Unable to connect to W/L Router - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De

I am running L26 Kaiser Diamond V6, which is running great, except that I cannot connect to my wireless router. I have other HTC devices which are connecting ok, whereas my kaiser detects the network but will not connect.
I have upgraded the Radio to 1.65.20.29 and installed MSVC 1.6 ontop of L26 Diamond V6.
I have downgraded the radio, but this does not make any difference ...

I have a similar problem in that I can connect, but only get access to the network if the WLAN power setting is on "Best Performance". Does that setting also not work for you?
If that doesn't help, then more info could be useful. Do you get an ip address assigned if you're set on auto (dhcp)?

My problem is the same.
Coming from a Dutty Rom, loading hardSPL 3.29 and then moving to Laurentius V8 with radio 1.58.25.17 I can't connect to my home wireless lan. As with other roms this connection problem never was an item, I thought perhaps a stubborn byte could be the culprit. So I did hard reset the Kaiser and reinstalled the V8 twice.
Settings on handheld 'Best Performance'. Even removed the security keys from the wlan. No result. Strange, because many people don't have the slightest problem with it.

I have changed the setting to best performance, but it makes no difference, HTC is set to dhcp, I will try fixed IP and see if that makes any difference.

I have got a result ( not ideal ), the wireless connection now connects, but only when the radio is switched of (Phone) within comm manager. From this I would say that the problem lies with the Radio ROM / CAB part of this ROM, maybe Larentius could look into it.... I will try someother Radio version to see it we can resolve this...

Experimented with that already: No difference here.

I have also noticed that, if the Phone is switched on within in Comm Manager once the wireless connection has connected, then it remains ON. If the W/L is switched off and on again it does not connect. I will test further and report back

Sthpnz, try it like this, cause its works for me :-
Switch OFF phone
Switch ON Bluetooth
Switch ON Wireless
Switch ON Phone
ALL three, above, stay ON, until your pda goes into standby and you lose Wifi again.

I am running L26 Kaiser Diamond V8 and am able to connect to wlan easy enough, however when i connect to another wlan and then try to reconnect to my home hub at a later date it asks me to re enter my network key, tries to connect and never actually suceeds. It seems to forget the network key i constantly and tries to randomly connect through gprs??? I managed to find a way to do it by soft reseting my phone, the kaiser would then find the network on its own and connect after the network key is entered. Why it does this i don't know. I find that the radio that comes with this rom is the best i've used yet, but maybe this is its one flaw?

oh by the way the radio i'm using is 1.58.25.17

I have downgraded my Radio to 1.64.08.21, which appears to work better, if I change WiFi to best performance. However, it is now causing a problem with MS voice Command, so I will uninstall and reinstall MSVC to if I can keep this radio and MSVC working.

@isek: nope, the wlan will not connect using this recipe. Thinking about downgrading the radio. Report back later.

I'm on wlan again!
Simply by going back to Dutty's April 26 Rom with fitting radio. No problems anymore.
So what is changed:
I had Laurentius V8 with radio 1.58.25.17 and HardSPL 3.29.
Now I have Dutty's April 29th lite rom with radio 1.65.14.06 and still HardSPL 3.29

I reflashed a few roms, some worked with WiFi but then failed with MSVC. After some more searching I came across L26 Diamond V5 which has voice command and a radio which gives me WiFi & VC (both Work together). I think that the newer ROMS which have Radios that work with Wifi for me failed on MSVC because of the version of MSVC it has to be 1.6.19213 and L26 diamond V5 has this built in.
Now I have to find a MSVC 1.6.192113 CAB and try on a newer ROM..

My euphoria was not long lasting. After the first up- and downloads the kaiser could not connect anymore with the wlan. Oh yes the signal is available and strong, but it will not connect.
The only option now is to change hardspl 3.19 for an older one. I'll try that later. Now my job waits.

After alot of messing around, I now have wifi working without any issues.
My original settings for my router were a hidden network, WPA2 PSK using TKIP, I have changed TKIP to AES and my kaiser connects much more quickly and most of the time. Will this help others ? i really don't know, however, I would strongly suggest changing settings on you router as it certainly helped me.

hey guys I had a problem with l26 v9 as well turns out it don't pick up certain wifi channels being 12,13,6,5, check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405737 for more info

Wireless loosing connection in WM6

Since I upgraded to Jw Crossbow 2.02.00 + Radio 1.13. I have frequently that after waking up or during operation that the wireless connection get's lost.
Only turning off and on the wireless in the Communication Manager makes a connection again. Very annoying after a few weeks now.
My question here is if I go back to Radio 1.09 would that solve my problem?
If so, is there a link were I can download radio 1.09 seperatly?
Thanks for your help.
Am I the only one with this problem?

Wich WM6 ROM can connect to WPA Wifi

There are so many images to find here, but i'm looking for the latest one that can connect to WPA. Can someone tell me wich one i can use.
Went back to wm5, (latest Version),there were just to many problems with the wm6 roms.even my tmc quit working for me with the wm6 roms,back to wm5 everything is working fine again.
no problem with jrightmcps 2.02.00
gonna test that 2.02.00 version. hope that ones worked fine with WPA. will let you know
jrightmcps 2.02.02 works fine connected to WPA.
Not had any problems with the WLAN side, just Bluetooth can be funny sometimes, worked fine for over a month then started stopping at random intervals, icon on start page still showed BT as enabled, but comm manager showed as stopped. Once that happens either a soft reset or going into flight mode fixes it.
flashed to 2.2.0 version but still can't connect to wifi. after looking further i say my router is configurate as WPA TKIP+ AES maybe thats why i can connect. gonna test the settings tonight on my router.
I used to use Darkforce, and I'm pretty sure I connected to a WPA2 router before. (I could be wrong though, that was awhile ago)
ie tried many roms and then i flashed jwrightmcps 2.02.00 for his wonderful wifi connectivity. i use it both with wep lans and wpa (tkip) lans without any problem.

That is WPA2 then, can only connect via WPA (WPA-PSK or TKIP).

Does anyone have WPA(PSK/TKIP) sucess?

1,open of course sucess.
2, WPE also sucess.
But WPA(Pre-SharedKey) can not be sucess.
D900 version: 18159 WWE.
For me only Jwrightcmp's WM6 2.02.02 ROM works. Or WM5.
UPDATE!!! Working
Goes through all of the right motions but unfortunately does not connectfor me either. WEP and open do work for me. I use WEP and MAC filtering at home, but would prefer TKIP.
I left it sit on my desk for about half an hour, trying to access the wireless router. I was checking it one last time, before giving up, but it had connected!!!! I will try again tomorrow and report back.
Works But Buggy IMO
I Personally Use WEP At Home Even Though I Know It Can Be Cracked In 5-10 Mins With The Right Knowledge, (Ive Done It Myself Even With MAC Filtering Enabled)
My Girlfriend Has SKY Broadband And Her Router Uses WPA:TKIP.
I Find That I Can Connect On Most WM6 Roms But I Have To Do The Following:
Enable WIFI.
Wait For WIFI To Start The Connection Process.
Disable WIFI.
Enable Wifi Again.
Now My Wireless Connects And Works.
Im Not Sure That This Works With All WPA Configurations But For Me This Works With WPA:TKIP On WM6 ROMs That Are Supposed To Suffer From The WPA Bug.
If This Works For Anyone Else Then Feel Free To Confirm This Method.

im sorry, didn't mean to be mean.
That was my despair talking...
We are a family!!!
Thanks you all for your kindly and usefull info that i checked:
build 15341, direct to use WPA/PSK;
build 18159: just followed OllieD said, and possible use WPA, 18159 not very stable.
build 17913: as Ollied said, During searching WPA, just switch off wifi and take it on, then WPA connected. Ok, i will use this stable and fast ROM untill a usefull G4 ROM build 18508 (or 19xxx)!!!

This has always worked for me in WM6.
I reported yesterday that I had success with WPA-TKIP, that is still the case. I reflashed today with Leo's latest, and even though there are still some issues, I was able to connect today again to WPA-TKIP at work. It took time for the first connect to go through, but whenever I came back to the device, woke it up and relinked, it has been fine all day. I will check again on Monday and Tuesday, But it appears to work for me. (I have a G3) one of the earliest Uni's in the US through a special importer.
Another trick

I use a little different approach since yours doesn't work for me (just change step 3 and 4):
Enable WIFI.
Wait For WIFI To Start The Connection Process.
Turn off Uni and wait a couple of seconds.
Turn on Uni.
Now My Wireless Connects And Works.
Marco.
cails to connect the first time only
1.switch on wifi (using connection manager) - fails to connect
2. switch off wifi
3. switch on wifi and it successfully connects.

im using the same rom and WPA PSK/TKIP works fine it connects fast and keeps connected
No WPA PSK/TKIP problems with Darkforce Rom. It may be outdated but still rocks!
Hi
I'm using Leo's latest rom update 1 (1.17.00,42.53.P8,2.11.00 WWE,5.2.1908 b18508.0.7.0. My bootloader says 1.00 so I guess its a G3)
I've been trying all 3 methods I've read here for about a week (wifi on wait 30 mins, wifi on, off and back on, wifi on and uni off and back on) with my old Netgear WGT624 (one of the early 108Mbps routers).
Finally today I started changing the settings on the router and got it working. I changed the "mode" setting from "Auto 108" to "g only" but it still didn't work. Then I changed it to "b and g" and the "wifi off - wait 2 secs - back on" worked immediately. I guess the other 2 methods will work too.

18508 for G4 run out but WPA fault!
also, switched on wifi but can not switch it off!
G4 Build 18508 by ranju.
this is the first G4 build 18508 ROM, Thanks ranju anyway!!!
finding a commManager to update maybe fix this!
if we haven't a commManager, how to switch WIFI on and off???
Try this, it's already working on other devices like the Axim X51V and the HX4700.
Download Instructions: download archive http://rapidshare.com/files/59123134/x51v_wm6_wpa_fix.rar.html
You must copy wzcsvc.dll to your \windows folder
You can't do that in your PDA.
1- Turn-off wifi, then soft-reset your PDA
2- Connect to your PC via activesync
3- Copy wzcsvc.dll from PC to \windows folder of PDA via ActiveSync's explorer
Thanks to vagus

I have the same problem... I'll develop a new CommManager soon... that will cooperate with my WiFiService... You can use this to effectively turn on/off the WiFi device through the Connectivity balloon (fixed)...
goodmorning ! wake up HTC Universal users
this may your most important update since wm6 is possible
This software eliminates the need for turn off/turn on trick to connect wpa networks on Dell Axim x51V, and HP HX 4700.
i suppose it will also work for you

WIFI problems related to WEP (and other encryptions) is hardware or software? HELP!!

I have spent the last week at work more focused on the XDA forum than what I am actually paid to do here at work...
I am so unproductive now, I am actually willing to donate to the forum if the forum can produce results, so that I can finally get back to work in peace!
I have thoroughly read through most relevant posts. I cannot find any specific post that solves the problem I have, so I decided to post anew, against some suggestions...
Anyway, the problem is that,
I cannot get any of my applications that are internet-dependent (skype, mail, weather etc) to access the WIFI connection that "apparently" looks connected, IF WEP (or any other encryption, for that matter) is enabled on the WIFI Router.
OK, what I mean by "apparently" is that the Wifi signal appears at its fullest, the lollipop on top of the screen with arrows is there, and even if I go into start>settings>Connections>wifi, it says that (my particular internet connection, named) Linksys is "connected".
The problem is, with wep encryption (and any other encryptions), it has worked once or twice. I cannot remember if that was before or after the Hard-SPL and radio downgrade (to get it unlocked) but ever since that "beginners luck" connection, I have had no success with connecting these apps to internet through WIFI.
First of all, I cannot figure out why, but I can connect by
1/ GPRS (the only available here in Vietnam - no 3G /HSDPA yet),
2/ with open connection and no encryptions of any kind by the WIFI router, my WIFI and Raphael connects fine. Data transfer happens.
The reality is, it is not very realistic for me to ask all others at work to make their WIFI connection with no security or encryptions..
So, having explained the situation, in a nutshell, problem is that by enabling excryption like WEP, the connection does not allow me to use WIFI on my raphael.
Is this hardware or software on Raphael side? or is it WIFI router side?
Other devices, including my TyTn II connects fine with WEP, which rules out the router, right?
I cannot remember if the problem started before or after OliPro unlock...
If it worked before but not now, there is of course always the possibility of hardware mulfunction, but since it works with no encryption, I am guessing it is hardware?
I have gone to other WIFI networks that are healthy, with other hand held devices happily connected to WIF, but nope...not me...
Any ideas guys?
WRT54G2 Wireless_G Router
DHCP Enabled,
Wireless network mode is set at mixed (both G and B, but by the way, I have tried only G and only B too, with no luck)
Channel set at 1, SSID enabled.
WM 6.1

Radio 1.10 Olinex

AFAIK, Raphael connects to WEP, WPA, WPA2(TKIP/AES)...
did you try deleting all the wifi settings and reconnecting?
or hard reset?

I completely understand what you are going through & I am going to suggest something for you but the results might vary.
Make sure that Wi-Fi is turned off.
Open your Comm Manager | Settings | Wireless LAN.
When you're in the Wireless LAN Settings panel, select Power Mode.
Slide the selector to Best Performance.
Tap OK & when you're back in the Comm Manager, turn on the Wi-Fi adapter.
Setup your work connection & see if your internet connections work.
One thing to note, while this has resolved my connectivity problems, the settings are not always saved for some unknown reason.
So, be prepared to key in the settings again.
I resorted to everything , not leaving anything to chance, and did many things at once.
It is now fixed, it seems, but at great cost in terms of time, and I cannot be sure which one of these was actually helpful.
But I hard-reset the TP, as well as updating the firmware on both the modem and the WIFI router, and then did hard reset on them too...
I cannot judge on what turned out to be true on other peoples' TP, but for me at least, for both TyTn II and Touch Pro I am currently using, setting connection from "internet" to> "Work" did not help at all....
Thanks anyways...

no Wifi- HW failure?

Hi!
I just got a raph100 up and running, and started by updating the ROM. But after I updated it to the newest version my wifi wouldn't work, when I pressed the enable wifi-button it just kept spinning until it gave up, nothing happened.
I'm starting to think this is a HW problem as I can't see the mac-adress or anything from WM, and in android it just says error.
So I was wondering if there is anyway I could know for sure wether or not it's a hardware failure ?
help appreciated!
Go to a Starbucks or McDonalds and see if you can connect there.
If you can, then it is either the security you have on your wifi router, or the router itself may have firmware issues that your Raph is sensitive to.
I was having issues with the security protocols between my Raph and my router. All my wireless laptops were fine, but the Raph either wouldn't connect, or would connect but lose connectivity quickly. I changed my routers firmware to DD-WRT and everything is fine now.
I've seen this happen personally when I didn't keep the rilphone.dll file and the radio in lockstep on WM 6.5; verify that you have the correct rilphone.dll installed for the radio that is flashed on your phone.
