Wifi Issue - XPERIA X10 General

I just realised this issue now.. not sure whether its been like this for a while or if its some sort of one off situation but was wondering if anyone else was having the same problems and hoping for some sort of solution.
basically, when im connected through wifi on my phone and i try connect to online through my ps3 i get a dns error 80710102.. communication with server problem.. however when i turn my phones wifi off it works normally?
ive done network tests and my own methods to completely be sure that its my phones wifi that is somehow affectin it.. any ideas people?
P.s - my internet on my netbook was working fine through everything..

[Q] serious wifi issue!!!

After spending time searching the net for a solution i couldnt find anything as it seems my problem is unique. The issue is when i connect to my router through wifi every thing goes fine however when i go out of range or disconnect for a while and try to reconnect i get a message "Connecting..." then "Disconnected" and it never connects until I restart the router. The issue was worse where it connects for 1 time but the next time it does not detect the router, this was resolved by setting the wifi channel from auto to channel 6. But now i am stuck with this issue that has no solution. I have tried everything from static IPs to mac filtering, i also wanted to update the router (gigaset 504 agu) firmware but could find it. I am currently using x10 with firmware 026 -global. If anyone has a solution plz share it as this problem is really annoying

I have the same problem with my netgear router, it is very annoying...I think this a known issue with some android phones and certain routers.
Its seems no one has a solution, I guess we need to wait for 2.1 and see if the update resolves this issue

Well you could provide internet connection to your phone via your computer. What OS do you have and what kind of internet connection (wired/wireless) does your computer use?
Not that I've ever tried or used it seen as I don't have issues but perhaps this might miracally work..

I believe its worth a shot
P.s - Im pretty sure I've read up on a similar thread to this before..?

It's an android problem. I have this with my x10 and froyo nexus one. The only solution is to quick toggle wifi on/off in the power management widget. I've seen this happen on a Linksys wrt54g and wrt120n. Same with a D-Link dir655m and dgl-4300. If you are really unlucky like me. Having wifi and bluetooth on at the same time with this problem will cause your phone to either freeze or reboot on its own.
I get this with some routers, what works for me is. Data /3G, wifi off, 3g on, wifi on. I use switch pro to quickly configure the toggles.

I use switchpro widget as well...
just to be clear...do you mean you switch off data/mms then wifi off...then switch on data/mms and wifi.
thanx guys for the reply, but none of the mentioned solutions worked
I am seriously thinking of moving out of android because of this issue, its as if the phone doesn't have wifi?!?!

Wifi Possibly broken

HI
last night i rooted my phone using the exploid x10 root apk, at first it worked fine and so i left is plugged in over night to transfer all my music onto my new sd card
but this morning it seems the wifi has broken
it connects to the network but will not send or receive data, so the browser says no connection, so does the market etc
i have reflashed its software 3 times even downgraded back to the R1, still no luck, its not even rooted and its broken
any1 had the same issue? i have searched the forum but the ppl with the sam issue have not been helped. please i dont want to spend $$ to get it fixed i have no job
Hi.
No problem with the wifi so far.This is strange.
Do you have warranty?
Sound stupid but did you try to reset your router?
If nothing is working you should go to the service.
yea i messed around with wifi router, nothing, i can browse the net on 3g wich is odd, but 3g is expensive so that cnt be the solution. bluetooth and 3g work obv but the wifi cannot connect itl connect to the wirelss just NO datac exchange?
There is someone with the same kind of problem but on an EVO 4g, but i really do not understand what they reply's mean. Maybe you do?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=800910
tried to search on google and came across a LOT of people having this same issue, on laptops, iphones, ipads, which lead to the conclusion that it may not be a wifi failure?
well it cant be a complete wifi failure kuz i used the dev menu and it says wlam enabled and scanning just no connection
thanks

+1 and so much more for all your help man
i managed to fix it, it wasnt my device as such it was my router, too so i fiddled around with both mainly giving my x10 a static ip and bam it worked, cheers!!
I too have a wifi problem, but it is quiet a different one and i have no idea how to solve it.
when I connect to wifi at home my router reboots, but there is no such problem when i connect to my office.
I tried reseting the router at home and still no use, once it got connected and when i started a download from the market the router again rebooted.
How can i solve this????

Tried diffrent encryptions? like WPA2 or WEP?
Maybe switch from G to N standard (or vise versa, if availible?)

see: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11#802.11g
The X10 doesn't support 802.11n
no one said that it did..
My router uses N and i still connect fine

Somebody told him to try to switch the router from b/g to n. That was the point of my post.
And your router obviously operates all 3 standards at once

loose wifi

Yesterday I encountered an issue with N4 unable to connect to a Wifi. I was at a customer, trying to login to guest wifi.
When I entered the password, the AP would disappear and went to "Not in reach" status. It would be available agaib only after a forgot the network and re-scanned manually.
I had access to a iphone and ipad and samsung Note at the time, all at the same spot. All had strong wifi and no problems connecting.
Unfortunately, I was unable to find out any more details (wifi model, channel...).
I'm on 4.2.2, PA 3.1, no kernel mods.

Thats exactly the problem i get, only when am at home, my rooter is a d-link dir615 n300.
Does anyone know how to fix that loose wifi connection problem?
Sometimes i need to rescan 2-3times before it recognize my wifi.
It seem that i get this problem only at home.
My tab10.1, my xperia, my gf pc and my desktop pc have no problem finding the wifi
Please i need help

G2 Verizon - Wifi Won't Connect

Has anyone had any issues connecting to Wifi networks on their G2s? I got the verizon version on Saturday and haven't been able to get the phone working on 2 different wifi networks. I can connect to the wifi network just fine, but I can't access the internet at all. I can confirm that other devices are able to connect no problem.
Curious if anyone has some thoughts on how to potentially fix this. If not, will be heading back to Verizon to get a new one. Thanks in advance for the help.

I have the AT&T G2 version , it will connect to any wireless router but the connection will last 5 seconds then no internet, this is totally unacceptable I upgraded from the G-Pro and may go back as that never had this issue, I did read LG had a similar problem with the Nexus 4 and Optimus G
Mine works fine. I have a VZW G2 and an ATT G2 connected on the same router. It connects to both G and N networks.
No issues with my Verizon G2.

Did you try rebooting your router? I see this at home with the families iOS devices a lot, especially after heavy data traffic. I'll turn off the router for a couple hours or overnight and the next day all is well. Router is open, no encryption.

I have the exact same problem. It will sometimes transfer some data using browsers, but nothing on facebook, pandora, or the play store it will say connection lost or not data connection.
My wife has the same phone and it works no problem and also the laptop. Must be a dud wifi radio or something like that. Mine is going back to the store tomorrow.

Are you trying to use adblock by any chance? I was and it was causing the same issue you have. I uninstalled it and changed my proxy settings back to none and wifi is working great now.
Just received my LG G2 White brand new from T-Mobile about 2 hours ago. After many attempts to troubleshoot the issue it all failed. The problem is Wifi will connect to router and even work but after 30 seconds the connection goes down. The actual Wifi signal shows connected but no internet it gets stock. We tried resetting the phone and toggling with different features but still it did the same thing. T-Mobile is the worst they were trying to have me ship the phone back and leave me phone less for days. I complained and they are sending another one overnight but have charged me for the phone on my account. Mind you I've had months of bad service, after all I think I got a defective phone. I've read some other people having the same issue with other carriers. If I get another one with the same issue I'm jumping boat. If anyone knows of a work around let me know. I tried 2 different routers same issues connects then it randomly disconnects and stops downloading or transferring data.
Reset Phone - didn't work
Turned off mobile data - didn't work
Turned off wifi sleep - didn't work
I'm on Verizon. I have trouble with initial connection to wi-fi. It says obtaining IP address for a very long time. Even if I have a very strong signal. It takes about five minutes. It eventually connects and works fine. Then next time I try to connect to that router it works fine. It's only the first time I try to connect to a new router.
I just got this phone over the weekend and I was also having trouble connecting to my home wifi.
It would stay connected for 30 seconds or a couple of minutes then disconnect however the entire time the status under the Wi-Fi settings page says Connected even though I couldn't access the internet or the admin page of the router. Frustrating. If I turned off the mobile data, the wifi, the phone, the router, or some other unknown combination of events it would then reconnect again for another 30 seconds to a couple of minutes.
I called Verizon, they told me to take the phone back since I was within my 14 days. I did this and was optimistic. Then the new phone immediately experienced the same issue.
I did some more research, changed my router from 20 mhz channel width to auto 20/40 mhz. Not sure why it was set to just 20. I thought that would fix it. Nope.
I tried to set my phone to use a static IP, that didn't work either.
Then last night I tried the WPS Push Button option instead of using a password. This method worked and my phone stayed connected. I haven't had a chance to repeat my steps to verify it works again but wondering how other people are connecting, password, wps push button, wps pin? WPS is not my preferred option due to the security risks but just trying to track down what works and what doesn't.
I am able to connect at work just fine using a password.
I'm having a similar problem - my work network has no problem connecting while my home network almost never works with this phone (~25% of the time, other devices have no problem). Occasionally, resetting the phone or just turning on-and-off WiFi fixes the problem, but more often I just give up and use 4G. Anyway, if anyone finds a solution, please post! This is such a standard feature that should really work out of the box.
In case it helps, my home network uses "WPA/WPA2 PSK" security and my work connects to "802.1x EAP" security - also I'm not adverse to changing the security options if it fixes the problem.
Thanks! Nick
After reading more on this, I've decided this issue is router related not phone related.
I discovered my router reached end of life in April of this year is no longer receiving firmware updates. Newer versions of my router have received multiple updates since then.
I will be buying a new router. I report back on if it works.
I really don't think it is "router related" as all my other devices work as expected with my router. A new router may fix the problem, but I'm pretty sure the phone's WiFi is buggy and not the router..
Sent from my VS980 4G using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
In my situation it really appears to be how my router is handling the connection when I connect with a password since I can connect with limited security.
Does your router have a firmware update available for it? If so, have you applied it?
Received my new to me router yesterday with updated firmware as of 10/7/13.
My phone was connected for a few hours last night and I have not had any problems today. I'll report back if I start experiencing any issues but getting rid of my old, end of life router and replacing it with a newer router worked for me.
I did not buy a brand new router either. I went with a cradlepoint mbr95 which has been on the market for awhile and has already had a few firmware updates.
Check you wireless security settings
Had a similar issue to this and it seemingly was resolved when I moved the wireless router security over from WPA/WPA2 personal to WPA2 personal only. The phone found the WAP and connected right away. I tried to reproduce the behavior but alas I have not been able to do so. Perhaps this will help others.
hi guys
i found the problem
it happens just when you disable auto update in "settings>general>about phone>update center>software update>check automatically"

It's your router, not your phone(s). Can't believe you haven't considered the common factor.
There's nothing wrong with the WiFi on these phones. Hence you can't find answers to problems that don't exist...

I have no problem with wifi whenever I change new mobile phone . In your case you can try resetting your router.
I have reset the router and like I said in my earlier post, the problem was not just in my house with my wifi, its every wifi we have tried in different places all over
There isn't nearly enough data here to make any sort of assessment.
-Have you tested your connection settings from the phone? Try something like Speed Test to see if it can establish a connection.
-Does Wi-Fi stay connected or does it drop in and out? Does the Wi-Fi icon change to being grayed out? Does it turn itself off under your settings?
-Have you tried changing the connection type on the router? WPA2 to WEP, etc...
-Have you verified that the network is broadcasting an Internet connection from another device?
-Can you see the phone on your network from a computer?
-Have you tried pinging an IP address from your phone?
More than likely it's a DNS or DHCP issue. But I don't want to recommend any troubleshooting methods until the problem has been isolated.

Every device in the house works fine on the network. I play xbox live all the time with no problems.No lagging whatsoever.the phones will connect to the network and look like it's always connected to the network but will not load any pages or any thing.one off the network, it works fine.thus is the only device that has ever not worked in my network

I have the same issue. I have had the phone for a month with no issues. The last couple of days, I can't stay connected to any wifi either. It has happened on multiple routers in multiple locations.
I have updated my router firmware (although it happens on all wifi routers). I get a connection, then it disconnects, finds the wifi again, and reconnects...over and over again.
Something is up.
Did a factory reset...wiped everything to start over again...didn't help.
