I have an Xperia Play. It is a UK model that has been unlocked. It is a dev model.
I am having problems connecting to WiFi. My brother (who gave it to me) says it was connecting in the UK. He bought over two of these phones niether of them will connect.
It wont list the available networks, thought it does scan. The mobile network/ internet is working fine.
Am I missing something?

Hey guys, I've activated the Froyo Sense wifi hotspot feature, and while my XP laptop can easily see the network and connect, it can't actually receive any data. I've checked the HSPDA on the phone and it's fine; but trying to view a website on my laptop in Firefox when connected just does work, it just keeps saying 'looking for', e.g. 'looking for google.co.uk'. I'm on T-mobile UK in case that's relevant.
Does anyone else have any issues?
Make sure that you have DHCP enabled and also automatic DNS detection. For me (Vista laptop, phone on Vodafone NL) it works fine.
And it may also be that T-Mob is somehow detecting what you are trying & then blocking it...
In the end I ran Windowx Xp network diag repair and that finally seemed to fix it. Weird, never had any issues with any other hotspots I've tried using! Very strange, although I did notice the IP address Froyo gave my laptop was exactly the same that my normal router serves up, maybe this was the issue and Windows just got a bit confused, poor thing...
Hi all,
I have an unlimited mobile internet data plan for my mobile phone. I am at vodafone.
So in order to use mobile phones internet on my android tablet,
i turn on my wildfires mobile portable hotspot, and succesfully connect my laptop to it through wifi. So the laptop gets internet from my mobile phone ...
But when i run internet explorer at tablet (any site), it keeps redirecting me to vodafone's prepaid mobile internet card site!!
I can't browse at all.
I test the same thing with an xperia ray (android v4) with the same carrier and worked just fine.
i talked to vadafone customer support and they couldnt help at all. (I believe that option is locked somehow by vodafone )
After that i succesfully rooted my phone, but the problem is still here..
i don't know what to do next.
I dont want to switch to custom rom yet because i read that there are lot of bugs.
Any ideas??
plz help!!

Hi,
I recently bought a Samsung A50, which I tried to connect to my companies WiFi.
WiFi-Auth uses EAP-TLS, so it's basically WPA2 Enterprise.
I imported the companies CA- and my User-Certificate (both appear in "User-Certificates").
But when I try to connect to the SSID I can only choose the CA-Certificate (BOTH certificates appear in the dialoguebox!).
But the usercertificate-field remains empty, I got no choices to make there...
It works just fine using my Samsung A5 or an iPhone 8 by using the exact same certificates and importing them the same way...
I already installed the newest firmware.
What can I do to solve the problem?
Seems strange to me, this usually works even with very old WiFi-equipment.
No ideas?
Nobody having the same issue?

I already posted on first section regarding Wi Fi signal. Its weak and also didnt recognize many of wifi networks. I commpared with the other models
and the results are that Samsung A50 showed same wifi networks as Nokia with Symbian OS from 2010....disapointed....very...

Greetings all.
My A5(2017) has decided it will not connect to the internet via WiFi. It will still happily make calls, receive call and send texts. The phone does find my wifi service under Connections.
I am on a 4G Mobile service using an Optus Pocket WiFi.
Three other mobile phones (2 iPhones and an Optus X Smart phone all connect. I can also connect my desktop pc, a Macbook Air, an ASUS laptop and a Samsung Tab A tablet connect without any problems.
Visited a Samsung store this morning and they also could not connect the phone - although it did connect through the store WiFi system.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
BTW, the phone was fully updated at the Samsung store,
Thanks in advance,
Frank
