Possible fix for wifi cm11 - Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Please note this method worked for me it may or may not work on all devices
ive seen many people reporting that it gets stuck obtaining ip address so here is the solution for that
Don't kill me if it does not work
Here are the steps
long press the wifi connection and select modify network (if its password protected select forget and try)
check the Show advanced options
in the IP address field type the ip address of your network (for example my ip address is 192.168.0.1)
now connect it ... it shows connected (don't be too happy) but you cant browse internet
now again long press on the wifi network and select modify network and now remove the ip and select the DHCP and save
turn off and turn on wifi
it will automatically connect to the network
if still not connected delete the files in data/misc/wifi folder reboot device and try again
additionally try connecting using and apps like wifi fixer etc
hope so it works for all
thanks

Have the same problem on Motorola Moto G 4G XT1039. Just flashed cm-11-20140929-NIGHTLY-peregrine.zip build and my WiFi is dead. It connects but then stays in "Obtaining IP address" forever. I've followed all the "fixing suggestions" mentioned in this thread but the problem persists. Any more ideas?

Try changing your routers channel to 11. See if that helps at all. Also check to make sure your routers firmware is up to date.

I think the router is up to date.Plus i have been sharing n using this router to my pc my tablet my laptop and my bro's ics ph too.They don't have that problem.
Then i try wifi hot spot with my tablet n try to connect it with my evo 3d.The same result come they jux vanish though ph wifi still on.I wipe the cache n everything before i flash the roms.The same result.
Then i use krait android 2.3.4 and wifi is ok.
I think it is the problem of ics with my ph but don't see other ppl have same problem.
Thx for ur reply.Plus help if u can.

wifi is turned on but when i connect to it the wifi are disappered.Other ppl can use well please help
Then i use add network,It tried to connect then disappered later as always
Install this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.farproc.wifi.analyzer And see what channel your network is on. I've not had problems with my EVO 3d but my girlfriends HTC Legend had the exact problem you describe. Change your router channel to something below channel 10. It's normally easy to change on your router settings page.

Can't surf the Internet.
I'm form Spain and since I installed ICS ROMs I can't surf the Internet using WiFi.
These are the facts:
Revolutionary S-OFF HBOOT 1.49.1107
I've installed latest firmware -radio 11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504.06_M and kernel is 3.0.16-gd468ce7-.
I can link to the router but can't surf Internet. I have 2-3 seconds to surf just after link is established but then the Internet connection is gone although the phone is still linked.
I can ping my phone.
Myphone explorer works through WiFi.
And these are the ways I've tried to solve the problem:
Set different DNS.
Router set to multichannel, USA, etc. Tried different channels.
Installed WiFix and set regional country to US, EU, ES. Fixed permissions after doing this.
Tried different ROMs.
Extracted Boot Image from ROM.zip and flashed it via fastboot.
I still can't browse Internet so any help would be appreciated.
After a lot of attempts, I finally managed to solve my WiFi problems with ICS ROM.
The problem is located in the subnet mask -I'm working with fixed IP-.
Unlike a 255.255.255.0 format, in these ROMs I have to set the prefix (0-32). The equivalent value for 255.255.255.0 is 24 but here is the problem. This value doesn't work in my device. If I set 32 instead of 24 IT WORKS!!!!!!

have you tried to reset your router??
HIT THANKS IF I HELPED YOU FRIEND
It sounds like modem/router failure, try reset your router and reconfigure it again and see if problem's gone.
WPA2-PSK TKIP or AES?

Wifi Keeps Authenticating

I have an Ifive Mini 3GS Tablet. When I got it I could connect to my Wifi without any problems.
Now, after doing an update I can't connect anymore (I didn't change anything to my home network).
I tried flashing another firmware, but that doesn't fix it.
When I try to connect I put in my password and then i keeps saying: "Authenticating"
What I tried sofar:
- Flash another firmware
- Factory Reset
- Change the channel on the router
- Change the security on the router
- Change the SSID
Please note; All my other devices (smartphones, laptop, other tablet) don't have any problem what so ever to connect.
Strange thing; When I use my Sony Xperia Z1 as a hotspot I can connect without any problem (When having set security to off).
When i disable security on my router, I can't connect.
Does anyone have a solution to this problem?
