Nokia 9500 wifi

Posted: 12-24-2004, 01:29 PM
Hi. I'm trying to activate wifi on my 9500. I have a WLAN here att home
(both 11B and 11G) with 64 bits WEP encryption enabled. The phone finds
the network. I select it and chooses "new connection point" (or what the
key is called in englsih =)). I got a question such as "do you want to
create a new default internet connection for the selected network?" I
select yes. Then I got some choices for wep encryption. For example key
type. I select hex. But the keylength in bits.. There are 40 bit keys and
a few more options but not 64 bits. When typing in my wep key in hex and
press OK it doesn't connect to my wlan. What do I do wrong?

Thanks in advacne.

Nothing 40 + 24 bit = 64 bit so the keylength is o.k.
Just switch off Bluetooth and WiFi at the same time:
WirelessLAN Settings -> Simultaneous Bluetooth usage -> not allowed

Hi. Yes I have switched of that but it still says "not connected" in the
status page. I guess that it will connect automatically when within the
area, I don'ät need to connect manually?

Thanks it works fine now.

I don't need to switch that off. My 9500 works fine with simultaneous
bluetooth connections.

This is a bit of a myth. My 9500 has BT and wifi on all the time, no
problems. The trick is that the phone only accesses the wifi network when
it needs to. Unlike a true network device (that latches on and stays on)
the 9500 sits there and doesn't connect until it wants to. Set up your
browser to use your new access point, then try and open a webpage....

hi

i have the same problems posted here..

1º 42+24=64, but i can't understand a thingh... so, if my key is, e.g
ELEFANTE with 64bits, the acess point give me one hex key, which i
larger than the key which 9500 accepts in 42bits wep key mode... ho
can i make that

2º I've tried to change de security mode to WPA, here i can connect t
the wireless net, but the phone gives me, after "connected"
"importing"... and nothing more..

3º i've put "not allowed" the bt with wifi, i've tried everything tha
i read... but without any results..

...need help!

many thanks

Mr Li
