[Q] Wifi connectivity - HTC Sensation

I have a Sensation default ROM and since I bought the device I am unable to connect to my home wifi network. My laptops are able to connect to the wifi but my phone says obtaining and then disconnects then tries again and again.
my wifi is WPA secured and am like very near the modem itself.
I tried resetting the modem but in vain.
Made the wifi unsecure and then too it does not connect though my laptop connects to it.
Please help me out. I am in Bangalore, India using BSNL connection.
Thank you in advance,
Prajeeth
PS: if this is repost, please forward me to the answered thread and sorry for the repost.

Your laptop in b,g,n compatible?
Try to connect your sensation without any computer.
Box or modem can't manage g and n both....
Try to change your key in wep,then reboot your modem and try to connect your sensation.
Then,return to wpa2.
Instead, you can with some modem to associate MAC adress on wifi.

Thank You harnahud,
but even when the modem is set to unsecure mode. I am not able to connect to my network?
I will try and get back on my findings.
Thanks,
Prajeeth

[Q] WiFi won't work, no matter what!

Hi,
I've just received my Samsung Focus AT&T Unlocked, everything's look good except WiFi won't work, no matter what I do. I've tried all suggestions posted online..
Did NoDo update
Tried WPA
Tried WPA2
Tried with No Security (Open Network)
Tried the channels 6, 9 and 11
Even reset the Router
Reset the Phone
I'd really appreciate any help, WiFi is a must for me!
Many thanks for your help!
You did NOT provide enough information so we can't help you.
Eg. Does your phone give an error connecting or does it not detect WiFi at all? Does your WiFi works elsewhere such as your office?
Oh sorry.
Phone detects all available networks, but can't join/use them. The error is:
"Connection Unsuccessful - Your phone couldn't reach the WiFi network xyz"
Yes, tried creating a network with my Macbook and joining, but that didn't work either.
Have you tried to connect using Wired connection (when your phone is connected to PC with Zune launched)? I just want to make sure that connecting to internet and getting and IP is not the problem.

Yes, that works. So I turned off 'Data Connection' from settings, connected to PC and opened Zune. I can access internet on the phone, even checked the IP, it seems to be using the PCs connection. Removed the USB cable, and there's no internet.
So yes, that works which confirms that there's physical fault in the phone, just a bug?

I had similar problem with my university wireless connection. After several access with Zune, the problem was fixed. And by the way, it may not be a hardware problem since your device detects the available network.
Perhaps you need to visit a phone shop.

Ah, thats a relief to know. And since windows is not officially available in my country, there are no shops.
I'm expecting one of the experts here to chime in and help, or someone who has experienced and resolced this issue before.
Thanks
Can you please tell me your router's mode, channel, fragmentation, treshold values. Maybe that'll help.
Anyone? WiFi not working is so annoying!
I'd really appreciate any help with this.
Try connecting to WiFi at your office or somewhere else.
I also have the Samsung Focus and it won't connect to a certain router no matter how I configuration the router.

[Q] O3D + WiFi doesn't connect to the internet?

This is a strange one, because it used to do it and nothing has changed.
The WiFi can obtain an IP from the router, it can connect to my PC via the router.... but it just cant connect to the internet via the router?
If I disconnect the WiFi and just use data, everything that has been waiting comes flying through!
Any ideas what is going wrong, the phone says it's connected, but I could swear my WiFi symbol used to go green, but it is just staying white.
Running 21E OS.
TIA.
Couldn't really understand (no offence) but if this happens to me I usually just restart my router and it would work again.

Do perhaps have a Netgear router ?
If yes reboot the router
Change wifi Channel from Auto to 6 or 7
if not try the above also try setting up a static ip
Do you have Droidwall installed?

Yeah I do have a Netgear wireless, I left everything off all night but no joy... I will try your channel change thing and see if that works. It's strange because it used to work and i haven't changed anything that I am aware of and the PC has no problem. But obviously nothing is being sent to the Cisco CM. Hmmm....
Thanks for the input guys. :good:
Sorry OptimusTM, it probably was a bit garbled in my original post.... basically the PC gets to the internet (probably like most folks here) by contacting the wireless, then the wireless contacts the cable modem then it goes to the internet.
However my O3D can contact the wireless, but the wireless doesn't seem to contact the cable modem for some reason, however it will contact the PC.
The phone says it's connected to the wireless. It has been given it's IP address.
Check your DNS server address.
Put manually 8.8.8.8 and tell us if it works.

Thanks again for all your help guys...
I ended up fixing it buy changing the IP address that the wireless router was giving it (set it to static) and also the default gateway to the same as my PC's and it worked straight away.
Still no idea why it had such a dizzy turn in the first place though!?!? :silly:
same problem please can you explain steps

[Completed] Latest Android phones not connecting to WiFi router

At work we installed a new WiFi router a few months back. The connection is open and no one needs a password to connect to it. But many who bought android phones recently arent able to connect to it. I have a OnePlus One with android 4.4.4 which doesnt connect to the WiFi. My colleagues own Xiaomi, Motorola phones which they bought recently, which also doesnt connect to the internet.
The phones detect the WiFi signal, says the network is saved but fails to connect to it no matter what. The temporary solution is to make our laptop into a WiFi router and use it but this is seriously annoying. The router is from HP and I dont know the exam model number for it at the moment
I will be grateful if someone can find any solution for this problem. Also, I am a novice when it comes to gadgets so, if your suggestion is to manually set up my WiFi settings please do so with clear instructions or a video of some sort. However I will be happy if this problem gets solved in a straightforward manner.
Please help!

No need to configure wifi on your device IMO.
Sounds like an issue with the wifi router.
To check an fix the internet settings of the wifi router, you will need the adminstrative access/console/password for the router.
Then you can check that all new devices afre allowed to connect. On some routers you can restrict the access to a list of known devices or by enabling a MAC address filtering.
If you find such options on the HP wifi router, disable it and restart the wifi.
And make sure that the SSID of the wifi network is visible (= not hidden). Some Android devices have issue connecting to hidden networks.
Thread closed. Thank you.
