In the Wireless Networks it says "Connected" next to my "SSID" i have the correct key and dns/static ip setup. I go on Marketplace, internet browser (Opera), and another internet browser (Skyfire) and none of them work, so basically I'm connected to my router but I have no Internet.
I have HSPL3, ChuckyROM, and Radio Radio_2_11_50_26, I used to have Radio 2_12_50_02_2 but the internet didn't work with that one either.
What could be wrong??

First off why are you using static?
Second have seen these types of issues before with static , try dynamic(DHCP).
well i have to use the dns, i don't need the static ip, i switched to dhcp and only input the dns but it is still not working.

In your settings, when you configured your wifi , in the box that says "connects to:" did you select "The Internet" or "My Work", this should be Internet ...
yea its says "The Internet" and by the way, after i removed the static IP my connection just says Unavailable when i try to connect (I hide my router's SSID so i input the stuff manually)
Oh and i had a motorola cliq before and it connected just fine
ok so for some reason i retried it just now and the internet works...so i guess problem is solved
Hi, I searched the forums and found this thread regarding wifi Internet problem so I'm posting my problems here.
I'm having similar wifi issue. I can connect to home router just fine but when I'm out using either free wifi from some stores (like panera or starbucks) or School wifi, it shows up as "Connected" but when I try browser it won't even show the home page or log in page. I switched from "Work" to "Internet" but it still won't work...
I don't think it's hardware problem but more so OS problem or something i'm missing. This problem only occurs with WinMo 6.5(I use stock rom), and when I boot Dan Android, wifi works fine. I'm not sure if Android's usage of wifi is somehow affecting my WinMo's ability to log into wifi but this is my wild guess.
If someone knows what my problem is could you please help me?
thanks
i think my problem was that when i tried to connect to my wifi, my hd2 was connected to my pc via usb. when i tried to connect when i'm not connected to my pc it worked
that's about all i know, hope it helps
did recognize this too...i think w-lan is disabled when active sync is activated...because the phone can use the internet connection of the pc.
back to topic: do you use static ip's in your home network or does the other networks (school) require a static but you're on dynamic ip?
DN41
hm, I have no idea which ip I use when I'm connected to home or public. How do I check?
I have HD2 with official India ROM. Here, I use the WiFi network of my workplace. The network connects to the internet. When I connect and go to browser, I'm asked to install a security certificate. Then, I'm presented with the page (not message box or popup window) which asks me to login to the network through a proxy. Once I login, I get the page with countdown (about 200 seconds). It refreshes in 200 seconds. I have to keep this tab open so that I remain logged in to the server. Even when I want to use WiFi as internet connection on other applications (like My Phone, and Mail), first I have to login through browser.
Is there any way to save user name and password to my network settings, so that I don't have to fire up browser each time I want to use the net.
Thanks in advance.
Hello,
I just bought a new mobile 2 days ago: Samsung Galaxy S3 (International version GT-I9300)
I usually use an Ad-hoc connection network to browse internet from mobiles or another wireless device.
Now, with the new samsung device, i am unable to setup a static ip address to the mobile phone. Can someone please help me?
Note:
I already went through settings --> About Device --> Status --> IP Address marked as unavailable.
And
Settings --> Wi-Fi --> Advanced --> IP address Unavailable
I read on google, we should have had "enable IP address" and i cant seem to find it.
Other useful information: Android version: 4.04
Kernel version: 3.0.15
Thanks for helping in advance.
Kind regards
Takeur
Long press on your connected network and modify. You can only set static ip addresses individually for each network.

Like we both said, once the network is connected, in the list of wireless networks, long press the network and select "Modify".
You cannot set a static IP where you are looking. This would affect all wireless networks and also your carrier network. You would NOT want to be able to do that

The problem: the network never gets connected, as it needs a static IP first.
I understand the long press/ modify network. Even if i do it and configure the AP's IP, i cant setup the IP of my phone still.
Anybody who have the same phone as me, has he had more success please?
You don't need to actually connect. Scan so you can see it in the network list. Try to connect. As soon as you try to connect, even if it fails, you can then long press the network and modify it.

I just set the ip as follow: 192.168.1.30
The gateway is set to 192.168.1.1
Still there is no connection possible.
Cant help there.
Same problem here! Anyone found a solution?
I set the password, I enable Show advanced options, I set the static ip, gateway and DNS BUT the "connect" button(if I make my first connection) or the "save" button(if I chose modify) are greyed out on both cases!
does anyone know why?
p.s. I have done this with success in my Galaxy S2 with ICS!

I just found a solution!
I installed this app WiFi Manager found my wifi throught this app, setup the static IP, mask, gate, dns, saved and I was connected! then went to the android wifi menu, saw that this info was also saved there, so I uninstalled WiFiManager and now everything is OK!
Hello,
did u root ur device?
I installed that app too and configured the ip address for wlan card.
But when i checked with this application: "Display Wifi IP", it says that the ip is not configured.
Can u please post screenshots how u managed it?
Thanks in advance.

No, my phone is not rooted.
these are some screen shots of what I did:
1.wifimanager-push and hold the wifi
2.wifimanager-select "assign IP address"
3.wifimanager-write the IP, mask, gateway, DNS
4.android wifi settings- saved(forever) and connected (even if you uninstall wifimanager)

i did it that way too, however when i use the software "display wifi ip", it remains 0.0.0.0
With wifi manager, i was able to configure my ip, but looks like it is a permission issue
Anybody's else who knows something more?
Try changing your network prefix length to 32/24/16 or 8.
I had everything filled in completely and correctly except I left the length to 24 and the connect button was staying grayed out.
Once I changed it to 32 from the default 24 the button lite up and I immediately connected.

Already did that my friend.
The mobile is not rooted and we cant set up ad hoc networking (or a static wifi ip)
Simply pathetic.
People r making petitions as far as i no. Thanks a lot guys for helping out.
I have this problem too. I had my home WiFi with Static IP configured on my S3 a couple of weeks ago. Then I come back from a vacation, just to realize S3 forgets the WPA2 key to my network. "No worries", I said to myself, and tapped it in again.
Then I set IP settings to Static IP, but the IP address/mask/gateway/both DNS fields are all greyed out! I can't enter anything. This is ridiculous!
EDIT: Forget it guys. I'm stupid. It wasn't greyed out, but it was displaying an input mask in a grey colour. Ugh. Everything's ok.
My WIFI Fix Note 2
Ok, So here was my scenario:
I was unable to connect to my work wifi with hidden SDID and Static IP. Everytime I went to put it in, it wouldn't connect and then my wifi would turn off.
I had to find the app called AT&T Smart Wi-Fi. I turned off the wifi via this app.
After I did that, I went back into my settings and turned on the wifi under the settings dialog and not with this Smart Wi-Fi app. Then it finally let me connect, I managed to goto advanced settings after I was connected added my static IP and was good to go
Good luck everyone!
All,
I just recently got my S3 (T-Mobile) on opening day 21Jun12 however could not get my wifi to work properly at home. It would say "connected" on my S3 but no internet and wifi calling. In addition, when I tried to "enable" my wifi calling, I would get a REG99 error. Tech support narrowed this error to an address update on my profile (911 address info) which was updated but the problem still existed. I troubleshooted with my router and saw no problems on that end due to the fact that 8 other devices connected fine. After looking carefully at IP addresses, I noticed my S3 persistently tried to connect with an IP of 192.168.100.16 where all my other devices had an IP that started with 192.168.1.(xxx). Check to see if your S3 defaults to a conflicting IP or IP that your Router does not accept (My router accepted standard IPs from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254). Before you do the steps below, reference your Router Configuration and check your starting and ending IP addresses, Gateway IP, DNS and Alternate DNS.
Now for the fix:
If you're S3 is connected to your home wifi but no internet, wifi calling, etc.
1) Simply goto Settings
2) Click on Wifi to get to the your wi-fi networks list
3) Press AND HOLD on the connected network (The one that says connected) and a window will pop up
4) Select modify network config.
5) highlight advanced options
6) Change IP settings (dropdown) to static
7) Enter a new IP address that your router accepts (ex. 192.168.1.10). Like mentioned above, my router takes 1-256 for the last number set. Be careful to not select an IP address that's already being used. You can easily see what IPs are used in your router configuration setup (something like attached devices).
8) Make sure your gateway is similar to your router config (usually 192.168.1.1)
9) Network prefix length - I left this alone at 24
10) DNS 1 and DNS 2 can be also found in your Router Config setup. (DNS 2 is usually your alternate DNS).
11) Click save and voila (You may want to turn wifi on and off on your S3 to recycle)
After 3 tech support calls with no resolution and researching this for the last 2 weeks, I found the answer to my problems. I can understand how annoying this problem could be for some people out there so I decided to register with XDA and post this for you all.
Hope this works for some of you. Enjoy!

Sounds like an issue with the phone's DHCP client.
However afaik T-Mobile sells the US Galaxy S3, not thn international i9300 what this forum is about.

I have purchased a Alcatel Onetouch Idol X+ very recently and I am facing this problem of slow DNS lookup when connected to WiFi. When I am using WiFi and trying to browse any website it always taking 20-40 seconds to start show up any content. Later I realized that problem is not there when I am using directly IP address of an website instead on domain name. So, this must be an issue with slow DNS lookup. I have tried setting google DNS servers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) in WiFi connection setting, but it is of no help.
To crosscheck this I used 'terminal emulator' to ping any website, what is see is that, always for resolving the domain dame it take 15-20 second time, then ping continues normal, similarly when I use any website IP to pinged there is no such issue.
Interestingly I found that sometimes when I connect to wifi then restart the phone, after that all browsing works fine and fast, but as soon as I change WiFi to another connection or turn wifi off-on, then again problem start to appear.
I have checked with few other phone connected to same WiFi connection, those are not at all having any such issue.
Can any one please tell any solution to this??
Android version is 4.2.2,
WiFi connection (which I am using) speed is more than 10mbps.
