I have a nokia 5530 expressmusic with firmware 20.0.080 (latest version on date of posting).
I connect with it to the internet via wifi. Typically, the first page loads fine. However the second page often fails to load, especially if it is not a very tiny website. Clicking on a button does typically also fails. Note that this also happens when browsing the ovi store, which should clearly be fully compatible with the nokia browser.
Some examples:
For the ovi store, this typically means I can get to the page of recommended applications, but I cannot download one. when I'm lucky, I can get up to the place where I have to enter my account info.
for the site "webmail.telenet.be"
the site loads, I can enter my nickname and password and sometimes get a warning about the fact that it is a secure site and the question to remember my password. After which I get the error "no gateway reply".
Directly after the previous error, I browse to www.wikipedia.org (the phone asks me gain to connect to the wifi network)
The site loads well. I type in the word "radar" and select the search function. The phone does something (As I can now select to stop loading the page" ), but I do not get to the next page. "no gateway reply"
I tried youtube (via the dedicated icon provided by nokia): same issue: first page loads, pressing the search button gets a no gateway reply.
In general, I get 3 cases:
- the phone keeps showing the progress bar for such a long time that in the end, I run out of patience
- I get the error "no gateway reply"
- The progress bar appears and after some time disappears again without any resulting action
I checked the following things:
- wifi connection: reception is optimal. Other wifi equipment has no problems at all (laptops, logitech duet controller, etc). In addition, the first web page often loads well, showing that a working connection is present.
- I installed opera mini (via my computer :-) )to see whether the issue is browser related, but with opera, I experience similar problems.
- different days, different hours of the day: same issue
- acces ovi via link in the applications, via the mobile site or via the regular site: always problems
Anyone an idea where things go wrong and how to solve this?
kind regards

Hello, i was having the same problem as you. The solution is very simple and you need to configure nothing.
Using the web browser by Wi-Fi is like using a laptop in a wireless modem, you only need to know the last 4 digits of your local
gateway (modem), and, in one side of the modem are always a numeric code in parentheses or brackets (this will be your
password), only select among the available networks to connect wich match with the last 4 numbers of the modem and use the
numeric code in it as the password and you will connect without problems, that's all.
If you try to connect in a public site is the same method, only asks for data connection (and you'll receive the last 4 digits of the
modem and the numeric pass) and it will be done.
I hope this works for all the people.
Best regards, Mike

problem solved: you need to disable the power saving settings for wifi. A google search should tell you how to do this. see for instance http://www.deciphered.net/blog/2007/06/18/howto_fi
Apparently, I'm far from the only one with this problem, on different nokia phones. So, I can only hope that Nokia takes this bug serious and tries to solve the issue.

I have nokia 5530 with Firmware ver 20.0.080.231.03, I have problem connecting to internet via WiFi with Access point set to "Internet", I get "Connection not available" error
When the access point is set as 'Always Ask' I am able to browse and download the apps from Ovi store. but when i change the access point to internet (to connect via my router) it gives me this error and i am not able to browse or download anything but Opera Mini browser works fine with this setting (i think the Access point setting is specific to the Nokia default browser)
It took me 2 days to finally figure out this workaround.Please let me know if there is any fix for this. Hope this workaound helps you.
PS: To Change access point goto
Menu >> Internet >> Web >> Options >> Settings >> General >> Access point

Hi Friends..
I have just purchased 5530XM but not able to use WLAN.
I have tried all the suggestions / advise from the net about No Gate Way reply but I am frustrated.
1. I changed the Power Setting to disabled - did not work
2. I changed phone ip address as static - did not work
Can anybody bring me smile on my face ? I would be thankful to him / her. Please obliged me. I am able to connect WLAN but while going to web browsing got same error "No Gate Way Reply".
Please reply on this.
Thank you in advance.
