What sort of more info do you need......... please elaborate
stuff like info about the wifi network, if you've checked several networks, signal strength, which browser (stock or other browser), have you tried other internet based apps etc...
In the OP you are pretty much saying "hey, i connect to a network and cant open a website, help!" How can anybody deduce the exact problem from that?

Well, bro I've just bought this fone two day back, no not quite comfortable with its functionality and all that stuff.
It would be highly appreciable if you could help me
I would if I could, but with this amount of information all i can suggest is to do a reset.
Please tell me what should i tell you.
I simply connected wifi and it got conected......... it show in the settings that wifi is connected....... now, i trying to access net via the default browser which comes with galaxy 3, but it is not able to open any page. even I tried to connnect gmail it is also not getting connecting.......showing connection error............
this is the real problem
Does this happen on only one wifi network or on more networks? If its only on one it might be a network specific issue, like having to set DNS, or something else. If you have only experienced it on one (even if you only tested on one) what can you tell me about the network; is it your home network, school network, work network or whatever, what kind of protection it has.
Tell me us anything you can about this situation, since we cant conclude what the situation is, is it a problem with the phone, with the wifi network, aliens disrupting your phone to get some laughs out of it. It could be anything!

It happens with all the network, it tried accessing from office as well
I am trying to access wifi from my home network....... tried from office as well......
both the connection are not protected....... though I am that technical for such stuff..... but knows that anyone can access my internet. I just realized this, when one of my friend was browsing net on his laptop from my wifi connection
even my phone says that wifi is connected. but there is problem with browser... none of app is connecting....... not even FB, games or any other application
Before resetting try to reboot the phone.
done, still the same problem
Which rom do you have ? have u flashed any ??
do you have a data connection turned on?
Hi.
I have wi-fi problem too. Just appeared 2 days ago. Wi-fi was working normally at my friends house and after i've selected "forget" on his wi-fi and now i cant connect wi-fi at home. It says "unable to scan networks". In phone status there is Wi-Fi MAC address unavailable. If you have an idea just write it down!
Didnt try factory reset yet, hoping you have better idea!
Sry for bad english..
you have to be roooted:
delete or rename(i suggest an extension change with the date) bcm_supp.conf in /data/wifi/
I suggest using root explorer, terminal is also an option.
warning, you will lose saved wifi networks/passwords.
you can open the file to retrieve some passwords.
if you have a titanium backup of system data i think you could restore it with that, not sure about it.
I dont care about passwords, will get them easy.
But i'm not that good using Terminal Emulator. What should i write in it to rename/delete bcm_supp?
EDIT : you are my hero! just installed root explorer (really cool apk), renamed the file above and works fine!
If u ever come to Croatia you got a beer

Yup, root explorer is a nice app, I had to do it via the terminal myself a couple of times, not as pleasant as with root explorer.
P.S. I got a beer, yay! Where in Croatia?
We have a vibrant and a captivate.. When connected via wifi at home, the market and gmail will not connect, but both phones access the internet just fine otherwise.. They connect fine to the market and gmail using 2G or 3G, or other wifi networks..
Can anyone let me know what settings I might adjust on the router to allow connections to gmail or the market on these phones?
Strange thing is I have exactly the same problem, but this only started yesterday. The days before I was able to download several apps via market over wifi, but as of yesterday I can not even see the home screen when on wifi, no problems when on 3G. Tried opening port 5228 TCP and UDP as suggested in an older thread, but that did not work. Something changed at Google?
Update: problem went away by itself 2 days later.
I9000 stock 2.3.3
We have 3 android phones- all with the same problem.. Router is a Netgear WNR2000v3.
Edit-Reset router and the problem continues...
Check the firewall router
There is no firewall A's far A's I know. Just a wireless DSL and a router, and I have not configured any firewall...I reset the router to factory settings and it still won't work....
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
Try some other wifi area. Is the problem same or not. Maybe it's good to delete APN from settings and let it configure again.
have you tried paying you're cable bill?
seriously.. the phones all connect via other wifi networks just fine. They connect to this router just fine as well.. All internet connectivity is great except anything to do with google's apps.. youtube, maps, gmail, market.. none will work, but google.com on the browser works fine.
I had this problem 2 days ago. I have searched the web a lot for this problem. Now I found 3 solutions that you may wanna try.
1. Clear cache and reset to factory. Don't skip the sign in on google account. Sign in immediately! (had not worked for me though!)
2. Check your firewall settings. Especially, I used my laptop as a hotspot source with virtual wifi router(ht_tp://ww_w.virtualwifirouter.com/). I have tried connectify and virtual router, but they had problems on my laptop, while VWR is simple and effective! (I still couldn't connect to market and youtube at that moment though! Very very frustrated!)
3. I read someone said he tried to set the parameters of his mobile network manually, and it worked for him. I didn't expect much on this method but did give it a try. OMG! It worked! What's worth to notice is that I found that the instruction provided on my operator's website (Orange.fr) is actually a little bit different from the settings the phone automatically loaded.
3.
Hope it works for you guys!
I had same problem but reset of router helped...
You know what, I think it's the operator or google's dirty trick. For no obvious reason, I am blocked out of market again with wifi. I can surf on porn sites with wifi but no luck on market and google's stuff!

One more thing to add: Use static IP address for your wifi connection! Mine was not stable with automatic address!

Try to forward the ports needed for google, 5228 i think, that helped my cappy a little bit, try clearing all your networks, see if that helps. Google around for captivate wifi problems, hundreds of threads with lots of solutions.

I did try forwarded the ports for one of the phone, problem is there are three.. And port forwarding didn't work, neither did resetting the router, or resetting it to defaults, and they all had a static ip...Still no good..
If familiar with wireshark, try setting up on a computer, connecting to market with phone and see what u get. Maybe packets being blocked, hard to say.
I really tried to find this answer before posting!
My Simple Touch was working fine with my home wifi until I rooted it. Now it can't connect. The signal is fine; the nook is right beside this computer which is connected fine. It says the signal is good. It just never connects.
I tried forgetting it and adding that network again.
Suggestions?

What firmware version are you running? B&N made a number of improvements to wifi in later versions. You might upgrade to a later version and see if that work better. If you want to completely reset to factory, there are instructions for doing so.
Also, sometimes it depends on your router. Mine had trouble connecting because it didn't send it's SSID. (this problem persisted with all versions.) Check your router settings (or get your parents to) and see how it's configured, and be sure it is compatible with the nook.
some router is better, my nook2 wifi is OK in my home but does not work in office
I searched through the forums already but haven't found a solution.
I just got a new phone today but it won't connect to my wifi connection; it consistently says "authenticating" but nothing more. I know the password is correct and I even tried the security code - nothing. My laptop, netbook, and iTouch all connect fine except for the phone.
What are some things I can try to fix it? Any help would be appreciated!
This might be a "duh" but make sure your bands are compatible. With cell phones, I find G to provide the best performance. Either way, make sure your network is operating in a band your phone can support.
Also, occasionally my phones will refuse to connect to my wireless -- I find that rebooting the router takes care of it every time -- I run a pretty hacked up network though...

Try fiddling around with the authentication parameters in the router. E.g. try AES vs TKIP+AES etc. Some implementations are quite buggy.
Hey guys, I have a problem and I feel like I've tried all I can think of to try and fix it. I got both my wife and I 2 kyocera rises. We activated them and all that and got them setup on our home wifi.
Well, I noticed that my rise will work fine and surf the net fine but at random times I won't be able to access the internet (Or any internet apps) even though it says i'm connected to the network. It will work if I use that connection widget to turn off the wifi and turn it back on but then it does the same thing, says i'm connected but i'm unable to use browsers/apps. The things I have tried was: Restart the phone, Reset the modem and router, factory reset the phone (Thinking it might be an app conflict), change the router channels, and I've even setup the phone for static IP.
Nothing is working and i'm at a stand still. The weird thing though is I believe my wives phone doesnt have this problem. She doesn't surf the web as much as I do but she occasionally goes onto the phone and never complains. If it helps, the router I am using is the Netgear WNR3500L. Does anybody have any ideas I can try out?

Manually set IP information on your phone and set the DNS to 8.8.8.8 (Google). Otherwise I'd recommend checking for the latest update on the Wireless router.

I will try that and see how it is. My friend that used to work for sprint told me to disable connections optimizer as well as it has problems.
UPDATE: I thought it was working but it isn't I decided to grab my wifes phone to see if the same was happening to hers at the same time as mine and it does. Well, so it must be something wrong with my network but I'm not sure what. There's no new firmware updates either. The weird thing is, I tried my nexus 7 and my t.v.'s wifi and they both work so something is making the androids not want to stay connected or something.
Androids have this weirdness with Wi-Fi. Try disabling security.
Factory reset the router and set it back up.
I found the problem. It was intact the firmware but there was no firmware updates from net gear but then I remembered my router is open source. So I decided to try flashing tomato onto my router and now my phones aren't dropping the connection. Thanks for the help guys!
