I am having trouble with authoricating Wi-Fi. When i connect to WiFi a website should pop up to allow me to login. However this is not happening. I had a Samsung note 2 and i had no problems at all. Is there some setting i need to use?
Not sure what you mean popup, I simply open the web browser and try to open any website, it will redirect to login page if it reqires login or accept something.
Ya thats the problem its not redirecting the web page. I am using chrome. I have tried setting chrome as the default browser but no luck with the web page being redirected
When that happens to me (e.g. at Starbucks, at McDonalds, any public place with WiFi, etc) .. I usually wait around for a little while and like every 20 seconds or so I try to navigate to google.ca... If done correctly the WiFi access page should appear. If it doesn`t work, try going to the WiFi settings and forget the network and reconnect to it. Once you connect to it wait like 20 seconds sometimes the pop up will happen right in the settings.
Thanks i'll give that a try. I know there's a bit of a problem with chrome and the default browser. Thanks for the help I'll let ya know

On my home network the Mate 2 does NOT do well on N. It runs fine on G. Perhaps that is part of the problem.
Very slow Wi-Fi
I am using my HAM2 without a SIM card, on wi-fi. It is way too slow and gets disconnected. Is this coz of no sim or is the phone by itself having an issue?. My other devices ( laptop, Nexus5, iphone6) are having a good signal strength and is pretty fast
Any advise to increase the wi-fi on this phone will be really helpful.

Ive been putting up with this problem for ages, but thought I would try to get to the bottom of it.
I set up Wifi in the normal manner on the Athena, and enter the code. All is set up fine and wifi connects to my network. However if I start internet explorer for instance it will load the home page, Google in my case and it loads it fine. then when I try to load ANY OTHER page, it just says page not found. Its not just a google thing, or an I/E thing. my face book App will only load once, HTC home/weather will only load once. it will only connect to messaging once. All the other laptops, my HTC universal, all work fine. I even tried other roms, but always the same problem. I have T-mobile unlimited wap but its nice to have fast wifi to.
Has any of you clever sparks got an idea what it can be?
Regards
Jay
Hey I'm new to android, just got a vibrant last week. Decided to unlock it as I travel a lot. The unlock worked, but now I'm having issues with my wifi. I can connect to a wireless network but I cant load pages. The wireless signal is strong and I tried with different routers, but still no luck. Looked through the forum and googled it but couldn't find a solution. If some one could please help with this, it would be much appreciated
try clearing your current wifi settings including remembered connections, passwords, and everything else...then re-scan for networks all over again, that's all I can think of for now
By that you mean just gong into settings->wireless and networks->wifi settings and then just forget the net work, rescan, and rejoin the network? If so, I did that but am still getting the same result. If you can think of anything else or if I didnt do what you suggested correctly please let me know. Thanks

yeah, thats what I meant :/....hmmm...sounds like your connection is working, can you download stuff from the market or is it just the browser? cause I unlocked mine too and wifi works fine
No I cant download anything from the market. I cant do anything that requires an internet connection, but it does show that I am connected to a network.

I sure hope so, thanks for your help
Have you been able to try another network? My first thought was it was in Ad-Hoc mode but I could be wrong. If nothing else restore to stock firmware and then try a different unlock.
Happened to me too. It would show the wifi icon on the notification bar but wouldn't load pages. I'd go to the settings and it'd say can't turn off wifi or can't turn on wifi. And when it was "on" I'd say connecting to modem then it'd just stop. When I was using the browser on wifi it would load a page even when I had full bars. I had to turn it off then back on to load another page. Is this similar to the problem your having?

I hope this doesn't sound stupid but yesterday I uninstalled Advanced Task Manager and poof my wifi started working again. The phone also seems to suffer from less occasional lag without it installed, but that's another story for another thread. Prior to this I had to manually turn my wifi connection off and on, but even that didn't always work. Since the uninstall I have not my wifi connection once. I am currently using the stock rom, rooted with minor adjustments here and there.
hi guys, i also have this problem.
i will be taking the phone in to the tmobile store on thursday.
it shows that i am connected via wifi; however, anything that requires an internet connection does not load.
very frustrating, since just yesterday i used the samsung kies software to tether a network for my laptop. i was testing the capability of the vibrant to act as a modem, and it worked just fine.
any help would be appreciated!
thank you
Charlie
connected but not connected
I also have this problem.
In my Vibrant shows that i connected, but i can not load pages. Someone
found any solution to this problem?
Hi all,
This is happening to me too. Rebooting seems to get Wifi working correctly again. But the problem comes back eventually.
Maybe a bug in the latest JI6 update?
Wi-fi problem.
Someone found any solution for this problem?
Froyo's update will fix this issue?
Thanks.
i hang on you **** iphone users they just bay for its cool smartphone **** iphone android is the king
Hello guys! I’ve got XT910 since December 2011, everything was OK, but few days ago something happened and my 3g Internet doesn’t work anymore. At first I thought that it problem with my cellular communication operator, but I checked my SIM-card on another phone and found that 3g Internet works properly. Another 2 reasons that makes me think that problem is in my phone, it’s:
First, I still have a symbol of 3G connection on top of display, and when I make request a page from browser the arrows on this symbol start highlight in both direction, but browser says “Web page not available”. And second, sometimes I use Orbot for anonymous browsing, and yesterday I found that Orbot can connect to server, I checked Orweb browser and I found that Internet works on it as before. I install Proxymator, and redirect all my internet traffic through Orbot, and all browsers and applications that require Internet connection start work properly. But I didn’t find the root cause why I couldn’t connect to 3g internet direct. Maybe somebody can help me? Sorry for my English.
Sounds like something is blocking it. Have you installed anything recently?
Howdy all. I have a wifi at home which works with web authentication i.e. you connect your phone to wifi and on opening a browser, it redirects you to an authentication site wherein upon entering your username and password, you get connected. The authentication page requires you to keep the tab open and work with another tab, otherwise you lose the connection. When working on a PC, it works like a charm. I keep the tab open and wifi sticks for long even when you're not active. But on a smartphone (I have a Galaxy S3 here), it's a living hell trying to keep it stay connected. I've tried keeping the browser app resident in memory, created a tasker script to browse the URL and reconnect on certain intervals which honestly is too tedious and needs a better solution, used wifi web login apps which don't work to my satisfaction i.e. don't connect just when connection is lost; but in all these cases, the connection just seems to disconnect making me reconnect time and again :/. I would be utterly grateful to anybody who could suggest a solution for me for this as this is seriously making me lose my sleep.

Dunno much about wifi security protocols but this is as my ISP provided. I've tried modifying the router protocols but nothing seem to make the web authentication go away.

is there any security settings tab? or maybe it's under the wireless settings tab

Nope, even setting security protocol to open shows the auth page. Might have to find a different solution for this.

it could be the provider is forcing it, have you tried another router? normally, the web authentication is a proxy, so that could be the modem, or at the provider's end

Don't think the router has anything to do with this. Only the provider URL loads in the browser for authentication. So yeah, would know if it had something to do with the router.
So guys,
I don't know if everyone knows "fon", but it is a global wifi conection.
It has a public wifi network and we have to login to it by browser.
The problem is that on the Oneplus X the login screen doesn't even appear. If i try automatic login by the app i lose the wifi connection.
Anyone has the same problem?
Any thoughts?
Cheers
I've tried wifi connections via Starbucks and Transit (MTA Wifi) as well as my school wifi and they all require opening a browser to login, They worked fine for me. But I can't seem to detect my Gym's wifi, idk if it's my phone thats not detecting it or that the wifi isn't even there since I didn't have a buddy to confirm whether or not it was available. But the other scenarios worked fine.

I have a similar issue.
My previous device was a Nexus 4, and I used to get a notification that prompted for a login when ever it connected to public wi-fi (was the wi-fi icon with an exclamation mark next to it). Didn't need to open a browser.
No it may be that was a stock Android feature, but it worked really well.
On my OPx I have to open a browser and type a url before it will redirect to me to any wi-fi login page. It doesn't work if I refresh an existing browser page - I just get a message saying it can't connect. During all of this however, the wi-fi icon shows the 'connected' state. It's the one thing that really annoys me about this device, but very few people seem to mention it.
Yes. I think it's strange. Maybe we are the only one that use public Wi-Fi?
I've got same problem. Very annoying. Considering that free hotspot in our town has such login (actually just form with single button to connect), SSID same all over town and it automatically connect as soon it see such network and losing sync/connection to all background applications like messengers.
I'm currently battling with OnePlus Support about this issue, they somehow not fully understand issue :crying:
Well, maybe they don't have hot-spots in China or something... But we don't see so many people saying that they have this problem.
That's why oneplus don't care about it also
Hi, i have the same problem with autentication web page. The phone connect to network but the autentication page don't work.
Yes that is the problem i was talking about!
But i don't care now, thanks to MasterAwesome.
Goodbye oxygen for ever!
