Any ideas on problems with Wi-Fi losing network key? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi
I've got a problem with a Diamond which keeps losing it's connection to our wireless network. The Diamond is used in a school with multiple wireless access points and a WPA-TKIP key. The Diamond works fine for a short while then loses it's connection and asks for the network key. Obviously this is quite a major problem when a person is trying to sync etc. Does anyone have any ideas on what might be causing the problem and how it can be fixed?

wifi problem

hey all..just bought my diamond..have the same issue with wifi connection at home..it just wont work..its connected..says its connection..have all the ip settings etc but just wont connect to internet..
saw the thread before about this but see there was no outcome..thread just stopped do'h
so can anyone help me ? ive never had problem like this with all my other wm phones lol
i dont have any problem connect using WIFI @ home.. did u set the network correction? (if use wireless , each set got it own network point & password) did u set correctly
I'm experiencing some problem like this also.
With my Hermes, I was able to get a working WiFi connection @ home. With my Diamond I simply can not. My Diamond can see the WiFi network and than wants to log in to the network, but it gets rejected for what reason. I tried every possibility in my router (WPA1, WPA2, even unsecured, Turbo off etc --> not random, I know enough bout networking to know what I'm doing). It's really strange, by a friend of my I can connect to his WiFi network. Let's me conclude that it is my router.....
hmm not sure about router being problem

UPDATE:
after flashing Elite 1.0 the problem is solved. I can now login to my router by WiFi....Don't know what the problem was with the orginal rom 1.35.404.4 NLD

Wifi - connection lasting < 15seconds

I just got my diamond today and am having problems with the Wifi on the device. I connect to my wireless router which is using WPA-PSK (with TKIP) security which other WM6 devices can connect to without a problem. When i connect with the diamond, the connection last 10-15 seconds before dropping out and reconnecting after 30-60 seconds.
Is anyone else having this problem? has anyone discovered a fix?
Hi,
I have had exact the same problem using HTC Touch, HTC Touch Diamond and HTC TyTN II. I have tried many things without success. No matter it is a secured network (WPA/PSK TKIP) or just open, the WIFI connection gets hanged after half a minute (or something). I think this is a wlan communication bug in HTC wlan adapter/driver which happens with some accesspoints.
What kind of router do you have? I have a D-Link DSL-2740B which is a Wirless Router/ADSL Modem with Wireless N1. I'll have to try it on some other routers and see what happens
Make sure your settings are for "the internet" and not "work". i had this same issue and this fixed it.
D-link are widely known to fu**-up wi-fi. Try a different router!
Tilt is without WiFi

I have an unlocked AT&T Tilt (HTC TyTN II) and I too cannot hold a connection with any AP. I would love a solution to this issue so I can save on data charges and access a feature that is suppose to be available with this phone!
Same problem.
I have the same problem. The Internet is working less than 1 min then nothing.
Any solution until now (except a disconnect/connect procedure)?
Regards.
same problem here too, to bad this phone dont use symbian
if the problem still persist im back on nokia

Connection problems 3G/Wifi

Hi guys!
I have a Touch Diamond 2. It's great and certainly an upgrade from my Touch Cruise!
I have a strange problem though. Whenever I try to connect through 3G (T-Mobile Netherlands), immediatly after it makes the connection, it gives the dialog 'cannot connect etc'. 3G is truly connected but no data is coming in.
Now I have found where the problem lies, sort of. 3G works fine when I don't configure my home Wifi connection. Whenever I configure that, 3G stops working. It doesn't matter if Wifi is turned on or off. 3G does have a dynamic ip, where my Wifi connection requires a static IP. But I make all these settings in the Wifi part of the configuration screen, the IP details are under the 802.11 b/g network card.
This used to work flawlessy on my Cruise. Anyone have a solution? Thanks!
good morning. as you are with tmobile i'd suggest you are having the same problems as me with tmobile uk. for some reason tmobile sets up a proxy server in your 3g data connection setup, this caused huge problems for me but clearing it solved them all.
try this first and see how you go.
Possible, but where exactly do I change the proxy settings of the 3G connection?

Hey that's a coincidence, just read the same question at GoT
I have similar problems.
Now and than my HSDPA connection works good, but at some moment I just can't reach any website.
Disconnecting and reconnecting to HSDPA sometimes helps, and sometimes I just have to wait a few minutes and than it works again.
I also tried another DNS (OpenDNS) but it doesn't solve the problem,
Proxy settings can be found at (I assume your dutch):
Instellingen> Meer> Verbindingen> Verbindingen> Mijn proxyserver instellen
At my TD2 is no proxy set, so thats not the cause.
Hope sombody else can help!
Do you have a static IP for WIFI as well? I kinda found out that setting WIFI on dynamic IP solves the 3G problem, so somehow they must be connected. But this should be able to work, it's almost as if 3G 'takes over' the static IP from the WIFI settings, but the connection settings from my 3G are offcourse set to dynamic.
I had exactly the same problem with my D2. I also had it on my Cruise with the later ROMs. The official HTC 6.1 ROM did not have this problem.
I experience it when I set up my wifi 802.11b/g network card in the phone to have a static IP address and set the default gateway. If I use DHCP there is no problem.
Setting the wifi card up on the phone DEFINITELY screws up the cellular data connection.

I use a dynamic IP, for me it doesn't work.
With my dear old Wizard (MDA Vario) I had no problem at all with the same settings!
yup thought i was the only one with this problem need a fix for it soon man otherwise we are gettin bumped for not havin the settings coz we on t-mobile
I solved it temporarily by setting Wifi to dynamic IP, but this prevents me from connecting at work. I'll send HTC an e-mail, let's see if they are willing to hot-fix this one
for me i find that the web sites work but any app that requires to go online ie facebook, msn, sky fire etc jus dont work wen you try to connect online......... stupid t-mobile
My connection problems are gone.
Maybe I (we) encountered hickups with the T-Mobile proxy-server....
maybe You can help me.
I have a MDA V (germany T-Mobile) and i can not connect to my AP here at Home.
I have a ASUS WL500g configured as AP behind my Firewall/Router. All other device in my house, a Laptop, a Netbook and a 'WII' working fine!
All get the IP from the Router, the AP works transparent.
D2 will not connect. The Mac-Address from the D2 is configured in the AP, and i can see the router statuspage and see the MAC of the D2 sometimes in the list. But only as "associated" and never as "associated authorized" as the Laptop here in example:
-------------------------------------------------
Stations List:
-------------
00:23:76:yy:xx:xx associated <-D2
00:1C:BF:yy:xx:xx associated authorized <- Laptop
--------------------------------------------------
I configured a lot in the settings, but i cant get the D2 online with wifi.
Can someone plz help a bit?
-
other question: if i manage the problem some day, is it possible to configure the Networksettings of the D2 device in the way that the device only use USB and te WiFI-Connection to access the internet? I hat it that the device use mobile-internet connection without asking me to do so.
Same problem

I was experiencing the same problem, only with the difference that I am using 3 different Wi-Fi adapter settings every day (for 3 different networks - two with fixed IP and one with DHCP enabled. Most elegant solution that I came up with was a small, but very handy application called "WiFi Profiles". Settings for WiFi adapter are easily changed by choosing a profile that you want to use and applying it. Before you disconnect from WiFi network, you just set adapter to DHCP, and after that your GPRS/3G/HSDPA connection works like a charm. By the way, I am proud owner of Touch HD but I am using Dutty`s Topaz based rom V3.4 XTREME SHIP.

New HD7 user.....what happened to wifi...

Ok guys, i have been scouring the interwebz for an explanation about this weird problem that seems to be affecting a lot of users.
I can't seem to connect to secure Wi-Fi networks and this is annoying me. Have you guys found this to be an issue as well?
Sometimes i will get "incorrect" password, and other times it will try connecting forever and never do anything.
If so, how does one circumvent this? Or is it HTC's fault because they false advertised.
I have had no problems connecting to any network, be it open, wep, or wpa psk.
I have noticed however, that the initial connection can be problematical with a weak signal. Try getting a good strong signal the first time you attempt to authenticate.
I have that problem too at work (WPA2 I think)
It works fine at home and other places though
Strange
it may be that your company implements MAC address restrictions on the wireless access points, so the DHCP server will not give you an address if you're not using an approved device.
I have had no problems connecting to WiFi on my TMOUS HD7.
I have the same problem.
I keep typing the CORRECT password ... but I keep getting "INCORRECT" passord.
Tried switching the phone off ... taking the battery out and starting it up again ... no go!
Tried a Reset to Factory Defaults ... no go!
Please help!!!

[Q] Wifi problem with a twist

not sure if anyone had this same problem. I searched the forum but looks like i'm the only who has this problem.
my O2x can easily obtain and connect to my home WIFI network. the strength is good to excellent. but it couldn't connect to internet at all. All other devices can connect to internet thru this network except O2x. I look from the router setup and it can see that O2x is indeed connected. This problem started about a few days ago where before that (since last month) it could connect the internet but when the screen was off, i needed to reestablish the connection with my home wifi. Now, it connects easily but no connection to internet. I go to other network (my brother's wifi), O2x can easily connect and use internet although both networks are pretty similar in settings.
any idea to solve this? or workaround it?
thanks
Try running traceroute in a terminal window from your phone?
Where does the traffic die?
