Help with WLAN Drive Update

[Costjim]

Hi Everyone

Needs some help and or instructions.

I have a Ipaq 5450 and did the wireless firm update and then the WLAN Driver Update.

I get a signal and it is stronger than if was before the update, but when I go to connect to the internet it sends me to the screen:

Trouble Connecting
Unable to connect with current settings. To change your connection settings, tap settings.

I have changed all the settings and I don't know which combination will work

Need Help

Thanks, Jim

Hi Jim,

I have the same device and have the same problem, so I'm interested to hear from someone who can help us out. I'm wondering what version of WLAN driver you have. I have 3.2.2.84 and Firmware 0.100.5.39

Which linksys router do you have? Is it "B" or "G" in mixed mode.

[Costjim]

Hi

It is a B router

Thanks

Have you tried changing all the "internet" and "work" settings to either all "internet" or "work"? If you've tried that take the battery off and push the reset button about 5 times or so. I've never had to do that but I have seen posts where that method has worked to restore network connectivity.

[Costjim]

Yes

I have tried ever possible combination of settings

Thanks, Jim

Removing and replacing the battery at least helped the settings stay on what I selected. I will try to reconnect once I get back home to the base station.

This solution was also given to me by HP support when I couldn't get my WEP key entered properly, so re-setting the unit looks like a frequent activity. :?

Jim,

I managed to reconnect to the web - for awhile. But now it takes forever to load a browser and I think I'm back where I started. Plus, I still cannot send an e-mail Wi-Fi. So, I'm getting frustrated. Hope you are having better luck.

You know I have just given up and uninstalled the driver and stayed with the old drivers.

Thanks for the help

Cheers, Jim
