Wi Fi

[madogre]

 Hellow I am new to Driod and to smart phones as well so go easy on my plz.

I just got my Droid 2, so far I love it, so cool I feel like a kid with a new toy.

My problem is, I cant get it to connect to my Wi Fi in my home.

I have WEP key wich I enter and it trys to connect then disconnects.

The odd thing is my neighbor has a unseacure Wi Fi that it connects to with no problems at all. So I tuned off the WEP key to make mine the same and it still does not connect, but it sees the connection and shows the signal strenght is excelent.

I am afraid it might be my wirless router is old? its a Linksys 2.4Ghz  802.11 Wireless G Broadband router.

Thanks for any help in advance.

I have provided some information below that may help with connecting to a Wifi network.

***The Droid 2 supports 802.11 b/g so the router is supported.

Step 1 – Complete a soft reset on the Droid 2 (Instructions below)

-Power the device off

-Pull out the battery for 20 seconds

-Place the battery back in

-Power the device back on

Step 2 – Update the device (Instruction below)

-Dial *228 and press Send.

-Press option 1 once the automated system requests.

-Wait 45 seconds for the phone to indicate “programming successful”

Step 3 – Power cycle the home router
