Since i upgraded from v3 to v4, i could never use my wireless router to connect to the internet on my N80, pretty much rendering it almost useless as thats what i wanted it for.
Now im sure i saw Cash had wrote somewhere that this was happening to alot of people, ive now upgraded to the IE edition and am still having trouble!
I have the security now set to None on my router and still no joy. Is this a problem for anyone else?
yeah, Cash and I both had a conversation RE this problem but neither of us came to an answer that I know of....
my connection now has been 100% ok tho... and I havent changed anything... its just 'working'..
dunno about Cash's
I've never noticed a problem with the wifi. It is, however, REALLY vulnerable to interference from your hand if you hold the phone with your palm over where the antenna is.
I have seen HUGE differences in the phone being able to detect/connect to wifi networks, all depending on how I hold it/if I am covering the antenna with my hand.
The wifi antenna is basically under the camera button, and the phone is most receptive from the right hand side/back-right, around this area. Therefore when trying to connect to wifi, don't hold it with your hand over the camera button, try holding it left handed, or put it on a table, with the right hand side of the phone pointing towards where the router is.
Don't know if this is relevant to you, but I think everyone should bear this in mind!
yeah i completely agree, whenever im trying to get a good signal for my phone or a wifi signal i hold my phone up with my 2 fingers at each side of the bottom of the phone. this is essential knowledge with an N80!
I found my problem was something to do with my router, I upgraded the firmware in my wifi router, reset and it works fine, although occasionally I still have to reset my router because the problem seems to come back...I am also in the habit now of turning my phone on and off a couple of times a week ...
i think my problem maybe router based too. just updated it and am gonna reset it now.
It's a Safecom ADSL/ADSL2 4port 10/100 ethernet + 54mb Wireless and its becoming really unreliable lately i must admit!
Hmm, I am also on the latest v. F/W... but I still dont turn my phone on and off that much...
WHO KNOWS!?? 🙄
Its the mystery of wifi I think 😊....
lol this is why i never use Wifi with PCs!
if only the N80 had an RJ45 port in the bottom 😃😃
ok now its working and what can i say other than WOW!!
This is what i wanted the N80 for, it is class! The Wlan scanner is just what the doctor ordered, and podcasting! Genius!!
