LG Wireless Phone

Connecting smartphone to home wifi..?

[ i have the htc evo 4g shift. and my router is Belkin. ] Anyway on my phone i went to my wifi settings and it scanned and found wifi networks. I clicked on mine and it had me type in my password and then said "authenticating with belkin_network". a few seconds later it said disconnected. Everytime I go to my wifi settings and try to connect to it, i dont need to type the password since its remembered but i click on it and it says "scanning...", then "connecting..." , "authenticating with belkin_network..." and then "disconnected". I have never been able to connect. Im pretty sure its something with the router like i dont know how to allow this device because two other family members tried to connect and the same exact thing happened.. so does anyone else have a belkin router or know how i can get it to allow my phone to connect ? i would reallyy apppreciate some helpp :] theres not much else i can say about it but i know the password is correct because when i used it on my laptop to connect it worked fine. but i will try to follow what you said i tried going to all of those default gateways and none of them will load.

  1. Based on the limited information, its clear the password to your wifi is incorrect. You will have go access the administration control panel for your router by using a computer on your network and typing the default gateway in your browser. That would be 1. http://192.168.1.1 or 2. http://192.168.0.1 or 3. http://192.168.1.0 If you have never setup or configured your router. The login prompt will be the default for the manufacture of your hardware. (Each manufacture can be different) Example: Username: admin and Password: Password or it could be "Admin/Admin". Once you login, you can properly configure your wireless settings for portable devices.
