Hi my omnia 7 always tries to connect to an open network instead of my home network,I have tried many times to delete the network but it always appears again,how can I delete or get the phone to ignore this network
Many thanks
Is the SSID of your home network hidden? If it is, WP7 will not connect to it.
Hi. No it's not hidden and will connect ok but it always defaults to the open one first ,I then have to disconnect and then connect to my home one which is annoying

If you connect your device via usb activesync than it will automatically use the computer's internet connection. (I think this is the default windows mobile behavior).

For a wireless network do the following....
Make sure that your router is not set to hide your network (Broadcast Network option should be on).
If you have used mac protection (an option on your router) then you will need to first get the mac address of your Topaz and put into into your router security.
On your Topaz do the following:
1) Go to the communications option under the setting page.
2) Turn WiFi on.
3) Press on the Wi-Fi option and it will show a screen of networks it finds and the signal strength
4) Press on your network
5) If your network is passcode or wep enabled then you will be prompted to enter the key
6) Save the connection (move to first preference if possible so it is faster to connect)
You can now select to hide your network on your router if you want to
If you set the network to autoconnect then when you turn on your WiFi in the future the network will connect automatically if in range
I figured this out before finishing posting. My phone an htc touch pro 2 unlocked to boost cdma unlimited with energy rom windows 6.6, I ran the wifi router app and it would say...connected, but, my pc would be able to get to the internet [it shows connected to...] Next, I tried to enabled the windows zero configuration by right clicking on the wireless strength bar and then I was able to click on the little pc screen that blinks when it is connecting to the network and it opened the screen with all of the wireless networks available, last I double clicked on the htcpro2 essid and it asked for the pass, but before it worked windows poped up with a window that said "your computer does not allow connection to ad-hoc networks...blah" and it explained how to do this [enable connecting to ad-hoc networks] after this was done, I connected to the network and it worked. If my instructions aren't clear then mess around with the settings until it worked. You can also ipconfig in Run>cmd>ipconfig to see if your pc acquired an ip.

Hmmm...sounds like an overprotective setting on the PC. I don't seem to remember the XDA Wifi version saying anything about being Ad-hoc. Could be wrong though...
I have problems with my wifi.
My router is like 8-10 meters away and i cant connect to it , although i see it available. When i am in a room closer , like 3-4 meters away its working fine but still disconnects a lot. Whenever it disconnects i need to go to settings and press connect or wait for it to do it itself but it usually takes a while. It disconnects every minute or so , dont know why, sometimes more often sometimes it doesnt disconnect even for 30 minutes. I can live with it disconnecting but the biggest problem is that when it disconnects and i am surfing the net (using opera mini 5) i keep getting error spam : "The answering modem has disconnected , to check your connection settings and change them if needed press settings" , and another error about problem connecting to the gprs service in my home network. Is there any way to stop this spam? When i get this every f****** 10 seconds i wanna throw my phone -.-
Ah and if it changes anything , here are my settings
Connections - Connections - Advanced - Select networks
I have My Work Network in both windows
Connections- Wi-fi
In Network Adapters card i have set "my network card connects to : Work"
In Wireless Card -(name of the router) I have selected Connects to Work, Authentication WPA-PSK, data encryption TKIP ,(password).
Please help me. This disconnecting and error spam is killing me :/
What ROM & Radio verson are you using & what is the current wifi Power Save Mode setting in Wireless LAN Power Mode tab ?
Official htc rom&radio and its set to BEST PERFORMANCE
Hey guys, so I'm having a strange problem with my WiFi network that I can't solve. So the other day, I changed the channel of my wireless router because I was getting signal issues on my computer. This caused all my devices to disconnect, however for Windows I could just re-add the network and it would connect fine.
For my One X, though, it detects the network, prompts me to enter a password, and when I tap connect, does nothing. I can even enter the wrong password. I've tried wiping the data on my phone, but this hasn't helped. I can try to forget the network, then connect again, but it does the same thing. It says the network is saved and in range, but won't connect at all. Can anyone help? Thanks
I just purchased a MiFi 500 LTE from Freedompop and have been playing around with it. It seems to work good of what I need, but I have one annoying thing I would like to see if I can bypass.
Each time I connect to the mifi, my phone (nexus 5 running stock 5.1.1) first shows a wifi icon with an exclamation point and then pops up a notification asking me to manually connect to the wifi network. Sometimes, the phone will go on and connect anyway after a few second delay. Sometimes, however, the phone will not connect, and I have to tap on the icon. When I tap on the icon, a blank page will appear. Sometimes, the blank page will immediately disappear and the phone will connect to the network automatically. However, sometimes it will not, and I have to tap on three dots in the top right corner where my options are to not connect to the network or to connect to the network as is. When I chose to connect to the network as is, it connects.
Does anyone know the cause for this? Is there some setting that I have wrong on the hotspot? Or, is this just they way these mifi hotspots are supposed to work? I was hoping it would be as seamless as connecting to my wifi router at home, where it just connects automatically as soon as it is detected.
Thanks
