WIFI connection

Does anybody know why mi tilt doesn't connect to any wifi connection ?

What happens after you try to connect?

it connects to the wifi network, but non of the programs connect to the internet, for example IE says that "the page cannot be found, check the name an try again" and that's with any page.

Wifi no-connect with USB activesync turned on
With activesync via USB running, I see my WiFi is connected but cannot connect to IE pages. I think activesync creates its own network connection to the HTC. When I dosconnect the USB, everything is OK again...

it dosen't work without the activesync either

Do you get this error when connecting to ANY WiFi point, or just the one in your house/work/whatever?

I get the error when I try to connect to whatever with the wifi connection

Yeah I am having the same problem.

did you try setting your wifi power mode to best performance?

It's set to the best performance

and still noting

i have the same problem, but i discovered that works sometimes.... i dont know if its a Wireless N interference or something like that... i have a Wireless N at home, and i cant connect to any hotspot detected at home (more than 5), but when i go to a coffee store, there i connect smoothly.... its strange.... at home doesn't ask for a password when the router is set to WPA2 or WPA....

does anyone know why this happens ?

change radios
Install another radio. My stock tilt would not connect to any wifi. I tried another rom and then it worked without any issues whatsoever. Make sure you use full power setting.

Is your Wireless N running a mix of B/G/N? Or is it running N mode only?
If its the latter, the Kaiser can only connect to B/G mode.

Wi-Fi connects but NO data transfer

Hi,
I have just got the Diamond and I have two main problem.
1) Although I have connected the Diamond to my Home wireless network, there is no data transfer. Opera can not open pages, Youtube can not start even I can not update weather?
2) When I connect the Diamond to the Laptop / PC, all PC's and Laptops connected to my home network (wireless) drop from the connection and never connect again?
Thank you for your kind help...

I have same problem with my Diamond.

1) go to: startmenu->settings->connections->Wi-Fi->networkcard/adapter->and make sure that it says "my networkcard/adapter connects to internet"Also at the same tab open IEEE 802.11b/g Compitable Wi-Fi Adapter and try to a static ip matching the one your pc uses. (not sure about it since i can't recreate the problem atm..)
2) Try the thing I suggested in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=417664 (plz use search next time)

Thanks for your reply, but both of solutions do not work for me...
Any other suggestion?
Thanks for your help..

Try turning on wifi, then go in LAN WIRELESS and change in "improved performance"

All of this do not work for me too...

Go to Wireless LAN settings and there to power mode and set yo best battery.... that worked for me.

in "settings => connections => WiFi" is "Connected". In "Wireless Lan" there is Connected too... In log on my router there is MAC adress of Diamond as associated and authorized. All seems OK. But on Diamond do not work any internet connection (Weather, web, etc...). With Active Sync works fine. Laptop with the same settings works fine. But Diamond with WiFi... no way :-(

Any other suggestions?

Same problem after i made ROM update from 1.7... to 1.93. before works fine. no other software is istalled.

Been having an issue with connecting to my wireless network also for the last week. My phone is from orange in the UK. My wireless router is an Dlink 614+ on Virgin cable broadband.
The Diamond would connect intermittantly but then say 'not avaiable' after a period of time, or when trying to reconnect after diasbling/enabling wi-fi in the comms manager. Also, after restarting my router the device would connect for a while but not seem to 'hold' it's connection.
When the device was 'connected' I could not get opera/youtube to load a page, even though I could see the diamond in my router's log showing it connected with a leased ip address. What made it so annoying was that every other wireless mobile device/laptop I have owned has connected without any problem at all, leading me to beleive there was a problem with the phone. Again, this was rather frustrating as the phone was detecting avaliable networks but just not 'holding' the connection nor 'using' the connection in opera/explorer etc.
After searching on xda-developers and other forums for a possible known issue, I tried all the various suggestions including;
i/ increasing to best performance under power mode in Wireless LAN settings
ii/ Hard reset of router (even though other wireless devices were connected fine)
iii/ trying static rather than dynamic ip for my diamond in router settings
iv/ disabling any security/encryption on my router
v/ entering DNS settings in manually into my diamond
vi/ changing 'connect to' under wi-fi neteorks to 'Work' rather than 'the internet'
vii/ tried various roms
and other suggestions I had read about - all which didn't make a difference!
I was about to send the diamond back to Orange (here in the UK) but decided to give it one last go and change my router. I bought a Netgear WGT624 for 25 quid from PC today world and my diamond connected
straight away without an issue, and opera/youtube/messager all connected straight away to the internet. I have not lost connection once. So thats how I resolved it - obviously my device did not like 802.11b (on the original dlink router) even though all previous smartphones have connected fine and the diamond's wireless adapter is labelled b/g.
Hope that stops anyone wasting a week like I did, I would try it out on another router before making any decisions because the chip in the diamond seems a lot more picky to what it connects to than anything I've used in the past!
cheers

Linksys WAG54 is OK, Freebox is not perfect
It really seems to depend on the WiFi router.
I've had probems with my French Freebox (my ISP's ADSL+wifi router) using WPA2 AES. It would work fine, for half an hour maybe, then it would stop. It says it's connected but there is no data transfer. You can switch WLAN off and on, soft reset the phone... nothing will do. Then it will work again later on.
I downgraded encryption to TKIP and i experienced the same problem.
But then I've tried my old Linksys WAG54G router, using the exact same encryption protocol and key and it works perfectly (for hours)!
I've also tested free access (Paris public Wifi, Mc Donald's...) and they work fine.
As my ISP wifi box does not let me have a look at all the settings (beacon time, etc.) it is very difficult to tell what makes it not-so-compatible with my Diamond... But there must be something.

How to conect Viva to internet via laptop

Hi
I have a HTC Touch Viva and I want to get internet from my laptop via WiFi (ad-hoc) I do make connection it has internet accessibility I can connect to my laptop from my Viva and when I ping it from my laptop it responds but I don't have internet on my Viva, one of my friends told me I have to set DNS server for Viva which there is no option for doing that, is there any step by step guide to help me I found something but it didn't work for me.
I'll be so glad if you can help me. (by the way, I use Evolution ultimate BETA as my current ROM if you need to know)
Best Regards

Why don't you connect your device to the laptop via Activesync (via Bluetooth or USB)? It will automatically allow you to share your internet connection with the device, and you don't have to set up anything.
Anyway, try going to Start>Setup>Connections>Wifi>Network Adapters and choose "The Internet" from the drop-down list. Reconnect to the laptop and try accessing the internet.
If that doesn't work, choose the "IEEE 802.11b/g Compatible Wi-Fi Adapter" and tap on "Edit", it will take you to an interface where you can set a static-ip and the DNS servers manually.
Hope it works for you.

To tell you the truth it doesn't matter for me how to do it I just want to get my ADSL internet on my device via laptop I did as you said

but it doesn't work :-s
How can I get internet via USB Activesync?
Thanks for reply

and I couldn't find a place to add DNS server in edit part of "IEEE 802.11b/g Compatible Wi-Fi Adapter"

Well, it's there on my device:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
However if things don't work out you can always try the Activesync method:
Assuming you're using Windows 7:
- Click on Start and type "windows mobile device center", and click on the program that appears in the list of programs.
- Now connect your device via USB.
- Your computer will recognize your device and start installing drivers for it (this only happens the first time you connect your device). Wait till the drivers are installed.
- The Windows Mobile Device Center will show up on the screen and ask you to set up your device for synchronization.
- Set up your device the way you want it. You could also choose to "Connect to device without configuration".
- Now try to use a browser in your device, it should work.
Note: the steps above are only necessary for first-time connection. After that, you could just plug your device via USB or Bluetooth and it will connect automatically so you can use the internet with no additional setup.
If all fails, please provide some more details about your network setup. And make sure that Internet Sharing (ICS) is set up properly on your laptop.
Good luck.

Thanks for helping I did but again I couldn't get internet on my device ether ways (Activesync, wireless) what kind of information do you need?

Tell us about your problem:
- Give us a step by step description of your problem.
- How do you connect to the internet at home? ADSL or 3G? What's your router brand and model?
- Why didn't Activesync work for you? What version of Windows do you use?
- Did you setup Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) in your laptop?
- Does your ISP require a proxy to connect to the internet?
Sharing your internet connection should be fairly easy. I think the problem is a software conflict, or a misconfigured settings on the device or laptop.

Thanks for your answers
-I just make a conection on my laptop and I conect with my Touch viva I ping it through my laptop and it respond but there is no internet in touch viva
-I connect through ADSL modem, TP-LINK TD-8811 and I use Lan cabel
- I use Evolution ultimate beta, and ActiveSync works well on phone I can do anything through ActiveSync it just don't have internet
-about ICS I enabeled it by right clicking on it and allowing it to share internet with other connection.
-No my proxy don't use proxy setting

Ok, try this method:
- Reset your WiFi adapter settings in Viva (re-enable DHCP, and empty the DNS address fields).
- Download this program and try connecting through it:
http://www.connectify.me/
It will turn your laptop into a WiFi access point so you can see it in Viva and connect to it as a normal WiFi router.
Remember to revert the WiFi settings to default!
Try it and tell us what happens.
Good luck.

[Q] Teach me how to Dou...Tether!

I'm currently running Firefly 2.7, but I've had a similar issue across a couple roms and several modems. The only successful tethering I've EVER done has been via Firefly here and whatever stock kernel/modem it comes with.
Basically, I'm looking for anyone to explain to me what process they use to tether...
I've never successfully USB tethered. I've hotspotted twice, once it worked GREAT (I was plugged into usb at the time for power), it was fast and flawless. I tried over and over again one day and finally got it to connect, but it repeatedly wanted to time out and error, although it never lost its wifi connection. That time I was NOT plugged in.
These are both using the baked-in tether options in Froyo---USB tether and hotspot, NOT using an external app. I've also used PDANet successfully, but I'd prefer to be able to bounce between systems (I actually use about 5 different laptops regularly) and share the connection on the road.
All my systems are using Win 7, selecting home or work as network type. Any suggestions welcome.
Quick edit: I've noticed that sometimes with this rom my wifi will stop working all together---I don't leave it on normally, but sometimes it won't turn on.

i dont have any wifi issues with Firefly
I have never done USB tether before now. It worked on first try. took me less than a minute to figure out and have working.
however to enable USB tethering.
plug USB into PC
Press Menu button
Press Settings
Press Wireless and Network
Press Tethering
Press CHECK enable.
PC will do the rest by itself. (win 7 64 / other drivers pre-installed)

Yea, that's pretty much exactly what I did. You're successfully hotspotting and usb tethering w/ firefly base rom? Hmm. Anyone else?

tethering AND hot-spotting?...
no i tethered only. ( PC got internet from PHONE via USB )
hot spotting is wifi.. ( aslo know as Mobile AP )
you want to do both? or...?
EDIT: you can also share internet through Bluetooth if your pc has it. mine does.
EDIT EDIT: to get my Mobile AP fully connected (no limited connectivity), i had to have windows "Troubleshoot the connection" . And setup your Mobile AP settings on Phone to use WPA2 with password. your phone # is a good choice for PW.

I just want to do one OR the other successfully each time. Bluetooth isn't a choice currently, really the Mobile AP is the best overall solution. I had just left it open to see if I could connect, but if I can make it work every time I'll certainly secure.

Bionic won't connect to WiFi at home...

I don't know if the Bionic has some sort of special way it deals with WiFi but it can't seem to connect to the WiFi at home? Does it need some sort of special setup? My Optimus One is able to connect just fine. And the Bionic was able to download a few files while connected to the school WiFi.
Does it have problems with certain routers? It just keeps saying "Obtaining IP address" and it won't get connected. We are using an Airport at home and I'm not sure what kind of router the school has. Is there some sort of setting that is different in the WiFi advanced settings from other phones?

What are your wifi settings on? WPA/WPA2? your have to make sure you try to connect with the same settings that your router uses. There are various setups so you may want to check that out. Mine is on WPA/WPA2 but there are others.
Also, you may want to try unplugging your router and plugging it back in.

You may also want to check out how many current connections you have to your network. If your wifi isn't password protected, your neighborhood may be using your network and your router may be at capacity for active connections.

I'd try the advise above first and if that doesn't work then try changing your SSID to something unique and seeing if it will connect then. One other note may be to set your router to wireless G only, I've seen issues with mine trying to connect to certain wireless N routers.

In Wifi Settings, press Menu and go to Advanced Settings. Ensure that you have Enable AutoIP turned on. For some reason I dont usually see it turned on by default.

Alright I fixed it ^_^ I switched from WEP to WPA/WPA2 and enabled AutoIP just in case. AutoIp did not fix it though. Had to switch to WPA/WPA2.
Thank you everyone

Glad you got it fixed. I am adding this story in case anyone else might suffer from this.
My friend and his wife have Droid Bionics that could connect to wifi around town (hospital, McDonald’s, Starbucks, etc) but not to his wifi at home. They both had the 5.9.905 software on their Bionics. At his home he has a Netgear WPN824 v3 router (capable of B and G but not N) with fully updated firmware. The router was already set to channel 6 instead of auto and no mac filtering was turned on. When he would try to connect to the wifi at his house his Bionic would connect to the router but blocked apps from passing data back and forth and they would finally time out. The bionic would show a strong wifi signal and the wifi icon would be blue.
His encryption type had been ‘WPA-PSK [TKIP]’ and according to some forums we read that should have worked. We tried upgrading his phone to ICS leak .232 and we were very surprised that this did not fix the wifi problem.
It turned out that by turning off all encryption on his router his phone was finally able to pass data. I changed the encryption to ‘WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES]’ and that seemed to do the trick for both their phones. I suspect that if you have a similar problem you could try changing to no encryption and if that works try one of the other encryption types and maybe one of them will work for you. I hope this helps someone get their Bionic and wifi working and saves you some time.
