no Wifi- HW failure? - Touch Pro, Fuze General

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.

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).

Help WIFI wont work at all!

Well i been trying several roms from here and they all seem to not work with my wifi. My phone doesnt detect my router and even in airports or other places. Is there something that i need to do to the setting or do the 6.1 roms simply dont have wifi capabilities?
WM6.1 has Wifi capabilities but it just doesnt automatically connects to the router. You have to goto Settings\Connections\Wifi there you'll see all available hotspots and select one and then press Left SOftkey for Connect. Hope i helped
If you've tried reflashing, hard restting, and it still doesn't work, you probably have a defected device. Try getting near a router (a few feet) and see if it catches a signal then.
I use AMP v2 rom, and while it has been tempermental about connecting to BT headsets at times, the wifi works fine...picked up my signal immediately. I have used other 6.1 roms and all have connected. I am not certain if there is a specific setting, but I have never entered anything other than my wep key.
first of all thanks for all the replies. I do get the siganl from routers but it just wont connect when i click connect. and i dont think i have a defective device because the wifi worked fine when i had wm5. Is there any other suggestions someone has?

Wifi troubles
I went through hell trying to get wifi working in my home with the router and after a week I figured out it was the wireless security camera's I had interfering with the router.

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
ROM 3.14.731.04 JPN
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...

[Q][NS4G][D720][CM9] Wifi connection issues

I am running the latest version of the ROM found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1519138
I am having basic issues connecting at home; once connected I am fine but sometimes if I leave and come back I can't connect at all. Rebooting had no effect. It will just sit there and do nothing even if I try forcing it to connect or forgetting the network and resubmitting the needed information.
It is worth noting that while running stock 4.0.4 before I flashed the rom I had little to no troubles with wifi; it even handled EAP like a champ (I have yet to test it on EAP with this rom).
Any/all help is appreciated...thanks!
**EDIT** I believe the problem may have something to do with the fact that I am running the latest CM9 nightly on my HP Touchpad, as only one device seems to be able to connect at a time, although I know that they both can and have connected simultaneously. The device that doesn't connect seems to have issues obtaining an IP Address from the router.
