really2 frustating isnt it

I had the same problem a couple of days ago. The phone kept reconnecting to the router. Now this happened during an arctic blizzard and only for a few minutes. I had the impression it was a temporary hang up in the ADSL modem that made the router "hang" waiting for connection outwards. The problem disappeared by it self so I didn't get around to troubleshooting but I'd probably have tried re-setting the wired connection, re-setting the wi-fi router & then scanning for a new WiFi connection. But, as mentioned above, it is only a guess.

Elo.

Any solution to this, getting the exact same issue, just been seraching the forum for help, and your thread is the only real one ive found with the same issues.
Was out the country the other day , and in a bar trying to conect to there free wifi,
found the network instantly, just got stuck saying "obtaing address" then after a few mins, changed to network available and the wifi said disconected.
Now im home having the same issues, tho eventually it conected to my home network, i switched off the wifi and on again and just cant get it to conect again!
This is a big issue, as really need the wifi to work.
btw, mines factory 2.2 rom, no rooting etc build no 1.39.110.1

hi,
I have a problem with the wifi connection of my desire hd.
The desire hd shows "connected" status and obtains an ip adress.
But when i try to visit a website, it takes a while and then get an error "server communication failed. try again later"
I already did a factory reset and yesterday i did a rom update to Android 2.2.1

hi
i had same problem with wifi connect
i check connection in system infomation
i saw the connections is UDP not TCP
so every internet connect is error
after i turn off wifi and restart the connect will be ok
this problem start after update 2.2.1
does anybody can help?......

I had a similar issue with my Orange BB Router, where some things would work and others not, and some things very intermittent.
In the end I used my old sky router as the wireless access point and this seemed to solve the problem, so i assume it was a router issue rather than a phone issue. I've not had any problems since.

Exactly the same problem here.
I've tried flashing a custom rom (ARHD), and changing different radios and they all don't work.

wifi reconnection problem

Seen the other one x problems but didn't seem to match mine, i have a htc sensation that has worked off my router on wireless for months but my one x seems to have problems. At first when connected everything seems good but if you leave the area or drop connection it will sometimes never be able to reconnect regardless of stop/starting the wifi or rebooting the phone, the only solution to get it to work again is by reboot the modem. All it does is say connecting/saved/connected/saved over and over again.
Does anyone have any ideas or similar experiences ?.
had prob connecting wifi hotspot only but that was down to apn settings, sorry.
I've had the same issue, it'll connect fine, have an ip but won't even ping by ip address (ping 8.8.8.8). I'm on 1.29.401.11.
Sent from my HTC One X
Had the same issue, reported to HTC they said they where looking to it but never got back to me. Anyway it was eventually solved when I flashed the 1.29.401.7 ruu. Don't know if it was the update or a wipe of the phone that fixed for me. I know it's inconvenient but I would do a hard reset and see if problem still persists

Haha did you find this on page 10 lol, its happening a lot less and have also updated to 1.29.401.11 so will see how that goes
@Danofdanger
Just search for Wifi and you'll get lots of posts about bad wifi connectivity...set the router security to wep and you'll stay connected.
If you switch phone wifi off and then on again it will reconnect to the router fine if wep, but not if wpa.
With wpa it seems to loop.. if i reset the router password with wpa then it will take and be fine until i switch phone wifi off, then on again and it wont reconnect until i reset the router password, same as you describe.
I'm on WEP and have this issue with a 834GT router. Traffic bandwidth is terrible. I have given it a statis reservation and manually configured the connection, which has made the issue slightly better.

[Q] HTC One X throws wi-fi network offline

Have a strange problem with my HTC One X:
When I turn on the wifi on my HOX to connect to my homenetwork, the phone throws my network offline, meaning I dont have any internet access on any other device on my network. When I break the connection with my network on my phone, my network comes online in a matter of seconds... Funny thing is that my wife has the same phone as I and with hers everything works as it should be.
Already have send my phone back to HTC, but got it returned today and still gives the same problems?
Anybody experienced the same problem, or anybody any ideas how to solve this?
Thanx
i have exact the same issue, i tried everything you can imagine but no luck so far. I believe it has nothing to do with the settings of my router etc but that its related to the way the HOX handles the connection. Its sooo random sometimes I have internet but no market, sometimes the other way around. and randomly it just kills my whole wifi network soo my laptops etc are disconnected and i can't reconnect untill i reset the router. As a system administrator i just cant accept it! there is no explanation for this!
But i won't give up untill i fixed this problem, even if it means i have to go through another week of sleepless nights! Using a different router IS NOT an option!
Have you tried setting up a MAC address filter on your router? So DHCP will always give you a specific ip address for your phone? Does that still kick everything else off your network?
Very strange that your wife's identical phone doesn't cause it.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I have tried everything. Changed settings in the router, given a fixed ip address to the HOX, changed the router, put an extra router in my network, tried the neighbours router, it doesnt matter what I do, everytime it throws my network offline.
Before I send it to HTC we established it could be a hardware problem, but when I got it back yesterday, all they have done was updated the software on the phone. When I compared the software version to the other HOX phone, its exactly the same, so all they must have done is the OTA from a couple of weeks ago..
Waiting for a reply from HTC..
I have the same problem. Router is Netcomm 11n. Only plays up on that router. I finally brought a network extender, and connect to that and have had no problems since.

Cannot connect to WiFi

Is anyone else having issues connecting to wifi? When I try to connect to wifi at my house, I get a pop-up error saying "AP currently not in use. Internet connection slow." If I click retry, it comes up again. If I click cancel, it says "Failed to obtain IP" and is not connected.
I have tried restarting my model/router with no luck. My Note 3, laptop, and other devices have no problem connecting to this wifi network...
I had a problem with wifi,but sounds different then your issue.Mine would just disable after obtaining ip.Samsung rep at best buy reflashed phone.That saved all data and apps.AND,it fixed wifi.If you can't work thru your issue,go to best buy or att store and get it reflashed.Cant hurt.
Good luck.

OK, so went to the ATT store today and they reflashed my phone. Got home just now and tried to connect to wifi, same issue
Is anyone else having this problem?
Fixed it.
SOLUTION: I changed my router encryption type from WEP to WPA and now it works no problem
Try rebooting your router, I had the same issue the first day I got mine and a reboot fixed it.

Your neighbors are going to be pissed. They can't steal your wireless any more.
Seriously... You did yourself a favor... WEP = ROFL stupidity for wireless networks.

No go for me I just Got my N4 from Verizon last monday and having the same issue u had. I changed my encryption from wep to wap and still same problem. Ima go to a verizon store and see if the "reflash" the phone like some suggest here. Might help my problem
Hi all,
I also experience the same issue from time to time. I have this happen on both my home network (WPA2-Personal) and work (WPA2-Enterprise). My fix is to either reboot the phone or activate Airplane Mode for about 20 seconds and then disable Airplane Mode. After doing that, wifi picks right up for me. YMMV.
I can try to get the exact error log messages from our networking technician at work if it would be helpful to anyone.
Out of curiosity, do any of you have other peripherals connected at the time you experience the issue (Pebble Watch, etc.)?
Same issue
With my GN4, I can connect to my home WIFI no problem and my GF's WIFI no problem but when I go to my Dad's, I CANNOT connect to his WIFI (Netgear WTG624v3) but both of my sisters with a Samsung Tab 3 and Samsung S4 CAN connect to my Dad's WIFI. It's really aggravating. Basically, when I try to connect, it says "connecting" "saved" Then it says "scanning", and says "connecting" "saved" again and again ..... But never connects.
I have tried changing just about every WIFI setting on his router including resetting the router. Tried removing the encryption making an "Open" network and STILL can't connect... and tried every encryption type provided and still nothing. I set the dynamic address range from .4 to .254 (on router) so I could try connecting with a static address to 192.168.1.2 / .3 and still nothing. I tried removing my GN4 browser cache, and setting it to airplane mode(20 secs)... nothing.
I'm at a loss.. given that both of my sisters with two different devices can connect to my Dad's WIFI but I can't with my GN4? But I can connect my GN4 to other WIFI networks, no prob.
UPDATE: Next, I will try downgrading the firmware version on the router to an earlier version. Hopefully, that's the solution. I will report my findings here.
Downgrading or using an older Firmware version for this Netgear WTG624v3 router DID THE TRICK!
If anyone else is having the inability to log into a WIFI router, try installing an older router Firmware version. I got the idea from here:

Hey guys, i really need your help!!
My HTC 10 is connected to my home wifi and has no internet suddenly.
All my other wifi devices work fine. So I dont get why its not working?!
Yesterday it worked fine, things I did before I was home again and stopped working:
Tethering, being in a different country for some hours
Things I tried to fix it:
static ip
2.4ghz only
router b+g mode only
automatic time and date
hard reset
network reset
different dns
Okay, close the thread please.
It was the fault of my accesspoint.
It wasn't configured correctly.

Problem wifi and google play

Hello.
From shortly after I got the phone, in the signal strength icon, I get an x. I can navigate, the wahtsapp works without problems, but I can not download applications from google play. If I restart, there are times when the x disappears and I can download without problems, but after a while it appears again.
With the wifi, at first it worked without problems, but now, it connects but there is no internet.
Any idea why that might be?
Thanks
Regards

A. Probably your ISP / router configuration. Check them. In PHL, sometimes our ISP will have problems with internet without acknowledging customers about their problems.
B. Your phone is far away from the router (it will randomly connect briefly and disconnect in long periods if I'm like 8-10m away from the router).
C. Try resetting network from Settings (see pic)

Hmm, I guess it's the weakness and having that behavior of connecting WiFi with SD 625, especially our device (daisy_sprout). I've read somewhere on XDA, 4PDA (Russian site) and Mi Forums that after updating it to Android Pie, the WiFi connectivity is not stable, especially when Bluetooth audio turned on.
Hello.
I updated the software from the updates I came in at google play, and for one day I was able to use the wifi without problems, but the next day I did the same thing again.
Looking at the connection, I saw that the mac changes it. In the connection, instead of appearing the mobile mac, I appear another. It doesn't always do that. Now the wifi connects, but there is no internet.
Greetings
Hello.
I figured out why I had the problem. I have an application with which I define which programs can connect to the Internet, and which not, and I did not have an android option activated, which was the one that allowed to connect to the wifi without problems.
Greetings
