I have installed Cyanogenmod 7.1.0.1, available at the cyanogenmod repos. Everything seems to be quite functional but i can't get wifi to work. Turning it on will just make the system try and then fail silently, as if i opted to turn the wifi back off.
I also noticed that in the wifi advanced menu, i see "unavailable" in both MAC address and IP address. Is the module being loaded?
I then tried FXP043 release thinking that maybe the wlan module was not available in the CM image. The outcome was the same.
Please advise.
Regards.
SOLVED
To answer myself, and for the record.
After wipping data/reset factory and clearing cache I reinstalled update.zip.
I believe the problem was caused by a wlan config restore from titanium backup.
everything works now.

Hi all,
Hoping someone can help. I flashed my G Tablet with Vegan 5.11 with Pershoot's kernal. When I navigate to settings>about device>status I get the following FC error:
"The applications Settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
I have booted into ClockworkMod and have tried the wipe cache partition, wipe data/foctory reset and fix permissions, all with a reboot after each one and none has fixed the issue I am experiencing. Anyone else have this issue. I am just trying to retrieve my MAC address so I can add it to a wifi router for internet access.
I can probably use a work around and connect to another wifi router with MAC address requirement disabled and look at the logs to see the MAC address, but it would be easier for me to fix this.
Anyhow, any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I ended up setting up mobile hotspot on my android phone and retrieved the MAC address of the tablet from there. Would be nice to know if there is a fix for this anyway or if this is a know bug. I don't see it as a bug on the Vegan rom sticky.
I had the same question too and googled this thread.
However, I played around a little more and think I found your solution.
Settings > Wireless & networks Wi-Fi settings
then press the on-Display menu button (the one with the lines that look like an inverted paragraph - I had to google what this button was called too)
Select advanced and it should be there! at least for me it was.
Hope it's what you are looking for!
Thank you for the work around, but it would still be nice to get this fixed. I am hoping the GB Beta 1 being based off of Cyanogen the issue will go away.
i too have run into this issue.
is this a common thing or should i be worried?
Well known issue since day one... the aforementioned process of browsing to advanced wireless settings is the solution for the MAC addy
Sent from my Droid using XDA App

Hi, can you indicate what ROM you're using?
on b 0.8.4 there is a patch needed for some phones. (just look in second post of the thread.
If you changed your ROM: do a wipe and cache clear (Backup before!)

Me and a few others had the same problem - try rebooting your router.
finally fixed, I wipe all the data and cache, then re-flash the CM7.
you guys can try~~
maybe it should have been enough only to delete and re-establish the WIFI connection. I had the same issue when I added a another WiFI connection. After deleting all my connection points via the CM settings there was no problem anymore.
So, just if it happens again

i have a threat sbout wifi issues on my legend cm7. But im trying to resolve. i didn´t know about that tip on cm settings.
yesterday i connect to a network, todsy i didn´t see again. but i did clean install... but really it isn´t working 100% my wifi.
I like cm7, gps is good now, but wifi is buged.
Edit: where is the option to delete wifi connections?
Settings - Wireless and network - Wi-Fi Settings - Long press on SSID name and select "Forget network"
Then get in range and reconfigure your wi-fi connection.
maybe also changing the range of wifi channels may help (settings/networks/wifi-settings - then menü button - advanced/ domain) of course only with active wifi working.
Today I tried the CM9 ICS ROM from this thread on my galaxy tab 10.1. Before installing it, I did a backup in CWM. I then tried out ICS and reverted back to my old honeycomb after a few hours (basically because of the missing camera and no youtube HD).
Problem is, now all my google apps seem to have no internet connection even though I'm connected (Browser works, Twitter aswell). I'm guessing that all the apps that were in that ICS build have no connection now that I reverted back to the old version. This makes my tablet basically useless and I haven't been able to fix this on my own.
I tried to delete /cache aswell as the dalvik cache in CWM. Deleting all user data didn't help either. Reinstalling the apps is not possible because the market can't connect either (I deleted all market updates and pulled the apk from the internets, still no connection)
I have DroidWall installed and tried to reset the settings there, no luck. Even disabling it completely didn't help.
I'd be grateful for any help concerning this.
You could try flashing a gapps package: http://goo-inside.me/gapps.
Thanks, but I just wiped the whole thing and did a factory reset. That did the trick.
Hi,
Hope someone can help. My Hp TouchPad with webOS 3.0.4 has a problem with Wifi connection. The wireless networks at college is recognised and is connected when I try. My problem is that when I bring up an internet page it gives me an error message that says"No Internet Connection".I have a number of other devices connected to my college wifi and they are all fine.
Hope someone can help.

Take a look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494458
I assume you are running CM9? I flashed the firmware update that can be found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...3&postcount=61) and I haven't any any trouble since.
Different partches available
its been observed if repeated chaches wipes dont work.. then try restarting the touchpad helps. also sometimes "forget"your existing wifi connection and re-enter the password. Also there are plenty of patches released by each of the different versions of touchpad. without knowing your version its hard to focus on the solution. please specify the version you have flashed your tp.
Hope it helps
wipe and reinstall
I had this issue. When connected to 2.4GHz networks for the first time, it works fine untill either the wifi radio is turned off/on again it does not connect. I would have to forget the network. turn off the wifi. turn on wifi. it would then recognize all networks, including 5Ghz, and then I can connect to the 2.4GHz networks again by entering the password. This happens when I reboot my HP Touchpad as well.
One simple fix, surprisingly, is not on the HP Touchpad itself. It is on your home wireless router. I changed my router's broadcast radio channel from 11 to 1. Issue resolved. Try changing your router radio channel to something different from what it is now.
If that does not work, then leave it at the new channel. backup everything and wipe/restore. I enabled the google account backup. after a restore, it downloaded all my apps automagically. My saved games were not saved however, so make a NANDROID if you're OCD about your saved games. My pictures were still on there tho.
download the latest KANG nightly build into a folder such as CMINSTALL when you initially installed CM9. reboot to clockwork mod and do a factory restore. under advance menu, wipe the dalvik cache and all cache. reinstall the KANG nightly build you downloaded and start fresh. the unit should automagically download all your apps. make sure you enable non-market app installations if you have non-mark apps installed. AKA from unkown sources.
So, the weirdest thing happened to me... I installed an app named WiFi Connection Manager from roamingsoft to play around, and I asked this app to blacklist my home wifi.
I then asked to un-blacklist it, but that failed, and ever since I cannot connect to my home wifi anymore: when I insert password it lists my wifi as "saved" but it won't connect.
Things I tried that did not work:
change wifi name
change wifi password
change wifi channel
reset bits and piece all the way down to factory reset the phone, install a different rom* and go back to original rom
* more on that below
Things I tried that did work:
change rom to lineage OS
change rom from android 9 to 8 (both original android one rom from the phone brand) (but going back to the original rom version 9 fails again, even tho I flashed form a newly downloaded file with nothing to do with the version I did somehow corrupt, and before I even logged in to android, so the phone did not even know it was the same user)
change the security of my wireless from wpa2 to something else (wpa/wpa2 for example)
oddly enough if I change wifi settings to have the same wifi name shared between my 2.4ghz and my 5ghz wifi, my phone will connect to the wifi, and it will connect using the 5ghz (the problematic one).

i also have the feeling a corruption to my nfc happened at the same time, but I don't know for sure, in case someone knows of a connection between the two problems let me know, but the nfc never worked on other roms.
When I flash a new image I flash a number of partitions including one named bluetooth, so I can't imagine which partition I am leaving untouched that has the blacklist in it...
Does anyone have an idea how an app -even if it had root privileges- could cause such low level damage, and more importantly how I could fix it?
