Is the connection dropping out?
If the connection is working fine at the required radius, don't let what the meter says concern you.

wifi
the signal did drop out when i am out of my study room where my router sits.
it used to still connect the wifi.
any help?

Sounds obvious, but have you any new electrical equipment that may be causing interference??
This was happening to me if I tried and use wifi in the Kitchen, because of the fridge!!
I used sktools to change to G mode compatibility and it stopped.. Could just be a fluke though!!

wifi
hi all
tried that but the signal still the same

wifi - wlan problem
Hi,
i've updated my VPA III (BlueAngel) with Xplode's latest R4 image. It's a very nice work xplode!
But I can't turn my wifi on. If I go to the wireless and turn on wifi like discribed in the other threads i can see the left green led (for wifi) blinking like wifi is switched on but the software says still wifi is turned off. it also doesn't work in the comm manager.
thanks
Ebo

i will describe more specific the wifi turning on procedure(you should perform it once after boot, and then use comm manager until reboot):
1. turn on wifi trough wireless manager, it turns on and the turns off by itself
2. turn on wifi from comm manager, now you can control it from comm mnager, enable disable

thank you for the datail infos but I also tried this before and whatever I try nothing helps. It keeps like I described it:
when i do your first step
1. turn on wifi trough wireless manager, it turns on and the turns off by itself
---> the left green hardware led beginns to blink like wifi is physically enabled
but i can't get any access to it and the wireless item on the today screen says still "Wi-Fi: Unavailable"
and the secon step
2. turn on wifi from comm manager, now you can control it from comm mnager, enable disable
-->seems to has simply no effect
before with an older helmi and the original vodaphone software i also had some promblems like sometimes i had to do a soft reset before i could use wlan
is there any way to debug it like a log file or this KITL!?
i also tried a new software update and I cleaned the registry hive and i've formated the storage
@xploe i use your latest release xplode R4 lazy release and at the boot screen appears
R 1.15.00
D 1337.45
G 5.35.04.WWE

Can I ask did u notice this problem before you upgraded & were hoping to solve it via upgrade?.
If your wifi board is on its way out or the antenna has taken one blow two many and let go. No amount of flashing could help.
Did the problem only arise after flashing?.

have you tried accessing any other wifi connection outside of your workplace ? does it give you the same problem ?

Wifi problums
yes but i didnt face problum other places but on work place its working befor fine

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?

Disable Wifi tries to auto connect any available signal

I have this situation and not sure if someone can help me out. Thanks in advance.
I turn on the WLAN connection on my ATT Tilt then I turn off the phone before I go to sleep.
When I turn the phone back on, it tries to connect any available wifi signal (I also turn off my wireless router at night).
Is it a way to disable the TILT automatically tries to connect to the wifi signal upon the phone is booted up?
Thanks.

yes. Disable wlan in comm manager before u turn it off!

Well... there is a setting to keep the wifi connection on, even while sleeping. But theres no such thing as dont connect when the device wakes up, especially when its enabled to connect

How to disconnect form internet?

Hi to All,
I have recently bought new Xperia X1 for my girlfriend and I was convinced that it will allowed me to control data connection similar to the HTC Touch Pro 2 (and what I hate about Android - there is no way to control data connection and phone is permanently connected)- when I push disconnect hardware button it disconnects data connection what is great to save the battery. Do you know if it's the only way to disconnect form data connection using Communication Manager or it's possible to do some tweak?
Kind regards and thank you for your help in advance!

hey
there is the nodata app from modaco, very efficient
do a quick search and give it a try
best

There is also the attached app that can be configured to auto-close after desired inactivity timeout.

[Q] How to disconnect WIFI automatically when phone suspends?

The ROM I use (wm6.5, 3.09 driver, M2.5) does not disconnect WiFi when it suspends. It drains the battery very quickly if I forget to turn off wifi. I wanna write a script to make this function (turn off wifi or not when suspending) a configurable choice, and then map to a hardware button.
I searched on web. They said that changing the key "HTCkeepwifionwhenunattended" to 0 can disconnect wifi automatically. Some of them said that this only works before next soft reset. But for me, whenever before or all after reset, it doesn't work at all. No matter the value of this key is 0 or 1, wifi connection is kept alive after suspending.
Any one tell me why? This is common or a special problem to my rom? any other methods to turn off wifi after suspend or some idle time?
Thank you guys a lot!!

anybody knows? help pls! big thanks

you should just use the Touch X DataDisconnect

TWEAK Reply
For the longest time, I had the opposite problem: I was forever annoyed that the WLAN would automatically disconnect every time I turned the device off. Then I found two very handy utilities that can fix (or unfix, in your case) that and many many other things. I use Advanced Config and DiamondTweak. Incredibly useful pieces of software.

Thanks for the reply. But this is not what i need. I want wifi disconnect automatically when screen goes black. I often forget to turn the wifi off and after a few hours finding battery drained.

I installed it. Is "turn off wifi if no activity" the right item? I change the value to Yes, and "wifi auto off timeout" is set to 30 seconds. But it still doesn't work

I find the place. It's in ACT's menu->more settings, uncheck "keep wifi on when standby". However, it still doesn't work...
Probably this setting just modifies "HTCkeepwifionwhenunattended" in the registry， which seems not make any difference in my system.
I'm going crazy...

I finally find the reason. That's because this ROM doesn't use the default wifi switch interface. It wrote its own .exe program to turn on and off the wifi, maybe by which it bypasses the registry tweaks.
By using the system wifi switches, the modification of registry works.

why you don't try Bandswitch...??
Bandswitch has a function Take control of your connections: Switch between 2G-3G Enable and disable connections. Disabling connections makes imposible to use them so you know they wont generate traffic data. Stablish and close connections. Set a time frame where connections wont be allowed (ie, when you are sleeping) saving money and battery.. Turn off/on Bluetooth and Wifi with or without time limite. When the limit expires then It is set to off state
but if you want to know the registry tweak to disable or enable the wifi connection , like here HKLM\COMM\TNETWLN1\Parms\dot11SupportedRateMask = 1 (DWORD decimal) is enabled

In advanced config app,under the Network sub category you will find "Wi-fi auto off timeout".Set the time as per your requirements.
