do I need to enable some setting in order for me to see the 3G or E icons next to the band signal strength we see on the top of the home screen?
Usually they disappear when connected to wifi. After you disconnect it reappears.
It will also not show up if your apn is not configured.

Are you using a rooted Rogers x10a?

nope debranded X10i
Maybe you don't have the right apn settings.
Turn your wifi on, Go to settings, wireless controls, mobile networks then hit auto internet settings and hopefully it should get the settings for you!
hope it helps!!

I have the stock Android 2.1 on my phone and I rooted it but nothing else. For some reason my phone will not connect to my home WiFi. I put in the WEP key and it still says disconnected. Not sure if root had anything to do with it since I only assumed WiFi was working before I rooted. Any ideas? WEP is right, not sure what the "Key Index" is...

Root has nothing to do with it.

I would hard reset.

Is your router setup to only allow N connections? If so, the default wifi is only for G and B networks unless you have updated the kernel.
Could it be because you're a dirty gator? Sorry, I know that's not helpful, please forgive me. Go Noles!!!

Harrison, I am certain that's not the problem.

I hit connect but the status under the WiFi setting never changes from disconnected.

Well first of all root def.ly is not the reason. I would try a few things such as reboot the phone and router. Next I would try to disable the security on the router just for testing. see if you can connect without any key. Also try connecting to an open Wifi connection that is available. This open would narrow down your problem to either the phone or your home network. If you are able to connect to other wifi connection then the issue is not with the phone but your home network.
Mine seems to not want to connect to the wifi until I go into Settings - Wifi, then suddenly it decides my wireless router is there and connects. The only other app on my phone that can activate the wireless radio is Wifi Analyzer, but I have that feature turned off.
My WiFi has suddenly stopped connecting to hotspots. It works just fine at home but for some reason it won't connect to the Starbucks next door to my work. Any help would be greatly appreciated

try downloading the advanced wifi configurator. or when u connect, go to your browser and accept the terms and conditions (usually hotspots have a simple page that lists the conditions, once u accept you will be able to use the internet)

I'm using wolfbreak CM 6.1.3 v06. The only problem is that my WiFi symbol doesn't show up & when I go in the browser it doesn't take me to the page to accept the terms. So I use my data from my ATT plan. Sometimes it works & sometimes I keep seeing a pop-up saying WiFi autofix when I can't connect

Do u blade wifi fix on your ROM?
that might work.
Also, have u tried connecting through the wifi part of settings and search for a new connection. This might seem dumb bit try that. Not just letting the phone connect itself.

I do have the blade WiFi fix. I've tried connecting every way possible but still no luck. It now shows the WiFi icon in my status bar & it also says I'm connected to the Starbucks WiFi but when I open the browser it says I'm not connected.

Blade comes with the Rom.
To OP, try a different browser.

Tried a different browser, same problem. I really don't know wats goin on or how to fix it. Any other ideas??

so when you go to settings>wireless & networks>wifi settings, is the box next to wifi checked? and if yes does it show any available networks? If its off how does it respond when you check the box to turn it on. More details would help people solve your problem.
If its just turned off and you need to turn it back on manually everytime just put a power control widget on one of your home screens to turn it off/on easier.

wifi is turned on on my phone. when i got into wifi settings and look at the available access points, it says im connected to the starbucks hotspot. but when i open my browser(default browser, firefox) it says page cannot be displayed cuz i aint connected. ive tried everything i can think of. ive turned off the wifi then turned it back on, rebooted the phone, tried different settings. i just dont know why it wont connect to the starbucks hotspot next door to my work anymore. it works perfectly fine at home.
Thanks for all the help but I figured out it is the Starbucks that has the problem. I can't connect my ipod or laptop. I'm just happy its not my phone. But thanks again for all the tips

Has anyone had their unrooted x not be able to connect to their home network via wireless. All my other devices connect but my x shows a blue wireless connection bit everytime I try to go on the web out says unable to connect. It connects at other places most times.
Thanks

Mine will drop in and out at home, but normally no other place. The odd thing is that no other devices drop out at my home, just the Droid X

I know this is something you have already thought of but is your wifi passworded and have you added the password correctly

You might check your router to see if you have access control enabled. I have frequently found that to be the cause when a new item refuses to otherwise connect. First check login, password, then the router permissions. Be sure to recycle your router if changes are made.
Hi all,
My phone's wifi keeps changing the AP to another one that I have connected, these two APs are all in my room, so the signal strength is same. How could I prevent that? I need the access point I deserved, not itself change to another I previously connected.
Thanks!

Not sure what you mean exactly as you seem to have be missing words(or using the wrong word) in your sentences, but I think that you should go to wifi settings, click the one you don't want it to connect to anymore, and hit Forget.
Press on the SSID you don't want and press forget. Keep the one you want connected.
almost the same problem, but in my situation is 2.4/5G band from same AP i want to use 5G but the phone always jump to 2.4G one after some time.

I have a similar question. I have both my university's wi-fi and home wi-fi stored to my phone's memory. The university wi-fi shows still a signal on my flat occassionally and my phone connects to it automatically. Is there a way (without third party app) to tell my phone that I prefer using my home wifi over my university wifi?

An interesting read.
Maomao you can set that to the one you want. In WiFi settings, menu then advanced.
