At my home, I must use a Static IP. Now, everything is set up correctly, but there's no way to add a subnet mask. My wifi wont work, is it BECAUSE of this? It worked earlier, when i booted p crumble without wiping caches, after wiping, it wouldnt work... any ideas?

When I got my 70S a few weeks ago, everything was working great. I installed the latest firmware that was suggested right when I first booted and connected to WiFi, then installed market from one of the packages floating around here, installed some stuff... everything worked fine, I could see all of my network shared files through the built in file manager, etc... only I installed the wrong version of the gapps addon and so I couldn't get the YouTube app to work. So I found the right one, and wiped the device to install it properly. After the wipe, the Archos stopped connecting to my WiFi network. I didn't even install the addon yet; it was connecting, start loading a page in the browser, and then get stuck halfway through. If I connect to a different network, an open one, it works. But my network - no go. Shared folders don't work either.
Now I've read that there are some issues with the Archos and my router (a D-Link DIR-615), but the damn thing worked like a charm before the wipe! I tried everything. I tried wiping again (twice), I've tried disabling the powersave option, I tried installing urukdroid - I always get the same result. After connecting, it would load one page (google) and then the connection would hang, and load no more.
Anyone have a solution?.. Maybe some router settings? I've tried changing everything and anything that may be relevant, but nothing seems to have any effect of it. Help!
Have you tried -
1) Hard reset on your router and reconnecting?
2) Disabling the security on your router, forgetting the router in wifi manager, then reconnecting?
I tried forgetting the router, naturally. However, I did not try to hard-reset the router yet... I'll try that, thanks.
Hoping someone can help me out... My phone wont connect to my wifi at home (only place I use wifi). It gets hung up on "Obtaining IP Address" every now and then it will also show "Connecting, authenticating, not in range" but always comes back to obtaining IP address and never connects. I first noticed this after I had switched ROMs this past weekend. Went from MIUI to JTs VGB V7... Switched back to MIUI to see if it would fix it and nothing ( Always wiping cache, Dalvik, data in between) Have a tried a few other ROMs since and still getting the same problem... Flashed back to stock this morning and still cant connect to my wifi... I know its not my wifi because I am using it right now on my laptop... My wifes phone can connect without a problem (her phone is on PWGB v2). Anyone have any suggestions??
Thanks in advance!!
I don't know if the modem has anything to do with wifi connectivity but if your wife's phone has no issues on pwgb its worth looking into...what modem are you on versus her? Are they both on the same one?
Also have you tried just deleting your network and re setting it up?
Toggling wifi on/off, airplane mode on/off...not even sure any of those will make a difference just trying to figure out why your phone won't connect but your wife's phone will?

Yeah its pretty weird... We are both on the same modem, EC09. I have tried just about everything.
I had the same problem once. I re-downloaded the rom and kernel in the computer, put them in the sd card then, wipe data and cache and flash it without restoring any backups. That did the trick for me.
Kernel might have borked the IPtables. wipe caches and reflash the kernel.
I'm on the latest nAa kernel, using MiniCM7-2.1.9, but wifi just doesn't work. I can browse the internet using my 3G connection, just not wifi for some reason.
Wifi shows it's connected, the signal bars is full but it just doesn't download any data, it's like it's not connected at all. It's able to get an IP address and the link speed is good but it just doesn't get any data.....
I've tried searching through different posts and tried solutions such as:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21766413&postcount=498
as well as the instruction to fix wifi in the Troubleshooting page here:
http://code.google.com/p/minicm/wiki/Troubleshooting
and this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22170822&postcount=817
I also cleaned the dalvik cache by going into recovery, reboot and still doesn't work.
and they all don't work....
UPDATE:
OK nvm it works now. I reflashed the kernel, wipe data & factory reset and then reflash the rom, and now it works. It's the exact same thing I did for the past 30 mins, except this time I also reflashed the kernel. I just hope it'll continue working.....
UPDATE 2:
Ok, now it's not working again. I rebooted the phone twice, and it was able to connect to wifi no problem. But then later on it stopped working again, I didn't install or change anything either.
I also noticed that whenever I'm connected to wifi on my phone, the wifi on my PC will timeout and drop connection. If I then try to connect wifi on my PC, then the wifi on my phone will timeout. Basically, I can't connect both at the same time.
But all my other devices work fine. My Motorola Milestone and my mom's HTC Desire Z works fine. My iPod Touch works fine, I've NEVER had a wifi issue with any of my devices until I tested out my new Xperia X10 Mini Pro today.......
I haven't tried testing it on stock rom & kernel, because the first thing I did was to unlock the bootloader and flash the nAa kernel + MiniCM7-2.1.9. And I can't be bothered flashing back to stock since I won't be staying on stock anyway, especially after setting up everything already so I can't really be bothered.....
Anyway, so I then tried to delete wpa_supplicant.conf in data/misc/wifi (as mentioned above) and this time it shows "Error" under Wi-Fi settings.
This is really annoying me....
One note about wpa_supplicant.conf (/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf). In stock kernel with MiniCM Pro from paul-xxx the right ctrl_interface was wlan0.
nAa kernel (with MiniCM from nAa) needs tiwlan0.
So it isn't necessery to delete file with all wifi networks when changing kernel/ROM but one value in config file.
ya, except the value was tiwlan0 already, I tried changing it back to wlan0 and nothing happens. So then I tried deleting it, and now whenever I try to turn Wifi on it just shows Error.
What's actually strange about this is that I've backed up the original file, and when I restored it and tried to turn Wifi on, it turns on but doesn't display any network.
Before, it would display tons of networks, and it would connect to my router (but doesn't download data for some reason). It doesn't work but at least you can tell it's able to detect networks.
Now, it doesn't even show any networks. The only way to fix this is to restore from recovery or do a wipe......
Ok so I did some research and could this be the case?

I've also tried to assign static IP but it still doesn't work. I went into my router and checked the ARP, and it shows this:
IP address Flags MAC Address Device
192.168.1.2 Complete 00:18E:48:42:C9 br0
192.168.1.3 Complete 00:E0:4C:A3:8B:A8 br0
192.168.1.6 Incomplete 18:87:96:FE:16:3E br0
192.168.1.5 Complete 48:5D:60:3B:5E:5D br0

where 192.168.1.6 is assigned to my phone. I'm not that good with router stuff but know the basics, does anyone know what I need to configure?
I'm having the same problem with my mini pro

I haven't had time to try this out yet, but maybe you wanna give it a try? Scroll to "PROBLEMS WITH WIFI?" in this topic here:

I'm rooted, stock ROM (locked bootloader..for now)
The other day, I couldn't connect to wifi, it just hangs on 'obtaining IP address', tried different routers, restarting phone/router/modem, I even did a factory reset, which didn't help.
What I think caused it, is when I installed this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mgranja.iptables
(it claims to install iptables, but the version is has is out of date, etc.) which wasn't a great idea, I know.
my question is, how do I fix it? I'm thinking it corrupted something in the OS, which means I can just install a custom ROM, or go back to stock (somehow) but I don't want to unlock the bootloader unless I absolutely have to (giving this phone to a friend, soon)
My CoreX2 Tab with Jelly Bean,
i have tried wpa_supplicant for enable adhoc wifi access,
but now can't turn on Wifi,
How to Reset this?
pls reply
your gonna need to find completely stock rom.flash it and everything should be fine. wifi issues can come from a variety of things if their changed in the system. its really hard to pin it down if you dont have the same device. Did you merge the new wpa or open and edit. you might try returning back to stock config.wipe caches and run fix permissions.
