FSPL720 Wifi problems
Hi everyone. Wifi's not been working on my Loox720 for absolutely ages, &,
on checking the forum, the advice seemed to be that maybe E2C had wrecked
it, & it needed a rebuild.
I've been putting off the rebuild for approx a year now, but the other
day, I bit the bullet, & got stuck into the hard reset & a rebuild
including 30+ products [& many licence keys etc], which took many hours
of effort.
Most of the apps are working again now.. but Wifi is still iffy as hell.
Sometimes [25% of the time] it works fine - Switch on Wifi, comms bubble
shows with many networks, select the right one, & away you go. The remainder
of the time, putting Wifi on seems to do nothing for 2+ mins, then the
'comms icon' switches from having a cross in it, to the 'comms available'
sign [similar to an '=' sign] at the top of screen. However, no pages
get served up by PIE. Selecting 'Configure Wireless Networks' | 'Add
New' at this stage, causes the PDA to hang, & require a soft reset.
I currently use Wififofum as my Wireless net browser, but find that it
more often than not doesn't work [which is probably linked to the 720
h/w misperforming..?]. When it works ok, it's shown up to 18 APs available,
with the number being constantly refreshed [14/18 -> 15/18 etc], but
right-clicking & selecting 'Connect', either crashes it, or does
nothing.
Argh!!
Can anyone offer any advice please?
Many thanks! Mark.
