WiFi internet issue on WM6

I`ve got a T-Mobile MDA with WM6 and I cannot access the internet through WiFi. The access point that I connect to is working cause I am able to access the net fine on my laptop. I made sure that my network cards are set to connecte to the internet. I even did a softreset after I made the changes.
My internet explorer just sits there on locating. I am not sure if its just my WiFi card configured incorrectly within WM6 or if its a reg setting that isn't set right.
If anyone had this issue before and got it fixed let me know or give me some direction to start.. thanks in advance for your help.

This is a fairly common problem. For me disabling the Wireless G option in the registry did the trick:
Registry: HKLM\COMM\TNETWLN1\PARMS
Key: dot11SupportedRateMaskG
Value: 1

so I diabled it, soft restet, verified that the reg change sticked, which it did. I tried to access the net again with no go.

me too
I have the exact same problem.

Not much discussion about this
I tried the G fix. Didn't work. Funny thing. It started when I installed MB. Downgrading DIDN'T fix it.

Try setting the the Network Card to connect to "The Internet" instead of "Work"

they are set to that..

That actually worked for me. (The Internet instead of work fix) I also made sure that all the boxes for "Server assigned IP address were checked. I could have sworn I tried that already. I wonder if it will stay "fixed". I'm due for a soft reset...seems to be working. I've been thinking all along it was some stupid setting.

check the change your dns to 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2 this may fix your problem

Changing to Internet and setting the DNS doesn't seem to help. Funny thing is, GMail via Midlet Manager seems to work (maybe its doing GPRS?). But IE just spins at Locating...

wifi internet issue on wm6
although i have the older version of t-mobiles' mda (wm5), i had similar issues connecting to the net even it sees a lot of wireless aps. either i cannot hold a steady connection or cannot connect at all. the solution i had was changing the channel on my wireless ap and updating my mda's parameters for my local wireless security. now i can go to the web using my mda even with poor signal quality. It is possible that you have several wireless ap's at your location sharing the same channel. hopefully changing the channel solves your problem.

simple possible solution, but check the proxy settings? I know with cingular, many people had trouble browsing the internet due to the MediaNet proxy settings. they removed the proxy settings and everything was fine then.

There is a known issue with your rom your running...there has been a new release. check the MB thread and you will see a recent listing about a 6 and 4 mb page pool, the wifi has been fixed.

I have the original MB edition and I do not have any wireless problems. I know he had to fix the re-released versions as the wifi did not work with them initially, but I was unaware of a wifi problem with the initial release.

WIFI problem don't even see networks
Hey everybody, still loving this phone and its diversity, but have flashed this little piece of hardware with the mb 4mb/6mb wm6 rom only to find that WIFI can't even be turned on!. And yes I've downed the fixed versions from a certain forum. When I turn on WIFI, It just gives the symbol in the top straight away. It just can't find the networks. I even manually added a network, it then tries to find it, but simply can't. WEIRD hey.
Is there a solution for this problem, cause I really, like the look and feel of the wm6 roms over the wm5 roms.
bye all and thanks in advance for the kind replies.

Did you try using WiFiFoFum at all to see if it can find networks? I have not had any issues with WiFi with the Most Beautiful edition whatsoever. Only thing I notice is that when the machine first turns on or right after a soft reset that I need to click the comm manager icon for wifi twice before wifi will turn on. Otherwise it finds and connects to networks perfect.

Problem with MIE
i have no problem to connect to my homenetwork with WIFI, but i cannot access the internet with the internet explorer. but it works perfect with the opera browser!

hmmm..
It's weird...
I never access the internet with the internet explorer even my wifi was connected successfully while I brushed wm6 rom.
A miracle has happened Today.
I install a WIFI Device for WM5, that one is simple Chinese language.
I tried to turn on the wifi but not work.
Then I uninstall it -> restar....
Then I tried one more time to turn on wifi, ok, it's work to connect but still can't open the web page.
I check the wireless lan, switch the power save mode to best performance.
Then....I can open web page????
Wow~~ I don't know it work cause the wifi device change something or just swtich to best performance.
Maybe you guys can try.
(Sorry to reading my poor English)

WiFi WPA-PSK Workaround and BubbleFix Service (CAB and OEM) - STABLE

OK guys!
I've developed a WiFi workaround... It's written in C++ (previous version was written in VB.NET)...
I've converted it in a Windows Mobile service... with a more efficient and more effective architecture...
It works as bubble fix only...
You can get it here as WiFiService.cab or OEM_WiFiService.zip... (you need to manually uninstall previous installed version of it)
The CAB and OEM contains the wzcsvc.dll fix too (thanks to vagus).
Let me know if it works...

mamiware said:
OK guys!
I've developed a first version of a WiFi WPA bug workaround... It's written in VB.NET and probably it's not the best in efficiency but... it seems effective...
That's the way!!!
Tomorrow or later I'll translate it in C++ as a Windows Mobile service with another more efficient architecture...
WARNINGS
It's based on a timer with an interval of 3 seconds... so to guarantee the best stability wait for 3 seconds between manual turn on or turn off...
LIMITS
This does not handle power on/off wifi bugs... only fix the reboot bug...
It seems not working when a new network is first time connected after being configured through notify messages...
You can get the cab here...
Or can get my latest ROM here...
Let me know if it works... (pay attention... it's a "beta")

Very good!
Thanky You!!!

Don't work for me.... It is working only partially, sometimes it will connect,
sometimes not (often)
I have better results when I manually turn on and off wifi to connect...
I think that this app is turning off wifi too fast....

Hi Mr Groch,
I would advise upping the timings to 5 seconds, this would give everything time to initialise and connect/disconnect cleanly.
ps........Good work!
Cheers,

New modified version... You can find the cab in the same place...
You can edit and test delays...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\WiFiWPA\Interval: seconds between wifi state monitoring (default is 5)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\WiFiWPA\Delay: seconds between turn on and turn off (default is 3)
I've tried to develop a C++ service... but it doesn't work... is anyone out there that can help?

New Version
This is written in C++... more efficient... but not yet a WM service... softreset required...
It works as BubbleFix too...
Let me know...
You find the cab here as WiFiService.cab...

Excellent work. Exactly what I was waiting for. It works with my Netgear wi-fi set up with WPA-PSK. Could this be incorporated in the new rom Beast is likely to release for G4 devices?

It's still buggy, I think that there will be other versions soon...
When all the known bugs solved, I'll merge it in my ROM... (for Beast ROM you should ask him for it...)
BUGS (BubbleFix)
1. Sometimes it doesn't refresh immediatly the new status... and tapping again cause the wlan driver to act strange (the network adapter simply disappears!). To quickly solve the problem you can turn wlan on by Wireless LAN applet in Settings or softreset...
2. It shows itself when flight mode is activated too...
3. It doesn't handle keyboard input in the connectivity dialog... only stylus input...
I'll work on these bugs on Monday...
Let me know about other bugs!

Thanks. waiting for the next update of your Rom with this and VOIP fix. Well done!

bugy but works. Finally I can use wifi on my Uni... Thanx a lot.

fuih... at last, my WI FI is working alright now, I can connect anytime without any problem at all - thank you

UPDATE
New version available... download again the WiFiService.cab from here...
Now it handles the flight mode and better manage WiFi power on and off...
It's still buggy if used with the common (and old) CommManager... I'll probably develop a new version of CommManager that better handles WiFi...
You can disable the BubbleFix feature changing
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\WiFiWA\Balloon = 0

How does this work exactly?
I installed it on my htc touch, but I still can't connect to my WPA-PSK AES protected network :-(

The application is notified by windows when the Wifi state changes (through the HKLM\System\State\Hardware\Wifi registry value...)
When it happens, if the new state is "connecting" (i.e. 11 or 15) it switches off the Wifi device after 5 seconds (Interval) and turn it on again after 3 seconds (Delay)...
To solve your problem... you should verify two things:
1. What's the name of your Wifi device? I think you can find it HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager\WLAN\DeviceName
Fix: If you confirm it's stored there, I'll update the application making it read the device name from registry...
2. What are the states of the device written in HKLM\System\State\Hardware\Wifi? They would be similar...
Fix: Turn on and off the Wifi device and refresh your registry viewer window... Take note of the values and tell me...
I'll wait for your reply to update the app...
Pay attention: this workaround simulates the manual turn on and off fix... if it doesn't work manually, this application is useless...

Well, the problem is the manual disable/enable trick doesn't work for me, but I thought maybe the timings were wrong so I was hoping your app would work for me. I can't understand why this trick works for everyone, except for me :-s
I'll try your updated version now, maybe this helps.

Update (recommended)
New version available as Windows Mobile service (with a more efficient and more effective architecture).
You can get it here as WiFiService.cab or OEM_WiFiService.zip... (you need to manually uninstall previous installed version of it)
For more information look at the first post of this thread...
There is another fix out here for WPA-PSK bug... I'm waiting for comments on it...

Wifi FIX
Hi,
I'm curious how progress is doing.
Going to test your fix Mamiware!
Keep you updated!
Thank you

Wifi connect's but buggy, wlan manager crashed the first time.
Needed to softreset the device to turn on WLAN again.
Wifi bubble to turn off wlan I don't see.
After the device has switched of because of power setting I can't turn wifi on again.
Need to softreset again.
I have wpa-psk tkip enabled.
CommManager version 0.9.1.1

Att Fuse Problem

Hello Everyone,
I just received a ATT fuse and for the life of me I cannot seem to get the WIFI to work. I've had the tilt and the 8125 previously and I tried duplicating settings to no avail.
Are there known issues with the WIFI on this phone?
I can connect to my WEP enabled wireless router, but opera and IE fails to connect and just keeps giving me errors. This is what I have read and what I have tried:
Setting to "work" instead of "Internet"
I've tried the cab files posted in another thread to disable ATT proxy
I'm a little lost in what to check. I did follow everything I've read here that came up in "WIFI" search. I have not unlocked the phone nor flash a rom.
Could someone lend a hand?

Sign up for the att media program...its on the attwireless site

This is a bit drastic, but an easy potential fix is to flash another ROM (after flashing Hard-SPL of course). AT&T often adds a bunch of unnecessary crap to their ROMs, which may interfere with normal functions. You could always flash the AT&T ROM back if you'd like.

Hi Animexi80,
I already have a data plan. The problem isn't with Media net, it is with the phone's built in WIFI.
Trancecoder,
Really, that drastic of a step.. Do you know of a rom that fixed a WIFI problem?
Thanks

Honestly, I never even gave the AT&T ROM a chance, so I was unaware of Wi-Fi issues. Pretty much any ROM should work. If you flash a Fuze-specific ROM, you may want to run the CAB that disables the hidden AT&T proxy. If you flash a generic Touch Pro ROM, you'll likely need to run a CAB that fixes the keyboard layout.

Ok, I suppose I will give it a go.
If I may ask, would you tell me which rom and radio you're running. It would help rule things out it it doesn't correct the problem.
thanks

What is the "hidden AT&T proxy?"
I just got an AT&T Fuze and after enableing wifi using the wireless manager, had no trouble connecting to home wireless networks with various security configurations (WEP, WPA, hidden SSID, etc.). Of course if the access point has the MAC filter enabled, the Fuze MAC address must be added to the allowed list.

TweedyPepper said:

I'm running an older PROven ROM, version 1.03. I'll be upgrading soon, probably to NATF's ROM. My radio ROM is 1.08.25.20, but (1) the radio ROM doesn't control Wi-Fi, so it's moot, and (2) it has not had very good battery life, so I'll downgrade back to 1.02.25.28 tonight.

It's a proxy setting, separate from the normal one under Connections, that is hidden. It's used to make things such as Cingular, er, Cellular Video work.

This is a bit off-topic, but FYI, anything below WPA/WPA2 cannot be considered secure. WEP can be cracked in minutes, hidden SSIDs don't make APs invisible, and MAC filtering is useless (except with WPA/WPA2) as anyone sniffing traffic can see client MAC addresses in the clear.

I have found that sometimes when I have both a "data connection" and a "wi-fi" connection that they phone seems to not lock on the wi-fi but tries to use a weak data connection so try turning off the data connection and see if that fixes the problem. Also give a soft reset a try as well.

Surprised by how few ppl are having wi-fi issues. I've tried about 6 ROMs now and have the same problem with everyone (guessing this proves its more of a hardware vs software issue)
I can locate and connect to a wi-fi network but no data transfers. I have to continually disconnect/turn off/reconnect over and over and finally I will get a connection..but if unit goes into sleep for a few minutes...I have to repeat.
Very annoying...no one else is having wi-fi issues?

Hi Everyone,
Sorry I haven't reported back sooner. I wound up loading a different rom on the phone and away went the problem.
jank0023, I have no idea. I would flash the phone back to stock and return it for another if all else fails. In all my searching, here and elsewhere, there ahve been a handful of wifi problems I came across. It doesn't seem like that common of a problem afaik.

If its your router try another channel make sure its on a supported signal (a,b, g)... lastly ensure your router is excepting all devices. I know these are basic checklist items but sometimes these can get us. I had a laptop that would only work on channel 6 ;-).

Thanks guys for the suggestions...I don't think its related to my network setup as I have about 4 other devices able to obtain signals with no problems using DHCP.
Issues don't seem to be as severe on some of the most recent ROMs I've used but still not perfect.

Awesome, thank you for this. I was having similar problems with mine after the Froyo flash too. I'll give it a shot.

I've been using Froyo since DG posted the link to JI6...and I've never had this issue. I use wifi on a daily basis. Weird.

Super weird...what would your android id have to do with wifi?

I didn't have any issues until Cog 2.5.5. Once I flashed it my wifi just quit on me. I tried going back to stock Froyo to see if that was the problem, but no luck. As soon as I changed my device ID to what I had on Eclair everything got fixed.

I was having the same problem. I found a workaround that doesn't require changing anything on your phone. I accessed my router settings, changed the security type from WEP to WPA2 and the phone obtained the IP address immediately. Hopefully this will help out those of you who aren't familiar or comfortable with flashing your device yet.

Thanks for the info. Decent work around. I would still like to resolve the issue, but for now this works.
I did all of the steps in the original post, but it did not correct the issue. Actually made my phone worse. Now I cannot get into download mode, and I'm on Cognition beta 8 and my GPS does not work. It was working on Froyo leak, but had these same wifi issues.

This workaround is not working on my fios router. It is working on my netgear router at work. I'm not that well-versed to explain either situation. I just don't like hitting my data plan when I was getting wifi before 2.2 flash. And even then, it was working for a few weeks.

I ve flashed my phone and everythjng works great till one day when I wasn't able to connect to my wi fi at home (using wep key). But at my office works like a charm with wpa key.

If you are still having issues with your wifi after using the two work arounds mentioned in this thread I would reccomend flashing back to stock JF6, doing a master clear and reflash your current ROM. I would not suggest restoring system data using TiBU after doing the master clear as this could carry over your wifi issues. Yes I know it sucks to have to redo all your settings, but if it gets your wifi working then I would say it's worth it. After you restore your apps and such reapply the first fix that I mentioned to change your device ID back.

I did all the steps you mentioned in the first post. But I dont see any Android_id entry in secure tab.
I am using sqlitebrowser to edit settings.db file.
I am getting wi-fi getting Ip address error after installing odin3 1 click froyo update for captivate.

WIFI problem after ICS upgrade

HI. Today I updated my non-rooted HTC Desire S to ICS 4.0.4 (3.0.16-gce03037 Kernel) from official site... Everything is working fine, but I have problem using the WIFI connection.
I can enable/disable WiFi, I have no problems with OS freezing when I switch on or off wireless, etc. I configured it properly (I did not restore any settings from my backup software) and manually, and in status bar I can see that network is connected. It seems that everything is working fine but:
1. I cannot access the Internet from the phone
2. My access point does not list my HTC as connected device at all
I am desperate because this is the only thing that is not working after upgrade, and I use WiFi a lot
Thank you all for helping regarding this.

I don't know if it is the same issue i was experiencing some time ago, but seems that older Wi-Fi router have some problems with ics roms and later versions (jelly bean). I have resolved by changing my router but you could try specificy a static ip address for your phone and see if it works.

No, I don't think so, but maybe the AES encryption could be the problem. Try swiching to WPA or WPA2 and see if it works.

Well, no. You could still try to root your phone, install a Jelly Bean based Rom and specify a static IP. JB is slightly better with WiFi than ICS so I think this is your last call.
Otherwise you can still use the pass-through internet option is "Stock option" of the Rom settings, but this means that the phone must be plugged in the PC.

Not from my knowledge. You can try downloading wifix from the market, for some users has worked, but not for me.

OK, now things are getting very weird!
First of all, I tried with "wifix" and bunch of other market "wifi fix apps", but with no success. After that I connected to my WiFi and try to ping my laptop which resides on the same AP and.... with SUCCESS! I looked at my AP statistics and I cannot still observe that my HTC is connected to the AP, but I could ping the laptop and default gateway (which is AP of course). I tried to do SSH to the HTC and that was successful too. It seems that my WIFI is working only locally, because when I try to ping public IP I get the destination unreachable error message. On the ifconfig's interface statistics I can see Rx and Tx counters increases on the wlan0 interface, but on the AP I still cannot see that my HTC is connected.
I looked up in to the routing table, and there was everything as should be. I am sure that there is no IP address conflict inside my network, I am sure that my HTC is authenticated and connected on the right wireless channel.
Guys, this issue is very weird, can somebody give some hint about it?
Please, see attachments there is much more info regarding this.

Ok, here is the update in attachment, it seems that I have problem on the layer 3 of the OSI model. I think that I can summarize the following:
1. Radio is working
2. All MAC layer things are also fine
3. Encryption is ok
4. IP packets transportation between the HTC and router is not working.
I am not good with linux, and my phone is not rooted.What can I do to troubleshoot this part of the networking now?

Hello to all again.
Believe or not I still have the same problem. HTC support is USELESS... I tried with factory reset, and I still got a problem. I am loosing patience now... Can somebody tell me how to revert back to previous OS, please? Where to download, and how to install it?
