Wifi on OS 5.0.0.411
 

Hi, after upgrading from v4 to v5.0.0.411, my wifi does not work as before.

My phone company has cut off the service because I haven't paid the last bill for five days or so, but even though I couldn't make outgoing calls, my wifi used to work so I could receive emails and pins.

Any experts have any suggestions on how to make it work again till I get to pay the bill?

Thanks!

The carrier can shut down services. Pay the bill

well thanks for stating the obvious. I will do when I can.

as I said it was working ok for the previous version so can't figure out why an OS update would change anything.

I can browse the web with the hotspot browser but no email/pin's.

Under "Host Routing Tables", I don't see any entries - blank screen. Any chance this could be the problem?

Thanks

As was stated, just pay the bill.

In one way this doesn't make sense to me.

e-mail and PIN rely on the cell phone network (or at least redirection from the cell phone company)

If your service is cut off, SOME wi-fi stuff will work. I had the same expereince on my old phone before work started paying my bills. Wi-Fi should work on the browser.

I wouldn't expect e-mail or PIN to work at those use the cell network and are associated with your phone/data plan, which is cut off.

Pay up :P

Don't expect ANYthing but the hotspot browser to work on WiFi only, with not BIS data.

No email, no PIN, etc.

I thought mails could download via wifi? When I turn off my mobile network my mails still get downloaded.

You pay your bills, don't you?

Pay the bill Sherlock. :?

That needs a bit of clarification. Mail and PIN work fine over wifi ONLY, provided your data plan is still active (read: you have paid your bills) so you can drop transport on RIM infrastructure over wifi. And yes JSanders i know that's what you meant, no need to reply, just thought the wording wasn't clear enough. (y)

No reply. :)
