I have had my Fuze for a couple of weeks now and with all of the smart phones that I have had before this have all had the same issue for which I could not figure out a solution for it is a weird internet issue
some of the error msgs that would come up would be from opera and it would say something like "could not find proxy server" or "network problem"
when it tries to connect to the data network. But note that it can connect to the data network just fine just no use of the internet on the device for apps like Opera, Fring ,ect..
For example when I am using my device to surf the internet or something. after a while lets say I want to check an email or something that requires the use of the data connection for some odd reason the device wont connect for anything in the world it will just say can't connect to network. I have tried many trouble shooting techniques even actually listened to an att rep and followed their directions. But to no avail, I often turn to my last option hard resetting the device restoring the data and hoping that the issue will not come back. But it does after a while.
Now here is where the twist comes in.
I am still able to get a internet connection to my ipod touch via wm wifirouter 0.91.
so that is where the true issues comes in I can use the internet on my ipod touch via wm wifirouter but not on the actual device its self.
if anyone happen to have any advice or what not please feel free to send it over it would really help me out and others as well of course and if not at least this issue can be looked at by a future scientist for a possible cure

Okay, no idea what's going on with my phone here. Whenever I connect to the internet through any application, HTC weather, Opera, streaming radio, not a problem. It connects without issue. However, sometimes I get this message on my screen: http://www.flickr.com/photos/clewis4u91/3737272578/
I have no idea why this comes up. I have no problems connecting! I have automatic weather updates off, Windows Update set to manually check (however it stopped working a month ago anyways), QuickGPS isn't set to automatic either, as well as my email. Something is trying to connect at some point, but isn't able to.
Normally it wouldn't be a big deal for me, however here's why it's bothering me. This has happened TWICE so far in the past week, disconnecting phone calls. This seems to be happening randomly. I was on a phone call, and I didn't hear anyone talking so I looked at the screen, and that message was displayed. The next day, the same thing happened while on a phone call, to a completely different phone number. Soft reset does not solve the issue.
I have done absolutely no changes to my device or it's settings. I can connect to the internet whenever I want, so the connection settings have to be okay? Doing a quick Google search basically showed me that the people getting the same error, were unable to connect altogether, which is not the case for me. I would greatly appreciate any help you can offer. Thanks.
Sorry, I left out some phone information. I'm running on a Bell (CDMA) HTC Touch Diamond on Windows Mobile Professional 6.1 using stock ROM.
Im having an odd problem, where windows live does not seem to attempt to use the default Internet Connection settings on my device. I am connected to the internet, via 3G, i can download emails, browse the web etc. However windows live does not seem to want to use this connection. It signs in fine over wifi, but as soon as I disable wifi and try to connect directly over 3G, it fails.
The odd thing, is that it doesn't even attempt to open an Internet Connection over 3G before it fails. I would expect the sign in process to try and open an new connection but it just displays a connectivity error. I suspect it is trying to connect over an invalid connection, though there seems no way to tell Windows Live to connect over a specific connection like you can with regular mail.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I might discover the cause of this problem? The only change of note I have made before this error started was to setup an Exchange account with Googles sync feature, however I fail to see how that could be the cause.
Welcome to forums
Try reinstaling live messenger or use another version
It would help a lot to know what device you have
Sorry, thought I had my specs in my sig. runnign and Xperia on Stock Aussie ROM (WM6.1). Have tried reinstalling but to no avail...
I have the same problem with my Palm Treo Pro on Telstra Next G, and all effort so far have been fruitless, my main problem is that when the phone goes into sleep mode so does Windows Live/Messenger rendering the whole thing useless. No such problem exists with my Nokia 6120 which connects Windows Live thru Next G without issue. Just about ready to go back to Fring which also had no Next G problems.
(This is not device specific errors.)
HTC HD7, used for 2 months. From 2 days ago. basically stopped connecting to WiFi networks with NEW names. As soon as taping on the new network, it goes to 'connection unsuccessful' error instantly. (Not even trying to connect), while my other devices working fine on these networks. The phone is actually able to connect to any other wifi network it had previously remembered (SSIDs like linksys, netgear, even other hotel wifis, coffee wifis,). I have tried at least 10 different new wifi network, the phone simply refused to connect..
Note with 'secured network', phone asks for a password, but as soon as taping 'done', error message appearing straight away (connection unsuccessful, note, if typed wrong password, does give a different error, 'invalid password') and ask to retype password. Note, this is not due to wrong password, the password has been thoroughly tested.)
Any ideas?? I have been travelling a lot with my phone these two months. Like 10 different cities...imagine the number of wifi profiles saved in my phone?? like 100+?? The windows phone give up on me?? Comeon....my iphone has not done that in 3 years....
Additional note, the tested networks are 802.11b/g not n. So should be fine......
Since this HALF BUILT windows phone 7 SW does not have other useful menus that allow me to explore a bit further in the phone. All I can do is just restart wifi, phone.....I do not want to reset..BTW, the SW does not offer reset setting option...only reset whole phone.....?
Possible solution:
1. I have read through this forum. Looks like it is possible to play with the registry files (to remove some of the wifi profiles)?
2. When I get home, I will change my home router to the SSIDs that the phone might have connected to and delete them when they pop up to free some space. This way, I should be able to verify my theory!
If you long press a remembered wifi profile, you get the option to delete it
Yes, of cuz. But u have to let the remembered network to appear in your list in the first place? How do you do that when u r travelling around?
This is just ridiculous.
I am seeking methods outside what I mentioned above.
Waiting for someone to help here...
I have tried to change my home network SSID to those the phone had previously remembered and made some discovery.
Basically the phone is able to connect to thos old SSID given they are unsecured. I was also able to delete those profiles...
However, here is the however, after deleting several old profiles, I still was not able to connect to new wifi network...And what was worse, after restarting the phone, I cannot connect to the previous SSID I have just deleted....
Basically, the phone has stopped accepting new Wifi profiles....This is some serious software bug.
A SW that is full of BUG and no fixes and no one cares...

I imagine Microsoft tech support would care if you called them.
The only thing you can try is to hard reset.

I didn't realize we worked for MS. Like most severe smartphone problems, you need to hard reset. If you talk to MS support they will tell you that, if you call the OEm, they will tell you that as well.
edit: and how do you know this isn't device specific?
The OP is correct. There is no way to delete remembered wifi networks without actually being in its vicinity. I have had this problem. Sometimes, a soft reset fixes the problem. Other times, I delete the network, then try reconnecting. Other times, if the router is accessible, a quick power rest fixes the problem. Also, sometimes, connecting to another network, deleting it, and then reconnecting back to the desired network solves the problem.
However, there are times that the wifi simply refuses to connect no matter what.
This looks more like an software problem. But I should not have said it is not a device specific problem 100%.
Till today, I have used Tune to backup my pictures...but have not decided to reset it yet. Cuz a lot of things need to be manually restored..
I think I will wait for the first important update come out and see if that fixes anything.
All of these arises because the OS is like a rush job, a lot of functions and menus simply does not exist.....
My phone still refuses to connect to ANY NEW wifi network. Including the one it remembered (if I delete them)
This problem has not been solved still. Just wondering is any body else having the same problem?
just ride off wp7, go for android htc desire hd,this thred will go for soooooooo many pages until you get solved your problem.please dont waist your time here like me.
This problem has been FIXED with March update!!! Now the phone runs faster and there are heaps of apps. Now I am waiting for flash and skype api etc...
Hi there.
Just got a new HTC Titan on WP7.5, and it has come to my attention that annoyingly, whenever I try to download anything from the Marketplace through 3G, it sticks on the "Downloading..." screen. However, when I attempt to do this via WiFi, it downloads without trouble. I've had a look at a couple of threads with this same problem and there doesn't seem to be a true fix available for Windows Phone users. I've tried hard resetting the handset to no avail, and it's worth noting that the content I'm attempting to download is under 20mb.
Secondly, I seem to be having a problem connecting to Facebook/WLM Chat; on 3G, it connects successfully, displays online contacts and receives messages. Only problem being that, given about 30 seconds, it will randomly disconnect me. This leads me to have to resync both my Facebook and Live account for the chat to work again... for another 30 seconds.
Again, this works flawlessly when done through Wi-Fi - so you're most likely thinking that it's down to the network, right? Well, the browser works just fine on 3G at all times, so I'm unsure whether to blame the ISP for this one.
Any help would strongly be appreciated.

Can no-one actually offer any type of solution here?
Hi guys,
I have a Virgin Media Hub (VMDG480) and 3x WP7, a HD7, a TITAN and a N 710.
I'm having some serious problems with connecting to the internet.
I connect to my WiFi and it works great, I can go to wherever I wish.
However when my phone locks it's screen and I try browsing again, it just fails, it says We're having trouble displaying this page.
I've restored my router to factory defaults.
I've hard reset my HD7.
I'm still having issues. Is anybody else having similar issues?
I don't really wanna call Virgin Media 'cos they're all useless and they will tell me that it's my devices.
Also, I just managed to load google after 2mins, and I checked my IP and it isn't the same external IP as my router. Do WP7 default to 3G if the WiFi connection fails?
:-(
Yes, WP7 will fall back to the cellular data connection if it's unable to access the requested server over WiFi. The fallback typically takes no more than 30 seconds, sometimes less.
Sorry, didn't even realise I had a reply.
Thanks for that answer, anybody else had issues with the Virgin Media hub and WP7?
