WiFi unable to find requested server...
I have an 8120 Pearl and I successfully connected to my home WiFi network. But, whenever i try to access a website, google.com for example, I'm getting "unable to find the requested server". I don't have a BB data plan, but I shouldn't need one when using wifi, so what could it be? I have security enabled WPA and I'm able to connect using my iPhone and 3 laptops... so it must be the device and not the router, does WPA have anything to do with it?

Are you using the Hotspot Browser on the BlackBerry?

Go to Options>Advanced>Browser to check your settings. |

What does it say in the top section? You can also try the DNS and Ping tools. Does the DNS server make sense, can you ping it and other systems? |

DNS server cannot be reached It looks like the problem lies under UMA... I've tried power cycling the router and the BB, so that hasn't helped. Any ideas? not sure how to ping from device... |

That's a different issue than your original one, and not related to web browsing. |

Have you tried an alternate browser like Opera Mini or Bolt?

Power cycling doesn't work |
Not sure if you mentioned it earlier but have you tried disabling the security features and/or firewall settings on your router and trying to connect?
Does sound like an issue with your router. But what exactly I'm not sure. It's hit and miss. It took me two days to connect to my home router, but it's been working fine ever since. Weird I know. |
There should have been lots more data in the Wi-Fi section. You can email it to yourself. Mine looks like this:
Code:
Wi-Fi You could still try the DNS Lookup Application, same menu as Wi-Fi Diagnostics. You should see something like: Code:
Primary DNS: 192.168.1.1 You should see: Code:
Primary DNS: 192.168.1.1 That will tell us if you router is providing either working DNS, or the addresses for working DNS servers, then if you can ping out to the net. |
