XDA11i Wifi Problems

[Guest Kals24-7]

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 know there is a problem with my router assigning the XDA11i an IP address. When I have no encryption the assigned IP is similar to my other devices e.g 192.168.XX.XX.

However when encryption is turned on its something like 168.256XX.XX.

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 dont think older devices support WPA unfortunately. You're best bet if you *really* want to use wifi is to change the security to WEP only and use MAC address filtering to only allow your computers/pda access.

Got it working with WEP as you suggested.

Thanks
