How do i make N97 mini connect to wi-fi automatically when i'm at home and packet network (3G etc.) when no wi-fi is available? Also how to make it prompt before connecting to packet network, as i get charged for it?
This phone has got a mind of its own at the moment, Facebook widget tries to connect to packet network even when an existing wi-fi connection is extablished (and spotify is using it). I get a beep every time it fails.
In fact ALL widgets try to establish a packet connection when there's no need and i simply cannot change any settings to make this device work sanely.
I have a Nokia N97, which having a mobile Internet connection, which I only want to use when I'm not near my different wifi network. But it does not connect automatically, and it always selects my mobile connection, why?
When I'm at home my iPhone 4s will not connect to my wifi automatically I have to enter the password every time it's only started doing this but as soon as I'm away from home it goes to 3G then once get home should connect to wifi but doesn't even if I put password in then turn airplane mode on it wouldn't reconnect to wifii would have to enter password again
after I update my Iphone 4 to 5.1.1 I can't connect to the wifi automatically. All the time when I turn off the wifi from the phone I need to type the wifi code again.
there seem to be a bug that I dont seem to be able to find out how to fix, the problem is that i dont want the phone to connect to a wifi network everytime it recognizes one, basically i have few prefered wifis that i use, but i do not want the phone to connect to them automatically. what i already tried is disabled wifi scanning, filtered out those networks that i dont want it to connect to automatically - still no luck. What i wouldnt like to do is delete the networks to enter the password everytime i want to connect...isnt there an easier way around, at least for the phione to ask before connecting to the wifi...
why does my phone automatically connect to my wifi when i go to my hotmail account which means i cannot get my emails whilst outside and i get no alerts for new emails
After I updated my Xperia Z3 to 5.1.1, connecting to the wi.fi became a problem. The mobile doesn't connect automatically to my wi.fi. It shows the there is an authenticating problem. It connects after several times of trying. What should I do expect for software repair???
I have to manually connect to all wifi connections, even when I am at the office or at work. The wifi entry is saved, so no need to enter password, just have to click on it everytime. I already tried deleting the entry and re-entering them, no luck.
I can not get my galaxy s5 to automatically connect to 4G after being connected to wifi, the smart network switch is activated however it doesn't make any difference. the only way for me to reconnect to my network is to restart the device.
I'm a new android user. The problem I'm having is that when my wifi drops out or if I come home the Internet on my phone does not switch back from mobile data to wifi. I'm with bigpond and I have put the password into my phone and I don't need to put the password in each time but when I go to wifi settings it says sign in required and I press connect and the wifi turns on. As soon as I come home or the Internet drops out it switched back to 3G and doesn't connect back to wifi unless I do what I mentioned above.
The advanced setting on the wifi are Proxy-none Ip settings DHCP Signal strength- very strong Security wpa2 psk
I also have the smart network switch toggled to off. I have reset my telstra router.
I've wasted a lot of my mobile data this week before I realised that when I left the house or the net dropped out my phone was staying on 3G and not switching back to wifi the way my iPhone and every other phone I've owned did.
How can I make WiFi connect automatically to my router why do I have to tell it to connect every time I can not see any auto settings Also seems to drop off after about 30 Min is this power save?
My phone will no longer automatically connect to saved WiFi networks. It knows they're there, because if I go to Settings -> WiFi, it shows up in the list as a "saved" one. Tapping on it and selecting "connect" does nothing. I have to turn off the WiFi and turn it back on, and it will then automatically connect.
Additionally, WiFi will not stay off. If I'm some place I don't want it to connect to WiFi, I turn it off so that I don't get messages that networks are available (specifically when I'm driving, it's really annoying to deal with that over Waze).
I've got a Sprint GS5, running stock (not rooted), on 5.0. No updates available for the phone. It does this on every WiFi network I have saved (home, school, and school apartment, among others). I've also tried turning Smart Switch off and on, it makes no difference for either issue.

I can't access any of my applications that needed an internet connection.. like google play and facebook, it loads super slow and the result is NO CONNECTION.. but my wifi cignal is at 3 bars..
I've got DLink Wi-Fi router at home. All computers need only the key and connect to the Internet without any problem.But my new xperia mini wan't. It connects to the router, says: "Connected. Signal is very good." But it doesn't go to the Internet, says: "web-page is unavailable".
I have an X10 mini 2.1 (with Rogers Wireless), and I've never had a problem connecting to wifi until early last week. Now it connects for about 10 seconds then disconnects then attempts to reconnect but with no success. I've backed up all my info/apps etc and reset the phone but have had no success with the wifi issue
It detects our home network but when you ask the phone to connect it says' connecting... disconnected'.
I've checked the router settings and the network uses all three interfaces - 802.11g/n/b and encryption is by WPA + WPA2 - so I believe that these are the correct settings for this phone.
we have 3 mini pros, mine, wife and workmate.we are all having the same issue which is our phone will no longer connect to wifi we have tried the following-
-updated firmware 2.1
-made sure signal strength is excellant
-reset settings
-reset modem and made sure password and security details are correct
-used different modems and wifis to test the phone
-downloaded and used wifi apps ie wifi fixer etc
- read the hundreds of suggestions in different forums regarding this issue with this phone... noone has had any real success. maybe one or two people like i said, we have 3 of these phones with 3 different wifi modems. and have tried connecting to other wifi... it just refuses to connect its a shame becuase i can speak for the others in saying , if i knew the wifi didnt work on this phone we would never of bought it.
I've got Teracom Wi-Fi router at home. All computers and iphone need only the key and connect to the Internet without any problem.But my new xperia mini wan't. It connects to the router,Says "Obtaining address" then says "unsuccessful" I am keep trying but it says the same issue,My router secured with WPA2 personal
I upgrade my X10 mini to Android 2.1 and after that I can't connect to WiFi With Android 1.6 the wifi connectio worked fine,i reinstalled Androi2.1 2 times but nothing..
as soon as I try and connect my new xperia pro to the home wifi network, it seems to be restarting my wifi router thus bringing the whole network down.
I have a problem after upgrading to Android 4 Usually im connecting to workplace wifi by using static IP address setting But now in Android 4, those manual setting have been disable I cant make any changes with the router? How can i change the IP address?
I've got data traffic, and Wi-Fi ticked and I can see my network on the Wi-Fi Networks list but when I click on it and enter the password beneath Wi-Fi it says "disconnected".What's even weirder is that I managed to connect the phone to the internet the first time I booted it up for five minutes, but since then I haven't been able to recreate that success . What should I do?

currently I am running Opera mini on the 8520 Curve.I have turned on gprs & wifi.How can I make sure the Opera Mini uses wifi to connect to the internet? It does not show wifi or gprs in the right top corner.
I have Nokia 5800xm, I have updated the OVI maps to to version 3.3 and whenever I open it, mobile connects automatically to internet via GSM network which I don't want, before updating it asks me before if I want to connect or not. Now may most of application which need internet, it opens internet automatically. It does cost money because it's expensive to connect from mobile.
My wifi and packet data connections are set to turn on "After Confirmation" (instead of Automatic).FOr Internet access, Maps, and Nokia Messaging I have set the Access Point to Wifi and set it to "Always Ask" (for incoming & outgoing).Before I set up Nokia Messaging for my POP account the wifi would come on whenever I selected the Access point when an application requested it, and then turn off once the application was closed. However, after I have set up Nokia Messaging with 4 hour sync the wifi keeps turning on by itself. Even if I disconnect the active connection it turns on automatically within a couple of minutes.Nokia Messaging pops up every four hours asking if it can use the wifi. Even if I have terminated the active wifi a couple of minutes earlier, it will turn on as soon as I select "Cancel" for the popup from Nokia Messaging. In other words, no matter what I do, wifi turns on automatically and stays on till I disconnect it after which it turns on automatically.I have updated to the latest firmware nokia had for the phone. I have rechecked the settings several times and made sure no other application is active or trying to access the Net.All I am looking for is for the wifi ti turn on when checking mail and then turn off untill needed after 4 hours, so that batter life is not being used uselessly.
