Ever since I flashed leaked eb01 and ec10 voodoo kernel, I have been unable to use wifi on campus. It works just fine at home but i suppose i'm having trouble connecting to enterprise wifi (802.1). what can i do to solve this issue? what controls wifi? is it the radio, kernel or rom? i even installed wifi advance from the market but have been unsuccessful in finding the right settings. Anyway, when i'm on campus it connects to wifi, then when i open the browser it asks for my id and password and i type it in and hit enter, but instead of "you have logged in succesfully"-page, i get a blank page and have no access to the internet. I need some advice.

Until yesterday I have been successful in connecting to various WiFi hot spots, now I have to use a static IP to connect to the very same two WiFi hot spots. Using dynamic addressing my tablet cycles "authenticating, obtaining IP address etc." and never successfully connects. When I use static IP, the connection is instanteneous. I have tried recycled power to one of the WiFi hotspots without any change. Also, I have been successful in connecting another device to the WiFi router successfully suggesting the problem is with my tablet. The table otherwise works fine.
Has anyone else encountered this?
Lost DHCP over WiFi
I just found the following (timely) posting forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/18708-dhcp-timeout-over-wifi and will investigate whether that would be cause of my recent problem since I had just downloaded another version of busybox.
I have the same issue but from makin my laptop the hotspot n connecting tab to that, but I use Connectify for the hotspot and itworks with connecting, just not all the time.
When it doesn't, have to forget the connection then re-connect, usually fixes it. I don't think its ur tablet though, ive experienced this with every rom I've tried(tnt stock, tntlite 4.25, vegan froyo and ginger experimental)
Hope this helps
No it does not help since your problem does not resemble mine.
Problem solved after updating busybox to working version. Apparently a version of busybox lacked certain programs needed by the DHCP client.
More info on updating busybox please?

I just installed JT's CM7 TEST 3 ROM. Now I can't connect to WPA/2 access points. Any ideas?
What kind of problem are you seeing?
Do you not see any WAP's? Or can you see them and not connect to them?
Did you enter them manually after wiping/flashing or did you use TiBu to add them in? Can you connect to your Mobile Data service fine still?
I'm on the same build CM7 and I have no issues connecting with my network at home, which is WPA2.
It ended up being the AP that was the problem. I'd had this issue on my Nook Color running CM though, so I wasn't sure if it was a problem with the device or the AP. I've flashed several ROMs in the past, and this was my first post so I wasn't rushing to post the first problem I had...I was legitimately stuck, just turned out it wasn't stuck with Android, rather with Linksys Thanks guys!
OK, went from CM7 to Unnamed 1.04 because I was told the wireless access point actually worked. I do a wipe of data/sysyem/sdcard and install it. No problems so far. System reboots, and, I can see my wifi connection (which is sitting right beside me). I connect to it, and it gives me an IP address. Then I see Scanning... in the wifi section. And it scans then stops then starts to scan again. I get little to no internet access... Help?

This won't be much help to you, but I flashed unnamed 1.04 earlier today and got a good wifi connections instantly. All I can say is go through your wifi trouble shooting steps for your phone and router.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App
I updated from froyo geewiz kernel and powerwashed rom to EH03. Now my wifi just scans, says connecting, then disconnected.
First I tried Geewiz 2.4.2 EH03. When the Wifi problem followed I odined Nitsuj17's stock EH03. When again the wifi wouldn't work I Odined CWM and Nitsuj17's Superclean3 Milestone1 EH03. Still the Wifi just scans, says connecting, then disconnected. I could be right next to the router with full strength. The WEP password seems to be accepted and tries to connect but then just says disconnected.
Anyone have any Ideas?
Have you first tried to connect to a wifi base station that is completely open, with no password? Just to see if your wifi is completely shot?
Connected to neighbor's open wifi. Won't connect to mine no matter how many times I put in password.
I'm probably giving you advice you already know, but have you tried changing the WPA encryption scheme, changing the password, etc..... The OG droid had various issues with particular wifi settings, but the fascinate never has. but you never know...
What about mac filter, does your router have one and if so is it running? Your problem sounds exactly like what people complain to me about when they can't connect to my router but have entered password - I have to manually add them. Its a great feature for a little extra security.
Thanks everyone. After twice flashing stock Verizon eh03, bricking my phone, and 3 different cool roms all failing to connect to my wep secured router, the easiest (and most idiotic for my missing this) solution worked. I reset the router with the little red reset button on back of the verizon fios router and instantly my stock eho3 connected using the password i had imputed before and remembered. Recent power outages is all I can think of for why this happened.
Then flashed CWM Blue from TSM Resurrection 2.0 post, then flashed tsm Resurrection 2.0 and all is well. Love the new rom, Highly praised by me.
Thanks everyone. This community's' willingness to take time out and help a total stranger amazes me every time. You tech guys are great.
Hi All
Having a spot of bother tonight
Randomly my SG2 could not access the internet through my router.
It sees my router, no problem there. I can switch off wifi and get online with my data but not through wifi.
I had been using it all day but it just randomly stopped tonight and my router is working perfectly as my laptop and other phone is connected.
I have restored 3 different Roms which were up to two weeks old in some cases. Also flashed 3 kernels and 3-4 modems
On ICS Stock rooted LP7 with CF root LP7 kernel
Not sure what else to try so any help would be appreciated
I have searched and tried everything I can so if you can help, thank you.
Search in original android development in checkrom thread, 2 days ago somebody put a zip file to fix wi fi issue, like yours. It's called Wi Fi fix. Search and you'll find

Thanks Gregory
I tried it, but unfortunately it didnt work for me but I appreciate your help.
after flashing it, I couldnt even turn on wifi at the toggles or menu so I am doing a restore now and hopefully it will work.
I am not sure if doing a complete restore to stock firmware again will work.
Really dont know how this wifi issue so randomly appeared
Was your phone getting a DHCP address from the router or not ? on ICS, that happens when you get the popup message "Connected to XXXX".

Hi Vaxxi
If I dont understand what you are asking correctly, sorry.
the phone is receiving an I.P., gateway, dns, etc. each time I log on.
I can see that wifi connectivity is active but nothing is working despite clearing caches, doing restores, etc.
the problem started randomly
Yes, I was asking if it gets an IP through DHCP. Sometimes it gets stuck and you have to remove a file manually in order to refresh the IP address, but your problem seems to be somewhere else. Can you ping your phone from the router after it gets an IP address ?

thanks for your help Vaxxi
I cant get near my router tonight unfortunately
I can 'see' it through 'Fing' app but if I try to use speedtest.net app to see if I have data, I get nothing.
I think I will try another stock flash again with LP7 stock, but I doubt it will work.

Note: Fixed.
I did all the above to no avail.
Ended up reflashing the router firmware, not sure if this directly helped but upon reboot, my phone connected as usual but now had internet access again.
Strange as prior to flashing the firmware everything except my phone could avail of net access.
Thanks to each of you that helped.
im having the exact same issue. I have reflashed router firmware also but still nothing. Wifi symbol is there but not blue (cm9) data works perfect. Im also starting to wonder if its my router.
I have tried wiping all settings etc. Um currently downloading latest nightly so hopefully that does the trick!!
