Since I bought the HD2 before 2 month and after 2 Rom upgrade I still have the same Wifi problem. I can connect to my home network and the Router can see the HD2 but I can not connect to the Internet through the Wifi. All other computers and PS3 connect just fine. Ip adress seems also ok.
Please help ?
I did have the same problem a while back, and it occured after I used the wifi router. Have you ever used that, even just to try it?
No I never tried the Wifi Router even once and changed rom twice.

Probably not the same issue then. For some reason I had it trying to give me a static IP address that my router wouldn't allow (I've got MAC forwarding on my router to make sure that nothing other than the 4 things I have can connect to it).
When you connect to the wifi, can you open the router admin on your HD2?
Thanks for your help. No I cannot access the router from the HD2, could it be a proxy issue. I am not using a proxy for the internet

No worries mate - I hope I can help!
It's not a proxy issue, if you're not using a proxy server. Could you try this and let me know how you get on?
Start your wifi connection
Go to all settings, connection, wifi, wireless networks, network adapters tab
Select the Broadcom DHD adapter
It should be set to use a server assigned IP address, not a static one. It probably is, but it's worth checking.
When I open Wifi settings I can only open advanced no wireless networks or network adapter tab. How do I get there ?

After you've started wifi, go to the settings tab, menu and all settings. Then carry on the instructions in the last post.
Found the all settings, the DHD adapter is set to server assigned. Any other ideas ?
...
Well i think we have the same problem.. If you try to connect your wireless, do you get the failure after pressing get IP: Cannot obtain serverassigned IP....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=627654 my thread was this..
I found out that if i you go under WIFI>ADVANCED>press on the NETWORKCARD under the field "SSID"> then go to the networkcard>Broadcom 802.11 DHD network adapter>remove the pin in use serverassigned, and write a static ip: example: IP: 192.168.1.23
UNDERMASK: 255.255.255.0
STANDARDgateway: 192.168.1.1
That helped for me, though i cannot use that fix because my college wont accept the static IP. so it works for like 2 mins and then it disconnect. hehe.
Heh - that would be pretty much my next suggestion.
Try a static IP address and see if that works. It's not a long-term solution, but it would determine whether it's your phone or the router that's having the problem.
Last time I set a static IP address, I liked it and left it like that, but I found (after a couple of days with no internet access) that it tries to assign the same IP address when you use your data connection for internet access. Your service provider is very unlikely to allow you to use the same IP address, so you probably can't connect.
Like I said, it's a test to see if you can connect - not a solution.
Do you know what IP addresses your router will allow you to use? Do you have a specified range of addresses, for example?
I have this exact same problem. I can connect to wifi networks at home, office, etc... But no network access. It connects to the AP's, gives me an IP Address, but I can't ping anything!
This thing gets more and more frustrating daily.

It also happened to me. Turns out it was the router I was using. I bought a new one earlier today and problem solved!
Hi!
I got a d-link dgl-4300 router, and had problem getting a IP adr. from it. When I gave my HD2 a static IP it worked, but very slow. After I changed from DHD network adapter to NE 2000 compatible ethernet driver it get IP from router and I can browse internet through wifi fast. Maybe it can help u 2.

I have my htc setup to both internet sharing and Wi-Fi connection on my work PC with a lan connection. On both of these connections e.g. wired USB and wireless i can get the internet for about 3 minutes then it stops working. Is there some sort of block? I did see a while back that the WiFi app has no restrictions...
Any help would be superb.
Cheers

Thats a little odd, there is certainly no block and I have had the wifi router running for a good 30-40 minutes without failing.
what part is failing, is the phone no longer running the wifi router, or is the pc no longer getting internet on that network connection?
If you need help on how to find this info just reply and I can walk you through some more diagnostic steps.
The phone is still running just the internet stops on the machine. I have to stop the wi fi on the phone then start again then connect. I think it might be t-mobile but the internet on the phone is fine
are you in the uk?
if you connect your laptop to the phone via the wifi router you should be able to right click the network logo, click on status and view the wifi network info, it should tell you in there if it has internet access on that network connection.
If you try this again and when it fails check this status window and see if windows is seeing an internet connection or not?
when the net fails again try and visit http://72.14.203.100/ (this should be the google homepage) if you see google then there is a dns problem if it still says network timeout or failed to connect or something like that then we will have to dig further.
LOL thanks for your help. I am in the UK. ive been working in IT for the last 12 years and I know and have done the test, its not the machine it has something to do with the phone or t-mobile network
Sorry to hijack your thread a little, but I'm on the T-Mobile Network in the UK too (except I'm using a Touch Pro with a custom ROM), and although I can make connections from the PC to websites using the IP address, the DNS isn't working so I can't resolve domain names.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Steve.

It must be the phone then since I do use wifi router, I am on t-mobile and in the UK and I do not experience this :S
I seem to be saying this more and more but maybe you should try a hard reset and see if that fixes the problem?

This is likely an issue with the way your machine has been setup to connect to the wifi network. Try visting the properties of the network and vieing the dns settings for the tcp/ipv4, It should be set as Obtain DNS server addresses automatically. If it is set like this then try setting it too 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 these are googles, dns servers if this works for you then you could stick with this or do some further digging as to why you are not getting the dns server addresses automatically like you should be.

Setting the DNS entries to Google's makes it work, but attempting to get the DNS Server's automatically leaves me with no ability to resolve domain names. How strange?
Thanks for the workaround, not sure where to start looking to fix it properly.

Hey guys,
I am new to this wifi router thing and got the following questions:
1. To be able to use it, you must have data connection with your provider. Am I right?
2. By any chance, can I use this system by using a sim taken out of a prepaid mobile broadband dongle and inserted into my device (htc touch HD)?
3. Once I get connected can I surf the internet/check emails etc from within the device itself without the need to use a laptop?
Please don't mind these basic stupid questions.
cheers
on WiFi...
This happens on my Thunderbolt, Transformer, and on my wife's iPhone. Stock roms and custom roms, it doesn't matter. Once I put the device back on the cellular network (I tether the Transformer)the services are able to connect. This issue occurs in the official Google apps as well as the web browser.
My home network is powered by a D-Link DIR 825, DNS points to the router @192.168.0.1
The router is able to resolve youtube.com and other google services.
Windows PC's are able to access affected services.
For some reason when I'm on my Android devices they don't play well on my WiFi network. I had the same issue occur with my MBP 2011 model. My solution was to force google dns server.
Unfortunately my D-Link doesn't give me the option to manually configure the DNS server being sent through DHCP. So I can't force just the DNS server on the Android / iOS devices. Any idea's or thoughts on what's going on?
Again, I can ping youtube.com from the router and below is more info on my ISP.
Telemedia Solutions hosted by Washington County Rural Telecommunications
DSL Service
6Mbps down 768k up
Located in Southern Indiana
Again, once devices are moved to the mobile network I have no issues. WiFi at my work works just fine during the day for my Android devices. I have cleared data / cache for the browser and youtube apps in Android.
Any thought's or suggestions?
You say the devices work fine at work, di you have to set a static IP address for them at work?
If yes, then have you made sure to switch back to DHCP when you are at work? (assuming your home network runs DHCP?)

No, I dont run static IP's at work.
I'm the network administrator and manage the wireless network at work so thankfully I have control over the design and layout of our wireless networks.
The network consists of Cisco serise WLC 5500 with Cisco 1141 AP's. The wireless network is a WPA2 Enterprise network.
DNS is handled by our AD server.
I almost questioned my home ISP DNS but if the router can resolve the IP then it should be able to resolve for any host requesting that information. I'm wondering if these Unix like devices (Android, iOS, OS X) are trying to resolve or handle the resolution process differently.
Again, Windows resolves the domain just fine. I may check configurations files to see the order of name resolution.

I ran a packet capture from the tablet and every time it tries to resolve the name the tablet receives a Reset response.
54 Domain [RST, ACK]
I'm even more pissed...aparently I can resolve the name if I do a ping youtube.com in the terminal emulator. I can't access the app or website however...but it works on PC's.
I'm wondering if it's outdated firmware on my router. Unfortunately this piece of $hi7 D-Link refuses to accept the upgraded firmware.
Performed a factory reset on the router.
Setup a quick and dirty wireless network and still couldn't access google services from it.
I attempted to upgrade the firmware again with the system freshly reset and it was still a no go. I'm thinking of ditching this POS router.
This may be a long shot but can you try setting your router ip as 192 168 0 1, then your phone as 192 168 0 2. Mine had troubles on higher ip ranges
Sent from my Nexus S
I did a packet capture from the phone and tablet and this is what I see.
Packet 15 - DNS query for youtube.com
Packet 16 - DNS response with the IP address
Packet 17 - A TCP Packet is sent to the router on port 53
Packet 18 - A TCP Packet is received with the [RST, ACK] flag set.
Then I see this pattern as I was hitting refresh over and over. The connection is getting reset for some reason.
Reading D-Link forums it appears that some people have issues with this router "blocking" some websites. I think it's simply an issue of $hi77y firmware and unfortunately I can't upgrade it. I've verified my downloads, followed the directions to the T, but it will not accept the firmware.
Well I upgraded to a Linksys E2000 with DD-WRT firmware and everything works fine

connection problem
Hi!
I have a problem with mobile internet connection I am living in london i have o2 SIMcard top up not contract. if i try to use goggle map or internet browser during walking on the street or wherever there is no WIFI it shuld be connect by o2 internet. I have the all rounder bolt on wich includes 500MB data traffic per month. I have been at the o2 branch they have checked my balance is all right. Anyway if i try to connect i have got message: „Network failure This application requires a working data connection.” They have trying with an other o2 SIM card it was working fine so they was changing my SIM card to a brand new but i have the same problem still. I was trying every settings on my phone i have HD2_NDT_MIUI_DEVELOPMENT_V19.1_Multilang_MAGLDR on there.
My phone is an HTC HD2 factory unlocked
Any helps are welcome
I have three Android devices and two laptops, all of which I have been using on my home wifi network for years with only minor issues now and again. All of which I have been able to resolve. Two of the Android devices are phones and are rooted with custom roms and one is an unrooted Nexus 7.
Sunday, the 6th of April (yesterday) all 3 of the Android devices lost internet connectivity spontaneously but both laptops still access the internet with no problems over wifi. I was not doing anything with the network or any of the 3 devices. The Android devices all still connect to the wifi and they can all access all the other devices on the home network. I can ping my phone from my laptop and I can ping my laptop from the phone. I can access the files on my phone using AirDroid. I have reset every device on the network including the wifi access point and the cable modem. I called my ISP and they are saying that it might be due to the fact that my cable modem has reached "End of Life" and does not support newer Docsis 3.0 technology which for some reason now precludes Android devices from accessing the internet. I don't buy it. I read up briefly on Docsis 3.0 and it is supposed to be backward compatible with Docsis 1.0 and 2.0. I have not had a chance to see if my phone or the other devices will connect to the internet through other wifi networks but I suspect they will. My phone does connect through the 3g network.
Anybody having this issue and if so have you found a fix? My only solution at this point is to buy a newer cable modem that supports Docsis 3.0. It's not all that expensive but I don't want to buy one if I can't confirm that is the problem. The one I have seems to be working fine with the laptops and was working fine with the Android devices before it quit working. If that is the problem.
If anybody has any suggestions as to how I might test this I would be grateful.
Do you have a terminal app? Start pinging your router then 8.8.8.8. Then if you can ping Google, then it is something else.

Dude, you nailed it. I pinged google and that didn't work and when I pinged the IP it worked. I also was able to ping that 8.8.8.8 ip. I knew then it had to be a DNS issue.
I then set my IP on the phone to static and then I used the Google dns server IPs 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as my DNS servers and Bingo, it worked. Why was it working before? What changed overnight? And why did it occur to all three Android devices at the same time. Up until now I had been using DHCP and everything worked fine. I even went for a walk around the block and found a couple of unsecured wifi networks and connected to them and subsequently the internet. But when I got home and connected to my network, no joy. However, as stated in the OP, our wireless laptops work just fine. Maybe Comcast is sending out the wrong DNS IP or they just somehow no longer support Android???

I am having this exact same problem. My laptop connects to wifi and my desktop, ps3, and TV via Ethernet but all of a sudden about an hour ago my Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 can no longer access the internet. They are connected to the network however the signal indicators in the quick settings is orange and I can't access the internet.
Could you tell me exactly what you did to fix this as I am not good with networking type stuff at all...you mention pinging and DNS servers and I have no clue what you're talking about.
BTW I have AT&T U-Verse.
EDIT: I ping'd google in my phones terminal and it didn't work....I ping'd my router and that worked(I think it did anyway...it kept pinging and I had to close terminal to stop it)
I ping'd 8.8.8.8 and got Destination Net Unreachable.

I don't know what AT&T U-Verse is but the problem I had was that for some reason my Android devices would no longer access anything outside my home network. I used a terminal app that I have on my phone and I was able to ping 8.8.8.8 which I understand is one of Google's DNS servers. DNS stands for (Domain Name Service) which allows us humans to type in meaningful names in a browser rather than the IP address. If you can enter this http://74.125.224.72/ into your browser on your Android device you should get to Google. If that works then you need to point your device to a DNS other than the one assigned by your ISP. I just used 8.8.8.8 and that solved my problem. You can also change the DNS server in your gateway device, whatever it happens to be, and that would fix the problem as well. That is assuming you can reach Google using the IP address I have mentioned previously.
There should be all sorts of tutorials and suggestions regarding how you can make the necessary changes. It all depends on your device and network appliances.
Hi
I am having a problem connecting to the internet through my home Wi-Fi network on a Tab A (SM-T350). It connects to the WiFi network just fine. I can control my Harmony TV remote from the Tab A so I know it is solidly on the net. It shows up as a connected device on the router. When I try for any internet connection I get a "Server not found" message. The weird thing is it has connected to the Yahoo home page twice but I could not go anywhere from there. When I got out of the browser I was not able to reconnect. It won't sync Email either. I am using several browsers and get the same behavior all of them. No other devices are having any problem with the WiFi network, just the Tab A.
Any ideas? A web search talked about similar problems on some devices a couple of years ago. It had do with the date on the tablet being reset and some sort of sync issue. This is not the problem here.
Thanks
John

could be something wrong with your DNS
I guess you mean the Domain Name Service on the router? I can get internet access using the same router on different devices. What did you have in mind.

maybe your device isn't picking it up for some reason. you can try manually setting the DNS to 8.8.8.8 in the advanced network settings and see if it fixes it.
I tried your suggestion. It was set DHCP, I went to static, and set the DNS to 8.8.8.8 and it did not help. I did notice that when I first try to bring up a web page after connecting to the WiFi network it will bring up the current page once. None of the links will work. Also if I shut down the browser and try to re-open that same web page it will not connect.
Anyway, thanks for the idea. If you can thing of anything else let me know.

I figured it out. I went onto the router it showed a device with the correct tablet MAC address was attached. It showed the MAC address was bound to a device with an IP address that did not match the IP address the tablet was trying to talk to. I don't know how that happened, but it did. Anyway I went onto the tablet, forced a static IP and made it match the one on the router.
