and yet again the problem comes up..it detects..it connects, no app can acess the connection...
so weird...im puttng it down to an incompatability between the phone and router. any possible fixes guys?

I did a master reset just in case but that didnt help..|||

I do not have my P1i yet (I should have it Monday). Some basic wireless security setup concerns include: the MAC address list , if one is used - it is not required for WEP, on the router must contain the MAC address of the phone. The WEP key must be the correct length for the encryption bit used (128 bit encryption requires a longer key length than 64 bit). The phone may only have 64 bit encryption and the router is set to 128 or vice versa, but not as likely. Is DHCP an option on the phone or is the IP hard-set?|||

I found that my P1i will connect to my home network when security is disabled on the router. I have not tried WEP security yet but the WPA does not work.|||

I have the same issue as well.

Have a wireless accesspoint I have used with several phones (nokia), but it does not work with my p1i, or to be more specific, it works if I uninstall the wifi drivers, then reinstall them and create a new AP. Then I can connect and use it until the computer has been turned off for the night. When I turn it back on I can connect to the AP fine but no application can access the internet.
Really fustrating!|||

I wanted to provide more info about the settings that enabled my P1i to connect. I had to obtain some info and make some changes to the router before I could configure the phone. I have an address range defined on the router, which is excluded from DHCP so I chose an IP that is free within this range. I wrote down the primary and secondary DNS IP addresses (not the LAN side address i.e. not a 192.168.x.x or other public IP address), and disabled security (authentication), which of course is just to run the test. I was then able to configure the phone. I created an Internet Account matching my network SSID. For the new account I set the IP to the free IP obtained earlier. I then set the DNS IPs’ and the subnet mask. I also disabled power save for the network account and the P1i finally connected! The phone displays a "blue ball" in the status area when connected to the Internet. I tested the connection for about 45min then turned authentication back on using WPA. I am guessing that WPA will probably not work on the P1i's 802.11b radio, as it is a newer type of authentication. I have not tried either type of WEP authentication yet. If anyone figures out which WEP authentication type works, then let the rest of us know.|||
