Nokia C3 Wi-Fi issue

Hello

I had exactly the same problem as you, and after searching and tearing my hair out, I found a solution on a forum in English. Apparently, many people have this issue with the C3.

First, I returned to the original settings: Menu/Settings/Default Settings/Personal Settings. The default security code is 12345

After that, go to Menu/Settings/Configuration/Personal Settings/Option/Add New/Internet
You need to activate "My Internet"

Then Menu/Internet/Internet Settings/Configuration Settings/Personal Configuration

And now it asks you every time if you want to use Wi-Fi or GPRS to connect.

Comment se connecter à un réseau Wi-Fi avec le Nokia C3 ? J'ai suivi la méthode décrite au début du sujet, mais il n'y a pas d'option de paramètres Internet dans le menu Internet... Que faire ? Aidez-moi !

ooooooh thank you, finally someone who knows how to answer questions and especially how to solve them!
thank you once again! see you later :D

@step973

I followed your process normally, but when I got to Menu/Internet, I don't see "Internet Settings"?

Is that normal?

Thank you.

A big thank you to step973!!! ;)

I FINALLY solved the connection problem in Edge on the Nokia C3. Indeed, when connecting via Wi-Fi with this phone, it has the annoying habit of connecting in Edge and therefore to Orange World, resulting in a huge increase in my plan!! Not to mention the risk of automatically connecting in Edge without even using the phone!! (This has happened to me before)
Here’s the manipulation:
In "Settings" then "Default config. settings," set "Personal config" and not "Orange."
In "Preferred access point," set "My access point" and not "Orange world."
Result: when, for example, you download an app via "Stores" then "Store" via Wi-Fi (and not Orange world), the application downloads without any problem but you receive the error message "Sign up for the packet data service" (with the E in a square appearing at the top left of the phone screen). It’s normal, it’s just that Edge cannot be activated, so everything is fine...

Hello,
I bought a Nokia C3. No problem for it to connect to my Wifi, but when I try to go to my Communities or MSN, the following error message appears: "communication error - Please try again later." But it never works
I hope someone can help me
Thank you!

First of all, thanks for responding, but I am with Bouygues on a pay-as-you-go plan; I don't normally have a subscription. When I connect to my home Wi-Fi with my phone, I should be able to access the internet without using my credit, but right now that's not the case because when I connect to Wi-Fi and try to access the internet, it goes through Edge, which uses up all my credit!
Did you understand??

The solution for step973 works very well, thank you!

hi
to disable T9 mode:
I go to messaging, then create a message, then options, then others, then text input settings and disable it.
good luck

Quand tu vas dans paramètres Internet, puis paramètres de configuration, sans la carte SIM où il y a écrit compte, il n'y a rien écrit. Et quand tu mets ta SIM, il y a écrit Bouygues WAP ! Je sais que c'est pour ça que ça ne marche pas, mais je ne sais pas comment régler le problème parce que moi aussi j'ai ce portable.

Comment utiliser Edge sur un C3 ?

But my new problem is that I have Wi-Fi at our house and my C3 doesn't detect it, unlike my sister's Nokia N71 which works very well and the E66 also works well with Wi-Fi... :p So what should I do??

Impeccable, it worked for me too, but I have a question. If my phone is still set to Wi-Fi, when I use the "communities" or "mail" app, will it drain my credit or does the Wi-Fi handle those connections as well?

Thank you, you are a god. I was on the verge of having an epileptic seizure! :D

Thank you very much :D you saved my life :D

In the Wi-Fi settings, there is an option
INTERNET CONNECTION and you will have to select ask first.

A big thank you Druide56300, thanks to you I was able to solve my problem.

For those who are with Proximus, to disable the web, there are 2 tasks to complete.

The first is to contact Proximus to have them disable the option on your SIM card.
The second is to go to the website proximus.be/aidegsm:
- choose Nokia, the brand of your mobile
- follow the instructions "manual connection" and at the end of the process, remove the .be from internet.proximus.be
- then I followed Druide's instructions for Wi-Fi connection issues and now everything works.

There you go, I hope I have helped some people. I suppose the procedure is the same for other operators.

Hello,
I have roughly the same problem but with the C3 01. However, when I want to go online, it asks me whether I want to choose Swisscom PS or my Wi-Fi (the name of my Wi-Fi), and when I select it, it says "Link not available. Please try again." Moreover, the Wi-Fi works perfectly because when I go to Menu/Settings/Connectivity/WLAN/Available Wi-Fi and connect, it connects just fine. Even when I go next to the modem, it still says "Link not available. Please try again." And when I go on WhatsApp (a new application available on the OVI Store), I can't connect, and it doesn't ask me whether I want to choose Swisscom or my Wi-Fi; instead, a small E surrounded by a square appears at the top of the screen, and it consumes all my credit.
Please help me, I'm about to lose it.
P.S.
If anyone knows an application for transferring music or files from Mac OS X to my Nokia C3 01, I thank you in advance.
