Hi everybody..
After todays android 2.2 update on my HTC Desire i ran into a problem with my wireless on the phone.
So the problem is.
The phone wont connect to my wireless network at home. I went to a friends house and tried to connect to his wireless network and connected without a problem.
When i go to the settings to the wireless connection i can se the following:
Scanning..
Connecting..
Obtaining IP adress from (wireless network name)..
Disconnected..
.. and then its start all over again.
So before i posted here i tried some things I thought would might help:
I restarted the Phone
I resterted my whole network system at home.
I set the phone back to manufactory settings.
I set my Router back to maufactory settings.
and after all this, it still doesnt work.
I went to a friend, to test if i could connect to his wireless network and i could.
The problem first started after the update as i already told you. I downloaded the update with from my wireless on my phone.
So i guess is something with my router or something? I have a Linksys WRT300N Wireless-n version 2.0 router.
Thanks in advance

do you have security enabled on your wireless access point (routers) ? , if yes try to disable it and recheck if you can connect with your phone.
I am not sure if it's related to Froyo I had the same problem with 2.1

Yes i do have security enabled. and i already have tried disable the password from the acces point. Ill try to recheck it all again, but the problem started after the 2.2 update, and the wierd thing is im able to connect to other wireless networks. Its only my wireless network at home, im not able to connect to.
What did you do to solve the problem?
and thank you for the answer, i apreciate it.

@all,
just havin sold my iphone i am missing synching my mails with my pda over wireless, since my belkin n1 wireless router simply doesnt allow my artemis to connect
so, mind you telling me how you connect successfully?!
- which hardware / wlan access do you use?
greetz
Any wireless router will help you connect with artemis. I have used Dlink, netgear and also linksys routers to connect.
TO connect sucessfully, you need to activate wireless on the router. Then enable wireless in your arte using the comm manager. Once the wireless is activitated, try searching for networks.

thanx,
but i really aint a novice!
I have tried the belkin n1 now for time and time again...it searches, finds the network, asks for the pin...and returns wireless as unavailable again...
this repeats regardless of security settings or anything else i tried
i remember there having been a lengthy discussion on this...just cant find it..
so back to my question:
which hardware does work?
ideally quote your settings as well, please
greetz
have you checked that both the router and artemis are using the same authentication type? WPA/WEP etc
it might be worth checking that your router isnt set to N-Only for connection speed too....cant remember what speeds the artemis supports but B or G are most likely and maybe your router would reject the connection if it's the wrong type...IIRC the 'N' spec is still in-progress so not widely supported yet
Try a D Link DIR-655

You are not alone!!! I bought a Belkin N1 Vision in December to replace an ageing 3Com router and no matter what I tried I couldn't get my artemis to work. Even without any security. Finally sent the Belkin back and got a D-Link DIR-655. It works like a dream. Connected with no problems at all.
Darn, that confirms what i thought for quite some time - anybody intrested in owning an N1Belkin!
Just doublechecked with an old netgear--and it connects right away...
thanx for ur help!
now could we widen the length of compatible routers, pls.?!
greetz
I use a sitecom 300N router and my artemis connects with it without any problem.

Netgear
Hi, I use a Netgear WNR834B. No problems using WiFi with Artemis.
Setup; WiFi up to 270 MbPs, region Europe, channel 6 broadcasting and the strongest encryption for security.
With all of the ROMs i have used, there were no WiFi issues.
Regards
This may be stating the obvious, and I apologize if it sounds stupid, but has anyone checked for the "wireless mode" on the router ?
Just ensure the router is on "mixed mode", i.e. it supports b/g/n connections...
Hope this helps...
hmm I also have problems with SMC (SMCWBR14S-N2), mixed mode, but not connect with Artemis.. my notebook connect without any problems.
had the same problem with n1. tried and tried last night with luck, removed all settings on artemis dissapointed. gave it another go this evening after booting system up and connected okay after putting in password.
just double check all the router wireless settings and any security settings you have. save any changes and restart the router.
hope this helps

Well done getting it to work. I thought I tried everything! Perhaps it was the restart that did it. Too late for me to confirm. My Belkin went back to be replaced with the DLink 655. Good router but does slow down with time and needs a reboot every now and then.
I got the htc wifi router working and surfed for a few minutes. I logged out of my PC and back in and the internet wouldnt work on my PC or my phone. I rebooted my phone and still the same problem. Has anyone else run across this problem? How do I fix it/troubleshoot it? 3G is showing it is connected
Has anyone else had this problem? I had to finally do a hard reset/wipe to get things working again.
There's another similar report here, maybe in the cdma area.
I'm not clear on your issue. Is this wmwifi not working after a reboot or Activesync not recognizing after the reboot?
And are you using the latest wmwifi?
edit: I'm adding that I downloaded the latest wmwifirouter last friday 18sep09, and I thought it was a vpn/wifi issue on my laptop. My TP2 did not recognize under activesync after I did a few things, but WM did work the one time I tested it.
I am not using wmwifi. I am using HTC CM Internet Sharing:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4170499#post4170499
I figured it was put out by HTC (and free) so it should work right?
It created the wifi access point fine, and I was able to surf with my laptop at good speeds. I left and came back and the internet would no longer connect (laptop or phone).
I tried everything from soft rebooting, to removing the application, to calling *228 (reset the phone), and even manually setting up the verizon data settings. Nothing worked. I just could not establish a data connection.
Finally I gave up and did a hard reboot and restore and it finally worked.
I really need a reliable way of setting up a wifi access point but dont want to risk this fiasco again.
Yeah, I mis-read your first post, sorry!
For me it was as simple as starting the wifi router program and then cleanly stopping it. If forced to quit, you will have no network access. It's happened a couple times for me.

Hi there, I had used htc wifi router a while back and hadnt tried connecting the phone to the local wifi network since. After reading your post, I thought I'd check and yes I was getting the same problem, i.e. it wouldn't connect to my home wifi network.
I found the fix to be as follows:
1) Go into comms manager, turn WiFi on
2) Under settings go to wireless LAN
3) In the main tab you will that the SSID is set to "Mobile router", select change network button underneath.
4) Now you should see the SSID of your network, dont select anything, just press o.k at the top and hey presto it will connect.
Let us know if this worked.

Thanks. I couldnt connect to the internet through 3G either though, even though the 3G icon was showing in my status bar.

Ah, that's probably for some other reason, no issues with 3G connection for me.
Same problem for me. I connect to the mobile through wifi (Adhoc connection) and the mobile is connected in 3G but I can't surf internet from my laptop.
Enable DHCP
Hi all
Sometimes after using this software you need to renable DHCP in the connections settings. This can be done via:
Start>Settings>Connections>WiFi>Wireless Networks>Network Adaptors>NE2000 Compatible Ethernet Adaptor and then select Use server-assigned IP address.

hi i installed e htc wifirouter but it is using my mms setting instead of my phone internet setting. any1 can help?
My vzw was ok before today on my network via wifi and now it only connects if there are no cables connected to my dlink dir-655 router. It says it can't connect try another access point. Never had an issue before. I have reset to factory defaults both router and phone more then once and still not working. If I turn on router with no cables connected to it then the tp2 connects fine. This meaning no LAN cable and no modem connected either. No security enabled for wifi either in the router. I have enabled security on router and phone says incorrect pass code which is incorrect as I am entering the correct password. Everything else on my network both wired and wifi work fine. Only the tp2 has a problem.
I am running default rom too. It is unlocked though and I've never put a rom or anything on the phone.
I don't have a clue what is wrong. I will be so grateful for any help.
Thanks so much.
Anyone???????????
Hey all,
I searched but couldnt find the same issue for the touch pro 2/ tilt 2, not sure if anyone has any ideas.
So every time I try to connect to ANY wifi, my phone goes through the attempting connect phase and drops the connection then says the connection is unavailable, refreshs the networks and shows the same connection is available.
Does anyone on have any ideas?
Thanks,
JC
on your browser on your computer, enter your ip address and then log in as admin and turn of G in your connection
Hey, yeah no sure if its a setting on the router as i can't connect to other routers. and i was able to connect before.
Either way what do u mean by turn off G, what is G?

I really dont know much, but that was the problem on my device, when it was stock it worked well but then i put custom roms, it wouldnt connect so i was told to turn of G in the router setting and it worked, can you access as admin on the router?
go to advance settings and switch it from work to internet
Ok i figured it out...very funny one, kinda, I have network filter set on the router and mistyped the mac address of the tilt, fixed the address and it worked fine
Thanks guys
lol user error
Hello so on my s3 whenever i connect to my home WiFi it says authentication error. I know its not the router because it works great on my tv laptop and xbox. Also its not the phone because i can connect to public hotspots and my moms hotspot. If you know how to fix this problem and thanks in advance.
Maybe there's a certain limit to how many devices can connect to the router? Go into your router settings and check, if not go to your phone and try unchecking automatically connect to wifi then rebooting your phone. See if that helps!
