Now that I have updated to 2.1 on the mini pro, I am having big problems with wifi. When I had 1.6 it was able to connect to my network every time without problem. Now it recognises the network but has trouble connecting. I have tried rebooting my router a number of times and changing the channel but nothing seems to work. There is nothing wrong with my network as I have computers using it without a problem, Sometimes the phone will connect to the network, but most of the time I am unable to connect.
Does anyone have any ideas how I can solve this problem?
Basically, the problem is I can't connect to my home WiFi initially when powering up my Gtablet. It can see my network but when I try to connect it just says Obtaining IP address and eventually doesn't work. If I restart my router I can connect no problem, but if I turn off or restart my Gtablet It will not connect.
So basically I have to restart my router if I want to connect to my Gtablet.
I'm running CWM 8 and Vegan Gingerbread 7.0 harmony
My router is netgear, I can check the model if it's necessary.
Everything works fine except this internet problem.
Dear All ,
I have been suddenly encountering wifi connection issues with my S3.
It refuses to connect to any router unless i am very near to it.
There is no problem with reception as the phone can detect the wifi and has 3-4 bars
If i try connecting while far away from the router to a detected network, it just gets stuck on "connecting.."
If i connect while near the router and then walk away, remains connected but I have no internet access..
Things I have tried:
1-cycling wifi on/off , reboot phone, reboot gateway
2-turning off wifi power saver from service mode *#0011#
3-flashing a different non stock rom after doing a wipe/factory reset.
4-searched extensively for three days with no avail
If any encountered such a problem before and was able to solve it, your help is highly appreciated.

I haven't encountered this specific problem before, but I have had other problems with my S3 and WiFi. It turned out the problem was my router, which was in 5ghz mode. If you have a 5ghz router, try to switch it to 2.4ghz.
Something else you can try is to change your modem and/or kernel. Those 2 both have something to do with WiFi, so maybe it'll work.
Again, I haven't encountered your specific problem myself, these are just some suggestions.

I'm having the same problem for about 2 months now, it's driving me crazy, if anyone knows how to fix this please let us know! Thank you in advance.
AS the guy above you suggested try changing your modem and if that fails try a new kernel which should sort out the problems you are having. Or as he also suggested try your router and make sure it isnt in 5ghz mode only.
Try logging into your router's configuration and changing the wireless network channel from auto to a manual setting (e.g. 9 or 3). The only wifi problems I ever had with my S3 were (misconfigured) access points and routers.
Hi guys, I'm having some problems with the wifi, when connecting on my router wifi it disconnects frequently, if I go into the wlan page it does like switching off and on repeatedly for a couple of times, then some other times it connects but says disabled line. If I connect it to my phone hotspot it doesn't give any problem. I tried to reset my router, it fixes the problem for a while but sooner or later it starts again. Can you please help me out? Thank you!
Hi guys i just received the edge 40 pro. when i try to connect it to my router it keeps connecting and disconnecting without stopping. I tried shared wifi from my other phone and it worked perfectly. all my other devices connect perfectly with my router so does anyone of you have this issue. i tried rebooting last update tried reseting network setting and even the phone but still nothing
Will keep it if anyone face same: the problem will accure if disable ipv6 on your router setting for local network enable that and it will work ass expected
