Hi guys,
I just jailbroke my iphone 2G. WiFi worked fine for few days then I suddenly starting having problems with connection. The phone shows i'm connected however it just doesn't browse!!!
Here is the surprise, I just realized that my iphone picks up the signal from other routers and work just fine when i'm somewhere else!!!.
I'm not that computer smart and I can't figure out what's the problem between my iphone and pc. They just don't wanna work together!! lol.
I tried reading the answers from different forums but I don't really get to understand the different terms like, changing DNS or change security to WEP Hex so i'm kinda lost here. I don't wanna give my iphone to anyone after i realized it's my pc who might be causing the problem.
I tried forget network, renew lease thing, didn't work.
Tried restarting the iphone and/or resetting the router, not working.
Also tried Going to General setting>network settings>reset still not working.
I really tried all other simple step ideas but then it's just not working.
Here is all the topics and tips i heard yet couldn't really go thru:
-My iphone doesn't show IP address when i'm at home thu it has one when i'm using a different wifi. So what should i do? When i changed it from DHCP to Static and added IP address 192.168.0.1 didn't help at all. May be I'm missing a step before or after?!
- DNS issue, still don't know who to know if that was causing the problem.
-Firmware?? do I have to update firmware for my pc?!
Please help me.
Appreciate your time and effort.
You are all awesome.
Thank you:)
