I have tested a few HTC Comm Managers(new black theme. Kaiser style) and low and behold non of them have the wifi working right. I cannot enable/disable it from the comm manager. Anybody find a real working one that does this? Even some that were claimed to be "FIXED" didn't work...
Anyone have a dump of the original also? (stock WM6)

I've got the same problem since the upgrade to WM6. Nothing works: soft-hard reset, upgrade... WLAN doesn't works (since comm manager).

What's wrong with it?
I'd tried to install http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=48832&d=1188607222

And then, the following message: "Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system p ermissions"
...
When I try to do the change in registry, a new surprise: in the registry tree, after CommManager doesn't exist "WLAN", but numbers (0,1,2,3... and in 3 there's WLAN). The change in registry: NOT WORK YET! :(

I've found the problem (maybe...). In folder "Connections" there's not Wi-Fi icon... what it means? :(

SAME THING HERE! No permission to do this! I hope this does not result in a hard reset.

OK, I finally got anew one installed. Even though I tried a fresh install after a reboot, I still couldnt get it installed. So, what I did was start commmanager, Bthen stop it in Settings > Memory > Active programs

It's Ok! Now, I could installed the comm manager, but it doesn't work... What I must fix exactly?

This is exactly what I did:
- Step 1: Copy to the phone and run it.
- Step 2: (Fixing WLAN button malfunction, somehow it doesn’t work by default on Wing): **Thanks for beowulf6’s post for this fix.
Change "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SOFTWARE \HTC \CommManager \WLAN= "Windows WLanMgr.exe " "DeviceName" = "{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006} TNETW12345"
the end of this long String is the WLAN-Adaptername of the Device.
just change in this Example "TNETW12345" into "TNETWLN1"
-Step 3: (Fixing Wi-Fi setting launch issue) **Thanks for phatman81’s post for this fix.
Change "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager\WLAN\ Default:"
\Windows\WlanMgr.exe --> \Windows\ctlpnl.exe

After all this... The WLAN icon is always off... :(

Nobody else has the same problem? It's incredible!! I begin to think that I've done something wrong. It has began after the upgrade to WM6... Now, I can't downgrade to WM5 because I don't have the rom WM5 original... :'(

Do a search. You will find that you have to edit the settings in the registry for the comm manager.

I have wifi problems too, but i can turn on my wifi... but i cant access my wifi settings, it just ever opens when i click it... I think what messed it up was me putting that wifishare program on it. Any ideas on how i can get this to work again?

You guys...

Go into the registry and find out what the name is for the wireless adapter is. Take that information and change the adapter that is shown in the comm manager.

Thats really all there is to it.

If youre going to screw with the software, youre going to need to blood on your hands. You cant just throw stuff on the phones and expect it to work.

All right...

On my wing
\\\registry\HKLM\Software\HTC\CommManager\WLAN\<DeviceName>
{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}\TNETTWLN1

That is the adapter for my phone, might be the same for you.
If youre using the changable comm manager you will have to change the settings for the wlan setup.

\\\registry\HKLM\Software\HTC\CommManager\WLAN\<Default>
\Windows\WrlsMgr.exe

Once again might be different for you.

Im using TouchIT 2.3 my stuff might be different.

HKLM\comm\tcpip\linkage

mine is SDIO86861 and in linkage folder it is shown ppp SDIO86861


Hope this info helps u

Had the same problem with tons of "commmanagers" and decided to explore more in the registry ...yeah you really need to know your wifi card and the launcher located in windows... I have an M89 iphone copy(china)with a cooked rom from m88( same thing-pretty much) and solved it.
tweak your registry:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\WLAN]
"DeviceName"="{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}\\JaguarGSP1"
@="\\Windows\\WlanLoader.exe"

JaguarGSP1 the name of the card(different for other devices)
WlanLoader.exe wifi loader(different for other devices)

if you have a m88 or m89 just paste this in a text file change the extension from txt to reg upload it on the device click on it and done...that's about it...it will work.
