Podcasting Error

3 replies · 1,850 views · Started 01 November 2007

I have the Nokia Podcasting application on my Nokia N95.
I download podcasts at home through my wireless broadband connection.

Most of the time it works fine, but often when I attempt a download, it starts to download but the icon changes to a red exclamation mark and it fails. Repeated attempts to restart the download don't change things.

This happens even though the broadband connection is still working, and sometimes one episode of a particular subscription can download fine, and another one can fail, so it's not necessarily a problem with the feed either.

Anyone else encountered this?
Or can suggest any solutions?

Thanks

I used to get this when I was on the V10 firmware but since upgrading to 11 (and then 12) it doesn't seem to happen. It might be a newer version of the app that resolved it since I always re-install the latest one from Nokia's site when upgrading so try those two things and see if it helps. It might also be a weak connection, how close are you to the router and are there any walls in the way?

Definitely not an issue with the connection. This happens when standing right next to the wireless router!

Am on v11- Orange won't let me upgrade to v12.
But only reloaded firmware a couple of weeks ago so it should be the latest version (unless I can download a newer version of the app from Nokia?)
