[Q] Adhoc Wifi Network - Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I am Steve's 1.9.0 and was facing problems connecting to internet using my laptop internet connection. The adhoc network was not displayed in the wifi networks list. I guess by default the stock wifi stack doesnt list adhoc networks.
I flashed the updated WPA supplicant available here.

Now the adhoc network is listed but when i try to connect it gets stuck on "Obtaining IP Address" and disconnects.
I have DHCP enabled on my laptop and know it is working fine as my HTC Hero is able to connect just fine.
Any ideas why this is not working for me? Is this working for anyone else?
Posting the wpa supplicant zip, just incase some one want to give it a shot and report back with their results.

[Q] Help..my wifi connection doesn't work ><

Hi, i recently installed the megatron rom and i realized that my wifi could connect and get an ip address. But my browser won't direct the web/url. Why is that? Help me please..
You should give more details. Router model, encription, if your phone had the same behaviour on different wi-fi networks.

Connecting to Ad-Hoc Networks with Atrix

Ok so i'm trying to tether my Atrix to my iPhone 4, reason being my Atrix is unlocked working with an International Sim while my iPhone is my doemestic US sim...when trying to connect to adhoc wifi networks on the Atrix having some problems. I can connect to an adhoc network fine and obtain an IP the very first time the network is accessed. However if you disconnect from that same ad-hoc network and try to reconnect the atrix is unable to obtain an IP. So i tried to forget that network and retry with no luck. I'm running on OLYFR_U4_1.5.2, i've tried replacing the wpa_supplicant file with various other versions that enable ad hoc functionality on other phones, and it works in letting me reconnect to that same network however if i try to connect to a new adhoc network that fails and i cannot reconnect to the previous one as well.. the only way i've found to fix this is to replace the wpa_supplicant with the default atrix one and then replace it again with the modded wpa_supplicant from another phone. If anyone could mod the default Atrix one to work with Ad-Hoc that be awesome. There is also a tiwlan.ini that can be edited as well i've heard but i havent messed around with that. Thanks for any help given and sorry if this is posted in the wrong section.

Wifi not working?

I can't seem to connect to wifi. The phone keeps cycling between connecting, Obtaining IP address and Disconnected.
Anyone else having this problem? Any advice?
Are you connecting to a WPA enabled router? I've had issues on my Droid with certain routers (D-Link for one)... If I switch the router to WEP, it will connect fine.
For a phone to not support WPA is pretty lame. I picked up the TB today but I am at work. Hopefully it will connect to my home wifi network, I will update you on my results!
Had a similar problem on one of my TBolts...power cycle resolved it.
I can log onto my WPA network with no issues. Maybe bad password?
Well, I do use WEP and it will not connect. I turned off WEP just to see and it connects fine when I leave the network open.

Mine seems to be working fine, just connected to home network - I don't get a wireless icon up in the notification bar, but it goes green on my toggle.

[Q] Obtaining IP Problem

Hi
I just got my SGS2 today and tested it with a friend. He had wireless and everything was working over there. When I came home, I couldn't connect to my wifi. I always get 'obtaining ip address'...
I've been searching whole night and I haven't been able to solve the problem.
I can connect to my wifi when I enable the dhcp server, but then I can't access the internet anymore.
Network setup:
Modem -> Switch -> Wireless Switch
I get my ip address directly from my provider (Telenet - Belgium). I've no router at home and it works with every device, except for the GS2S.
Someone experience with this? Is there another way then to buy a new router?
Thanks in advance

[Q] Wi-Fi issue connecting to WPA network

My Rezound has issues connecting to my WI-Fi network at work. It's an 802.11g network using WPA/WPA2 encryption. My Rezound seems to be the only device that I can't get to work on it. When I enter the password to the network, it does connect and obtain an IP. However, it then has no internet connectivity. It works fine on my WI-Fi at home though. Any ideas?
Also, I updated the firmware on my router also, and didn't help.
