FOUND IT !!!
I was trying to connect to the phone with my pc...
dmesg and logcat said all was correct (hostap, dnsmasq, dhcp, etc ...)
When I've looked into the IP configuration of my PC, found the solution...
Forgotten that I had configured my PC to have static ip configuration, because it acts as server sometimes ...
When I switched to dynamic ip configuration, all was fine.
SO, There's no problem with the WIFI Tethering in CM10 ...

[How To] Config ad-hoc wifi with hd2

I am using ad-hoc wifi on my hd2 since a week.
I am using ad-hoc wifi with almost any rooted build.
I first go to wifi n settings and add and set up my ad-hoc connection.
It will show my connection not in range.
Then I use root-explorer and edit /data/misc/wpa_supplicant.conf
I add line ap_scan = 2 in the top
and add at the bottom of network section of my ad-hoc network
mode=1
priority=1
then I go to settings and switch on my wifi.
If then also net is problematic, I give static Id.
My gateway is 192.168.0.1
I give static ip 192.168.0.133 (13/3 is my birthday )
netmask 255.255.255.0
Hope this helps!
the instructions above do not work for me..I have edited wpa_supplicant.conf and now it shows this
ctrl_interface=eth0
update_config=1
ap_scan = 2
network={
ssid="Abitza"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=NONE
auth_alg=OPEN SHARED
wep_key0=0238521368
mode=1
priority=1
}
the problem is that after I rebooted into android my wifi doesn't work anymore..it tries to turn on and after that it says ERROR... any solution?
I too would like to properly tether.
Can any one post more specific I instructions on how to do this?
Thanks!

Did you set up the APN of your carrier, do you have a data plan activated?
I also, about 2 weeks ago, tried to connect my HD2 to my laptop ad-hoc wifi network, but unfortunately in the end I had the same result as adrian.mkl.86, broken wifi. I tried several instuctions from here and there but noting worked. Now I'm affraid to change anything in wpa_supplicant.conf, because wifi again will be down
i have same wifi problem. Turn out the device doesn't have the mac address at all. Does anyone know how to change the mac address in here? I try couple way but it doesn't work, like using fastboot
i try to use wifi for internet connection,using my wireless router, not internet from the 3g phone company(vodafone) . The phone finds wireless netework, gets an ip and establishes a connection BUT there is no data comming in... nothing loads... i have set APN but i think that hasnt anything to do with my wireless network... by the way the network is open so no wep/wpa key is needed, and never had issues with connections whatsoever.... Is there a way to see if packets are comming in to the phone?

This is a DNS problem. Try to manually enter a working DNS address.

[Solved] Android and WiFi

I've tried several builds:
Darkstone Froyo
DarkStone FroyoStone
mattc Froyo with Sense
mattc Froyo without Sense
shubcraft
Xcelsior
mccm v1.7
WiFi just does not work at home. It'll connect, but I can't actually browse anything. It comes back immediately as a "page not found" error. Today I took my phone around town specifically to test WiFi on other networks. It worked perfectly on two open networks. There were no issues at all. It works at my office as well.
My network at home is wired as:
Internet --> DLink Gamer Lounge (wired router with special features) --> Linksys WRT54G wireless router
The DLink has DNS and DHCP services. The Linksys has none and is assigned a static IP.
My network at work is wired as:
Internet --> DLink Gamer Lounge --> everything else including a Linksys WRT54G setup just like at home
There is a Windows Server setup to take care of DNS and DHCP. The Linksys has same setup as at home.
At home, I disconnected the DLink, enabled DHCP on the Linksys, then my Android phone worked on wifi just fine.
I reconnected wired router and reset all settings. Android wifi doesn't work anymore.
I don't think my wired router is incompatible. I'm wondering if the wireless router not being the DHCP agent has anything to do it. Other wireless devices connect fine like this. My phone in WinMo connects fine. My friends' iPhones connect fine. My friends' native Android phones connect fine. Every wireless device (except HD2 Android) connects to the network and works just fine.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Is there a route tracing program for Android? Or something that will show me all the IP information (including DNS)?
Update:
DarkStone1337 said:
Because you have no DHCP on your wireless router, your IP address and DNS server and default gateway settings aren't being set by Android. No idea why. You'll need to do this manually in Android by pressing the windows button in the wifi network settings and setting the right values from there.

I just used an app to check IP settings. IP address, subnet mask, gateway, DNS, and everything are being set properly (there is a DHCP server on network, just not on WiFi router). I tried to setup a static IP address and other settings. Whenever I try to connect that way, it gets to "Obtaining IP address" and then fails, cycling through the whole process. Is it possible the code for IP stack (or IP Tables) in these builds of Android are not complete?
Update 2:

Not an app, but using ADB logcat is sufficient enough.

Just read about ADB (Android Debug Bridge) briefly. I think this will be a bit out of my league. I'm not that familiar with Android / linux. I'll post in the other thread asking if someone else more skilled can grab one. If not, I'll see about trying to figure it all out this weekend.

On all of them, WiFi just does not work. It'll connect, but I can't actually browse anything. It comes back immediately as a "page not found" error. Today I took Matt's Froyo with Sense around town specifically to test WiFi on other networks. It worked perfectly on two open networks (Quizno's and McDonald's). There were no issues at all.
My network was wired as
Internet -- Wired router (with special features) -- wireless router
The WiFi router was basically treated like a switch with its DHCP turned off. I disconnected the wired, enabled DHCP on the wireless, then my Android phone worked on wifi just fine.
I reconnected wired router and reset all settings. Android wifi doesn't work anymore.
I don't think my wired router is incompatible. I'm wondering if the wireless router not being the DHCP agent has anything to do it. Other wireless devices connect fine like this. My phone in WinMo connects fine.

I just want you to know I'm in the same situation as you. My router is a Belkin Wireless N router (WPA2 encryption). I get a valid IP address and I can ping the router but no DNS or access past the router. There was an earlier version of an Android build (I think a MattcFroyo) that worked with my wifi set-up. But I need BT headset support and the Darkstone build seems to be the only one that reliably works with my BT devices. (BlueAnt T1 & Motorola EQ7)
Please let me know if you find a solution that works!
Thanks.
Sept 4 Update. The only version that I have found that provides both Wi-fi connectivity and BT head set is the Shubcraft version 1.4 for my router configuration. Version 1.5 doesn't and neither do the latest Mattc and Darkstone builds.
Hell, I can't even get my Wifi working at all. Darkstones V1... Wifi just says "Error". Have the latest zImage, and everything. :/

jinhenry, I'll let you know.
Shushunmire, are you using HD2Froyo or FroyoStone (clean or Sense)? Also be sure to post in Darkstone's thread that relates to the build. I know HD2Froyo v2 was giving error for wifi, but his latest update fixes that.
I tried various market apps to do network diags on the phone. All they offered was basic ping. When trying to ping anything on the wifi, it just fails right away. It's like it's not even seeing the network and just saying no network around. I even tried to ping the phone's own local IP and it failed. I tried looking for a traceroute type app, but there was none.
I installed Cirtex app. On cell connection, it pulls up the IP info of the wifi (but cell data works):
Device IP Address:{cell IP}
Interface name:/usb0(usb0)InetAddress:/{Ip of wired router, DHCP server, DNS server}
Interface name:rmnet0(rmnet0)Inetaddress:/25.1.238.x (don't know)
Interface name:lo(lo)InetAddress:/127.0.0.1
On wifi connection, it gives error:
Can not get te IP Address for the device. (errors their's)
Interface name:eth0(eth0)InetAddress:/{correct wifi ip}
Interface name:usb0(usb0)InetAddress:/{correct wifi ip}
Interface name:lo(lo)InetAddress:/127.0.0.1
If I use a static IP, and set the gateway to the actual network gateway (wired router, DHCP server, DNS server), phone tries to connect until it gets to the "Obtaining IP" stage, then it fails and cycles over. If I set the gateway to the wifi router (which is no more than a wifi access point) it will connect.
To repeat cause I know you have a lot going on: other wifi devices work on this network fine (using static or dynamic ips) including windows laptops, mac laptops, xbox, Wii, iphones, winmo phones (this one even), and even other android phones.
If I set the wifi router as the gateway (plug internet directly into it and turn on DHCP on wifi router), everything works fine. I don't even change its static IP.
Hopefully some of this will help. :/ The more I play around with it, I get the feeling the IP stack is the cause.
I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM!!!! my lil bro got an htc hd2 as well n we got them the same day n when i flashed android on his and mine... his wifi was working while mine was not and i have tryed so many different builds but nothing solves the problem...it searches but at the end it says unable to scan networks....anyone plz help i really need wifi
p.s we both are on....

have you tried setting the router to use G only? i had an issue with the newer builds on a d-link 635 that was the same, it woudl work then suddenly woudnt work at all, rebooting the phone didnt help, changing the router to use G only instead of mixed seemed to fix the issue
Here's my issue. On my phone I could connect to wireless fine, my two sons liked Android on the hd2 so much that we picked up 2 more hd2's, that's where the problem started. Any one of the phones can work on wireless just fine... but try and connect any of the others and while they do connect, they don't work. Any of them.
It's almost as if they are seen as the same device or something. Some kind of unique id is missing or something.

are they using the same builds? its possible that the mac address being used is the same and the router sees it as the same device

Didn't help Thanks for suggestion though.
unless it has changed recently, all HD2-android builds are using the same MAC-address. So this could very well be your problem.

I'm using FroyoStone (w/Sense).
And yeah, will do that. I just figured it wasn't working at all until I saw your post.
I use currently mattc 1.5b w/sense and had (have) the same problem with
DHCP is on. I allways got the status "Obtaining IP address" and nothing happen.
I played a little bit with the static IP settings...I set DNS 1 equal the the gateway entry and then wifi works....but only static.
I think this is a router issue...I use Speedport W 502V.
I doubt it's a router problem since all other devices work perfectly.
same issue, please give your attention, developers, thanks.
I've had the exact same problem with my Wi-Fi using several Android builds. Tried static IP and every possible setting I could find and solved it by add the Mac-adress in my router setting. (192.168.1.1) and now it works perfectly. I'm now using shubCRAFTv1.3
Hope you can fix your problem this way. Cheers.

I'm having issues with Wifi too. I'm also currently using mattc Leo + Froyo w/Sense 1.5b. My problem isn't that the phone doesn't connect via wifi... it does. The problem is that after it connects the connection seems to go dead/times out after about a minute or two.
For example, after installing the build and running through the setup, i connect to wifi, then sign in with my gmail account. This all works as it should. Then by the time I want to sign in to my facebook/twitter accounts during that same setup sequence, it no longer can connect to the internet. My suspicions of the connection having a "timing out"-like occurrence was then confirmed when I turned off wifi, and switched it back on. Everything would work and sync for about a minute, then it would cut out again (but it would still show a full strength connection via wifi). It's a bit of a strange one.
I used Energy's build before trying this one, and WiFi worked flawlessly. So I'm assuming its not my router, but something up with my device and/or its settings.
Thanks in advance for any tips/help.

What do you mean by you added your phone's MAC address to the router? Where exactly in the router? Guessing you mean you set your phone to use a static IP, then set your router's DHCP client to always assign that IP to the phone?

I had problems before with a similar setup, and I can tell you that NOT having the DHCP on the router (gateway out) is the issue. You have to remember that "these HD builds" are still in development with WIFI issues still being ironed out.
My advice, try using fixed IP assigning (on wireless router) using the phone's wifi adapter mac address.
Right now your phone is going to the wifi router who will be sending packets to the DHCP server and back to wifi router so that it goes out. Also usually, there tends to be a conflicts because some DHCP clients just assume that the server for DHCP is the gateway too.
or... Check that your DHCP server (if another machine) is doing internet sharing, in case devices try to use its address as a gateway, which will then go out anyway through the wifi router.
The fact you report may be in my oppinion, useful for the devs (eventually), but dont get high hopes for this to be on the immediate to-do list

[Solved] WiFi - 3G says "Connected" but actually there is no connectivity !

I tried to change the dns server in build.prop but it seemed that it's wasn't working so I had to modify my WiFi Advanced Settings to the following :
Use static IP : *Enabled*
IP Address : *Set your prefered*
Gateway : 192.168.1.254 *This is mine, set your own*
Netmask : 255.255.255
DNS 1 : 8.8.8.8 *Google's Server*
DNS 2 : 8.8.8.8
Then hit menu -> Save .. Disconnect WiFi then reconnect ..
*This is for WiFi only, 3G I'm not sure*

Hello,
I've been experiencing this problem frequently . With almost all builds .
It's that I have my phone connected to 3G or WiFi it says " Connected ", However I Cannot
use any internet service such as Market, web, Twitter . It's just an icon on the taskbar.
I've done some searches, found similar threads about the same problem but without any solutions.
No, I didn't change the kernel of the build. though i used to change it sometimes and everything works fine
Any help is always appreciated

I'm having the same problems!!
Same issue here (sorry to the threadstarter for bumbing the tread without any solution )
^^
After one hard Reset and MANY sd card formats, I got it to work .
(i tried to make a back up of the files i had on the sd but it just wouldn't work. Had to complete fresh format without backups !
EDIT ::
Only 3g is working, WiFi still connected without internet connectivity :\
I have the same issue...but only if my phone sleeps with Wifi on without charger attached.
I think this issue is with the android because WM did't have this problem and I saw this problem with other android build as well

Perhaps.
Because I've tried so many builds ! All of them had this problem, although not immediatly (i.e I use the phone for a few weeks then suddenly the WiFi stops working (no internet access) )
I also face it when I switch builds, but i get over it by formatting the sd card. But now, No matter what i do it never let me connect to the internet !
This happend to me when I tried DRIOD Sense I then changed to MDJ Evo 1.7 and everything works perfect and I am well happy !

oK, But if you want a certain build ! And the wifi isn't working in it !
Actually I've tried all builds but then i recognized that the best build so far is MIUI 5/11 (for me) and i was MDJ sense Rev. (Wifi working perfectly) then i wanted to switch to MIUI ( wifi here stopped working ) after many attempts to make it work i couldn't and i gave up hope, Switched to Nexus1 build (second best build 4 me ) and guess what ? the WiFi is working Just fine !
Anyways I backed up all my apps and data from it and moved to Nexus one, Thank ya'll for your responses ! .
Bumping .. Having the issue again is just freaking me out !!
After I had the issue I Flashed another ROM then everything worked fine, Now with the same rom the issue returned !
Solutions ? Anybody ? ...

WiFi Not working: WEP Security, Hidden SSID

Hello everyone!!
I installed NexusHD2-Gingerbread V2.8 ROM in my HTC HD2, everything works just perfectly, but when I try to access the wireless at work that has the SSID hidden and password protected with WEP encryption the wireless doesn't work at all, it says: "Not in range, WEP protected"
I have configured the network manualy, with static IP Address, Gateway, Net Mask, and DNS (all required to be able to connect to the network)
I have searched alot in google and in this Forum, but I failed to get a solution to my problem, I have installed programs like "Wifi Advanced", "WifiConnector", "Hidden SSID"... But none of them solved my problem.
When I had Windows Mobile 6.5 installed everything worked just fine, but since I moved to Android I failed everytime to connect to the wireless.
My System:
- HTC HD2 (bought new, unbranded)
- NexusHD2-Gingerbread_V2.8_NAND_(Android-2.3.4)
- Radio Leo 2.15.50.14
- MAGLDR_CWM_Recovery_v3.0.2.5_for_NexusHD2_135M
- HSPL 2.08
No one can help ?
This is really anoying
Am I the only person having this problem ?
No one have any idea how to solve this ??
Please help!!
Hi SmileXPT,
This is a irritating problem indeed. I use to have the same issue on some SD and NAND builds before, and the reason was the security settings of my router + MAC address filtering was enabled. It used to be WEP too, but nowadays it's advisable to use atleast WPA or WPA2 since it is more secure.
You could check if the router or accesspoint has MAC address filtering enabled. This means that the MAC address of your HD2 isn't in the whitelist of the router. In some Android builds the MAC address isn't unique, or the kernel isn't stable, for example: PPP is faster than RMNET but can drop out, RMNET is more stable but slightly slower.
You could also try Pongster's "HyperDroid-CM7-v2.1.0" build. I use it daily with a stable wifi connection for Whatsapp. I never had a dropout with the connection.
But what I wonder is:
- does wifi work @ other places?
- does your HD2 see other accespoints in the list?

Thank you very much for your answer!
I know WPA and WPA2 are more secure... but because the network I'm trying to access is of my Company, I can't change the settings of it... The MAC Address filtering is not active.
I'm going to try the build that you suggested and I will let you know if worked.
Thanks again for your time!
Thanks mister.halfblood, the "HyperDroid-CM7-v2.1.0" really works very well
Now I don't have any problem with the wireless
The only problem is... that I don't like the default theme is too dark...
Thanks again!

Hi SmileXPT,
you're welcome, no problem!
I use to have the same NAND build on my HD2. Also have a look at the latest GPS fix from Tytung's thread here.
It will for sure help you out getting a better and faster signal lock.
If you would like to change the theme I advise you to check out some skins for ADW, a lot of them are free to download on the market.
Well, I'm glad all has worked out for you! Have a nice weekend!
Peace!

[Q] Android Lollipop - Wifi Problem

I did a clean flash, but cannot connect internet through wifi. There wasn't such problem before lollipop.
Other devices connect without problem.
Chrome says DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NO_INTERNET
Mobile network works fine btw.
What might cause that?

Is it happening with all WiFi networks that you are connected to? Because it seems related to the DNS configuration.

No, only University's WiFi
I have the same, really annoying problem.
I use a local DNS to resolve my LAN name server, but the device on Android Lollipop never use the Local DNS and it ends with a 404.
I use "Fing" / "Ping and DNS" to do my network test, it says the hostname can't be resolved... and the DNS used is one on IPV6 (2a01:e00::1)
I have a lot of applications inside my private domain ( *.dk.lan ) managed by a bind9 / dnsmasq (I have tested both) server on Raspbian, and all was pretty good with Kitkat and lower (and on Mac OS / Linux )...
I have 8 devices, 5 on Lollipop with this problem and 3 on kitkat without it.
Some thread seems to appear on Internet about this kind of problem...
And, after investigation, it seems the Android Lollipop device use an Ipv6 DNS name resolver instead those send by the DHCP server...
If you have an idea... I'm listening !
About this problem, I've opened a issue on the Android tracker : https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=79504
I've been investigating this issue and it's seems that it's a kind of problem on how the OS stores the DHCP parameters.
If you try to make static the same configuration in my case it takes a /20 (255.255.240.0) network like /29 (255.255.255.248) ..... and this doesn't happen if the network it's the ussual /24 (255.255.255.0)
Not fixed in 5.0.1
Finally fixed in 5.1
