Guest c0v0c Posted July 13, 2005 Report Posted July 13, 2005 Guys on an older post a replacement m2000 of mines WIFI didnt work at all and tried dianosing it with few of u 2 know avail, nevermind anyway new replacement again as screen broke, WIFI detects networks now! Question 2nd but please bear in mind the first point:- 1:- I have used WIFI on my phone for browsing net, chat software, VNC etc for all bar the last faulty m2000 successfully, the PC nor netgear router has changed. All including Windows XP and Netgear firewalls have been completely switched off to try to sort problem. All access control, broadcasting of SSID, any type of encryption on the side of the router is okay, please understand my mate can connect on his M2000 to the respective PC Netgear WIFI no probs just as i used to also. POINT being please dont go on about anything other than question 2 coming up as it aint nout to do with PC, Router, Firewall, Broadcast Channel etc etc and b4 anyone asks no the WIFI port although only one allowed to connect on the router is not in use during my tests, I.E. My PC is attached and nothing else to router, STATUS shows this! QUESTION 2: What are the settings for WIFI on your phones guys? The ones that work, the ones where u having played with it? In Wireless LAN manager, Tools-Network Cards? All subsections? In Wireless LAN manager, Settings? Wheres ur slider between Perf/Batt? In Wireless LAN manager, LEAP? I seem to remember my SSID shown when it used to work, but no more? My Phone detects instantly my routers SSID and asks whether it connects to internet or work, i used to say internet and all fine but now whatever i choose it now it never gets past "Wireless LAN manager" Status Connecting to Network. When in Wireless LAN manager i goto Tool-Network Cards i see my Wireless network name SSID but when i tap/hold and select connect nout seems to happen! What are ur setting withing this section for ur connection? BASIC FACT:- When my last phones WIFI didnt detect shite many ppl agreed and diagnosed the the WIFI reciever on the phone as being totally broken but in trying to diagnose this fault we all had a play with the setting that im asking u guys for and cos i use Active Sync to backup my device any tinkering here has been reflected onto this phone too! So we have changed something but what??? Please help i know this is long winded but sorry guys
Guest fraser Posted July 18, 2005 Report Posted July 18, 2005 Well, it worked for me but I'd recommend everyone read the disclaimer they put at the top of the post. They aren't accepting any liability if it breaks your device... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> How about: a) on my phone, LEAP keeps turning itself on. If you don't know what LEAP is, then switch it off as you are not using it. :) my signal strength thing makes no real observable difference. Turn it to max while debugging tho c) the oldie encryption? you never mentioned if you have it on. Perhaps a typo in the key, or mixup between HEX/ASCII keys? d) if you are getting to "connecting to network", that sounds like it's trying to get a DHCP IP address. So, the WiFi is up and talking, but no data is being passed correctly. As above, my guess is key/authentication problems. Try vxIPconfig, and see if it's getting an IP address (I doubt it)
