Title: smartphone connection to dlink wireless network
Post by: jarnina on February 03, 2012, 07:29:07 AM

my wife and I both have samsung galaxy s2 smartphones that for the last 2 months since purchased worked fine when connected to the d-link network-suddenly,yesterday both phones disconnected and when we tried to connect and entered the WEP key that worked fine previously,neither would connect-I powered both phones off and on as suggested by ATT,but that did not work-any suggestions would be appreciated.

What wireless modes are you using?
Try single mode G or mixed G and N?
What security mode are you using? Preferred security is WPA-Personal. WPA2/Auto TPIK and AES.
Any cordless house phones?
Any other WiFi routers in the area? Use InSSIDer (http://www.metageek.net/) to find out.
Turn off Short GI, WLAN partition and Extra Wireless Protection if you have it. Under Advanced/Advanced Wireless.
