Nokia 6230 loses home network

I have had this problem now for over 6 months. I am with Vodafone and the network just drops out for texts but the worst thing is, I dont know its done it until People ring me to let me know. I then have to do a manual network search and the texts come flooding in.
Vodafone told me over 3 months ago that they had network problems but I would have thought this would have been sorted by now
So its now got me thinking that it may be a setting somewhere on the phone itself
Has anyone got any ideas please? Its driving me nuts!!! (and i missing loads of texts)

Hi swift47
Having just read your post it doesn't sound like a fault with your phone.
As you're aware Vodafone has been experiencing problems with customers receiving text messages. As we know how important this is I'd like you know that we want to get this fixed as quickly as possible and to make sure that we fix it for good.
I can see from your post that after performing a manual roam your text messages are coming through. I'd recommend that you continue do this throughout the day in the short term as this is clearly working for you (even though I know it's not ideal).
I appreciate this is frustrating but I'd like to reassure you that Vodafone is currently implementing a fix gradually which is around 75% complete with the remaining 25% due to be completed by the end of the month.
The reason for the gradual implementation is to enable our engineers to fully monitor this and make sure that the fix is working and doesn't affect any other services.
If you need any further information you might want to visit Vodafone's eForum through this link http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/index.php?act=idx which will provide you with quick updates on the text messaging problems which our customers are already talking about and that we're constantly updating as soon as new and up to date information is available.
Hope this helps and if you need anything else don't hesitate to post again.

IPad loses home network settings from time to time

IPad 2 loses home wireless Internet from time even though settings still indicate connected...I just click forget this network and sign in with pass word and it connects ok. Is there a setting to keep IPad from disconnecting from home network while I am in the house?

Try #5.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Why does the iPhone lose home network connection?

My new iPhone 5 keeps losing my home network connection. Any advice? I've tried resetting network settings, turning the phone off and on again and turning the router off and on again. Thanks.

I'm looking into that possibility.......have a cordless phone in the office, a PC, cell phones, etc. Will clear them out and recheck. The maddening thing is that the iBook is totally bulletproof even in that environment. Why would the iMac be having these issues, but not the iBook? Is Airport Extreme more robust, or that much better than Airport?
Even now, the iMac shows no network - yet I'm writing this on the iBook right next to it, and it's had no network interruption whatsoever.
Do you have any knowledge of those "error" notations from the syslog? Could they be pointing to anything else?
Thanks much.....

Nokia E72 WLAN Home Network Issues After SW Update...

Hi,
I just updated my software recently to the most recent update, and until doing so, I was able to connect to my home WLAN network. Now that I've updated the software, when I try to access the internet from my network, I get an "Invalid server" error on my browser. I have attempted to delete the access point, but I don't know if this is the right idea, and, so far, it has not resolved the situation.
I can, however, still connect to my provider's internet services, and proceed as normal.
Can anybody help me with this issue?
Thanks.

@katelouise
Although you would need to backup essential data first, try resetting device to "Out of box" state by keying in *#7370# followed by 12345 (default Nokia lock code unless altered by user); satisfy yourself that WLAN access working before restoring contacts and messages, but you may need to avoid restoring "Settings"!
Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5

Mac Air loses home network SSID

I have a MacBook Air that occasionally can't find my home wifi (SSID). The SSID of every network in the local apartment block displays but not mine. It doesn't show in iStumbler either. My iMac can see it and connect to it OK. If I connect manually it works but that's a pest.
So is there any way that a 'saved' SSID can become masked at boot up as seems to be happening?

The loss of connection to wifi after sleep is nothing to do with the TC at a guess.. but typical issue with sleep and wireless.
See the methods of repair for this that Tesserax has prepared.
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3411
I presume the upgrade was to Mavericks.. it does have some network issues.
I would certainly use all SMB naming. Mavericks now uses SMB network protocol by default.
So SMB names are not like apple names.
They are short.. keep to less than 20 characters.. less than 10 even better.
No spaces and pure alphanumeric.
Use only WPA2 Personal security with a 10-20 character purely alphanumeric password.
Finally it can be worthwhile using fixed wireless channels.. test say 11, 6, 1 or whatever you have available in Russia. Same on 5ghz use whatever channels are available but try a low one if possible.. eg 40 and a high one like 149.
I strongly recommend you setup the TC this way.. and use separate names for 2.4 and 5ghz at least until you get it sorted.
eg.. TC name.. TC
2.4ghz name.. TC24ghz
5ghz name.. TC5ghz
Then as per Tesserax, clear out all the old names. So you have a clean slate and only use the TC on one band.. try each and see if it is reliable.

Nokia 6230 loses connection with PcSuite using DKU...

I got tired of trying to solve connectivity problems
with the bluetooth device and bought a new cable.
It seems that neither the Bluetooth or the Cable can transfer more than a few MegaBytes in one shot ("Connection to mobile phone lost").
I have also upgraded to Pc Suite 6.83, still no luck.
I'm Running Windows XP Home Edition SP2.
Suggestions?

I'm transferring the files via File Manager (PcSuite) or
using the Nokia driver itself. I'm transferring mp3 files, around 12-13 each time (a full disc). The mp3 files are usually around 2-3mb each...
Thanks.

IPad3 loses connection to home network and same happens to laptops.

I purchased the new IPad a week ago. Since then, I often lose connection to home network. Cannot join network unless I power off and on the modem/router. This also hapens every morning. The same is now happening with our wireless laptops. Never had any problems all these years until the iPad was introduced to our network. Our Internet provider confirmed that modem/router protocols were set per advice from Apple Support and they did additional tweaking but problem persists. I am thinking of getting a new modem and router but wonder if it is worth it. Has anyone had similar problems where their other devices are having the same connection issues as the iPad? Thanks.

IPhone Recognises All Wifi Networks Bar my Home Network

I have recently purchased a 32GB iPhone 4 (not 4S), and I have encountered the following problem: It will recognise most wifi networks promptly and without issue, but it does not recognise the one I use at home. Obviously this is a quite serious issue, as it is here that I will do most of my web browsing on my phone, and a stable wifi is needed to download apps. So without this I really have no recourse.
The problem in more detail:
I have been doing some research and, although some people have similar issues, my problem is unique. First, my phone does not even list the network in the wifi tab under 'choose a network'; second, I cannot add it by inputting the information for the network manually (it says 'Could not find the network 'X'); and third, it is not the case that this is a 'new' problem. I got the phone three days ago and it has never been able to recognise my home network. Apple and my service provider give me no help as it connects to all other networks I have encountered thus far.
All of these points lead me to believe that it is a problem particularly with my Network. However, it is not a hardware issue. In my household I have two desktop iMacs (both new) connected to this network, my three year old laptop, and two iPads (one first and one second generation). I have never had a problem with recognising the network or connecting to it on any of these devices; only the iPhone.
Additional information:
-This problem occured both under the operating system my phone came with (4. something) as well as the latest upgrade (5.0.1)
-The phone does have a 'Wi-Fi Address in system preferences
-The phone is indeed brand new
-The router I am using is a Cisco DPQ3925
-The channel width I am using is 20MHz
-I have my 'standard channel' set to 'Auto' (changing this makes me lose the network on all devices)
-The network is set to WPA2 Personal (not WEP, which seems to be causing some people problems)
-The SSID is indeed being broadcast
-This problem occurs regardless of how far I stand from the router
Attempted Solutions
-I have done a full restore to no avail
-I have restarted network settings on my iphone many times
-I have tried resetting the router with no luck
-I have tried turning on/off cellular data several times
-I have tried turning on/off location services several times
As mentioned, I assume the problem has something to do with the iPhone recognising the network settings. Some have suggested interference with other devices. I unfortunately have little experience fiddling with router settings, so I'll need to be walked through if this is the issue.
I eagerly await any possible solutions you would offer, and I am quite grateful in advance. I must say that this problem is very vexing. I have had my previous Nokia 3210 for over 10 years, and was quite resistant to upgrading. I am a Mac fanatic, and always want the newest models of PCs, but I have long resisted updating my phone for fear of problems just like this one. Please prove my phone troglodytism wrong!

I have an iPhone 4 and I do not have trouble with my wi-fi. I thought I would take the time to look at my router settings and see if there is something that I could find that differs. I use a Linksys WRT160N router, so that is one difference to start with, but that shouldn't be that big of a deal. I am using WPA2 Personal for security with a channel width of 20 MHz. Is there a possibility that you have MAC filtering on that would be preventing your device from connecting? Have you checked the Cisco website to ensure you have the most current software for the router? Which network mode are you using, B, G, N, Mixed? Are you able to connect to any other wi-fi network anywhere, a public one like McDonald's, Starbucks, your work? This would explain whether the wi-fi is good or there is a hardware problem with the iPhone.

Nokia 6230 PC Suite Bluetooth Problem

Hello, i need a help with my mobile....
I am using:
Windows XP SP 2
PC Suite 6.7
Nokia 6230
CNet Bluetooth USB Dongle
My pc can see the phone but when i tried to connect it said that cannot authorizate, but i see that when it tried to connect... the windows XP saw the phone and make a connection with the phone to share internet.
Please Help me...
Sorry if a wrote something wrong, i don't speak english. I speak spanish.
Thanks.

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.

Need help choosing how to extend my existing home network to my detached garage?

I have done as much research as possible on this scenario but cannot seem to match the ideal solution with my wants. Perhaps I simply just do not understand networking as well as I thought I did. Either way, any helpful information or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Objective: Extend my wireless network to my detached garage.
My current ISP provider is Time Warner Cable. I have RoadRunner Extreme, which in my area gives consistent speeds of 50 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload when I am connected via ethernet cable. When I upgraded to the "Extreme" package i found out I was forced to use their Motorola SB6580 ... its a DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem + wireless router. I was able to access the Motorola's setup options on the internet and I disabled the wireless function. This has allowed me to use my Time Capsule as the primary router to provide wireless access on my home network. I have not had any issues with this setup and is my preferred way to operate.
I have recently moved my home office to the 2nd story of my detached garage and need to extend my wireless network to meet the demands of all my gear. I have decided to achieve this goal by going with one of the following 3 options:
1.) enable the wireless function on the motorola modem making it the primary router. move my time capsule out to the office and use it in bridge mode. However I do not think I understand bridge mode correctly. I thought the secondary router (in this case my TC) in bridge mode needed to be connected w/ an ethernet cable at all times to enable this feature? If I understand similar networking discussions I will lose the ethernet ports with this option? If this isnt called Bridge mode once i take away the ethernet cable what is it "technically" called?
2.) buy a 2nd airport extreme base station and create the same type of wireless network extension setup. The difference here is I would leave my motorola's wireless features disabled, use 2 apple products that speak apples to apples wirelessly and relieve myself of all the headaches involved with a neopolitan setup. This seems like the obvious choice b/c Apple products are much more user friendly, but I dont want to spend the $200 on a new router if I can achieve a comparable setup by just enabling the equipment I already have.
3.) use either of these 2 scenarios above & go buy a 150' ethernet cable to join them together. if this is the case wouldnt a $50 hub suffice on the end of the cable? I dont necessarily need to have wireless, just reliable connectivity. I can access the existing wireless network now, but download speeds are not great and things really start to slow down when i have multiple clients connected. I would rather not have to drill through exterior walls, bury conduit and install learn how to install data wall plates, but i will if this is the pros far out way the cons.
Current modem/router placement: if standing @ the front door of my 1 story house facing out towards the street my motorola modem/router is in the front right-hand corner of the house.
Distance location of the detached garage office setup: if standing @ my front door my my work area is in the far back left corner of my property. it is approx 175' from the router and on the 2nd story of the garage. I said 150' cable earlier b/c i could relocate the router to a bedroom on the opposite end of the house, however this would eleminate the current wired status of the items connected to it and I would prefer to keep them wired in.
clients connected in the house: (4) apple tv's; Roku; Xbox; Wii; Playstation 3; (2) Lenovo laptops; iPad; (2) Blackberry's; (2) iPhones; iPod touch; (2) wireless netowrk printers; (2) smart tv's ... a handful of these are currently wired into the time capsule now which provides an uninterupted viwing experience for the MLB package. This of course trumps all opportunity costs involved with moving the router. There is nothing more frustrating than a screen buffering in the botton of the 9th inning after you've sat there for 3 hours.
clients connected in the office: (2) 27" imacs; apple tv; iPad; network printer; Wii; Harmony Link universal remote; Mac Book Pro ...
I have approx 5TB of digital media that is shared over the network via shared iTunes libraries that I would like to access as well. iCloud helps with all of our household gadgets as far as acessibility but with all the backups going on simutaneously it also creates headaches when you need the throughput. I need to do a better job of managing those settings. nonetheless, I would like some guidance on the best way to extend my current netowrk, suggestions for better scenarios i did not mention and thus am probably not aware of and any networking 101 schooling if it doesnt sound like i understand the way bridge mode/network extension works. sorry for the long post and thank you for your time & help.

Ethernet beats all other solutions hands down..
A single ethernet connection from wherever is the closest point in the house to the garage office... wins. You can plug a router working as AP and switch or pure switch on to it. Get a cabler in to do the job.. and they can probably figure it out and do the whole job whilst you scatch your head.. yes you will pay for it.. but a cabler knows how to do it. And most likely leave the inside network exactly as it is. Since office is important to be reliable.. there is one and one only reliable method.. ethernet.
If the garage and house are on one electrical circuit.. which is doubtful if it is a separate building then EOP adapters can often work well.. They do not handle earth leakage protection, breakers (rather than fuses) or meters at all well.. but if they are simply all connected to power.. behind the same meter and using old fashioned fuse box.. EOP rated at 200mbps or some now are 500mbps can work reasonably well. Speed about the same as wireless at its best but if it works when installed will generally not change with the weather, moon, and wind direction which wireless is liable to do.
Wireless bridging.. hmm avoid if possible. For reliable connection no.. apple products can do wireless repeater but as you mentioned that turns off the ethernet ports except for the Express.. that is the only unit you can use as a bridge and plug a switch into it. Why Apple why??
So if you want to bridge two points by wireless buy specialised wireless bridge.. that means an AP in the house plugged into the existing network.. and AP unit perhaps on the outside of the garage.. or in windows if you have a window in the house that looks at a window in your office. Look at products from companies like ubiquiti.. they are not too expensive but professional equipment and designed for precisely this kind of work.
Hence the reliability is dramatically better than domestic stuff.. and will require a lot less work to maintain the link.
Conclusion.. wire it.
Unless you rent the house.. an investment in ethernet cabling install once properly and forget .. beats every other solution even if it costs x5 as other solutions.

For four years Ive been unable to use my home network as anticipated. I have ADSL connection with O2, airport extreme, three expresses, two minis 10.6.8 and 10.7.3, and two pros 10.6.8 and 10.7.3, and a cinema thbolt display. Id like to use bbc iplayer.

I am unable to stream video and I lose connection frequently. Ive tried it using wireless connection and with ethernet. Ive tried using the O2 router (%series) as a modem for the extreme, Ive tried using the O2 without the extreme - not poss to extend network but MUCH faster, and Ive tried using a variety of other routrers and modems. My flat is 10m x 6m, there are no other wireless devices within or immediately adjoining except for my wireless landline phone that I have changed three times. Every single piece of my home network has been to the genius bar at least three times and the entire network with all devices has been taken twice. Genius bar have found either no fault or no explanation. Applecare dont seem able to tie their own shoe laces and have been worse than useless, suggesting things like checking a plug fuse (good advice but not relevant). I met a chap socially who turned out to be an apple employee home networking specialist. He offered to look at it and came to my flat. I quote him now: "F**k me, its just not supposed to do tha., Theres something seriously wrong with the system. It's an Apple problem completely". However, despite repeated requests I have not been invited to escalate the issue beyond the genius bar. Enen though everything possible is apple (they dont make a modem for ADSL??), all I get from them is it must be the fault of something else.
PS Ive had my O2 connection checked tens of times and paid for a bt engineer to check my line 4 times.
PPS The thunderbolt display was sold to me after I refused one on the grounds that the location of my mini was more than 2 metres from the display, and the salesperson reassured me that the thunderbolt connection was universally available and that would have no problem connecting the display to my mini 5 metres away.
I may well not be too bright when it comes to computers, but with their attitude of there being NO SUCH THING AS A BAD/FAULTY APPLE PRODUCT, ONLY SILLY CUSTOMERS WHO HAVENT WORKED OUT HOW TO USE THEM YET, I wish I will soon see their brand will rot in commercial oblivion ****. I have focused this on home netwrking but that is the tip of the iceberg. However, having invested so much of my life and my money in what I have, please can any of you good people out there show me the foolish error of my simple ways?

Running I-Tunes on my home network

OK...I'm clearly more stupid than I thought...so I think I need some expert advice here.
In brief here's what I've got going.
I've upgraded all of our home computers this week and set up a home network.
Currently, in our home we have set up a PowerBookG4, two IMac's, and a MacMini. It's all connected through a new AppleExtreme Base station.
Swearing never to lose data again like I did last week, I've set up a InfrantNAS Raid 2Terabyte server down in the basement on which to back up all our hard drives. It will also be the repository for all of our family photos, and our 100+gigs of music (which I had thankfully backed up onto an external before the crash).
OK...getting to the point. So I want no music taking space on any hard drives in the house, which should help them run better.
So..all the music is now on the server.
I go to the MacMini (connected to our PlasmaTV) and open I-Tunes. I go to PREFERENCES > ADVANCED >ITUNES Music Foler Location.
I then Browse, and go to the file on the server labelled MUSIC in which I have all the music folders stored. No problem finding and selecting the folder. I click OK, and expect that after I quit and restart I-Tunes, that all of the songs, album titles, etc...will show up in ITunes just like it used to do when it was all on my hard drive itself. I just assumed that if I did that on all 4 of my computers here that my ITunes screen would automatically show all the music.
Obviously I'm doing something wrong...so rather than spend the rest of my life trying to figure it out, I thought I'd ask you guys for help.
Open to any ideas, as long as they don't move files to the hard drive on my MacMini, which they wouldn;t all fit on anyway.

When you get this it's usually due to a conflict either with other Samba versions installed (manually) or because OS X's native Windows File Sharing is enabled.
The console.app logs may provide further info.
SMBUp is just a front-end to Samba so if Samba fails to open the problem is usually with Samba daemons starting up or the program not being able to installthe startup scripts.
In some situations SMBUp may not be able to figure out if Samba is running. In these cases you nee to check the console.app program to see what error is showing up.

N95 Wifi, home network and hidden access points

Hello-
Just picked up a N95 and having some problems. First, my home network doesn't broadcast a SSID. I stumbled across the home network option and was able to configure it. However, it's never an option when I need an internet connection; e.g., it never shows up in the wlan list.
So, how do I congigure a hidden access point so I can use it? The user guide says you should be able to do it manually, but doesn't go into any details.
Secondly, exactly what is the home network setting for and why is it separate from the other wlan settings?
Thanks,
Jay

Jay,
I too have a hidden network (SSID not broadcast), the N95 seems to have a problem with this. It may or may not show up on the active standby screen (on my Voda N95, it shows up when I take my sim out!).
To configure your accesss point :-
Tools / Settings / Connection / Access Points
then Options / New access point
Connection name
(enter a name, whatever you want to call it)
Data bearer
=wireless LAN
WLAN network name
(enter your SSID here)
Network Status
(public or hidden)
WLAN network mode
(Infrastructure or ad-hoc. If you're using a router, infracstructure should be the one you want)
WLAN security mode
(Open, WEP, 802.1x or WPA2. Check your router)
WLAN security settings
WPA/WPA2
EAP or Pre-shared key (consult your router)
EAP plug-in settings or Pre-shared key
(which one you get depends on what you set above)
WPA2 only mode
(leave alone)
Having done all this it still won't show on the active-standy screen (at least it doesn't on mine) in the WLAN section BUT if you know try and surf the web it should ask which access point you want to use - assuming you've got it set to 'always ask'. What this seems to do is only list the connections that it can find (i.e if you've got a 'Starbucks' and a 'home' connection defined, it'll only show 'home' at home and 'Starbucks' when you're getting your latte. The standby screen may show, how to decribe it, a four leaf clover near to the battery level indicator, this is the indication that it's either found or connected to your wireless lan.
I think the 'Home netw.' option is for use with the Home Media Server application supplied on the CD. I haven't tried it so can't confirm for sure.
Hope this helps,

N80 home network and WWW

I have recently purchased an n80 and I am trying to get the home networking and internet functional through my wirless router. So far I have had little success. I have enabled upnp on my d-link router/modem . I have installed The simple center software on my laptop and uploaded files to share. I have setup an access point on my n80 and I have enabled sharing. The shared folders on the n80 have also been selected to share all files. The simple center software has been allowed to operate through xp's firewall. THe only thing I am not sure about is the port forwarding on the router. I have a trigger port and a public port in the applications gateway section of my router . I have entered the ports listed in the simple centers setting section (1900,49153,49154,49152). I have these numbers in both the trigger port and the public port on the TCP protocol.
Occasionally I can connet to the internet. However when I close the connection down and try to start it up again sometimes it does not work , showing 'unable to perform operation'. The only way to re-establish the connection is to power the router down then backup(reset).
The same goes for the home networking. I had no success a all on the first day of trying. Went to work. When I came back tried it again and it worked perfectlly ?? Now on the third day it is working ocassionally.
Anyone else had simmilar problems ? If so any soultions would be appreciated ! The phone itself seems to be pretty glitcy. And battery life isnt the best either. Apart from that eh !

Forget that - just sussed it out...
I'm using v3.0617.0.6 (03-05-2006) RM-92, Nokia N80 (31.01)
I can't seem to get anything using the browser - I constantly get "Out of memory" errors, even when trying to use GPRS.
It moans something about "packet data" and then bombs out...

My iphone 5 does not remember the password of my home network. Well this is ot the case with my ipad. The wifi gets disconnected every 2 minutes. Its not any problem with my wifi router as my ipad and other devices work fine. So how do i fix this problem?

Well my iphone 5 does not remember my home network. This is not a problem with the wifi router as the ipad works absolutely fine. The wifi loses it connection in just 2 minutes. So could you please fix this problem.

Not unless the modem is causing a problem.
What you want to do is get it to work reliably over Ethernet first, then tackle wifi. Power off the modem. On your macbook, delete the Ethernet configuration and the Wifi configuration. Power up the modem, then connect the mac via Ethernet. Create the new Ethernet configuration and see if you can connect.
