Re: N8 symbian belle wifi internet problem

Have you down-swiped your main screen and turned wi-fi on and tried again? If u using an app which requires specifically you use your 3/3.5G network then you'll get that error if it is not available (in the down-swipe screen make sure mobile data is on). This is a phone setting issue, not your broadband/modem.

Re: N8 symbian belle wifi internet problem

Any luck on this? Smartphone with no wifi internet access, really Nokia???

Everyone told me to buy Android phone but no, I had to go for Nokia 701 with magnificent Belle FP1. No wifi, cannot sync calendar and notes or download Maps 2.0 in Nokia Suite… Error after error, endless stream with no information or details on what is wrong.

I feel like the last fool on this world for actually giving you money!

Re: N8 symbian belle wifi internet problem

Could not connect my home wlan, although accespoint's security settings are set to totally open system.

Connection worked when I turned wireless mac-filter on and added mobile wlan mac-address.

Turned security settings back to wpa2->Still working...

Re: N8 symbian belle wifi internet problem

i think i have the same issue with you guys...

 

i'm not sure if there was any final take on this but none of the solutions provided ever worked for me. i think this specific type of issue did not come from belle as i was able to connect thru any wifi connection available, using belle, in the past. it's just that i reset the factory settings due to lack of phone memory space and then this became the aftermath. some functions were restored with some updates available, though. i'm not sure how else i can fix this with the resources available to me now.

 

issue: n8 sees wifi availability, connects to it, but connection status is inactive, browser returns false and all else fails.

Re: N8 symbian belle wifi internet problem

HI I too faced an WIFI issue with my NOKIA 500 belle.

 

I have created an adhoc WEP or WPA  network from my laptop(wifi hotspot) to connect mobile to internet. Suddenly today i was unable to access internet through my laptop wifi. I tried re-creating ad-hoc network on my laptop but still no use.Even rebooting the mobile was of no use.

 

But curiously when i cleared the the data counters from LOG menu the WIFI connection started working properly!

 

The counters had the following value 'All Sent Data : 948 MB and 'All Received data : 3.97 GB) before clearing

 

Has anyone experienced this!

Re: N8 symbian belle wifi internet problem

Im Also having this problem ever since i got my phone back from o2 repair, sent it in cause my usb socket wasnt connecting properly, they apparently replaced the entire circuit board as well as updating all the software although i keep it upto date anyway.

 

Before i sent my phone off i used to get 2/3 bars wifi coverage all over my home and no problems using it now i get 1/3 and it keeps dropping out.

 

Have tested and i can ping my n8 with a reply. then i lose the connection after a few seconds

Re: N8 symbian belle wifi internet problem

Can see but cannot connect to open WiFI - N8. All other Nokia devices connect fine.

Done two 7370s and a software reinstall via Ovi Suite

Can't believe it really

Re: N8 symbian belle wifi internet problem

This is what worked for me. Try and access the web, failed with no mobile data connection. Click on the button on the bottom right for the context menu and get to general. Change access point from the ISP's to "ask when needed".

Do this: Menu - Settings - Connectivity - WiFi - Options - Settings - Energy saving - OFF. That is the solution to the problem of WiFi with Nokia Belle


The above worked also for me. Thank you :smileyhappy:

Re: N8 symbian belle wifi internet problem

The problem seems that's 802.11n can't be received by Nokia belle.. The moment I changed my router to mixed mode(b/g/n), my phone connected. This is a solution.
