sup everybody.
firstly, i am a wireless expert (11+ years experience) so im not a nuubie to Wireless networks.
but i am new to Android and have just recently gotten an S3, so im hoping some body can help me.
i have an 802.11n wireless hop that connects my upstairs network to my downstairs network (internet router is downstairs)
upstairs i have an 802.11b/g access point for the older devices to connect to, this access point is connected to my 802.11n bridge
my laptop connects to the 802.11b/g network fine, and has internet connectivity (no issues)
when i first got the S3 last night, it was connecting fine as well, but since this morning, no matter what i do, the S3 connects to the access point, gets DHCP, i can ping the IP address, but it doesnt have net access, but if i connect to the 802.11n network it gets net access.
so for the life of me i cant figure out why.
so in a nutshell net access works from the laptop, but not the S3, same access point, and yes ive checked the WPA2 passkey, and the device is getting DHCP.
any suggestions.
like how to reset the IP address on the S3
Tried restarting your rooter?

Sounds like the default gateway route is not correctly received or activated. Do you have any computer/laptop with a promiscuous-capable Wifi card around that you might use with Wireshark? It should tell what exactly goes wrong.
Since you claim to be a Wifi expert I guess you won't need much help interpreting the result.

Try shutting off ur router.... Wait for a min or so then turn it bak on nd see what happens. I have an intellinet router which when the current goes off nd then on im able to connect to everythng except all google services (gmail, search, reader, syn, etc.) until i do the above. All my other devices connect fine in the meantime! Must be smthng with android....
- check the ip address.
- from device, ping its default gateway
- from device, ping external ip address that is known to response to ping
if all those works but you can't ping www.yahoo.com, it is resolver issue.
if all those including pinging yahoo works, and you still have no access, then the apps has issue or there is firewall.
2 S3 in a 3 days (Internet Isues)
Well, a seven days ago itake a Galaxy S3 from my carrier: Ancel (Uruguay).
IN the First day all fine,but in the night it can´t connect with 3g. In the other day the Wifi STOPs. TheS3 conect with the rooter but can´t navigate.
I change the rooter, resetthe phone (factory Reset) but the thinks not change.
I comeback to my carrierand Ancel take my old phone and give me a new S3 (1 day old).
For 2 days, it go well, butin the final of the second day, No wireless or 3g connect, the same again.
It´s a |Firmware problem, ahardware damage, what suppose I have to do ???
My computer is normal, myold N97 is fine, It has 3G signal and navigate on Wifi and 2G/3G, but my galaxyS3 no …
I ´m very confused with this situation ... Twophones in a 3 days …
Just joined to give u a suggestion
TRY
call *#0011# (Takes phone into service menu)
press menu key and select wifi
Disable wifi powersaving mode
You may need to repeat this upon phone restarts but it may well sort out your problem

This technique works for me but only like a temporary solution. Restarting the home router also works for me but again is temporary. This issue I think is with most galaxy s3 devices. I own a galaxy tab 10.1 and it's there in it as well. huge pain to check each time, critical notifications are always missed. Have switched to bluetooth internet sharing from my laptop to avoid disruptions as I just can't trust the wireless.

not working for me
None of both have commented on my suggestion to use Wireshark on another computer to see what's actually going on.
It's hard to guess the reason since by crystall ball is broken and it's nearly impossible to get magical artifacts in pristine conditions on ebay...
No Way.
But after reset the configurations, today in 3G mode al is fine.
In wifi it shows Conected in calennetwork, after this it show internet not avaliable via selected wlan ap. It can´t navigate.
In my router page , the received packets always change, for more data and the sent packets never change.
In the avanced configuration what is the Network prefix lenght ? In my XT860 and N97 i always select the channel of the router, but in the galaxy a don´t have this option.
But the strange, is that in the 2 galaxy s3 in the first day work im my router, and then after some hours it´s crash and not navigate...
Very bad Samsung.
I´m thincking in change my S3 for a S2 or Lumia.
I´m disapointed for it, because if i change the Firmware version i lost the warranty and i have bad feeling about this isues... Is a hardware fault or a software bug ???

You only lose warranty if you bring it to a store without original Rom. Just use the normal procedure (TriangleAway, Odin, Factoryreset) to get it back to stock and you're good to go. If your device has issues preventing it from booting (so you cannot re-flash original) they can't check the binary counter either :angel:
THancks for the help.
I will going to look for triangleway & Odin in the forum.
With my Motorola XT860 i made a lot of stuff: CWM, Custom Roms... but i dont´t know nothing about the S3.
Just some days reading here in XDA and a will going to know all that kind os Staff.
Sorry for the BAd English...
I'm having this issue. I think it has to be a firmware issue as I don't think I get it if I use CyanogenMod9 or 10 (but I could be wrong)
It really is very annoying and somewhat disappointing.
Hello Again!
I tested my S3 in others routers, and all the router that working without sharedkey (open network) my S3 can conect and acess the internet.
Test your phone with one and post for us here.
OBS: In my TP link TL-WR642G it can´t conect (with and without Shared key) but in the first day yes, i don´t understand it.
I will going to 3 school who has open Internet for all the childrens and this 3 schools my s3 conect and navigate in the Internet.
Thancks for the support, if anybody change the firmware and the phone come normal again, please comeback here and post for us.
I have this problem too.. since omega. Strange...'

Anyone with this issue, please try the following:
- Take a Nandroid backup of your phone (on the internal SDcard, restoring from external seems to be broken)
- Flash CM9
- Try Wifi
If it works, please report. if it doesn't, restore the Nandroid backup and report =)
Since CM9 is not based on Samsung-software, that should answer the question about it being an issue in the newer Rom once and for all.

Hey I'm new to android, just got a vibrant last week. Decided to unlock it as I travel a lot. The unlock worked, but now I'm having issues with my wifi. I can connect to a wireless network but I cant load pages. The wireless signal is strong and I tried with different routers, but still no luck. Looked through the forum and googled it but couldn't find a solution. If some one could please help with this, it would be much appreciated
try clearing your current wifi settings including remembered connections, passwords, and everything else...then re-scan for networks all over again, that's all I can think of for now
By that you mean just gong into settings->wireless and networks->wifi settings and then just forget the net work, rescan, and rejoin the network? If so, I did that but am still getting the same result. If you can think of anything else or if I didnt do what you suggested correctly please let me know. Thanks

yeah, thats what I meant :/....hmmm...sounds like your connection is working, can you download stuff from the market or is it just the browser? cause I unlocked mine too and wifi works fine
No I cant download anything from the market. I cant do anything that requires an internet connection, but it does show that I am connected to a network.

Have you been able to try another network? My first thought was it was in Ad-Hoc mode but I could be wrong. If nothing else restore to stock firmware and then try a different unlock.
Happened to me too. It would show the wifi icon on the notification bar but wouldn't load pages. I'd go to the settings and it'd say can't turn off wifi or can't turn on wifi. And when it was "on" I'd say connecting to modem then it'd just stop. When I was using the browser on wifi it would load a page even when I had full bars. I had to turn it off then back on to load another page. Is this similar to the problem your having?

I hope this doesn't sound stupid but yesterday I uninstalled Advanced Task Manager and poof my wifi started working again. The phone also seems to suffer from less occasional lag without it installed, but that's another story for another thread. Prior to this I had to manually turn my wifi connection off and on, but even that didn't always work. Since the uninstall I have not my wifi connection once. I am currently using the stock rom, rooted with minor adjustments here and there.
hi guys, i also have this problem.
i will be taking the phone in to the tmobile store on thursday.
it shows that i am connected via wifi; however, anything that requires an internet connection does not load.
very frustrating, since just yesterday i used the samsung kies software to tether a network for my laptop. i was testing the capability of the vibrant to act as a modem, and it worked just fine.
any help would be appreciated!
thank you
Charlie
connected but not connected
I also have this problem.
In my Vibrant shows that i connected, but i can not load pages. Someone
found any solution to this problem?
Hi all,
This is happening to me too. Rebooting seems to get Wifi working correctly again. But the problem comes back eventually.
Maybe a bug in the latest JI6 update?
Wi-fi problem.
Someone found any solution for this problem?
Froyo's update will fix this issue?
Thanks.
i hang on you **** iphone users they just bay for its cool smartphone **** iphone android is the king
My model is YP-G70 , firmware 2.3.5 on original updated stock rom.
My wifi working very well when I used with my others device (HTC Desire, Nook Color and PC) but with my awesome Samsung Player...
Every some minute the player drop the wifi line and after 1/2 second reconnect.
And i loose my download
Incredible.
I turn off Juicedefender, I 've setup the wifi property "Wifi sleep policy" with NEVER, I turn on KeepWifi Service (app) but.. NOTHING.
Do you have some advice?
Help...
I had the same issue when I bought my US model. But I only had the issue with my home wifi and not anywhere else. Can you connect at another location and see if you have the same issue? I ended up just replacing my old Belkin router and haven't had an issue since.

Try installing KeepWifi, see if that works. Otherwise it could be your router configuration, like the kind of encryption you use for your wifi password. Try to reset your router but don't use any password for a little while, if that works, use another encryption method.

Solution
I've changed the "Client Lease Time" in my dhcp server (ddrwrt) from 0 to 99999 minutes.
It's working end I don't know why
I read this solution in an old XDA item of this forum. Thanks!!!
Hi
I have the same problem with my G70. For to have the max signal in the device i need to go beside my router. I have try with other router but the problem is the same.
maybe is only the display animation in the screen? I say that because i check the quality of my signal at it tell me GOOD.
im also having this problem on my I9003.
the wifi sleep policy has a bug.
some say that your Security/password should be WPA or WPA 2, they said this happens on WPA-secured routers, i haven't confirmed it though.
the only temporary solution for this is to disconnect or turn off the wifi in your phone settings and turning it on again, then you can connect again.
Due to the ROM,i think.Because wifi on 2.2.1(mine is YP-G1) functions great
Dose G70 have a ROM of 2.2.1?If so,you can try it yourself if you like
well i found a fix for this bug, just download the latest version of WiFi fixer from the Play Store.
that's the easiest way to fix this wifi sleep bug.
Hello, I am having the same problem, but I suspect my situation is worse. I've even tried the wifi fixer app, but my 5.0 drops wifi and breaks large downloads and games that require constant connection.
Do I have a defective unit? Any advice and help would be much appreciated.
Solution! (for me at least) go into your router settings on ur PC and change the lease time to either Forever or 30 minutes ( I can't remember which one). It worked for me... good luck

I had this wifi problem with 2.3.5 it was really annoying . Even if i was a meter from the router the signal sometimes dropped to 1 line. Samsung fixed this problem with the 2.3.6 update, and now the signal is ok.

Not the best solution, but....
I have the same problem that happens with my SGP 5, my friend's IPAD, and the Actiontec Router that Verizon supplies with their FIOS service.
I've tried every other remedy that I can find with no success.
The only solution that works for me is to assign a static IP address to the devices. It results in a very solid and stable connection in both cases.
Hope this helps someone else !!
Thank you all for the advice, but nothing seems to work, and I have no idea how to force it to upgrade the os from 2.3.5.
I don't know what to do now short of sending it to Samsung for service.

Download from samfirmware (or anywhere else) the XXKPL firmware.If you are 5.0 international, simply flash it with Odin. US users must make a new tar with just the "factoryfs.rfs" in it and flash it with Odin. That will upgrade you to 2.3.6. However, if you do that, I strongly recommend installing one of the custom kernels, so it won't be impossible to root.

Attention!!! I found a fix for getting wrong IP using your router!!!This should help you if internet worked at first day on phone or sometimes works and sometimes not after reconects. This thread i created is about my routers not working with SG3 and other devices. Router fails to assign right IP for my SG3. Example: 192.168.0.100-199(last digit from 100 to 199) should be IP in that range but phone aquires 192.168.1.6 or 192.168.1.8 and it can't get internet acces! I could connect but not surf the internet. To make device get always same IP and most importantly get GOOD IP wich would not be broken and you could surf internet. You just need to reserve IP in router's network settings. This fixed my problem instantly!!!
Thank me if it worked for you!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Everything below is history!!
Pure stock, not rooted SG3 international version.
I have strange wifi problem. We have 2 routers. One is main(dlink) it was working fine for 5 days and sudenly my SG3 can't connect to internet. I saw that my SG3 is aquiring wrong IP 192.168.1.8 instead of IP192.168.0.(range of 99- 199) so it won't get connected to internet, but connection to router is good. Tried 2nd(linksys) not main router and it works, i can connect to internet (aquires right IP 192.168.0.138) something like that in right range from 99 to 199. First tried wifi fixers. Didn't work. Then tried factory reset didn't help too. Then hard reset from recovery with data wipe ( correct me if that isn't hard reset). That helped, but not 100%. Now i can connect. To main (dlink) router with right IP IP192.168.0.(range of 99- 199) and internet works, but tried with 2nd(linksys) and now problem has transfered to that 2nd router. I only can ask you. Why? What socery is this? Maybe custom rom i install from stock would fix this. Or i need to fix my problem without roming first? Strange.

Update: i lol right now. I went with my SG3 to googleplay via (main dlink router) downloaded angry birds seasons to see download speed. Speed was okay, played few mins. Tried to go to store again. Internet was gone. Internet works fine on my pc but on phone throught wifi not. And changed IP from 192.68.0.(last digit range 99 - 199 ) to 192.68.1.8. Now both routers have 192.68.1.8 IP as i connect to them with my SG3. Connection is strong but internet does not work, because of that freaky IP. I don't imagine how to fix this. My only thought is to flash my SG3 to custom ROM, because other devices works fine with these 2 routers.
So i flashed custom rom and it worked for a while. I guess because i did data wipe/factory reset. I thought i have solved the problem. Recently i installed FoxHound Rom wich is absolutely briliant. Then getting started app asked me to find wifi network. I sat near my router and... it again aquired wrong IP --->>> 192.168.1.8 <<<--- INSTEAD of 192.168.0.( from range 99 to 199). I i don't know what to do next! HELP ME PLEASE! :/
Our other device Galaxy Note works fine as ipad works fine too with those 2 routers.. But not SG3. Arrggh..

Update: found this thread http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r22...-wireless-devices-aquire-the-wrong-IP-address.
He says:
"Everything connects to the router but getting internet working is only accomplished by manually changing the settings to those described above."
Maybe that's because my SG3 can act as modem too? Can galaxy note 4.0.4 act as modem or iphone4?
Unfortunately problem back again. Browsed internet for few min and got wrong IP as i came 3rd time to connect to wifi dlin router. Then i tried another router linksys and got instantly bad IP by connecting to it too. What to do now?!? It's definitely something wrong with my SG3. Do i need to reflash to original, reset counter and take it to warranty post?
Or maybe there is else i can do? Help!

why dont you use the [1 to 99] host byte range? I know range doesnt really matter but if your phone wants to connect to the lower part, why not change that? Plus, did you try giving your phone a static IP address? thats the first thing I would do
I tried doing static IP on my phone and I think I did it wrong. Now I have flashed again I didn't connect to my main dlink router firstly after I flashed new rom, instead I connected to 2nd Linksys. Downloaded 300mb game and few more apps from googleplay, installed, restarted, reconnected and it still works. Will report later how it's going.

All those few days i was connected to 2nd linksys router. So it worked flawlessly until today when i tried to connect to main router dlink. First time i connected today it worked fine. Second time i got that EPIC FAIL IP 192.168.1.6 now. What the F***?! I resetted that router like 5 times to zero and reentered ips. All other devices works fine with it. Why not my SG3?!?! And my computer threw strange internet connection error but it wasn't affected by it. Internet works on my computer as it should. Error was about double ip. It said that other computer in the same network had the same ip. But it works fine after that error. I'm carring my SG3 to warranty post. I don't know any other options.
Edit: After 5 min tried to connect. It works now again just by reconnecting. Previously it didn't work that way. If it stuck, it was always stuck with that ip even if i did "'forget network" then "wifi off" then phone restart and wait some time. It could only work for some time if i did hard reset. Will see what happens next.
After another 5 min i tried reconecting to 2nd linksys router and now it has wrong ip 192.168.1.6 (not 8 at the end). But i get good in on main dlink router now! So main working and 2nd - not. Wtf... So this problem isn't caused by main router dlink. I now really believe that my SG3 has something wrong. I i will lose my connection again (can connect, but no internet), i will take phone to service.

if you somehow get your phone to connect to the internet again. Just go to the router's configuration window and increase the lease time to max (say 1000hours). That way, your device will get the same IP for at least 1000hours

Do not know.. Will installs few new roms and take it to service. Internet works now with main Dlink router but no linksys (other connected after main). I first thought it can be main router only. I thought when main locks with bad ip so other router gets bad ip too, but i was wrong. So no point in fixing routers, because if i go to anywhere else and there my SG3 lock with bad ip what then i should do? That's the point
This time i tried onother samsung galaxy s3 wich is not mine. Gues what. It bugged the same way. LOL. But somehow unbugged to correct ip after 5min when i did reconnect on that phone. Same thing happenned to mine with new rom. I jst installed new rom on mine and instantly as tried connecting got wrong ip again. But after 5mins~ turned off wifi and back on and it started to work again. Same s*it with both SGS3. I gues that's samsung fail with wifi. Wich cause with some routers to work wrong. And again all other devices have no problems with these router wich have SGS3s. I think i will have to live with it or buy other router.

I dont know if your router supports it; assign your phone a static IP.

So router with my sg3 worked for some time for few day and locked again. BUT FINALLY I FOUND HOW TO FIX THIS PERMANENTALY!!! YES!!!
To make device get always same IP and most importantly get GOOD IP wich would not be broken and you could surf internet. You just need to reverse IP in router's network settings. This fixed my problem instantly!!!
Reverse IP, what does that mean?

Hello,
I am having wifi problems with SG3. Can you please explain what you mean by reversing IP in router's network settings?
Example: 192.168.????
Thanks, I hope someone sees this I know this is an old thread.
Hey Guys.
Recently my WiFi symbol in the notification tray turned grey and didn't go blue again.
I've noticed that when the symbol is GREY, I'm not able to access Facebook (through it's main App),it shows "Updating" only.
But to my surprise, the net works fine in the Browser ( inbuilt browser)
After analyzing the problem, I found that whenever I turned my Laptop on, the WiFi signal goes Grey..
And when I switch it off, it turns blue.
On further investigation, I came to know that both the devices (laptop and phone) have different IP's
Plus, another android device works well with the laptop being on.
I'm using Xolo Q600
Android 4.2.1
*no root, nothing...I'm amateur*
WiFi Router NetGear N150
Any help will be thankful.
Lakshya.
Have you tried reseting your modem? or forgetting the wifi net with both devices and set up the connection again?
Hope this helps

if problem persist then try resetting your phone ones.

I have an Asus Slider Sl101. Around 3 days ago, our router had been changes as the previous one wasn't working properly. Our carrier is Charter and our router is Netgear. We hooked every device up to that new router and everything worked fine, including the tablet. But later on in the day,the Internet on there stopped working.
It shows that it's connected, but when I try to access the internet through the browser, it does not work. The blue line at the top of the browser starts up, moves forward a little, and stops entirely while the browser then says "Webpage Not Available". Apps that require Internet, such as Accuweather and my SAT apps, fail to work as well. Other devices that use our wifi include another computer and Nintendo DSi and 3DS. They all work fine. Our router shows that our android is connected to it, as well.
I've tried the static IP stuff, restarted the router, left the wifi off on the tablet for a few hours, and turned it off and off. I even factory resetted it and not even that helped.
I apologize in advance if I haven't given enough information; that's as much as I know save for whatever I can include from the tablet (IP Address and such).
Try changing encryption method

I'm sorry, but what is an encryption method?
Also, I just went to Starbucks and the Internet worked fine, so I know that it's not the tablet that giving problems.

It can be modified from the admin panel of your router. Obviously, each connected device must be upgraded to the new encryption method.
However, you can simply do a test and see if the connection works

Oh! Under "security", it says "WPA/WPA2 PSK". I believe it has always said that, even with our old router.

Probably
If the problem is not of the device, many network problems are usually caused by encryption or are due to the channel where the router works. Both settings are settable in the admin panel.
Try changing these.. Remember to make a backup first!

The things is, though, my tablet was working when we changed the router. Ever since then, nothing has changed when it comes to settings and all. Every other mobile device is working well and the computer out front that uses wifi works well.
In your eyes, the router seems to be the main problem, right? Do you think if we call our internet provider--Charter-- and ask for a new one that it might be able to work as it will be new and all? Or will it most likely not help too much?

If the problem is the settings of the router, this will not solve the problem..
The device successfully connects to other networks? You can do this test to see if the problem is the device or not.
hi sir i have already hack wifi paasword but not connected
password is correct sometime before i have connect
Is the router 2.4 or 5ghz, and is the tablet the same?
