I had this exact same issue but after all it was just a brain fart (mea culpa!); it turns out I had my router configured to not accept new terminals automatically so the phone was never going to connect to the router, so I just turned off the option and that's it

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
Hi. I have a problem with wifi. Internet on cable and wireless on laptop is working without any problems. But when I connect the phone (Sony Ericson Xperia X10i android) connection takes 2 or 3 minutes maximum. then gets disconnected and i can not connect to wifi either by phone, or the laptop. Wired internet can connect. Devices can detect wifi signal, but they cant connect. The problem is solved if i reset modem/router but again the same story appears when I try to connect the phone xperia to wifi. My phone somehow turned the router off. Sorry for my english. Please help!
OS is Android 2.3.3
Does it work with other WiFi hotspots?

How can be this be possible? The phone is actualy manipulating the router. It turns wifi off. Even another devices cannot access annymore. Thats really strange.
After upgrading to ICS 6.1.1.B.1.10 on my wife's new XPU had no issues except for the WIFI bug.
It refused to connect. So after a bit of trial and error here is the workaround I found and I am sharing just in case anyone else has the same issue.
1. Login to your WIFI router and change security to WEP with a shared key.
2. Set a key which is exactly 5 characters. a-z 0-9
3. Connect to wifi from your phone.
VIOLA!!! works. Its a major bug and sony should get this resolved soon.
But until then here is my simple workaround.
Switch router to b/g mode only (not n).
Use WPA2-PSK
--> Safer
Might as well not bother with security if you're using WEP.
Never had a single problem with my Xperia U and wifi on any firmware, using WPA2 and a 18 digit pass code.
I have never had wifi issues either, and my girl has an Xperia U too and same as me, perfect wi-fi.
Try to restart router if you can
My GF has the same problem, after the update to ICS (on the Xperia U) every time she tries to connect to WIFI it works for a few seconds and then it stops.
But that's not all, after that, nothing connects to the WIFI anymore, all active connections stop, the router sends data to LAN (wire) only,
I can't connect any device to the WIFI, I tried with my Galaxy S, Xperia S, even the laptop.
I have to restart the Router to have WiFi again.
Does anyone know a solution, except the dumb one to turn my router to b/g?
I have another router (old one WRT54GL) and it's not even working on this one. No connection, despite the fact that it's a b/g router.
Use Flashtool and put the .54 or c firmware on

Hi guys,
so here is my problem, i have Xperia Z2 with 5.0.2 Android.
Everything worked fine for few months wifi connected automatically to my home network, but yesterday it stopped working. It connects for maybe 5 seconds and then disconnects. When i try to connect i need add password and then it connects for few seconds and disconnects again.
I had the same problem with my old router few months ago. Phone was connecting without any problems for months and then one day it stopped.
It was some old TPLink model, now i have TP Link W8790. The same scenario after few weeks ;(
I havent changed anything in modem settings, the same with phone.
Any other devices like my 3 laptops, and 2 other phones have no problem with connection.
My xperia connects to other networks without any problems.
I was looking for solutions everywhere.
I ve done all resetting device, changing modem settings etc.
Could You please help me with this one?
Which secruity has your Wifi? Did you try changing the password?
Yup, i've done everyting with my router, with reset and change passwords. Encryption is set to WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK. I discovered today that my phone disconnects with my friend's network as well, but it worked fine few days ago. In fact i remember that I connected with that network and then when I came home, my phone started to disconnects from my network. Both are 2.4Ghz networks. It must be phone issue . It works on 5Ghz with network in my work... but at the same time it cant be 2,4 issue since i connected to AP which my friend created from his phone.. thats crazy. Is there any possibility to reset wifi card on mobile?
Did u try a factory reset on your phone? Did you OTA-Update from your provider or flashed a FTF for 5.0.2
I havent tried to restore fabric setting, I dont think its a solution, because it stopped working one day ( few days after i paired my device with sony wristband swr10, i dont know if it matters) and then after 2 months not working, i changed my router.. worked for 1 month and now the same problem with new router Update came from provider.
Hi all,
About a month or so ago I started to experience issues with with the Wifi and Bluetooth on my tablet.
At this stage I'm unable to switch on the Wifi or the Bluetooth. I'm only able to to use the cellular connection. When you try and enable the wifi connection is shows that it's trying to scan for a network, but it actually never switches the Wifi on. At times it actually pauses for a few seconds after selecting the Wifi option. Then at times it just doesn't do anything when trying to activate the Wifi via the quick pull down menu.
From what I have read it appears to be a hardware problem, but then I also saw comments that it might just be a software issue.
I was rooted at one stage and in my desperation I did a OTA update to the latest 5.1.1 release to see if that will help, but it did not.
When I was rooted I did a factory reset via TWRP, but that also did not work.
My device isn't under warranty anymore so RMA isn't really an option.
However I would like to check with the community if there is anyone else who had this issue and managed to get it fixed.
Is it a hardware or software problem or even a bit of both?
Would one be able to possibly replace the WIFI and Bluetooth radio in the Z2?
I normally use the Z2 for media consumption whilst at home over the wifi connection and would like to see if it can be fixed without costing an arm and a leg.
Your help or suggestion will be appreciated.
