WiFi Questions
Why Does Sprint SmartView Keep Scanning for WiFi Networks?
Sprint SmartView will continue to scan until it finds one or more available networks or hot spots. If it keeps scanning, there are most likely no WiFi networks or hot spots in the area.
“Closed” networks are a special case. Although Sprint SmartView can detect whether closed networks are in the area, it can’t actually identify (or connect to) individual closed networks without probing for these networks using their exact names. To enable this, you have to create a profile for the network you wish to connect to. (See “Accessing a Closed Network” on page 38 for more information.)
Why do I keep losing my connection?
This may be due to interference caused by other devices like cordless phones, microwave ovens, and other 2.4 GHz band devices.
Why am I unable to connect to a network that I can see in Sprint SmartView?
Causes for this include:
●Signal strength from the wireless Access Point may not be strong enough to allow reliable connections.
●It may not be a publicly available Access Point. Many companies or campuses will use wireless networking within their buildings, but will not grant public access.
