I've just got a Nokia 500 to replace my X6 and its a great little phone, but I can't find a way to turn off WLAN to conserve the battery. I set it up to connect to my home network, but everytime I disconnect it on the phone using the widgit on screen, it refreshes a few minutes later and reconnects - I've turned scanning off and set connection to manual but it made no difference.

View 2 Replies View Relatedhow do i get my N8 to stay disconnected from wlan when i'm at home? Gone through all my settings but it still re-connects when i select disconnect.
My old 5800 you selected disconnect and it did that and stayed off till i wanted to reconnect but the N8 just keeps on re-connecting. Will this eat my battery life if it stays connected ?
how to use WLan on my Nokia N97 Mini. I was able to detect the free Wi-fi connection in a mall. But after connecting i was unable to access any sites as it gave error: invalid server name. Ive tried at Mumbai Airport as well, but still the same error. I tried many different site but still the same error. Also sometime when i try some sites after connecting to WLAN, it prompts to connect via GPRS which should not be the case I believe. Both GPRS and WLAN are different. How do I access Internet via W-fi and not with the GPRS.
View 4 Replies View RelatedMy N8 keeps connecting to OVI Store via WAP when WLAN available. Not only is WLAN available, it is connected and #1 in the list - checked via Connection Manager.
The Browser etc. has no problem - uses WLAN as expected. I can't find anywhere to set the OVI Store access priorities - I assume it's supposed to use Connection Manager?
I've setup my wlan access in Internet destination. In this destination I set up wlan as priority 1 and mobile data as priority 2.Phone keeps moving wlan from Internet to Uncategorised destination. If I move it back to Internet it stays for some time and goes back to Uncategorised. Sometimes it happens while browsing. I want to go back one page and phone will show that it can't find the address. Have to go to settings and move it back to Internet destination. Ad nauseam. Did not have this problem on N8. My phone has static IP address on my home modem.

View 11 Replies View RelatedI have noticed that I always have to select my home WiFi network when at home but I am (pretty) sure this used to happen automatically.Is it possible that the menu options have been changed during the update to Symbian Anna.I never managed to be offered the 1/2 update to Anna so maybe something is missing.I have 3 menu's under connectivity in WLAN
- Switch to WLAN
- Data use in home country (user manual says Data use in home network)
- Data use when abroad (not mentioned in User Manual)
Ideally, when I need to access the internet, I would like my phone to automatically connect to my Home network if I am at home, secondly if not at homem, to automatically connect to other WLAN's that I have used previously if or if none available, connect via my ISP (use up some of my Data allowance)Always Nokia since 1994 including Nokia 2140, 7110e, 6150, 6210, 6310i, 6230i, N82Current: Nokia N8 (Anna) - and delighted with it!

suddenly my nokia 5800 is saying connection to wlan network lost when am on the internet using my wifi at home. It only did this rarely before but today its every 30 seconds to 1 minute (basically its impossible to load up anything....
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an E72-2 with F/W 31.023. The phone has been working very well until I recently performed a hard reset. After doing the reset (*#7370#) I have not been able to disable the Select Wlan network display. The display is popping up randomly and is getting very annoying. I have gone into settings and set "show WLAN availability" to Never but the phone seems to just ignore the settings and keeps randomly displaying the select WLAN network notice.
I have tried hard resetting, soft resetting, pulling the battery for a period of time and even tried reloading the 31.023 firmware but nothing seems to be working to disable this annoying "feature". Is there anything else I can do to turn this off? Any other suggestions? Third party app maybe that gives enough control over the WLAN capability to disable It? I really like this phone and keyboard, but I don't know how much longer I can put up with this random display. I hate having to keep hitting cancel, sometimes when I'm in the middle of something else.
I got the nokia E72, and i have a wlan connection at home, so it always connects automaticaly and downloads the emails, and the wlan connection symbol is always on in the bottom of the screen, how to turn this off? cos it will consume more battery power

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an E52 and I can't turn off the WLAN. I set everything to off but still when turn on my home access point it connects to it almost instantly and the battery runs off easilly. WLAN scan is set to off, show wlan availability is set to never, and when it sees networks around it shows the two parentheses around the antenna in the main screen (( I )), and when it sees my access point it connects.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've looked around on the net but have not been able to find a solution to this problem.Using an N8 (on Nokia Belle), the WLAN settings does not seem to provide any place to specify the username and password for a proxy based network (Note:this is not the pre-shared key for the WLAN, but the username and password asked by the proxy server). When the browser is used, it prompts for the username and password and then works. However other applications cannot connect to this network as they seemingly lack this feature and the phone does not make this globally available.Nokia Configuration Tool (NCT) 6.3 seems to allow placement of username and password values. When configuration is transferred back to phone, NCT shows successfully configured, but this does not seem to be the case when the settings are used by the phone.

I tried pressing the power off button for 8 seconds but the phone only turned off,and when I tried to start my phone it did the same. I send it to Nokia Care but they said they couldnt do anything because they probably think there is something wrong with the motherboard. I don't know what to do anymore.
View 1 Replies View Relatedwhile updating the software through nokia suite it suddenly said that it had lost connection to the phone, and then went to the home page of the suite. This left my phone with a white screen and it wouldnt respond to anything. I tried re installing the software and such, but still white screen. FInally I took the battery out, and now it wont turn on! I push the power button and it vibrates, then nothing. This tells me that its not dead, and when i connect it to the computer it disconnects right away. I tried removing the battery for a few minutes and taking out the various cards, but nothing.
View 1 Replies View RelatedOkay, I know what you're thinking...USE THE SEARCH FUNCTION! But I have and I have tried all the solutions I could find on google and here. I've tried turning it on with just the bat, bat/mem, bat/sim, etc charged my phone and what not and still nothing. It just won't turn on.I even tried hard resetting it but nothing works. When I press and hold the power button it just vibrates once and doesn't do anything. When I hook it up to the pc, it recognizes that there's a nokia phone there...I think...but it only does when you click and hold power and i vibrates.
