I recently bought a Galaxy 4.0 player and so far everything is spectacular.
The only problem is that I can't connect to the wifi network at my school. Everyone else can connect with their laptops and itouchs. I try to connect and it says "obaining ip adress" and then a few seconds later will say "disabled".
Every other wifi network I've tried to connect to has worked perfectly.
Hopefully I'm not missing something obvious.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
I had the same issue. Go give IT a visit and see if there is a second network. My school has two of the same networks. One is password protecred. That is the only solution I have found so far. I hope all goes well.
it is an issue with the router ..
actually not the router either .. it may be using one of the newer encryption which is not supported
Hey all,
I have spent the past 4 weeks frustrated by the constant dropping of wifi connections over and over and over since upgrading CM7 to the latest CM9 nightly .... Anyways, I accidentally walked into a fix for my issue. I haven't seen this in any of the forums or suggestions so I came and created an account just to post this fix.
So all I did was disable the WMM Mode option in my wireless router and now wifi is not dropping at all and is flying speedwise!!
I have a Belkin wireless router and all is now well with WPA2. I have no clue if this will help anyone with another manufacturer.
Google says: What is WMM Mode belkin?
A feature called Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) is present in the router, which allows for media files to be given precedence over the wireless network.
Anyways, hopefully some poor soul as desperate I was will see this and it will help them too.

I just got CM9 and haven't had the chance for wifi to drop on me yet, but when it does I will surely try your suggestion. Thanks!
Yeah,... no.. Disabling WMM didn't work for me.
In fact, it managed to completely knock off my laptop from my LAN. And the only way I was able to connect to my LAN was through my Extended LAN. Weird.. I know.. I don't understand it..
But on the flip side, I was only wanting to test out this WMM method to see what happens.
I wasn't having any connection issues as far as getting on the internet.
The issue I was/am having is accessing the Internet via my LAN with Wireless N Only.
Currently I can connect with Wireless N.. However with that setting.. accessing Youtube video streaming is very slow (Turtles Crawl) to load (Which is a major deal for me).
Also Connecting my HP TP to the LAN with that setting is HIT or MISS, Mostly Miss. When trying to connect to my LAN the HP TP will not respond to the request to connect and simply do nothing.
So to correct that I have to bump down my LAN to Wireless G Only. With Wireless G Youtube streaming is normal with almost no delay what so ever.
With this WMM method I was hoping it would fix Wireless N/YouTube Streaming issue I currently have with my HP TP.
But.. Alas Horatio.. I didn't know him well!... hehe...
WMM/802.11e is REQUIRED by the 802.11n standard—so disabling this should break 11n and, as such, should not be done if you use 11n.
I was using an app called wifi fixer to keep a connection. That was after trying everyone of the router tweaks people suggested. It worked fine for months on the Alpha 2 (without needing an app or router tweak), then when I started using the nightlies it started dropping. Whatever version I am on now is solid, and has no issues. I am afraid to try a newer nightly in case it breaks again.

I did not have any WIFI issue with CM9 so far, perhaps the new nightly fixed the issue. I had problem with Wifi on WebOS where the connection would drop randomly. At first, I thought it was TP but later found a fix for DIR-655 router, since then, no problem whatsoever.
all these problems can be fixed by modifying your wpa_supplicant.conf file also, learn about this as well

Hello,
After installing I9300XXDLIx updates, anyone having issues with WiFi in a network where multiple routers have same SSIDs? At home my WiFi connects to internet without any issues and when I come to office where we have multiple routers with same name, I face internet connectivity issues. Other phones works perfectly well in this environment. Neither i had any issue with s3 on ICS (4.0.4).
Note: Network signals overlaps as well. See screenshot attached.
Thank You

Anyone who can help?
I've posted this in the HTC forum for my mobile and realized that this may be more of an Android directed inquiry.
I've been able to use Wifi Tethering (from Google Play) (version 2.0.7) to successfully connect a Motorola Xoom to my HTC One X mobile via bluetooth. However, when I connect to my VPN service with my mobile, I no longer have active internet access with the Xoom. The bluetooth connection is still active but when I try to surf the internet the browser just hangs and then errors out. I was wondering if there was something I could do with the DNS settings with the VPN service or IP routing on the mobile to fix this issue.
Can anyone provide a little direction on where to begin troubleshooting this issue? I've Google'd this issue to death for the past four hours and have had zero luck finding anything regarding VPN's and bluetooth tethering. I have found similar issues with WiFi tethering but I believe that protocol works differently. I could be wrong though!
Hi all been having problems with WiFi on AOKP/cm10.1 ROMs for the last few weeks when I try to connect I get authenticating IP loop then avoided poor connection even though my WiFi connection shows full bars the solution was to go into the router settings and change the connection to n only instead of auto b/g/n also weird as it sounds my wife has a s3 running the same ROMs and she never had the problem anyway hope this help someone
