It would be *really* helpful if you can give us which version, kernel and baseband your on.
Also, it might be your router. Im on 2.3.3 and can't connect to my router with tomato os.

Im on 2.3.3, base band 2.1.71, kernel 2.6.29-00054-g5f01537 [email protected]#1
build is 3.0.1.G.0.75
Using Beetel 450TC1 router..
my phone is connecting to other WiFi networks, but not with my current connection although I used the same router with other internet service provider, thr was no issue...

For me ..i have 2.3 with base-band 2.1.71
and i can't connect to WPA/WPA2 WiFi host
Actually this case was from the beginning of 2.1 Official update..
I'm just hoping to have ROM's like 2.2

I have the same problem. It connects, but with limited connectivity. Maybe it's an issue with WPA 2 / PSK?
The phone wifi worked well when I had WEP security. I've tried blade wifi fix and wifi fixer from market, trio no avail.
Hope someone could help

@ nikhil
dude thats a beetel router it wont work wid xperia ..i have a d-link router it works fine coz it doesnt have any regulations with it !!! hope ur using BSNL Connection and u got the router thru them is it ???

@ shingonati
i think try making ur router an open connection just for checking whether internet works..some times if u try some WEP/WPA type security the conversion of code differs like it uses Hexcode and Ascii values to evaluate the Pass key so the conversion might differ ...
hope u get a bit
thank me if it helped u !!

[Q] USB Tether times out while idling - when using torrents or otherwise

Hi,
I have got a new MTNL 3G connection (I am from India), and am trying to use the USB Tether option to browse and download from the internet. However, when I leave my phone / computer to idle, the connection drops. I was earlier on Froyo (2.2) and am now on CM 7 version 6.5.5.
Does anyone have the same problem? Is there a solution?
I have tried keeping the screen awake, screen timeout options etc. Have tried PDAnet and Auto USB Tether too.
Any help will be appreciated
Thanks

I am using USB tether and not wifi. Dial up will not give me 3G speeds, and I am on cyanogen CM7, so don't know if dial up is possible. Net seems to be working fine right now. Maybe it's an area specific problem. But would want to know if anyone has figured out a solution.
Thanks

I had this issue on Airtel 3G and CM7. It is fully fixed in the GB roms based on stock.
Yes dialup will give u 3g speed bt dnt knw it works wid cm7 or not bt i guess it should just check dat if ur system is detecting ur phones modem den it will surely works.

[Q]Wifi Problem?

Could be a million things going wrong...password, diff key algorithm, MAC address filtering (if he has it enabled on the router).
You need to do more troubleshooting before asking the question...give the forum a starting point.
Check to see if your phone supports the type of the router.
For example, if your router is N and you phone only supports g/b, it won't work.
Check if the router supports as many devices are connected
is it normal that my ip address in wifi settings is unavailable ??

I guess it is since you haven't connected to a network that would have assigned you an IP address.

It would help to have more information about the way the router is set up, etc. Can other phones connect to it? Are you getting any error messages?
I bought a used WRT54GS a few weeks ago and couldn't get my phone connected over WiFi until I updated the firmware. You may want to look into that. It said it was connecting and then said disconnected. It never said it was connected though.
Once I got the new firmware installed then I was able to connect, encrypt the connection, etc.

~ we already updated the firmware but still got the problem .. we've done all troubleshooting we can do .. i even change my rom and kernel but nothing happens .. other device can connect to his router, mine was the only one that can't connect ...
btw i can connect to other wifi .. i guess the problem is in the router ?
Well, at least you know it's not your phone ...

Sorry to hear that.
If other devices can connect to it and yours can't, even with different ROMs and kernels, then it looks like this particular router just doesn't like your phone/setup for some reason. Especially since you can connect to other WiFi units.
Very frustrating.
If the router is set up to allow enough connections and isn't filtering out your phone's ==> WiFi <== MAC address then I don't know what else can be wrong.
Hope you can find a workaround, but I can't think of anything else at the moment.

Problems with wifi on ICS official and ROM Cook (4.0.3 and 4.0.4)

Hi everyone! I am new to this forum. I have something to ask.
Currently I am having an Xperia Ray. Rooted. Boot loader unlocked. Running Ray Onium v7 GB with Aire Kernel v7. Everything runs perfectly without a glitch.
However when I update to ICS, both stock ROM or Cook ROM (Ray Onium v6 ICS, JJ ROM 2.5 and team Kang ROM), I find that my wifi is not useable.
I'm sitting about 1m away from the router, the signal is excellent but I can't browse the internet or go to the market.
I have tried both with 4.0.3 and 4.0.4. However when I connect to an open network, everything is fine. I'm using WPA2 encryption for my Linksys 54g router.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

I've tried with SEUS, no luck.
The point here is that it gets connected very fast, however there is no internet. On GB everything is perfect.
I have the same issue, everything perfectly on GB.

I've been having similar problems with my wifi since updating to ICS. My problems are a little different though. WPA2 network here, the phone can see the network fine and it connects quickly, I can browse and stuff just fine, but every so often the network just /disconnects/. Usually it'll reconnect a few seconds later, but sometimes I have to open the wifi settings screen before it'll reconnect, and sometimes it doesn't reconnect at all. When it doesn't reconnect at all, the settings screen says my network is either out of range (it picks it up the moment I hit Scan) or had an "authentication problem", and I have to manually connect to the network.
Kinda weird and very frustrating, because sometimes I'm connected for hours without a problem, and sometimes I'm getting disconnected every few minutes.
When SE released their alpha and beta ICS roms, the wifi either didn't see my home network, or it saw my home network but couldn't connect, instead just infinitely cycling through "Connecting, Disconnected, Not In Range, Connecting"
Same problem happens regardless of what kernel or ROM I use, it happens in CM9, AOKP and every other ICS ROM I've tried. :/
A similar problem it seems...
When I want to download an app via Google Play simply it doesn't start. I touch back button and try to download it again and voila! The same fast wireless..
But it simply does not start at first try. Not only Google Play downloads but also all other internet using applications do that strange behaviour.

I have two Rays at home... one on GB and one on ICS.... the ICS one has the same problems, I think switching your wifi router to WEP seems to help and so is changing to B from N.. but then you lose higher speeds and security... but that does seem to help. On the other hand the GB ray has no problems whatsoever....
Hope this helps someone figure out a solution

Your welcome. I just also flashed official Nordic 4.0.4 from here... And my router has something called " protected mode", that is says helps for that- if WiFi signals are too many around. Try installing WiFi analytics from google play... It's free-
use a free WiFi channel.
Turn on such protected mode if you can
I also activated something called "intellistream" that prioritizes streaming in WiFi.
So far, it's going well. This way I kept the 801n and WPA security.
Before this, I was sitting 7-8 steps away from the router and kept dropping connections.
Hope it helps.... No expert here.... Joined the forum for the same reason...
tomorrow after work ill test as much scenarios as possible. it cant be router related since i have the same issue with 7 different routers. 0 problems with GB, always the same issue on ICS.
connected solid and sound, no dropping in signal, but no internet flow whatsoever.. this is the only thing that keeps me on GB -.-
Any progress?
Yeah same problem with me.
There's something wrong with ICS Rom, that needs to be fixed
Replace file
Unzip and copy this file in /system/bin (replace with original). This should fix the wifi connection. You will need root for this.
So far, so good

[Q] Ad-Hoc networks

Hey guys... is there a way to enable ad-hoc networks on Xperia U? I know that it's possible on other devices by editing the wpa_supplicant file (located at /system/bin) but i don't understand anything in there... Just some weird signs and words...
Would be nice if someone would help me
regards
Ad-hoc network is not supported in Android...
But there is an alternative way. You can use a software called Connectify to turn your PC or Laptop into a wifi access point like a router.. Then the network will b supported in Android...

my xperia u can see AD-Hoc networks.
But it can't connect to them. It shows full signal, but when i connect it gets to minimum and refuses to connect, it stops at assigning ip.
AW: [Q] Ad-Hoc networks
I googled a bit and found a (in my opinion difficult but good) way to make an access point on linux but i'm still interested in this ad-hoc stuff because it's much easier
