I was wondering if anyone else have the same issue, I tried on my galaxys ,galaxy s2 and even on my galaxy tab 10.1 wifi could connect but there is no data transfer, I have tried this on several routers in my office but the result is same, is this a bug on android or hardware problem?
I have tried static IP, change many things but no chance, I even tried on different kernels but...
** my friends with blackberry and Iphone can connect to the same router and have internet
most likely your office has blocked access through mobile devices

But as I say in the first post blackberry and iphone can connect
Yes I have the same prob, goes steady for ten mins, then just stops receiving a network connection, but my desire is fine. My honeycomb tablet does the same thing, but just turning wifi on and off fixes it. This appears to need a full reboot then works perfect again for a while. I've only had this phone two hours and have noticed it so surely others have.

I too faced the similar problem in the beginning dude...later some where in the forum one user stated to reduce the security level of modem or router from WPA/WPA2 to WEP/AES...then it works flawless...i don't know whether it is a problem with android or hardware...but most of the router or modem is secured with higher level of security which could not be accessed by our SGS2..i hope this would be fixed by software update..

Its is most likely router specific problem as its not a general problem and the majority have no problem with the highest security level .

It seems to be a problem with just some devices as indicated by this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194635. For a high end smartphone worth £500, temperamental wifi is a problem i shouldn't have to put up with. My router has no problem with any other devices so it's clearly a fault with the phone.
Never had an issue with wifi and wpa / wpa2 on multiple hot spots and home. Try a factor reset and flash . On kf3 xeu

i have this problem try to set up data tranfer with this, is free and support galaxy s2 , just follow the steps and a messege will arribe with your data set up...
http://tweakker.com/wizard/step1
That tweaker site is for GPRS/3g connection, this thread is about WIFI connection, so it won't help.
I have wifi problems as well. It connects just fine when i first configured the network but it won't work back from standby, although it still looks connected it won't transfer any data. Today i noticed an extra detail, it would seem that an app that was connected was still working but anything else i started fresh (like openinng the browser to access a page) wouldn't work.
I also noticed it loosing connection once after using it continuously for around 15 minutes.
Still haven't tried changing the security settings on the router, but, i previously had an ipad2 (for a short time, then sold it because it's just an expensive toy) and it would display the same behaviour.
Before that, i had a Nexus S with the same router and it always worked flawlessly! No settings were changed in the router.
I'm going to try lowering the security to wpa or wep and test it later.
If it works it might be a problem with the router but it's also a problem with the device (phone/ipad).
EDIT: one more thing, when i first got the SGS2 it had an older rom (vodafone KE7 i think) and it worked flawlessly until i updated it to a newer version the next day. I can't be to sure this was the culprit because i didn't use it that much the day before and it was a fresh install so maybe the issue didn't have time to show up.
one of my friends has a captivate sgs he also has the same problem, seems to be an android bug, or maybe samsung, another issue on this phone is about the bluetooth , it can not discover my headset bluetooth (sony DR-BT50) I have tried galaxy s , galaxy s2 and galaxy tab 10.1 but none of them can discover the headphone seems my galaxy life is messed up
Well i had similar issues with my vibrant and even on my nexus one....i think it is android bug....but if u r using cm7 or miui...u can easily get rid of it...by going to wifi settings>>>>advanced settings>>>regulatory domain>>>>change it to 14 channels....
but my sgs2 doesnt have this prob so far....i used those settings on nexus one and vibrant....and it worked....
Hope this helps..

I din state anything like it is a general problem...and moreover i tried with my Cisco wifi and with belkin router i could not able establish connection with my sgs2 where as my iphone4 connects without any issues dude ...so i concluded that it could be a minor bug and can be resolved by software update ...

Surely it would be backwards compatible.
It should be meaningless if bluetooth 3 not support BT2.x many devices still using BT2.X, anyhow my laptop is bt2 but I can connect to my sgs or sgs2

My Glalaxy s 2 has the same problem. It was fine till i was on KF7 but things changed with KG6 now.
My SGSII connects fine to every WiFi I've tried to join (open and ones that I know the password for). That is at least 3 different models of D-Link routers, a few Belkin and others that I can't recall.
I don't count a connection until I can actually view the internet and live stream the radio and I have been on it for more than an hour (I was proving to an ipad & ipad2 users that there was nothing wrong with a WiFi router and it was their toys that kept on dropping the connection).
I am was using the E7 and now F3 stock ROMs.
I did have a problem for about half a day. It would say connected to the WiFi but I couldn't get to the internet. I had to switch off the WiFi and connect via data connection and then try again with the WiFi - sometimes it would work sometimes it didn't. The only thing I installed prior to the problem was the Twitter app (from the market). Once I uninstalled that app and rebooted the phone everything was working fine. I can't say for definite that it was the cause of the problem.
To the OP: since you are connected to the work's WiFi, could the problem with not seeing the internet be due to the Work using a proxy server. That is what my work has.

Well I have a router that was supplied by imagine.ie, its a Motorola router and they with-hold the password to change settings on the router, have you heard the like????
Anyway trying that twitter suggestion, maybe the sync function was causing intermitttent wifi problems
Edit: Scrap them not giving out passwords http://www.imagine.ie/wimax_hub_setup.html
After a few hours survey I could connect my phone to the wifi, but Im not sure if this method works for you, anyhow I will explain here check it on your phone and report back
-Downaload the application "wifi static" from the market and install
-turn your wifi on and then run the application
-in the application choose add configuration,a window will popup saying have found a wifi connection will ask you to set for this connection or no just accept
-exit the application and turn off wifi
-turn on wifi and try to connect to internet,if you can connect then you are done if you can not go to below
-go to wifi static and choose the configuration which is already set and change the DNS I changed DNS1 to 8.8.8.8 and DNS2 8.8.4.4
-reboot (maybe not neccessary but recommended to do)
-turn on wifi and connect to internet and check if you still can not then...
-wait for me for further study
Hi guys,
I've been trying to solve this on my own for a long time, but I've found no clue on how to do it.
I have an ADSL2 router with wifi at home and many devices connected to it via wifi (smartphones, notebooks, pcs) and every one of them works fine. Only problem is my Samsung S5830 which connects to the wifi, THE INTERNET WORKS FOR A 4-5 SECONDS and then it just stops loading pages and everything else, it is connected to the wifi but the internet doesn't work. Every other device works on that router but this Ace. Strange thing is, that on other Wifi (hotspot made by my HTC One) the Ace works just fine, so it is not a problem with Wifi driver/rom or something like that.
Solutions I've tried :
1. *#*#526#*#* code to restart wifi driver
2. Using Static IP
3. Changing DNS
4. Restarting router/phone many times
The router is TP-Link TD-W8961NB.
Strange thing is that I cannot even access the router's configuration page on 192.168.1.1 after that 5 seconds, so the problem isn't just in accessing the internet.
Also, I've checked all firewall/security/blocking functions of the router and none of them should be responsible for this, noting that all other devices work.
Thanks for any other ideas, I'm seriously fed up with this.
Hello. First of all I want to apologize for my bad English... I'm still learning it. Second of all, this problem is appearing on any device I try to connect to my PC's Wifi Hotspot, but to be specific:
- Huawei Ascend Y511
- Samsung Galaxy Y (GT5360, not really sure for that one, I don't have access to check the exact model)
- Vonino Sirius QS (Tablet)
- Prestigio Quantum Multipad 4 (9.7" / Tablet)
- Samsung Galaxy Tab3 8.0
- Samsung Galaxy S4 / S5
- LG G Flex
(I have a hobby to collect different phones and tablets, yeah... it's crazy I know )
Recently I installed Windows 7 on my laptop because the old windows XP was bugged completely... The only working components were the browser and the Bluetooth (Which is not working currently). First of all I tried to start a wifi hotspot from the networking and sharing center that comes with Windows 7, but I couldn't manage to do so. So I went to another option - softwares that enable the Wifi Hotspot on your laptop. The best result I got was Connectify, but I don't have the funds to buy it, so I used it temporarly (a week or so), and then it stopped working (Ethernet Sharing problems). Since then all the softwares I tried are starting the Wifi Hotspot, but when I try to connect every device gets stuck at "Obtaining IP Adress...". I tried looking for solutions, but I couldn't find anything that helps. I tried setting the IP adress to automatically obtain IP adress (The one in the change adapter settings tab in Control Panel), but then the network itself does not want to work. I ran out of ideas on how I can fix this...
Just some additional info: The local area connection is shared and the wifi is allowed, also the WLAN Autoconfig service is working properly.
Refresh IP

Try checking your IP Configuration and refresh the IP In the Windows Internet and Sharing Center.

Did that many times, but didn't work. I just hate Windows 7... it's the worst windows for network adapters -.-
It is so weird when Google wants you to be an advanced user for its operating system
And it also so wired when a midrange phone can detect all of the wifi networks while your nexus which is made by Google cannot..
Well my device is detecting some of the wifi networks, I have figured it out when my company installed a new router 'which is Huawei by the way' firstly my phone detected the network but after a few minutes it has been disconnected and then didn't appear on my wifi networks list, I had to change the channel to 11 so my device will be able to connect.
Since I cannot access every router for example in the code shops or in the malls it is impossible to waste my time to go to the administrator of every place I visit and ask them to please switch the channel, and I have found many people who are having the same problem but no single answer from Google 'who are terrible with their support'.
Is anyone else who is having this problem or any one who's can help me I would be so pleased. My data is limited to 2 GB...
After all I am so surprised by the support of Apple actually I have switched from Samsung to Sony to nexus in order to balance trying the custom roms while haven't a great device for every day use so I can focud on my work during the working days and play with my phone in the weekends, but it is nit the thing I am having..
Just got the S8 and I have 3 Wi-Fi access points at home to cover the whole house. My S8 has been registered with the passwords for all of the APs but it continually rejects the connections with an exclamation mark after the WiFi icon having connected and then shown a message that the Internet connection may not be available. The Internet connection is available as other devices are connected and using it perfectly. If I switch the Wi-Fi on and off and reboot the S8 the issue corrects itself but I should not have to go through that nonsense every time I come home and want to use my Wi-Fi. I have explored the advanced options on the connection settings and they appear to be quite limited (DHCP Etc). Is there some way to solve this issue? I have no problem with other android devices connecting to the same hotspots. Any ideas that might lead to a solution would be appreciated.

I had this problem when i first got my s8 from vodafone but when i got this latest update it's been good no issues with internet anymore.
I have this problem as well with my S8 from Verizon. Worked flawlessly for a week and them today I get this error. Very frustrating. I know the SMG955U from Verizon is already unlocked but is there any way to put the International ROM on the phone seeing that the Verizon and the International are the same?
I've tried all the resets etc and the WiFi connects but I get the 'Internet connection may not be available' message.
Update 27/04/2017
Thanks for the reply. My S8 developed some interesting issues including the switching on of 'do not disturb' mode intermittently and along with the Wi-Fi issue the mobile data was failing in areas where a full 4G signal was present. Rebooting, resetting etc did not resolve the issue and I returned the phone to CPW for advice. The staff at the Glasgow store wasted no time and exchanged it on the spot after some negotiation with their technical service centre. Full marks to CPW for the prompt service and I can report that all of the previous issues have now been resolved with the replacement handset. I thought it worthwhile to post this information so that others who experience similar issues may be able to get a similar resolution.
Poor WIFI performance
I also have issues with the wifi of the phone, /i will get the terminal replace some time today or next week.
1. WIFI keeps disconnecting, actually it's flapping connct&disconnect for 5-10 min until it finally connects, on this matter I have seen on the acces point that it tried to allocate an ip from an unknown without asking DHCP server for an IP renew it actually tries to alocate itself the last known ip, and clearly disconnects because of lack of internet access, this happens normally as power saving mode is on, disabeling power saving and assigning a static ip on the phone seems to resolve the issue.
2. poor wifi signal... no fix for this thus far
- i have 580Mbps speed connection on my S5 and only 120-240Mbps on my S8, steaming not working and connection in general very bad, time ots and stuf, although I position myself at 10cm away from the wifi router antenas i only get 540Mbps signal, although I have an AC1750 router , s5 gets 840 in the same spot... I think the modem(that is part of the Exynos chipset) does not work wekll with Atheros based AP´s , I have an Archer C7 with 2.4ghz QCA9558 chipset capable of 450 Mbps theoretical speed, but only uses 2 antenas as s8 only has 2 from my knowledge and reaches a max of 140Mbps(should of connected at 300Mbps at 10cm in theory ) with the s8 and QCA9880-BR4A on the 5ghz side of things with a theoretical speed of 1300Mbps should work at 866 with the S8 because of the 2 antenas of the S8.
phone changed 90% of problems fixed
Hello, just got my phone replaced, tha new unit has way better wifi signal considering I hace atheros router and the phone has broadcom 43xx chipset... worth considerign changing to a broadcom router...
Hi,
I have found a solution to this problem.
1. GO to wifi settings
2. Forget the wifi network
3. CONNECT AGAIN BUT BEFORE CONNECTING GO TO ADVANCED OPTIONS AND CHOOSE STATIC INSTEAD OF AUtOMATIC. Enter in the ip address etc and connect.( It requires to be entered manually) Problem will be solved.

Change the DNS...
Hi there..
I had just the same problem with s8 plus and s7 edge(after updating to android 7.0), it kept saying "internet may not be available", I changed the DNS to 8.8.8.8 and tue problem solved. Go to SETTINGS》WIFI》SSID》MANGE NETWORK》change the IP SETTINGS to STATIC》then change the DNS1 to 8.8.8.8 hit save and you are good to go.
Sorry if there are any mistakes. I am new to XDA and not good in english.

I have same problem and it is very annoying. I got 2 S8 plus and both have the problem.
There are 3 WIFI Router that covers my house. I have problems saying internet might not be available every time I connect. This is very annoying. Other Phones in the house like Iphone do not have the problem.
What I noticed is that the IP range of my router is:
192.168.1.1
But my S8 says he is connected but the IP is
192.168.0.100
Anyone have same problem?
Thanks!

I found a quick work around on how to fix this temporarily until Samsung issues a patch.
just turn off 5ghz SSID broadcasting and you should be ok for now.
here is a quick how to video i made on just in case.
https://youtu.be/Nu5FjDPLn-M
I'm having a very similar problem with my home WiFi and my Verizon S8+ I bought from Samsung's website. I've tried switching from DHCP to static and entering all my info. No luck. I've also switched my dns1 to 8.8.8.8 and dns2 to 8.8.4.4, and my WiFi router is set to 2.4ghz only. No success in resolving the issue. Currently my phone will show the "internet may not be available" with the added exclaimation point for a few minutes when first connected, then the exclaimation goes away and I'll have regular full speed internet for around 25-45 seconds before it goes back to a non-internet state. Any suggestions?
Try changing in your router the security setting. If your using WPA2 AES/TKIP, change to just WPA2 TKIP and see if this works for you...
I was having the same exact issue for months. I changed to TKIP only and have been rock solid ever since. No more ! at all... I'm gonna switch to just AES today and see how that works.
Changed to WPA2-AES and within the hour had ! back and no internet. Went back to TKIP and rock solid again. Looks like a possible bug with AES to me. Sticking with wpa2-tkip setting for now.
I'm having this same exact issue.
Anyone who knows what to look for to fix this, what info or files do you need from me? I'm at the end of my tether with this ****
I am having the exact same issue on my galaxy tab s2, even on the replacement. Due to the being such an intermittent problem, it wouldn't do it when Samsung support checked it out...
This happens on both 2.4 ghz and 5 ghz frequency for me. I've tried downloading a wifi fixer, I've reset network settings, and turned off nearby device scanning. I've also tried doing what a forum suggested by changing the ip settings from dhcp to static but it wouldn't connect to wifi at all. Not sure what else to try...
I read that it may be due to nougat 7.0 software. I was suggested by Samsung to first put the tablet on safe mode (this disables third party apps, and would reveil if an app was causing the problem) but the problem still persists. Also did a hard reset on the first tablet I had but it still done the same problem...
I always thought that this was a is problem in 7.0, and was addressed in 7.1. Hopefully, when the next major update comes out, this issue will be resolved.
Oh come on Samsung!
It's been 4 months since the first post and still no solution.
And it's a basic wifi connection!
Internet may not be available! = Samsung may not be available
Heya all. First post I guess
Edit: Gah it was the second. I have to controll myself better and not spam.
So I had the same problem and tried more or less all.
My "solution" was to disable the firewall on the router which means some settings/security there was triggered. My guess is that it's the "Smart Network connection" that trigger it if the phone have both poor Wi-Fi and 4G. It then jumps back and forward = firewall detect strange behaviour and block. That's why there are so many strange "fix" related to the router - hidden network - no security - disable 5Ghz and so on.
Can someone please test asap as I have a plan But if it's not this to test
