Help Wi Fi Problems

[rappy]

Hi There, having major problems trying to connect my HTC Sensation to my Virgin Media superhub via wifi. I have enabled ssid on my router as my mobile fails to pick it up otherwise. My mobile picks my network up and it keeps saying scanning/Connecting and then Disconnected.

I fixed it using static IP. It's a bug of the phone

How do you do that on the phone?

From the wifi settings, press the menu key and go to advanced options. After you need some knowledge of networking to input the right settings (they depend on your internet connection)

I have had similar issues connecting to my superhub and have to periodically reboot the hub. This usually does the trick for a few days before another reboot is required. (No difference using static IP address) If you go to the VM help forum, there are plenty of threads about wireless dropout with the superhub.

Sorted the problem out by restoring the phone to factory settings.
