The wifi at my school has been blocked. I have used the command prompt to confirm that they haven't changed the password or anything else like that. The thing is that SAMSUNG and iPhone phones can still connect to the wifi with no issues whatsoever and even if they forget the network they can still connect afterwards so I don't think it's anything to do with MAC filtering but for any other phone it just says 'Saved, Secured' or 'Authentication Error' sometimes.
Please help I need this wifi because going on my phone is the only thing I do at lunchtime and I sometimes need it to search up stuff like mark-schemes for homework and without wifi this is impossible.
I even stupidly asked the school helpdesk (IT Guys) about this but got in trouble for it and had my sixth form application unbelievably taken away from me, but screw those guys.
I have rooted my phone so I'm open to any suggestions and yes I have tried the airplane mode trick, it doesn't work, yes I have tried changing my MAC address, doesn't work.
I'm eternally grateful to anyone that can help me fix this and so will be my friends who are also without wifi.
Oh, and some info that I got from cmd about the network(computer used LAN connection):

Thanks for reading, no really I appreciate every single reply
Edit: I use Alcatel Onetouch Idol 3
Was it just that one day you went to connect to wifi and it no longer worked? Is everyone affected that does not have either an iPhone or Samsung device? Can any laptop connect?

Really sorry for late reply, had to go to school of course.
And yeah it was just a day out of the blue and the WiFi stopped working for people without a SAMSUNG or iPhone but even some iPhones don't work with the WiFi anymore. I'm pretty no other phones can connect to the WiFi but could be wrong.
School laptops can still of course connect to school WiFi perfectly.
Thank you so much for replying, really appreciate it. :good:
Please HELP!

OK so work have blocked several of us from connecting our phones to wifi. Now we have a router her but can not access it so image they blocked at the main offices where they manage the network. Their are several houses that have their own routers etc but connected to the same network if that makes sense.
So my question is first how would they block us and second how can we bypass it?

Several ways to block access to a wifi routers.
Ways to access the network would be bring your own from home,and plug it in to the network.
To many ways to block you out to know what they have done.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S A510e using XDA
Probably two reasons why they did this -
1) Prevent rogue devices connecting to their network, i.e. devices they cannot control what is on them and therefore could introduce viruses into the network or allows others to hack in and steal data etc.
2) Prevent people connecting personal devices for personal use, downloading files, facebook etc. Using company time and resources for unproductive personal tasks.
Probably easiest to ask them why and to ease the restrictions.
On the how:
You can control what connects to what on a very fine level - by device, by what it does and who it can talk to.
Ye I understand why. They blocked us as their network is really slow and rubbish but when we do nights and no one is using it its nice to be able to connect as no signal their. Just wondered if their was a way to get around it. They seem to have blocked all phones that were connected but one that was has been able to reconnect which is a blackberry.

How to by pass works blocking phone 2 options
By pass I've discovered! May not work for all
WARNING TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK!!
#1 way I've discovered (in my office)
(Other wise try bring your own wifi router and setting the ssid to company's name )
If you have a pc or Mac computer and plug Incoming Ethernet port into LAN port not WAN then from 1-4 LAN port into pc/Mac Ethernet )
Try hiding your wifi router either in tower box or in desk try to be not so obvious leaving cables everywhere , don't just leave out in the open for everyone to see..
What I did
(I've hide the router in the under my desk using 3M double sided tape and tucked the cables away so there not hanging down)
#2 way ( works anywhere you can get a wifi signal)
My. Discovered by pass :
I got a wifi repeater/ range extender
I've programmed it to my work network with their ssid and password
Then
On the repeater / extender
Your new Access Point
I used the same ssid but used a different password
(At this point you have created your own AP , which logins to your network wifi and then
Now
When I go home I just unplug my repeater and lock it up in my desk
Good luck Jason
Ps: option #1. if you need more help try YouTube if your confused what to do with wifi router
SEARCH "using old router as a wifi extender (or as second AP)
My boss already block ssid wifi for usage at handphone, only laptop can connect that wifi. How i can connect wifi via my handphone? Currently i use i phone 6s.
Any trip for unblock for connect to my phone?
What kills me about my situation is some dumb ass did streaming video one day and ran up like XXXX gb of data so naturally they started giving a damn about who was doing what... I got banned/blocked even though I've never streamed... I'm assuming I'm blocked... got the right password and my old phone said authentication failed. My new phone it doesn't say or haven't found where it says yet... I can't bring in my own connection as I don't have a office of my own and the building is too big and metal for the mobile signal to make it to my location...
edit: According to my idiot boss they're getting strict I guess and just blocking most stuff... ?

Attention!!! I found a fix for getting wrong IP using your router!!!This should help you if internet worked at first day on phone or sometimes works and sometimes not after reconects. This thread i created is about my routers not working with SG3 and other devices. Router fails to assign right IP for my SG3. Example: 192.168.0.100-199(last digit from 100 to 199) should be IP in that range but phone aquires 192.168.1.6 or 192.168.1.8 and it can't get internet acces! I could connect but not surf the internet. To make device get always same IP and most importantly get GOOD IP wich would not be broken and you could surf internet. You just need to reserve IP in router's network settings. This fixed my problem instantly!!!
Thank me if it worked for you!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Everything below is history!!
Pure stock, not rooted SG3 international version.
I have strange wifi problem. We have 2 routers. One is main(dlink) it was working fine for 5 days and sudenly my SG3 can't connect to internet. I saw that my SG3 is aquiring wrong IP 192.168.1.8 instead of IP192.168.0.(range of 99- 199) so it won't get connected to internet, but connection to router is good. Tried 2nd(linksys) not main router and it works, i can connect to internet (aquires right IP 192.168.0.138) something like that in right range from 99 to 199. First tried wifi fixers. Didn't work. Then tried factory reset didn't help too. Then hard reset from recovery with data wipe ( correct me if that isn't hard reset). That helped, but not 100%. Now i can connect. To main (dlink) router with right IP IP192.168.0.(range of 99- 199) and internet works, but tried with 2nd(linksys) and now problem has transfered to that 2nd router. I only can ask you. Why? What socery is this? Maybe custom rom i install from stock would fix this. Or i need to fix my problem without roming first? Strange.

Update: i lol right now. I went with my SG3 to googleplay via (main dlink router) downloaded angry birds seasons to see download speed. Speed was okay, played few mins. Tried to go to store again. Internet was gone. Internet works fine on my pc but on phone throught wifi not. And changed IP from 192.68.0.(last digit range 99 - 199 ) to 192.68.1.8. Now both routers have 192.68.1.8 IP as i connect to them with my SG3. Connection is strong but internet does not work, because of that freaky IP. I don't imagine how to fix this. My only thought is to flash my SG3 to custom ROM, because other devices works fine with these 2 routers.
So i flashed custom rom and it worked for a while. I guess because i did data wipe/factory reset. I thought i have solved the problem. Recently i installed FoxHound Rom wich is absolutely briliant. Then getting started app asked me to find wifi network. I sat near my router and... it again aquired wrong IP --->>> 192.168.1.8 <<<--- INSTEAD of 192.168.0.( from range 99 to 199). I i don't know what to do next! HELP ME PLEASE! :/
Our other device Galaxy Note works fine as ipad works fine too with those 2 routers.. But not SG3. Arrggh..

Now i have flashed other custom rom and SG3 aquires right IP. For now. Internet works fine. Will report later. Any advices appreciated.

Update: found this thread http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r22...-wireless-devices-aquire-the-wrong-IP-address.
He says:
"Everything connects to the router but getting internet working is only accomplished by manually changing the settings to those described above."
Maybe that's because my SG3 can act as modem too? Can galaxy note 4.0.4 act as modem or iphone4?
Unfortunately problem back again. Browsed internet for few min and got wrong IP as i came 3rd time to connect to wifi dlin router. Then i tried another router linksys and got instantly bad IP by connecting to it too. What to do now?!? It's definitely something wrong with my SG3. Do i need to reflash to original, reset counter and take it to warranty post?
Or maybe there is else i can do? Help!

why dont you use the [1 to 99] host byte range? I know range doesnt really matter but if your phone wants to connect to the lower part, why not change that? Plus, did you try giving your phone a static IP address? thats the first thing I would do
I tried doing static IP on my phone and I think I did it wrong. Now I have flashed again I didn't connect to my main dlink router firstly after I flashed new rom, instead I connected to 2nd Linksys. Downloaded 300mb game and few more apps from googleplay, installed, restarted, reconnected and it still works. Will report later how it's going.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
All those few days i was connected to 2nd linksys router. So it worked flawlessly until today when i tried to connect to main router dlink. First time i connected today it worked fine. Second time i got that EPIC FAIL IP 192.168.1.6 now. What the F***?! I resetted that router like 5 times to zero and reentered ips. All other devices works fine with it. Why not my SG3?!?! And my computer threw strange internet connection error but it wasn't affected by it. Internet works on my computer as it should. Error was about double ip. It said that other computer in the same network had the same ip. But it works fine after that error. I'm carring my SG3 to warranty post. I don't know any other options.
Edit: After 5 min tried to connect. It works now again just by reconnecting. Previously it didn't work that way. If it stuck, it was always stuck with that ip even if i did "'forget network" then "wifi off" then phone restart and wait some time. It could only work for some time if i did hard reset. Will see what happens next.
After another 5 min i tried reconecting to 2nd linksys router and now it has wrong ip 192.168.1.6 (not 8 at the end). But i get good in on main dlink router now! So main working and 2nd - not. Wtf... So this problem isn't caused by main router dlink. I now really believe that my SG3 has something wrong. I i will lose my connection again (can connect, but no internet), i will take phone to service.

if you somehow get your phone to connect to the internet again. Just go to the router's configuration window and increase the lease time to max (say 1000hours). That way, your device will get the same IP for at least 1000hours

What's point of doing this if i go to other place and same thing happens. I will increase time there too or smth? I need to fix roots of the problem. Other devices works fine, but not SG3. Do not know.. Will installs few new roms and take it to service. Internet works now with main Dlink router but no linksys (other connected after main). I first thought it can be main router only. I thought when main locks with bad ip so other router gets bad ip too, but i was wrong. So no point in fixing routers, because if i go to anywhere else and there my SG3 lock with bad ip what then i should do? That's the point
This time i tried onother samsung galaxy s3 wich is not mine. Gues what. It bugged the same way. LOL. But somehow unbugged to correct ip after 5min when i did reconnect on that phone. Same thing happenned to mine with new rom. I jst installed new rom on mine and instantly as tried connecting got wrong ip again. But after 5mins~ turned off wifi and back on and it started to work again. Same s*it with both SGS3. I gues that's samsung fail with wifi. Wich cause with some routers to work wrong. And again all other devices have no problems with these router wich have SGS3s. I think i will have to live with it or buy other router.

Hello
Im a proudly owner of a S3 and a GNexus and I have some problems regarding Wi-Fi, I know that this is not an S3 problem but its and android problem but perhaps someone can help me in here..
the thing is, I have two routers in my house, one is the master one for cable/internet company and the other is and range extender to expand the signal of the wireless lan....
every morning, when I wake up, if I go to the floor where is the first router both my S3 and Gnexus connect successfully to the wireless network and evevyrthing works fine....however if I go to the floor where the bridge/extender is located, both phones detects the wireless network, however can't connect to it, on wireless settings says...Obtaining ip address...and stays there for ages...and nothing...cant connect...for me to connect to the bridge, I have to restart the bridge and both phones connect immediately...
please any ideas??

yes the network is password protected...I changed the encryption type for the WPA not the WPA2 and the problem still persists...

I cant connect to the brigde/extender network right now with both my android phones and android tablet, however with my laptop running windows 8 I can......

this is so frustrating!!!!!
Are you sure the second device extends the main access point and not just create a new WLAN?
Have you updated the firmware of both devices?
What devices do you have?
Am I understanding correctly that your laptop does work even though both Android devices don't (before you reboot the extender)?
Nope...its not creating another wireless lan... it extends the main plan correctly cause my laptop connects perfectly to the Wi-Fi from the extender even prior to the restart of the extender....
The devices are...main router from the ISP- Thomson
Range extender- tp link 701nd

Dynamic would be the friendliest to work with... you could try if it's a DHCP issue by setting a fixed IP when the problem occurs, but I don't think it is.
This is not a problem with the phone(s)....is with the router config. Contact the manufacturer for further assistance...

If you got a router and a range extender, there's nothing you need to fiddle with because the range extender will just Relay DHCP requests between client and master router.
Two routers* pushing out IP addresses is a no go, there will be a conflict in your scenario, and all range extenders will of course take this into account.
If you had two "real" routers*, it would still be possible to set everything up, although then there's a lot to take into account.
* Router is a inaccurate term used for the consumer grade combination devices. They're in fact a router, a switch, and a wireless access point bundled in a neat package. Sometimes with a xDSL modem or something on the external interface of the router.
Try setting the IP to static and more important, try giving it a default gateway to the routers IP. That should make it easy for your phone to directly look for the gateway it is looking for.

I have three routers, one main, one extender, one repeater (creating a whole new network for other building). Both main and repeater are the same network. All is config as per DD-WRT documentation. All three have latest DD-WRT.
After trying many things, all I can say is the (or mine at least) S3 always has trouble when many APs are nearby. I don't use VOIP because of that (it could disconnect at any time).
Next step on my list is to have 3 different SSIDs (only two now) and try using tasker to debounce the wifi switching (if that is even possible).
hey people,
here is the issue. i am able to connect to my wifi at home no issue. when i try to connect at work it says connected but i have no access to the internet. the bars are grey with the up and down arrow going crazy but the bars never turn blur. sound like its not authenticating. i noticed when i connect its always trying to connect to the same DHCP IP. i asked the network guys to release the address manually but it does not seem to have helped. any ideas. i do not know much about DHCP so i could be blowing sunshine up your a$$. ; )
i own the i757m so there is only 1 radio to choose from.
talk to your network administrator and ask them to verify if the router is actually seeing your phone.
it maybe trying to connevt but the router is not acknowledging the phone is sending a valid request.

My phone is HTC 620G but I think its not important because I've factory reset it and it didnt help. The problem is I'm connected to wifi but I can't access to internet. Sometimes I can but its way too slow, way way slow so as I said I formatted the phone but it didnt help. Waiting for your help

Sorry forgot that,i was at my cousins and it was working perfect, problem is only at my home
I realised something now, i entered my gmail account on laptop and it sent my phone a notification, when i opened it I saw that one of my last connected location is Ireland. I didnt download any vpn apps so why is this saying that?
You might want to check the router settings. Some routers have a default limit on how many devices can be connected at once. It sounds like either that or IP address conflicts.

It could be about ip address because there isn't so much device, so what should I do? And I think it could be about dns settings, I tried something for that but couldn't solve it
