Hi
First, I am rooted with superoneclick and on EC02. I replaced the wpa supplicant from an adhoc working cersion so I could upgrade to EC02. After successful upgrade to EC02, I then went back in and replaced the wpa supplicant file so I could connect to my AndroidTether, which works. I can connect to any other network as well as long as it is open etc.
The problem that I am having is that I cannot have WiFi auto switch to an open network, or my home network etc. I have to manually go in to WiFi settings and disable Wifi and then re-enable WiFi then select the network manually. All passwords are remembered for networks, I just do not have auto-switching capability. Before upgrading to EC02 via a guide here in XDA, my WiFi would auto-select an open network that was available and pass worded, when I would leave work my SGT would automatically switch to my home network WiFi. I have tried FXR WiFi fix and rescue and other apps to fix this but still have to choose manually to disable and re-enable WiFi or manually select a network. Also, even when a network that I was in range and connected to is still being held onto even when I am no longer in range of the network. WiFi won't automatically let go of the previously connected network.
Again, I have to disable WiFi and manually select a network to switch WiFi connectivity. Any help or suggestions would be welcome.

Ok, this was working fine on the original AT&T ROM, but since I flashed to dutty's ROM, I cant get it to work. How do I force the phone to use wifi for net access when wifi is turned on, as opposed to medianet? Currently, I have to keep manually switching from medianet to "my work connection" in connection settings.
You can use Kaiser Tweak to set it to disconnect the GPRS connection after a set amount of minutes of inactivity. Then, when you enable WiFi, it should connect ONLY to WiFi.
I think the OP needs to sort out his "work" and his "internet" instead of just trying to turn off radio data.
I have medianet set to internet and my wifi set to work...not really clear what "work" is....just want to automatically use wifi when wifi is connected, and cant find the option to do that.
Anybody???
I did set both connections to "work".
Additionally I added my tmobile gprs connection to the work profile.
All seems to work great.
I can acces my network shares over wifi and connect to the internet. When no wifi is available it connects via gprs.
I keep getting confused on this same issue. i installed the same rom we are talking about. it shows up for me when setting up email accounts. with my wifi turned on, it still tries to go out the 3g connection. I want it to use wifi if that is what is turned on and i think that was working on the death star rom. For the drop down that says "The Internet" I basically want that to point to wifi if on then fall back to 3g. How do we do that?
It should not be named "work".
So whats the solution here?
Under Connections....Select which networks are automatically used:
Programs that connect to the internet should connect using ???
I can either choose Medianet or my work network, I'd like for it to use wifi when available, how is this done?
Programs that connect to a private network should connect using ???
I have this set to my work network.
Easy Solution to 'Auto Wifi"
Buy an Iphone, works seemlessly, and you get a browser too which works, something these HTC phones havn't had in 3 years.
The easiest way to force wifi (since gprs can be acting as a ***** ), is to keep wlan enabled and to install the NOGPRS.cab (aka the modaco nodata plugin) which allows you to disable (but keep) the gprs settings and which you can toggle on (and back off) when needed.
Great little app, saves much annoyance!
Is there an easy way to toggle wi-fi on/off, that can be assigned to an icon or button? At the moment I have to open Comm Manager each time and do it from there.

I bought a HTC tilt but I cant figure out the wifi settings. Its from the states, and its branded AT&T. THe phone itself is unlocked and ive been using it on the fido network for the past week. Everything works fine but i cant figure out how to get the wifi to work. It wont connect to the internet or my wireless network.
bumpppppppppppp
step1: turn wifi on via comm manager
step2: hit settings, wireless lan
step3: choose ur network from the list
step4: follow the settings and fill out the WEP key given by your network
step5: connect!
Same problem for me.
I have done eaxctly as described above but despite showing as connected the phone will not access the internet through wifi.
Same sort of thing here, using both standard t-mobile rom and newest HTC rom, my wireless connects, i get an ip from my router, but i am unaible to browse the web
in settings/wi-fi/network adapters/connects to:the internet
settings/connections/advanced/select networks/both options:my isp
also tried setting both options to "work"
any clues anyone?
click start, settings, connections, wlan, and change the power mode from battery to performance
I have been connected to my wifi with original rom from Bell. Ever since I've flashed I can't connect to my wifi with WEP. I put in network key but what is the key index, it sees my network with good signal but wont connect. Do I check IEEEE 802.1 network access control. Smart card or certificate. The original rom was automatic once I put password in, now won't connect. Help!
Guys i have two questions for those who tried the new NoDo update:
What about the hidden Wi-Fi networks, is there any option available now?
WP7 had some bugs regarding connecting to secure Wi-Fi networks, is it solved now?
Thanks,
NoDo still won't see hidden networks, still don't have fix IP...
I have the same problem with Wifi! I can connect it succesfully in my house but when i go to the cafe/bar or something similar i can't get it to work! My ip adress is also weird...
* Wi-Fi improvements. We now display your phone’s Media Access Control (MAC) address in Settings. (You might need this info if you try to connect to a Wi-Fi network that uses MAC address filtering. To learn more, see Connect to a Wi-Fi network.) We’ve also removed the limit on the number of Wi-Fi profiles that you can store and reduced the time it takes to start your phone if you’ve stored lots of Wi-Fi profiles.
yeah i too cannot connect to any hidden wifi networks, really annoying as they use hidden networks on all cruise ships so cant use it!
I'm using the latest Arco CM9 ROM but I'm totally unable to connect to my 802.11n router. The phone actually identifies & saves the network but it is unable to gain access to internet. Using the 'connect to network' achieves nothing but the phone reports that it the network is 'Saved, secured with WPA2'. Disabling encryption doesn't help either, it still won't connect even if the network is set to open.
Other devices are able to connect though.
I have the same problem on my DHD. Connection is clear and the phone always finds my network but won't connect via 802.11n. 802.11g works fine. I've researched many themes in this forum, but 'no answer' always. I've just tried a module for enabling n-mode in HTC-kernels, but it didn't work. At the moment I'm using TrickDroid 3.0. Anyone has solved this problem?
Change your kernel dude
