Can't get WIFI to enable

I inherited a Sprint Treo Pro from my daughter-in-law... I cant seem to get the wifi to enable. I go to the com manager and click the turn on button, the little wheel turns for a little while then back to the screen without wifi on...
If I go to the menu/settings/wireless lan it tells me that wifi is off and offers to turn it on. I click the link and nothing happens. If I go to settings network cards it shows "IEEE 802.11b/g Compatible WiFi Adapter" is there. I have tried a hard reset/soft reset to no avail. Help?
Post relates to: Treo Pro T850 (Sprint)

Hello davistw and welcome to the Palm forums.
Normally, I would have suggested a hard reset to correct the problem.  Since you've done that already, my next suggestion would be to try and connect with a different Wi-Fi hot spot at a local library, coffee shop, or restaurant to see if the problem might be an incompatbilty with the Treo Pro and your Wi-Fi base station.
As far as I can tell, there are no networking updates available for the Treo Pro.

  • Can't get wifi

    can't get wifi. my old ipad has perfect connection. ipad 2 isn't picking up my wifi. i already used reset couple of times.

    Be sure that you aren't in Airplane mode & have Wifi turned on in the Preferences.
    Pretty basic, but can be overlooked.

  • Can i get wifi calling on my 5s

    can i get wifi calling on my 5s, i have no signal at home and keep missing important calls 

    Yes, settings/phone/wifi calling, switch it on, if it isn't there, you need to update the software on the phone first.
    Also if it is all there and doesn't come on call 150 to make sure EE have activated it on your account.

  • Can't get wifi working on X201 after installing Win 7 64 bit

    I've just purchased an X201 type 3294 with a 320gb HDD running Windows 7 64bit. Wifi works fine when running from the original HDD. I've pulled the HDD and replaced it with an SSD and installed windows 7 64 bit so I can use the 4gb RAM which came with the computer. I did a fresh install then started trying to install drivers. I started with Wifi first so I could download the rest of the drivers directly to the computer. I can't get wifi working after installing Windows 7 64bitfor some reason. I have the original HDD in an external enclosure so I can still access it.
    I can't figure out what drivers I need, or even what adapter I have on the computer.Lenovo's part look up tells me the adapter is part number 60Y3231, but that information seems to be useless. I've tried most of the drivers on Lenovo's driver page. I've tried just copying the C:/Drivers folder from the original HDD, and just about anything else I can thinkof. 
    Anyone know how I can get the right driver, or if this is even a driver problem? For what it's worth I'm not afraid of having to learn some terminal if I have to but I'm totally unfamiliar with Win 7. I have much more experience with XP, Vista and OSX/some Ubuntu.

    Hello and welcome,
    If you have a wired connection you could try installing ThinkVantage System Update.  Run it and it should find all the appropriate drivers and install them for you.
    That FRU seems to be an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6200. It's hard to tell from the drivers page which one to use.  Most of the README files include 6200.  My best guess:  http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/g1w218ww_s64.exe

  • Have done all the trouble shooting connection but my iPad still can not get wifi connection

    i have done all the trouble shooting connection but mu iPAd still can not get wifi connection

    Hi Jo,
    Each router is a little different but here are the basics: login to the router using the administrator account, should have that info from the installer, and then you should find something like security settings, or it may be advanced security.  There will be a setting to the effect of limiting access, or it may say allow Mac address authentication, or admit the Mac addresses in the table...if that is switched on, you can just switch it off and that will allow any wireless device to attach.  If you want to keep it on, then you have to enter the Mac address for the device you want to use for access.  In the case of the iPad, go to Settings > General > About > WiFi Address (another way of saying Mac address).  Enter that very long sequence in the router's Mac address acceptance table and that should take care of things.
    Using the Mac address does not change any of the email settings, just limits attaching to the router in the first place.
    If you are already getting email, you must be attaching already so this should not be an issue.  If you are having email issues, such as receive but not send, you may not have the outgoing server set correctly: Settings > Mail > Account > Outgoing server name (usually an SMTP server) and you may have to go to the advanced settings to enter the outgoing password (normally the same as the account/incoming password) and then check to see if SSL is ON or OFF...most common email services say to set to OFF.

  • Solved network can't get wifi working on acer 571G

    Hi I have been fiddlin for past day on the issues with not luck.  The problem was initially I can't get wifi connection to work, ethernet is fine. I am using dhcpcd and networkmanager and the kde plasma applet.  I have also used nmtui.   Networkmanager picks up available connections and I have entered correct password but no good.  Can't get wifi activated.  Wired connection is fine.   I will give you some details of both hardware and network.

    After another day of trying I think I have NetworkManager working but not sure how good, especially when I don't have a clue what I am doing I have read, re read wireless and networkmanager wikis and it was not until I looked for a step by step guide that I found this http://evilshit.wordpress.com/2012/09/1 … th-gnome3/.  Although for gnome it is much the same for kde where you install kde plasma nm-applet.  In this article it did specically state to remove all dhcpcd services. 
    In the NetworkManager wiki I did state " Note: You must ensure that no other service that wants to configure the network is running; in fact, multiple networking services will conflict. You can find a list of the currently running services with systemctl --type=service and then stop them."  However it was not until I read the evilshit article that I found out dhcpcd had to be removed.  For newbies wikis need to be more specific.  Enspecially I think  setting up ethernet and wireless connections.

  • Can't get WIFI on IPAD 2, despite the fact it shows it is connected to WIFI

    I have an ipad 2 and the wifi was working fine last night. when i tried to use today the wifi would not work, however it shows that it is connected to the wifi, i just can't get the internet to load. all other wireless computers and other ipad works fine. what could be the issue?

    You can try any of these, or combination:
    - In iPad settings, forget the wi-fi network and then re-connect
    - Reset iPad
    - Reset iPad's network settings, then re-connect to network
    - Re-boot your router and Reset your iPad

  • Can't get WiFi network printing

    hey there all,
    i recently swapped out my AXg base station for the new AEBSn. i have 2 H-P printers; 1 an HP Photosmart(circa late 2006) directly connected to my DP G5. the other, a PSC(circa mid 2004) was connected to my AXg. my problem is that now w/ the PSC connnected to the AEBSn USB port, it acts as though it is connecting & starting to print, but it does 1 line then quits. i've done all the things suggested in the Airport help as well as from H-P's website.
    i've dl'd & reinstalled the driver, turned things off/on, unplugged/re-plugged all to no avail. so far i can get printing from 2 of my other Macs(a MacBook & a 17" iMac CD) from the PSC, but only by having the PSC printer connected via USB through a hub to the DP G5 & used as a shared printer, but neither can see/connect to the Photosmart even though it appear as option in the Print Dialog. i need to have the Photosmart as the default/shared printer on the DP G5 & the PSC as the AEBS/WiFi network printer. this is the way things were setup w/ the AXg, but if they were even reveresd, w/ the Photosmart as the WiFi network printer & the PSC as the default/shared printer on the DP G5 that would work. also, i can not get the other Macs on my network to connect to the Photosmart to print & i can't get my 17" iMac G4 to connect to either printer. i'll keep plugging away w/ trying the "Help" in the meantime as i really need to be able to print to @ least 1 printer from all the Macs. anyone w/ more thoughts or ideas than those available in Airport Help will be greatly appreciated.
    thanks.

    I am having the same problem. I have two HP photosmart printers, 7700 and 7900 series. They both worked before over the old airport extreme. Now, neither work over the new airport extreme. They act like the are starting to print and then stop. Can someone resolve this problem. They main reason I upgraded was to support multiple printers on the network. Now I don't even have one.
