I've noticed lately, that when connected via WiFi, my Galaxy Nexus cannot retrieve my emails from my exchange account - I get the unable to connect to server message. If I switch over to the cell radio (4g or 3g), it connects fine.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks,
Wad
No trouble here since switching from my D1 to my GNex. I use touchdown to access my exchange email though and I'm always on wifi. If you don't use TD it is highly recommended. Great app!

Have you had this problem on several wifi networks, or just one?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
It is most prevalent on my home network (att dsl). That said, it also happens at work.
It is an intermittent problem - it will sync sometimes, just not most of the time.
And, I do not use Touchdown, just the stock exchange account.

im having the same intermittent problem on my galaxy nexus over wifi with exchange
I have no trouble at home or at work using WiFi to sync with the default Email app that comes with ICS.
I am on a GSM Nexus and not using Exchange, I do see wifi problem when screen is off, however.
Large download / Shoutcast streaming will be interrupted within a few seconds after the screen is turned off.
From what I gathered, it looks like wifi went into Power Saving Mode (PSM) which requires supported access point to maintain the connectivity.
I wish there was a way to disable PSM on Galaxy Nexus as it appears that none of my APs support this mode.

I am using vp3gs 3.61 rom with windows live messenger version 10.6.0031.2600. no matter what I do it won't connect on my WPA-PSK enabled router. I can connect fine to the internet.
Any special setup I need to do to get it to work?
Thanks for any help.
EDIT
Could someone on ATT disable the phone and use WIFI only and see if you can connect to LIVE?
I am using 10.6.0031.1600(older than yours) but I am able to connect to live services using the wifi with WPA-PSK.
I am using my own cooked rom.
Search in all the forums I remember some people had the simillar issues and had some 'workarounds'
Sorry I do not really remember.
I too also had a problem with .2600, reverted to .1600 and all is good over wifi. By the way, I'm using WPA TKIP on my wifi.
Tried that one too and still get the "there was a problem signing you in to messenger" error after checking internet connectivity.
try these ideas.
1 ensure your wifi settings are to internet and not work
2 ensure you dnt have the ip address set up in exceptions (these ips are only for intranet)
3 turn off your phone entirely. soft reset your phone. check that wifi is still internet and not work.
4 turn on wifi only. check that u have normal internet access. emails and hotmail etc work ok. then open messenger and sign in.
5 if you have to, use wlm switch user command and relogin.
this should work. once u have run and got it working, you can turn your phone back on and it should continue to use wifi and not 3g

Still times out on checking internet connection.
I get email and internet fine. but no WLM.
I am using ATT. What should there be under Connections?
I have tried 2 My ISP and Media.net on My ISP it times out automatically, on Media.net it takes a while to time out.
Also did a hard reset to make sure that it wasnt anything I had installed. With the stock rom I still get the time out.
the proxy server u r using will b blocking that port.
I use telstra in australia, internet and push email works with proxy on, but wlm doesnt.
so i just turn off proxy and everything works except some of the telstra stuff which i dont want anyway.
proxy tends to give a garden firewall of their preferred content.
dunno how to deal with att, but suggest one of your connections should allow you to bypass the proxy styled firewall garden of att.
soz i dont have it to help u further, except to point u towards the proxy manager.
just to reiterate and emphasis the telstra proxy manager controls over rides and screws up 3g/next G connections AND my wifi.
only by turning this proxy manager off can i use wifi and 3g fully.
Thanks, there is a cab that disables the proxy on the att phone, so I disabled it, but that didnt help either.
Wlm 10.6.0031.2600
Hi, does anyone have the cab or installer for the latest WLM 10.6.0031.2600? Can someone post it or make it available for download? Thanks a million
Is anyone who has ATT able to use Windows Live Messenger?
Okay since WLM obviously doesnt work over wifi. How do you guys setup your outlook to get Hotmail?

Absolutely. I use it all the time. Mostly through 3G but sometimes through my home wireless network. Never had a problem.
Memnoch30, what version of WLM you using and do you have it set any special way in connections to use WIFI?
Well it seems I am not the only one having this problem, I got an interesting PM stating another person has the same problem as I do. If someone else could do me a favor, turn off the phone in comm manager, but keep wifi on. Can you still connect to Live???
Anyone? Thanks in advance
Hi
Just try to keep the Red button pressed ~3s (it will cancel the GPRS connection) then Messenger will use the wifi one (i do like that since i use pocket msn).

Doesn't work for me, all that does is close out Live messenger.

It doesnt work even if I turn off GPRS and leave wifi only.
anyone got weird intermittent wireless issues?
Every now on then, and then seemingly only on some apps, wireless network connectivity will come to a crawl and / or seemingly stop completely. Apps time out etc. but I know the network is fine as my flatmate's galaxy nexus / my laptop remain fine. The most common culprit is the play store. I turn off wireless and go on HSPA, wait a while, go back to wireless, all good.
Also, once I had to kill chrome beta to fix it.
What gives?
I am having some minor wifi issues too, but i think they are slightly different from wintermute's problem.
Both my wifes and my One X won't reconnect to our wifi after returning to the house. The only way I have been able to get them to re-connect is to reboot the router.
The One X's try to reconnect appear to, then instantly disconnect and just keep cycling. Turning the wifi off and on doesn't seem to help.
Our Asus transformer and the laptop don't seem to have any issues if taken out of wifi range and then moved back in.

Hi there's a few forum posts about this. A number of us has had this issue...the One X would not have good WiFi speeds, or would completely stop whereas all other WiFi enabled devices on the same network at the same time would be fine. A reboot of the router seems to fix this for most of us. Doesn't quite make sense why the One X would be affected by a wifi issue but not other devices, but seems to do the trick for most people. Its been 7 days now since I had my One X, and since rebooting the router, the wifi issues have not returned.
I'm a cisco tech in real life and trust me its not my wireless setup... proof is that all other droids work fine (my old nexus, atrix my flatmate's galaxy nexus etc.) unless there is some super esoteric setting that the HTC one requires
having said that I have rebooted my WAP a couple of times (in addition to tweaking my router a bit re: IOS firewall, some tcp-mss tweaks I was using etc.) and it does seem better. Still at a loss to understand why no other device has any issues except for this
I'm seeing wifi drop and reconnect all the time on my One X.
Signal strength isn't an issue, I'm sat 3m from the AP however their are lots of wifi networks in this building so could be an issue with interference...
I don't have any issues with my laptop or old Desire on this wifi..
I see the same issues at the office but again their are lots of wifi networks at that location too...

Hi there,
I had a problem with my HOX and my German Fritzbox Router...it would connect, but then not letting any data through...and then even disable the whole WiFi signal so that my laptop, ps3 and Samsung Tab did not get a connection anymore...reset of the Fritzbox was necessary....loads of HOX user reported the issue in a German forum, and one suggested to set the WLAN signal from b+g+n 2.4 to only b+g 2.4 and voila....problem has disappeared...price is that connex max at 54 Mbits now...but I can live with that...try it...maybe it solves some people's WiFi issues...until someone or HTC themselves figure out a working solution with a full wireless n support...

I am experiencing the same issues but with the one s, not the WIFI ones the actual network stops all of a sudden and usually within 1 minute comes back.
It happens about once a day.
The only real problem I have is with the WLAN stick which I use on my pc as hotspot. My Phone connects but after a few minutes I have to restart WLAN on phone so it works again. With the router at my parents home (Fritz-Box) I dont have this problem. I use connectify lite on my pc. With the built-in hotspot in windows 7 it just wont work out. Maybe someone else have this kind of issue and knows a solution.
I have the same problem at home and at work.
Disabling WiFi-N on the AP fixes the problem.
At the office we have Netgear WNAP210 and at home I have a Draytec Vigor 2710VDn
Can't quote xda app giving me invalid thread id error, but I have the same exact issue at work, the linksys wag120n router I use as wap, connected to a net gear router, most times when the phone disconnects, and only the hox, it takes down the internet for even those pcs connected directly to the net gear router, strangely I only need to reboot the linksys router to get things working again.... Weird.
I think the hox is doing something, like sending repeated dhcp requests (as in a bug on hox) and taking out the dhcp server. Although of course various routers would behave differently to this. My home network is fine. Not affected ever.

This is pretty strange so I thought I'd check here with people.
I got my new Sprint Note 2 today. When I was at home it connected to my wifi network and worked fine. When I got to work I connected it to our wifi network and the internet won't work. If I turn off wifi internet comes back.
Here's the kicker, I have my old iPhone right next to it connected to the work wifi network and it is connected fine to the internet. This is definitely going through wifi as I no longer have a data plan on that phone.
I checked with our IT admin who said that there is no need to "accept" a device on our wifi network. He also rebooted the network for good measure. After both phones lost the network (from the reboot) and reconnected the same thing happened. No internet from my Note but internet works fine on the iPhone. Restarting my Note doesn't fix the problem.
Any ideas? Thanks.

My network admin created a second wifi network to connect to (I guess our router supported it) and when I connected to the new one I got internet.
If it helps others try and solve the issue he tried pinging the IP address that my phone was using and said that he could only send information but not get anything back.

Try changing your wifi channel config in the router.
Hi, I've got the International version N7100 and experiencing weird wifi problem. I have tried to reset my wifi router and use static IP but it doesn't solve the problem. Btw, the problem is whenever I connect my Note 2 to wifi it would lose connection after a while then messes my router and connection of my PC to router as well. Never had this issue until I brought the Note 2 home a week ago. I had to restart my router and turn off my wifi on Note 2 for everything else to work. My iPad, iPhone and PC are all doing fine when Note 2's wifi is off.
I used to have terrible problems with my Virgin Superhub which all went away when I changed the security settings to WEP hexidecimal from WPA2-PSK (AES). Laptops and phones would have intermittent connections all the time which a reboot or channel change would sort out but only temporarily. Give it a whirl.

I've been experiencing the same problem. It's especially annoying when I try to download big size apps on Google Play ( > 1 gb) because it will stop any moment and i will have to re-download it over and over again. It never happens when I connect to school wifi but it just happens when I connect to my wifi at home. Weird. Nothing is wrong with my wifi at all because my other computer is always connected 24/7 without any problem.
I have a similar problem on Omega Ron v5.0 with latest Andrei kernel. The phone gets stuck sometimes in getting IP address part or have disconnects. It's annoying.

Afraid not.
I did that after other efforts failed but still have to go through same issue every now and then. This is not a permanent problem but something that occurs at least once a day for me.
Also having Wifi issues with GN2 from Sprint
I got the GN2 on it's release date (this past Thursday) through Sprint. Got it home got set up, connected...everything worked beautifully.
After a couple of hours, downloading apps etc. I noticed it had stalled. Turned off WiFI and used the network to finish. Turned back on WiFi and Voila, action again, but a few hours later it stalled.
I first made sure all of my settings were in agreement. No sleep mode or anything like that was enabled. No power saver either.
Couple hours goes by, WiFi connectivity stalls (even though it shows a full signal) I contacted TWC and made sure it wasn't the modem/router. I changed the wifi channel, tinked with the bandwidth... everything worked...an hour later it stalled. Called Sprint they said I had a dud, took it back, exchanged it, got the new one... SAME ISSUES. YEsterday I connected to my Church network HOPING it was an issue at home, but not so. After an hour on the network it stalled.
Contacted Samsung today and they have had no complaints according to them so i said I'm happy to be the first... If anyone finds a fix please let me know.
PD

Do you have any solution yet? I have the same issues with 2 different networks. I already contacted Samsung, but they only say I should do a reset of my device and read the setup instuctions for wifi. I'm still in contact with Samsung and hardly try to get a solution.
Stay tuned, I'll post any news I can get.

I'd prefer it to work with the stronger encryption of WPA2 rather than WEP.
OP: it will be great if you could add a poll to the thread as that way we can see whats the percentage of users are experiencing this issue,

Same issue here. Connect wifi and I'm able to hold connection for as little as minutes at times. Turn back on 4G and I'm fine. If I re enable wifi straight after it works intermittently. This is true of both my home and office wifi. So I'm lead to believe it's the phone.
Hi,
Almost the same thing here. everytime I go out of my home and comeback the wifi network seems to work but no internet access. I have to stop and restart wifi then it works.
very strange issue. ok I have a work around but I'm going to open a ticket to Samsung.
Same issue - connects for about 30 seconds
I've tried on different routers. Other devices (iphone, ipad, S3, etc.) all work fine. Sees the wifi network. connects, then disconnects and TURNS OFF WIFI. I can't figure out how to go to service mode to see if this is a timer issue. I've tried on both G and N networks. using a verizon fios, actionteck router (and netgear). Also, will not remember the password credentials. tried router reboot and fidling, etc. Driving me nuts. any suggestions ???
On my home Wi-Fi network I have a strange problem that only seems to affect Google apps. Basically they have no connectivity. Hangouts can't send or receive, YouTube can't load videos, Google+ cannot load data. I can send texts, browse the web fine though. Sometimes but not always the play store will not work either. Other app that connect to the internet work fine such as chrome. If I turn off Wi-Fi and use 3G, it works. The only way I can get it working is to reboot the phone. I had switched to cyanogen mod 10.1 and never encountered this problem on my S3 so it's not some kind of hardware problem. At first i thought it was a problem with the Wi-Fi but i don't have any problems with my nexus 7 or iPad on the same network or even at the same time my S3 doesn't work.
Has anyone else seen this before or have any ideas?
Hey guys,
So all of a sudden, my wifi is searching and not connecting in a campus setting. My Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 is still connected to the same wifi my Note 4 was. I have tried rebooting, removing battery, shutting off and on data and wifi, and airplane mode. Nothing reconnects it. Also tried forgetting all networks since there are 5 when searching for networks it finds and reconnecting to one, still no dice. It's been 4 hours, still can't reconnect. Any ideas?

Have you tried to forget the network and then ADD it with + Add Wi-Fi network? I actually had an issue playing with a Galaxy note 10.1 2012 edition, I turned my hotspot (sprint note 4) on and named it the same as our current network (was showing how open networks aren't always the network they say and anybody can create a Starbucks-Guest network.... I used starbucks-guest because I didn't want to put my schools on here). The tablet didn't see the network even after reboots, but when I added the network manually it connected right away. Also was this connecting to the same access points or different ones on the other side of campus?
Yep tried forgetting, re-adding the wifi spot and nothing.
I've been having wifi connection issues since day one of getting this phone.
Not sure if I have the same problem.
But at least once a day, it seems the phone can no longer make a connection to my wifi.
The only solution is to either just power off the phone and restart or do what Sprint asked me to do.
Sprint said to try and reset the network connection information by dialing ##72786#
The phone will power off and then restart do some background stuff and then power off again and restart.
Once that is done, all is fine.
I've never had this happen on any other of my Android devices. I even use a static IP with my phone setup.
And yes, I have tried just using the default of DHCP.
I had thought it was my router (Asus RT-AC68U) which transmits both 2.4ghz and 5ghz. I have both setup and I try to use 5ghz the most.
I did upgrade the router software because I was one version behind, but that did not fix anything.
Also, I had a Sprint femocell in my house (provided for free from Sprint) because I had bad signal issues years ago.. But because this phone uses LTE and now it seems the phone comes with built-in WiFi Calling. (Means instead of using the cellular network it will use my network and ISP to make Sprint calls, all voice and text messages come through normally, it's basically a built-in femocell).
I returned that, whoops still in the box, need to get that mailed out fast.
I'm not sure how widespread this issue is, but I suspect it's bigger that just the two of us here. And if I'm in the wrong thread, please let m know.
Thanks
Rob
