How to Setting IP manually Nokia 500 WLAN

HOW to Setting IP manually Nokia 500 WLAN ?
Moderator's notes: Moved to own thread.

Hi masmuhay,
Thank you for your post and welcome to the forums!
You can set up WLAN manually by following these instructions:
Go to Menu > Settings > Connectivity > Settings > Network destinations
If you have not yet set up your WLAN, select Access point to add a new access point. Give the set up wizard all the information it requires. Otherwise, just select Internet
Select your WLAN connection in the list (under Internet) and Options > Advanced settings > IPv4 (or IPv6 depending on your connection) to set up your IP and DNS address manually
Let us know if this helps,

IPhone 5S manual network selection

Hi all,
I have an unlocked iphone 5S and seem to have an issue with the manual selection mode. I was travelling outside my resident country and switched to manual network selection mode to choose my preferred roaming network in the foreign country. After spending 10 minutes scanning, the phone didn't come back with any results although there was clearly network coverage of my preferred roaming network where I was standing. I had to restart the phone and then surprisingly ios 7.1 changed the network selection mode from manual to automatically. After changing it back to manual, I was finally able to get my preferred network. However, there was another issue with this - after successfully registering onto the preferred roaming network and having made calls on this network, the phone for some odd reason switched to another network which I hadn't chosen. This happened despite the network selection kept on manual. Eventually, my roaming bills went through the roof due to this.
Can someone pls help out with this issue?

Just to clarify the original query.
1. I manually select, say, three Sweden when I'm in Sweden.
2. Just so we're clear, I have tried switching off and then re-booting the phone in manual mode.
3. I do whatever mail sending etc is necessary only to find the phone has flipped over to, for example, 3G Sweden, which is not part of the Three Group.
4. It seems to me that in the midst of preparing a message etc, the network goes down and the phone then picks up the next strongest network signal in the vicinity, even though the network selection is set to one network only. And therein lies the problem - the flicking over and back costs money.
Three.ie blame Apple, but why do I have a sense that it may not be all Apple's fault, that there may be a network switching issue mixed up in it as well?

X3-02 "roaming" manual network selection reverts

Hi,
As the header states, I wish to lock my phone to the "roaming" network. The phone successfully connects to roaming for a few minutes, then frustratingly reverts to it's Home network automatically.
It can be seen that the menu option also reverts back to "Automatic" network selection.
The conditions are as follows:
3G 'Three' 900Mhz - very poor reception that drops out
3G 'Roaming' 850Mhz - perfect reception
Please advise how to make the manual selection stick.

Blackberry curve 9300 manual network selection

when i set my curve 9300 to manual network selection, and i select my networ, if i go in a palce underground or something and i lose the signal, the phone doesn' t pick up the signal automatically when i am back in a coverage area. instead, i find an alert window that says "can't find home network and asks me to chose whether i waast to: set it to automatic, go into settings, or cancel" and i have to either go in settings and select it again or jsut set it to automatic and it will find it. in other smart phones it usually gives that alert, but as soon as i am back in a coverage area, it picks up the home network on its own without having to go to settings. so is this the normal behavior?
Solved!

Different carrier, despite manual network selection

Why does the manual network selection not fix the chosen network carrier.
I use the option manual network selection, select my preferred network carrier, but once I loose the connection to the chosen carrier (train ride), my iPhone 3GS starts a new search and switches to a different available carrier, despite manual network selection activated. As far as I was concerned, manual network selection should prevent the iphone 3GS to search for a different carrier, except the one chosen.
When I go back into the network selction menu, manual network selection is still activated and a checkmark is set on the preferred chosen network. Despite these facts, the iPhone 3GS is logged in to another carrier's network, indicated in the top left corner.
This is a big problem, when I'm using my iPhone in another country. Roaming Costs are high!
A quick search in the www indicateds, that I'm not the only one with this problem. As it can cause high additional costs, this problem should be fixed as soon as possible.

honestly i don't think its a apple iphone direct issue. here's what i know...i have had a no service on my 3gs randomly coming up on my phone for nearly a year now. i have done everything you've stated and still the same. i recently just went to australia and used a telstra sim card and it worked flawlessly for 2 months. i believe that bell and telus have changed their signal or something that is causing this but they will deny it to the bitter end. so...why not just buy another iphone? Exactly! thats what they want you to do! It's just a ploy to get you to buy another phone. if you can get another carrier besides these 2 crooks i think you will find it works. try buying a cheap prepaid sim card to see which carrier works best in your area before selecting a plan.

Nokia E71 Manual Network selection Problems

HI
I have the E71 on the Three network and it allows roaming in this country (something thats usually locked off) to avoid roaming charges I went to change the phones network select option from Automatic to manual, I get the usual pop up to select the network I want to connect to but when I go back to the network options screen it shows as automatic and does indeed allow roaming. How do I actually change to manual network selection.
Cheers

I can't believe that Nokia have not resolved this problem.
The problem gives a direct influence on the cost of calls, which is very excessive.
I spent 3 hours on the phone to Three to try to resolve the problem and nothing worked. Tried removing sim card and putting it back in, factory reset and hard reset.
For a regular traveler this phone is a nightmare. Call charges can range from £0.25p to £1.50 and 0.12p to 0.25p. Also call charges may be applicable in the UK depending on your network provider.
Quite simply not fit for its purpose. A mobile phone by definition is "a hand-held mobile radiotelephone for use in an area divided into small sections, each with its own short-range transmitter/receiver provided by a specific network carrier".
Unfortunately the phone does not meet this definition. Under the Trade Descriptions Act of 1968 should be entitled to a refund as customers have been mislead by the sale of the handset. Also the phone directly misleads roaming customers.
Also under the Sale of Goods Act of 1979 the mobile phone should be "fit for purpose". Unfortunately the E71 is not fit for purpose as a mobile phone does not meet its definition and as a customer the network provider does not provide a fair service carried by the network. Most networks are contractually bound to do so.
If you have a problem with this phone please contact Nokia or your provider to try to resolve the problem and push the new firmware as soon as possible!

Manual network selection for iPhone 5

i need manual network selection for iPhone 5 why do not?

You bought the wrong phone.
Yes, it will work. Up to a point. LTE will not work as they use different LTE bands. Contact AT&T to make sure 3G data is provisioned properly on your account. And consider returning the phone and purchasing one intended for AT&T (or an unlocked phone) instead.

How to set up Guest Network, while Airport Extreme is connected to Satellite Receiver

How to set up Guest Network, while Airport Extreme is connected to Satellite Receiver?

Depending on how you have your AirPort Extreme configured to work with the satellite receiver, it may or may not be possible to enable the Guest Network function.
We will need to check some settings on your Mac or PC, but in order to do that, we need to know what operating system you are using on your computer.
If you have a Mac, click the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the computer screen, then click About This Mac. Post back with the OS X Version number that you see there.

Can someone please just tell me how to set up a network?

Okay so here is the problem. I have an iMac G4 and I am getting a new intel one. I have an airport connected to a 2wire gateway. I would like to setup a network for file sharing, printer sharing, the works. I don't care about using the airport extreme but I just want to be able to find a step by step process on how to do this. I cannot find this information anywhere. I feel like it is something I know how to do that I just forgot so sorry if this is a stupid question that is posted everywhere but can someone please just tell me how to set it up? Oh yea, I also wanted to use this network to migrate my old mac to my new mac. Thanks.

Mac OS X 10.5 Help- Sharing your computer with others on your network
OS X 10.5- Using printer sharing with different versions of Mac OS X
Printer Sharing from MacOSX
Setting up a local Ethernet network
Equipment needed:
Cable/DSL modem: usually supplied by the ISP
Gateway/Router: at least a 4-port router, but you can get them with more ports if you need them. (Alternatively, you can get a switching hub to provide additional ports.)
CAT 5 Ethernet cables: one cable is needed for each device connected to the router plus one to connect the router to the cable/DSL modem.
1. Connect the Cable/DSL modem to the router's WAN port using an Ethernet cable (CAT 5 for 10/100.)
2. Connect each computer to the router's LAN ports using Ethernet cables. If you have network printers, etc. connect them to a LAN port on the router. If the router doesn't have enough ports, then you will need to purchase one with more ports or connect a switching hub to the router.
3. Now, for each Mac open its Network preference pane. Select the Built-in Ethernet port for configuration. In the TCP/IP configuration window set the connection/configuration to DHCP from the dropdown menu. Set your Location dropdown menu to Automatic and the Show dropdown menu to Built-in Ethernet.
4. Shut everything off. First, turn on the Cable/DSL modem and wait for the connect lights to indicate it has connected to the ISP. Next, turn on the router and wait to see if the Cable/DSL modem's communication status light starts to flicker. Also, if there is a status light on the router it should show a connection. Last, power up the computer. If all is well the TCP/IP control panel or Network pref pane should indicate an IP has been obtained from the router, usually in the 192.168.nnn.nnn range. If it's 169.xxx.xxx.xxx then you don't really have a connection.
5. If you have network printers connected each printer will have to be assigned its own unique IP address in the router's address range (usually 192.168.nnn.nnn.) Assign the printer(s) IP addresses above the number of computers that will be connected but within the router's DHCP address assignment range. Consult the router's documentation for that information. Consult the printer manual for how to assign an IP address to the printer. When you install the printer driver and/or Add the printer you will add it as an IP printer or LPR printer and use the IP address you assigned to the printer.
Most of this information can also be found by selecting Mac Help from the Finder's Help menu and searching on the appropriate term, e.g., sharing, network, printing.
