Nokia N86 problem connecting to BT Home Hub

I am having problems connecting to my BT home hub with my new Nokia N86. I have used the WLAN wizard and entered the WEP code but when I go to connect I get the message 'Gateway could not be found'. I have been using it without any problems with my Nokia N95
Can anyone help please?
Solved!

Have you looked at the hubs log to see if it gives a reason for refusing the N86?
It's a while since I had the original hub so can't tell you exactly where to look.
You may also want to ask your question on forum below as it's more likely the hub that needs it's settings changed than the phone:

  • Problem connecting wirelessly with home hub 3.

    Kodak gave me advice onthis problem. Entered security key in upper case instead of lower and it solved the problem . No help from BT on this.

    What john46 says is quite correct, also Kodak would give you NO support for setting up the Home Hub..
    Thats not to say you would not have been given help on these forums if you had a problem connecting your printer and if we could not help,at least we might have been able to point you in the right direction.

    Make sure you delete any existing connection info first, that the phone may have remembered.

  • I cant get my macbook (2008 model running 10.6.8) to connect to the home hub 5

    to connect to the home hub 5 it connects eventually but is extremely tempermental... does anyone have a fix that doesnt involve messing around with the home hub settings...
    for further notes, my dads macbook (same model but running 10.7) connects and works fine, as does the 2 windows desktop computers and laptops we have, my xbox and play station 3 consoles, my iphone 5c, ipad mini, my mums iphone 5, and my dads and sisters samsung galaxy note phones.... even as i type this i can kind of see the problem being with my macbook rather than anything else.... but if someone could give a solution that would be great =] 

    Howdy there SwipeatronSparks,
    If your MacBook Pro still has issues when connecting to your hub, I would recommend the troubleshooting for the symptoms you are seeing in the following article, named:

  • I am having problems connecting to my home wifi with my iphone4s

    Over the past couple of weeks I have experienced a problem connecting to my home wifi service (Sky) with my iphone4s although my laptop connects fine. My phone also picks up the wifi at my place of work. At home when in close proximity to the router (netgear) on the phone the network name appears in the wifi settings but on the wifi networks page it does not get a tick against the name (wheel just keeps revolving). I have taken it back to the retailer (Vodaphone) and they recommend it be sent back to Apple (Liverpool or Manchester) as they consider it a hardware fault. I will be without the phone for probably 1-2 weeks and I use it within my working environment regularly.
    Has any one any ideas?
    jd
    ps. If I go down the route of 'forget this Network' will I need to do any resets on the router as I cant find the username and password when I enter my IP address for the router.

  • This past month I have been having problems connecting to my home wireless connection. Previously I had no problems whatsoever. I have tried unplugging the wireless router, turning off the wirless airport, deleting the network name from my list of server

    This past month I have been having problems connecting to my home wireless connection. I have a MacBook Pro OSX Version 10.6.8. Previously I had no problems whatsoever. I have tried unplugging the wireless router, turning off the wirless airport, deleting the network name from my list of servers and trying to reconnect this way. These methods have worked temporarily, but the same problem keeps coming back. Most of the time my personal wireless connection does not even come up among the list of available networks. My fellow flatmates have PCs and both of them are able to connect to the network without problem.
    The router is a d-link model DIR-615. I am not tech savy, so if any other information need to be provided in order to better understand my situation, please let me know.
    Please help me!

    If I open the list of networks in a window it says "connection timeout," but if I just select it from the drop down it tries for awhile and then stops with no prompt. When I try to run network diagnostics it says "sorry, we can't connect to the internet" (or some solution-free variation of that)

  • TS1398 im having real problems connecting to my home wifi, it keeps coming up saying unable to join even though the password is correct, this has been ever since i updated software to ios6

    Im having real problems connecting to my home wifi from my i phone 4s, it just keeps saying unable to join even though the password is correct,
    I have tried resetting my network settings but to no avail,
    yesterday I reset all settings then it actually worked, however today the problem started again so I repeated the reset but it still isn't working
    This has only started happening since i upgraded software to ios6
    Please help

    Here is what I would do:
    Shutdown all computers connected to the router.
    Power off the router.
    Power off the modem (cable or DSL).
    Wait 30 seconds.
    Power on the modem. Ensure all lights are lit and the modem is online.
    Power on the router. Ensure it's communicating to the modem.
    Turn on your Macbook Pro first (the one experiencing the issue. Check it's connection. If it's still having issues, removed the networks it can attach to, turn off WiFi; then turn WiFi back on and reconnect to your WiFi network.
    Turn on other Macs in household. Check their connections.
    Sometimes "rebooting" the modem and router fixes connectivity issues.

  • Nokia lumia 520 won't connect to bt home hub

    Keep getting a message saying there's no connection when I try and connect to my home bt hub I can see the connection and I can type in my pass code which I've checked and double checked is right other phones and tablets are connected fine but I can't get this phone to connect at all I've downloaded the wifi app too and still no joy but I can join bt fon an unsecured wifi but I want to connect to my home network when I'm home
    Any ideas?

    "Forget" any connection you have for your homehub on the phone and restart the phone. While it's restarting carry out a factory reset of the homehub by pressing a pin into the recess button on the rear for about 20 seconds. When they both restart, scan for networks on the phone and locate your homehub. Click on it and enter the wireless passkey found on the homehub label.

    Did you set it up correctly?
    If you use a different router with ADSL, then you need to make sure that the authentication is set to PPPoA.

  • Wifi connection issues with Home Hub 5

    Hi can any body help because I am starting to get very frustrated with the Home Hub 5 and it's wireless connection.
    infinity 2 was installed at my house in the beginning of September, everything worked Ok for three weeks then for no apparent reason the hub kicked out all of my wireless devices (phones, kids iPods, tablets etc) at 6:45 one morning. When I got home from work I rang BT and was told to perform a Pin reset. This seemed to work but less tham 48 hours later at exactly the same time in the morning the hub kicked out all of my devices again, this time I just pressed the restart button on the top of the hub and everything reconnected but the Wifi range within my house had dropped. A few days later the hub kicked all my devices out again (each time it has done this the light on the hub has remained blue showing it is supposedly working OK)
    One evening this week the hub of its own accord cycled through all the colours of lights indicating problems and that it was restarting. Today at 10:15 the hub kicked all my Wifi devices out again. I have contacted BT every time this has happened and told them about the poor range of the Wifi signal.
    I do not want to be restarting/resetting my Hub every couple of weeks i need a permanent solution.
    One of the reasons I switched from TalkTalk to BT when fibre became available was the fact that the Home Hub 5 was supposed to be the best provided router by any of the networks, being the only one that is an AC class router. The thing costs £130 if you want to by one. Quite frankly the £60 TP-Link dual band router I bought when I was with TalkTalk had a better range and was more stable. I would switch back to that if I knew BT's router settings (but they like to keep that a secret)
    I really am beginning to regret switching from TalkTalk. Please someone restore my faith in BT.
    Sorry for the lengthy rant but I hope you can understand why I've ranted for so long.
    Nick

    Hi imjolly
    Sorry its taken a while to reply to your post.
    I wanted to try BT's latest attempt at a solution before i tried your idea.
    Since your reply the Home Hub 5 has dropped the Wifi connection to my devices another three times.
    The second time less than 30hours after BT's so called fix, which was to make sure the 5Ghz channel was not syncing with the 2.4Ghz channel. Tonight it went again and BT's response was to take the router out of smart channel selection and manually select channel 9,6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 36,40,44 or 48 on 5Ghz. Well I havent even bothered with that, if the prats at BT would look at their records they would see they have already suggested that.
    This HH5 is the most unreliable piece of garbage i have ever had the misfortune to use. WHY OH WHY did I leave TalkTalk
    I have tonight tried your solution. Fingers crossed that this works.

  • Problem with password in home hub manager

    Hi
    I have a pc and a laptop connected wirelessly to homehub 3. connection is fine having swapped the hub for a new one.
    The problem I have now is that when i go into hh manager on the laptop, I cannot enter a password to get to settings.
    I get admin as user and cursor won't work  in password panel.
    On the pc it works fine. It's no biggy as I can acess settings on the pc but anyone know why it is happening?
    This is the screen I get. Different to the usual one.
    To prevent unauthorised access, your BT Home Hub's settings are protected by a password. To change the settings in your BT Hub Manager, you'll need to enter your admin password, then click the 'OK' button on this page. Please remember the password is case sensitive.

    Swapped from a what version hub? It does sound like you may of been using a v1 or v1.5 hub prior to using the hub3
    What happens if you go to saved passwords on your laptop, locate the 'admin' one, make a note of it just in case and delete it. Does this allow you to access the hub manager now?

  • Anyone else had problems with range on Home Hub 2?

    I've just received a Home Hub 2.0 today in order to connect BT Vision and was excited to connect it and get my Vision box set up. Having had a Voyager 2091 router before, I disconnected this and proceeded to follow the instructions to the letter to set up the Home Hub. After an hour of failed attempts to connect wirelessly to my laptop, I eventually managed to connect and moved downstairs to my usual location in order to finish preparations to set up everything needed. Looking at a cross-section of our house, it looks like a square divided into four quarters, with the room in which the router is located (the spare room) in the upper left and the room I normally work in (the living room) in the lower right.
    I usually sit quite close to the wall of the living room closest to the spare room and the router has always been located near the doorway of the spare room, allowing the least amount of distance between my laptop and the router. When setting up the Home Hub, I made sure that everything was in the same locations as usual. However, on moving downstairs, by the time I was halfway downstairs, I had lost the connection to the Hub, and by the time I had reached my usual spot, it couldn't even find the Hub when I tried to reconnect. Bearing in mind that I have always had (and indeed currently have at the moment, from the same spot as I just mentioned) an 'excellent' connection to the net using my router, I can only assume the problem is with the broadcasting range of the Hub. Has anyone else had the same problem, and if so, can you recommend how I can rectify it? I've tried all the directions I can find but to no avail.

    HomeHubs are notoriously variable in their performance.  Some of this may be due to the antennae, which in some models are stuck to the case with double-sided sticky-tape, falling off and not being in the correct orientation to give the best range.
    I looked at this in some detail last year here.  Most HomeHub 1.0s and 1.5s  I looked at then had very poor range when compared to other wireless G routers.
    Since then, HomeHub 2.0As have become a little more common and they show similar variation to the earlier models and some have an even shorter range.  If you get a good one, the range isn't bad.  If you are unlucky enough to have, or get, a bad one - complain.

  • Windows 7 unable to connect to BT Home Hub 5 (Dong...

    Just had BT Infinity and Home Hub 5 installed this weekend.
    Whenever I try to connect using the wireless dongle it lets me input the password and then gives back the message 'Windows was unablle to connect to BTHUB5-W2HM'
    Other wireless devices such as my phone and laptop will connect using their inbuilt wirelss and work quite happily but this message appears on my desktop pc and my laptop when I use the dongle, I did a clean install of Windows 7 and reinstalled the drivers that I downloaded off the BT Site but it didn't help.
    So far I have tried taking off security from the hub, ipconfig /flushdns, some other random cmd.exe prompts people on other forums thought may help, reset the hub to factory settings.
    When running ipconfig, it just gives back the response below.
    Wireless LAN adapter Wireless Network Connection 2:
    Media State . . . . . . . . . . . : Media disconnected
    Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
    The BT Dongle has power as it has a solid blue light on it. I tried it on a friends BT Hub 5 on his PC and it worked fine.
    Not sure what to do now. BT sent a replacement out but it does the same thing.
    Any help would be great!!
    Cheers

    Hi gregfin?
    Sorry about the problems with your Hub 5 and Dongle 900.  Has the Hub or the Dongle been replaced? If it was the dongle can you try a factory reset of the Hub 5 to see if this helps? Post back here if you need any further help.
    Thanks

  • Connecting server to Home Hub 1.5

    All Apologies for this probably being a silly question, but I want to connect my Home Hub 1.5 to another computer using one of the ethernet ports and I am struggling. The reason for connecting the computer is that I am using the computer as a music server which will then connect through the hub wirelessly to other devices around the house. My problem is that I connect the computer using the Ethernet cable but using my laptop wirelessly in other areas of the house I cannot see the hard wired computer. The laptop I am using is running Windows 7 and the PC is running Vista. Now I accept I may have compatibility problems with the two operating systems, but I have not got that far yet as I cannot even see the PC! So would appreciate any pointers or ideas or any documentation on this site which will explain in muppetry terms how to do this! Would appreciate any help. Cheers

    You need to run the Windows network setup wizard and create a home network. Make sure that both computers are in the same workgroup, and enable file sharing on Vista.
    You should the ne able to see the Vista computer from Windows 7.
