E71 on Wlan

Hi i just have bought a e71, at work i can connect to my Wlan, but at home at my Apple Airport NOT , i have tried all setting, WPA WPA2 WEB open
but always give me WEP key incorrect
al my other devices are working fine
can someone help me with this BIG problem
i'm also looking for software thats connect to every Wlan network, so first look if there are known networks available en connect to the network and if not makes the connection trough UMTS
Is there something like this
Tnx John

I don't know if this helps to debug the issue. I tried all the stuff mentioned in several forums.
My wifi (3Com router) is connected but Nokia browser, MFE and Google Maps don't work with the connection (same gateway problem). However Skyfire works fine with the same connection.
I suspect there is some serious problem with E71's apps while using the wifi connection.
In India mobile data plans are exorbitant and without Wifi connection this phone becomes useless for me.
After 1 week I am fed up with my E71 and am buying a new phone - In India Nokia doesn't have return policy too :-(

hello everybody

Hi okridwan,
Nokia E71 supports WLAN connection. You can verify that by visiting this link: http://www.developer.nokia.com/Devices/Device_specifications/E71/
If you are referring to the software update, you may check the available update by using the Nokia Suite.
Before updating, use the Nokia Suite as well to back up your phone. You can be sure that your contacts, messages, calendar entries, tasks, web feeds, and other important stuff are backed up safely. The contents of your phone memory and memory card, such as photos and videos, are safe and won’t be affected during the update.
You can use the link to download the Nokia Suite: www.nokia.com/nokiasuite
Connect the phone you want to back up to your computer with a USB cable. On your phone, select Nokia Suite (or PC Suite) and then select OK.
In Nokia Suite, click Tools then Backup. Nokia Suite shows you a list of the content types that you can back up and prepares a list of information that can be backed up.
Select the information that you want to back up. If you want to change where the backup file is saved, click Browse and choose another location. If you have a lot of music, photos or videos on your phone, including them in the backup will cause the backup process to be slower.
Click Start to begin backing up. Do not disconnect or switch off your phone during the backup. If you need to stop the backup, click Stop. Nokia Suite will reach a safe stop point and will then stop the backup.
Click Finish to close the window after the backup is complete.
To update your phone software, you can follow the steps below:
In Nokia Suite, select Tools then Software updates. If an update is available for your phone, you can see it here along with any other updates that are available.
Click Install to start the installation. During the installation, Nokia Suite takes you through the following steps:
Get started
Back up (recommended)
Install
Restore (optional)
Finish
Please do not disconnect your phone until the installation is completely finished. Doing so might cause damage to your phone or result in its contents being lost.
Hope this helps.

What is "Radio Measurements" option in E71's WLAN ...

Hi guys,
My question might be a little bit eccentric and perhaps some WLAN gurus can answer . I've found an option in WLAN "Advanced Settings" of my E71, called "Radio Measurements". Anybody knows what is its function and in which occasion shall I disable it (it's enabled by default).
Thank you in advance.
Solved!

E71 - No WLAN Network Found Problem

Hi,
I have been using my Nokia E71 from 3 network for 3 months without any problem, my phone connects to Wireless network at my home and browse in internet will full speed.
I have been installing some software, after which problem started, my phone search for wireless network and says "No WLAN Network found".
I tired soft reset, hard reset and even I resintalled phone software through Nokia software update but still this problem not resolved.
If anyone faced this same problem and found solution, can you please share the procedure to fix this WLAN network problem in this topic.
Thanks,
Maha

I too get a similar problem.
It was OK up until recently, at home. But for some strange reason - when I connect to the internet via my access point, it sometimes doesn't find it, or says no WLAN found, even though the router is in the room directly upstairs.
However the iPod Touch I have also gets a similar problem, and a weak signal in some places, the router was on top of my Aluminum Desktop PC so I thought it could be that, having moved it, it made no difference.
I have a NETGEAR DGN2000 wireless draft-N modem/router. I think it could be the "Draft-N" that could be causing the problem. Although I have not fully ruled out the handset, and it could be the latest firmware. For me I have not bottomed this out, either to the phone or router, but am inclined to think its more the router.
If yours is a draft-N router it might be worth switching it to 802.11b/g mode only and try that. I shall try when my new E72 arrives next week

TV on the E71 (using WLAN)

Hi everyone...
I am looking for a good 'streaming' TV application on the E71.can anyone recommend one ?
I have tried the following :- FreeBeTv but it installed on the E71 then complained of not having an 'sccess point' set up and didn't run, so I had to remove the application !! I think this could be because FreeBeTv needs a GPS connection...
I am running my E71 purely on Wifi so I need a TV application that runs well on a WiFi link..
Can you sugget one please ??
Thanks
Harry

I have been using an application called Live TV by Vimio. It gives you a choice of very few channels but, it works!. You can download it from here:

E71: WLAN preferred, 3G only if WLAN not available...

Hello together,
I am just configuring my E71 and I really enjoy the surfing on 3G as well as its WLAN-capability.
Is there any possibility to configure the E71 preferring WLAN connections for data transfers first, and only if not available then switch to 3G network?
It is a bit annoying to choose every time the connection I´d like to for browsing and so on - therefore I would like to configure an active WLAN connection as the primary connection and only if this one is not available (no network reachable) switching then to 3G.
Has anybody experience how to conf it this way?
Thanks in advance!

Help...

In the SCVMM world a 'template' is composed of the following: a VHD with an OS that has been generalized (sysprep), virtual hardware profile (settings), and an OS profile.
The OS profile is required to have a product key. A MAC activation key at the minimum. But the key is required.
If you deploy a VM from a VHD, the same customization assumptions are not at play. Which is why it succeeds. (there is no template in this case, there is also no requirement that the OS in the VHD be sysprep'd).
SCVMM has rules. And lots of things don't make sense until you begin to understand them and play within them. (I am not saying that the SCVMM rules are a good thing, just saying they exist)

Help!!!!!!!! WLAN connection E71

I have a problem with WLAN connection (E71), when I access my wlan, i receive a message saying " WLAN is already active, close it and try again".

Please, have someone any solution?

E71 web browser will search for WLAN connection in...

The E71 web browser will search for and present a list of WLANs whilst the phone is in offline mode without asking first. When you then select a WLAN from the list, it does ask if you wish to create a WLAN connection in offline mode. Surely it should ask before searching?

With new FW i can't set, that browser ask me.
Before new SW , browser alwasy give me an option to choose wlan connection..
I this a bug in new FW ?

Cost of using WLAN on E71

I have an account which allows me to use the internet for a certain amount of time in a month, and more than that costs extra. When my E71 is connected to internet by WLAN, is it seperate from this account, ie, its free, right?

My understanding of your questions is as follows: you have a mobile phone contract which gives you a set number of 'free' minutes/hours each month for accessing the Internet, and also probably a set number of 'free' minutes and texts. Whenever you use more than your 'free' amount you are charge additional money over your normal monthly contract rate.
WLAN, or WiFi, is separate to your monthly mobile contract - i.e. you are not using your mobile provider's mobile/cellular network.
If you connect your phone via a WiFi access point (WLAN or Wireless Local Area Network) then you are NOT using your mobile/cellular access time. This is the same as using your PC on the WLAN.
This assumes that you're on your own WLAN connection or a free WiFi hotspot.
If you're outside and you connect purely via your mobile using 3G (mobile data connection) then you are using your free internet time and anything over your monthly allowance will be chargeable.
Hope that helps!

E71 wlan issue after firware upgrade

I just upgraded by E71 to the latest software version. The upgrade went without any issues. After the upgrade I realised that t had removed all my contacts - so I had to restore my backup(I restored the SETTINGS as well). I was using a app for my 'WiFi' (for prioritizing my access points) and after the firmware upgrade - I could not see this app at all. The following are my issues now:
1. I cannot connect to my home wifi(WEP) - it was fine before the upgrade. The first time it says - 'Connection not available' and every subsequent time it irritates by showing 'WLAN already active. Please close the connection and retry'.
2. I have tried to restore the factory settings and it still does not work.
3. I have renamed my Access point to the ones that the app was using - still no luck.
So, what are my options now? Can somebody please help? I never thought a small software upgrade could spoil my whole evening!

Hello,
I have just had EXACTLY the same problem.
I have a Nokia E71 and it was working OK before the upgrade. I just used the latest Nokia Updater and latest nokia pc suite to upgrade to 500.21.009.
The upgrade performed perfectly, and after the upgrade I restored my backed up data.
I have the exact symtpoms as psankar. I have factory reset the phone and tried again. Same problem.
Connection not available, and then connection already active. Small Wireless icon appears at top right of screen, and stays there, but there is no active connection in connection manager.
The only way to remove the wifi icon and to get the phone to attempt to reconnect is to power off the phone, but then on reconnectig then you get connection not available and then the whole cycle begins again.
Help appreciated
TIA
Alex

I have following problesm:
1. Even When I am standing next to the Wifi Access Point the E71 will say that there is no WLAN Available. (However while doing the SCAN, my laptop which uses the same WLAN Network works, fine.
2. After the upgrade of the firmware - I am unable to use the GPRS/EDGE from my operation - as I have unlimited data plan.
I HAVE DONE A COMPLETE FACTORY Reset as well - but nothing helps. This problem was NOT there before the Firmware Upgrade.
Any Help will be greatly appreciated.

I believe the only solution would be to downgrade to the previous firmware and wait till new one will come.
Strange, no replies from Nokia people at all. Looks like they don't care about this forum...
Can anybody comment is that confirmed problem and does Nokia work on it or not?

E71 Wlan connection problems

Hi all
Have been trying to log on to my secure home network using my E71 & have not been successful. I go to all the steps as per the manual including key in the
Pre-shared key for Wlan which I guess is my Wlan password, is this correct?
I get an error message
Wlan unable to connect
Wlan network not found??
This is a strange message when it has detected the network in the first place? Anyone have any ideas?

Yeah, I'm having similar problems. The phone detects the router WLAN, but the router does not detect the phone WLAN. The message I get is: No reaction from gateway.
I suspect that there is an issue with how the various manufacturers implement 802.11b/g
According to the Nokia Os 9.2 the following is supported:
WLAN IEEE 802.11b/g
WLAN Security: WEP, 802.1X, WPA, WPA2
TCP/IP support
My router states the same (Thomson Speedtouch 780) and yet my router cannot detect my Nokia device, even from 30 cm distance.
I may have to upgrade the router firmware to get this to work; still waiting for a reply by Alcatel/Thomson

E71 WLAN connection problem

hello, i just brought a nokia E71 about 2 hours ago, and i get home to setup the wlan settings, and i typed in the password wrong and now i cant get back to being able to re type in the password and now it keeps asking me for "pre shared key for wlan"
how do i fix this, because the phone is pretty much useless unless i can use my wifi connection

problem is it dosnt actually ask for a password it asked for pre shared key for wlan
i was at a friends house last night who only had WEP basic protection and when i tried to connect it asked for the password not a pre shared key.
if i take away my wifi password and only give it low WEP protection should that fix it?
