Back on 4.2.2, the wifi at my house suddenly stopped working, I know because I tried connecting at friends house and such. i thought with the 4.3 update, there would be a slim chance that my wifi would magically start working again, but to no avail.
I would really really appreciate some help in getting my wifi back up and running on my phone.
Thanks in advance

Hey guys. It's been a while but I've ran into a problem with my mytouch today when I tried to turn wifi on for the first time in forever. It just wouldnt connect. It would say aquiring ip address from [network] and then flash to disconnected, then scanning, then acquiring ip address again.
I've tried flashing a different rom, doing a nand restore to my previous rom (which had wifi working), and trying my friend's wifi and none of those worked.
Wifi stopped working after flashing this rom.

I've had issues with WPA2 networks where my phone wouldn't connect at first.
Try removing the network and starting over.
Still a no go.
Could it be a bad kernel that you've been installing?
It may also be a hardware failure (worst case scenario)
Try changing your network security type, or removing it completely.
I forgot to mention that I changed the kernal too. Still not working. I don't think (or I hope) it's not hardware failure. It's still picking up wifi signals and detecting networks. It just doesn't actually connect.
EDIT:
Wow I feel like the biggest noob now. After changing every possible thing I could think of on my phone, I restarted my router and my phone connected right after. That was really strange considering every other wireless device in the house had no trouble connecting but oh well. It works. Can't complain now. Thanks for the help guys
Same with MT3G. Can not connect any wifi now (Just 1 time after Flashing 2.2 ROM).
Don't know how to fix.
Changed 2 Froyo ROM already
same issue
Same problem here after flashing a Hero ROM like 5 months ago. Can't connect to WiFi, but I can still search and attempt to connect to a wifi network, but won't actually connect. I can still WiFi tether, which leads me to believe it's not a hardware issue...
Hey guys, the newest 3.2 update (not the first one but the second one that came out) messed up my Wifi and now I can't connect to it. I've turned off/one my roouter+modem, wifi on tablet, tablet itself, and re-added the network multiple times and nothing seems to work. What happens is that I add the network and it would try to connect and authenticate but then it just retries connecting again and then all the available wifi networks are gone. It's a mess. And it happened a few times where it would finally connect but then no webpage would open after a few minutes and the wifi bars on the bottom right turn from blue to grey. Wtf. How the hell can Samsumg mess up something like that? And no it's not my wifi since it works perfectly fine with alllll of my other devices.
I just had exactly the same problem. 3.2 was working fine for a couple of days for me but now has difficulty connecting and when it does connect doesn't seem to be able to reach the internet. No issues with other devices. Time for a custom ROM?
Had also issues with wifi and the latest stock 3.2. It went away with Task 6.1 and probably the other custom rom also.
And now it is all working again.
Strange but worrying.......
On the contrary the wifi is better now with me. I used to have wifi issues after the TW update. The first days with stock Android I dont remember a single day dropping my wifi connection, but after TW update I sometimes picked my Tab to see "no internet connection". After 3.2 update it is just always on. I am quite happy with this update. If I ever see a drop in connection it is %100 router related which sometimes confuses and tries to assign the same the IP address to 2 different devices.

Sounds like it dropped the connection. Try turning your phone off and back on. If that doesn't work. you may want to update to the newest cyanogen mod, because their could've been some type bug.
Sounds like you might wanna try reflashing the ROM, I heard it sometimes helps. Don't forget to do nandroid backup!
sorted now updated rom to the hyperdroid cm7 seems to run faster than the cyanogen mod i had which is a bonus thanks
Glad you got everything fixed! Happy flashing! :-D

I know that there are problems with Exchange and such, but everything was working fine on my phone up until about 2 weeks ago. I have been running CM7 for quite some time and always left wifi on to connect at work and home. Never had any issues connecting to my Exchange account. Then I started to notice some connection issues with e-mails not coming in, etc. It was very random it seemed, sometimes on wifi, sometimes on 3G. So this weekend I decided to try installing CM7.2 and CM9 and maybe it would resolve my issues. Now I can get my phone to connect over 3G, but if I turn on wifi it will not connect, even after I turn wifi back off, until I reboot the phone. Not sure how to fix this problem, I enjoy using wifi quite a bit and it obviously keeps my data usage lower. Any ideas on how I can fix this? Currently running the latest CM9 beta.
Did you flash any kernel? Anyways try updating now the kernels are fixed today.

Hey guys,
Ever since I updated my Firmware I am unable to download apps from the playstore when connected to wifi.
Same issue when using YouTube it keeps saying I lost connection to server.
If I use my 3g I can download apps and watch YouTube but not with wifi on.
I also started getting this problem when I started using a airrave. Wifi still works cause my internet pages are loading really fast when I'm connected to it.
Any ideas? Please help I'm desperate.
I don't know if this is related, but I'm at a hotel in Tampa this weekend, and my wifi keeps dropping the connection, and then after several seconds, it reconnects. It doesn't matter where I am in the room, but my laptop has a nice 4-bar signal and hasn't dropped it once.
Anyone else experiencing this? I'm on stock MDL so far.
Thanks
Quick question. Do you guys have Smart Wifi enabled? That might be causing the problem.
