Looking for WiFi.

Hi. I've searched the board and haven't found an answer to my issue, so please forgive me if this has been asked before.
I have an 8330, Verizon is my carrier and I have an unlimited data plan. The wireless coverage in my home is virtually non-existent; emails come in but any web surfing is painfully slow. I have wi-fi in the home and would like to tap into it, but have not been able to figure out how to set it up on the BB. Another thread talked about going into options, advanced, and changing the browser selection to 'hotspot browser' but I don't have that choice available. On my phone it reads 'internet browser' and there's no other choices to select.
Is wi-fi available on my 8330? If yes, how do I set it up?
TIA,
Chris

Sorry, the 8330 does NOT have WiFi capabilities.
This is something that a wee bit of research up front would have discovered...
The 8530 does, if you can get it... 9650 does also.

  • I am looking for wifi adapter for my MacBook Pro(Mavericks 10.9.2)

    i am looking for wifi adapter for my MacBook Pro(Mavericks 10.9.2). Somebody help me to find compatible Wifi adapter for my MacBook.

    Thanks Bob! i already opened this search page but i didn't found anything compatible to mavericks!!!!
    Then you are not looking very well. The first one in the list has compatible wifi adapters. Mavericks compatable wifi adapters are included in most of the results from my link.
    If there are not enough results included in the list try modifying my search term. Try this instead:
    https://www.google.com/search?q=usb+wifi+adapter+for+mavericks
    There are dozens/hundreds listed.

  • Does iPhone transmit when looking for WiFi?

    Hi and thanks for reading,
    probably this is an obviou question since it is related to the basic of wifi hardware but I did not manage to find anything official on the internet.
    When I put on WiFi feature on my iPhone/iPad, it starts searching for WiFi networks every 3-5 seconds.
    I am wondering if, during a WiFi search, the searching device transmit any data packet or if it stays all the time in RX mode.
    If you can help me, a link to an article/paper about that would be much appreciated.
    Many thanks.
    Regards,
    Luca

    There are many programs that will trash a TX - those that aren't specifically written for an NVFS type Palm. Here's a list: http://palmfacts.com/devices/tx/software.php
    Did you HotSync the information from a previous Palm to your TX? That will surely scramble it! You'll need to do another Hard Reset, rename your /BACKUP folder to something else, and then do a HotSync...

  • Looking for wifi TV with simple browser capability

    Does a HD wifi TV exist with simple browser capability? IE, I want to surf the net on the TV or connect it via IP to my security web server. I need a browser to do this.
    Thx

    Sorry i typed out a whole lengthy post and it was taken off as it had links to AMZ because they had a chart of features for TVs.
    Basically the Sony gt1 series (google TVs) have a built in browser.
    High end samsungs(PNxxD8000, UNxxD8000/7900/7000/6300) also the 8000 series has a QWERTY lcd digital remote that comes with the TV.
    And Some of the higher end LGs have a built in browser (most have the "wand" remote to go with it.

  • 5 won't stop looking for network after successful connection

    iPhone5 won't stop looking for wifi network after successful connection. Told by tier2 support it is software issue. Complete reset didn't work
    Thanks

    You do have to unmount any Network Drives when/before moving to another location.
    I'm thinking the APPs that don't work right have some pref on the non-existing network drive/cpu, for instance, if they automatically open the last doc used.

  • HT1338 my mac book pro is constantly "looking for networks" while connected using my home network and other wifi systems. how can i stop it?

    Why is my Mac Book constantly "looking for networks" while i am using wifi?

    If it is constantly searching for networks every five seconds or so, then it is the bluetooth - wifi problem discussed on other threads. I find that system preferences > network and clicking at the bottom on the 'Show wi-fi status in menu bar' button to switch it off, and then back onto the menu bar, solves the problem. Sometimes on waking I lose wi-fi completely and have to reload, but that's infrequent.
    Hopefully Apple will come up with a solution soon.

    my wife and i share a computer. when she looks for her info in her cloud acct on the desktop my info appears in her account. Cannot understand why her info from her phone would appear to be nowhere and mine is in her account. Help us understand this please?

    On the shared computer click on System Preferences -> iCloud -> Account Details verify that each individual account is configured correctly. By default, the Apple ID used to install the computer the first time is used for all accounts on the computer, unless it is changed.

    Any error messages?

    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. already suggested
    - Power off and then back on the router

  • I can print from my macbook pro using airport express usb connected printer, however my iPad is looking for an airprint printer.  Can I direct the iPad to the usb connected printer.  Both macbook and iPad confirm a wifi connection through the airport exp.

    You will need to install an App like Print Central on the iPad to try to print to the printer. It will allow you to print to most printers. Check with their support folks if you need more info.

    When you see an exclamation point in the Wi-Fi menu, from the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
    Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts. You may get a warning that Wi-Fi is not available, that you're too far from the base station, or that you're using the wrong password.
    Assuming that you've ruled out those possibilities, click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane and authenticate, if necessary. From the Location menu at the top of the window, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.

  • My wife was looking for me last Friday morning with the app find my phone.  The app showed that I was not where I said I was and she does not believe me.  How is the explanation for this mistake, I know where I was at but she is very upset.

    Please help!!! My wife has a Samsung galaxy 4s, and she was looking for me last Friday (09/19/2014) morning with the find my phone app.  I have a iPhone 5S and the app placed me in a location about 5 or 6 miles away from where I was actually at.  My wife if very up set and thinks I am lying to her.  Is there a way to get here the proper information so she does not have to feel like I am a lier.  This is a big problem and I need help. I can get video but it is very  expensive and takes a court order. I truly need help with this I have kids and this is problem is destroying our marriage.
    Thanks
    Greg Soileau

    How was your wife using the Find My iPhone app from a Samsung phone? But, that question aside, your wife should educate herself on how GPS works, especially on a cell phone. GPS signals can be interfered with by trees, buildings, clouds. Off by several miles would be unusual, though.
    If your wife is tracking your cell phone and not believing what you tell her, you may want to consider counseling as there are some very serious issues that go way beyond the technology.
    Best of luck.

  • Why is my wifi looking for a network all the time after working fine for over a year?

    My wifi is connected but it's running slow, it drops completely, netflix runs so slow than it drops..etc. I've had the cable people here twice, once I updated my speed to more than doubled my speed and then I bought a very expensive router. Why does my computer wifi keep looking for networks when its already connected? Also, I've notice that my computer is acting like I've had it for 10 years and I've only had for 1.5 yrs. It's slow! It crashes! I have to sign in twice! It takes for ever to load, then it falls asleep after only a few mins even when its plugged in with full power. I'm so sick of this mac! I'm ready to run over it with my mini van and go back to HP for good!
    Oh and the screen is unstable! willy nilly all over the place!
