[Problem] Wifi acting weird - HTC One X

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?

have u get any success by doing this... but i think i m not getting the appropriate configuration settings....
You have to change your router I had the same probs but my wifi worked at a diff router

[NEO] Strange wifi problem. Connects but no internet.

Hello. I have xperia neo for 1 week. It is great phone and great upgrade from my X8 but i see a strange wifi problem. My firmware is latest version - 4.0.A.2.368.
At my home phone connects fine to my wireless network and everything is stable. I do not see any disconnects, reboots or other problems. My router is linksys wrt320N and i connect at wireless N speed - 72Mbps.
When i try to connect to the wireless N network at my office the phone connects fine but i do not have internet access. I have IP assigned by the router, network is shown as connected but i do not have connectivity. I tried with 3 different browsers and with the market and nothing connects. At the same time i can connect with my laptop to the same network and i have internet. My colleagues with other phones also connect and have internet.
I tried setting static IP address on the phone but this did not help. I read that if i set static IP in router's settings assigned to the mac address of the phone this will help. Unfortunately i can not test this because i do not have access to router's settings. Also at my home i did not make such settings and everything is working fine.
Previously i have seen this problem with my X8 and the same work wifi network but it was not always present. It was present with some custom firmwares and not with others.
If you have any ideas or have seen this problem please help.
Having the same device from Globul I never had such problems for the 2 weeks I'm using it. I had some disconnects but i put the blame on my router.
if you can try changing the wifi channels
I think I've found the issue (by facing by myself)
The version neo is shippe (2.3.2) has a serious bug on AES encription.
Actually only the upgrade to 2.3.3 (no clue about upcoming 2.3.4) can fix the WPA/AES issue.
So the actual solutions are:
or change your wifi securty to WEP, updathe the phone via OTA
or use the Windows Software and update to 2.3.3.
Please note that if you use the Control Power widget it has been removed in 2.3.3
This was my problem when I had just bought my Arc.My phone couldn't surf the internet with my personal wifi network although I tried to use many browsers and also Android market. Then I reset and reinstalled my router, everything works well ^^
Ask your office IT staff to do a simple power cycle on the router and try connecting again. That may solve the problem.

[Q] unable to connect to any wifi network from the wireless list

my phone can see any wireless network just fine and even can see any network encryption changes but for unkown reason the connect button feels like the cancel button
when i try to connect to any encrypted network it ask me for the password then nothing happens
i tried installing different firmwares and they all do the same thing
now what?!
oh...i tried wifi fix.zip and it missed up the network enable/disable key so i restored my phone back to my 2 days old backup which also suffer from the same problem
i am on CM9 BETA4
when this problem happend i was using the internet on my phone and all the sudden the net access was down so i checked the router log very fast and the last thing i seen on the mikrotik wifi server log was my phone connecting with too many diff mac address (6 of them) with the same ip
i checked the wifi server if my phone's ip or mac was banned and the answer was no
i have one place left and it is the phone itself can a virus unbind the wifi connect key?
turned out that the phone for some unknow reasons doesn't connect to any wifi network with space in ssid name
changed the ssid from space to under score and everything is working again on CM9 B4

CM10.1 Stable, IP address STUCK. Not releasing and renewing.

I was running totally stock on my Nexus until a few days ago. Decided to go back to CM again now that 10.1 stable is out. No problem at first but since yesterday my IP address is getting STUCK. At home i have the usual 192.168.1.xxx subnet address, but at work I have a 192.168.0.xxx range. All of sudden my phone is now stuck on my home IP address and it is not releasing properly and getting assigned it's proper address at work. The usual DHCP in both places. When I get to to my work network I see the usual messages, authenticating, obtaining IP address shows, then it says CONNECTED just like usual. Except it still has my home IP and thus, no network access when I'm at work. I had no issue prior to installing CM 10.1
Anything I should try? (beyond multiple reboots, and turning wifi on and off, which I've done of course). Any caches I should try clearing?
Update. Even though rebooting and turning wifi on/off didn't fix it, I connected to a different nearby network, then tried reconnecting to my work network. It then DID clear and update the IP to a proper one handed out by DHCP. It's strange. Perhaps it's a DHCP issue. Another guy on my network had the same thing happen with his phone. Anyway...I will keep poking around.
Have a Wifi issue to: can't connect to my Network(s)
To install le CM10.1 Stable, I do a complete factory reset, delete all Datas, ....etc. Installed 10.1 stable with gapps the latest.
Wifi worked fine until i do a reboot from Phone (I do this Reboot to do a backup)
Since this reboot, the wifi don't see anymore the neighbor network. I have 2 SSID: one in 2.4ghz and one in the 5ghz. Both with diferent SSID Names... I didn't touch anythings in my Wifi router settings!!
In 5ghz i see the network, but the connection is flapping between Authentication, retrieve IP, Authentication.....etc .
In 2.4ghz, network is out of range...
No problem with my Crespo, same CM10.1 Stable
Have anybody other the same issue ??

[TIP] Wifi connected but no internet connection!

At some points in your life, one of your Android devices connect to a wifi router, but can't connect to the internet. However, your computer, laptop or iPad will connect to that same wifi and use the internet just fine. I've looked everywhere on the internet for solutions, some of them are:
+ Turn off and on both modem and wifi router
+ Factory reset wifi router
+ Battery pull your phone, wait 30s and put it back
+ Reflash stock or custom ROM
+ Change DHCP IP setting to Static
+ Disable security (WEP, WPA) on wifi router
+ Check DNS server, gateway IP address for correctness
Fortunately, I stumbled upon this old thread last night -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1371794
It helped fix the internet connection temporarily, turning off and on wifi on phone caused the issue to repeat.
In summary, he found out the correct MAC address for gateway was mismatched with the one on his phone. Even though the gateway IP address is correct (example: default gateway IP 192.168.1.1)
Upon further investigations, I found out my Wifi ROUTER has the same IP address with my MODEM (192.168.1.1) This IP conflict causes the phone to recognized the WIFI ROUTER's MAC address as the gateway's MAC address. This problem mostly occurs on Android phone, not computer (I'm no tech savvy so I have no idea why)
Simple fix: Go to wifi router setting page, change the IP address on wifi router to different number (other than default 192.168.1.1), and the problem should be fixed.
Please help spread the words to fellow Android lovers, I'm sure a lot of us have struggled with this problem :laugh:
I'm one guy who is desperately looking for a solution to this.
Unfortunately the solution you gave didn't work.
Hi
i have a problem with wifi. it remains connected but loses internet access randomly. i found this solution:
"In the wifi networks, select the network you want and select ‘Forget network’
Turn off the wifi
kill all the apps with your task manager
Turn on the wifi again
Connect to the network
Check the internet connectivity
If still the problem exist, switch off the phone and redo the above steps"
it solves the problem, but it happens again after some minutes. actually, i also installed an app named "wifi fixer" which does the above process automatically. when the program is active, it turns the wifi off and on every 2-3 minutes. and the phone has internet access when the program tuns the wifi on.
any idea?
Turn off wifi optimization on some android phones help.

2 years after the last reply I am having the same problem. My wife and kids all have internet access on their phones, tablets, desktop and laptops all from the same modem router yet I am unable to use the internet on my Galaxy S2 mobile phone even though my phone says connected to Wi-Fi Network Netgear 06.
The Mac address solution provided isn't applicable to my situation as my Mac address on my mobile is different to my modem router Mac address.
Any other solution?
