Thread: college is not providing wifi on mobile

please friends help me!
Our college has recently setup a wifi campus but the problem is that the in-charge is not providing this facility for mobile phones, many of our friends have purchased a separate wifi enabled handset to enjoy the wifi connection, but all our dreams are going to be drowned. please friends help us to make connection via this network....
some imp details :- THE WIFI NETWORK IS DETECTABLE BY THE HANDSET[5800XM].
IT CAN ALSO BE CONNECTED BY ENTERING THE PASS-KEY.
AFTER GETTING CONNECTED SAME "NO GATEWAY REPLY" ERROR.
NOW THE QUESTION ARISES THAT how can i solve this error in my college as a student? i have earlier solved this error in my home network, but it was owned by me...
please help by providing some tricks, hacks or anyways to connect and use

try this maybe it goes:

Ok so here goes!

ENSURE YOUR WIRELESS CONNECTION IS SET TO PRIORITY:1 on your n96

1st) On your phone go to..

menu tools settings connection Wireless Lan Options Advanced Settings

Disable "Automatic Configuration"
& Disable "Power Saving"

2nd) On your phone go to..

menu tools settings connection destinations Internet

On your wireless network Name (PRIORITY:1 obviously i dont know what that may be)

options edit advanced settings IPv4 settings options Change

all the detais can be copied from your computer. To find them on your computer go to Start Run

Type "cmd" in the run box
when you get the command screen type "ipconfig/all" here you will get all the settings.

The settings the phone needs is

1.Phone IP Address (enter your computer IP address, changing the last two digits to a number about five or six higher than than the original IP, for eg if my IP was 123.654.768.34 id put the ip in my phone as 123.654.768.39 to stop IP conflict)

2.Subnet Mask (copy the same code from the computer to your phone, DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING)

3. Default Gateway (copy the same code from the computer to your phone, DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING)

4. DNS Address (Usually called "DNS Servers" on your computer! copy the same code from the computer to your phone, DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING)

ENSURE ALL NUMBERS ARE IN THE CORRECT PLACES BEFORE AND AFTER THE "."

Are you provided the security key ?
Can anybody use the WIFI in their laptop /
Do you have to give the mac address of your computers ( Desktop with wifi or laptop with WLAn card )
In any Handset do you get the name of the wifi network ?

@essbebe

He has already mentioned that...

some imp details :- THE WIFI NETWORK IS DETECTABLE BY THE HANDSET[5800XM].
IT CAN ALSO BE CONNECTED BY ENTERING THE PASS-KEY.
AFTER GETTING CONNECTED SAME "NO GATEWAY REPLY" ERROR.

Thanks . Okay. Noted the details.
Does the Phone OS give Ipconfig /all data ?

hii essbebe!!!

yes we have tried it in our laptops and with a particular ip address we can get connected also but not by clicking the automatic configuration, the broadband provider is bsnl only, i think that, since it is for college they must have enabled multiple connections at a time, then why it is showing no gateway reply errror

When you get connected in a laptop
copy/paste this data here.
ipconfig /all ( NO EDIT)
Start RUN type cmd OK
New window
type ipconfig /all

2Which is the OS used in 5800HM ( mention model name )

@ essbebe i have purchased nokia 5800 in which i want to use my college wifi,
today they are going to give a separate user name and password to all the students, please tell some ways to use it via mobile.
today i will submit you the ipconfig/all data
please tell me if u need any kind of information to help

My friend also unable to connect to the Wifi of the Hostel...........
He is using N95.
So please suggest me what to do and then i will my friend to connect........
Thanks in advance..........

@gagan4392
Please read the thread from beginning and then raise the query.give info asked by members.
Say

1.

@essbebe . Your suggestion did not work.useless. Why you want Ip address?
Do you want to "hack my account ??? !!!!etc

@mickey . Tried . but could not connect
This is the error message I get.
or I get stuck up in step _____etc

Or

2
type in search box "nokia N95"
or "Connecting N95 to Internet "
and see the old threads of this forum, at least.
3
I won't request a new member to do all above. .
Does the college provide a laptop to each student for operating in WIFI mode ?
or
is it a cable type connection ( or VPN)without any modem/router provided to the students?

Rather you ask your friend to join IBF and explain his requirement.
