I have several SP5 phones, and i've used them without much trouble for the last coupe of years. We used a Linksys router to connect via wifi and it worked well, but know we bought a Cisco 851w router and the SP5 don't connect to it. They receive the SSID, but if we try to connect to the router, it just doesn't happen.
The SP5 are flashed with the last official i-mate WM5 ROM.
Does anyone has any idea what the problem maybe? I've read that the CCX Cisco extension has caused some problems with others HTC devices, but i don't knonw if this router uses CCX and if it does how to disable it.
Any help is welcomed.
i've the same issue with conceptronic router... i've tried with wep, open, b/g, 54/11, ALLLL!!!! arg :S
why... whyyyy.... whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!
only can connect with adhoc with PC.
Try set PowerMode. Find key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\tiacxwln1\Parms\HTCPowerMode
Set the value to 0 (default should be 4)
That registry value is already set in 4, thanks anyway. I am pretty sure the problem is with the router, the infamous CCX, but i have no clue how to solve this, and in cisco forums i haven't found any answers.
Sorry, I meant to set to 0. (Have updated my first post)
Try it. This trick works for me on my gigafast router.

I tried with 0, but also no luck.
Not sure if this will help, but how I got my tornado working with my dlink router was to go into the wireless setup of the router and change the WPA mode to 'WPA Only' and to change the cipher type to 'TKIP'.
For some reason if the WPA mode is set to auto (WPA or WPA2), the tornado will never connect.
Wooow thank you very very very much... I searched since a lot of month (connexion problems with a Zyxel)... and now, all is OK... (with param at 0 in registry)
Thx

My TouchPro can connect normally to unsecured wifi networks, but with WPA encrypted ones, it can only connect for the first time, after that it can not.
At home I have a wireless router/ADSL modem (Zoom X6) that is connected to my PC by cable, all my phones and laptops connect to internet via wifi. While other phones (1G iPhone) and laptops always connect successfully, the TP only connected once and then cannot or unable connect to the WPA security-enabled wireless network (although it's able to scan and detect the availability of the Wifi network). I tried to reset the router settings, even update router firmware, but no luck, it's still unable connect. I also tried with my office secured wifi network and I had the same problem.
Yesterday, I had to hardreset my TP and tried to connect once again, but problem was repeated, connected only once and after that, unable. Note that my previous PPC (TMobile Ameo WM5) didn't have any problem with the same wifi router and the same wifi settings (as follow).
My TP wifi settings:
Network Name: MyNetwork
Connects To: The Internet
Uncheck "This is a hidden network"
Next step:
Authentification: WPA-PSK
Data Encryption: TKIP
Greyed Out: The key is automatically provided
Network Key:************** (my pass)
Greyed Out: Key Index: 1
Next,
Checked "Use IEEE 802.1x network access control" but greyed (I can't change this)
Anybody know the solution for this issue?
Thanks and very appreciated for any help.
i experienced similar problems with my old p4350 but not yet with the TP...
no solution, sorry. but im quite unhappy that this issue still exists...
Any suggestion, pls.
yeah.. quite sucky.. I though the WiFi 'broke'.. but i was able to connect to a WEP site.. I think its something to do with WPA.
I never had this problem with my Diamond. The firmware on Diamond isso much more stable compared to Touch Pro..
I set everything to WEP and my key is open instead of shared, and now it works fine.
I had issues at my dad's, who has no encryption, and also there, when I set the key to open io shared, I got connection. (even though there is no key
anyway, it looks like that is the bug (at least in my device)
I have exactly same settings and same problem... but I want to use this encrypted connection since in future I will have to connect also in other places where I need it for sure.
Any help here?
I have similar promblem with my Hermes before.
My wireless router is running "Turbo-G" mode, my Hermes can't connect it with Turbo-G mode On.
After I change the wirless mode from Turbo-G to "g/b", my Hermes can connect it without any problem.
I tryed that and does not work...
strange is that is was working in the past and on router I did no changes but on TP I installed just some apps which should not affect this...
Only what could affect is Advanced config which I installed...
So where else can be problem?
How can I troubleshoot this?
Signal kvality is good but still keeps dropping and does not obtain IP from router.
mine works fine...not that that helps you in any way
I found the solution: set router to unsecured and use MAC filter. But that is only a tip, because my TP still can not connect with any other secured wifi.
I had same problem and looks like I found the bug in Advanced Config 3.2
There is in Network -> WPA auth... was enabled and I put Disabled (now I can use WPA auth anyway... before it just could not connect)
And next Wi-Fi delay after boot: 0 (when I changed to other number than I got problem that I could not even see any AP as I could see before and only network card settings was shown)
Try to play with other settings and you will see... I had also errors with device.exe after reboot... but now it all works as it should.
Just post here if it helps you also so we can notify creator of Advanced Config...

You are merely restricting people from connecting to your router.. without encryption, you are sending unsecure packets all over..
Have you tried using AES encryption on your device instead of TKIP? I only mention this because TKIP is the only one I haven't tried. All other methods of connectivity work fine for me with the TP.
I tried the PT using unsecured routers, WEP and WPA and all of them worked fine with stable connectivity.
The routers I have tried (without any problems) so far are:
1. Linksys WRT-54G running Tomato firmware
2. Linksys WRT-54G running DD-WRT firmware
3. D-Link DIR-655 running latest firmware
I tired open, WEP and WPA1+2 on all of the above routers and the TP responded with zero issues...
I am not using a custom ROM.
I hope this helps in some miniscule way.
Good luck.

Not having any issues with my girlfriends WPA secured router. It's on WPA2-PSK and AES encryption. Enter key first time (case sensitive!!), and of you go... Connecting without trouble ever since
hmm..Funny mine still can't connect to my home WPA2, AES or TKIP.. I'm on the Buffalo Tomato firmware..
WIFI not connecting
This solution worked for me!! Excellent. This was a right pain!

I've got the sollution, everybody on this forum probably has advance config installed, the program sets some default value's of it's own, set the WPA authentication under network in the advance config program to disabled and it will work again. Anyways, that worked for me
I've removed WiFi settings and then I edited settings again. It works now
Raphael Wifi problems
I bought this Fuze to replace my trusty Dash since I broke the antenna on my Dash. I'm running NRG Magic, but have tried other NATF and other ROMs as well, I cannot get this phone to connect to my wifi network I'm using WPA2-PSK but have disabled security for testing. My Dash and my laptop connect immediately with no problems. If I cannot get wifi going on this Fuze I'm afraid I'll have to put it on Ebay and try the Iphone, which people seem to love.
The Fuze did connect once, and it was WPA2-PSK at the time, I don't remember what ROM I was using at the time probably an NRG flavor, but Ihave had _no_ luck since.
Should I flash to 'official' ROM? Honestly I'm getting tired of playing with this thing I don't have the time.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Marc
I may have found something
Check your time zone/daylight savings settings on your router. Phone and router time must be in sync.
My VOX has stopped communicating to my router. This appears to have happened since I accidently deleted profile but that could be co-incidence..
It sees my network...
Settings VOX
Net type INTERNET
Auth WPA 2
AES
USE IEEE 802.1x YES
AEP type: Smart Card or certificate
Settings WAG200G nothing really relevent here except to say AES as above.
My phone seems to connect WITHOUT encryption but when I add encryption (with real simple password) this is where the phone can't connect for some reason... My laptop is still connected to the router without any problems there is no MAC filter or anything like that.
Anyone please help!
BTW tried hard reset not helped.
i have the exactly same problem. i tried other kinds of config on my router but nothing worked.without encripton or password it connects...
Not connecting to WIFI
Seems more people have this problem?
WPA2 does seem to be a problem. Personally I also use fixed IP, but never got my phone connected to my home network.
@work I use WEP and DHCP, no problem connecting.
@home I use, as mentioned, WPA2, AES, Fixed IP, router.
If anybody got a simple answer...?
btw, I got this problem after using other roms(for almost a year now). Basic HTC rom (WM 6.0 :-( ) seems to work fine.
Half connected in fact
Hi, I'm also getting a wifi problem after installing the RUU_Vox_HTC_FRA_1.34.406.1_4.1.13.54_03.10.90_Ship ROM (and thus resetting everything in the profile), but I wonder if it's really the same thing.
My phone connects to the wifi, gets an IP (both the phone and the router show the same IP attributed), but PIE and Outlook Pocket can not use the network. It's just like they couldn't see the network. But they don't use Edge either to connect, so they probably somehow try to send data to the network,but they fail.
Oh, and WEP encryption changes nothing. And I can't test with fully removing the encryption, as I use an internet box, not a standard router.
What I don't get is that I was browsing just fine on this ROM and the same config in my router I wish someone with more knowledge would spare a minute to help us out here or at least point us in the right direction
Solved
I upgraded the firmware on my router... :d thx
I'm having a technical problem with my home Wi-Fi router, and my Fuze. I just recently set up a wireless network at home, and have my PC connected to the router through Wi-Fi. Whenever I attempt to connect my Fuze to the router, the Fuze hijacks the connection, and disconnects my PC from the network. I have tried to contact the tech support for the router, but nothing they suggest seems to work. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there something I am missing in the router configuration? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you give static ip on both pc and ppc check if you gave the same ip. If not, check the dhcp range on your router.

First thing I would try is updating the firmware, and doing a factory restore.
If that doesn't work, try changing the router to force 54g connections only. It's possible, but unlikely, that the Draft-N spec used by the router doesn't play nicely with the WLAN chipset in the Touch Pro.

agreed, i would try this first. makes sense that if they both have the same ip that that is the cause of your problem. if you're set to assign dynamic ip's on connecting to the router, then i'd try upgrading the firmware. good thing to check first
Still having problems with this issue. Tried everything suggested so far.
Make sure the IP's are not conflicting and the dhcp range is at least 10 addresses.
It could also be a neighbor screwing around, make sure you encrypt your wifi with wpa or wpa2 or anyone in range can use your wifi.
When I first read your problem I thought it was an IP conflict with both devices like some others have said....but if you've checked everything and tried all possible solutions posted in this thread I think it might be pretty safe to assume that you need a new router. If its new, just bring it back and exchange it for a different one.
I'm using a D-Link DIR-655P and have connection types (B, G, N) on auto, dynamic IP address assignment set, and I have the latest firmware installed and I have no issues whatsoever...I have a quick lock and fast speeds.
I've got a few questions, because to me this sounds like a possible issue with your network adapter on your PC, rather than a DHCP "hijack" issue.
What is the ip on your PC after it gets "hijacked"?
Do you use sleep/hibernate modes on your PC?
Have you turned off Windows Firewall or any other security/virus/malware software on the PC?
This router is new, did this setup work with a previous router?
What security protocol are you using for wireless connections, WEP, WPA, WPA2, or none?
-----------------
Hope you can figure it out, that's gotta be a real PITA.
Got it fixed. Did some more research, and found that the firmware updates do not work with Firefox, so I used IE to do the update, and it works fine. For anyone else that uses or is planning to use this router, check the firmware. The firmware version that mine came with (1.0.4 build 10) does not work with multiple versions of Windows (ie: cannot have a computer with Win XP and another with Win Vista connected at the same time). Thanks for the help.
Ahhh...well there you go. Glad its fixed.
My fuze's wifi worked fine with a Zyxel router and a Belkin router configured as a dd-wrt repeater, for 6 months. Last week, verizon came to install FIOS and upgraded their old non-wireless router with a new one. Since then my Fuze can't see internet through wifi anymore. And it doesn't see the router's home page at 192.168.1.1 either.
However it is able to join the wireless network (WEP, SPA2, etc password portected) and get an ip address through DHCP or static. If it is static IP, then the router can see it as a static IP. My other wireless devices can all connect to the new router, including an iphone and the dd-wrt router configured as a client.
Initially I thought it was some silly settings between the new router and the phone. But after I exhausted things to try, I put the old Zyxel back on, and it still doesn't work. I also checked Fuze with our public library's open wifi, no luck either.
I just did a hard reset, reloaded the at&t rom, still same problem.
I did search the forum, and found a related thread, with no solutions in it--http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441889
Any help is greatly appreciated!
ETA: A number of people mentioned the power setting of wifi needs to be set to max performance. While I have always had my set at max battery, and wifi worked find perfectly until the change described above, now I set it to max performance it is working. And set it to middle or any other place it doesn't work. I think it is some response time setting on the router.
Not sure if you've tried this, but figure I'd mention it anyway in case you forgot. I'm not too sure what this does myself, but isn't there a setting to tell the Fuze to connect through the "Internet" instead of "Media Net" or something like that? Maybe you forgot to change that setting, but it doesn't really make sense why getting a new router would be the cause of loss of wifi, unless the wifi chip went bad at the same time you got the router, which I don't think is likely?
Under wi-fi settings there is a choice between connecting to "The Internet" or "Work". But my phone has always been set to internet.
MediaNet is about the cellular signal's data service. I am using it it for the GPRS and 3G setting.
resolve: power setting did it
A number of people mentioned the power setting of wifi needs to be set to max performance. While I have always had my wifi set at max battery which is the default setting, and wifi worked find perfectly until the change described above, now I set it to max performance it is working. And set it to middle or any other place it doesn't work.
I think it is some response time setting on the router that is affecting it. My old router must be more forgiving.
Thanks
Changing the wifi battery setting from Best to performance worked. Thanks, I was getting frustrated.
Power Settings
Hi any one knows why does the Fuze has to be set to best performance for wifi to work. do we have any solution to come over this issue.

Hey guys/gals, I have a problem with setting up the wifi on the tab 7.0 plus.
It sees my SSID - I enter in the password, it says obtaining IP - but is stays there never actually giving me an IP from my router. I get signal strength, etc. but I cant access the net.
So i decided to try to set a static IP, but that did not work either (but not sure I did this entirely correctly, so ...)
Any solutions? Whats the problem? it can be that hard....

The likely problem is that DHCP isn't running on your network (or isn't working.) DHCP is something that usually will run on your router and assigns IP numbers to devices that connect to it. It's also possible that DHCP is working fine, but you have MAC Address filtering enabled on your router (which basically limits which devices can attach to your network.)
Finally, it might simply be a router incompatibility (though I haven't seen that very often.)
As to how to resolve those things... I can't answer that... I don't have the same router you do (unless you just so happen to have a linksys E4200), so can't walk you through reconfiguring it.
Good luck

Had the same problem at the beginning when I unboxed my Tab for several times. After few resettings my router an Tab it finally started to work and since that moment couple of days without any issue. So don't know where was the problem..:-(
I also had DHCP issues upon unboxing the tablet. When it first powered up and tried to connect to my D-Link router, my Wi-Fi would go offline. All of my other connected devices would also go offline. After pondering this bizarre behavior for a few moments I decided to turn off the tablets wifi. The router and other devices magically came back online and connected.
After repeating this several times just to make sure I wasn't seeing things I assigned a static IP to the tablet. Everything worked fine after that.
What I think was happening there was that the tablet was trying to grab the router's IP address and that was knocking everything offline. This is just a guess though. Maybe someone with more network saavy than me has some thoughts?
thanks i will try these tonite and reply back.
My Tab is rooted, but I dont believe that matters, correct?
Yes it shouldn't matters...
So i played around, couldnt get DCHP to work for an IP. So i went back to creating a static IP - i missed 1 digit on DNS1 the first time which is why it didnt work last night. Once the static ip was up - boom.....magic. I called samsung support, they indicated that this is a know issue with some home routers (mine is a 2wire) and that a static IP is the solution.
thanks for all the tips above, much appreciated.
