WiFi errors on Elephone p8000. WiFi Connections stops although connected - Elephone P8000

If I Connect to my Router behind another Router.( Needed to be done because of reason's)
I can only connect to the internet for approximately 3 seconds. It starts loading shows me a page and stops.
Nothing works after this. Only disconnect reconnect. Static IP , disabling ipv6. Nothing seems to help.
Even creating a DMZ settings for this device in the router did not work.
It is a D-Link dir 615. And old beast and only here to bring my people some wifi. And even this one is behind an old Belkin from 200x
So I would love to fix this. Also even behind a openwrt router (behind a fritzbox) it seems not to work.
Ping still works. But websites don't load. Apps don't download. Etc....

XDA IIs Wifi and lockups

Does anyone have a problem with their wifi locking up their xda iis? I have bought a linksys router and am getting frequent lockups when using wifi. I am using the shipped O2 rom, thanks
I have no problem at all with Netgear router. Try changing the connection speed setting in the router to the "b" mode only. Hopefully this can solve your problem.
No problems here either I'm afraid. I'm using a Draytek Vigor 2600VG at home and at work there are two of us with XDA IIs using a Linksys BEFDSR41W wireless router and no problems there either.
Sorry! :-(
Try a hard reset (gulp!) and see if you still have problems (Without anything else installed that might be inteferring) otherwise might be a faulty unit perhaps.

I second what xanth said, I had the problem where wifi would not turn on, so I hard reset and installed each software back individually the problem was Calligrapher 7.3 did not like being in Storage or Storage Card only in Main memory (go figure)

I use the XDA IIs on a variety of wireless networks and experience problems with an alarming regularity. The most annoying is the fact that the top bar seems to loose functionality, when using wireless!!
I will actually add that I do seem to have problem with the "range" of WiFi.
I need to do more testing, but it doesn't seem to be more than 20m or so before have communication issues/timing out :-( Will have to find out what our walls are made of!!!
I have problems connecting sometimes. I regularly use three routers, Draytek, Buffalo and Belkin. The only time that it locks up is when using skype. The skype problem is a known issue with no cure.

I am having a problem where my Siemens SX66 will loose connection to my Microsoft MN700 wireless AP on occasion. -It simply appears as if the Wifi radio shuts itself off.
Weird.....
Wifi has never worked for me. It simply doesn't work in the way nature intended.
The main problem (as far as I can tell) seems to be that it cannot get DNS or IP configuration settings from my router (Belkin 7630) automatically.
It can connect to my wireless network without any hassle, but that's about it. If I enter DNS and IP settings manually it works fine. But this is unworkable if you want to connect to another wireless network.
If I can't sort this out by next week I'm going to sell the unit on eBay. It's been nothing but a pain since I mistakenly bought it in December.
Wifi is a nightmare on this device! I'm going back to Nokia.
I am going to do a hard reset and test to see if i still get any freezes. Anyone know of any software i can use to backup my text messages?

Hi guys,
Haven't had too many issues with WiFi over here - standard O2 Asia ROM (with the BT 3500 update).
I'm running a Netgear WG602 @ home with 64bit WEP and a Dlink AP2100 @ work with WPA-PSK. No connectivity problems at either location, both DHCP. It does however take a few minutes to connect, but this is on the odd occasion.
The only frustrating thing with the WiFi is that I have to soft-reset often to turn Wi-Fi on - any ideas? Hopefully O2 will fix this in the next ROM. Other than that, I've had the Nokia 9500, P900/800 and this is by far the best device for the power user.
Just me 2c!
Cheers

Wifi is on all the time on my device, sometimes when I switch the device on while within range of an AP it does not connect. Often switching wifi off and then onn again causes it to connect. If this does not work then I can often go into the network dialogue section, and see the network marked as 'availble' but not connected (why it sometimes does not auto connect I dont know). Tapping connect usually cures. If that does not work then I too need to soft reset.
I hope like you that they fix this cause its damned anoying. I will be interested to see what the Benq P50 is like when its released. I shall get one from expansys to test and ship it back within the 7 days.

As for those having problems with specific access points. It is not nessesarily the fault of the blue angel. It seems to me that none of the manufacturers of wireless kit understand the term 'standard' they all seem to have their own take on it, which is why kit from different manufacturers refuses to talk to each other. I am of the opinion that they do it in purpose to lock you into using their client cards with their AP's !!
Try it with some non Belkin kit and see what happens.
Nigel
Well i tried a hard reset and didnt install any apps and tried connecting to wifi again and still got a lockup and loss of connectivity. Im going to swap the router for another make and see what happens
Swapped my linksys router for a D-Link and so far no problems after 2 days. so looks like my problem was my router.

XDA IIi and wifi
I just bought one of these and can't get it connected. I have a netgear wg602 access point. When I finally figured out how to set the IP manually (the 02 xda tech support said it can't be done - maybe they're right ;-)
I now have it saying it's connected, with right IP address. My DNS and gateway are set up for the wireless adapter in network adapters. The signal is average. The XDA says wifi is connected. The access point even says it's authenticated and associated - same as my other stations.
Only problem is, internet explorer doesn't find any web pages - says "The page you are looking for cannot be found" (works fine through GPRS)
Also, terminal services times out trying to connect to an internal IP address (to eliminate DNS as a problem)
So, anyone know how I troubleshoot network problems - it looks like a TCP/IP issue? Can't find ping or arp etc. I've also tried an IP address that I know works on the network.
thanks for any help

Hi
For ping, ipconfig and stuff, head to http://www.cam.com/windowsce.html
I have had multiple issues trying to get wifi working reliably. It still fails now, but there are a few tricks to get it working again. Most of my wifi issues have been due to regular use of three AP's [email protected] and [email protected] along with GPRS and VPN.
To start with I suggest setting all the ****e in connections (internet and home network to 'My ISP' then goto your wifi setup, network adapters, and tell it that the wireless card connects to the internet. Now, tap ok, and goto tools, network cards, tap the active connection (it must already be connected) and ensure that its set to internet.
Next soft reset the thing, and wait for it to connect to yr wifi. Now, use the ipconfig tool and ping tool from the above site to check that all is OK. Check that its got the default gateway right and a sensible LAN IP.
I have found on occasion that I can be connected via wifi, but that the device is still trying to talk using an old IP allocated by gprs which means nothing to my lan! IPconfig will show if all is OK.
Whoever wrote the whole of the networking system (and its terrible gui's) on windows mobile wants shooting. I usually have 2 VPN profiles setup under my work network. If I leave it set to that, and use wifi from my lan to connect to the internet all is fine. However if I try and access a local server, the damned thing starts trying to connect a vpn (it aint inteligent enough to work out that the IP I asked it to connect to is local).
I have been trying to find a setting for all this networking rubbish that allows me to do *everything* without reconfiguring each time - to no avail.
Another thing to note is that you cant send/receive MMS messages while wifi is connected (more stupidity), it tries to connect to the MMS server using the wifi connection, and the telco blocks it cause it wants to charge you for sending MMS over GPRS. Only solution is to disconnect wifi, send MMS then reconnect wifi!!!

No problems with WiFi for me
Hmm I'm using an O2 Asia Rom as well.. and my wifi manager seems to automatically create "settings" for each AP it detects and I seem to have no problems connecting at all... been using WiFi around my house since the first day i got it..
i am using a Linksys Wireless 802.11b router..
btw I am new here.. finally able to register!
How's everybody doing?
Cannot turn off IEEE 802.1x
Has anyone had problems unchecking the 'IEEE 802.1x netwrok access control' checkbox???
I uncheck it, but then when I go back to the screen (click on the connection | then select 802.1x tab at the bottom) it has checked itself again!
The XDA IIs does not save the setting - it just keeps re checking itself 02 help have been no use - they sent me an instruction manual and it even says in one of the step 'uncheck IEEE check box'
Im am using a netgear wirelesss router and have also tried on a d-link
Sugestions - is anyone else having this problem??

Artemis WiFi and Belkin N1 Router

@ all,
it might sound a bit surprising, but I dont get my new artemis ( i now own one with wifi !, my hero didnt!),
working with the wireless of my belkin n1 router!
everytime i enter the mac adress into the router, wlan stops alltogether! ( do i need to enter the mac adress?)
entering the normal wpa-psk passwords into wm6.1 vanilla or b&b5, the connection constantly changes between available, but not connecting, and unavailable... even when sitting right next to the router!
any ideas?
help highly appreciated!
greetz
thormdac
news:
got it working for now-- changed wlan channel in rpouter to channel11, which is preset in wm6.1!
is that how its done?
Update:
most of the times the router just kills the wlan function all in all once i try to connect with the artemis!
Need to reboot router to get it running again!
Where am i going wrong?
p.s. no, i aint a novice
I've got the same roblem mate. Not got a clue what to do ?
Had the same issue with a Belkin N router yesterday. Solution I dumped it went down to Maplins and got a Netgear. Plugin and I was away.
Had flashed the rom serveral times (Win 5, 6, 6.1 some of the cooked roms) nothing worked was thinking it was a hardware failure.
Dont' appear to matter how you set the belkin nothing works.
Thou oddly my Exec connects with it just fine.

Gee, that would for sure make me one unhappy pal!
Anybody around here has another idea!
Possibly some tips on "Must does" ! for connecting via wifi with artemis! Whats with the mac address-thing?!!!
Greetz
To be honest, I've looked at dozens of sites searching for a solution to this issue. Everything from flashing the ROM (Device and router), enter MAC on the router, set a IP address, changing channels, security settings and nothing appear to work with the Belkin N family.
My experience with Belkin has not been good (Tech support has always been first class).
The first router (Cheap 54g) would run for 2 hours then lockup, requiring a reset of both the router and cable modem). Replaced by Belkin after several days talking to tech support.
The second router (Same 54g unit, different Version number) Ran fine until you moved data about, anything downloading above 150k locked the router. Wired connections could do 300k then lock up. Replaced by Belkin.
The third unit (Upgraded to a 2 stick version for free) DOA. Replaced by Belkin
The forth unit (Same 2 stick version) worked data transfers good but would not allow wifi connections other than WEP 64. Firmware update would then WEP 128. Replaced by Belkin.
The Fifth unit (Same 2 stick version, different version) Wifi worked with all settings. However with wifi on all wired connections ran like a 56k modem. Replaced by Belkin.
The sixth unit (Upgraded to the N) Worked fine. Wired connections fine, wifi was a bit hit or miss, two Toshiba laptops connected fine, the Dell laptop never connected. Belkins own N usb dongle also never connected.
My Orbit never connected to any of the Belkins, the Exec did with some and others not.
This issue is not limited to Belkin, if you look about, other makers routers also appear to have this issue.
The cheap Netgear (£35) works just fine for me. Took 5 minutes to setup. Everything in the house connects. I`m happy after 7 months of Belkin issues.
uiuiui,
what a story!
just so we dont get us wrong here: had my n1 now for about 6months, and its running just fine with all my notebooks! - just since trying to connect with my artemis i am running into probs!
A theory of this mornings trials:
any way of changing the preconfigured broadcast channel 11 within the artemis? --- seems to me the channelchanging is causing the hangups!
will try setting the router to channel 11 and see what happens!
greetz
Ive set channel to 6 in the N router, the Art/Orbit will find it and go though the motions of connecting and make it unavailable (our problem with N routers). The Network setting will show its on ch6 (if you can there before it becomes unavailable). Then goes to ch11.
I think the Art/Orbit just runs in sequence though the channels, if it gets a lock it uses that channel. If not it moves on, I think we just see ch11 because its the last ch available in the scan.
Have just played with the Netgear channels and the Art/Orbit connects with every channel, the Network setting page shows the correct channel that the routers broadcasting.
So it don't appear that the channel is hard coded to the Art/Orbit.
Ok stumbled across this thread a little too late. Our Linksys wrt54g was not able to handle the kind of data we were transferring and moved to a Belkin_N1 router, I have an HTC Wizard but same symptoms, if I try to connect to Belkin I can not connect to anything WIFI before a soft-reset, I get prompted for key fine once and during connection something messes up the wifi radio, I am not sure if its a software or hardware issue but got the same issue with an SMC router, while my D-Link at home is working fine. I wasted so much time flashing ROMs and what not. Thanks for everyone who has put info here, somebody can read here and save the pain of hitting the wall with frustration.

[Q] Multiple HD7s on Wifi

Does anyone have multiple HD7s on the same wifi network? We have three devices and they all connect perfectly by themselves as long as no other one is connected. But they only sporadically connect, if at all, when one device has connected and the other tries to hop on. If you turn the connected device off, the other one trying to connect connects immediately.
The router is a Netgear 108g WGT624. Changing the router settings make no apparent difference. It doesn't matter if it's WEP, WPA, no security, no MAC address filtering, changing the password, nothing at all. The only contingency is whether or not another HD7 is connected.
Might it have anything to do with how close the MAC addresses are? All three devices have identical MAC addresses through the first 6 numbers.
If anyone has a multiple HD7s working on the same network, please post your wireless setup.
that could possibly be the issue (having close mac addresses). but if they're all unique i don't see how this should be an issue. have you tried using the HD7s on a different router (not made by netgear)? if not, i'd suggest that to see if it's your router or something else. let us know how it goes...
Unplug the router for 15-30 seconds.

if you send me your hd7's I'll be happy to test for you!!!
My household has two WP7 devices and I don't have any WiFi issues. They both sync thru WiFi as well.
My WiFi is handled by an Apple Airport Extreme. Routing is done in the basement by a Linksys router.
I've not noticed any issues with having our 2 connected to the network at home, then again, I've not checked they're both connected at the same time.
I know that I used to have issues where my TP2 and my wife's Hero couldn't connect at the same time which was mighty strange. Sounds like this could be a similar issue you're having, sadly I can't offer an explanation of why it happens though
I'm not sure what the problem was exactly but getting a new wireless router solved the issue, all 3 HD7s connect great now
The new router is a Netgear WNDR3400-100NAS.
Have 2 hd7 and 1 will connect without problems, the other one needs wifi turned off and then back on before it will connect,
Belkin router, and have played with all the settings on the router.
That sounds like the same thing that I had. A new router was the only solution I could find: $80 at Best Buy.
Unplug the router for 15-30 seconds. If that doesn't work see if there is a new firmware update for your router. If that fails you need a new one.

[Q] Wi Fi Connectivity

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?

Wifi loosing connectivity (H815)

This has been plaguing me for a while and it's making me hate this phone. I've also seen this issue pop around the internet so it's not just me.
What happens is the wifi stays connected to the router but has no connectivity (i've tried pinging the gateway when it happens, the connection is dead although it is listed in the router as connected). And it happens totally random, sometimes it works entire day, sometimes it happens every hour or worse. This seems to have gotten worse with MM. I used to be able to fix it with turning wifi off/on but now even reboot wont help (it connects to the router but immediately says no internet on wifi), i have to reset wifi on the router for it to start working. I have 2 other androids (kitkat, lolipop), an iphone 5, tablet with a hybrid OS, 2 laptops and a desktop on the wifi working without issues so that kinda rules out the router as the sole culprit (it's a Technicolor crap from my ISP that i can't change, i can only buy an additional AP but i have no idea it will help). Ofc, when the connectivity is lost, the phone is still connected to the wifi, hence doesn't switch to network and i stop receiving notifications, which is driving me insane (also a work phone).
I recently installed an app ("wifi connection manager", the app itself is fairly useless, half the stuff doesn't really work that well, and all the options are really things you can do manually) that has a background service that i thought would keep the connection alive. It worked for about a week and then all of a sudden it stopped. I've tries everything else, short of reflashing the phone.
So after ****ing around for the 1000th time, trying to figure it out i realized that turning the WMM off (router QoS) stops the connectivity issues. Problem with this solution is that my download rate over the wifi drops by half immediately (from 50mbit to 25) and after a while all the wifi connections start to deteriorate to the point where it becomes painfully slow. What's more puzzling however is that when i do turn it off, the G4 connects via 802.11g (and for some reason this makes the connection not lose connectivity). Other devices connect via 802.11n whether WMM is off or on (except the desktop, which has an old wifi card, also on 11g).
Sorry for the wall of text. This and the anticipation of a bootloop is making me seriously regret my purchase.
So my two questions are:
1. Is there a way for me to force the G4 to connect via 802.11g even when WMM is On ? It obviously chooses how to connect on it's own.
2. Given the history of events, is there a network guy somewhere here that could identify wth is going on ?
Thanks a lot for those that made it this far
