E71 Wireless Data Connection

Hi, does anyone know the setup details for a wireless data connection for the E71 on the O2 network.
I would like to pair my E71 to my TomTom GO 530. The E71 is currently unsupported by the Go 53o but you have the option to pair other phones. I need the O2 access point details, username, password and DNS settings.
TomTom give default settings on their support pages but these do not work on my phone/TomTom GO 530.
Any advice would be welcome.

B.
Thanks for your reply as it provides some helpful ideas and confirms that my issue is not totally unique. However you are describe an isssue with wifi where as I do not seem to have the problem there. My home wifi network connection seems stable. I encounter the problem whith my phone companies wireless data connection. More interestingly (although I need to do more testing to be absolutely certain) is that it appears that when I loose my abilityt to receive data I do NOT loose voice capability.
As a specific example. I am surfing the internet in front of my house (not on my home network however) and get in the car to drive ten blocks to the grocery store. I get there and can't remember the groceries I was to buy so I attempt to check the recipe on-line but can get no connection to surf. I can however call home to ask or (to save a lecture) I could also turn airplane mode on and off and that would re-establish my data connection to my phone company.
It feels like if I could do what you have done for your home connection - only on at a provder level - all would be good.
Thanks for your help.

IMAC Wireless Internet Connection Problems All Of A Sudden

My Imac is well over a year and a bit old and has been able to connect to my wireless internet connection absolutely fine until the past week and a half. At first the connection wouldn't work and when I would turn my airport on and off and reset the router, it would eventually work, now that is not working at all. My airport status is either showing 'airport is turned on but is not connected to a network' or 'airport has a self-assigned ip address and may not be able to connect to the internet'
I have formatted my imac twice and still no avail and the last format I tried to join wirelessly straight from boot but it wouldn't join saying 'there is a problem with the wireless connection and you're not connected to the internet.' the annoying thing is I can see the network sitting there and can't join it, my network is also unsecure so no need to input a password. All my home PC's and my Iphone and Blackberry find the network easily enough, although recently the Iphone has began showing only 1 bar of wifi connection.
I am at my wits end as I am unable to connect at all now, I am all out of ideas and have been bashing my head off a wall for the past day without any connection at all.
My router is a buffalo AirStation wireless G high power model, my IMAC is an intel core 2 duo 20", if you need anymore information of my hardware I will gladly provide it. I'm running MAC OSX Leopard 10.5, out the box as I've been unable to run any software updates as I can't connect to the internet.
Please, if anyone can shed any light at all on this issue I would definately try anything.
Thanks in advance and regards.

Anytime you see a self-assigned IP address in your network prefs you know it surely is a problem
with your router configuration. Power down all equip ... make sure modem is off for at least 5 minutes
restart modem, restart iMac ... check your network pref on iMac and make sure it's not 169.x.x.x
If so you will need to recapture the settings from your ISP's modem to the Buffalo.
Always use a secure wireless connection (WEP, WPA, WPA2) or else the whole neighborhood will suck down your bandwidth the slow down what your paying for. I use Time Capsules or AEBS (Airport Extreme Base Stations) that allow you to stealth mode and lower signal output and make the device
as a "closed network" ... meaning no one else can see and tap into your WIFI home network!
802.11N is better than G. and especially when you can use dual bands 2.4 / 5GHz to stop various home interferences. The backup of Time Machine only makes life much easier also! Xtech

HP Deskjet 460 wireless printer connection problem

I just replaced my Airport Extreme (pre-n) with a Time Capsule. My HP Deskjet 460 WiFi printer no longer connects through wireless. However, configuring the Time Capsule wireless mode to "802.11g/b only" (i.e. no 802.11n) resolves the connection problem.
Any suggestion on how to get the printer to connect with 802.11n enabled?
Thanks in advance,
- gael

I also have an HP 460wbt and have similarly replaced my old airport base station with the TC. Without any wireless security the printer connected fine - but couldn't get connection using WPA or WEP. I've tried every combination I can - but have gone back to reconnecting the airport base station alongside the TC with bridging to the ADSL netgear modem I use. This seems a bit like overkill but I just can't get the WPA on the printer to work with the WPA personal options of the TC. Have you any ideas on this one?

2504 controller + 2602 APs = wireless clients connectivity problems

Hello, everybody!
I have a connectivity problems of wireless clients. The symptoms are:
1) Some clients receive 169.254.x.x., instead a correct DHCP addresses, less in a minute connection drops, and in controller's "Monitor" > "Clients" tab these clients are marked as "Excluded".
2) Most of the clients receive the correct addresses from DHCP (192.168.2.x), but also loose connection soon.
3) Wireless clients with correct addresses can't ping each other, gateway and an address of the controller's dynamic interface (all of them are in same subnet).
4) And the most suspicious problem is that some machines are unable to connect to APs after several attemps to do that. I mean, I configure controller and change some options, trying to understand, whether they were applied or not and constantly connect and disconnet certain PC to the SSID. After five or ten attempts I can't connect to the SSID. During these attempts, the others PCs stay connected, without interruptions, and they could be reconnected again. It's like some kind of port security works, but I'm not sure...
Do you have any ideas which options should I configure?
My configuration:
I have three interfaces on the controller: virtual, management (default) and dynamic (it is set to the WLAN)
I have one SSID, WPA/WPA2, AES/TKIP, authentication PSK.
My clients are a/b/g/n, all are permitted on the controller. No custom security policies were applied.
All the devices are in a single room: controller, one AP and different clients: desktop, notebooks, iPad, Nokia Lumia, etc.
I have an internal DHCP Server on the controller and it works perfectly well.
I can provide all the screenshots required from web-interface of the controller...
Many thanks in advance for all ideas that you have about these problems...

Hi, there!
The problem was solved.
1) APIPA address receives only single machine with Win8 - I think there are some firewall issues
2) Other devices have been loosing connection because they were mobile devices, like iPad and Lumia. If you keep working with it, it doesn't drop the connection
3) The dynamic interface address and gateway address were inaccessible because i had not used an appropriate port on the controller. =)))) Firstly, it was just a guess, but it proved.
Now, everything works with WPA2, AES, PSK...
It is a very good day!)
The only question remains: why I can't connect machines, which have a static IP? During the controller initialization, I said "yes" for permitting static IPs...
Guys, many thanks for your help!

WRT54G Wireless Router connection problem

I recently connected a Linksys WRT54G to one notebook computer, with a wired connection. This computer uses the Vista Home Basic operating system. I have another computer using Windows XP Home which I connect to the Internet through this Notebook through my wireless router. However since replacing my D-Link 11 mbps router with the Linksys Router, My second computer does not locate my new connection. I suspect that it has something to do with the settings on the second computer, but can't figure out how to resolve this problem. Hopefully some of you experts out there can tell me how to deal with this.

Click on the Start button >>> go to RUN>> type in "services.msc" >>
click on OK- On the Services Local page double click on the
option "Wireless Zero configuration"- Here the Startup Type should
be "Automatic"- Click on the "Start" button and "Apply" the settings
and OK.
Deleting Preferred Network
Click on the Start button >>> Settings >>> Control Panel >>>Network
Connections >>Here right click on the "Wireless Network Connection"
icon and select Properties- Click on the "Wireless Network" tab- Make
sure that ""Use windows to configure my wireless network settings"" is
checked- In the "Preferred Networks" box select each network name and
click on "Remove" to make it empty- Click on OK.
**Click on the "Advanced" button(below the Preferred Networks) and
make
sure "Access point(infrastructure) networks only" is selected- And
also
make sure that "Automatically connect to non-preferred networks"
should
be unchecked >> click on "Close" and click on OK on main properties
window.
Connecting to Wireless Network (WLAN)
Click on the Start button >>> Control Panel >>> Network Connections-
Right click on the "Wireless Network Connection" icon and select "View
Available Wireless Networks"- If you see your wireless network in the
list, highlight it by 'single' clicking on it- Now click on
the 'Connect' button below- If your wireless network is secured, it
would ask you to provide the network key- Provide the wireless network
key and confirm it again in the confirmation box and

Wireless internet connection problems

Hi there,I'm from Holland so if my sentences come off weird, you know why... I got aquestion about wireless connections in the big city. I live in a fairly bigcity and my connection is failing at least 10 times a day... My provider toldme this might be because of the fact that i can receive a ton of signals (otherwireless network). Now, i don't buy that so im looking for a solution. Incomparison, i don't believe people in large cities in the US have theseproblems and some of them harbor more citizens than my entire country does...So i wanted to ask: I have this internet package (check out the specs if you will) is there something else that yourproviders offer and by that, overcome the frequency overload... modem differenttype of modems or something like that...? please help! thnx in advance!

I don't know if this is going to help anyone or not, but I was having a similar issue to many of the users on these discussion boards. My wireless was connecting and then dropping from 5 to 3 bars, then I would lose connection entirely for about a minute, then it would reconnect and work fine for 5 minutes etc. Sometimes, my airport would work great the whole time.
Anyway, I called applecare support and followed their various suggestions, to no avail. The IT guys at work couldn't figure it out either.
Fortunately for me, my computer was purchased through an academic institution, so I have onsite hardware and software support. With this being said, the hardware technician at work determined that the wire connecting my airport was lose. Since the airport is located at the bottom of the macbook near the hinge, the technician suggested that opening an closing the screen would affect how well the airport was connected given the lose wire.
With the lose wire problem taken care of, I don't seem to have these problems anymore. Also, before the problem was fixed I needed to be within about 20 feet of my router to get a good signal, and now I can pretty much go anywhere in my house and it works great.
Something to look into.

Thinkpad T61 wireless access connection problem and heat problem

My laptop keeps heating up ALOT i've been using tpfancontrol to make my fan go really fast and to cool it down. Anyone have a clue what to do about that? It automatically sets itself to smart (fan control config). Also my access connections has been working really bad lately. It won't connect anywhere. When i press fn+f5 and click on the network i want to connect to it would show connection successful and say applying wireless settings with a x next to it. Anyone know what to do about this?! cause i installed and uninstalled and nothing is working =[. Newest access connections and updated wireless drivers. Wireless zero connection is working fine though.

[SOLVED] Wireless internet connection problem during installation

Hi to everyone!
I ask you a help in activating my wireless connection.
I tried to install from the recent ISO (201208 - via CD)
but I found some problems in activating a wireless connection in the first steps
of the installation guide.
My laptop is a Hp pavilion dv5 1020-el, with an Intel wireless 5100AGN internal interface.
So I did:
1) iwconfig to see my devices and the system detects my wlan0.
2) followed the Wireless_Setup page from wiki to set it
3) used wpa_supplicant and passphrase to set my ESSID name and wpa key.
4) iwconfig then showed wlan0 associated with my ESSID, with Power ON and Encryption OFF.
I could not try a connection via ping command.
Even wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf did not work.
Maybe the problem is with Encryption OFF.
Thanks for your attention!
EDIT:
I solved this way,connecting to an open wireless open network:
1.(from boot) I created a profile in /etc/network.d/ from /etc/network.d/examples
2. started a # netcfg 'my_ESSID'
3. # ping -c 3 www.google.com
All is ok! I can install Arch Linux from my smartphone as a router.
But I couldn't connect to a WPA protected wireless network yet.

Thanks to everyone who responded to my question. The company who provides the wireless internet service to my apartment complex moved the antenna next to my unit and claims he boosted the power. As the saying goes, "The squeaky wheel gets the grease". I complained almost daily to the apartment manager and she, in turn, griped to the provider which eventually led to the "solution" above. Using Skype is still shaky as the person I'm calling isn't always able to make out what I am saying. So, I use Skype only when I REALLY need to make a phone call. Even though none of your suggestions solved my problem, I am still very, very grateful to all of you who tried. Thank you very, very much! -- Matt

APEx '03 and Non-Apple Wireless Client Connection Problems

Good morning. I have a 2003 vintage AirPort Extreme, running 5.5.1 firmware (due to the issues with the newer firmware discussed on this forum).
--> Wired iMax
My setup is DSL-->APEx--|
--> Apple Wireless Clients
--> Linksys w54 acting as a bridge
In order to get the Linksys working in the first place, I had to remove the WEP, not a huge deal as we live in the boonies and no one within range of the APEx. I couldn't figure out how to get anything to work with Apple wireless security outside of the Family. I have it manually set to channel 1, and radio mode to G only.
My problem basically is that non-Apple devices can see the SSID but cannot connect. The problem at hand are my kids' various PSPs & Ninendo DS's, and a little Windows CE netbook. Of course, none of these simple devices give anything helpful in terms of errors. Those three different devices all have their own version of the same error: See the SSID, try to connect, but fail.
I'd like to figure out this problem, although the simpler solution might be to just buy another cheap Linksys on craiglist and use it for the non-Apple stuff.

Mac Wireless Mouse Connection Problem

My Mac wireless mouse and my MacBook Pro works very well. The problem is that every time I start my computer, I must always pair and connect through system preferences. It rarely automatically connects. Is this normal?

Hello waben:
Probably not. However, try clicking the mouse several times. That usually causes mine to "find" the Mac.

Dhcpcd / wireless protected connections problems

Hello everyone!
I'm having some problems with my wi-fi network. I'm just a newbie of Arch Linux and hope that I can get some help!
First of all, in my rc.conf I have networking DAEMON enabled, I've set INTERFACES=(eth0 wlan0), and NETWORKS=(main).
When I boot up my computer, it starts loading all Daemons, but when it gets to networking, it keeps saying [BUSY], then gives me fetching error.
This is basically mi first and more stupid problem.
Now lets come to facts. I'm using Wi-Fi radar. Everything seems ok, the first time I try to I can connect to my OPEN wifi network (even if I have to enable ifconfig wlan0 up manually [is there a way to fix this?]).
When I just retry, or try to change network I get the following error:
dhcpcd: dhcpcd already running on pid <number>
Sometimes I also get
dhcp_client: interface not found or invalid
no interfaces have a carrier
forking to background
dhcpcd: dhcpcd already running on pid <number>
Instead, when I try to connect to a protected network (still through wi-fi-radar in root mode) I get
SET failed on device wlan0; Invalid argument.
I need some help to fix all of htis problems could someone help me? Thanks in advice... keep going!

Couple of suggestions;
1) What kind of wireless chip/card are you using - there are some quirks for specific cards.
2) Is this the only wireless network you will be connecting to? Will you occasionally use the NIC cable? If you are going to be changine Access Points you may want to look at netcfg. I had better luck with netcfg than networkmanager. I can't speak to wicd. You many want to check out the wiki's for the various options

E71 Wireless internet connection issue

I would be appreciated if someone could assist me with the following problem:
When I try to connect to internet through my home wireless router, phone relalizes it but when I try to go to a website, it says the following:
"Unable to connect, invalid WPA pre-shared key"
What does this mean?
Thanks,
Edwin

Hi I had this problem with my E51. I bought the phone and the first WLAN I tried to connect it to, fooling around, was in a public place, turned out to be password protected, I didn't want to pay so I bailed and didn't connect.
The next time was in my guest house where I had already connected my PC so I figured it would be a no-brainer - as it was with my PC.
Well. Not so. I kept thinking - is the WPA pre-auth key something different from what Vista wanted? Or what???
Then eventually I googled "invalid WPA pre-authorized key" in Nokia support. Blah blah blah but no solutions.
Out of desperation I dug down into all the settings menus I could find and eventually blundered into
Menu > Tools > Settings > Connection > Access points
which had squirrelled away an access point for each time I had ever tried to connect!
Well that can't be good I thought, and I deleted them all - which took a while.
Then I tried to connect again and voila I got the browser up and running!
I think that's what did it, but, I did change some other stuff that may have had something to do with it - who knows.
I changed a browser setting:
Menu > Web > Options > Settings > Genera > Access point
to "Always ask"
And I changed:
Menu > Tools > Settings > Connection > Wireless LAN > Options > Advanced Settings > Yes > Power saving >
to 'Disabled'.
Good luck - I will be interested to hear if this helps you or, if you try it and it doesn't.

Nokia E71 - PC Suite connectivity problem

Hi, I am using E71 since 1 year and use to connect to my LAPTOP on PC Suite. Since One month i am facing problem that the phone is not getting connected to my LAPTOP. Drivers are installed , PC suite upgraded to 7.4.x, checked at Nokia care center, No success. When I click on PC Suite, it looks for connectivity and gives an error as check for connector drivers. I got my LAPTOP also verified by service centre and confirmed LAPTOP is good with any other device except with this. Meanwhile If I connect the same E71 with same cable to another LAPTOP which is installed with PC Suite is connecting well and even at Nokia support center it worked with their PC. I could not find a solution. on how to resolve this. Pl. help me.
I have enclosed screen shorts for reference. My LAPTOP has 4 USB ports and device is detected and drivers are installed on all the 4 ports. But it is not detected from PC SUITE.
BUT IF I CONNECT THE PHONE IN MASS STORAGE DEVICE, IT IS WORKING FINE.
Enclosed file is .docx file, pl. remove .txt in the extension and read.

Problem just solved. I installed Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition SP2 operating system and now it works perfectly, so the problem was just that the performance edition operating system caused the drivers not installing properly. But now I have another kind of a problem. I am using the N96 as a modem for Internet. I can only get a speed of approx 45kb/s, while I have got almost 110kb/s with another computer using the same cable. Is it caused because of the USBv1.1 slow USB version? But shouldn't it still be able to do better than 45kb/s, while it transfers files with OK speeds? When I use the Bluetoothv1 USB Dongle, it works with about the same speed but only when using the performance edition, not when using the home original OS. When using home edition OS it works about 5kb/s, but it could have been just temporary. But my main question is, still, that how could I get the speed faster? I have installed the windows KBxxxxxxx patch, but still it works pretty slow, just about half of the speed it is supposed to work.
