WiFI only local access, no internet. - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hello,
I recently re-arranged my home network and now I can't get my android devices (HD2 and Acer A511) connect to the internet via WiFi.
I didn't brought any new devices, I just configured them in another way.
Old configuration
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
New configuration
Problem
Every client can access the internet, regardless with which wifi network or cabled network he's connected to.
Except for android devices:
Wifi 1: android devices connect, get an IP form DHCP and can access the internet
Wifi 2: android devices connect, get an IP from DHCP and can't access the internet. They are only able to access the 192.168.2.X range.
I already googled for days and tested everything I could imagine but I just can't find the error.
Already tested
DHCP server: Works fine in every subnet
DNS server: Also works fine. Every device can solve / resolve domains
Checked IPs, MAC addresses
Other WiFi keys, security modes (including none)
Static IPs
Redirect every port to one device
Windows and Linux clients (fully working)
Has anyone here an idea why this is happening and most important: how to fix it?
PS: No I can't change the configuration back. I had to do it because of my room arrangement.

Wpa2 enterprise / peap WiFi support

I'm surprised to see that wpa2 enterprise isn't supported. It would be great if I could connect to my office wireless and access the network. Anyway to make this work or support enterprise? Thanks

Works for me, sure you have your settings right
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
well thats sorta the thing. I cant input the correct settings cause I dont have the options to. I need wpa2 enterprise and all that is available is wpa2 personal. I dont get the fields to enter the correct info without choosing enterprise.
I'm having the same issue. Information about the network I can't connect to is found below:
SSID: eduroam
Security Mechanism: WPA2/AES-CCMP, WPA2/enterprise, WPA/TKIP or WPA-enterprise
Authentication: PEAP (Protected EAP, EAP-PEAP)
Authenticationprotocol: MS-CHAP-v2
Normally when I connect to the same network with my laptop, I need to put in a username and a password, but I'm not able to put in any username on the phone.
Do you need any apps to solve this problem?
Edit: Didn't notice this wasn't the desire forums (was redirected here from making a new thread). I've got a Desire with Android 2.2.
I have the same problem , any ideas ?
Would this not be WPA2 Enterprise or is it something different? I just use Personal at home so don't know.
Edit... oops, shows my name

[Q] Correct IP settings for Wireless Tether??

From everything I read, it seems that Wireless Tether only supports Ad Hoc mode with the Samsung Epic (DK28) using Froyo.
That said, what should my IP settings be, since DHCP isn't supported with Ad Hoc????
I am using the 192.168.2.0 network, so I assumed that my device should be 192.168.2.2 and the default GW should be 192.168.2.1. Is there a Sprint DNS server I should be using?

Sure it is. What device are you using where it isn't?

Lame, that's a limitation of ThinkVantage.
One option would be to just disable it and use the built-in Windows XP wireless configuration manager. There's instructions for disabling it, or you can just uninstall "ThinkVantage Access Connections" entirely.
If you want to do static IP though, here's the parameters of the default network:
Network 192.168.2.0
Netmask: 255.255.255.0
Broadcast: 192.168.2.255
Gateway: 192.168.2.254
Nameserver: 192.168.2.254
The DHCP server hands out addresses in the range 192.168.2.100-105, so you should configure the client's static IP to use something outside this range (192.168.2.1-99, 106-253). For example, 192.168.2.1 works fine.
Note that with a static IP you won't get a client connection notification on the phone since that relies on DHCP. This also means the MAC ACL won't work, so leave that disabled.

WiFi Disconnection problems

Hi
I've always had this WiFi problem that after about 5 minutes of usage the internet connection disappears on my phone but the WiFi logo stays.
This forces me to disable and reenable WiFi on my phone.
Later I discovered that this only happens with WPA secured access points.
WEP and non secured access points work fine.
I tested my phone with 3 routers. Same results for all. On my first 2 routers it wasn't a problem because I just set up WEP security.
With my new router I cannot do this because it has wireless N which doesn't support WEP...
Also this happens will all ROMs, even the stock ROM.
After Google'ing this issue I found out that I am not the only one having this issue...
Does anyone know if there's a fix for this?
No one knows what the issue is?
Wifi works fine here using WPA2 and AES, my router is an ASUS RT-N16 running Tomato USB firmware.
Alright, so I decided to run logcat to capture the moment when the connection drops.
Here's the image of the log window:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
How I tested this:
1) Ran adb logcat in Windows.
2) Enabled WiFi connection.
3) Opened up YouTube, selected a 10 minute long video.
4) After about 4 minutes, the video froze, because it ran out of buffer.

Maybe you should try the WiFi libs from the FreeXperiaProject? Or a different ROM.

SSH into Nexus over Wifi

Anyone tried doing it? Do you get quite a bit of lag? I am connecting over my local Wifi and it is laggy.
(Turning off the screen increases lag a lot, but I guess that is because the CPU is slowed down, so that is OK.)
Well, I'm struggling to connect to mine
I know it's not my network because I can connect to my Iconia (on ICS), and my Iphone via wifi.
What rom are you using and how are you starting the ssh server on your Nexus?
As soon as I get it going I'll let you know about lag.
(My Iconia (on wifi) is very usuable - with only minor lag during login, but nowhere near as fast as my wired logins))

OK, I guess it is normal then, for me, it is usable, but slower than over ethernet. Pings are around 90ms, so that's just the way it is then.
I tried the DropBear SSH Server, SSHDroid just hung at initialisation. I also used a chrooted Ubuntu install with its own server, both were comparable in speed. Also I am using stock ROM.

[Q] USB Tethering GN3 to ASUS RT-AC56R Router

Has anyone successfully connected a Verizon GN3 to an ASUS RT-AC56R router? I have been trying various settings for 3 days without any luck. If you know how to make this work (which it is supposed to do), then please post how you did it.
I am aware that I could use the GN3 as a WiFi hotpot, but I have a number of wired components throughout the house that are not WiFi capable.
Thanks

In order for you todo that you would have to set your router up as a repeater. Might be able to look up how todo that

Thanks.
The repeater mode only functions as a WiFi repeater. I'm looking to utilize a cable to connect via USB to phone. It sure seems to indicate that I *should* be able to make it work, somehow. For example:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I know that the phone itself works in USB tether mode, because USB tethering works fine when connected to a single computer.
