no connection to internet through wifi

hi ppl
i installed bepe's 0.73 rom (great work!!) to my trinity.
connection to my home wifi network works w/o problems. i get an ip-address, gateway address and dns-server (with the correct values of course ).
my problem is: i can't even ping the gateway (therefore of course also no browsing the web). under "einstellungen - netzwerkkarten", the wifi-adapter's setting is "internet" (and not work).
so any ideas how to solve that? any more info you would need for debugging?
thanks in advance, ize|man

so let me change my question: is there NOONE out there who has ever got problems with wifi? does anyone have a link to a trouble shooting faq?
pls .... i spent over 5 hours no without any solution
thanks ize|man

Hi.
I used to have that kind of issue with the wifi and most of the time I had to wait and wait for the wifi to get hooked up to the router,and like I said it was WAIT.
Everything seemed to be perfect,open wifi,WEP,WPA TKIP/AES,this used to happen with the first and second rom from HTC.So what I did was take a look at the router´s firmware and get and update,I also updated the rom of the phone and started with the cooked roms.
Waht you can do is,restart/reset the wifi ap or router it helps,make sure there´s no MAC filter,though it should work with the default settings.
I hope I can help you.

thanks for the help. i change from wpa to wpa2 and i worked. don't ask me why. my laptop did work with wpa w/o any problems.
so: problem solved

I have a similar problem but in my case it seems to be the power saving options for wifi. Have to turn em off completely to get it to work at all even though signal strength is 100%. Tried all types of encryption but same problem.

Heyy Solved my prblem too
I had the same problem (got ip from AP, but couldn't ping the device, nor navigate, etc).
Solved changing the power save mode !

6.1 trouble

i've updated my phone with the kavana 6.1 rom- now my Internet sharing doesn't work- and i hate that when i sync with my computer it reads my phone as a dopod so the dashe's icon doesn't come up- can any one help with either of these problems

I flashed this rom for my girlfriends phone. Running into a lot of different issues. Not many options to customize the preferences either. However, hopefully these wonderful developers will create fixes, if they do not exist already. If they do they are probably scattered throughout the thread.

and i hate that when i sync with my computer it reads my phone as a dopod so the dashe's icon doesn't come up-

I think this happens with each upgrade because you're basically cleaning out your previous memory and starting fresh.
I don't have an answer for you regarding the internet sharing option.
However, if you want to get your old rom back you can go to T-Mobile website here is the link:
Link wasn't allowed but go to tmobile and click on support you'll see the first phone is the dash
Just go to update software. This may cure both of your issues if you don't want to bother with the current rom you have installed. However, you are still taking risks flashing the new rom. Good Luck.

I've got almost the same issue. Everything with SYNC works except for my internet sharing. It will not connect. I ave internet working on the phone, text works, it syncs when I connect the phone to the computer, I just can not use the internet sharing.
When I select connect on the phone I get that the computer is trying to acquire network address and then local area connection 6 has no or limited connection. I don't get it.

As you know, you have to first cut off your local connection server first, before turning on the Internet sharing on your mobile device. If not, it will never work, but Internet sharing works like a charm on my home network................!

Why on earth would you go back to Tmobile rom. This rom is far superior. All your issues will get worked out. That's just part of updating rom. have you read any threads on this.
I don't claim any great knowledge but does the connections settings in Activsync have anything to do with it.

I've been using this phone for a year, I use the internet sharing all of the time, mostly for work, it' s actually why I bought the phone. Now after I loaded WM6.1 I can not get the internet sharing to work. I've tried everything I've found on here, any ideas.

Internet Probelm after HTC 1.33 Update

I updated my rom to HTC 1.33 from WM6 and it doesn't connect to my WIFI at home anymore. It shows it as connected but when i try to use explorer it gives me the following:
Error: Cannot connect. Verify you have network coverage and try again.
Can anybody help? I'm fairly new at this whole thing, but i'm trying to learn and search but i haven't found anything that can help.

I just flashed to HTC 1.33 last night, myself. You need to configure your MMS settings and your internet settings. See if this site will work. (http://tmobileuspublic.wdsglobal.co...=phone.vm&selectManufacturerId=9&phoneId=1828) It did WONDERS for my connections.

Thanks but that didn't really help. The weird thing is my internet works, but just not explorer. I set up my gmail on the phone and it download fine. Google maps seem to work as well. Just internet explorer doesn't work. Also every time i try to use explorer my connection to my wifi network keeps cutting off.
hmm i wonder if i should flash to wm6.1 instead? I really want my explorer to work.

HTC Touch Pro & Internet Explorer

MAC address change on Xperia Play

Hi guys,
I opened this new thread because I already tried the search tool, even the google search, but nothing came up for the Xperia Play.
My question is, is there a way to change the wi-fi MAC address on the Xperia Play?, the reason I want to do that is because I think somebody at my job blacklisted my device from the wi-fi... some co-workers can get into the wifi network while some of us don't.
All our phones detects the WIFI network, all of us have the password (ok somebody smuggled it for us heheh )
A month ago I was able to do so, and no problem whatsoever, then it just started to get stuck while obtaining the IP address, then, disconnects from the network and get into an infinite loop not being able to sign into the network, while my desk neighbor not so-smart phone (samsung marvel) keep getting connected using the same password, so my first thought was it was only blocking smart-phones by MAC prefixes or android signature ... whatever
But yesterday another co-worker brought his just purchased Samsung Galaxy PRO (which looks like a Blackberry, but running android ), and to my surprise he did got into the wifi network without any issue (using the same password I use and gave him for trial), so I'm now pretty sure they blacklisted by MAC address
Well I manage to convince my buddy to share the network via tethering as a work around, and IT WORKED.
Anyone have an idea if what I'm thinkind is possible (being MAC blacklisted) and also if there's a way to change it on my PLAY runnin Gingerbread 2.3.3 un-rooted with stock SE SW.?
Thanks

I'm not at the pc now. Search my posts for bluetooth address with references to pocketnow tutorial for different device. Maybe you can make it work on xplay. I got one step closer locating one of the address files in one of the posts but no further. Don't know if you can do it without root.

Galaxy Tab Pro 8,4'' [SM-T320] - WLAN flapping issue

Hey guys,
FIrst of all: Thanks for maybe helping me.
So my problem is that I have a really annoying WiFi issue with my Galaxy Tab Pro. I installed a cm13 build (Link in that style because I am not allowed to share links...)
Code:
download[B]DOT[/B]cyanogenmod[B]DOT[/B]org/?device=mondrianwifi
a month ago and have one big problem with it. Whenever I want to use WLAN to connect to the internet (or use it on my local network, whatever) it just keeps flapping. It turns on and off and on and off and so on. I thought that it would be related to my home network at first (so that it doesn't get a IP or something like that), but after I checked my DHCP and general network settings and came to the conclusion that it can't be related to that. All other devices in my network are able to get a IP (and go online). When I turn on the WiFi on the tablet and check the network settings I see that it gets a IP but looses it after 1-2 secs. The thing which makes absolute no sense to me is that after a while (turning WiFi off and on again, 3-4 times) it often is able to get and keep a IP address. After that everything works fine - often for 1-2 hours until it looses the IP again and I have to begin with the game of randomness. I checked in the known bugs and could not finde that issue listet there. So I think it is maybe not related to the cm13 build I am using..? Or not even to the device? I don't know. Maybe you can help me - would be helpful enough if someone could tell me which logs I have to check when having a WiFi issue. I am quite new to such problems and don't know how I should start the troubleshooting.
So thanks in advance and greetings,
Maik
