I have a weird WIFI issue only at work, Android Market cannot download apps or games.
I can browse the internet, and look at news, weather, google etc just fine.
Sometimes the internal Mail app also gives a error saying it cannot connect. but the Gmail app is fine.
I have an orange 500 MB connection, and only got my phone yesterday. i calculate using 100MB in a day over 3g already Worrying.
Ok, got it.. Proxy issue.
I wonder if it is possible to go the other way to tethering, use the PC's internet connection on the phone? I could do that with activesync. hmm.
Only certain ports are allowed over wireless where I work, so market doesn't work for me either.

How many files did you try? Maybe the one you were trying was the problem?
just log in with google talk and you can download.
I don't think it'll let you download from the Market if it says you've got low disk space, if that's the case
Okay, I can connect to the Internet when I'm using my Wi-Fi connection with no problem, and also when I'm connected via MediaNet. However, when my Wi-Fi connection is on, I get connection errors when trying to connect to Marketplace, AppCenter, etc. I can still navigate the Internet just fine, otherwise, but if I want to connect to the Marketplace, I have to shut the Wi-Fi connection off.
My guess is I fat-fingered a connection setting, but I don't know which one and what the settings should be. Can anyone help me out with the default connection settings for an AT&T Tilt 2? I don't like the idea of having to use my plan data usage to access Marketplace and such.
Thanks
Do you turn off the proxy when using Wifi?
Nope, didn't mess with the proxy setting.
I dug around more elsewhere and found someone with a similar problem relating to authentication for Marketplace. The fix, for Marketplace at least, is to simply uninstall Marketplace. The shortcut remains, so click on that and it asks if you want to install Marketplace. Seems to work just fine after that. Not terribly concerted with AppCenter, and I don't think you can uninstall that, anyway.
So Marketplace is working once more, but the AT&T stuff is still a no-go. AppCenter/Media Mall, Mobile Video, Navigator, etc. won't connect. I ran the restore proxy cab, which did nothing, so I disabled it again. Not sure what I goofed up to render those apps useless.
Make sure you have MediaNet as your selected network. The AT$T ISP is suddenly very flaky.
Hey everyone,
I've been searching and reading lots of threads and haven't found one that seems to address the problem I'm having.
So I have a Tilt 2 currently with NRGZ28's Energy Oct 20 ROM (installed earlier this evening). The problem is that I can't seem to transfer large (let's say 5MB+) files over instant messaging apps (AIM, Yahoo, MSN/Windows Live) or via FTP without having the file either fail with an error, or just sitting there with the completion time climbing higher and higher.
When I check Windows 7's Task Manager and click on the Networking tab, there's no bandwidth usage at that point. I can still send and receive IMs on all the networks at once, Outlook is still functional, web pages still load, but the files just won't move.
I have a similar problem when trying to view videos on Hulu. YouTube and other sites do better, but they stop to buffer far too often to make it fun. Even with 360p videos on YouTube, it stops quite a bit.
My signal strength shows 4 bars and H (3G).
I have the latest radio ROM for AT&T. I previously was using the factory ROM and thought updating the radio might help, but it seemed to make no difference.
Possibly related to this:
I have a laptop and a desktop. When I use the WiFi router app with this ROM, the laptop connects to it without problems, but the desktop, which has a Realtek Wireless N USB adapter, sees it, connects, and then most of the time has no Internet access. Even with the laptop turned off. The adapter is set for DHCP and all the usual default stuff, but it lists the gateway as being 192.168.1.2 or .0.1 (I forget which now), when the laptop lists .1.1.. A few weeks back, I could have both connected to the WiFi router in the phone without problems, and even copy files between the computers. Now the desktop works right about 1 in 10 attempts but works fine using the Phone As Modem thing with a USB connection.
But even using the USB connection, I still have the exact buffering or not loading at all, or not transferring files problem.
I found that using Total Commander on the phone, I can connect to my FTP server and upload a 35MB (the only one I tested) file very quickly without any problems. So the problem appears to be with tethering of any kind.
Speedtest.net usually reports about 1.0 or 1.1mbps incoming and about .3mbps outgoing.
I'm using MediaNet for the connection and have used most of the Energy releases over the past 5-6 months. I also ran Task29 several updates back. I haven't since, but I didn't see any difference before running it (probably 10 ROM updates) and then maybe 5 after running it.
I'm in Orlando, Florida and when downloading from various servers, I usually get 350K/sec, give or take. I can't understand how that's not enough to watch 360p YouTube videos. Sometimes they'll buffer just far enough ahead to not be a problem, othertimes I'm not so lucky and have to pause for 30 seconds to get a minute of video buffered.
The desktop is a Q6600 with 8 gigs of RAM and Win 7 Ultimate, the laptop is an AMD 2GHz with 4 gigs of RAM and Win 7 Home Premium.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Eric
Anyone?
I also just found I couldn't upload a 30 meg video to Facebook (I assume that's over HTTP port 80). I got about 10 megs out and then it just stopped transferring. Task Manager Networking was dead and time remaining kept climbing, but there was no timeout.
So it doesn't seem to be related to ports, but more so with outgoing data and tethering. And I have the same problems with USB or WiFi tethering..
Thanks!
Eric
Anyone?
Bump?
I just did a test on speedtest.net to Wichita (that's what it detects is closest, not that it's anywhere near Orlando).. Download was 1.93, though it seemed to sit around 1.8 megabits/sec during most of it. But these timeouts are still a problem. I really could use some advice here
Thanks,
Eric
the market and google sync is not working over wifi but the internet is working i can browse and download over wifi with no problem but when i close the wifi and use the 3g internet the market and the google sync works

Hi.
This happens with any Wi-Fi? Did you try with another Wi-Fi with different ISP?
Google Play needs port 5228 (I think is this one) opened. If your ISP is blocking it, you will never be capable to connect over its service. Being capable to download over 3G, I supposed that your operator of telephony is different to your ISP.
I'm running AOKP toro Jelly Bean MR1 Build 2 and using the native tether app with that ROM. I just crossed the 4GB data limit on my plan, but it's set to just bill me an extra $10 for 1GB, so i don't think that's the issue.
I can access the internet and any website on the phone itself, but when i tether to my laptop the internet does not work. I can access the google sites, send a receive email, access google drive and edit documents. Local dropbox folder "cannot establish secure connection" and i cannot access any site on the internet other than google and google search results. Never had this kind of issue before so i'm a bit lost as to what to try. I've restarted the computer, shut down and rebooted the computer, rebooted the phone, turn on and off the mobile data etc and nothing seems to work.
Any troubleshooting steps would be appreciated.
