After connecting to 3 different wireless connections and none of then working, I'm concluded that my wifi isn't working.
I go to settings and check wifi on, it finds the network, connects, but I lose my entire data connection for the duration wifi is turned on!
Is anyone else having this problem?
Sent from my Samsung Vibrant
I'm having the same issues with the wifi. I downloaded wifi analyzer to make sure I was on a good channel. Set it to the best channel and my signal strength is 100%. I will be able to connect for a little bit but for some reason it goes in and out, connection unsuccessful, yada yada yada. I messed with all the troubleshooting solutions for my router (dgl-4300) but nothing works. If anyone can reply with a fix or point me in the right direction, that would be greatly appreciated.
Same Issues
Any help is greatly appreciated. Data working fine when on 3G but Wifi = no data. Connection is fine, IP is fine.
UPDATE: It's working again on my home WIFI. Will have to see if it's just an "at work" issue. Hopefully IT can assist.
Same problem with Verizon MiFi
I have had ZERO problems connecting to the Linksys access points we have setup at my home and my office, but recently my work provided me with a Verizon MiFi (as well as an iPad - don't hate ) and I've had MANY issues trying to get my Vibrant to consistently connect to the MiFi.
My iPad, Motorola Droid, and Laptop have no issues connecting to the MiFi.
On my Vibrant I'm running the 2.1 stock ROM with root & the latest ClockWork recovery.
It will "connect" to the MiFi (I use quotes because I can't really tell - it AT LEAST receives an IP). But I'm unable to send and receive data. I can't even browse to the MiFi's internal configuration page .
To FINALLY get it to connect consistently I have to do some kind of random combo toggling the wifi off and back on and then turning the MiFi off and back on and it will EVENTUALLY connect and stay connected with data flowing freely.
I've customized my configuration a little bit on the MiFi so I'm going to reset it back to factory and not change the config to see if it makes a difference - because at lunch I was able to connect to my boss' MiFi with no problem. I'm thinking it may either be the phone or the mifi...
I've connected to about 10 different wireless networks with NO issues, at all. The connectivity is actually much better than my G1/Nexus.
HOWEVER, last night at a bar I was connected to their wifi, strong signal, but I was not able to use Data. I was in a very poor reception area for T-Mobile... don't think that could be an issue, bit the other places I use wi-fi that is not the case.
I just chalked it up as a fluke and moved on. Not sure what was wrong.
I had this happen to me today. I just rebooted and it went away. Toggling wifi didn't help, but I only tried it once. The phone reboots so quick I figured I'd give it a try.
I have set the phone up manually with static ip. Seems like its a problem with the dhcp.

Hello there.
This is my first post here, as I usually Google and usually find the solution here, but this time no.
Yesteday, my N4 stopped accessing the Web via Wifi.
It do connects to the Modem, gets its IP adress and etc. But I see no data being exchanged (using Internet Speed Meter I see 0kb/s, or a few bytes).
I see the N4 and its IP also from the router configuration page, and from the phone itself under wifi settings.
It was working fine 48Hours ago, and I didn't make anything weird in the past hours. It was running PacMan Rom (the latest one). I tried a factory reset and wiping a fresh 4.4, but nothing yet.
I tried multiple Fresh-Flashing but none helped.
I tried connecting to a free Wifi Hotspot and it worked like a charm, but when it comes to the my Wifi spot, nopenope. 3G works fine.
Any help? If you need more details just ask.
EDIT - Just forget what I wrote. Seems like my ISP router went nuts. I forgot to try a router hard reset before posting. I just tried and it's working again.
At least my Nexus is still going nice
This has probably been posted more than once. We have 3 acer Z410 phones. Two of the phones are rooted and have a custom recovery. The two that are rooted will work on any Wi-Fi but our house Wi-Fi. The internet on the two that are rooted worked for a couple months, but then stopped. For some reason the two that are rooted will connect to Wi-Fi, the internet will work for 10 seconds and then Wi-Fi stays connected but internet cuts out. I thought maybe it was because it was rooted so I did a full unroot and factory reset but the problem persisted. The internet on the third phone (the unrooted one) works fine. I have tried doing a factory reset of the router and changing channels of the router. I also tried changing security and changing WI-FI types (B,G,N). Could a custom recovery have anything to do with this? This doesn't make any sense to me that the third works fine. Any Ideas?
I was in a same sitaution where my sisters phone were easily able to connect to the wifi and use internet but mine just connected and then the connection works fine for 5 sec and then stops.So i made a backup and factory resetted my router and then the problem was gone.
Just this morning I noticed that I cannot maintain a constant connection for my laptop to my Verizon rooted S5 via hotspot. I opened the hotspot details on the cell and I can see the laptop constantly connecting and disconnecting every second or quicker. I just now started having this issue, but have been able to use this feature for about a month (since I rooted the device). I have tried restarting the laptop and cell and the laptop is listed as a trusted device when I look at the details under hotspot. Any ideas on what I can do so my laptop can stay connected to my cell via hotspot?
Cell Details:
Android Version 5.0 rooted stock BPB1
Unlimited data plan
EDIT: I truly believe the issue is with the cell, I brought a tablet and was able to connect my laptop and tablet. Once I started to use my laptop, the wifi connection started to go in and out for both the laptop and tablet. I also have the same issue when trying to connect my tablet alone and noticed that my tablet received an authentication error. I've tried testing this at home and seem to have no issues, when I'm at either of my work locations, the issue can be constant or sometimes will not happen at all.

When I'm at work, college, and try to connect my laptop to the hotspot, the connection either does not happen or is disconnected/reconnects within seconds or half a second. I cannot maintain a constant connection, even when manually adding my laptop MAC address.
I have done some troubleshooting and found that the issue is not with my laptop and I only have this issue when I'm at campuses for my institution(2 campuses 40 miles apart). I have reflashed my ROM (to make sure something that might have changed was fixed) and still have this issue. I've also turned on the hotspot, ran a wifi analyzer on my laptop, and changed the broadcast channel as I saw my hotspot had the same channel as the college visitor & guest wifi, but this didn't help either. I am able to tether via USB to my computer, but would prefer to use the hotspot function as tethering uses up a USB port.
This is a very frustrating issue and any help/ideas will be greatly appreciated.
