I can't be the only SGS user who has a router with a non-broadcasting ssid, so how did you guys get it to connect? I looked up the problem with google and it's a known android problem. There doesn't seem to be a general fix for it.
My ssid is hidden and I have no problems connecting to my wifi at home.
Have an hidden essid too, and no problemes connecting to it
Really? Must be my router then, okay. Thanks for the replies.
Make sure you typing in the ssid exactly as it is in the router remembering that it's case sensitive, also remember to select your security type correctly as well. Also make sure you're not filtering the mac addresses of the devices you allow on your network..

Everything was correct. It connected just fine with the ssid visible, but as soon as I made it invisible, it would no longer connect.
I have the same problem...
My FW is JH1 (Hong Kong)
Please help...
Also had that problem in the beginning..but went away when flashed JG5.. (Current fw JM5 also ok) ..read that there is also an app on market that can be used..look for ssid enabler or hidden ssid..or something like that
You shouldn't have a problem connecting to a hidden network but you have to manually connect everytime. Android does not have a "connect even when not broadcasting" option, so your phone will not automatically connect to your network when in range. Every time you want to connect you have to enter in the connection details.
Try the app called Hidden SSID Enabler. It worked for some others:

Are you sure about the setting in your router? Like Intratech wrote about the MAC filter? If you make it invisble and it dont make connect with the router I guess you havent given the router your PHONE wifi MAC address, if you have the mac adresses activated you must do that.
i had this problem too,
i entered in the correct ssid ID and password but it would get stuck on attempting to connect. If I enabling SSID broadcasting then i can connect using the identical setup.
I also have this issue. Running jg1 on bell.

This is not true in my case.
I had no issues connecting to my non-broadcasting network at work. And it automatically reconnects every morning when I walk in the door.
Bell samsung galaxy s vibrant.
Firmware 2.1_update 1
Base band i9000ugjg9
Build number eclair.ugjg9
I cannot connect to hidden ssid.
Router dlink dir-625
Mixed mode b/g/n
Wpa/wpa2
Mac filter off
If i try to connect while its hidden it just says "network remembered, not in range." If I then just un hide the network it connects fine right away.
Help, I really like this phone but there is also a very good reason for having my network hidden. Any one have any success after rooting the phone or something like that. Also hidden ssid enabler app does nothing when I hit the enable hidden ssid button. Thanks

I don't use Mac filtering, so that's not it. I think Mac filtering is over-kill in a home environment. If someone is really determined to break into your network, Mac filtering is not going to stop them. The same is true for hidden ssid, but at least that's not as annoying to set up and use.
Turn off WPS and Push button
I had simular problems letting Router configure Network using WPS and WPS Push button.
After you've aadded the network manually, under manage networks, modify network, hit menu, then hit advanced, uncheck push and WPS
No problems after that.
Something to try.
Did people here try hidden SSID enabler app yet?

Hi, I have HTC Touch HD New. I have home wireless secured router DHCP with (WPA2 Mixed) with paraphrase While trying to connect I ran through wizard to connect to my wireless no luck. Then gave static IP , changed WPA2 to WPA/TKP, changed channel from 5 to 11 no response, stopped Firewall, anything what can be done with router did…..no connection. The HD sees the network, but refuse to connect. Although, I am able to connect to an unsecured networks. All other media that connected to my wireless network works fine. Also I have noticed that wile running wizard the: "Use IEE8021x network access control" is checked and gray so I am unable to uncheck it. Maybe here is the problem.. no clue. Appreciate any suggestion.
Hi,
I can confirm I have the same problem.
Not only with Touch HD but also with HTC Rapheal.
If I find a solution I will let you know.
I had this problem too. In the wizard you have to specify it as a 'worknetwork', not 'internet'. The 'internet' option is for public (secured) networks like on a café. Then again, maybe you did this already. I have a WEP encryption.
You might also want to check, if your HD connects at all by turning off encryption in your WLAN router.
If your HD connects fine, then check in Advanced Config under the "Network" section, if you have WPA authentication enabled. My ROM had this disabled. After I enabled this option and made a soft-reset, my HD could connect to my WPA2(AES) secured network.
If everything else fails, you might try this free supplicant: http://www.securew2.com/products/
Please, report back if and how you resolved the problem !
None of the sugestions here (post #3, #4 and #5) solved my problem.
It's still not possible to connect to a secured network.
Tried without MAC filtering and vissible network but no joy.
I use WPA-PSK with a network key.
Unsecured it connects fine.

I had the same problem with my Linksys Wrt54g Router using WPA-PSK, no matter what I tried it just would not connect. Without encryption or WEP encryption it worked just fine. Did set Wifi to performance oriented on the HD since that seems to have helped others but still no success.....
Here's the rub: I had installed Schaps Advanced Config tool before and had enabled WPA authentication under network. In a last attempt I set WPA Auth. to disabled, did a soft reset.....activated Wifi, entered my (27 character) passphrase and...my HD connects to my router using WPA-PSK and MAC-filtering without a problem...so that might be worth checking as well...
i hav no problem conneting my blackstone to my linksys wrt610 router using wpa2-aes. maybe you hav ur mac adres filtering turned on
just my 2 cents
Ditto post #8..
I have just connected for the first time to my work network, WPA-PSK(AES) and it connected fine without any problems.
Switched on CM, waited for the phone to list the networks, selected the one I needed and then choose "work" for connection and entered our passphrase. Sync'd up without a hitch.
Just to put this out there - do not connect your phone to the pc when trying to go wifi. It is disabled when activsync is... active.
Hi,
Thanks for the help.
Yes MAC filter is enabled but I've added the adress of HD to the list so it should work.
Today I've changed the channel in my Zyxel router to channel 11 and ques what....
IT WORKS FINALLY !
Channel 11 I choose because that's what the Touch HD chooses in WLan settings.
Maybe this helps for other people as well.
Edit;
A small update to mention.
I have two devices here, Touch Pro and Touch HD.
They both connect fine now.
Also the Touch Pro seems to pick channel 11 as default channel !
I would love to see someone confirms this because it was a real bugger to me.
Edit 2;
With MAC filter enabled both devices won't connect.
Weird thing is, both devices have the same MAC adres !

Are you sure you're seeing it correctly??? MAC addresses are unique, just as telephone numbers are unique to the phone system. Same concept. No two wifi devices are supposed to have the same mac address...
I was having the same issue: not being able to connect my HD to my wireless network. Very frustrating... Then I remembered I use a controlled Access List, on my wireless router, based on MAC addresses. Once I put my HD's MAC in the list, I was able to connect.
I made a mistake.
I connected both devices to the desktop with Active sync to find out MAC.
If I give the command 'IPCONFIG /ALL' both WM devices have the same physical adress,
but after I succesfull made a wifi connection (without MAC filter) with both devices,
I noticed that the MAC adresses are different on both devices in the router config window.
I've added both adresses to MAC filter and enable.
Now everything is up and running !

it seems that the problem occurs after instaling advanced config 3.3, wich i did yesterday. for some reason it seems it mess the wifi settings.
thanks again!
i still have another problem, wich i have it since i bought the hd
i connect my laptop to my wifi router and it works great. i connect my hd to my wifi router and it works (again) great
but if i connect my hd to my laptop via usb and activesync, my laptop lose wifi connection. i reconnect it, keeps connection for few seconds and it loose it again.
any advice?
thank you!
Confirmed...
Had the same problem, Advanced Config WPA disabled works like a charm, if you enable it it actually disables it...
I connect to a Linksys broadband router with Mac filtering and WEP with no problems. Too lazy to try WPA2 because I'll have to reconfigure 3 PC's and two wireless printers. If I do try WPA(2), I post here.
I have WPA2-PSK with mac filtering and ssid broadcasting disabled. And I never had any problems, my router is linksys wag200 if it matters. Maybe you just do something wrong?

Note: This may be in a slightly different place in ActiveSync on XP.
I have Windows Mobile Device Center on Vista and I had the same trouble until I went to Mobile Device Settings > Connection Settings > check "Allow data connections on device when connected to PC"
(see attachment)
Just noticed you said laptop loses wi-fi.... I assumed HD loses wi-fi. My bad.
This may or may not help some of you, but I found out (the hard way) that the WLAN pre-shared key "passphrase" may only be 12 bytes long. Any more and it will not work.

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.

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.
regards Xes.
I can connect to all other WiFis. But I can't connect at home because I have a hidden SSID. Whenever I connect, it will just say "obtaing ip address" hang up and show "disconnected." I'd like to connect at home but also retain my hidden SSID. Do you have any suggestions?

My SSID is hidden also and I have no problem connecting to it. But I also have a MAC filter on the connections and always forget I have to add the new MAC address on my router list before it will allow it to connect. I always forget this and have to figure it out again.
My SSID is hidden too. Added my G2's MAC to the filter, and it works wihout any problem.
I'm connected now. Thanks for your help.

My HTC Desire HD Wifi has ALWAYS been working at my home wifi network.
Over the last few weeks, it has stopped working for no apparent reason. My pc as well as 3 other laptops work perfectly fine...
When I try to connect to my own wifi network at home now, it REFUSES to obtain an ip address and simply keeps disconnecting...
It however works fine elsewhere....
Anyway I can fix this problem or a simple way to manually connect to my home wifi network?
Thanks in advance...
hi
Have you checked that your security settings are the same on the router? also try and reset the router i.e. unplug for 2 mins blah blah. I know the lappys are working fine but this is what I would do.
I use to have issues like this with my HTC Hero, how i resolved it was by adding the phones MAC Code to the router software. Found in ( Security>Mac Filter ) depends on router! but is something like that. The down side is thou, you will have to add the mac codes from all your other devices to the router also, so everything connects to your ISP. It has the benifts of a more secure network.
Hmm, thanks for the possible answers so far.
It is strange. I just went to a friends house who also has wifi, I connected as normal.
It immediately connected with full reception. It seems that EVERYTHING connects and works as normal accept for my own home wifi...
I have tried resetting it, turning it on/off, it still does not want to obtain an ip address...

I would advise you against using MAC security on your router. Instead try to "forget" your home network (Settings->Wireless&networks->WiFi settings, then hold your home network and "Forget network") and then re-add your network. If this doesn't work try assigning static IP address (Settings->Wireless&networks->WiFi settings then tap "Menu" and "Advanced" but this will make connecting to hotspots more difficult (you'll have to uncheck the static address every time you need to connect).

Did you try to asign a static IP address (don't forget to test if you are connected to the internet after/if this seems to work)? Then you'll know if the problem is with the DHCP service or something else.
Ok. Sorry, I miss understood your problem! First is the router assigning ip address via dhcp as you don't state?. So the static ip method, You can try, Im here to help not say what to do and not to try..But as your pc and laptops are working I don't think the problem with dhcp.
A very quick test is to set your router to a open network and try to connect. Does this now work when you try to connect? We will work backwards to solve your problem. Also are you using a wizard cd software from the router? Or connecting to the router software via the internet explorer?
e.g 192.168.0.1 ? etc.

As for the router, it's automatic, we simply turn on wi-fi on the computer/laptop, click the wifi network, put password and simply connect as normal....
Strangely my HTC Desire HD refuses to obtain an ip.
A few days ago I went to my brothers friends house for the first time, turned on wi-fi on my phone, went onto his network, put the password and it immediately connected without any problem...
I'm 100% sure the problem lies with my old piece of **** router, well it's not mine but my fathers and I cannot exactly tell him to throw it out the window it's complete ****...

Is there any new device in the network? If there is turn off all wifi devices restart the ap and try to reconnect.
Try changing the ap name too.

Last resort might be to factory reset the router, then putting all the settings (e.g. WPA keys) back on.

The simplest way is to set your router to a open network. Then no key is needed by the phone. The phone SHOULD connect with no problems.
You then no its a key issue.

If it's not DHCP issue then it looks like authentication one. So wipe the router's configuration and if this doesn't work either I have another solution for you. It involves a hammer and an alibi
As stated, when my phone (HTC One S) is connected to my WiFi network, I can't connect with my tablet (A500, Thor ICS v170). It just keeps trying to obtain IP address and never connects.
Weird thing is, if I turn both devices off, connect my tablet to the wifi first and then connect my phone it will work. This only happens when my phone is connected first.
Is this a software issue? Is it something to do with my router and maybe a lease or some network thing? Please help..this is very annoying.

Did you check your router settings? It sounds like your DHCP is not set Automatic. Which router do you use? Making sure that you don't use static IP addresses.
Looks to me like you have a static IP configured for your a500, which conflicts with your HTC. Check settings on a500.

If he had static IP set in tablet it wouldn't try to obtain the address at all. It would just connect to the Wifi skipping that part.
@tgtoys:
I think that this can be a router incompatibility problem. Unfortunatelly not every wifi equipment is built with 100% conformance to the standards. Sometimes two devices just don't want to work with each other (and, for example, they both claim that are 802.11g compatible).
If you have a possibility then try with another router.
Other cause can be a router software misconfiguration. Router factory reset would probably help in this case but you would need to reconfigure your WAN and wifi settings. But this won't eliminate the problem if it is the hardware incompatibility.

Another problem I could think of is you have your phone's hotspot setting turned on that's why your tablet couldn't connect when there are two different Wi-Fi, that's just my guess.
Thanks all.
I am not currently using static ip on either device, and this seems to happen whenever I try to connect to Wi-Fi (home, work, and friends house), which is why I'm so confused. I will check settings on router when I get back. I haven't changed anything on the router other than add a wpa2 password...

The issue I experienced was the following.
I entered a WPA Password that had a large number of characters. Although the router accepted the number of characters, once I wanted to connect more than one or two devices I experienced the same problem as you.
I did get a WiFi connection but did not receive an IP and the connection was dropped.
After reducing the number of characters (but increasing the complexity) it worked fine.
Btw. it was a Netgear router.
I resolved the issue at work by assigning my phone and tablet with different static IP addresses on the router. How will this effect connecting to other routers?

When you say "other routers" you mean at your home? Or at other places like public wifi? If at your home, you can assign static IP addresses but not at public wifi because you can't control the router settings.
