Same problem!
this is a comoon error on s3.many users are claiming this. i to have this problem. today i was at samsung smart center and it was working just fine there on wifi and data. but when i got back home started giving network error again on wifi. my router is a d link. they where using a lynksys router there. im guessing is either a router compatibility problem or you need to have a very fast and stable internet service on your wifi. samsung itself itz still tryna figure out whats wrong.anyone here has a very fast internet service and or a router difrent from d link and facing network problem?

Hi
Im having a problem.
In my country my internet provider doesnt work soo good and I keep loosing my internet service a couple of times a day. The thing is that when I get home my android gets on my home wifi network, BUT even though the router is working fine sometimes I dont have internet access.
When this happens my android just stays with the Wifi network even if it doesnt have internet service and doesnt switch to mobile data.
I use to have a blackberry and it did the switch from wifi to mobile data jsut fine when ever there wasent internet service on the Wifi network.
Is this ok? is there a way to fix, it. thank you everyone I hope someone can help me.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100

Hi i went from stock ics on my ray to cm9 by followingnexact step by step guide provided by cm9. Used their kernel as well. Have never modded my phone before. Having a small problem with wifi though. After my phone has been asleep for a while, if i wake it up the wifi icon in status bar is no longer blue its a dark grey and i can no longer browse anything or use the internet. Ive tried rebooting. I did the whole wipe cache etc when installing cm9. In wifi settings in advanced ive also left the setting to "leave wifi on when sleep" checked. If i turn off and on the wifi connection the phone ofcourse is able to reconnect again the icon is blue and i can connect. It not jsut a one off thing its been happening since i isntalled the rom.
If i wakek from sleep a few minutes later i have no issue with wifi. Its only when its been sleep for a while do i have this issue.
Any solutions?
I have the exact same problem but for me it's even bigger, whenever i turn on wifi on my modem, i can connect to internet on my phone, but after awhile i lose my connection completely, on my phone and on my pc also, the only way to get it back is to reset my router and wait for like 5-10minutes...

If its also an issue with your. Pc then your issue might be also the router.
My other devices actually work fine in my case its oky this phone that has issues. Macbook iphone ipad nexus s no problems with those.
Same issue here. I can see available networks but unable to connect. There should be no problem with the wifi router as all my other devices work well and I have tried another router. Now I have to flash back to stock firmware.

Your issue seems more severe than mine. Mine actually connects and works, just that when it wakes from long sleep it wont work until i turn off and on wifi.
I get this problem too, but my problem even worse than yours. My wifi lose it's connection after a while, but the icon on status bar shows it's connected, running ping test, browse, even play store can't be accessed. I pinged the router and got unreachable.
And yeah, this problem occurs when I'm using all ICS based rom..
Anybody has any idea if this is a known problem, or if its just us few having thisissue?

I have same problem. I have SE xperia mini with CM9. WiFi worked fine until yesterday. Now phone can't connect to AP (full signal - try connect -> signal drops down), but sharing 3G internet over WiFi works fine. I cleared dalvik cache, but that didn't help.
Hi,
I have a year old factory unlocked S2 which was working fine till this morning. All of a sudden, I see that even though the WiFi shows as connected, there is no internet connection. I restarted it quite a few times but to no avail. The software is up to date and I have not done anything fancy with it ever. No rooting, nothing...
Can anyone please help? My other devices are connecting to the same wifi and working fine...includes my windows laptop, mac, iphone and ipad...

I tried it, in fact removed all the known wi fi networks, then shut down phone then connected back to the wifi... even then, no internet... the small green arrow near the wifi symbol shows that data is being sent, but the orange arrow that signifies that data is being downloaded/received hardly lights up...
chrome does not open the page, foursquare does not connect, even the default accuweather app does not refresh... any idea?
Just a thought, is your Wifi router connected to the internet? Connectivity issues?
If you can afford it, try doing a factory reset. Also try connecting to some other router. If it was working till morning, and the phone didn't fell down/experience damages, I don't get why it stopped working all of a sudden.

Thanks Sikander... at the end, I think I will try a factory reset.. for nothing else is working...the phone has never been dropped :fingers-crossed:
but like I said, all my other devices are also connected to wifi and they are working perfectly so I would not think that it is a problem with the router...
thanks again... but pls let me know if you think that anything else might help
my ROM is Jellybam, 5.1
since yesterday i havnt been able to connect to WIFI or to my mobile network.
for example the wifi, it says that it has connected to my router, but i still can't surf the internet.
same thing with the mobile network, it shows on the top of the screen that im on "H+" or "3g" but i still can't access the internet.
I've never had such a problem..what to do?
thanks.
U tried play store?

check the access point on your phone to see if is pointing to the apn for your provider. To check access point go to menu - settings - more settings - mobile networks - access point names.
On wifi check your router to see if it sees your phone. The router may need a static ip or the router version is out of date and doesn ot support the wifi of your phone.

already done it. my mobile network settings(APN) are fine.
and i even tried to connect to my friend's wifi and still nothing. it connects, but there is no signal and i cant use the internet.
try calling your provider, your account may need to be reset to get rid of the problem with the phone internet.
To check on wifi you may need to try another kernal as there mabe an issue with the wifi files in the kernal.
but how is it possible? i had this ROM for 3 weeks and never had a problem with my internet connection. and i havn't changed my kernel or my modem since i flashed the ROM.
and the internet access and the WIFI problem had started at the same time. so i assumed that there's just 1 problem that causes the wifi and the network problem.
internet and wifi are seperate problems it is a coincident that they both failed at the same time.
Wifi software issues are located in the kernal. Internet issues could also be kernal or firmware related. These issues could strike at any time without warning.
We know it is not a hardware issue as it connects, so it must be a software isuue.

Hey guys,
OK Ive got a strange problem with one of my Galaxy S3's!
It will not connect to some WIFI connections! It will say 'Obtaining IP address' then 'Failed to obtain IP address' and then loops itself doing the same thing over and over...?
I have two S3's and my other rooted device is fine. The one that has the problem is running a standard O2 4.3 rom (Un-rooted)
My rooted phone is also running 4.3.
Anyone experienced a similar problem? I have had this problem with 4 or 5 WIFI connections now, including my home one which is rather annoying! I have tried the obvious and rebooted my router, which hasn't helped!
Any advice welcomed!

I've had issues with the quality of my internet connection being checked, and then the connection being killed due to "slow internet connection", even on strong Wifi networks. Solution turned out to be to uncheck the automatic network switch in the advanced Wifi settings.

How so, when I have an identical phone sat right next to it with the same version of Android and that phone connects perfectly?
The only difference is one phone is rooted, the other is not (Both running 4.3, just different kernal number and build number)
Well wifi is a function of the kernel .
