HTC Hero wifi problem

Jun 28, 2011 16:48


After several months effort, I seem to have solved my wifi problem; my HTC hero isn’t able do to 802.11n. Setting my Netgear wireless router (provided by virgin) to only go up to 54MBps (which I think is 802.11g but it doesn’t say so!) seems to have been an easy fix.

I’m a little bit annoyed by this as I thought the devices should be clever enough to work out the fastest protocol they can both speak. They didn’t. Now, I’m not an expert on wifi, (but understand it enough to have written a paper on one element of it), but my giddy aunt, not nice.
