Hi,

when i enable WLAN, the IPAQ 6910 finds my router, but eventually stays in a "connecting" mode and never connects.

I have typed the key for the WPA-PSK connection right and I seemed to be doing everything ok, but it doesnt work.

what am i doing wrong?

tks

I'm not familiar with the 6910, but see if the WiFi Guide linked from my signature is any help, especially the Check these first part of the Troubleshooting section.

thanks Ike, but im still stuck even after reading your site.

some people suggested me to get rid of encyption on the router and leave it open, but im not even interested in doing this. im sure there must be a way of sorting this out.

my ipaq is still in "connecting" mode.

Disabling encryption on your router or testing out the IPAQ on a free network, will allow you to troubleshoot what could be causing the problem. Right now there are many variables at play and any one or multiple variables could be contributing to your problem.

So, the first thing to do is see if you can connect to a free wifi hotspot.
If you are able to connect to a free wifi hotspot, then test on your network, with the security disabled.
If you are able to connect to your network with no security, turn security back on

You might also review these articles that are posted on my blog (which features the IPAQ hw6925 by the way) here:
