Wifi connection issues - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi all,
After connected to wifi, I still could not get any internet connection. Anyone knows why? Is there any additional settings i need to check/uncheck?
Thanks.

If your router/access point has DHCP enabled, there shouldn't be any additional settings.
On the TFLO Settings tab, open "Menu" -> "Wireless Networks", then "Advanced". Is "Status" associated, and a valid IP for your network?

DHCP IP assignment
I had a hard work of IP assignment with my Diamond initially. Could connect to Wifi with all of those security configs (WEP/WPA/WPA2) but could not fix IP. I had to change IP lease time from 3 weeks to 3 hours with my D-Link 624. Than it worked perfectly.
Hope it helps.

Hi,
My status is associated, and there is IP address assigned. I wonder what's wrong. The funny thing is, my Asus P750 is able to connect and surf.

Did you solve your issue? If not, try to change WIFI power management to max performance.

WLAN with static IP

I can connect my WLAN at home without problems. But a DHCP server is running there.
At work I have WLAN to but without DHCP server so I need to set a static IP.
So how can I set dynamic IP for WLAN at home and static IP for WLAN at work?
On Wifi settings first card I can see both WLAN (home and work). I habe tried to set "home" on "internet" and "work" on "firm" (network device setting).
On the second card I can select "internet" and "firm" as network devices. For "internet" I have selected "dynamic IP" and for "firm" it is "static IP" with the right addresses.
But if I want to connect the WLAN at work I cant get a connection. And I cant see the static IP set on network device (it shows 0.0.0.0 every time).
Any help? Have nothing found at manual und nothing here with search.
Thx & regards,
Purzel
Same here.
I have to set up a manual wlan (IP and DNS). How?
TNX
any news ?
You cannot set Static or Dynamic DNS per connection.
The WiFi adapter is either running in DHCP mode, or static IP mode.
you'll have to change it every time you connect.
When yopu went into the network card while set to internet, you set it to dynamic.
when you then went into it while set to work, you set it to static.
when you set it back to internet, it stayed at static as that was the last change you made.
there may be some third party stuff out there that will allow you to do what you want, but i don't know of any of the top of my head as i've never had to use any.
Hi.
I have a question to the network adapter settings.
At home i use a static ip to connect to WLAN. But if i try to connect to the internet via GPRS-Connection, it failed. When i set the network adapter to dynamic ip, the GPRS-Connection works. Is it right, that the GPRS-Connection use the same network adapter that i use for the WiFi ?!
Perhaps i only must change the settings and everthing is good
thx

WLAN Problem Diamond

ok, first of all, i checked every single thread on this page hoping to get a solution for my problem.
HTC Diamond, D-Link DWL-900AP+ Access Point.
My Diamond can "see" the Access Point, but is unable to connect with it.
Authentification WPA-PSK
Encryption TKIP
Networkkey Manually inserted and 100% correct.
Hook set at IEEE802.1x
EAP Typ = Smartcard or security certificate (but it's greyed out)
Network Card connects to Internet
From Server given IP Adress (hook set) DHCP on Access Point enabled
MAC Filters disabled
I also played around with the available network tabs.
I have vodafone DE, vodafone internet, company network or ISP
The the slider of the energy saving modus ist set to best performance.
What the hell is going wrong????
I also owe a HTC Touch Elfin and have no problems to access my network/internet.
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated
thank you
try deleting your network saved setting from list, make sure network card connects to internet, not work, find access point, and enter your password again.
this works for me in similar situations.
works if you start fresh, and not trying to connect with the same settings. i dont know why but has saved my ass a few times.
Also, try changing the encryption from TKIP to AES and see if that works....
I have the same problem! It's something about DHCP. My Diamond connects to my home wifi onli if I set the IP (which belongs to my phone on access point) address in the properties of network adapter.
HI did you try to put the host address of a site?
write 64.233.167.99 instead of google.it in case you can see the page the problem is the dns not resolved and insert manually in your phone connection

Same here, it looks like a DHCP time-out or routing problem. I've set up a DHCP server with a small pool of adresses on the acces point itself and now my Diamond always connects correctly. Before that, my Diamond would state that i had entered a invalid security key.
diamond connects but i cannot visit any website
Hi,
I have a similar problem. My diamond gets an ip address from dhcp, connects to dwl-900ap+ but i am not able to open any website (I tried to open some web with url and with its ip address too) - tried opera and IE too. In opera i get a "could not locate remote server" error. (Looks like a DNS problem?) I am not even able to open the AP's configuration web with diamond. Every other wifi enabled equipment I tried (1 notebook with win vista, 1 with XP, 1 with debian linux, nokia n95 with symbian and e-ten m700 with win mobile 5) works without a single problem. I also tried to reset the AP and my diamond - without success.
I didn't change any setting on the AP except for setting up a WEP encryption (i know, i know, it's not a strong encryption ), the SSID and the AP's ip address. Everything else is default. My dhcp server is not the access point. DHCP runs on a similarly configured router with wifi AP (diamond connects without problem).
Any idea/solution? thanks

problem connecting to the house internet

Hi this is my first time on a site and I just wonder if anybody can solve my problem!
I,ve read a few posts and set my xda llI so that in connections my network card connects to work!Also have done all the rest and set it to internet just in case as well
My Isp in connections window is on the advanced tab and select networks on the network Management is set to My Isp.
my Wirles Lan Manager is status connected to network
My ssid is the one that all the house computors are set to,my mode is Infratructure and Tx is Auto.My channel is 6
my bssid is 00-18-2D etc etc.
My Mac is 00-09- etc ,etc.
My IP.169.254.168.73
signal quality is good
I,ve been onto the 192.168.0.1 website and added the mac address of the xda lli but when I try to get the internet on the xdalli to connect it justs says default page. I cannot seem to connect. is this normal or do I have to go through O2 to pay for another internet connection besides my home address one.Have I missed something out!Help would be greatly appreciated! thanks

Hi,
Your IP of 169.x.x.x means that you are trying to use DHCP to get an ip address but haven't been supplied one by your router..
The ip addres of your router is 192.168.0.1, so it may be sensible to setup your router to allow a dynamic address range of 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.110 (say) - when anyone tries to connect using a dynamic address (using dhcp), they'll be given an address in this range.
So, initially check if DHCP is enabled.
Do you have a laptop that connects using a dynamic ip address (ie not static - ie not implicitly defined) - if so then DHCP _is_ already working and there's another problem.
If this is the case, I'd initially disable any kind of mac-filtering or security until you get a simple connection going..
Sorry, if this isn't too clear - I'm tired - what router are you using?
Kev
First hand it can depend on your router
I have had problems connecting with Virgin broadband routers for instance.
Have you tried connecting elsewhere?
Also what type of security do you have on your router?
One more thing to try
Check under the "Network Cards" settings when disconnected and select "the internet" from the drop down menu.
Hope this helps
clearing the way so that I understand correctly!

My router is a netgear dg834GT.I,ve looked at the range and the range for 192.168.0.1 actually goes from 192.168.0.2 upto 192.168.0.254 so the range should be there. how would I know if the router is DHCP, is there a way of seeing this? The filter would be set up where for the mac address?Is there a way of changing the isp on the phone so that its range is within the 192.168.0.1 range?the only security that I have is the routers own and the avg antivirus.would disabling the avg help!
thanks for your response!

If you haven't set up mac filtering, then it won't be a problem.. if you have, then there should be an option to disable/remove any you've input - build security up from a working setup.
Have you (can you borrow) a laptop that you can setup wireless with a dynamic ip address and check that connects; if that's okay then the router is setup correctly.
So I the Alpine comes up with "connected to network" but the ip address is 169.x.x.x ..
This means that the Alpine has not been allocated a usable ip-address by the router for some reason and you'll get nowhere until this happens.
Your other PCs.. are they set to dynamic ip addresses - I guess so as you have no room for static addresses. You should probably check they're all dynamic as if (say) you've allocated a static ip address of 192.168.0.2 to one of them and then DHCP tries auto-allocating addresses, I guess there could be a conflict (don't know how clever dhcp is). Usually I would set the DHCP range to 192.168.0.100 -> 192.168.0.200 (allowing 100 different dynamic addresses).
Have you checked that authentication is set top 'Open' and Data Encryption 'Disabled' on the Alpine; and ensure you've disabled (temporarily) all router security..?

Thanks kev for replying.
I have a hard wired lead to the router for one computor and 3 laptops connected by wifi and another computor connected by wifi.
the range or should I say the ip addresses are 192.168.0.3,192.168.0.4
upto 192.168.07.I,m at work at the moment but as soon as I get home tonight I'll set the wep key to disabled is there any other thing on the router that I need to do?
Can't think of anything else...
But at least you know DHCP is working if the other PCs are getting ip addresses okay.
And you know the wireless is working...
So it does look likely that it will be something to do with WEP/WPA encryption... (I guess you've got it setup at home), hence why the router isn't allocating you an ip-address.
If you can't get it going, it may be worthwhile doing some sceenshots of the router configuration pages (or config files)...
What I can tell you is that what you are doing looks correct and you have everything setup so you can go on the internet whilst at home using the Alpine. Mine uses the router whilst at home and GPRS whilst out.

The dg834GT is pretty much the one that Virgin use, like I said in my earlier post.
I have found these particular routers to be a problem (sometimes) with my Alpine.
You should try to update the firmware.

Well Done Kev!
It was the "open"on the phone and putting "open" on the router.I had to intiallely disable the wep key.then when I got connected,I reactivated the WEP key and I could not connect.So on the phone I unticked the automatically connect to my name of my router name and reput in my encryption key again and I was in and On line.Thanks to both of you(Kevcal and Voxshots) for helping me.Definately could not have done it without you Pair.I like the idea of using the screenshots so I,ll post a screenshot of all the settings on the phone and computor so that anybody else will be able to resolve there problems with all credits going to you people on the bottom!
Very happy to have helped and glad you sorted it out

[Q] IP setting in HD7 (WIFI)

hi everyone,i bought HD7 last night and i have a problem with wifi.i want to connect my HD7 to my wireless routher. i must to set my HD7 IP.i can see HD7 IP but i cant change it.how can i do it? thanks
There is currently no way to set a Static IP address in Windows Phone 7, you'll have to wait for an update to come out that allows this.

You shouldn't need to manually configure your IP for the phone, the router will most likely assign your phone one if your DHCP is enabled (default on most routers). If you are wanting to connect it to your current home network and you have a wireless router, first you will need to go into the router configuration and set it to broadcast your SSID (if not already enabled). At this time the HD7 cannot connect to hidden networks (I don't see a point in hiding your SSID anyway, use better encryption, and a strong password with numbers, letters[upper and lower case], and symbols[if supported]). You can then use you HD7 to connect to your home network, once connected to your network go back into the router and look at your network. It should list all the devices currently connected to the network along with their currently assigned IP addresses. If you really need to, now that you know what IP address your router has assigned to your phone you can set your router to give your phone a static IP but really as long as you leave the router broadcasting the SSID your phone should have no problem connecting to the WiFi it should save the key and SSID, and it will get a new IP at regular intervals.

[Q]Wifi droping problem

I have problem: My wifi signal drop every 60 secs approximately,on every stock rom from JVQ to the newest JVU. Last rom where wifi works great was JVQ after that version i have same problem in every single STOCK rom,JVZ,JW1,JVU... (on CM7,ICS port,MIUI I dont have that problem).
Anyone know how can i fix it? (sorry if my english is not to good)
Known problem. There is a workaround however. Set your wifi routers dhcp lease time from 0 (or never) to, for example, 120 mins. Also remove ip address reservation (if set) in your routers settings.
Used to have the same problem at android 2.2, but the 2.3.3 update fixed it. I used to assign a static IP to my device at home, that helped for the time being.
I have INTRACOM JetSpeed IAD-Wp2 router and cant find non of these settings.
Try going to 192.168.1.1 in your webbrowser on your pc, and try getting access with username and password "admin". That should allow you to configure some settings, including assigning a certain IP address to your phone.
On your phone, go to wifi settings, advanced, and enable "Use static IP address". Then configure it's settings.
You should refer to the routers manual to find out the setting for the dhcp lease time and ip address reservation. Routers and their names for these settings can differ slightly from each other.
If you set static ip in your phones wifi settings, you may not be able to use wifi anywhere but in your home network.
So the problem is my router or the phone? All these solutions that you have proposed are not long-term right? It will help me just when I am at home but if I go out somewhere that settings will not be of some help right?
The settings I posted were looked up specifically for your router, milanche911. But indeed, it'll only fix it when you're at home; you'll have to turn using a static IP off if you're elsewhere.
Does it happen to you no matter what router you use? I only had it happen to me at home, at other people's places things were fine.
try this application
it is WiFi scanner and signal checker... in config is setting scan Frequency 0-30 seconds and including the radar and WiFi sources GPS locator ...
good luck.

If the issue is the "wifi bug" which has been covered in the leaked rom threads, the culprit is the phone.
As a long-term solution, there's no harm in setting the wifi routers dhcp lease time to finite value and removing the address reservation, so that the router is not forced to give your phone always the same ip. At this point, you should not change the ip to static in your phones settings, this is what will prevent you using wifi outside your home.
Now you should find a way to check these settings in your routers configuration.
Thank you people! Thank you for your help, the problem was that I had been logging into the router settings with admin / admin and I got the complete setup for just a basic settings. Trick was that I log in with admin / tzlkisonpk and thus get full router settings where I finally found the "lease time" setting. Configured for two hours and now everything is fine. Thank a lot once again! Cheers!
Glad it worked out
tap on the keypad of your phone - >*#*# 4636 # * # * and Wi-Fi information, you can find something to help ...
