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:

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?
I have a Samsung Duos in Brazil. My wireless was working fine at my home, til suddenly it would only connect to Google on wireless. Some websites would appear using data connection, but wireless, only Google searches. Clicking on a link would bring up a "could not locate remote server" page. I've reset the router and modem, even reset my phone to original settings, same problem. My phone shows that I'm connected to the Internet too. I've tried other hot spots and they work fine, so it doesn't seem to be a phone setting. I haven't changed any settings in the router or modem.
I have a LG G4 (LG-HG11) running Android 6.0 and I have been getting “Internet Not Available” error message everything I connect to my Wifi at home, as well as the Wifi at my parents place. Both Wifis has WPA2 PSK security password settings. I am able to connect to WiFi networks (Local College, MTA subway stations, Library, Work) that requires a two tier login i.e. connect to the wifi, then log in using the web browser. The only exception has been an apple wifi at my in laws - I was able to connect there. The Wifi works in Safe Mode.
Here are the things I’ve tried to no avail:
Forget the network
Turn off the phone and reset the phone
Tried 3 different routers (I even brought a new one)
Used a different cable modem
Unplugged/restart the router
Hard reset the router
Unplugged/restart the modem
I’ve factory reset the phone which seems to do the trick but the same issue has come back three times now. All of the apps I have installed appear to be legitimate apps and all of the other devices I have at home (laptops, tablets (android and apple) as well as Iphones all connect to the network just fine.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
Hey I got some problems with the WiFi connection, it connects but it says internet not available, although the wifi network is working in other devices. I tried doing a full wipe or flashing a kdz, but still have the same problem. Have u got any ideas to resolve this? Thanks
I'm having the same problem. I don't know if it's like this for the OP, but the hardware itself seems to work. It detects connections just fine, I can install wifi analyzer and it displays and measures all nearby connections no problem. However, when I try to connect to wifi, it says "saved. secured." It won't tether either. I've tried with multiple modems and routers, it just won't connect.
Hi, I've tried all the troubleshooting steps on how to fix wifi connection but it seems there's no luck.
I've already change the firmware but still no connection.
The problem is, I can connect to a wifi but it has no connection. It will only "saved,secured" and that's all.
Anyone can help?
Same issue here.
I'm starting to think that the eletronics trash can is the solution...
My Samsung Galaxy T-520 detects all Wi-Fi networks, but it doesn't connect to any. The status shows "saved, secured", but it fails to connect. I tried everything, switching on/off passpoints, bluetooth and whatever, even factory resets (twice). I also tried to start the device without the Google account, skipping everything. I also tried a cell phone access point, it's all useless. All my other devices work, so it's not the router. Maybe it's a hardware problem. It suddenly stopped working
