XDA11i Wifi problem

Hi,
I have dug out an old XDA11i for wifi use at home. The problem is that I can connect to my SpeedTouch wireless router when I turn off all encryption, however as soon as I turn it back on (WPA-PSK) I am unable to connect.
I have done some research on here and other forums and it seems like it was quite a common issue. I have tried all suggestions:
Hard reset, turn off all encryption, connect XDA then add encryption one step at a time then configure the wifi profile on the XDA etc..but I still cant connect.
I dont want to leave my Wifi network unprotected. I have a xbox 360, xbox, laptop, pc and HTC wizard all running on Wifi without any problems.
Can anyone please help me get the XDAii working.
Thanks

I guess no one can help?

managed to get it working myself after some trila and error...
1.Turn off all encryption
2. restart router
3.clear ppc wifi profiles
4. connect without encryption
5.add wep 128-bit encryption (not the best but better than uncrypted)
6. add wep key to ppc.
All connected fine..

my solution is try to MAC address filter the device that you connect to Wireless router.
so that you don't need any protection at all.
I'm using that way so I just need to register my PDA MAC address to the Wireless router and it can connect so well now

I had the same problem with my Fritz!Box 7170. I solved it with disabeling the function "receive IP adress automatic" and gave a fix IP adress. Now it works fine.

WiFi problems

Hi.
I recently bought my s730. Quite pleased with it, but one thing bothers me.
When i connect to my wlan at home (zyxel_2602hw_d1a WPA-PSK TKIP) i'm able to connect to the router, but I don't seem to be able to get an connection to anywhere outside my own network. I tried using Live Messenger, IE, Opera and Skype, but nothing happens.
When I'm using GPRS or EDGE it all works smoothly.
Any suggestions?

Do you have your connection set to automatic or only through your phone network? I have seen a few problems with that.
Also, double check that you are entering wep or any other security protocol correctly, took my 6 tries before it would work, it looked like it was connected to the network but it really wasnt (just personal experience with this phone.)

I do have the connection settings in both IE and Opera set to automatic. I's there somewhere else I have to change settings?
I'm quite sure i typed the password correctly. I also checked the client list on the router and the phone showed up correctly.

Gah, cant remember where I saw it but there was a setting in the phone itself for what to connect to.
Another thing to try under the wifi connection open your saved connection and go into it and see if you have it set to connect to the internet or just to the private network under "network type" in the Wi-Fi sub menu of Wlan settings. Its late and I cant think right, i'll see about checking more into it later...

I solved this problem - change your WLAN security on your WLAN router only on exactly MAC adressee (no any WEP) and your Wings is allowed to connect and all will be OK, work OK - Skype, IE, Opera. Problem was only to find MAC adressee my Wings

Wing + WRT54GL
Hi!
I have an S730 and a Linksys WRT54GL router. I've tried to use wlan with my phone, but it doesn't working. I want to use WPA2 with AES without Radius. Is the WPA shared key (router) same to network key(phone)? without security and encryption, it's working well.. I cannot see any syslog. That could be so easy..

I tried removing security for my phone MAC address, but there dosn't seem to be any options on my router allowing this. So I'm still stuck;-/

Did you check network settings? I mean e.g. if you don't use DHCP server and you didn't fill in right settings phone may connect to network but may not get outside. I know it can look like "lame" question, but sometimes even a master can do a newbie mistake..

usually it is in section WLAN Advanced setup - WEP Encryption - disable and in WLAN MAC Filters - active + allow asotiation with table of adress your Wings - aply . I have Zyxel Prestige 660HW.

I'm sure that DHCP is active, and that I get an IP.
I tried disabling security on my router, but same problem. Connects to my router, gets an IP but still nothing works

Your DNS are also provided automatically? Or could you ping (through some app) to any IP address of any server on the internet? If you succee, then we can look for a mistake with DNS.

Problem solved!!!
Okay. Found the cause for all my sufferings...
Power management. under WLAN-settings i changed power setting from power save mode to best performance...
thanks for all the help. hope next time I have a better question

wifi problem
hello everybody,i have tried several times to connect to my router at home but no chance at the end i got this warning saying:
cannot log on to the wireless network this network requires a personel certificate to positively identify you.

[Q] Wi-fi problems SGS

I just bought my Samsung galaxy S i9000 and the only problem i have is with the WI-fi,it works fine until i reset the router(just power on and off), then it starts doing obtaining "IP adress from..." and it wont connect ever again .The only option in this case is to reset the phone to factory setting and this is frustrating.
I noticed that if i turn off the wi-fi on the phone first and after that reset the router and then turn on again the wi-fi on the phone works.The problem is sometimes i forget turning it off from the phone or if a power cut happens it will do the same thing until reseted to the factory settings again and of course i lose all the applications.
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks in advance.

Try to change the wi-fi name to something smaller.Also if you use password for the wi-fi try to deactivate it to see if it is the same problem.I feel that it has something to do with the decreption used in the router...maybe i m wrong..

I will try the password removal to see if the problem persists.

Nop, it doesn't work either way, i called a neighbor to come by with his nokia N8 and it seems to work fine for him.

By the way my IP changes every time if i power on and off the router i think the problem might come from there since it says "obtaining Ip adress from...", but then again for nokia N8 works just fine, and i even renamed and reseted the router to different settings and still doesn't work so my guess is that the phone has a problem.

Your router changes IP every time you restart it? Can you explain a little...are you being re-issued a dynamic IP from your ISP thats refreshes when you reset your router? Otherwise I would think even after resetting your router it would default to 192.168.1.0 or .0.0.
Either way it sounds like a DHCP problem...where the router is not properly issuing an IP address to the phone, or your phone has cached old settings and isn't being able to pick up an IP after your router changes IP.

Yea Kops the Ip is dynamic and refreshes every time i reset the router

This is probably the case, any way i can clear the cache?

I've had similar-ish problems when running a custom rom so last resort would be re flashing

I would look into seeing if your router is capable of NAT (as most routers are). This would enable a private network in the 192.168.x.x range, and might solve the issue of it not picking up the new IP if the issue is with caching the old one. As far as clearing any cache related to wifi, I'm not exactly sure where that would be found. You could try going into your Settings > Wireless & Network > Wifi settings and forgetting the network. Doing this and letting it re-discover it may help.
May I ask why you are resetting your router? I see no need for it to happen very often. Also, just let me clarify....if you successfully join the wifi, and leave the wifi range...when you return, will it connect again? Does the non-connection only happen after resetting the router?

Have you tried to use static IP for your phone instead?

This might be worth a shot if you could get NAT working, to eliminate the "obtaining IP address" from the DHCP... but if the IP is constantly refreshing and changing, I'm not sure it would do any good.

Wifi - Obtaining IP address

I have been having this strange wifi problem lately.. I am not able to connect to my home wifi network.
It says obtaining IP address but never connects.. This problem only occurred recently.. I was able use my home wifi before.
After googling around, i tried the following.
1. I went to advanced setting and used static IP. This time it got connected. But i was not able to connect to internet.
2. Did a factory reset.. Then flashed stock using ODIN. Still no luck.
3. I changed the encryption to WPA-PSK... Didnt work.
Can somebody help with this issue please?

Hmm..did u flash any kernel?

I had this problem when I tried to update busybox. But since you have re-flashed stock.
Are you sure its a problem on your phone and not with the router? Try connecting to a different router.

Remove the WiFi connection from your phone, click on forget.
On your router,from the configuration page, change the WiFi security to open then try connecting using phone.
If it works then remove connection from phone again (click forget), and configure your router to WPA or any other such algorithm. Then connect again.

My brother has this problem, have you tried other wifi networks? It may be able to connect to other routers. What does it say after "obtaining ip address", does it connect or do you get disconnected?

Can’t connect to wifi

My phone cannot connect to my home wifi although it can connect to my personal hotspot from my other phone. Any solution?

Hi,
So you can connect to some Wi-Fi, but not your home's one ?
If so, check if your Wi-Fi router has a feature that allow only specified MAC addresses to connect.
If so, either disable that feature or add your device to the authorized ones.
Regards.

I can’t find the mac address configuration here. Is there any other solution?

Hi,
You will find it in Settings=> About Phone.
Regards

You have to disable your router WPA2-PSK SETTINGS , follow steps...
Connect any pc to that wifi> enter 192.168.0.1 on your browser or ip address for your router setting admin page> enter username and password ( if dont remember ask isp)> go to wireless setting once logged in>primary network> disable WPA2-PSK> APPLY>LOG OUT.
This should do the trick..

This will disable wifi encryption so that hackers can easily spy on that router.
