i've just installe the ics update on my sensation 4.0
never rooted my phone.
i used to use WIFI STATIC. removed it.
my router uses static IP.
i've configured everything properly.
the device connects to the router, but no internet connection.
i can browse to the router's administration page with no problem, but cannot go further out to the internet.
nothing in my network changed beside the upgrade to ICS.
if disabling wifi and working on 3g - everything works ok.
all other computers in the network, including another htc desirehd work without a problem.
need some help...
Also I have the same bug my sensation can't access wifi internet after ota update to ics

i used static ips in my home network.
only changing the router to work with DHCP and the same on the sensation xe seems to solve this problem.
i just started the DHCP at xx.xx.xx.230 and all my other computers in the lan which use a static ip, continue to use their static definition

that's the problem musa91 ... i also got htc sensation and just updated it to ICS from HTC yesterday .. and the option for static IP is gone after updating .. i can't find it any where and i can't use automatic IP since it'll cause me problems with other static IP deveices "NAS, Laptop, etc..." so how can we add static IP now?

Great that you fixed it may_east & kyger!
I just wanted to add that if you still have problems try changing to static IP and use this tutorial:

When you fill in the fields under advanced menu you must fill in ALL the fields in one stroke else your connection might not work!

Any one know how to reset ur wire less setting. Im haveing a ip address conflic I guess at work. Wont pull any internet . Problem is I have no way of changing it on work computer. So I need a diff ip adress.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I would think turning it off and back on should do it...Should grab a new ip address..that or statically map one. The DHCP server should be checking for an ip before giving you one so I think that just turning it off and on should fix it.
Tried that and tried forgetting but same ip .105.

Maybe try removing the network and adding it again will help.

Ok stilk no luck. Downloaded wifi static from market to change ip address and stil no luck. Either I don't know how to use the app or phones messed up on this router.
But I have the exact same router and can connect fine at home.8.8mbs at home
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Well..the DHCP has the ip associated with your MAC address so everytime you turn on the wireless it asks the dhcp server for an address and the dhcp says..o hey I have one here already for you. If you turn off the wireless can you still ping the address? If so then the dchp may be set up wrong and not checking for dupes before giving the address out.
How would I ping my phone?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
O sorry no..I meant turn off the wireless on the phoine the go to a computer and ping the address from there. But..if you said it was a duplicate ip address ill just take your word. No idea then.
To the OP,
What's happening to your device? Are you able to successfully connect to your WiFi but not get any Internet data (browse the web, search YouTube, or use any programs that require internet)? Are you getting an error message saying there is a conflict?
This happened to me yesterday. While I didn't get any error messages, my Cap's WiFi was able to connect to my company's wireless router. However, I could not get online, search YouTube, update my Daily Briefing or use any programs that require the internet. It says it's connected however I'm not getting any internet data. I touch "Forget" and try again several times. I even did a factory reset and still no-go. I called Samsung and they put me through Level 2 Support. While waiting on the phone with the tech, it finally worked for no reason. I was dumbfounded with the tech. Weird!!!
Addendum: When I couldn't connect to my company's WiFi with WPA/WPA2 PSK, I went to another office to connect to an unsecured WiFi. It worked. I got on the internet. My WiFi with WEP at home works. However, the problem was with my company's WPA/WPA2 PSK security WiFi. I'm not sure if the security has something to do with the issue.
got it solved..seems I wasent using the wifistatic program correctly.
Also no security at work just open connection.
If some one needs the steps I used I can post later when I get home.

Please post your steps. This would be very useful. I am having similar problems at work wifi and I dont think it is the Captivate that has the issue.
Srry had stuff come up yesterday.
Any way download wifistatic from market. Make sure ur are seeing a access. Open wifi static and add config. It will set all settings. After it sets settings chang ip address number to a higher number like.120. Save it. Then go to ur phone wifi settings and hit the menu button and select advanced. Go in there and make sure the ip address u wanted and click save..
If it dont work after this then its not a ip address conflic..
Srry typing from phone.

any info would be appreciated.

sounds more like a router problem to me than a phone problem,try connecting it to a diff network.does the same happen?
What router are you using? Sounds like a router issue to me.
First thing to try is always a router power cycle. They can occasionally go nuts. Unplug for 30 seconds.
Second thing to try, log onto your router, and see what wifi protocols are set to. If it's set to B/G/N combined, try setting to G/N. (assuming you are not using B anymore!) If not using B or N, set it to G.
Third thing to try, disable Wireless Multimedia Extensions (WMM). Not sure where it'll be in you're router.

Have another thing to try...
You might not picking up gateway information from the router. The solution could be to configure a static IP address instead of using DHCP.
To do this do the following:
Go into Settings, then ‘Wireless & networks’ then ‘Wi-Fi settings’ then press 'menu' and select 'advanced', scroll down and select the 'static ip' box.
In the ‘IP address’ box enter the same IP address which is shown higher up the same form.
In the ‘Gateway’ box you will need to put the IP address of your router. To find this out I opened a command prompt window on a PC on the same network and typed ipconfig. This will give you a Default gateway address which is what you need.
In the the ‘Network prefix length’ box put 24 (this assumes the subnet mask from ipconfig is 255.255.255.0)
Finally in the DNS 1 box put the same IP you put in the Gateway box.
Now click Save, disconnect and reconnect from the network and when you are reconnected you should have internet access.

Erm, guys - you jumped in at the deep end, surely a restart is the first thing that should be tried.
A) Restart router
B) If not fixed, restart phone
C) Do what the above say
i have already done a power cycle on my phone and router..
i tried to set up astatic ip but now whenever i try to connect it says disconnected after trying to obtain ip address
help please....excuse my ignorance if i missed anyhting

Wifi problem in atrix 2 is very well known . I know cwm9 dev is in progress. So is there a way to install to replace the stock module/drive with cwm9 driver.
Or any goddamm way to resolve this wifi problem.
I am really frustated . This is my second replacement and I don't feel like sending it back.
I have had my a2 for about 2 months and no wifi problems here. It connects quickly and stays connected.

Not sure how "well known" this problem is. I have had my A2 since Nov 2011 and it has always connected to wifi without problem. Not disagreeing with you, just saying my experience with wifi is different.

just google for atrix 2 wifi problems ..
well i changed my wifi security to wpa2 .. and there has been some relief ..
the problem is still there .. but no frequent ..
I have solve the problem. What i did was just set the IP address for the Atrix 2 to static, instead of dynamic.
Hope this works for you guys.

This is what I did as well. Make sure and scroll down in the advanced wifi settings page to include the DNS and netmask numbers as well as gateway.

Gingerbread didn't always play nice with dhcp, hence the reason a static ip helps resolve the problem. Another solution you can try is to check the lease time for issued ip addresses. Some devices running gingerbread had issues with infinite leases, so the solution was to simply change the setting on your router to renew leases. As long as the lease isn't set to "forever" any other value will work. Just wanted to put that out there for those who have trouble with intermittent wifi.
i have made extensive RnD on my phone .. from lease times to assigning static ip's .. nothing works .. most people won't notice disconnection when using static ips because it does'nt disconnect so frequently . you will notice when you make a 20 min video call...
I am thinking of installing supercharged rom .. what do you guys think .. can it solve the problem .. or since it is another gingerbread the problem will persist. ?

Most likely the dns address will be the same as your default gateway. An easy way to check is open a cmd prompt on your pc and type "ipconfig" and you'll see the default gateway, dns server, and subnet mask for your connected adapter. Just use the same settings, but give your phone a unique ip address.
Example
Default Gateway - 192.168.1.1
Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0
DNS Server - 192.168.1.1
IP Address - 192.168.1.101 < the last 3 octets need to be unique or else you'll have an ip conflict.
Just saw this post separately & have posted my resolution experience for wifi router Ubiquiti Power ApN. Check for posts under my signature y'all for this one!!
My phone keeps cycling obtaining IP address without ever getting one on my home network. It has previously worked fine on my home network for a little over a month now and the problem suddenly started yesterday. No other devices on my WiFi network has the problem. Phone and router were rebooted, problem continues.
Any ideas?

I've found this happens too intermittently. It's a real pain. happened on a number of different custom ROMs.
other times it will say the network isn't in range, even though I know it is.

Depends on your network
DNS you get from your ISP, check router for it.
Prefix should be 24
IP whatever you set in the router ie 192.168.1.125
Gateway is whatever your router is ie 192.168.1.1
Google setting up static ip network it will help explain it and over at ddwrt they have pictures to help... very easy stuff. PM if you want/need help

You can try to turn off auto-DLNA..
It may causing device to configured itself under private ip range..
Same problem. Using stock rom. Tried static ip but not works.
This problem is a software problem? Or hardware?
This doesn't apply to my device now but on my previous HTC this would happen quite frequently I think it's more of a software bug then firmware it would seem that the drivers for the antenna are hit or miss

I had this issue and my phone wouldn't connect to any router "obtaining ip address" forever. Mind you my phone was 5days old, so took it right back to Rogers for a new exchange. My HOX is now perfect and connects to all wifi without issues.
Did you possibly enter the wrong spa password, then re enter it correctly and now you are having this problem?
If so, try this ... works on most Androids.
Click where it says obtaining IP address, the press "Forget"
Turn off Wifi.
Go Into Hone Settings > Power and disable Fast Boot.
Now power off the phone ...not restart.
Leave the phone off six minutes and not a moment less.
Then power up and try again.
Be careful to enter your wpa password correctly on the first try.
If still same problem try rebooting router.
Also consider installing SmartSync Disabler which can be found here on xda and at the google play store.
That app should solve the remaking wifi annoyance affecting these one x phones
the employer blocked the WIFI from employees (obtaining the ip address issue)
we cant access the WIFI in the hotel at where we work and although there are a password you put at the hotel's WIFI website but they did something lately to all of us and it is when any of the staff open the WIFI on his mobile it just keep showing obtaining IP address and no result so if you guys could help me in this and do i have to get a new phone or to try hiding my IP i tried a lot of apps but no way plz help
Hello. I have some problem with Wi-Fi after flashing [07 OCT 12]CM10. When I'm trying to search any Wi-Fi networks it just stuck on "Searching for WiFi networks..." and nothing happens. I tried to flash CM10 again with full wipes, but nothing changed. S-OFF, HBOOT 7.00.1002, Radio 20.76.30.0835U_3831.19.00.110, [07 OCT 12]CM10.
Sorry for bad English.
I have had the same issue, and, apparently, it is caused by some routers like d-link and Linksys. I have resolved by specifying a static IP address and DNS. I hope it will work for you too.
