LG G4 wont connect to TPLink RE210 range extender - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
as titled , my LG G4 won't connect to my TPLink wifi extender (RE210) while other devices do. It gets stuck in obtaining IP address and gives up...
I have the latest upgrade installed. It used to work before.
Have tried everything, rebooting router, upgrading firmware of extender, deleting wifi paswords on G4, etc.. and no go.
It wont allow me to assign a static IP address either.
Have also tired using Lollipop DHCP client in Developper Options.
I am wondering if it has to do with the latest firmware (V20g)
IT DOES CONNECT HOWEVER DIRECTLY TO THE WIFI ROUTER...
Any ideas? Thanks

Defy & Ad-Hoc wifi network

I cant connect to ad-hoc wifi network, it is well known software android problem at all devices but i tried like this links:
exop.pro/blog/2010/08/15/ad-hoc-support-for-android
szym.net/2010/12/adhoc-wifi-in-android/
when i replace wpa_supplicant, wifi seems doesnt work, i cant find any wifi network (ap or ad-hoc)
please help
I tried creating ad hoc wifi network in my laptop for my defy but failed. The phone did not detect the network. Then I installed connectify instead and it works faultlessly.
Is there any adhoc patch for defy?
*wrong post deleted*
I can connect defy with my laptop without installing any other software. But I'm not sure if it is a ad-hoc network. My laptop wifi driver provide a special ap mode and it can be used to share network.

Same here. I tried all the patches of wpa_supplicant given in this thread as well: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=755254 but the wifi just can't search for any network and it turns off itself.
Another member "webvan" tried the above steps on his Milestone and failed(from the above thread).
Seems like Moto has a different hardware config.
FYI, I'm running 2.2.2 custom rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1037076)
What a tragedy.
It seems there's no such patch for Defy.
for me it worked with 3.4.2_177-005_NORDIC rom which i used for a very long time.
the problem is, you must manually connect to an ad-hoc network.
if you don't want to do that each time, you can install cyanogenmod by quarx and it will automatically connect to your saved ad-hoc network
Maybe you should try update to 2.2/2.3 based rom.
Fyi, i'm now at MIUI rom & got no problems with ad-hoc wifi network.
Dont forget to activate Internet Connection Sharing (for windows user), just to assure your device got IP Address automatically.
P.S Sorry for my bad english

[Q] wifi adhoc "obtaining ip address"

Hi friends
Searched the forum and tried the proposed solutions but nothing helped.
I'm trying connect to addhoc wifi on my desire HD os=2.2
I replaced the wpa_supplicant file with one of those that exists on the forum and
indeed now i see adhoc networks but the connection is not stable - it goes like connecting -> obtaining ip address -> connected -> disconnected
and so on in loop ... i verified that the ip is static and i even put gateway+mask+dns.
when trying to ping the target it even sometimes succeeds!
Tried with several different adhoc targets and tried both wpa_supplicant for ver 0.5 & ver 0.6
Please does someone can help ?
thanks

My phone is samsung galaxy GT - I 5503. I do too and obtainging IP address...
This question not yet solved
I have the same issue with my sgs2. I get no connection ever, only a constant "Obtaining IP address.."
I'd suggest resetting your router and forgetting the network and trying to reconnect. Also a static IP might work but as for finding any of your provider's info, that's up to you. Unfortunately, XDA doesn't even recognize my network (Sasktel) so I am having a very tough time with this!
most probably firewall problem , i had same problem with hotspot doing exactly as you discribe.
it can also happen by some custom Roms and don't happen with others ( firewall disabled ) .
Also lot of sense Roms have an issue with that exact wifi problem , not like AOSP Roms ,i don't know why
I only had this problem with a network called; 'eduroam', my schools' network. I solved it by recotting & changing the network security TLS/TTLS/EAP or somethinf like that.

[Q] err_proxy_connection_failed!

Error code: ERR_PROXY_CONNECTION_FAILED
Running Nexus 7 2013 (2nd Gen) WiFi, kitkat, unlocked,
Wifi shows strong connection, detailed error message,
Unable to connect to the proxy server, A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary between your device and other servers.
Your system is configured to use a proxy, but Google Chrome cannot connect to it. All my other wifi devices, phones and laptop connect OK.
If you use a proxy server...
Check your proxy settings or contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is working. (end of error mssg)
This is beyond me, I was using wugfresh to root, got it unlocked but never got it to root, while doing so, there are two kitkat os options, and when I finally tried the second one, this happened. All else works fine, just this wifi connection error, I reset wugfresh to the first kitkat os version and tried rooting again but no change in proxy error. Not blaming wugfresh, just explaining what I was doing. Googled for a solution but they all refer to Chrome on a PC, I cannot find proxy setting info on the Nexus 7 2013 wifi.
I've tried all the obvious, shut off and restart, plus, wiped and factory restore to original.

MAC Address change, can't connect to network.

Hey XDA!
just a quick question. Has anybody been able to connect to a wifi network after changing your MAC address? I've tried it on Oxygen, Hydrogen, CM13 and it's always the same, as soon as I change the MAC if I try to connect to a network it will stay at "obtaining ip address" and never connect unless I change back to my original MAC. Any help or input would be appreciated, thanks.
