Unfortunately, I've always had the same problem with my secured network with both my MDA(HTC WIZARD) and my Wing(HTC Herald). Do you have Dlink router, by any chance?
Originally change the wifi settings, removing 4X mode and placing the TX rate to 11mb and not 22mb fixed the problem but the problem is back (but so is the 22mbps apparently..)
Just changed it back to 11mbps and it worked!!!

i have my network runnin off a linksys wireless b router model befw1154..and yea i tried changin them settins and still nothing like i said it still sees it and tries to connect but wont ....

I've got a similar problem. Secured network at home (Dlink 614+), won't connect. It'll go from connecting to unavailable, then available again. I've narrowed it down to the router (I think). Every time I change a setting on the router, it reboots itself. Directly after the reboot, I can connect with my wing and stay connected. As soon as I disconnect and try to reconnect, it won't do it. So my only fix so far is to reboot the router when I get home and keep the wifi on.
One time, I went out to get a haircut and connected to a wifi network around there, then as I came home, it was able to connect. Maybe it has to do with the wing "refreshing" a cache or something.
I haven't tried the 11mbps thing posted above. I'll have to try it when I get home. Hopefully that'll fix it, because constant rebooting of the router or finding another wifi spot isn't a real solution for me. I hope the wing will get a software upgrade or something that'll make it more compatible with more routers.

I have the same 614+, so it might work for you. I mean, it still happens but not as much as it did before.

NO WIFI connection after upgrade RUU_Prodigy_2170706 FRE

Anyone has an idea how to solve this?
i have installed the new RUU_Prodigy_2170706_21707106_20710_QTEK_FRA_Ship ROM on my qteck9100 and all went fine, all works perfectly execpt WIFI
Now each time i want to connect to my wifi network its goes on a neverending seraching, trying to connect end nothing.
I tryed wiht the WAP security on, without any security , without an mac adress filter but no way to connect.
i tryed also to go back to ROM RUU_Prodigy_2080702_102_11310_QTEK_FRA_Test that worked perfectly but i have an error message saying that the rom is not compatible with the device..
suggestions are welcome
thamks
sorry cant help too much, im in the same boat, tryed two different roms now, but no go
finds the network, asks if you want to connect, then after a few mins it stops trying to connect!
Also in the available networks list, they stay available even tho some of them i passed a mile or so ago in my car!
I finally could install RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE ROM and with the DJVW HTC Wizard Optimizer the Wifi wrok perfectly
with the old 2.08 test and the Optimizer,the wifi connection was fine.
Maybe with this last ROm 2,17 the Optimizer don't work ..
im running Custom_RUU_Wizard_1050402_101_11210_O2_ENG_CID.exe.html
but still not working for me, whats this, DJVW HTC Wizard Optimizer ? cheers
DJVW HTC Wizard Optimizer installed and still the same, ohwell,
I had the same problem until I adjusted the NIC power settings to favour better performance it would then connect..
I read somewhere on here that another user had to stand nearer to the AP to connect but once connected all was fine?
same issue for me ...

i had the k-jam ontop of the router, and nothing
I tryed the WIFI connection in a public place with a provider called
"monzoon" and its worked fine.
As this acces is a 802.11b i start really to belive that "Wizard optimizer" do not work with the new ROM
At home with my Belkin Pre-N router that works only on mode "G" and "B+G" i still have no connection.
There is no change if i change performance setting and by the way with the piblic network i was on "best battery" and not on "best performance"

problem with T MOBLE WING
I have the same problem , I even did try connect to my home Wifi it show connected ,but doesn't open to the website I want to ,can some one help,thanks
I had the same problem, I installed batterystatus, and checked the option to disable gprs when wlan is on, and now it works fine...
You don't need batterystatus to do this (the software just does it automatically for you), you can do it by yourself by disabling "data connection" in the connection manager whenever you turn on the wifi radio
-Hope it helps
t-mobile wing wifi problems
I had a similar problem with my wing. It would connect to unsecured WIFI networks and work flawlessly but when I connect to a secured network it would work for about 1 min then just hang while downloading a web page. If you device is doing this send it back to t-mobile and get a new one. This is what I had to do. hopefully you have a warranty.
I just got my T-Mobile Wing and I think I have the same problem. It just doesn't want to work with my WPA-secured Wi-Fi. When I switch WPA off, it works fine.
Did anyone else had a problem like this?
Called T-Mobile, they have nothing like that in their knowledge base.
I got this problem when i installed HTC 10 Button comm manager. I uninstalled it and WiFi works again.
Hope this helps
i have somewht of a similar problem, since ive had my Wing i have been unable to use my wi-fi, when i turn it on it says connected and shows me the lil meter and everythin but when i try browsing or downloadin it just hangs and does nothing until i turn the wi-fi off...i have no clue why i have learned to live without it but would appreciate any help...thanks
Try this it work for me. Whenever you want to connect to secure wpa do this before you make the connection
Start > Setting > Connections > Wifi Status > Power Mode > Move the slide "Best Performance"
Your wing should be able to connect to secure wpa.
Hope this help.

Make sure you disconnect from edge/gprs before you try to surf after you are connected to the wifi.

how exactly do i do this? is it what was explained about in the battery status menu and check marking the box 'disable proxy for wi-fi'...?
You can click on the little E or G on top and click on Disconnect.

i dont know how i ever survived without wi-fi....WOW....thank u
Thank Ayodeji13. He answered this in the 5th post. ^_^ But, yea, I've done the same thing before and was lucky to realize where the problem was coming from. Unfortunately, it didn't help me with the crappy wifi signal that my Wizard provided me. The wing, on the other hand, is MUCH better at this.

Thanks mate... I too was having issues connecting to wifi... its kind of strange... it was connecting to my home network for sometime but later it suddenly stopped. It will connect to other networks but not to my secured network. Today I tried the setting you mentioned and surprisingly my phone connected to my home network... I wonder why because this setting should improve the performance and not the connectivity itself... Thanks again
you can add me to the list of people with wifi issues. I can't connect to my wireless router and I'm stand two feet away from it. It shows up but when I try to connect it says unavailable. I've done everything from turning the data off, to setting the power to best performance but it won't connect.
I need help... Whenever I connect it says I'm connected but actually I'm not. Yesterday I could view directions using live search but couldnt browse the web, not i cant do both. it gets stuck on the locating... part of loading the website. sometimes it gets to opening but the KB bar doesnt come up and it gives me some 500 internal error, or page doesn't exist. I cant do the best performance thing because im using touch it 2.3 rom and i dont have wifi status anymore.
WHY DO YOU HAVE TO REMOVE THAT STUF?!! URGH! I dont even have msn!
But anyways, can someone help me connect to the internet?...
TRY THIS
I have the same problem, i i manage to fix my wifi connectivity by editing the registry.....try this at your own risk.....but swear it works for me. i used total commander to edit registry and go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > HTC > Comm Manager >
then you will see folders 0 - 8 or some only have 0 - 7 ,delete folders 6 and up ........ ( I JUST MOVE MINE instead of DELETING IT< I MOVE IT TO STORAGE CARD SO IF SOMETHIN GOFF UP I CAN JUST PUT IT BACK )....
SOFT RESET then try turn your wifi ON , connect to your network.... til me if this works for u guys...
i think the value of those folders are bum hehehehe thats why it wont connect......., after connecting to your wifi secured or not , it will create another folder and add those folders back by default...but this time the good settings lolz its worth a try !
Ok this is realy frustrating. My wing was getting on my secured home network and npw it dose not. I read all the post and have tried some (the ones that I could understand). I dont have the option under battery status to disable gspr or gpsr. And my system is vista 64 so total commder dosen seem to work for reg settings(edits). I can conect to unsecure networks but I cant to my hone (secure) network. I have in the past but it dsent ssem to work now?

Wi-Fi Disconnected~

Running CM3.6.5 and cannot get the wifi to work. When I turn it on after a few seconds it says "Disconnected" right underneath it.
On the wifi networks I try to connect to my home router but it doesn't do anything. the signal strength:excellent securitypen, i hit the connect button but nothing.
I've turned off and on the wifi with no luck. Been searching for help but can't find any. If this has happened to you and you've fixed it let me know how i can do this.
Thanks!~
Have you only had this problem on one network? At work, every few days I loose my connection to our Linksys. A coworker's iPhone also fails to connect, but another coworker's Dell laptop can connect fine. Watching logcat I can see it attempting to connect, then spitting out an authentication failure error.
Restarting the Linksys seems to solve the problem. Not sure what is special about the two phones that makes everything crap out.
the only wifi network i use is my home one right now. haven't thought about restarting it. gonna do it and hopefully that will be the fix i've overlooked ><
/slaps his forehead.....
restarted my router and that fixed the problem. for some reason i've never had to do this but now i know.
thanks for the post! wifi working now.
Glad that helped. I'm still a little stumped about why it's doing this, but it sounds like we have the same issue. Restarting the router is easy enough though.
Now at home, I have a Linksys running Tomato firmware, and it never boots either of the two G1s we have. So it's just the stock router firmware for me, and it only affects G1s and iPhones (or at least, it affects them and not a laptop with Intel wireless).
i am having the same issue. does anybody knows if its a rom problem? I am running cyanogen 4.3.1. in college, where my laptop can connect fine, the g1 can not, and has a very low signal level while laptop shows excellent.

[Q] Wi-Fi Woes

Ok I have a very iritating problem.
My captivate works amazing in all ways... except one. When I'm at home connected to Wifi, within a few mins of me putting the phone down, or even mid use, the wifi will just stop working. The icon still shows it to be connected however no apps are able to actually get internet. A quick pulldown of the quick access menu and tapping wifi off and back on again gets it going great... for another 5 mins. Then the same thing happens.
Its been like this ever since I got the phone, even after flashing different roms. Now i'm running a Linksys Wireless - N router - maybe they're not playing nice?
I dont think its a hardware fault because when I serve wifi, IE the captivate is an infrastructure mode access point for 3g, it stays on consistently and my laptop can tether for 2 hours or more.
Anyone know what might be causing this?
Thanks
When you have wifi on, go to menu settings and 'Wireless and network'. In Wi-Fi settings you can change the Wi-Fi timeout.

Try goin to settings->wireless and networks-> wifi settings (menu key)advanced and set the sleeping policy to never
I've done that...
i *Think* i've fixed it. I was using WPA2 IPK encryption or whatever.. Switched back to the 64 bit crappy WEP. Wifi was on all night and all morning with no cut out.
Might be just another linksys-is-crap situation.
HI, I figured I keep my wifi woes within a singe thread so.
I have an old D Link WBS 2310 router.
I recently got a message from AT&T that I'm near my data limit. This surprised me as my last cycle I barely got near 500mb. Since my bill isn't ready yet, I can't see exactly what it is I'm doing to use so much data.
TO be safe I figured I'd pull out my old router and set it up. After hours of hassle getting it to work on my new computer, I wasn't able to get my Captivate to hook up to it.
My laptop works fine. It gets a fast wifi signal, but my phone just says "Obtaining IP address" for a while and then gives up.
My phone gets wifi at work, at friends', at coffee shops - but not at home.
I've tried this with no encryption, WEP encryption and WPA2 encryption.
Each time my laptop would hook up to the wifi but my phone wouldn't.
I searched some other forums and found similar problems with HTC phones.
Some answers say that D Link sucks. But that answer applies to other brands as well.
Do I need "n" wifi, rather than "g"?
I don't want to buy another router only to find it still doesn't work.
Any help?

part of the IEEE 802.11n standard is backward compatibility with all previous 802.11 standards IIRC, so there should be no need to buy a new n device.
HOWEVER, i am also having issues with my wi-fi and my g capable router. i will meddle around with some phone and router settings to see if i can fix this, this is one area were i can actually be of some use on this forum
Hi. It turned out the wifi was broken on my captivate. I reset it to stock and it's all better. It had been working up to the previous day so I assumed that it was still working. The router goes down intermittently in general, so I've ordered a new one to see what's up.
Hi, I'm back! So after resetting the phone and getting wifi to actually connect (rather than being stuck searching for IP address), I'm now having the exact same problem is the OP. The OP seems to have solved this by switching to WEP. I tried this and it doesn't work. My timeout is set to never. Also, it's the same at home (I replaced my router) as well as at Starbucks and a friends house.
I'm connected, but can't download or sync. It works initially and then stops, and then comes back in briefly and then stops, all the while "connected." Sometimes I can fix it temporarily by turning off wifi and then turning it back on.
SO what's the deal? Is it a hardware problem? Is there some secret magic code?
edit: Just disabled encryption - same problem.

Serious Wifi issue on Kaiser...need fix ASAP!

I'm really astonished that this is happening...and I can't figure out why. My neighbors just got a wireless router hooked up, and i get about 1 bars worth of signal at my house. It is an unsecured connection and my Kaiser keeps connecting to it whenever I turn on Wifi. It will no longer connect to my wifi network no matter what I do. I click on my network in wifi settings and hit 'connect' and then it connects to my neighbors again...I delete it, start over...and no matter what I do it always connects to it. It's obviously some sort of glitch...any ideas on how to fix without a hard reset which is what I'm about to do because it is so frustrating. Everything I use is wireless, and nothing else was affected...just my Kaiser. Anyone had this happen to them before?

get your own internet connection and stop stealing signal from your neighbors!.
On another note, try to set your connection instead of best battery try best performance settings>wifi>advanced>power(sorry dude, if these are not the correct names, but I'm on my touch 2 phone with WM 6.5 spanish rom ..)
I'm on stock AT&T Tilt Rom WM6.1 I've tried all settings available through the Windows UI. So it must be somewhere in the registry that I need to change. I can delete all networks and scan for new ones...two come up...mine, and the new (neighbors)...I've been connecting to mine automatically for years now....and even if I click connect on my network...after its all said and done with the logging in...it connects to the wrong one still...grrrrr
