My wife‘s A3 2016 (A310F) has a weird problem.
It has connection to the Internet but not to ethernet-connected devices.
It connects to the Internet via Fritzbox 7390.
Most of our network devices (QNAP NAS, Philips Hue, Sonos) are connected to a Netgear GS108Tv2 switch. Our Fire TV connects via Wifi.
She can connect to the Fire TV and Sonos if the players connect to our wifi (without the bridge).
My S7 and our tablets have no problems connecting to all devices.
I removed the A3 from the Fritzbox and re-added it: no solution
FritzApp 2 connects to the Fritzbox.
A scan with Fing finds all network devices with proper names and IP.
QNAP File or other apps like SyncMe wireless can‘t find the NAS.
She was on latest German stock firmware. I rooted her phone and installed latest JX‘s L‘oogle ROM. No solution.
Is it ok to flash latest modem (Nordic Countries) via Odin on a German phone?
Does anybody have a clue?

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.
Just opened my new Elocity A7 today and I can't seem to get an internet connection.
I'm trying to connect to a Belkin Wireless Router. My Windows Laptop and Xbox 360 have no problems with the router. It's using WPA2 / PSK for encryption and the SSID is not hidden.
The A7 is able to detect my network and even goes so far to let me input the key. When I view available networks I see: "Network XYZ - Remembered"
Obviously the A7 is retaining the key, but everytime I hit connect it just sits there and I never get an internet connection.
Thoughts?
So it appears that I'm having connection issues with other Wifi Networks as well. My laptop can snag an unsecured connection from the coffee shop around the corner, but while the A7 detects it, it doesn't connect just like with my wifi.
Do I need a firmware update? Have I missed some settings or config?
I've downloaded and installed the latest firmware update - and surprise! Still no Wifi connectivity. I've been assured by Elocity customer support that this firmware update should have fixed the issue.
I'll be trying a factory restore and re-loading the update once more, and then I'll be shipping this tablet back. Without internet access it's just a giant iPod.
Hello! I just bought an nvidia shield tv and I have a problem: I need to connect it by ethernet with my nas in a private lan (not connect to internet) whereas for internet I'd like to use its wifi. By now it is connected by wifi and works well, but I can't ping it in the lan so I'd like to know if it's possibile to use the wifi for internet and its ethernet for a lan and if so how because i tried to change the parameters in network but both DHCP and static didn't work. I have a strange fear that the ethernet interface will be disabled if it detects a wifi connection, if so i am badly screwed (and with a useless shiled for my needs)
TY for your help!
Sorry can't help. But if a usual android device can do that, you could flash a usual android rom to your shield tv and try.
Check this out, still seems like alot of work to get it done.

I've done a search both within this forum and Google in general, and can't seem to find an answer, I'm hoping someone here has run into this...
My 2017 HD 8 and 10 both work on every wifi I've tried EXCEPT for my Xfinity supplied router. Every other device I own works just fine with the Xfinity router. The Fire devices show "connected," but I'm seeing the "!" next to the wifi icon and no signs of an actual connection within the system or apps. I've tried the most common suggestions in semi-related threads on other sites ("forget" the network and reconnect, restart device/router, etc.), I've tried connecting via WPS as opposed to standard password, and no change in status.
The router is set to WPAWPA2-PSK (TKIP/AES).
I am able to connect both devices at home via a Netgear router I have LAN'd to the Xfinity router. I'd like to have them connect to the Xfinity router due to other devices on that specific wireless network and signal in different parts of the house.
Any help from other Xfinity users (or network experts) is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I have the following problem:
My LAN has a router and two APs, the router is a fritz box (IP 192.168.178.1), the APs are a Netgear R6400 v2 running dd-wrt (IP 192.168.178.2) and an older TP-Link on dd-wrt (IP 192.167.178.3).
From my cell (Xiaomi mi 9) I can stream via chromecast thje Shield as long as the Shield is only connected by WLAN to my AP. It doesn't matter to which of my APs my cell is connected, it doesn't need to be the same AP as the one to which the shield is connected.
Once I turn on LAN on the Shield (which then connects to the router), chromecast on the cell doesn't see the Shield anymore.
When connected to the LAN, the shield has IP 192.168.178.53, and my cell has IP 192.168.178.70.
From the computer on which I am typing this post, I can ping all of these 4 devices.
Btw, there is another device, a Panasonic reciever, connected to the LAN, and I can access it from my cell, so I assume that the problem actually comes from the Shield.
Any ideas how I can fix this, making chromecast work even when the Shield is connected by LAN?
This is strange now, I have deactivated the chromecast app (apps/system apps), cleared cache and data, activated it again and restarted the Shield - and now it is working again.
