[Q] wifi connects but no data

I have searched the web and cannot find anything that works. I have the a500 and go to Penn State. My EVO 4G connects with the free wifi there with no problem but my tablet will not work.
My tablet will connect but the indicator on the bottom right that is normally blue will be gray. It will have both up and down arrows blinking but it stays gray and says it is connected.
I rooted my tablet and tried the adhoc patch but that didn't do anything to help. I have no problem connecting at home. I am currently using my evo as a wifi tether for the tablet while at school but it kills my phones battery. Is there anything else I can try?

my first move
First go into your wifi settings and forget the network settings - then try again.
If that does not work - contact the support people for the network you are trying to connect to.

N7 won't connect to wi-fi after I wake it up after a while

Hi I've got problem with my N7 and maybe anyone else experienced it and have some solutions to this ?
After not using my N7 for little longer when I try to wake it up it doesn't connect to wi-fi automatically. I mean the wi-fi icon is there and wi-fi is ON but the icon is grey. I have to turn the wi-fi off and on in settings then icon in right upper corner of the screen gets blue again and I can browse internet etc.
It's not really a big deal but it can be frustrating sometimes, especially when you wait ages for page to load and then you realize that wi-fi is dead again.
I've got my N7 only two days but this already happened like 5 times.
Got other devices that connect to the same router and they are all working fine. HTC HD7, Nitendo 3DS, Acer Laptop, PS3.
Using D-Link router with WPA-Personal WPA-2 Only security settings.
Any idea how to fix this ?

Mine is grey as well after waking, but I can browse just fine with the Grey icon... No idea why.

No problem here with Linksys WRT54GS running OpenWRT firmware and also my phone's hotspot. It's probably the crappy firmware in your Dlink access point router. Try a newer version from Dlink or try an alternative from OpenWRT, Tomato, etc.

I've got latest firmware on my router.
Tried to change settings in my N7 with static IP but that didn't helped either.

same issue here
I have the same problem on my N7. It's the same whether I'm using it on my Airport Extreme or wrt54g.
Wake from sleep, see WiFi status icon all gray, no internet access. Turn WiFi off then on, reconnects and I'm on my way. Very annoying after the 50th+ time.

Mine wakes up in airplane mode and I have to press the power button to turn airplane mode off.

When the wifi icon is grey, it just mean that you´re not connected to Google Servers, but you can still use the internet.
When it connect to google servers the icon turns blue.
And i think that when the screen goes off it disconnect from google servers, and then it try to connect again when the device is waked up.

I did not know that. I learned something new today!
Bit ot, what about the bluetooth icon? Most of the time it is gray connected with tablet talk. Sometimes blue? Really thought the icons just did not refresh right away.

[Q] My Nexus 4 conect in Wi-Fi but don't access web

Guys, recently bought a Nexus 4 and it normally connects via wifi but can not connect.
I was using the Android 4.2.2 OTA updated to Android 4.3 and the problem persists.
The Nexus 4 connects normally, but the icons of wifi connection and carrier signal are gray instead of blue and even trying to install applications via Google Play or simply access a site via browser do not work and accuse the connection fails.
I was tested and the router's signal is good and other equipment that I usually work (other Android smartphones and notebook).
My router is standard G and I use WPA2.

Oddly enough, I have the Nexus just 3 days and only had access to the router so far from home, but today I'll look for a router to test the public.
But either way it's frustrating the Nexus 4 have these compatibility issues when connecting to a wifi router.
Before making the switch router, is it not possible to find out which configuration of WLAN could cause this? Does Google do not have this documented?

i feel your pain, been there
it could be your router, from the way it assigns ip addresses to your type of encryption. by any chance is it a linksys G router? that was my problem before until i just decided to get an N router.
did you try switching to WEP or open to see if the problem persists? or changing your gateway ip address? or changing which ch your wifi is on?
never hurts to try

Should factory reset your router and upgrade firmware first, then immediately connect to it without encryption and see if it work.

[Q] Wifi not working after i337m unlock

Hi ,
I recently bought a i337m (Virgin) from Kijiji. I performed the unlock and found that the Wifi is behaving weirdly.
MY S4(i337m) is not connecting to my Office wifi. Other S4(i9500) or other phones can easily connect to it.
I can see the different connections available on the wifi page. When i try to connect from any of it, it just doesnt connect.
At home my i337m gets connected to home Wifi router. But i can only access internet when i am near to the router. If i go to different room i just see the signals but cannot access internet. While other devices can easily connect and access internet.
I am on stock 4.4.2 rom . I tried flashing with custom rom Golden Eye which didnt help either.
I even performed a flash of MK6 modem , but no success.
As i can see the connections at office and even can use wifi and internet @ home when near the router, i feel there is no hardware issue.
Please help me here as i am not finding the way ahead.
