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?
Hi! recently my phone won't open google, facebook and a few other sites if I'm connected to wifi, but the other sites open without any problem. And if I restart my phone, and I use 3g only, it opens anything just fine.
Router: linksys wrt160nl (DD-WRT r19342)
settings: bgn enabled, wpa2, tkip+aes
My phone has the latest rom (xxlm9), tried to reflash, reset everything, but nothing worked. Oh and on pc these sites over wifi opens without problem.
Any ideas?
Hi all,
Lost info for my original account, so I made a new one.
Straight out of the box my HTC One has not been able to connect to my router. It gives me the message that it's avoiding a poor internet connection although under the connections it says the signal strength is excellent. My laptop connects just fine. My Razr HD connects just fine, but interestingly my wife's galaxy S3 will not connect either. It gives her the same message.
I've tried changing the bandwidth from auto to 2.4 to 5. I've tried forgetting the network. I've tried static internet connection with IP address 192.168.0.15 and also 10.0.0.11 I enabled the DLNA, there is no useable option to clear cache or clear data and last of all I did a factory reset.
None of these worked. DLNA and the static internet connection have allowed me to connect, but it's not really connected. I'm not sure what's happening. It says connected with excellent signal strength, but nothing connects. No internet, no netflix, no nothing.
I think it might be something to do with the router itself, but I don't think I'll be able to get any information from netgear's people. It's not broken (other devices connect just fine) but these newer smartphones seem to have a problem with it.
Neatgear N300. Also, I tried WPS connection as well. No Dice.
Thanks
Update-I've found a -similar- issue in this forum regarding specific bandwidth connectivity issues for dual band routers. One of the suggestions was to update the firmware. I haven't been able to do this successfully. Still trying.
Update 2-Tried to connect to Safeway WiFi today. No luck. It goes to the sign in page and it's just blank. At home it says the page is unavailable. At safeway it's just blank...
*bump* No help at all?

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!
Somehow my phone won't find my home wifi anymore.
I tried turning off and on again both, phone and router. My friend has an S4 Mini, too, and hers connects without any problem. When I go to wifi settings, my home wifi appears in the networks list, but it is marked as "not in range". Occasionally it finds the wifi and connects to it, but only for a few seconds.
I already tried the *#0011# thing (turning off power save mode), but still got connection issues.
