Searched and searched, Has anyone had an issue with using the wlan SD8686 with WPA?
I can connect with no security and with WEP and I am able to browse the web.
I can still connect to the router using any of the WPA but can not get any pages to load in IE only works with wep or no security. 3 other laptops work fine.
Any idea? HTC Tech support no help.

I can't answer.. but that reminds me the WPA issue that I have with the HTC Touch ..... my Touch is unable to use any WPA ... when connected the touch just freeze .. and I have to soft-reset and hope to the Wireless not connecting before being connected before disabling the Wireless.
it seems that WPA or the wireless chip is really bad ... but don't know which one !
Shift works fine with WPA I am currently using TKIP+AES
I have had nothing but issues with my Shift and Belking N Router using WEP...
Sometimes it would connect, the majority of the time the shift couldn't see the network and it did connect it would lose connection. I tried it with WEP and also with no security and also with MAC address authentication only. Every 50 times I tried to connect, it would connect maybe once.
So, decided to use my old standard 54g Belking router. Guess what, no issue so far with no security applied. Was planning to try it with WEP later....

I live in US and unit was from UK think this could be a problem with WPA?
I have no problem with NO security and NO problem with WEP only with any type of WPA. Also searching the net, seems like the wirerless chip in the SHIFT not a very good track record, lots of driver issues

Can you tell me what the Driver VER No is on your shift tfor the network card?
My unit has the Marvell SD-8686

I had problems, sometimes the shift could not find my network, sometimes it woeked.
after setting my dlink dir655 router in b/g moder rather than b/g/draft n mode all has worked so far.
ok guys i use linksys running open source dd-wrt v23 sp2 firmware; works great; i must admit i have not used the shift on other wifi network routers....
No connection
Hi,
maybe someone can help. Since yesterday I belong tot he proud owners. But, but, I can’t get a connection to the internet over my WLAN router.
Router Netgear WPNT834. Whatever I did no luck: either I get the message: limited connectivity or only local Zugriff connection something like that.
No problem with XP notebooks, but with Shift and Vista.
Has anyone an idea what causes the problem? Is it the router?
Do you know any router you can recommend: strong signal and reliability?
Thanks

No issue with WPA here
Hi Settembrini,
So you got your Shift from Amazon.de at the same time as they delivered mine after all
Regarding the WiFi connection to the router, it seems to be some routers / chipsets.
I am also using WPA (with a Siemens SX550i router) and it worked without any problems. The Shift detected an encrypted network with hidden SSID and after I entered the SSID and the encryption password it connected immediately and with a stable connection.
WLAN access
Hi mw65719
yes, more or less same time.
So what is the conclusion? It is my Netgear router WPNT834, why I do not get a connection? Need for a new router it seems!
Thanks!

Yes same here, I just bought the new Belkin N1 Vision router and all other equipment works but the Shift can't even see the the router. I just hooked a netgear router in series with the belkin and the Shift can now see the Netgear..... Was worried for a bit there.... Really annoyed about the shift not being able to see the belkin, the Belkin wasn't cheap.
Hi,
I was not able to establish a connection to my Netgear router WPNT834, then I tried the Speedport 700 V and it worked without any problems, no special settings in Vista neccessary.
I guess you have a different Netgear router than mine.

I have a D-Link DIR-655 802.11n router. Encryption set to AES/WPA2. The DX will connect just fine, but after a few minutes of web browsing it will stop transmitting data. I remaing connected to the Wifi signal but no data is passing and web pages go to 'page not found'. If I toggle WiFi off then on again, I get a few minutes of browsing then the same issue. No such issue on laptop or desktop connected to same router.
I read elsewhere that the DX may have issue with AES or just the 802.11n band in general. Anyone else found a solution or can shed light on this?

Download the WiFi Analyzer app and make sure your router is on a channel that no other router is interfering with.
Hey guy,
I haven't been able to have my Droid 2 keep a stable connection to my linksys secured with WPA. It connects for a second, the drops out, again and again. Any solutions?
do you have security enabled on your router? if so turn off or change the security and try it
also is your router set to look for mac address if so set it not to
Never mind. Apparently froyo has issues with WMM. I disabled that and it started working again.
Hello everybody,
everytime i want to setup my N4 it doesn't show my WiFi network / or not the 2.4 Ghz variant only the 5Ghz. The 2,4 Ghz version sends the signal at WPA TKIP and i also switched it to WPA2 but nothing happens. Anyone else has problems with it or solutions?
Thanks in advance!
Got it just made an update of the router and resetted all passwords
Anybody experiences random wifi disconnections. after some time?
After some weeks of testing i couldnt eliminate the problem . the only thing that
Keeps my disconnections at minimum (2-4 in a week) is disabling wps in my router and keeping my 5ghz channel with no more than 2-3 devices connected.
Anybody with the same issues maybe found a better solution to eliminate nthe disconnections ?
My router is archer c7 v1 and shield tv gets connected at 800mbps with router.
Did you try to change the 5GHz channel you're router is using?
