Hi everybody,
I have upgraded my Samsung Galaxy tab 2.7 to Android 4.0.4, but I can't connect to my home network anymore.
My tablet isn't rooted or anything.
Can I root it to fix the problem en where can I get those links?
Thanks.
Johanna
Not sure if rooting your device will fix the issue but this link will show you how to root.

I read those instr5uctions, but what does step 8 mean?
8. Connect your Tab
Connect to what?
Sorry for the stupid question.
Johanna
Plug the usb/charger cable into your pc that is running kies
You may want to listen to Sean's advice..(will rooting fix your problem?)
What else to connect again?
If rooting doesnt fix the connection problems what can I do then? Wait for a fix by Samsung?
Seems ridiculous.
Johanna
Rooting your tab & installing CWM would allow you to install a custom ROM
That is those actions alone would probably not fix your WIFI issues but installing a new ROM on your tab might.
I would suggest 1st trying to do a factory data reset. (found in settings backup and reset)
If that does not work you could then contact Samsung support online. You can find that option from going to the support section on the Samsung home page and following the instructions.

Ok thanks! I will try that.
But if I decide to root, do I have to install a new ROM on my tab then afterwards? And which one?

Sometimes if you reboot your wifi router helps too. This is not the most reliable device when it comes to wifi.

I did that already and that didn't help.
My Samsung Galaxy S2 also didn't see the network anymore. I created a guest account on the router and then my Samsung Galaxy S2 did recognise that guest account.
But my Tab 2.7 still sees nothing. It shows networks from people in my neighbourhood though.
So I guess you are right, it could have something to do with my router.
But I have no clue how to solve that.
I will try and get some help from Dlink.
Johanna
Turn off the wifi on the tab and turn it back on. I have the p3100 and it is quite bit of a pain when it come to switch from wifi-3g-wifi.
Not successfull

Tried that, but that didin't help.
I contacted the Dlink customer service and they couldn't figure out what is wrong. The router is working, so it is a problem between the update from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 on my tablet and the router. The customer service is trying to find out what the solution could be and they are getting back to me.
I will let you know.
Johanna
Solved!
Ok it is solved!
The Dlink customerservice contacted Samsung in Taiwan and it was an issue with the preshared key in the router.
So I changed that key and changed the mode to WPA only and now my tablet sees the network again and I can connect.
Yesss!

Cool , glad it got sorted ! :victory:

My Asus Transformer can‘t connect to any wifi network. Yesterday it was not any problem with it but today it does not connect.
Can anyone help me what to do?
Delete connection and setup again.
Does other devices connect?
i had this issue before:
i rebooted my router and it worked. maybe it will help you too?
Thanks for the reply. I already deleted all the connections and still it didnt work.
Two mobile phones are connected at the same wifi, and they work properly.
what rom are you using?
maybe you need to re-flash that?
I seem to have a problem with my WiFi after every firmware update...after every firmware update I've received it breaks my WiFi..It will stay connected for like 15-20 secs then disconnect then reconnect. Annoying. Previously, all I had to do is do a factory reset and all was fixed but this most recent update.. problem wasn't fixed after a factory reset...Any ideas?

Hi guys,
it is my first post on XDA forums, even if I use tons of advices/ROMs/kernels for Atrix, Mini Pro, SII, SIII, Tab 7.7, TG300.... :silly:
Activity of the XDA community is my first check before trying a new device!
I currently meet a strange problem on my tf300TG. The wifi cause freeze and force reboot everytime I use it.
Hopefully it is a TG so I can use 3G data and it works nicely. Now, I want to play more "huge" games and I have to spend my data to download it because my wifi is completly broke.
I am on JB. I try without root, without recovery... I fix permissions, wipe all data, do factory reset, flash, reflash firmware... nothing seems to works.
Do you think I can try to flash firmware for 300T just or test the wifi and come back to TG after that? If yes and if the wifi works better with T firmware, someone could help me to flash the wifi part of T only on my TG?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my poor english, not my natural language
Nov.
I have the same problem in my TF300T. I don't know how can I solve this problem. I tried a Factory Reset from "Settings" but doesn't work.
The tablet normally restart while is locked.
Thank you!

Apparently it's a problem with JB.
The better solution for you, it's to contact ASUS for an exchange... and when you will receive your new tab, don't go on JB, just stay on ICS
You're not alone => Census TF300TG / TL 3G failed
Peace be unto you all. I tried activating or turning on the bluetooth on my note 10.1 but up to now, it still can't come on.
any time I try to activate it, it acts as if it is about to be activated but it always go back to the deactivated mode.
I even reset the system but still no luck.
I also updated the os to jelly bean but still no luck.
the device is a wifi plus 3G model
GT-N8000
I will be very happy if anyone give me an advice on how to fix this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Ok, are you on stock FW? If not, which one do you have?
Is your N8000 rooted?
If so, try to flash another modem.

I did a factory reset from setting again and also manually did a hard reset from recovery mode but the bluetooth still doesn't want to come on.
I went to SETTING, ABOUT and STATUS and I saw an available mac address for wi-fi but the bluetooth mac address was Unavailable.

So, after I flashed Cyanogenmod 10.1.3 for my Tab 2, it cannot connect to my wifi. I flashed it with the proper procedures, like wiping Data and Dalvik cache, I've installed the Nightly builds to try to eliminate the problem and they kept crashing, so I reverted back to 10.1.3 and still no connection. I've reset my router and made sure that my password was right. Now I have no clue what to do next
Forgive me if this is in the wrong place, I've just signed up today.

Have you tried other ROMs? I've never had any problems connecting to WiFi networks on my p3100 running CM11. I have that issue too on my Ideos X6 phone, but only sometimes, which I think is caused by cheap hardware anyway.

Charge your tab to aprox 70% or more and Try this:
1-download a STOCK firmware file from the internet for your region( the region thing is not necessary, but just for the sake of it )
2- boot into recovery
3- wipe data/flactory reset
4- wipe cache
5-wipe dalvik
6-format /system
7- boot into download mode and flash the STOCK firmware file using ODIN.
i am assuming you have used ODIN before in this case... if you have not, then:
1-download ODIN ( http://samsung-updates.com/Odin307.zip )
2-make sure you have the correct drivers installed
3-connect the device ( in the text box, it should say added)
4- click on the pda option and select the firmware file ( make sure ONLY auto reboot and F.reset time are checked )
5- click on START button to flash the file.

I don't think its a ROM related issue. There must be some issue with your router itself... try resetting your router and change WPA/WPA2 password once...and reconnect again with new password. give me a feedback so that i can help you further.

I reset my router, disabled TKIP encryption and disabled the MAC filter. I live in a house with 5 people so i don't think they would be happy with me doing anything else with the router. I'll try again at my friend's place and see if i can connect to his WEP connection.

I don't think you would be able to connect to WEP networks..as android versions >2.3.7 does not have access to those networks by default....but you can give that a shot.

I also changed the my encryption from WPA to WPA2 and used Wifi Manager from an apk. The one from here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.kman.WifiManager
It came in a apk that i moved to my tablet to install. Still doesn't work.
I'm losing hope.
I am having the same issue for about a week now. It does not appear to be router related, or software related either.
We have two P3113 tablets in the house, and when mine went wonky - set my daughter's with same software and her's connects without issue.
Rooted, not rooted, stock recovery or custom. Stock software from 4.0.4 to 4.2.2 and custom ROM's as well. Currently running CM 11 on both. One connects while the other does not
I think it may be hardware related

Your problem might be related to duplicated mac addreses. Could you check if both tabs have different mac addresses.
This also counts for all others, check if there are no other devices with the same mac.
When I was building CM for both my Xperia L & Tab, they both got the same mac address because they where build on tbe same host.

Mac addresses are different. There is an issue with the IP address on the one that does not connect. It is blank by default, and manually inputting the address does not help

Hi!
Have you got Passpoint running?
This might be a totally different issue but if a factory reset or reflashing doesn´t help you might try looking here.

I have the same effect!
A full reset won't fix this problem. I contacted Samsung support and the said that I should send them the tablet.
A reset usually isn't sufficient, you need to reflash the firmware.
I fully reset the tablet about 4 times and it suddenly works.
Hi all!
I have exactly the same issue.... I just updated my Note Pro LTE (unrooted) to the latest firmware and I also do not have access to wifi.
Could you please help me? I read in this thread that by reflashing might solve the issue, but since I am not so experienced with that stuff on Android (hence the reason I never rooted), could you please provide detail instructions what exactly I have to do?
Thanks a lot for your great help!

I eventually made a factory reset and after everything was finalized, wifi was running again fine. All my apps from play store were installed again automatically and everything seemed to run properly!
However, when I woke up this morning, unfortunately the same issue was present. No network connectivity and all available wifi networks were marked 'not in range'!!
Thus, it seems that factory reset does not solve the problem... Therefore I searched on google how to reflash my tablet. This is the link that I found:
http://androidcentral.us/2014/02/how-to-flash-firmware-using-odin-samsung-devices/
Could you please confirm whether this is the procedure I should follow? If yes, which update should I use? The latest or the previous one, i.e. P905XXUANH3 or P905XXUANC3?
Also, will Knox be tripped if I flash the firmware?
Thanks a lot for your help and I look forward to your responses!
