Hi all. I am using a 16GB nexus 7 with stock 4.1.2. I have a very peculiar issue with wifi in my house. I have BSNL Broadband and I am using the ITI modem provided by BSNL which is connected to a Netgear Rangemax dual band router (DGND3300v2) for wifi. Now, every device in my house works with this setup, even my Galaxy SIII with stock 4.1.1 works absolutely perfect with it. However, the Nexus 7 connects to the network but the wifi symbol goes grey and nothing works on the Nexus 7. I tried using only my Netgear router without the BSNL modem and that works fine with my Nexus 7, however I cannot go with that setup since the Netgear router somehow doesn't work properly with my BSNL connection and I have to have it hooked up to the BSNL router.
Is there any way around this problem? Please hep me guys!!!

My G2 connects to my home wireless network which is wireless n, with no problems. Might you have a MAC filter on your router that needs to be updated with the MAC address of the phone?
I have no issues with using N on my G2, using a Netgear WNR2000v2 as my router.

im a network admin, so the obvious has already been tried. if mac filtering was enabled, that would prevent from getting an ip address, not from seeing the ssid
N connection is great on my D-Link DIR-655.

i dont understand why it wont even detect the network. did you guys have to change a setting on the phone for wifi? my laptop doesnt have any problems, im using it now as we speak.
The wireless N on the phone is only 2.4GHz. It won't connect to a 5GHz network.

i was just coming back to post that. my dual band router has been flashed with ddwrt and the 2.4 frequency is repeating my neighbors 2.4 ghz wifi. so the only open frequency for me to connect to on this router is the 5.4, so i plugged a linksys poe ap into a poe switch and now my phone is connected to an n network thats 2.4 ghz. ya...
I have my Tattoo rooted with 1.6 (can't recall the ROM name) with build number 1.67.405.6. Almost everything works fine except the connection with my home WiFi network. It's a PPPoE connection through ADSL modem. Next in line is the Netgear WG602 v3 WiFi router. At the beginning I couldn't connect at all so I changed the router's ROM to DD-WRT. Now I can connect with the router but no connection to the internet whatsoever. I can ping my router through my Tattoo, I can even open the 192.168.1.1 and mess around with its software but no connection to the internet. It is only limited to my Tattoo as I can connect through my laptop, through my other mobile (HTC S710) and also I can connect my Tattoo with any other WiFi (Secured or Open) with no problems at all.
I tried with no Security, with WEP, with WPA-PSK to no avail. Any other clues?
try running htc mail while you are using your wifi throuf your tattoo it worked for me
What is supposed to happen if I do that? I'm trying it as soon as I get home btw.
Nothing happened
Hi all...sorry for my interference but this problem is similar to mine.
I'm going mad from many weeks trying connect my Huawei Ideos (U8150) to my home wlan through a netgear VG602v3 AP. No way to do this.
Wifi works from my laptop and from my girlfriend's laptop, but from ideos it doesn't.
I turned off all wireless device in my house, I tried with/without WPA, I tried open network from channel #1 to channel #13, tried changing ssid and I also tried praying .
There is a weak wifi near here: it is on channel #1 and its power is between -89 and -82db. My wifi power (data from kismet) is between -50 and -18 db and is configured on channel #11.
In any cases, even if I put my Ideos near to AP antenna the story is ever the same:
- Ideos indentify the wifi network
- Ideos acquire the IP
- I open the browser or the android market and...
- Ideos lose connection...and so on.
I downloaded from work wifi (crypted with WPA) a wifi scanner from app store: it shows me the neighbour's weak wifi and my wifi network which appear and disappear recurrently.
Please, someone helps me (without suggest to buy another AP!!), any suggestions are welcome!!
Have you tried logging into the router and checking the privileges for devices. Some of them have a security element that restricts the use of the internet on newly connected devices until the setting is changed. I had a similar problem with a new laptop.
hope it helps.
I checked every setting to no avail. I still think somehow that my problem is with my router or adsl modem which doesn't connect automatically with PPPoE and Android doesn't have any command or software to initiate a PPPoE connection.
Other than that... Can't find any solution. Until then, I use connectify on my Win7 laptop. The thing is that I have to keep my laptop switched on as long as I'm in the house.

thank you for suggestion. I looked in depth but I did not found the option of which you were talking about. The unique solution still remains change the AP!!!
WiFi and Netgear Router
I think I finally found the answer. It appears Netgear routers support something called WiFi Multimedia. Its a QOS methodology. I disabled WiFi MM or WIMM as its sometimes called, as well as Internet QOS and all my problems connecting to web pages, the market, etc. through WiFi disappeared.
Strange that older versions of the ROM supported WIMM (or ignored it) and newer ones don't. But that solved the problem for me with no real degradation of performance on any of my other computers.
Good luck.
Is anyone else having problems connecting to an 802.11n network? My 802.11n network will not show up under networks. I've got no problems connecting to my g network, but cannot connect to my n network.
I've tried disabling all security, 2.4ghz and 5ghz and resetting the router with no luck. Network is working fine on my laptop and desktop.
I've tried using wifi analyzer and still nothing.
Any suggestions?
Hi Friends,
My device is GT-I9500 stock (non rooted) and I updated to stock Android 5.0.1 . I have both Data and WiFi enabled and Wifi connects to Comcast Xfinity Wifi router. Also the Smart Network Switch is enabled. The device get connected only few times but most of time that connects to Data.
If I switch off data then the WiFi does not work most of the time.
I can access the same Wifi from my laptop and no issues. Any help or anything that I am missing here?
Thanks.
