Wifi Won't connect sometimes!!!!! - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The wifi connection has been on and off for me.
I am using CM 6.1.1
The wifi is from my home wireless network.
I can connect to it sometimes on some days, and on other days I can't connect to it at all.
I tried rebooting my phone but it doesn't work.
I know it's not a network problem because my computer and laptop can wirelessly connect to it just fine.
So what's up with that?
Symptoms:
-Detects network
-tries to connect to network
-gets stuck on the "Obtaining IP from blah blah blah network step"

Problem with WIFI

I have a problem with my wifi, at work I connect to a Addon wireless router and most of the time it works ok.
But at the moment I'm having a problem where the phone finds the network, says remembered, secured with wpa/wpa2 psk, then it suddenly drops to not in range and my wifi status is 'disconnected'
It continously is doing this at the moment and just wont connect, the WPA key is correct for it as I have connected fine to the router before.

Click to collapse
is the signal weak? i.e are you far from the wireless router?
Im sitting next to router and the signal is Excellent
Is there anything on the router that could be blocking my phone from connecting?
yes if someone has setup mac address filtering
Mac restrict mode = disabled
i have a router that every 3months or so i have to reboot!
i see it in the wifi available list but it won't connect
turn off and back on and hey presto.
not ideal i know but hey ho
could try a reboot on phone too

Internet Connection Sharing with Sprint

My wife has the Sprint version of the HTC Snap with the stock Windows Standard 6.1 ROM. I'm trying to setup Internet Connection Sharing so that she can tether to her laptop using a USB cable.
I don't think this phone has WiFi, so I cannot use a WiFi Router.
When I go into ICS, select Connect, and plug in the cable to the laptop, it seems to connect to the laptop, but displays Waiting for Network on the phone. The laptop cannot conenct to the Internet. Did Sprint do something to disable ICS? The phone has a good signal and has no issues connecting to the Internet by itself.
Has anyone gotten this to work on the Sprint network?

[Q] WiFi router problem

Hello,
I have some strange problem - whenever my HTC 1x is connected to my WiFi connection, after some time it kills internet connection for all connected devices. WiFi connection stays perfect but internet connection becomes lost until I disconnect my phone and reconnect all other devices. This happens on any internet connection, not only on my personal. Maybe someone has any ideas how can this be fixed?

[Problem] Wifi acting weird

Hi guys suddenly my HOX's wifi connection crashed. I can turn on wifi, search for connections but I can't establish a connection: it keeps trying to obtain the IP address without success.. I have multiple devices connected to my home network so the problem is definitively the HOX.
When this happened I was on slimkat rom so I changed rom: ARHD, CyanogenMod, stock... still can't connect to my home network and even if I create an hotspot with another device it can't connect to the hotspot ( so it's not my home network fail )..
Any ideas?
