Hi
earlier today i installed the MIUI mod and it is pretty awesome. Problem is when i try to connect to a WiFi network it gets stuck on obtaining ip address.
Any solution?
thanks
you need to set static IP for it. I was facing same issue so had to set static ip for both my home and work wifi.

every now and then i get the following message appear
Unable to obtain Server assigned IP address. try again later or enter an ip address in Network settings.
message screen shot attached
any ideas what is causing this message. wifi works fine so i do not think it is that.
any thoughts or help would be great
Thanks
Do you have DHCP Enabled on the internet connection of your PC? Or do you have static IP address?
Nope, not sure why, i get this sometimes when i try to conenct to a wifi hotspot that has no encryption but static ip address of a weird range
ICS was turned on my dial up connection at work. i have disable this now. lets see if it solves the problem i will leave it a couple of hours and then up date the board
Thanks

I had the same issue with my mda when i first got it. each time it occurred i wiped it.

heres some info from another forum, unsure if it will help or not

Hello to all
I have problems trying to connect through wifi on my new 8125.
After reading a lot of threads, i downloaded a program called hitchiker, who solves the wifi connection a lot easier and faster, but i keep getting the same error, the wifi connection appears, it connects but can not solve the ip address with the dhcp server and fails...
Can anyone told me if this is a hardware problem or a firmware issue?
my router is a netgear WG602 v2 with the last firmware available.
Thanks and happy new year to all!!
ddo you have mac filtering on? if so try turning it off
No, i used to have a wep security password, but i reset all settings on the router to factory, to try to connect.
i also have a laptop and a psp and both connect great!!
dont know what the problem is here, but its frustating...
I make it to work
first i did a hard reset, then i check on the log of the access point, and it was going through and forwarding the connection to the adsl router, but the problem apparently was on the dhcp server on the router.
i add a fixed ip, and now it works
still not working on dhcp but at least its working...

I'm having almost the same problem.
First I've tried to connect on my open lan in my house. I could connect, but couldn't get an IP automaticaly.
Today I went to the mall to try some open wifi lan. A friend of mine, with a Nokia n80 succsessfully connected with one of the hotspots. I've tried and couldn't get an IP. Suddenly, don't know why, I got connected, but couldn't surf at the web.
Then I realized that the fixed Ip that I've set before was still on. Changing it for dinamic didn't work.
So, I still can't get an IP.
Any Ideas?
Hi everybody,
I have the same issue for a long time.
I connect to a wifi connection with DHCP enabled.
My Wifi connection works correctly, DHCP assigns my device an IP address but DNS stays empty in Wifi options.
I succeed connecting to a website if following these steps:
-I manually enter a DNS server IP.
-This stops the wifi connection
-I restart wifi
But then if I stop wifi and start it again, I cannot surf anymore.
I have to manually change DNS again (switch main and secondary DNS IP addresses)
Am I the only one to have the issue, or has someone heard of a solution ?
Any help welcome .
No one has an answer to the same problem I have too ....
No DNS if wifi is connected, on 3G it is all working fine ...
No one tests for DNS problems in cooked roms on this site ...
i would look into the settings of the wifi router to discover why it's not providing a valid dns
as it's normaly does when the wifi is set correctly
That certainly sounds like it could be the issue.
In case anyone is looking for quick and reliable DNS servers, try these 4.2.2.2 and 4.2.2.4. I seem to remember they are AT&T's but please don't quote me on that.
I experience a very strange behaviour in my eyes and did not yet found a solution here.
Conditions:
-WinMo 6.1 on SE XPERIA X1 using different cooked ROMs, maybe also the official ROM
-automatic SE or manual connection setup used for t-mobile DE
Error characteristics:
-data connection itself (GPRS connection either on 2G or 3G network) is active
-applications can't connect to any site (opera, htc weather, quickgps)
-but if IP addresses are used instead of names then connections to a web-site are successful (A direct IP address http://209.85.129.132/ does work, but not http://www.google.de/ e.g.)
-the error is somehow reproducible, but it can not exactly figured out under which condition it appears
-the error stays after power off or soft reset, only flashing the rom new helps
-the error does start after a while (hours/days)
-the error seems to be somehow in conjunction with switching network type between GPRS, WLAN and using the Internet connection of a PC connected with ActiveSync, but there is no unambiguous correlation distinguishable when the error starts
solutions:
-my first idea was that DNS service on the X1 is somehow not working, so I used openDNS specific adresses for the DNS server instead of the server-assigned addresses, but the error stays
I hope you have any ideas for me?
confirm error by my Xperia
Hello yesterday i posted the same error by a rom Thread,

Hi everybody,
I have exactly the same problem with o2 Germany. I tried it with the open dns servers but still the same network error occurs... Has anybody solved this?
Hello,
I have a similar problem when I'm using for my wifi static ip and manually settings for DNS. At home I'm using static ip settings for my wifi, so after i closed my Wifi connection on the Blackstone my Opera at GPRS/3G connection will not disolving the URL like www.google.de but when I'm using the IP it works fine. My workaround is to delete the static IP settings and the entry for DNS and the the desolving of the URL is working.
problem solved

thanks bieza, that worked for me as well . i had only static IP (with auto DNS) for WiFi, and dns was failing for cellular connection (EDGE). changed wifi IP back to auto, and problem fixed.
interestingly, when DNS was not working for EDGE, i could use ICS as usual. i was browsing on PC, but due to DNS problem nothing was working on the same phone.
it's a touch (ELF 64/128) running on ONYX 4.6.

Hi all,
Since I have unsintalled wifi profile from my HTC HD2 I can't seem to have a working wifi connection. I tryed with several network but with no success...
I have installed WifiMonster to try to have better error message, and it seem that the problem is always when the phone is trying to get a new IP address from the wifi router.
I have put all my network adapter with dynamic IP and have take care to clear all DNS address. I really don't no what to do. Is it possible that wifiprofile has change some settings that I can't have access to set them back ?
Thank for your help.
