iPhone 3GS and Telkom 5102G Wireless Router

[Piesang]

I'm trying to browse the app store and safari browser on my iPhone 3GS wirelessly through my ADSL Router (5102G).

It connects perfectly, I get full signal strength on my iPhone but it doesn't want to open any website or even the app store.

Any idea what could be wrong? Please help.

Thanks

Are your ISP settings in your router?

Or do you dial up manually on your PC?

I have 3 Pc's connected to the router each with different ISP accounts.

No account details are stored in the router.

There's your problem.

Store one of them in the router, and that one will be used on the iPhone too.

The iPhone cannot establish its own PPPOE ("dial up") connection.

I also tried by putting my ISP details in the router. PPPOE mode and still couldn't use it.

It connects to the router but I can't use it.

Your ISP may only allow 1 concurrent connection.

So disconnect that account on any PC that is dialled into that account.

Then try again. No reason why it shouldn't work then.

I didn't have any connection avtive at that moment.

I previously had my PC connected via Lan cable and my Laptop via wifi and that worked.

Yes, and then on each PC you dialled into the seperate ADSL accounts right?

The iPhone cannot dial into account like the PC's can.. So it does not have a connection to the ISP, whereas the PC's do.

So you need to put the ISP details into the router and reboot it.

Then connect your iPhone via WiFi and it should work if you put the details in properly. Can contact your ISP to set that up.

No, when I had it like that, Pc via Lan and Laptop via wifi, the ISP details was in the router. Didn't need to dial into it. It was always on.

Someone told me I have to make sure that DHCP is on. In Win7 I only get the option disable and automatic when I go to services.msc

 

[fxit_man]

They would be referring to your router.

Go into your router and check in LAN settings or something. Make sure DHCP is on.

And in the iPhone, go under the WiFi network, click the blue arrow, click forget network, and add it again.

IP on the iPhone should be set to DHCP once the DHCP in your router is enabled.

 

[Piesang]

Cool, I will check that tomorrow. I did search for it in the modem settings though but couldn't find any setting that says DHCP. I should have more time tomorrow to look for it though.

When I type ipconfig/all in command prompt it says that DHCP is off.

So it must be that then.

PS. No Jailbreak for v3.1.3 for 3GS yet?
