wifi problem

hello
me and 2 people that i know have that problem
i think that the problem in the device
i hope that the problem namely software and not hardware

...please, tell us more, like:
¹ brand, type, rom, radio,
² is the connection problem with a desktop, router?

the device is htc tytn
the problem is the connection with the router
rom 1.18.255.3
radio 1.03.03.10

I have a problem between Htc TyTN and a router (Livebox Inventel) when the router is in WEP Configuration.
WAP is OK and No security is OK
But i don't know if the problem is the htc or the router

the problem is the HTC!!!

the problem is the HTC!!!

Are you sure ? :?:

sure

Hard reset and try to connect again.
Also make sure you don't have any MAC address policy restriction on the AP.

there is signal but it is not connected, even after HR

So your AP has a MAC address restriction, you will not be able to conect until you add the MAC address of your HTC device in the MAC address access control list of your AP.

hello pof and thanks about your answer
can you tell me what to do, but i need you to tell me slowly and clear
because that i am not understands the wors such "AP" & "mac" that listed.
thank's again

AP == Access Point, from what I see in your previous comments yours is a router (Livebox Inventel).
MAC == A unique identifier of every network device (similar to IMEI in phones), it consists of 6 hex octets, one example could be: 12:34:56:78:90:AB
So, what I say is that your Livevox Inventel has a "protection" so it only allows to connect known MACs, and the MAC address of your TyTN wifi card is "unknown" for your wifi router, you have to enter the administration console of the router and add the MAC address of your TyTN to the list, or remove the MAC protection.
Hope it is clear now

hello paf
ok i see that i have MAC address for WAN, LAN, WIRLESS
my router is DLINK 624+
how can i remove the MAC protection?
again thank you?
mordof

i see that DHCP is on Disabled
Static DHCP is used to allow DHCP server to assign same IP address to specific MAC address
and i still have MAC addres
so.....?

thank you my friend it is working

lol! you see... it was not TyTN, it was _your_ router :roll:

Wifi but no Internet

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.

It also happened to me. Turns out it was the router I was using. I bought a new one earlier today and problem solved!

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.

Can't log in to my own wifi

Hi my problem is that, I can't connect my own wifi network. It stops at "obtaining IP adress from...". My laptop can connect to it and i can connect with my phone to other wlan networks too. Could anyone help me? Thanks

Are you sure that you typed password correctly?
Maybe you have mac adress filtering?

I guess u have DCHP enabled and not static IP right? Try push and hold your network's name on the available networks list and then "Forget Network". Then rescan and try connecting. Sometimes it works.

go into you router and set the DNS?

hi the password is correct I've updated my phone to the latest version because i thought that maybe the software in my phone gone wrong.

log into your router (normally 192.168.1.1), and check if you have DCHP enabled.
or you could try rebooting your router and connecting your phone first then your laptop.

Hi I1ve tried both solutions but none of them works:/ I don't know what should i do. my girlfriend can't connect with her optimus too

sounds liek you router isn't assigning IP correctly, try restarting it and checking for firmware updates

Thanks for all now it's working (after a firmware update)

Cant obtain IP adress...please help.

FINALY today i get my galaxy s2. now you will have my suportt guys
But i have a "problem"
My router is set to WPA/WPA2 PSK...when i enter my password it will not connect,just obtaining ip adress.
when i manualy put my mobile's MAC adress in router then its working,but its scaning every 5sec...
So can someone please say why i canot conect trough my password and why it keeps scaning after im allready conected(but only trough MAC adrees) tnx

You seem to be confusing a few terms, but it would appear you have MAC address filtering set up in your router. That's generally a false sense of security. It's normal for the wifi to be scanning even when connected.

ah so...i didnt know this. But altough im conected,i canot access internet...it must be something with my router...anyone knows?
i conect to my laptop normaly...

sometimes my router doesn't connect to my phone but does to my laptop as well, and sometimes visa versa, try rebooting router and devices. that usually works for me,

[Q] "obtainig ip address" loop, please help

hi guys,
so i bought my Lg g2 yesterday and i can't connect to my wifi network, the phone says obtaining ip address over and over again. i searched the internet and found that is a very common problem. it has something to do with my router so i installed a firmware update. the router (dlink dwl 700ap) is borrowed from our cable company and is already quite old (the newest firmware dated from 2008). since updating didn't work, tried to change every possile setting in the router menu, also didn't work. (i came across a setting saying dchp disabled(by default), tried changing it to enable but some devivces could not connect anymore). i tried some apps from google play but non of them changed anything. i also tried to use static but i could not acces the web (i think the static setting were coorect since i copied them from my "ipconfig" in windows, wath i found weird is that the ip adress of the router said 195.168.0.50 while the ip on my computer said 85.XXXXXXXX.). so i factory resetted my G2, didn't work.
i can connect with every device to my router (s3, ipod touch, lumia 720, iphone 5s) and i can connect my lg g2 to every other network.
so should i return my lg g2, call my cable network or ?
can anyone help me ?
thanks a lot, i really appreciate it
ps sorry for my bad enlish

Turning on dchp will try to auto assign ips so make sure all devices are set to auto or reserve the ip at the router level if you wish some to be static.
As for static ip settings. Make sure the ip you're trying to get the phone isn't assigned.
Default gateway (from the information you've given) 192.168.0.1

thanks for the quick reply! i used the ip adress of the router (192.168.0.50) and your default gateway and still can't connect the web.
as for dhcp, i really don't understand how dhcp is disable as a default on my router and still every single device can connect and us the internet at the same time

default it should be on. Here in th UK routers ship as such.
Try a different ip. After that it's beyond my knowledge

still not working, thanks for trying. wishing i never bought a lg g2 in the first place

Anyone else got the same problem ?

Can you connect to the hotspot on another phone?
Might be a stupid suggestion but since you asked, the password on your G2 could be wrong for your router :/

Yeo! Hmm I would say it's a problem with the router, esp since you can connect to other WiFi networks from your phone. Have you tried resetting the router itself? Drastic but I can offer no advice from the settings standpoint

yes did a reset, no change. Are you sure it is the router because i never had any problem with it.

I cannot be *sure* of anything but if your phone can connect to other devices perfectly well then the most obvious source of error is the router
You mentioned that toggling dhcp on breaks the connection for other devices - does it fix the connection for your g2?
I took a look at my router settings for static IP address and I have no idea how to set up static addresses haha.. (Not sure how your other devices connect if dhcp is off as I know next to nothing about networking)

i had that problem "obtaining ip address" when i use MAC filter, which allow only registered MAC address connect to the router. i registered my LG g2 MAC address to the router and the problem gone.

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"
