HI all,

first of all i want to thankyou all for this awsome site and keeping the good work going.

I need some help with wifi setup.
I tried to setup my wifi with my 8125 using wifi companion and wifi fofum and both detected my network and connected to it successfully however, when i try to connect to the net using internet explorer a msg pops up saying that "cannot connect" Dialed +some number and then it says No modem at above number. To check connections settings change them if needed. I upgraded my rom to the latest one from cingular how ever i never entered this number which it is showing. Can some one help me with this issue and tell me what should i do.

thanks in advance.
Ps:- I tried wifi companion and wifi fofum separately not together.

thanks.

sounds like internet explorer is trying to connect to gprs or cellular modem or somthing.

you need to go to settings, connections, advanced, select networks, and make sure the drop down lists are set to "My Work Network"

Also check under setting, wireless lan, powermode and move the slider all the way to the left for best performance. I cannot connect to any routers when it is in the middle (the default setting). I have no problems connecting anywhere with it set to best performance.
