Hi everyone,
Nowadays i'm experiencing some problems with my wi-fi connection being really unstable on my Desire GSM with CM 7.0.3 installed. It's connected to wi-fi and suddenly the signal gets down and the device just can't get IP Address from my wireless B/G/N network... after rebooting the phone it just gets fine but after some while again the same.. so I want to log my Wi-Fi adapters status and see what's going wrong with it... I'm sure that it's possible to log because of i heard about that some where.. :
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/26128-703-and-wifi-problems/page__view__findpost__p__214836
any suggestions how to do this?
I am having this exact problem....
A lot of ppl are having this problem. Please someone help us..
A temporary way to solve is to switch to b /g mode until getting some fix but it will reduce the speed and coverage area.

Hi Guys. You are the only hope for me to resolve the problem with WiFi on my device.
So the situation is: I received Motorola Defy with Android 2.2.2 on board not from a shop. This device was already hacked a little (root, localization etc..)
So I decided to flash CM 7 on it
I did everything as described in instruction. But after I have flashed this device I found that WiFi does not work. It began to work after flashing for a small period but then it stopped working
Device successfully connects to wifi, receives IP address but no application can connect to Internet. I tried to install some WiFi programs to try to resolve this problem, tried to switch wifi mode on my router (WPA2 AES/TKIP, WEP, no security at all) that did not help
Even pinging my router gives me "request timed out"
I wonder can I somehow investigate deeper into this problem to find solution for my problem? Or this bug cannot be resolved?
No any suggestions?
I would suppose that posting at the CM7 post at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033654 would be more useful.
Some people say that they have wifi problems

Ah yes...
Anyway wifi is a known issue. Doubt posting would do you much good though.
I suppose it is just best for you to wait for it to be fixed. =(
What's your phones MAC addres? It's there in WiFi settongs somewhere chances are its not a real MAC addy and your router doesn't like it, I thought that issue had been resolved just try a different Rom

No
I do not think that my router blocks my phone by mac address as if I use froyo 2.2.2 wifi works perect.
BTW if i use CM7 wifi also ok. I mean connection to my router. Phone receives ip address and this is OK. But internet connection is available only several minutes after flashing the phone. Then I cannot even ping anything from my android terminal
Exactly,
I have wifi issue on my latest 7.2 nightly build, too.
So, it looks like, phone wants to connect to saved connections (wifi status is connecting), but there should be status "searching", and stays on status Disconnected. Pushing Search button, do nothing.
When I delete few saved connections, wifi could do "search", and after that, i can connect!.
I think, there is critical numer of saved connections, when it is riched, then wifi can't do search, and connect to any host.
Try Airplane mode
Hi. For me going to airplane brought wi-fi back to life, and it stayed alive after turning all radios back on. Hope it works for you.
Check you WepKey, It is often that
I have a couple of wifi networks shown in the list but i can't seem to locate my home network. Is there some sort of problem with the OS? i updated my nexus s to 2.3.4 already...
Would CM7 solve this problem? i believe my router is on channel 13, can it be issue as well? can it be solved by installing CM7...
Please reply soon because i will stop fiddling with my device if i have to return it which i really don't want to...since the other choice is Galaxy S and i don't want that because of its hard button...
is your ssid hidden? Try entering the ssid and password for your network manually.
i tried that as well but it says "network not in range" when i'm standing 6 meter away from router....i don't know i'm feeling so bad...is there any rom around which fixes this problem? any fix? please help me out beofre i go and throw the phone on the vendor's face :/
Hi all,
I am new to this forum, I am experiencing an unsolvable issue related to wifi connection.
My device (nexus s I9023) cannot connect to any wifi, when i insert the password for a given network, it seems as if it accept it even if it is wrong, and stating:""saved secured with WPA2". I tried to removed the security password from my router, but the problem is still there. The tel is brand new as I received it from the insurance ( previous one stopped restarted) version is android 4.1.2
Please help

I've noticed WiFi problem in my moto g 2015.
My home WiFi is not connecting, it reacts like gone through infinite loop. My home WiFi is having WPA2 protected access.
Every else's WiFi is connecting to my phone.
Please help.
It would help if we had much more details. A link to a video would be perfect. Does this happen with any other Wi-Fi networks?

Did you manage to resolve your wifi problem?
I bought the Moto G (2015) 2GB RAM / 16GB ROM for my wife and she's having problems with the home wifi. It often says there is a "connection error" and loops to try to connect again and then fails. Her work wifi seems to function ok.
Having read about similar problems with older moto gs, people recommended (1) turning on and off airplane mode. (2) changing channel number of router.
Both sometimes work and sometimes don't. But it's not really a permanent solution. I'm a bit reluctant to do a factory reset and reinstall everything if it won't resolve the problem. The device came with the latest firmware already installed (5.1.1) and I haven't rooted or unlocked bootloader so should be a pretty clean install.
Anyway, would like to hear that factory reseting could resolve this issue or not before trying.
Thanks for any advice!
Mine does it every now and then. I just unplug my router, wait a minute, plug it back in, and then it connects.

Yes. It works for me too. But what happens if you're on a public or work wifi where you can't reset the router? It doesn't really seem like a long term solution.
Is this a standard problem with this phone? Anyone else have a similar problem or preferably a solution?
Cheers

Yeah resetting other than home router is not the answer. It's an Android issue as all my phones do it from time to time. I haven't been able to figure it out. The other "fix" if you can't reset the router is try going into the Wi-Fi settings, and forget the network/name, and then add it back as new. It takes longer, but it could work for you. That's how I get around it when connecting to work when it won't auto connect.
Hi, I had also faced the same problem with a open wifi network which is free for 15 mins ..
Other than that one ..i had every router connected to my phone..
I was thinking the problem is not in your phone.. It's in router which might be old ��
Because old routers will have 802 a or something which are in compatible to some phones..
Or the router is not allowing your phone to get connected.. As your phone is latest and it has advanced protocols inscribed in it..
Do one thing.. Shed some light on this now :
1) router model (if known to you)
2) phone models which got connected to that router and it's operating system version (like 5.1.1)
And there is also one more point.. I found our phone might find problems connecting to 5ghz band router ..while it works fine for smaller routers like 2.4ghz
We can decide when you dig some info about the questions I mentioned...
We will get answers
Just turn off wifi and then turn it on it will fix the problem

You would think it would be that simple, but it's not. It just sits there "Connecting", then nothing, then "Connecting". Keeps cycling like that.

My router is a netgear CG3100Dv3 (using WPA2-PSK [AES] encryption) and uses 2.4 GHz. I don't think it's the router's fault though because I've had many friends connect with a variety of phones and none of them have had the problem before. I currently have a Oneplus One (android 5.0.2) and have used a Nexus 4 and Samsung Galaxy S (1) on this router without problems. Maybe it's a problem with android 5.1.1 as I guess not many of my friends have it yet. I've written to motorola support but they still havent got back to me.

Strange. I've never had a problem before with wifi. Maybe I've been lucky until now. Yep - have tried forgetting and reconnecting to wifi signal. Again, a temporary solution that will quickly become irritating when there shouldn't really be a problem for such a simple operation.

It's a temporary solution but a pain in the arse if you have to reset the router every few hours. And as I said before, what happens when you can't connect to a router which you can't reset? (i.e. public, work)
Change the router's channel, then refresh the wifi in the phone.

Firstly i agree that our Moto G has some kind of issue with some routers.. but there will be solutions for them from the ROUTERS POINT OF SIDE to make it work
i have read about your router .. Things i suggest (if you have already done them then let me know )
1) your router has option to change MODE to get speeds more than 150mbps.. try changing that 802.11 MODE , restart your Phone and Router and also keep CHANNEL to AUTO , try changing the security WPA to others also..
2) your Wifi of your phone will have a MAC address , copy that and paste in your Router to allow this device..
i am still finding info on your problem..
the reason why i think your Router can solve the problem is : i had once read about 802.11 b/g/n/ac types.. i am getting a doubt that they are the ones causing the problem.. if you are aware of it
have a look at this bro once : http://www.smartmobilephonesolutions.com/content/cant-connect-to-wifi-on-android-smartphone
in this he said that Wifi fix apps can solve the easy problems..:highfive: , hope you find solution

Hmm. That doesn't sound promising. Will they sort it out with the next firmware update? Are motorola even aware there is this problem?

Ok. Will change channel to auto mode. It was already on "up to 300 Mbps". Will also put MAC addresss in the router.
However this still relies on having access to the router. What happens when you don't have access. If this is going to happen on many routers then I prefer to return the phone and buy one which never has this problem.

I'll give a wifi fix app a go to. But they just seem to automatically delete known wifi SSIDs and passwords.
Another option would be to root and install new ROM and radio, but would prefer not to.
It seems like a lot of Nexus 5 users on 5.1.1 are having wifi problems too:

Just a quick update if there is anyone else reading this thread with a similar problem.
I changed the channel mode to auto and that has seemed to fix the problem. The moto g seems to connect without problems now. I didn't enter the MAC address nor used a "wifi fix" app so far.
Fingers crossed...
I have the same problem. Wifi just stops working and had a ! Symbol beside the wifi icon. I have probably had a 100 phones and devices connected to this router without a problem. I have changed a bunch of settings the router and it didn't help.
Disabling wifi off then on works, but that is no solution. I will try anther Rom or kernel. I am on resurrection 5.1.1

My problem was slightly different in that the phone wouldn't even connect to the wifi signal. It would cycle continuously between "connecting" and "authentication error".
Does it work with other routers?

Thanks for your help! I'm still a little wary that the phone will have problems in the future on other routers, but it's a good enough fix for now. Hopefully a later firmware update will sort it out.
Unfortunately, my wife took the moto g on a business trip last week and could not connect to any wifi signals (her colleagues did not have a problem).
Not sure what to do now. I'm in contact with motorola support but they don't have any suggestions yet (apart from blaming the router - which has never had a problem with any other devices!)
