WRT160N V2 - Phone connects to wireless but no internet

[ Edited ]

I have the above router Firmware Version: v2.0.02  


When ever I try to connect using my phone It connects to the wireless but when I try to browse I am getting page cannot be displayed.

 

Tried connecting using Dell: Wp7, HTC: Android and Nokia: Symbian S60V5

 

All these phones connect and browse normally on other routers.

 

Network Mode: Tried Mixed and BG-Mixed

Radio Band: Tried Auto and Standard 20Mhz channel + Tried all Channels (1-11)

 

 

Any ideas?

The way to fix it will be done at the router. It could be the security doesn't want to play nice with your phone, or it could be the lease renewal request from your phones doesn't want to play nice with your router. Well you can try to lower down the wireless security mode..

 

After making changes in the router settings check the connectivity status..

I got confused with this. Can they connect to your WRT160N V2?

When ever I try to connect  using a phone It connects to the wireless (it shows as connected) but when I try to browse I am getting page cannot be displayed.

 

I tried connecting at my friends house with the same mobile and they connected and browsed through internet so the problem is not from the mobiles.

Have you powercycle the router already ? Most of the time that works .. Make sure to check the IP address you are getting on you mobile devices .





I believe that I can make it :smileyhappy:
