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?

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

N95 WLAN Connection problems - Orange Livebox (UK)

I am trying to get the N95 to connect to the internet wirelessly through Orange Livebox (UK). I have run the WLAN wizard and the phone has identified it. I have input the WEP key and thats worked fine.......except everytime I try to connect to the net via this method I get a connection error. Has anybody else had WLAN connection problems? Can anybody help?

hi,
did you press "1" button at the back of the Livebox before pairing ?
what kind of error message do you get on the N95 ?
does it fail the same way when you go through the homescreen "WiFi scanning / Start Web Browsing" or through Tools / WLAN Wizard ?
Cheers,

E71 Wifi Connection Problem

I am a new E71 user, and before everything, here's a little background:
I bought mine in Hong Kong a few weeks back, and I've been using it in Canada since. One day I received a call from my service provider saying that I have used up quite a bit of pay-per-use data. I was very surprised because I've been using my Wifi at home. I also thought I had set up my phone so everytime I surfed the internet I was asked to connect to my Wifi. I called my provider and asked them to lock my 3G access. They said ok and that was that.
1) How do I prevent the phone from using 3G when browsing? I had already set the phone to ask me which connection to use everytime the browser is launched. But still, as mentioned, I was charged for 3G usage.
2) Now I am having trouble connecting to my Wifi at home. All my other devices (a Macbook, a PC, another laptop) are all fine. I've tried restarting the phone, but no luck. Wifi connection still worked after I had called my service provider and lock my 3G.
Please help!
Thanks!

It sounds as though your phone has always had trouble connecting through the WIFI and this could be a hardware issue. It might be an idea to get the phone checked out at a Nokia service center.
When I browse the net through WIFI I always go through the menu
MENU - CONNECTIONS - WLAN at least that way you are sure of getting the right connection.

Thanks a lot pfloding for your input. It seems though to be a different problem - your phone suddenly drops quality of 3G and WLAN communications. I would definitely have contacted Nokia or whoever sold you this baby ‘cause from what you describe it looks faulty to me.
I don't think it is a hardware problem, as battery life, 3G reception and WLAN suddenly works much better. My guess is that something in the WLAN implementation causes the phone to go into some kind of fruitless loop, wasting battery and interfering with 3G. I have turned of the WLAN setting "Show availability" now (WLAN works fine anyway), and so far things seem better!

3- Is WPA Enterprise same as WPA2 in my phone or is there a special pluggin I have to download to get and WPA2 Enterprise security feature?
4- How to I access the TKIP encryption in my phone?
Can somebody provide me with some technical advise?
Thanks in advance

Update to my Network Connectivity Dilemma.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
It seems I can use 802.1x WI-FI Security mode authentication to connect to WLANs that are configured for WPA2 Enterprise since both authentication methods use the same security settings in a WLan Infrastructure.
They both have EAP with similar EAP Plug-in settings.
If this theory is correct, then I can use my Nokia 5800 to access a WPA2 Enterprise authentication Wlan with the 802.1x WI-FI Security mode.
Objections any body?

WLan driver installation solved WLan connection problems on Satellite P200

After 2 fruitless days of trying to get my wireless adapter to recognize my home network I finally stumbled on the solution. I have a Satelitte P200 which used the AtherosAR5007EG adapter.
If you go back to the Windows XP 32 bit drivers it works like a charm. Installed the new driver and it found my network right away and I could get on the internet.

Hi
You are a owner of the new P200? Its a great notebook I like the design
Anyway thanks for the great info and I wonder that a XP WLan driver works with Vista OS
Bye

hello everybody
Please id like to know if i can download wireless sofware to my nokia e71 that doesn't have the WLAN wizard feature???
Thanks
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.

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 ?

Nokia n8 wlan wifi connectivity problems

I purchased Nokia N8 about 2 months ago. Lovely phone, camera etc. However I am having serious issues with wlan/wifi. I have set up my phone to connect only to wifi or wlan. I believe I have all the settings correct. But when I try to connect to the web I keep getting the message that connection charges will be incurred etc and when I click on it goes online using my phone internet ie O2 wap service or my O2 internet service. Therefore I am being charged even though I have connected to wifi. I have tried everything but this is getting really annoying. I am abroad at the momen and my hotel has free wifi etc. Even when I have gone into my O2 store I might aswell be talking to the wall. No good. I should have purchased an Apple I4. Can someone please help me.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

For all people experiencing problems with N8 (and some C series phones) and WLAN connections : Is your router a Linksys, Alcatel, Thompson or Speedtouch?
I had a Speedtouch 585 router v7 and couldn't connect to my home WiFi, but could connect at my friends' Wi-Fi's. I tried renaming the SSID with no blanks, manually setting the IP's and DNS, but the problem persisted. And the problem was the router. Since the firmware upgrade, the QoS (Quality of service) parameter cannot be tampered with. You have to turn it off manually. To do so, do this :
1) Open a command line window (start-->accessories-->command line OR start-->run--> type "cmd")
2) type telnet 192.168.1.254 and press enter (this was the router's IP address in my case, it may be 192.168.1.0 or 192.168.0.1) (If it doesn't connect right-click the connection icon at the bottom of the screen-->properties-->TCP/IP and note the IP address)
3)enter your username and press enter (default admin)
4)enter your password and press enter (default <blank>)
5)the router command line logo should appear. Type wireless and press enter
6)type qos and press enter
7)type config mode disabled and press enter
8)type saveall and press enter
9)type exit and press enter
Find your WiFi in your N8 as usual (delete any previous access points of your WiFi if any) and set it as first in priority (in N8 : settings-->connectivity-->settings-->network destinations-->internet)
You are ready !

Asha 302 wifi problem - "WLAN connection failed"

I have nokia asha 302 two days. I have problem with wifi connection. I see "my wifi" in wifi list, but when I click connect, I get message "WLAN connection failed". Version of mobile Asha is 14.78.
I have router Ovislink WN-200R. My wifi setinngs is in attachment (set 1).

But in my house I use PC with wifi N for speed. Do you know any other solution?
PS. I use Nokia 5530, Iphone 4GS, HTC desire S too. And I don`t have this problem.
Thanks a lot

"Wrong Password"
There are several reasons why that could happen. One reason: Your network changed from WPA2-PSK back to WPA1-PSK. Some Wi-Fi access-points have silly mixed-mode settings. If your network is in mixed mode, first try the old version: WPA-only (WPA-PSK). Because some very old Wi-Fi access-points do not support WPA2 correctly even for multicast, as next step try the more secure version 2: WPA2-PSK. If that does not work:
Do you have a Mac OS X computer around?
If yes, please, go to Applications » Utilities » Terminal and enter
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Apple80211.framework/Resources/airport -I -s
The last part (Security) should be ‘WPA2(PSK/AES/AES)’ and nothing else.
Do you have a Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 computer around?
If yes, please, open a command prompt (as Administrator, keys: Windows-R), and enter
netsh wlan show networks mode=bssid
The network type has to be not Ad-hoc but Infrastructure.
The basic rates should be ‘1 2 5.5 6 11 12 24’ (IEEE 802.11g/n) and nothing else.
Do you have a Android device around?
If yes, install the free Wifi Analyzer. Within that tool, please, tap the wrench icon (Settings) » Show full securities. Then go back and have a look at your Wi-Fi.
It must be [WPA2-PSK-CCMP][ESS] and nothing else.
If the connection still fails, please go to the configuration interface of your Wi-Fi access point and change your access-point back to the old WPA-PSK (TKIP-only) and 802.11g (only). If not available, avoid 802.11n and go for 802.11b/g. Does it work now?
If it still does not work, change your settings back to WPA2-PSK (AES-CCMP) only and 802.11g/n. Then, post the results of the above tools. If you do not like to post them into the public, you can send me a private message. But those information are public to your neighbours anyway.

I'd like to set it so my phone ALWAYS uses WLAN if available and only ever uses WAP when there is no WLAN connection.
It's a new phone (to me, anyway) and I'm still getting use to the settings.
It's an Eseries E71.
Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Go to Web > Options > Settings > General > Access point - does it currently say "User defined" or "Ask on connection"? If says the former change to "Ask on connection" and then back to "User defined" to give you opportunity to choose WLAN access point.
Another way is to install SmartConnect by Birdstep form Nokia Store: http://store.ovi.com/content/10328

N97 connectivity problems. N97 connects with WLAN ...

Hi,
A few days ago I installed the new firmware version 21 on my N97. Now when I turn on my phone it wants to connect to a wlan so that the phone can use that connection for your widgets that require internet. Before update 21 it always would connect with my mobile internet which is want I want it to do. This is not a problem for some apps since I can change the settings for those apps and have them connect to the mobile internet. But for some apps like the Ovi store or downloads of updates for my phone keeps asking for a wlan connection which in fact is turned off in my settings so why is it even asking for wlan?! The problem for those apps is that I can't change the settings so that they also connect with my mobile internet just like before with firmware version 20. I hope that you can solve this issue?

>but what happens if the biosupdate fails and the Lappy dont work anymore, is this ok with the garantee ?
Before you start BIOS update please check Toshiba BIOS-Update Information .
Bye and good luck!
