Hi, I have got a very strange issue, I have data and wifi connected but cannot connect to the internet with either, if it was just one or the other but with both data and wifi, I have tried many 'fixes' but nothing works, I restart the phone and both work fine for a while but after I wake the phone from standby neither work again... maybe this is a clue any ideas? thanks
What does not work? Is there only a particular app that doesn't work over either one of them?
Did you ever use a VPN for this phone?
Also, do a factory reset and see if getting back to the original settings it will work.

Hi!
I have a problem with my p3600. It is wifi related.
There are some wifi's that, when i connect i can navegate for a little time, then it suddenly stops working (says connecting....) and then wifi won't work again until i reset the device (stop/start wlan doesn't work, it doesn't find the AP's again, no networks found).
When i soft reset, everything works again, but when i connect, and try to navigate, it stops again.
I have tried almost everything (move slider of power to the left...).
I am not sure but i think it only happens with some wifi's...
Any Help? Thanks!
Hi, I've got the same problem.. I was able to connect to the wifi at my school last month and works perfectly, but then suddenly this problem comes in.. anyone can help?
Hi,
Same here.
WiFi works fine at home but it only works a few seconds in my university.
Hi,
My device does this too on occasion, I've gotten around the habit of resetting the phone every two-or-so days.. Keepin it working.
Does anyone know how to set proxy settings for the wifi?
I can set them for other connections, but that..
Would be nice to have one set of settings for each SSID or something?
Try to disable power saving for wifi.
Hi, Ive been having problems with my wifi connections lately. Im running stock rom on my vibrant and from time to time I have trouble with the wifi conection. the vibrant will connect just fine with a strong signal but will not load webpages, or open market. This problem happens sometimes. The connection is a secure wap. I am wondering what I can do to fix this issue, its really frustrating.
Thanks in advance
btw all other devices in the house have no problem connecting and using this connection. Sometimes I will have my laptop in front of me using this very conneciton.
Happens to me all the time. Have to disconnect it and reconnect. If it still doesn't work, you have to reset your phone.
My friend is having same problem with wife on his Vibrant....is the a hardware or software problem? Because I had Captivate and it never had this problem since I had the phone.
WIFI is good and connect is Excellent.... but just can't use it to surf web or log on fring.....HOWEVER, it was able to logon the Market today using wifi.. Does anyone know why and how to fix this problem?
Thanks!!
What exactly do you mean by reset? you mean a factory restore? Im finally likng the battery life on this phone I dont want to lose that, will that be affected? Is there any other fix?
Just got my Arc yesterday and noticed a really wired problem. I turned on Wifi tethering and connected from my MBP, after a few minutes of normal usage internet stops working. Although Wifi still shows connected on my Mac but sites will never load.
I keep getting "WPA Key" incorrect error if I try to reconnect before I restart Wifi tethering on my Arc. Thing is this only happens when WPA is on, if I choose no security it works completely fine without any issues.
I also tried connecting from my Nexus One and the same thing happened after a few minutes, so it shouldn't be some sort of conflict between Arc and my MBP.
Everything else on my Arc works perfectly, I already tried a hard reset but it didn't help. Does anyone know what else could I try before sending my phone back to SE?
anyone?
Hey did you find a solution? Or has anyone got any suggestions, I have the exact same problem. I can connect to the phone for about 2 minutes then it suddenly stops working. I then cannot reconnect properly untill everything is reset. I tried using it without security after finding this post and it works for me as well - I don't want to have it open though, im in halls of residence so people will try using it. Im on three mobile, I wondered if it is a possible problem with their branded software. (USB tethering works perfectly)
I also cannot connect to the update service through the phone, it fails everytime but there is nothing wrong with the 3g connection etc, and only the update service has problems. I know this is not important, but it could be a sign that something is wrong so it is annoying me a little
Thanks

For the last week or two I have been unable to connect my phone to wifi networks.
At first the problem would be that I was getting disconnected from any wifi network I joined, now I can't connect at all.
The wifi networks page sometimes (not always) does not detect a strong network even if I am standing a few feet away and the phone has previously connected and other APs are connected and working like my pc
If I try to connect then I get the "Connecting" status followed by "Saved,secured"
I have searched the internet looking for a fix to this and tried wiping the cache partition, forgetting the network, airplane mode toggling on and off, apps that wipe the known network list and some others including lastly a factory reset on the phone but nothing seems to remedy the issue.
From the wifi router I have tried using an unencrypted (open) connection
Now I think I may also be having problems with the bluetooth connecting in the car but I haven't had a chance to really investigate that one yet and it may or may not be related to the last factory reset.
My phone is not rooted.
Build no. LRX21T.G870AUCU2B0F3
kernel3.4.0-4443965

Can anyone offer any assistance to my current issue ?

I have just confirmed that the Bluetooth in my car is not detecting my phone when it scans (the phone bt is switch on and the visible box being checked) so that's both radios with similar issues.

Im having same issue with wifi... sm-g900r4
I just stumbled on a clue, while using an app called 'wifi cleaner' there is a feature allowing you connect to wifi networks within the app. I type in the password, authenticating is shown on the screen followed by "incorrect password".
I know the password to be correct..
Mmm

I was wondering if you ever got this issue fixed?
I thought I had but the problem comes back in a different way.
Sometimes wifi connects but only connects at 5 mbps.
Now wifi will not turn on at all. ( radio button is greyed in settings)
I did find a thread on xda where some Motorola users were having the wifi off issue and it was due to a missing system file which could be replaced on a rooted device. However I don't have root on my s5 g870a and it's not likely I can get it.
Help!!! After update to 7.0 my phone has trouble connecting to WiFi. It's not mynetwork because other devices connect and it happens at my workplace too. I've tried clearing the partition cache, restarting it and forgetting the WiFi. Even putting it into airplane mode for a few minutes. I'm not very techie so please keep keep answer easy to understand.
I think I fixed it. I went to my Google account and there was a way to restore my wifi settings.
My wife's G4 has been having the same issue... I cannot get it to reliably connect to any wifi network. Very occasionally it will connect but it only lasts for a few minutes before dropping again. Most of the time it just doesn't see any wifi networks available. I've tried resetting to factory, I've reset default networks under wifi settings, I even applied the new system update that came out yesterday, and still no luck. This is very aggravating. Anyone have any ideas?
