First off, I did try multiple searches with different keywords to find an answer and came up with nothing so here is the N00b question of the day.
Stock Nexus 7, connected fine last night to home router. Go to work this morning, Wifi is enabled, but no internet connection is found. Turned on my hotspot for my MyTouch4G slide, and still no dice. Any ideas? Can't dowload a Wifi analyzer with out wifi

Hey guys, newbie user and android owner.
I picked up the vibrant the other day. So far its rooted, android-wifi-tether, and i performed the gps fix on it.
I really like the phone, but whenever I connect to my wifi router, it stops all data (android market, web browser, etc) It says connected and doesn't show any signs of problems. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks for any help you can throw my way.
Hmm. Mine has problems with "No Connection" when it's connected to my wireless at home, but I just figured it was my router's fault since my computer gives me the "unable to load web page" thing all the time too. My router sucks, though. Maybe your does too?
Yeah, mine does it sometimes too. I just turn on airplane mode, and turn it back off...works fine after that. Its a hit or miss issue.
Mine works fine running off if my router. Btw, do you actually have the wi-fi tether working? Because I thought we needed a working kernal for that to work.

Yup that did it for me. All I had to do was turn on airplane mode and then turn it back off. Wifi working for me now. Thanks.

Please tell us how you got wifi tethering to work without a custom kernel.

Hello everyone,
I checked the forums and I haven't seen anything like this, but I'm hope my situation isn't unique.
So I got the Nexus 4 and I love it. I have it linked to my wi-fi at home and the campus wi-fi. Every time I got to the college campus it links just fine. However, when I get to the home wi-fi, it sometimes takes a while for the phone to connect to the wi-fi, or say that the wi-fi is out of range.... even when standing next to the router.
I've tried rebooting the router, rebooting the phone. When it connects it's awesome. Sometimes I have to turn off the wi-fi on the N4 then back on again for it to connect.
Does anyone know what this may be? Anything would be great help.
P.S. - everything else works on my wi-fi just fine. A couple Rokus, a notebook, and etc.
Thank you

Nexus 4 has several flaky wifi issues. When I first got mine I could not get it to connect to my home router at all. Then it just started and has been working fine ever since. You may try changing your frequency settings on the router or using a different security protocol. In my case it seems once it got connected the situation was resolved. Good luck!

I tried changing the frequency, seeing that my neighbor was on the band as me. I'm not sure if that did the trick, but now my N4 seems to be picking up the signal a little more quickly.
Thank you for your suggestion.

Same issue here. Sometimes I'm connected to campus wifi, I drive all the way home and look at my phone, it's still trying to connect to campus wifi. I have to turn wifi off then back on for it to disconnect and auto connect to my home wifi.

My fix for wifi problems on Nexus 7
Hi There,
I just got my Nexus 7 (wifi only), and it immediately connected to my home wifi. No problems. Until I tried doing ANYTHING on the web for more than 5 minutes. The wifi connection failed. All apps that used wifi were out of luck.
I have a Netgear Router, WGT624 V.4 and under Wireless settings, it was set to "Auto 108Mbps". I changed this to "b and g" and it has worked perfectly since then.
Try changing the mode for your router and you might have the same success that I did.
Good luck,
Sean
Since the last official update I'm always having problems when I turn on my wifi hotspot to use my other phone with the Zenfone Zoom Data.
When I turn it on it doesn't work, my connected devices show "no connection" when connected to the wifi hotspot, I manage to get it working always swearing while I reset the wifi and data settings, I turn on and off the data and the wifi hotspot. Sometimes I have to go to the VPN and re-tap on the correct VPN in use (that is already selected) and then the connection will stat working on my connected devices. Often I have to repeat those steps many times.
The other weird thing is that when I'm using the Zoom S as wifi hotspot, the connection on the phone itself stop working. It works only on the connected devices.
Never had those problems with previous android phones I had (several Nexus, a Note 3 and an Ulefone Power). I use the wifi hotspot really often since I still use my Note 3 and this is really frustrating.
EDIT Maybe I posted this in the wrong section. My mistake sorry. If some mod can move this I'll be glad.
try adding ",dun" to the access point types under the APN settings. I had a similar issue that fixed it.
Last week I used my Asus 3 Zoom to give my laptop internet by Wifi hotspot. Worked flawlessly.
