[Q] Cant see my Thomson WiFi - HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys
My new HTC Gratia won't see my Thomson WiFi. I had the same issue with my HTC HD Mini too although at home it WILL see and connect to my Belkin N so I am unsure what the difference is between the two routers or what I could change here?
The Thomson that I cant see is a TWG870U

Are you using a custom ROM or the original ROM?

Hiya
Android 2.2
Build number is 2.37.405.10
Software is 2.37.405.10
Bseband is 47.54.35.20U_7.13.35.13
I have not changed the phone since i unwrapped it.

Do you have any other wifi capable devices which do find your Thomson router?

Yes
Hiya
Yes my XPS can see the wifi no issues.

Maybe its the channel set on the router for broadcasting. You can either change the channel on the router to something like 11 or so, or you could go in the advanced settings in wifi settings on your phone, then change to first option (Regulatory domain) to the channel set on your router. I'm not sure if the option is available on the stock Gratia rom. Good luck!

Tried that and still no joy, most annoying The option you mention is not on my phone by the way.

Hi Guys
I finally figured this out!
Went into router and changed it from 5ghz to 2.5ghz and et voila now my phone can see it
Hope that helps someone

Hero can't find Wifi

Hello
My Hero (VillainROM 5.2 Release Candidate) won't find my Home Wifi.
All other Wifi he findes without problems.
Did other yours have this problem? Is there a fix!
Seems to be just a problem with 2.1 ROM.
Is there a app for=?
Thanks
Verizon X
Same issue here. Can find 20+ wifi networks in my apartment, but mine is missing.
I suppose this doesn't have nothing to do with developing...Wrong section...Even if I'm not a moderator is pretty annoying to see "there's 1 new topic!" when this is not related with Hero development...
oh i had that issue back when i first got my hero.
Do you have your wifi locked?
Cuz to finally get my hero to find my wifi I had to turn off the security and once it found my wifi i put the security back on and edited the settings on my hero to reflect that.
After multiple flashing of different ROMS i have never had this issue again.
It has something to do with your wifi radio channel.
Try Wifi Analyzer, which will help you map all wifi's around you and help you choose an other radio channel for your router. Scan and choose a channel that's not used.

Thats exactly what i've done. I'm using channel 8, as the only one among the networks i can find using WifiAnalyzer, so im pretty sure that thats not the issue.
why check in the villain thread or ask there or check villain.co.uk

that's very odd, try switching to 1, 6 or 11 then. Choose the one with least AP's on.
Still the same issue i have an apple airport.
First with 1.5 he finds now with the new roms he wants finde my Wifi

Hero not recognizing wifi router

Hi all, this issue is driving me to distraction! I've changed my internet service provider and they have sent out a new router (d-link DSL- 2680) to use and since hooking everything up my Hero no longer recognizes the router i.e. I will do a wifi scan and it will display a list of all the other routers within range but my new router will not appear on the list?! So frustrating as I use my Hero as my main internet connected devise at home! Any suggestions or help would be welcome! Thankyou!

hi, did you fix this? i have the same problem
cheers
Maby your router isnt broadcasting it's SSID ??
Hello!
I'm new here as u can see. But It's funny that I got the same router DSL- 2680 with the same issue.. My Hero is running SHPONGLE v3.6 (what a great rom!) :good:
I have three laptops which are using this router with no problems at all. Hero just doesn't like the DSL?
Problem solved
What I did: Went to routers setup. --> Wi-Fi Protected setup --> tick off Enable
It's working great now. I hope this helps u a bit, stevieg73.

[Q] Filio can not connect to Internet through 3G Phones as WIFI AP

Hi, Dexter and all other fans,
I have installed a WIFI AP application on my 3G phone and I 'm trying to use Folio100 to connect to Internet through that. But I always can not find the WIFI hot-spot on the list. And then I checked Dexter's blog and found this problem has already been fixed in November. I have installed the latest ROM(1.3d) for my Folio and I have no idea why it still doesn't work. Anyone can give any comments?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
the reason must be your phone or the app on the phone. My Folio with FolioMod 1.3d is connecting WLAN very well to the "Android AP", provided from my Dell Streak (Froyo). Even with WPA2-PSK. No Problems at all.
Is the SSID (Broadcast) from your phone-hotspot visible?
regards
The wifi suplicant checker is active? (inside Folio widget menu).

Hi,
Thanks for your info, it was strange that it was not visible from Folio100 but it was visible from my laptop... That 's why I though it is the problem of Folio100.
Any other tricks when setting up WIFI AP from phone? BTW my phone is Nokia N900. The software is called 'Mobile Hotspot'.

it has been reported many times before. it has to do with the encryption of the wifi. avoid wep if u can, and place on either wpa /wpa2 encryption.

[Q] Elelinux-7.1-Hero-v3.6 + Wifi

Hi,
I'm posting my question here, since i can't reply on the original thread.
Currently i'm running Elelinux-7.1-Hero-v3.6 (custom) on my HTC Hero.
First off all, great job and thank you so much for keeping the hero alive!!
Tried a lot of different roms and this one leaves the others far behind!
I do however have a small problem with wifi. The device is not "finding" my home network. It does find other networks in the area, and i have been able to log in on a friends network. But it doesnt find this particular one. Other devices (laptops, desktops) are able to connect to it, so i dont think that the issue lies with the network.
Previously i was running elelinux FROYO_2.2.1_Final_Android_Stock (special edition) and did not have this problem.
Is there anyone with the same/a similar problem? Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this?
Dont know if it matters, its an assus N-router.
Thank you
Have you tried to click "Add a wifi network" in the (empty) list of available networks to define SSID and security setting manually?
Thanks for the reply.
Yes i tried that allready, it still tells me it is not in range.
Dont know if it helps the wireless is 2.4 and 5 GHz
Just put Elelinux-7.1-Hero-v3.6 custom v2 on my phone and still have the same problem?
Any guesses?
Check if u can detect other wifi networks wit ur fone if not try a different rom,since u want something as stable as else's try herodeck...
If it does detect other wifi networks,check if ur home wifi is hidden or reset it...

I have the same ROM and I don't have any problems with wi-fi. Maybe there is an issue with the 802.11n compatibility. Are you able to force the AP into b/g mode?
Same Problem
i had the same problem so adjusted router to use B/G mode only and works fine now
maybe your WiFi is on one of the odd japanes channels 52 or so, make sure your choose something between channel1 and 11 in the 2,4Ghz Band
Thank you for all the replies!!
It got fixed!!
Didnt have to change from N to b/g
But tried Taknil's solution and changed channel from auto to somewhere between 1 and 11 in the 2.4 Ghz band (router went up to 13)
Works like a charm!!
Thank you all!
It happened to me to.
I've to give up the mod for now.

[Q] Home wifi not found

Hi
to begin I want to applogize if this question/problem has been asaked earlier but I gave up searching the forum or the internet.
I tried diffrent roms (GalaxyTask, Overcome, Task 650 and CM9) on my p7510 but It does not find my home wifi after flashing. However, when I use Stock or CM9 it recognizes my home wifi.
Has anyone a fix for that problem?
Can you give a little more information? What type of router (make + model)? are you using 2.4ghz or 5? wifi g or n?

I have a D-link 635 using wifi n.
The strange thing is that the tab finds my home network under the Cyanogenmod9 rom and stock rom but not under the Overcome, starburst or galaxy tab rom. This makes me think that it is not a router problem. I could be wrong tough.
I tried to set up the wifi manually but it did not work. I also tried to delete it from auto recognition before flashing a new rom. Still it finds many other wifi networks but not my home network.
Yeah, that's pretty weird. I'd post your question in task's thread; he's pretty good about figuring this stuff out. Also, I have to point this out: "CM9" is not available yet; what you have is the CM9 preview. Kind of has to be said so as not to confuse anyone with the real thing...
Try switching from wifi n to b or g (in your router configuration). Might bring you closer to a solution.
Also, you could try different channels to sort things out.
Wifi-Analyzer is a good app to analyse and fix Wifi Problems

I'm having wifi problems with my tab as well.
It worked fine with the stock rom. After I flashed task rom 10 the wifi range got realy bad. I mean bad like it only got 4 bars when standing right next to the router. In the next room, separated by a wall, it would got nothing. I did not change a thing in the router for months.
I thought it might be something related to HC 3.2 so I flashed the In Paris rom and the problem was gone. I might try another HC 3.2 rom to see if what happens but right now I'm probably going to wait for CM9 anyway.
btw my router is a asus rt-n56u

I´m currently on Overcome 2.1.1 (for 7500 3G Tab) and have no issue´s at all.
I can fully recommend it as a 3.2 ROM
Well my problem is that it does not find my home network at all. No matter which rom I flash except for the CM9 preview. I get a whole lot of other wifi networks but not mine. This makes me think that it is something that the rom does rather my router.
Change your router's channel plz.
Every router have 1-13 channels. It will be set to auto by default. Change it from 1-13, and you can find one to use.

The last 2 channels of the router do not show up on my rooted galaxy 10.1, I had to change the router channel because of this.
