WIFI Connected, but Can't Browse Internet

[Guest brilliant-green]

Hi All, need help.

Now i'm using DXHI3, previously i used DXHI1.

The problem is :

I have Wifi router at my home, and i can connect using my omnia.

But i can't browse using opera/IE. I already check some settings like :

Browser connection, etc. Seems no problem.

Do you know any other setting i must set ? 1st time i used omnia, is hk version DZHH1, and that time, i try and able to connect/browse to internet using wifi.

Please advise... i already try using 2 different wifi, my home, and public wifi, both can't browse internet, but wifi is already connected.

Many many thanksss ;)

what did you do so far, did you enter WEP or WPA key used on the router?

okay : what i do, is :

1. search for network

2. found my home wifi

3. input WEP key.

4. wifi status show "CONNECTED" to my current wifi.

and then try to browse, always show error, the error is like i'm not connected to internet connection.

did i miss some setting ? or did my installation corrupted ? because i previously using DXHI1, and try to re-flash to DXHI3...

I have the same here, but if i connect to a different WiFi unit near me (unlocked) it connects to the Internet.

My old M7-- (HTC Trinity) had no problems so not sure what is happening here...

Opera>Settings>Connections>Automatically detect settings checked?

After hard resetting yesterday I too couldn't browse via my wifi until I remembered to check this option.

[Guest regster]

you go in Formulations-connect-WI-FI-Card net

select Wlan and modification ........use IP manual and DNS Public o provider.

you will see that it works

ITALIANO

Vai in impostazioni-Connessioni-WI-FI- Scheda di rete, selezioni la scheda di rete WLAN e seti IP manuale e DNS publici o del provider

Esempio

IP andress 192.168.1.12

Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0

Gataway 192.168.1.1 (your router andress)

DNS My provider :

193.70.192.100

195.210.91.100

Sorry my english traslate

[Guest brilliant-green]

Opera>Settings>Connections>Automatically detect settings checked?

Yes, i already setup this thing... still can not.. T__T

[Guest brilliant-green]

also trying to manually set the IP, also can't work... T__T...... what should i do ?

[Guest brilliant-green]

Here is my setting :

I search my network, and found my wifi, then I go to wifi detail :

"Configure Wireless Network"

===================

Network Name : MywifiNetworkName

Connects To : can't choose anything, empty comboBox.

This is a hidden network ( uncheck )

This is a device-to-device (ad-hoc) connection (disable, and uncheck)

NEXT----

Authentication : Open

Data encryption : WEP

The key is automatically provided - Unchecked

Network key : xxxxxxxxxxx

Key Index : 1

NEXT -----

Use IEEE 902.1x network access control - Unchecked

EAP Type : - disabled

FINISH ------

Do i need to set the network adapter ?

My Network card connects to : blank combobox

- SyChip Jaguar WLAN GSPI Card

- NE2000 compatible Etherned Driver

- AsyncMac NDISWAN Miniport

I believe if you searched in google for 'wifi companion socket ipmart' you might find what you are looking for

Here is one site with more details on the application and a link to the creator.

It's hard to find a reseller with google as most links are questionable sources.

hi, is there any other way beside wifi companion ?

i just flash back to official DXHH1, and the problem still not fixed, still can't browse... although it's connected to wifi..

Some stupid questions to consider (as normally when I can't get something to work it's an obvious problem I've not noticed):

Are you sure it's connected to wi-fi (i.e. can you download e-mail)?

My Omnia came with Opera and IE. Do both have no browsing facility?

Settings>Connections>Browser Connections. Does changing this setting affect things?

When you say it's not browsing, have you tried browsing a number of sites. My Omnia came with homepages set to a walled garden from the service provider that couldn't be accessed by WiFi connections.

Another stupid question:

Does it say that it's connected. Because i had a problem with my connection because it remained on connecting and didn't connect.

[Guest Pyranwolf]

Just as a quick thing, I take it all the people having problems have this tweaked?

Start -> Settings -> Connections -> WiFi -> Network Adapters -> My network card connects to "The Internet" rather than "Work"

*I'm not sure 'bout this, but on my setting, I can't choose the setting, because the option is blank, it's just a blank option, so can't choose anything from "My Network card connects to" , is it the problem ? i didn't change anything, as i just re-flash with old DXHH1. so all i did is just setting some basic setup for WIFI.

*And I also do the other check, to browse to some site, including cnn.com, msn.com, google.com, yahoo.com, all can't browse.

*The status of wifi is already connected. not just connecting... but already connected.

*Browser connection is also "Automatically detect connection"

thanks for the suggestions... T__T..... don't know what to do.......

Hm.. i found some strange thing :

I installed WIFI COmpanion, i used the tools :

1. WIFI Ping : to www.yahoo.com, and it can succesfully ping the www.yahoo.com, without timeout, 100% succed

2. WIFI Trace : to www.yahoo.com, and also no timeout, succesfully tracing.

But when i go to opera, and write www.yahoo.com it showed :

============

ERROR!

Network Problem

You tried to access the address http://www.yahoo.com, which is currently unavailable. Please make sure that the web address (URL) is correctly spelled and punctuaed, then try reloading the page.

*make sure your internet connection is active and checked whether other applicaitons that rely on the same connection are working.

============

did i miss something ?

opera setting is already "automatically detect settings"

flash to hi2 and you will not have problems

[Guest Kuteguy]

Wish I could help more - from a network perspective it looks fine! i.e. you are able to ping websites

like I said .. I installed wifi companion and then rebooted my phone and it just started working - so I left it at that

fyi> I am on HH1 (the default ROM/RADIO that I got from Vodafone when I got the phone in September)

[Guest brilliant-green]

Hi kuteguy, thx for the help, right now i'm already reflash for HH1.... still can't...

Let me try to reflash to HI2... hope it's fixed.... T__T

many thanks

[Guest yingks]

Hi all, I'm having the exact same problem, it's really frustrating! I'm able to connect to msn / gmail, but am unable to send email (can receive though) and can't browse too. I'm on a secure network (university network) but by right it should work fine (I've entered my passwords). Settings have been set per the above responses but still no luck. Please help :lol:

Am also on HH1 and cannot connect with wifi to my wifi router. Does flashing to HI2 fix your problem?
