and then I was able to surf.
I hope this works for you. Good luck and many late nights.
no luck with this for me
even tried removing wep all together. tried multiple routers.
i can detect the ssid's, but i cant connect to them. times out on the connect.
Mine worked no problem...you may already have had this suggestion but here was my process.
Unlocked with lokwiz
Upgraded
Reset before extended ROM apps installed
Installed total commander
deleted extended ROM
Upgraded again
i re-installed the CINGULAR ROM and WiFi works like a charm
......any clues?
Here's what I ended up finding out for mine. First, at the time I wrote this, I was running the 2.16 ROM. Now I'm running the 2.17, but the fix is the same with either.
Don't load the cingular add-ins GPRSSTALL or EONS. I narrowed it down to those two that were causing the issue. So, the only ones I install now are CingularMMSAccount, EdgeIcon, TimeStyle, WiFiRate4, and SmartDialingEnable. Thats it, and its all I've seen to be necessary from Cingular's little bundle 'o fun. Everything else I haven't found interferes with my ability to use the phone at all.
Hope this helps...

What does timestyle and wifirate4 do? I don't have these installed and haven't seen any problems.
Hi, I've some problem with wifi connections. I own a lynksis wag54g2 wifi router. I can establish a connection, but after some times (it's not standard, it may vary), my device disconnect from the router and it's not able to reconnect. All that i can do is plug off my router (i take off the ac adapter) and when it's up again my phone can connect. it's very frustating, but i don't know what to do? i've tried setting something in wifi preferences' on my phone but nothing change. i've also flashed my firmware to the new one, hoping that it could fix that problem, but it didn't. someone could help me?
you can update the firmware to a newer one. this would fix your problem.

Hello.
I have a problem with WIFI on Galaxy 5 (i5500)(Europa) too. They have already changed my phone with new one, but the issue remains. So, for the second time now, I was able to connect my phone to my router for the first time, but after the first interruption or disconnection of WIFI I could not access to wifi anymore.
When I enable wifi in the phone starts ''connecting'' but then reports ''interrupted'' eventhough the signal is recognised as strong.
Firmwire version is the latest available. Router is encrypted with WPA2. Also I can access to router with my HTC Tattoo (Click).
Does anyone know the solution?
I have a decision to make(today), becouse If there is no solution to this I will change to another phone as I still can (Galaxy Spica).
Advise please.
Thanks a lot
What router do you have? have you tried with any other wifi network? i said that because my have this problem only with my router, and not for example with my girlfriend's one.
I found a little fix for my router, linksys wag54g2: open up the config page (192.168.1.1), go for wireless tab, select protection page and click on save settings. that reload the router and my phone is able to connect again.
Hi.
Thanks for your advice. There is some problem with router.. When I restart router the wifi on the phone works until swiched off or interruption becouse being out of range. When I try to connect to wifi again does not work unless I restart router again. ..catchy.. Interfering with mobile connection also makes the drop of wireless connection on my computer, so I need to restart router. I don't know the permanent solution. If anyone has any idea how repair this forever please let me know.
Best,
Thanks
Hi,
Here is my problem with my wifi with the galaxy 550.
For security reasons, my wifi network can't be detected (invisible). If i want to connect a new device by wifi, I must first set my wifi visible and then register my device.
Then I set my wifi as invisible again and the device can connect automaticaly to my network without "seeing" my wifi network.
Problem is that once i set my wifi as invisible again, my galaxy fail to connect because the network is unvisible.
Is there anyway to fix this ?
I have just read similar post on another thread and replied find it here
I ahvent installed anything, perhaps its to do with the handset if its locked to a particular carrier? just a guess and a question...
cheers

I have an answer! Hope it works for you.
My provider gave me really easy solution for wifi connection not connecting even though it was my own network with all the right info. It worked great the first time, then for some reason the phone locked in the "off" position. So I removed the battery to reboot (later learned the right way by pushing the volume button on the left and the power button at the same time)
Anyway, try this....
turn phone off - remove battery - remove sim card - wait a few minutes - reassemble - then the network should log on with no problem.....Good luck!

Hi,
did you set your APN? Type "(Name of your Operator) APN" in Google and you will find it.
Then put this things in Settings, Mobile Network, Add APN.

@trane
The issue is with WiFi. Not Mobile Operators internet connection.
I am experiencing the issue as well...HD2 doesn't pickup any APs while my HTC Surround shows all of them....
Any clue, anyone?
It seems to be a little finicky about wifi sometimes.
My biggest bugbear is that it wont connect to hidden wireless networks (not broadcasting SSID's), which a lot of companies use as extra security.
Can you see them with an android build?

uhm... you should:
1. Check your IP if your modem does not support DHCP, note that WM7 does not allow you set static IP
2. Never change your SD card if you don't want to hard reset WM7, because with WM7, your SD card is a component that can not change or remove.
I am also getting this error.
I can't find any Wifi connections
It is beacause of your SD CARD! put it out and restart then you will see that it will work. Or does you SD Card work for you? under info on settings do you have nearly the amount of space you should have with your SD Card or ls than 150 mb?

Thanks a million.
That did the Trick
I had exactly the same problem.
I could see the wirless network but when connecting WP7 would say "cannot connect to this network".
I have a wireless MAC filter enabled on my router.
The HD2 with WM6.5.5 was already added to this access list.
It turns out with WP7, the MAC address for the phone is now different.
I checked my router log, added this new MAC address & WiFi is now working fine.
Another things to try for those that are struggling.

I hate this too as I hide my network. Some things at least if they can't be set up while your network is hidden, at least you can broadcast it, set it up, and the hide it again and it will still work. but with winpnone 7, that does not even work, you have to leave it broadcasting or it will not re-connect. Even my dumb Nokia 6086 will connect to a hidden network for UMA calling. Maybe Nokia will fix this issue with winphone 7.
Cant connect to wi-fi...
Tried with adata 4gb class 6 card and without the card and no luck.
The card is space is recognized by WP7.
Transcend 8GB class 4 also no luck.
It can detect a bad password but cant connect to wi-fi if correct password.
Any ideas?
Also tried to reflash with and without card.
I have the last radio .50

Is there a way i can fix wifi connection issue ?
well you cant connect to hidden networks, but if you cant see any networks where before you could then its most likely an SD card issue.
Its well documented that wifi, laging, random restarts or no memory is to do with an incompatible SD card

Change your security settings EG: Wpa2, Wpa or Wep. But switch your mobile off first, then change the settings, then swich it on and see if all OK.
If it does'nt work, then format you sd card and start again, but leave your wifi off, until ready. Now switch on your wifi, the phone should now see it.
it is an incompatible SD card
Since nobody mentioned this one yet...
You'll also have trouble connecting if you're using MAC-based filtering to only allow specific devices on your network. (WP7 MAC address is different from your HD2's regular one, and it also changes on every boot)
OP: you'll get better help if you provide some more details! At what point are you having trouble:
You don't see any wifi networks at all
You don't see your network listed
You see your network, but can't connect to it
If it's the first, most likely WP7 is not happy with your choice of MicroSD card, and you'll have to try a different one.
I have the same problem. I can find networks but I cant connect to mine everytime i tried to. It sometimes connects sometimes doesn't. I'm using a passphrase not mac filter.
My huawei p8 lite won't find any wifi networks when I scan for some, I have tried resetting the phone to factory settings, wiped cache partition twice but still no luck. I am running android 6.0, can anyone help me fix this? because it was perfectly fine and then it stopped working all of sudden :/.

Issues with SIM card adaptor (WiFi/Bluetooth)
In case you are using a SIM card adaptor try this:
- shutdwon phone
- open SIM card slider
- restart phone
- try WiFi and Bluetooth services
Probably some SIM card adaptors cause pressure on the main board resulting in WiFi and/or Bluetooth issues.

I've logged into my wifi router, changed wifi channel and rebooted.
Wifi network was visible again on my P10 and i could login successfully!
