need help with wifi

hello guys,
I got a lg optimus 3d for a week now and i love it ! i only have 1 problem... and thats wifi. my mobile will not connect to my wireless connection at home.
Before this phone i had a nokia n900 and i never had any problems with connecting to wifi. i searched on the internet for possible answers but i havent found any.
This is what i do :
step 1 : i turn wifi on
step 2 : i'll search for my internet connection and enter the WEP code
step 3 : this is where the problems start, my mobile keeps saying :
connecting.... disconnected.... scanning.... connecting.... disconnected... scanning and this goes on and on and on till i turn off wifi
Last friday i turned off my router and modem and after i turned it on again my wifi worked but not for long because since this morning its doing the same thing connecting.... disconnected.... scanning etc.
What am i doing wrong ? i even tried my new sim card in my old nokia n900 and no problems at all....
I really dont know what to do and i hope you guys can help me.
mobile internet is working fine btw but i really want wifi at home because its faster
greetings,

You can try 2 things to see whats the problem:
Find another router and try with that one.
Try to connect to another network and see if it works.
If none of the above works, then we are talking of a defective phone most probably.
EDIT: Something that you can try right away is to switch the authentication on the router to something else for example WPA2 and see if that helps.
EDIT2: Also be sure that the DHCP on the router is active. Kinda lame I know but it can cause such problems.

Try to switch the authentication first if you havent done it already. Just to try to do something while waiting 2 days

Go to your neighbour and try to connect on his wifi ,if it works then you have to reconfigure your network,if not then it's probably phone defect ..

Hmmmmm thats strange...
Your phone should have an error with the wifi drivers so try to flash the stock firmware of your phone.
Here is a guide by me

I had also faced this problem when i was using gingerbread. So, i made a backup of my phone and factory reseted it/wiped data using cwm and after reboot my problem was solved:good:
YOU can also try flashing stock rom using odin as stated by danyznd123
BUT FIRST MAKE A BACKUP

Unable to access internet through Wifi after lollipop update

Guys,
I'm not able to access internet through my wifi network since 3 days after the lollipop update .. The wifi network is working fine as others are able to connect and access internet but for only me it's not working.
I tried soft resetting the phone by holding the power and volume down key for 10 secs and also cleared the cache partition but to no avail.
Someone please help me out to sort out this problem as I really need internet to connect to essential services on my mobile. Thanks in advance, appreciate your help!

Are you running a custom ROM or kernel?

I got the update notification and downloaded the update.

So you're running a stock ROM and kernel? Are you able to access your data network over 3g?

I'm not sure about these terms but I just got the official update. Yes, I'm able to access internet on mobile data.

Sounds to be like something went wrong during the update process.
I have a custom ROM on my phone and, if I use the wrong kernel with my custom ROM, wifi does not work.

No.. The weird thing is I took it to get it checked at a mobile shop. When he connected to his Wi-Fi it was able to access the internet. It's not working only for my Wi-Fi network it seems. He was saying it has to be formatted but I don't want to lose my data ?

Guys, as a last resort I have finally formatted my mobile and backed up settings. Now, it's not even defecting my Wi-Fi network. And as said earlier, I'm able to connect and access internet on my other devices. This is really confusing I'm not able to figure out what's wrong. Many of my friends who have Moto G are also facing this same problem. I hope there's an upcoming update from Motorola to fix this issue asap. ?

Change channel
Change your wifi channel from your routrer settings page to under 12 wifi will work . Use channels 1-11 for lollipop roms .

I faced same issue few days ago..
Possible solution (try all one by one)
Switch encryption mode in wifi router (TKIP <=> AES)
Change name of wifi (Don't use space)
Change security type (WEP <=> WPA <=> WPA2)
After each step restart router and check if you can still connect.
Worked for me
Also check channel as mentioned by @ankushv ... AFAIK channel between 1-11 is must for most android phones

Thanks for your reply. When I checked my phone later sometime it showed my Wi-Fi network and I immediately connected it. But it works sometimes and doesn't at other. I hope google engineers are aware of this Wi-Fi issue and going to release a patch update soon.

Wifi Problem since flashing to Android 7.0

Hello everyone,
I've done the Nougat update yesterday with Odin and everything works fine with except of a small WiFi Bug.
I am connected to my local Wifi and it works pretty fine on the phone but the WiFi Symbol in the top bar always shows a small sign. If i check my WiFi under settings it says "Connection established but no internet connection could be made" since i've got a connection through WiFi on my phone this is a lie. I've already restarted the phone and cleared the cash but this didn't help.
I would really appreciate any kind of help for my little problem.
Thank you.

I don't understand this hype of upgrading as fast as possible to next version of Android.Ok it has some improvements but let it settle.
About the Wi-fi bug , you can root the phone and install superstock kernel that fixed it somehow or downgrade to MM again and wait

A simple router restart fixed the problem for me
Thanks anyway.

factory reset or just turn off the router ?

i have the same issue i did every thing please help !!!
i can't connect to any WiFi after update to android 7 officially
it united arab emirates version

I kept losing wifi connectivity (S7 Edge, Nougat). Told phone to Forget network, switched off router for full minute and then reconnected - password re-entry required of course. No problems now for past 5 days. Am in Spain.
