My hp touchpad is not connecting to my home wifi network, I have tried very many places and my touchpad connects to wifi but at my own home wifi it simply does want to connect to wifi. I did a hard reset and nothing works any ideas?
What kind of router? How is your network set up? Open, WEP, WPA or Enterprise?

it is a wep, netgear router
Make sure your router has the latest firmware available, then power cycle it and try connecting with the TP again.
Might need to change it to WPA for it to work.
Coincidentally, mine wont connect to my netgear router for wireless N - sees it, but won't connect to it regardless of settings, connects instantly using G.....

I'm having a technical problem with my home Wi-Fi router, and my Fuze. I just recently set up a wireless network at home, and have my PC connected to the router through Wi-Fi. Whenever I attempt to connect my Fuze to the router, the Fuze hijacks the connection, and disconnects my PC from the network. I have tried to contact the tech support for the router, but nothing they suggest seems to work. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there something I am missing in the router configuration? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

i've used my fuze on multiple routers and it doesnt do this. Get a new router
If you give static ip on both pc and ppc check if you gave the same ip. If not, check the dhcp range on your router.

Maybe I should not have said "any help would be greatly appreciated". It is a new router.

First thing I would try is updating the firmware, and doing a factory restore.
If that doesn't work, try changing the router to force 54g connections only. It's possible, but unlikely, that the Draft-N spec used by the router doesn't play nicely with the WLAN chipset in the Touch Pro.

agreed, i would try this first. makes sense that if they both have the same ip that that is the cause of your problem. if you're set to assign dynamic ip's on connecting to the router, then i'd try upgrading the firmware. good thing to check first
Still having problems with this issue. Tried everything suggested so far.
Make sure the IP's are not conflicting and the dhcp range is at least 10 addresses.
It could also be a neighbor screwing around, make sure you encrypt your wifi with wpa or wpa2 or anyone in range can use your wifi.
When I first read your problem I thought it was an IP conflict with both devices like some others have said....but if you've checked everything and tried all possible solutions posted in this thread I think it might be pretty safe to assume that you need a new router. If its new, just bring it back and exchange it for a different one.
I'm using a D-Link DIR-655P and have connection types (B, G, N) on auto, dynamic IP address assignment set, and I have the latest firmware installed and I have no issues whatsoever...I have a quick lock and fast speeds.
I've got a few questions, because to me this sounds like a possible issue with your network adapter on your PC, rather than a DHCP "hijack" issue.
What is the ip on your PC after it gets "hijacked"?
Do you use sleep/hibernate modes on your PC?
Have you turned off Windows Firewall or any other security/virus/malware software on the PC?
This router is new, did this setup work with a previous router?
What security protocol are you using for wireless connections, WEP, WPA, WPA2, or none?
-----------------
Hope you can figure it out, that's gotta be a real PITA.
Got it fixed. Did some more research, and found that the firmware updates do not work with Firefox, so I used IE to do the update, and it works fine. For anyone else that uses or is planning to use this router, check the firmware. The firmware version that mine came with (1.0.4 build 10) does not work with multiple versions of Windows (ie: cannot have a computer with Win XP and another with Win Vista connected at the same time). Thanks for the help.
Ahhh...well there you go. Glad its fixed.
Need a little help. My G-tab is running current VEGAn-TAB rom. I am having problems getting the wifi to actually connect. My icon shows a good signal, and inside the wireless settings I am showing connected to my wireless network. I also went to advance settings and made sure wifi never sleeps. All apps that need internet connection (market, browser, etc.) show no data connection.
Used yesterday with no problems. My laptop is running on same network and working fine.
Any ideas?
have you restarted? Sometimes happens to me too but it's nothing a simple restart can't fix.
Yes. Restarted several times. Didn't work.
Oddly enough I have a Airave from Sprint to boost my cell phone signal, and it may have been the problem. When I unplugged it and returned to my G-Tab later the Wifi was working. Not sure why.

Could be competition on the 2.4 GHz frequencies. Some wireless phones and even microwave ovens can trash a wifi connection.

Anyone else having WiFi problems with Vegan? Since installing this mod, I can only connect to a WEP signal and not a WPA-secured network.
I can't connect either. Trying to connect to a wep wifi and it stays on "obtaining ip address from ..." but never completes the connection. Any help?

No problems with home WEP, office WPA2-PSK and several wide open public ones. I just wish the damn thing would auto-connect to the ones I have been to before.

My only guess is, if its a 5Ghz N Router you should check to see if it allows
2.4Ghz signals and not just 5Ghz. The GTAB doesn't seem to support connections at 5Ghz.
I just changed over from TNT Lite(latest version) and was able to connect fine but I didn't like the interface and some of the features. I've loaded Vegan tab 7.0.0 and I was able to connect at work (802.1 EAP) network but I can't connect to a wep wifi at home (were several other pc's are connected and working fine) and it stays on "obtaining ip address from ..." but never completes the connection. Any help?
I have a Linksys wrt300n router and have confirmed that it configured to accept 2.4Ghz & 5Ghz signal and have rebooted several times with no luck.
I don't have a lot to add to help you troubleshoot, but I can say that I am running VEGAn Gingerbread RC1 with pershoot's latest kernel. I am able to connect at home on a WAP2-PSK (Linksys Linux based G/N) at home, WAP2-PSK at the cabin (Linksys's cheapest G/N), and at work on a 802.1 EAP network (Cisco).
I has some unexplained issue mounting the internal storage on a computer. After a little head scratching, I started to wonder if it had something to do with the custom kernel I was running. I flashed Pershoot's latest kernel and my problems went away.
I mention all that to suggest that you might try flashing a different kernel and see if you get different results.
I have an issue with vegan where when i reboot the device (or turn off and turn on) wifi is off even if left on when turning off, i have to manually turn on wifi after every boot.

Have you checked to see if you're using MAC address filtering, and if so, that your gTab's MAC address has been added to the whitelist on the router? I get the feeling that that may be the issue. You have the WEP key on your device, but your router's still blocking it. I'm running the same ROM you are, and have had absolutely no troubles connecting to my work network with 802.1 PEAP, WPA/WPA2-TKIP and AES at home, and multiple makes/models of access points/routers.
Hmmm. Just reread your original. Now I'm wondering if you have enough DHCP leases available on your router. If you're out, you'll have to wait until a lease expires or add some more to your scope of addresses.
Hope some of that helped in some way...
Wifi will not connect to multiple routers. It was working, then stopped yesterday. On the wireless network screen, it shows my network SSID and when i click on connect, wifi shows "connecting" and will sit there for hours doing nothing.
Removed all security from router and it still will not connect.
Rooted and flashed multiple 3.1 and 3.2 roms, will not connect.
Reset router multiple times.
Unrooted and went back to stock and still have same problem.
Tried setting static IP and DHCP, but neither work.
Tried airplane mode on, wifi off, airplane off, wifi on and that didn't work.
What makes this problem ever more weird is when I go to see the wifi MAC address, it shows an address of F5:3F:FE:03:00:00 I'm no computer genius, but I'm pretty certain that isn't even a correct MAC address and I definitely know it's not one registered to ASUS.
Anybody have any thoughts or ideas?
Just to add some more information:
If I setup the TF as a hotspot, I'm able to connect to it from both my phone and laptop. But still not able to connect to anything from the TF itself.
No help as far as why you cannot connect, but that looks like an OK MAC to me.

That's odd, because if I try to add that MAC in my router filter list, the router comes back and says it's not a valid address. Oh well.
I know it's not a hardware issue because I can connect my laptop to TF when TF is setup as a hotspot, but not the other way around.
I am having an issue with almost every ROM for the transformer. It rarely connects to the Wifi tether app on my thunderbolt. I did manage to get it connected once but it never connected again. It just got stuck at the "obtaining IP" stage. Also, I have issues maintaing a connection with my home wifi. Sometimes it will connect for 15 seconds then disconnect. The only thing I can do is restart the modem. None of my other devices have this issue. Whats going on?
My wifi tether app has an access control list, does yours? See if its on or off. Also for the home connection do you have any mac filtering on? Do your wireless security settings match? Any static ip settings? Are you running 5ghz on your home network? The tf only supports 2.4ghz.
Try making home network with no security on and connect.Any proxy software? Do youhave ATT u-verse? I heard u-verse supplies there own router.Just trying to eliminate anypossibilities.
I used krakd and prime without issue.
Not sure if this helps or if u even have CM7 as an option but I have no problems wifi tethering my TF with my Optimus V running IHO-CM7 and I only use Quick Settings for the wifi hotspot.
I would have to assume it is more ur phone then the TF.

I have access control turned off. I believe there might be something wrong with the ROM on my thunderbolt. I have tried CM7 and tethering didn't work either. I have disabled 5ghz and ill do some more testing to see if it works better.

Hi,
I have a problem with the wifi on my Samsung Galaxy S2 after I changed some settings on my home router. The wifi works anywhere else, just not at home.
What I changed was the router ip and wireless channel. Since then I have cleared all the wireless and browser settings in the phone and reverted back to the old settings on the router. Still doesn't work.
I've also tried having static IP. It doesn't work as well. It's only the internet. It connects to the router fine and I haven't had any problems with other gadgets and computers connecting.
Your tried turning on airplane mode for a few then reboot?
Your router doesn't have a sync button does it?

One thing you can do is delete the connection to your router on your phone, and connect again with new password from router. Do you have any other device beside your phone connecting to this router? If no, you need to test it. If yes and not connecting check the connection security, like wpa or wpa2. If all fail, reset router. This mean you will need to reconfigure your router. Check manual for more on your router.

Yes. View available wireless connections. Click your router. Then click "forget".
Then view again, click your router, and type the passphrase.

My router is a cheap basic router that came from my internet provider. No such thing on it.

I've already reset anything wifi related on my phone. It hasn't worked.
Do you have something else that you can connect to wifi to see if the problem is your router?

Not in my home no. But like I said in the OP, the wifi on my phone works fine in other houses and hotspots. It's most definitely some kind of communication problem between my router and phone only but I'm not familiar enough with routers to know the problem and I haven't stumbled on anyone else on google having the same problem.
Two laptops, one Win7 and one OsX, are connected. Unfortunately I'm new in the area I live in and my girlfriend doesn't have a smartphone so I haven't been able to test if it's just my phone or just android or iPhones in general.
I can't think of a logical reason why it's like this
Maybe router is configured with wifi 802.11n and the galaxy only runs on b/g ?
If you're using WPA/WPA2 security, check that the
router is set to use AES encryption.
If you think you did your best. Its better to buy a new router then. )
maybe you could try unplugging your router?

I didn't change any of that. It's got a WEP encryption only as well.
