I don't know how it is with you but except for detecting the internet access, are you allowed/able to access the internet? In our country it depends on the provider but also if you pay for it.
If this is not the problem see if you can find something in the manual or go ask in the shop where you bought it how it works. Or ask a phoneshop. Also you might find it on the site of your provider. My cellphone can detect the internet but I am not able to use it since I am not paying my provider for it.

i see. thank you wakeupkitty. maybe the reason why i am unable to connect to the internet is because i am not paying for it. i will find time to go back to the store where i have brought my phone or maybe go to their service center so that i can really use this phone

@Wakeupkitty, When you go to a free hotspot, you can use your internet connection. This is a link where you can find them.

What router are you using? It's hard to pinpoint if it's the router or the cellphones that's not properly working. Are you able to use the wi-fi using your computer or other gadgets?

i dont know what router i am using now. i just turn on the wifi feature on the phone and search for any wifi apps and if i can find one i then connect to them. sometimes i cannot connect and if i am able to connect i still cannot browse the internet. my phone is a samsung corbywifi phone.

maybe you need to configure your phone or it would be better if you go back to where you bought your unit and let them do it for you so that you can use the full features.
perhaps the wi-fi is secured that's why and you need to encode the password for you to be able to access it. Just try the above mentioned possibilities.I'm sure one of that will work for your phone. good luck:-)

hello janevi. thank you for giving me the options! i will find time and go to the store where i bought the unit so that they can configure it for me or to the service center of the brand. yes, some wifi are needing password and so i cannot connect to them
