OK so I tried this tutorial...
I managed to see the ad hoc network on the phone, with signal strength and all, but when I try to connect, it just says "obtaining address" and then disconnects.
I'll keep on trying and let you know how it goes...
cheers

My SSID not found

i had hard time to search my ACCESS POINT at home. There is no sign of my router. Both my laptop and netbook can search just that the topaz cant find. why? help
Ok, sorry for asking... but you dont have a hidden SSID?
My device has much worse wifi than my laptop, but no problem connection when I'm right next to it. Hopefully it'll be better with future ROMs.
There's a energy saving setting under WiFi for better performance / better battery, have you tried to change that?
You do have 802.11g enabled and not just draft n?

You need to log on to your router and check the settings.

Did you try to turn off all access controls in the router?
Does the phone find *any* wireless network? Go somewhere where you could expect many AP and maybe use some wifi scanning software like WiFiFoFum.

WiFi Router - network not visible

Hi,
just wanna ask a short question. I tried to get the WiFi-Router of the Diamond working but my Win7-Laptop does not see the network the WiFi-Router should be creating.
Any ideas would be very welcome. Thanks in advance.
its ad hoc, you may have to tell win 7 to search for ad hoc as well as access pooint ?

Hello Guys,,
I have kind a problem with wifi WPA2 secured networks. It only works for a few minute. After that, it disconect, and very often after that, and after 15 minute, it goes very strange, in setting says it connect to my wifi,but i can not access the internet?? I already tried full wipe and again the same problem i have,
I thought it was the rom, after i install every diferent rom,is just the same problem with WPA2 secured networks. although i have tried with open wifi it goes fine?
Also i have change the ip setting using static ip,Gateway, and dns i have pairing with my wifi router, doesnt work either, it keeps disconect after a while.
Whats wrong with WPA2 secured networks?
I have other phone that is N****, and its wifi is normal,very fast too in WPA2,but my xperia very slow,often disconnect.
Can anybody solve this?

WIFI not work X8 - ?ROUTER settings? !

Hi guys!
I have problem,that my wifi won't work. It's connected but there's no internet connection. If I change security, i get wifi connection but after few minutes,I lost internet connection but wifi is connected. Same problem on my father HTC WILDFIRE S.
On my laptop wifi works well.
I search on web and there are some people having that trouble,but I didn't find solution. I don't want to use static ip,because I lost router connection,I must use DINAMIC IP for working router.
My router adress is 192.168.2.1
Help me what settings I must to set,change in my router settings. I attach photos from broadband router what settings I have set! Please attach your settings that I can set this on my router. I wan't my normal wifi back.
Thank you all!
Fix
Hey there 2010matej.
What router are you using? I have had similar problems that I fixed. Also, some friendly advice would be taking your internet IP off the thread. It can be useful for some people with less favorable intentions.
Also, I'm not sure if it is XPERIA X8 specific.
EDIT: Have you paid this month for internet?

Router: Canon CN WF514:
I have this problem for so time. Yes we always paid for internet!
Ok. I have asked a friend of mine he said that there are a few ways to deal with this problem:
1) A hard reset. Just use a pencil or pen to press the reset button. Hold it there for 4 seconds and the rooter will reset. This will make you start as if from the beginning.
2) Check for any 'broadcast' settings. Enable any that have been disabled.
3) Disconnect any wires and power plugs then clean them and reconnect them.
I'm sorry if this does not work. I have tried quite hard to help but unfortunately this is all I got. My friend also gave me the link to this manual just in case.

Hope it helps

Internet is slow at night so maybe this is the problem. Otherwise, try changing your channel. You may get better results. Go to speedtest.net and test your speed. Then come back. Also, connect the wire from router to laptop and it will be faster.
Hit the thanks if I helped anywhere.

I didn't fix it . Fast on laptop,slow on x8 or no connection!
i think your problem is based on PPPOE connection type.
thing you do is you connect to your wifi but not to your operator.
THINGS YOU HAVE TO DO:
->go to http://www.torrapk.com/download/apps/WIFIPPPOE_v1.0/WIFIPPPOE_v1.0.php and download wifi pppoe apk
->install (root is needed).
->NOW connect to your wifi as usual.now when icon is displayed open the pppoe apk and insert your opereators username and pasword.(probably same as on your computer/laptop)
and DONE
glad to help

I don't think that is needed at all.. Some routers are really cr*p when WPA2 encryption is used..
I'd try setting it to WEP and trying again.. If it's better, then proceed to MAC allow your devices so your network is secured.
Set the wireless channel to 11 for a strong signal too.
Then in advanced wireless settings on your x8 make sure that NEVER is selected as the sleep policy.
Remove your router in your x8 wireless settings and then set it up again..
Good luck!
Sorry I was under the impression that it wasn't working before at all and now it is. Will read further in future but I have to say that I can't refute or build on lukenda's advice.
I hard reset router again,I didn't set security,but wifi won't work on phone. I don't want to install apps to have working wifi,because I didn't have problems 2 months ago ! And my channel is set to 11!

i am almost 99% sure the problem is going to be solved by my way.
