Well, it's enabled and my phone can pick it up, but it doesn't actually work when I want to do anything on my phone. Anyone have any experience with this? Should I update the firmware? I have it with me but I'm not sure if I should just yet. Currently on 1.6. Latest is 1.7.
 
Update the firmware. Latest is the better route.

Make sure you're channels and security settings are set properly.
 
check if your router is serving its ip as gateway under DHCP settings. Sounds like your phone cant resolve DNS.

Thanks. Which channels? Our country is not in that list. Not sure which channel to use.

Thanks. Interesting. My router IP is 192.168.1.254, yet my range start and range end IP is different. Should I change it to match my router IP?

Use Europe, Channel 6-11 preferably. I suggest making the start range 192.168.1.1 - 192.168.1.253

Not working :(

That's sad Mercurial :( What Security are you using on the Wireless connection? I always suggest using AES-PSK (preshared key) since I find it the most flexible for many devices.

Try rebooting the Router as well after making the changes (remember to save to flash first)

I know :( I'm using TKIP. Maybe that's the problem. I'll change it later and let you know. Thanks for the help :)
 
Hi guys. I updated the firmware and I'm still having issues. My phone connects to but it cannot do anything. I've disabled the security and that hasn't worked. In fact, it caused my phone to not be able to connect to the WIFI network.
