Have you tried 3G and Wifi?
Despite otherwise claims by Skype/Microsoft, the protocol is quite easy to detect and block in case your carrier doesn't like Voip.
On another note, Skype doesn't work reliably for me on either mobile phones or desktops: keeps loosing connection or not seeing online contacts.
Yes. I have tried wifi, 3g. Still no connecting.
I have read thet people have problems with galaxy 9300 and skyoe. But cyanogen solved problems for them. For me not
I have even tried chanogen jelly bean. Still not connecting.
Internet is ok. Strong and good signal. Strange.
Maybe someone has anh ideas?

I got my GS2 not too long ago, and from the start, it's had issues connecting to my house router. I've tried the wifi elsewhere, and it works just fine.
I have about 7-8 other devices that connect to my router in my house, and they all work. Why doesn't my GS2 work? It's still on stock rom.
I have Verizon FIOS and the plain router they give you, if that matters. Looking for answers before the 30 day window if possible.
Have you tried restarting your router?

Or check for a firmware update for your router.

Is your router a D-Link? The SGS2 hates D-Link's. It has a fondness for Netgear's.

Will that really help? Everything else works fine.

I'll do it now since it sounds simple enough.

It's an Actiontec. Never heard of that brand.
Is there anything else I can do or check to figure out this problem?
Nvm. I restarted the modem, forgot the connection, then reconnected it. It worked, though it's kind of a weak signal. Thanks given to those who posted.
not the first time I've read that people were having weak wifi signals on their SGS2. I have yet to experience this myself so I'm guessing its incompatible with some routers. I have a verizon fios router and it works great.
I've noticed weaker signals on my S II compared to my captivate and my wife's Atrix. Nothing huge.
That's off a westell 327 dsl router.

I've had no problem connected to secured wifi, but whenever an open wifi is available and I get the notification, when I try to click on it, I just get a Settings crash / force close notification. If I try to manually go into settings and into wifi, it does the same thing. Phone is unrooted - anyone else having this issue?
wifi fix? not for me
I found somewhere online that you can punch *#*#526#*#* into your GSII, and it fixes wifi problems. When I do this, it does begin a driver download, but it never seems to finish. I'm still having the force close issue when trying to open settings to connect to some open wifi sources.
Hey guys, (Did extensive search before posting this)
Whenever I get a MMS the messages show a download button but will not download. I have tried turning wifi on and off, turning mobile data on and off, rebooting, using stock app and Go SMS and nothing is working. I looked in APN settings but do not know if they are right or not.
The issue just started recently, I have had the phone about a week and they seemed to work at first.
Please help,
This is driving me crazy and is frankly unacceptable in 2012. I saw some threads about old Galaxys having this issue.
You have to be on mobile data without wifi for them to download.

Thanks for the reply, but I have tried turning wi fi off, which in turn reverts to mobile data and still no success. Could it be that I also use a micro cell? My carrier service is literally the worst possible at my house without the micro cell. This is quite unfortunate if so.
I think wifi has to be off when it is initially coming through and yes, a micro cell will do it. Is it a voice micro cell or data?

Its a voice micro cell, but it also transmits a 3G signal. Not sure of the speed since I always use wi fi.
This is boggling my mind. Are you telling me that it is not possible to recieve a freaking MMS message created in 1982 (sarcastic) on a 2012 LTE device if I am in a wifi network. WTH. That is crazy to me.
So are these images gone or do I need to turn off wifi and turn off the micro cell to download?
Thanks for your help btw.
So I disconnected wifi and disconnected my microcell and clicked download on Go SMS and nothing, error message. Pulled up the stock SMS app and clicked download and after a half minute or so the picture appears. The picture then also shows in Go SMS.
I guess the solution is no MMS while at home which is a bit frustrating coming from another device/platform where this problem would not occur.
Thanks again.
I have the international GS3 on AT&T. My phone automatically downloads MMS if only mobile data is on or both wifi & mobile data are on. I believe it is your microcell causing your disruption OP.
Sorry, my international S3 also only downloads MMS if only mobile data is on.. I have yet to see it auto download when Wi-Fi was on. I would say it could be the microcell in this case though.

Weird. I am on T-Mobile though and my galaxy nexus was the same way.

It isn't just you. I had the same issue with my GSII. It would randomly appear and disappear. Have the person resend it.

Not true. I am on WiFi 90% of the time and I still get MMS
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
When mms comes in the WiFi should temporarily shut off and the radio picks up 3 or 4g in order to download it. U honestly won't notice any seperation. If u honestly can't receive them, check your apn settings
Sent from my vivow using Tapatalk 2
You are getting mms when you are away from your home/microcell, correct?
hmm, i just noticed that mine has been doing this lately too. MMS won't download unless I turn off wi-fi. I'm on t-mobile
It Works ok if im less than 5 meters away from server. But anything over that and its unusable. I work about 10 meters from the server. And I get at least 2 - 3 bars of signal out of 4. And I can't even post a comment on here. The speed is very fast for about 30 seconds and then ridiculously slow. It also struggles to connect. Tries about 3 or 4 times before it connects. I'm running cm10 on s3 but have this problem on stock, omega and checkrom. I had simular problems with the s2 aswell but not s1. I don't want to use wifi kill as its my work and it might not solve the problem. Is this the s3 working on networks with multiple apns? Is there a code I can call to turn off power saving ?? Can't force to 5ghz either.
Some advice would be massively helpful. I am getting very frustrated.
Thanks in advanced

I believe the problem lies in network or in the wifi router. Maybe it's overloaded, try on-off cycling the router and see if it works then?
I kinda doubt that the issue is in the phone
I've fixed it now mate. Well chuffed. Don't know what it was really. But the method I used in above thread worked. It all started when I first rooted and flashed omega. Cm9 got rid of the authentication error (so it seems Sammy is at fault there) as for the WiFi range of about 3 meters and no connectivity after that distance. I'm not sure. Perhaps a problem deep in the settings I could not find. But completely wiping all settings worked. Not ideal. But confirmed working all day at work. So maybe a omega fault I don't know. Jus happy to have fixed it

It can be many problems! Maybe the ROM that you are runing has poor Wi-Fi support or maybe the phone is just "getting old" or maybe its the Wi-Fi set that sends you the signal!
I got a s3 which is not old but I've fixed it now. Thanks

I am having problem in accessing mobile data from day I started using JB leaks. I am getting H+ signal but not internet. It works some times. May be it's just coincidence. Is anyone having this problem?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
i dont believe there have been many threads reguarding your issue....of having a network but with no internet.
i assume you have run down the typical trouble shooting
APNS
MODEMS
ECT....
Oh, and when you switch back to ICS does it start working agian?
APN looks fine.
I am using the Odin version of LI5.
Going back to ICS - Naaah. ...

I'm having a very similar problem on my UK handset on orange running latest jellybean Rom.
There are times when I am trying to load an internet page or xda subscribed thread for example and the phone shows full signal and the data is switching between 3g and h+ on and off and the arrows show nothing happening or data transfer.
I normally end up exiting the page/app and restarting it.
Is this a modem problem? Do I need to flash a different one?

Hey guys,
I have a problem with my internet connection. After staying in a wifi-area and being connected for a few hours, my phone won't automatically connect to the mobile internet. When this happens I have to turn on Airplan-Mode and turn it off again in order to make it work.
It's kind of annoying. Can anyone help me? =)
Thanks

AW: No mobile internet connection after some wifi-time
I had the same problem with different devices. I think this is a o2 Germany problem. I use a S3 (4.1.2), a S2 (4.1.2) and a Galaxy Tab 8.9 (4.0.4), all this devices doesn't connect to the mobile network after wifi connection.

Might be the problem... but I never had this problem with my old Nexus S (4.1.2) on the o2 Germany network. I'm confused
I solved the problem using WifiFixer Free app in the play store .
Now everything is fine
