Wifi Issues Nexus 6P "Connected, no internet" - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
For the last couple of week I have been having an issue with my Nexus6p on Android N 6 r3
Today 6/16/2016 the r4 update came out thinking it would fix my issue but it has not.
MY issue is that when i try to connect to my Colleges Wifi i get the following error "Connected, no internet"
My College has 2 wifis, an automatic wifi login system using PEAP and one similar to a hotel wifi login system .
All other networks I try work fine (home, friends wifis, etc)
The only way I am able to connect using my school wifi is through my VPN.
I have attempted the following
-Factory resetting
-resetting the phones network settings
-Statically setting and IP

update
another fix i found was using a static IP address.
in android N r3 and r4 there is no legacy DHCP, this may be the cause of the issues, and ideas ?

Wi-fi problems on the Exec?

Hi,
I tried to connect my XDA to my works wireless network. I needed to get my MAC address added to the DHCP server so my IP address is assigned automatically in my department.
So, when I turn on my Wi-fi it finds the network and I select 'connects to Internet'. The connection now appears as 'available'. Next I tell it to connect and it displays 'connecting.....' then simply returns back to displaying 'available' again. No connection, no error message.
Does anyone have any idea what I may have done wrong? Surely if using DHCP I dont have to configure DNS etc?
Any advice would be great.
I had the same problem with my home wifi.
My wifi router was transmitting on wifi G only.
And when i changed it to B+G wifi transmission,and then it worked.
I then realised that the Exec has in fact a wifi B only...(i thought it had a G since windows mobile 5 is supporting G... but no...)

Wifi Problems On Cingular 8125

Hello to all
I have problems trying to connect through wifi on my new 8125.
After reading a lot of threads, i downloaded a program called hitchiker, who solves the wifi connection a lot easier and faster, but i keep getting the same error, the wifi connection appears, it connects but can not solve the ip address with the dhcp server and fails...
Can anyone told me if this is a hardware problem or a firmware issue?
my router is a netgear WG602 v2 with the last firmware available.
Thanks and happy new year to all!!
ddo you have mac filtering on? if so try turning it off
No, i used to have a wep security password, but i reset all settings on the router to factory, to try to connect.
i also have a laptop and a psp and both connect great!!
dont know what the problem is here, but its frustating...
I make it to work
first i did a hard reset, then i check on the log of the access point, and it was going through and forwarding the connection to the adsl router, but the problem apparently was on the dhcp server on the router.
i add a fixed ip, and now it works
still not working on dhcp but at least its working...

I'm having almost the same problem.
First I've tried to connect on my open lan in my house. I could connect, but couldn't get an IP automaticaly.
Today I went to the mall to try some open wifi lan. A friend of mine, with a Nokia n80 succsessfully connected with one of the hotspots. I've tried and couldn't get an IP. Suddenly, don't know why, I got connected, but couldn't surf at the web.
Then I realized that the fixed Ip that I've set before was still on. Changing it for dinamic didn't work.
So, I still can't get an IP.
Any Ideas?

DNS error? - data connection unusable

I experience a very strange behaviour in my eyes and did not yet found a solution here.
Conditions:
-WinMo 6.1 on SE XPERIA X1 using different cooked ROMs, maybe also the official ROM
-automatic SE or manual connection setup used for t-mobile DE
Error characteristics:
-data connection itself (GPRS connection either on 2G or 3G network) is active
-applications can't connect to any site (opera, htc weather, quickgps)
-but if IP addresses are used instead of names then connections to a web-site are successful (A direct IP address http://209.85.129.132/ does work, but not http://www.google.de/ e.g.)
-the error is somehow reproducible, but it can not exactly figured out under which condition it appears
-the error stays after power off or soft reset, only flashing the rom new helps
-the error does start after a while (hours/days)
-the error seems to be somehow in conjunction with switching network type between GPRS, WLAN and using the Internet connection of a PC connected with ActiveSync, but there is no unambiguous correlation distinguishable when the error starts
solutions:
-my first idea was that DNS service on the X1 is somehow not working, so I used openDNS specific adresses for the DNS server instead of the server-assigned addresses, but the error stays
I hope you have any ideas for me?
confirm error by my Xperia
Hello yesterday i posted the same error by a rom Thread,
had the same error on 6.5 and 6.1 with skyfire the internet works but Weather, QuickGPS... don't work, hope that find a solution for that.
by the way my Provider is ePlus (Germany) maybe this is an error according to the Provider.
thanks !

Try Entering The DNS Servers manually in the setting try open dns servers.

Hi everybody,
I have exactly the same problem with o2 Germany. I tried it with the open dns servers but still the same network error occurs... Has anybody solved this?
Hello,
I have a similar problem when I'm using for my wifi static ip and manually settings for DNS. At home I'm using static ip settings for my wifi, so after i closed my Wifi connection on the Blackstone my Opera at GPRS/3G connection will not disolving the URL like www.google.de but when I'm using the IP it works fine. My workaround is to delete the static IP settings and the entry for DNS and the the desolving of the URL is working.
problem solved

thanks bieza, that worked for me as well . i had only static IP (with auto DNS) for WiFi, and dns was failing for cellular connection (EDGE). changed wifi IP back to auto, and problem fixed.
interestingly, when DNS was not working for EDGE, i could use ICS as usual. i was browsing on PC, but due to DNS problem nothing was working on the same phone.
it's a touch (ELF 64/128) running on ONYX 4.6.

[Q] Problem connecting to Netgear WiFi Router.

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.

WiFi No Connectivity with 802.1x MSCHAPv2

I just received my Nexus 6p last night. It connected and ran just fine on my home network. I get to school this morning and I can not connect to the school wifi which uses 802.1x MSCHAPv2 authentication. My Computer and my friend's Note 4 next to me can connect with out issue. Anyone else have this issue? Possible solutions?
*UPDATE*
I just tried to connect to our guest Wifi with the same problem. Instead of using MSCHAPv2 Auth, the guest WiFi uses a captive portal. I still can not obtain an IP address from either. It looks like it might be an incompatibility with the access point itself? This is really weird as 1 / 2 of the networks I have tried to connect to succeeded and one was a Asus router (my home). The access points I am having trouble with are Aerohive from what I read on them. I do not know what the controller specs are.
i'm having issues connecting to a regular enterprise PEAP network, it just sits there saying "Connecting...", whereas our public portal it pulls up fine. still can't figure out why.

Yep, my company network uses PEAP + MSCHAPv2 and I couldn't connect with my 6P. I forwarded that thread to our IT department and a couple days later it magically started working correctly.
OK, I have discovered a work around. Sadly I don't have a responsive IT department at my school. What I have found is to use the DCHP client from lollipop. Enable developer options, enable "Use legacy DHCP client", reboot. This is just a work around and I hope someone finds a solution to this, either on the android side or on the server side. I know my campus uses windows server 2008 for their radius and auth server so the freeradius TLS 1.2 issue isn't totally relevant. Maybe someone could enlighten me how TLS 1.2 is handled in Windows Server.
