Hi everyboy, I have an Blue Angel with WM6.5.3 from sun_dream. I can't connect to my home wifi or any wifi. I configured my router like this:
DHCP off
Wirless all
WPA-PSK
TKIP
64bit
I can't connect even to open wifi accespoints(hotspots).
I start the wirelss manager, tap on wirelss on and after that the wireless network appears. I click connect and nothing happens. In the network manager the connectios is available, i click connect, it says connecting and than again it says available.(any hot sopt or the home network, for that at home i entered the mac into the router and have written the ip an dns to the phone wirelss card)
Pleas help, it is a great phone i like it but this is the only problem i have.
PS: I even commanded an bluetooth gps unit. Is there any way to change the hardware and install an "g" wireless card?
Shouldn't DHCP on your WiFi router be set to 'On' and also for the phone as well. It will select an IP address for your device, which will then pick it up.
Otherwise you will have to allocate an IP address on the router, and then set the phone to the same address. If they don't match it won't work
It's a lot easier to let DHCP do all the donkey work. In most public areas DHCP is used as it is a 'Start it and forget it' system.
I set dhcp off because i assign an ip adress to every pc manualy and even have an mac filter where again the ip is written. I set the same ip on the phone as i had written it in the router config.
I can't acces even public wireless spots. I have the problem that it says the connection is available and then it says connecting and instead of connected it says avaialble.
Greetings. Sorry if my question maybe is a noob question, I don't know... I'm new of the forum...
I have a problem with my mobile phone. Recently I've bought a Motorola BackFlip, which mounts Android 1.5. I'm generally very satisfied with it, except for a very annoying thing: I can't connect to Internet via Wi-Fi.
My wireless network uses a computer connected to Internet by a USB modem; this PC, by a Wi-Fi adapter, is connected to a Wi-Fi Access Point. The other computers which use this connection use TCP/IP parameters such as:
IP Address: 192.168.0.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.0.1 (which is the PC connected by the USB modem)
DNS 1: 192.168.0.1
DNS 2: ---
These are the parameters that I use with one of my computers. I tried to insert them in the phone (using, as IP Address, 192.168.0.3, or 192.168.0.5, but with the same result), and although it appears "connected to Untitled (Untitled is the name of the AP)", I obtain a very strange result: I can go on Google, access the Android Market, do searches on Google and use any other Google service (such as Images), but when I try to go on any other site - even starting from a Google Search result -, such as Facebook or Wikipedia, or when I try to use applications such as eBuddy Messenger to access MSN, I can't. It passes some time and then it appears an error such as "unable to access the page".
How can I solve this very annoying problem? I must start by saying that I can't use the DHCP with my Access Point, because I can't set automatically 192.168.0.1 as default DNS and Gateway for any computer connected: my AP doesn't have this function.
Thanks in advance. And excuse me for my bad English, if it is so: I'm a 17-years-old Italian...

Where do I set the LAN (WiFi) Computer name in the Captivate. My router has functions that require either the host name or the IP address of the host. Using the host name for DHCP clients makes it a lot easier to configure some of these settings. The way I'm currently doing it by reserving an IP address for the MAC address of the Captivate WiFi NIC.
I can see where the host name can be changed for Bluetooth, but not for WiFi.
Good question, I dont know. So far from what I've seen when looking in my wifi router while connected, the phone doesnt have a "name". The name field is just blank, all it shows me is the mac address of the phone, and the IP address assigned to the phone.
I've looked under wifi settings and advanced wifi settings and dont see anything.
Hello all,
I've recently moved to an apartment complex with very good community wifi. However, upon connecting to the wifi, I am redirected to a splash page where I input my apartment username/password. This is okay for my PC and android devices but not so good for my PS3, dvd player, and Google Chromecast. I've been looking for a way to bypass this splash page. I have a Linksys E1500 with DD-WRT installed that I think will be helpful in this endeavor. I've found a couple of options online such as:
1) Connect to wifi on PC, then connect PC to router, and activate internet connection sharing -> I tried this but it wasn't working. I wasn't sure what mode my router should be in (AP, client, bridge?) or what local connection to set it to; The instructions weren't clear. Also, I would like to have my own private network fed from the public network.
2) Use router as repeater -> I tried this as well but it didn't really work. I could get Google home page to load but then everything else would say "SSL connection error". I wasn't sure what to do at that point. Instructions were:
"Hard reset the router, then configure the router to 192.168.2.1 and mask 255.255.255.0. Next go to status/wireless and find the AP you want...and click join. When the screen changes to the wireless page, change the dropdown to 'repeater', add virtual interface with new SSID, hit save. Go to Security tab and uncheck everything under Block WAN, save, apply changes. Power cycle then go to basic router setup, assign WAN port to switch, enter opendns for your static DNS as follows
static dns 1 208.67.222.222
static dns 2 208.67.220.220
Then in services tab for dnsmasq put this line:
strict-order
hit save, apply settings again."
3) Use router with DD-WRT to create a tunnel through openVPN -> I didn't know how to configure this and couldn't find instructions.
4) Buy a travel router -> I want to save money so I would like to avoid this option if I can... People claim it works for their hotel splash pages but I don't know if it'll work with mine.
I might have done something wrong during my setup procedures; I can't say for sure. I would gladly try again if someone wants to walk me through the process/troubleshoot. My overall goal is to get my own network set up from the community network without having to deal with the splash page. I hope this is possible. If anyone knows another method I could try, let me know.
My apt complex specs are:
SSID: apartmentcomplex
Security type: none
IPv4: 192.168.1.156
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1
DHCP Server: 192.168.1.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Splash page is: 192.168.1.1:8000
I appreciate the help.
How can I assign a static IP address to my phones hotspot?
I use the hotspot on my Samsung M31 to connect my laptop running Windows 10 to the internet.
I also have Oracle's Virtual Box VM running a few test websites on the laptop on Ubuntu Server 22.04, which need a static IP address to access.
A few days back when I ran ipconfig at the Windows command prompt, it showed my wireless IP address as 192.168.166.135. Today, it show as 192.168.35.125. Meaning, all my sites are now broken. Is there a way to stop the hotspot from changing IP addresses?
Can someone please help?
Thanks,

I don't know the answer to your question directly as your situation is more complicated than is mine but I will try to help in so much as you can at least check what your current settings are.
My setup is only similar to yours in that I have apps (such as vysor & scrcpy) on Windows which are expecting a static IP address from my phone. However, where my setup differs from yours is I'm not using my phone as a hotspot - the router is assigning the IP addresses.
However, maybe what I've learned by randomizing my MAC address on each connection can help you - where I say maybe - as I your situation is using the phone as a hotspot and mine is passively accepting the IP address handed to the phone by the router.
In Android 11, the phone's Wi-Fi radio MAC address can be randomized per SSID, in which case the "address reservation" feature of most routers (often incorrectly called "static" IP addresses) won't work as intended. Worse, in Android 12, in Developer options, you can set a switch to randomize the Wi-Fi radio MAC address of the phone on every connection, regardless of the SSID.
Hence, you have to set the "static" IP address request in the phone itself, so that the router will respect that request for a static IP address.
(As an extra complexity, my SSID broadcast is hidden for privacy reasons (not for security - but privacy), which complicates things only a tiny bit as you have to turn off auto-reconnect for privacy.)
See the images below where maybe (but maybe not!) this information will help you track down why in your (hotspot) case, this static IP address requrest isn't being honored in your hotstpot setup.

To assign a static IP address to your phone's hotspot:
Go to your phone's settings and find the hotspot or tethering settings.
Look for the option to set the IP address as "Static" or "Manual."
Enter the desired IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS server information.
Save the settings and restart the hotspot.
