[Q] Leo hot wlan radio kills router, makes reset - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I notised that somethimes when I turn on the wifi function of the HD2 WM65 unit, there's quite a long delay in negotiating my residence internet connection via Wifi.
As it's only 2 meters away, it should be immediate. The observation is that I turn on the HD2 WLan function, as it polls the air, negotiates, the Motorola analog vDSL router (Netopia 7347) restarts itself. Same as if I do a HTTP connect from workstation and a software restart from the admin panel. (!)
Ok, I have a freshened ISP connection in time for my HD2 web connect but it does take also 60sec to get that new connection and kill any file transfers I may have going on my PC.
Has anyone else heard of this? I haven't gone to any Netopia or Motorola forums but as the HD2 is what initiates it, I thought I would start here.
I upgraded my radio rom some months back to "Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14"
using WM65, the boot screen gives:
R 2.15.50.14
G 15.42.50.11U
D 1.66.76641
thanks in advance,

still occurs, any fix?

WiFi disconnects randomly from AP regardless of AP

My xv6800 will connect to my WiFi router with a good signal quality and I can surf the web just fine but it will randomly disconnect from that AP. When it does disconnect - my AP is no longer in the list of available networks but other networks are still available and can be connected to. After about 45 secs my AP will show back in the list and I will be able to connect to it or I can cycle my WiFi on/off/on and my AP may (has to be off for about 10 secs or more) be back in the list.
Doesn't matter which router it is (same thing happens at work and other places). The disconnect only occurs when their is a pull on the WiFi (i.e. I load a page, watch a video, stream something) but if I'm just sitting there not surfing the WiFi will stay connected. It also doesn't matter what type of browser it is or what type of data it is or the quality of signal (happens on PIE, Opera Mobile, Netfront, GoogleMaps, Tom Tom Traffic even while right next to source with near full bars).
I had this problem when my phone was on a stock rom and have since flashed my rom to a DCD Rom (user created rom) and I still have the same problem.
Any help would be welcome?
this may be in the wrong section - just noticed
p.s. it is a verizon xv6800
If this issue happens on the stock ROM, then i suspect a hardware issue.... Sounds like you may have to get a new phone....

problem with wifi, is it dead ?

I Have JASJAM (Herm100)
When I Turn on, after Soft Reset/shut down, (Even hard reset), when I try to use wifi, here's whats happens:
1) It finds all networks around (status:Available),
2) It tries to connect to network, by asking me for (un)secured connection confirmation... (Status:connecting)
3) From 'connecting' status it becomes to 'Available' (instead of 'connected')*
4) After 2-3 retries of different networks(step2), all networks become 'Unavailable' and It cannot connect to any network anymore. and its not finds any new network until next soft reset.
* sometimes it establish connection and I can surf the net, very slow, but it hold it for less than one minute.
* Signal strength does not a parameter, battery is 100%, and network is set to Best Performance.
* I Have no problems to turn it on/off with the comm-manager.
* I'm not sure when Exactly it happened, but I Suspect that it happened around the time that I've upgrade to 1.54.00.10 radio, but since I've read that it does not affect on Wifi, I suppose it's not related.
Any suggestions ?
I use Schap's 4.30 should I Change to other ?
Thanks
I've found the cause, now searching for fix
I've changed to CRC 9.2 Rom..
(The schaps looks better to me...)
Same symptoms.
After few hours of trying, I've found the cause for this problem...
It happens when the wlan is set to 802.11g or 802.11b/g or 'mixed mode'
It can connect to 802.11b only, with no problems.
That means that I Cannot connect to most wlan I can find.
Please note that the schaps and crc roms already has the 802.11g tweak.
If there is a solution to connect to 802.11g or mixed, please let me know...
I'll search for solution, if I'll find one, I'll post it here.
Exactly the same problem!!!

[Q] Wi-Fi not working propely

Hallo everyone,
on Friday I bought a new Folio 100. Unfortunately it seems that the Wi-Fi doesn't work: the tablet connects itself only after I turn off and on my wireless routing.
If I disconnect the tablet (or the connection is lost) and then I try to connect it again, I have no chances The Wi-Fi connection cannot be established. Same if I turn on the Folio and try to connect it without a previous off-on of the router.
I have a WEP 64 Bit encryption. I tried to change it to WPA-TSK but the problem remain the same. I tried to connect to my Galaxy S using WPS2-PSK no way. The folio connects itself only after a restart of the router or with not protected nets.
I tried to install the Dexter mod 1.3a, with no results. Now I have the original FW 2.2.5.0053 back on (and the problem remains).
There is something I do wrong or I can still try or the tablet is definitely defective?
Please help me!
Thanks a lot in advance!!
Paolo
I had a similar problem: my WiFi network was seen as out of range by the tablet WiFi manager. And whenever I put the Folio in sleep mode, it lost the connection.
So, I changed the WiFi policy (in WiFi advanced settings: press menu button when on the WiFi configuration page, and choose advanced settings) to never turn off.
The tablet still has some difficulties to catch the network at startup (usually, I have to wait like 2 minutes), but now it keeps it.
Hope it helps...
Hello SinDeus,
thanks a lot for your advice, I've already tried this setting, but in my bedroom I've a bad signal and from time to time the connection get lost... and you can understand that it is really annoying to stand uphalf asleep to reset the modem. )
Anyway for the moment I've solved the problem exchanging my Belkin modem with a Zyxel of a friend of mine. The connection process is still quite slow, but at least it works without requiring a router restart.
Bye Paolo.
mine still not working...keeps on connecting/disconnecting......giving up soon...btw am using foliomod 1.3...even before when am using the stock rom..its so freaking hard to connect to my belkin router...only a few times tht i successfully get connected...help please!!!!
Hallo Neworder,
I had to exchange my router, the only way I was able to conect with belkin was restarting it.
I've also tried with static IP adress and changing the encoding type (WEP, WAP-TSK etc.) but the results was always the same. Even with the new modem the process isn't that smooth!
Quite annoying.
Sorry that I can't help you further.
the thing is if am connecting the folio to wifi connections in cafes/shops/eateries,no problem...fast and painless.
time to change modem router?
btw pademat which model of belkin u r using?am using a belkin 54g.
and ur new modem?zyxel which model?

[Q] Optimus one Wifi issues - please advise

Hi guys, so here's the deal : Just got a brand new Optimus One and the Wifi dosen't really work. It took me ages to get it to detect my home network ( Realtek RTL8187, used as a hotspot via win7's wireless miniport adapter - so basically virtual hotspot) Once I managed to get a connection the device would either be stuck at "obtaining ip adress from..." or would simply disconnect and reconnect in a quick burst. I finally managed to get it to connect by manually assigning the internet sharing permissions for the virtual miniport, but the speed is abysmal! We're talking to the order of bytes/s, measured both by attempting a small download from the phone and by reading the in/out data on the pc connection info. Upon some further poking around, a few wifi adapter and phone restarts later, I notice that when I connect to my hotspot the phone's wifi manager reports a normal speed of 54mb/s, but when I actually try to use the connection (say, the youtube app) it works fine for a second or two (it usually loads a bit of a vid, or half of a big webpage) and then drops down to the aforementioned speed and the phone's wifi manager indicated that the connection is 2mb/s
Also, I went out before setting up my home network to a mall and tried to connect to one of the free hotspots available. On some, it would connect straight away, but be very slow (signal wasn't great) and on one (max signal) it would disconnect/reconnect in very short bursts (10-15 times a minute) and it would eventually establish the connection. Then the same speed issue as above: works fine for a few seconds, drops down to unusable. Didn't think about checking the connection speed there, simply thought the public network was overused. In hindsight, the problems were similar to the ones experienced at home
A few side notes: The 3g speed is fine, consistent and problem-free
I have tried changing my home wifi's frequency to a number of settings (there are quite a few other wifi's around, I know it could cause issues if they overlap)
My wifi connection was actually not detected by a friend's laptop wifi, but we could connect our computers just fine via ad-hoc (which from what I've heard is a no-go with android at the moment - and the phone does not see ad-hoc)
The phone is brand new, only installed a handfull of apps on it, didn't change any relevant settings (I think)
Set wifi sleep policy to "never"
My pc wireless adapter worked just fine in the past, used it for a few months as the main internet connection, and even with half-signal it would achieve good speed. I also moved the antenna away from the PC itself to avoid interference
I set my PC to use only 802.11b since I've read around that some phones prefer this to 802.11b/g
That's about all I can think of right now. (oh, and It's my first android, so I don't know my way around the OS that great yet)
I appreciate any advice you can give me. Basically I'm trying to find out if it's an issue with my Wifi adapter, it's settings, the phone's settings, or if the phone itself might be broken, so I can send it back to warranty.
Thanks in advance.
Try switching from b to g.
it was initially on b/g

Virtual wifi hotspot stalls when using Titan

I have two laptops and one LAN connection. Say I connect the LAN to laptop-1. Then I use Mhotspot software to turn that laptop into a virtual wifi hotspot and connect laptop-2 to that hotspot. This way I have internet on both laptops without any additional router. I'm using this method for 7/8 months now.
The problems starts when I connect my HTC Titan to that hotspot. I can't access internet on Titan or Laptop-2, even though they're connected. As soon as I disable wifi on my Titan, internet on laptop-2 starts to work again. But it doesn't work the otherway, means if I disable wifi on laptop-2, Titan still doesn't work. Wifi signal from Titan somehow stalls the network. I'm almost certain because I have an android phone too (Galaxy S). I can connect the galaxy and laptop-2 at the same time and both works flawlessly. But whenever I start Titan, the virtual network stalls. Galaxy shows its connected but can't browse, Laptop-2 shows its connected but can't browse, Titan shows its connected but can't browse. Is it something to do with windows phone? Or I'm doing something wrong.
Note, the Titan is new but the Galaxy is old and the galaxy never created this problem. I tried to connect the Titan alone to the network, but obviously it also didn't work.
Thanks for any help. I don't want to buy a new router just for Titan :crying: :crying:
Update
I have somewhat narrowed down the problem. The networks actually stalls soon after I open the the marketplace or resume any app download. If I browse through mobile IE or use the facebook/email app it seems to work fine. But after opening Marketplace, the network stalls within minutes.
And another clarification, I do not use any sim with my phone yet. I'm still not sure I want to use Windows phone as my primary device yet. So 2G/3G + Wifi issues, pointed in other threads is not an issue here. I don't have sim, so no chance of cellular data to conflict with wifi. I would really appreciate some help here!
