It's the first time this has happened, but for some reason I can't connect to wifi networks.
Every time I try to it connects to the network for 1 or 2 seconds and then it gets disabled.
I'm on stock rom.
The only thing that has fixed this is rebooting but eventually it will happen again.
Any ideas?

I'm getting similar behaviour on a wifi only GT-P6810 (Galaxy tab 7.7,bought on honeycomb & upgraded to ics). Worked fine at home & fails on holiday. Worked a few times now doesn't pretend to connect, doesn't even show the network unless I turn wifi off & on. Also, when I first switch to wifi settings it bounces off & on a few times without my touching it!

I'm having a problem that I can't seem to find a solution to anywhere.
I have an HTC Aria running 2.2 (I didn't do the OTA update. I flashed it myself) which is giving me connection problems if both WiFi and 3G are active at the same time. It only started happening after I updated from 2.1 to 2.2.
WiFi off, 3G on: I can use the web browser and all my apps that require internet access without a problem
WiFi on (and connected), 3G off (Airplane Mode) Same thing. No problems.
WiFi on (and Connected), 3G on: All of a sudden, I can only access the internet from certain apps. The Facebook app works fine as does the HTC Weather widget and shopkick. However, the web browser just hangs without loading pages, xkcdViewer throws me an error saying it can't connect to the server and the TD Bank app doesn't load.
I've been playing around with different settings and nothing seems to work. I found a temporary solution by going to Wireless & networks > Mobile networks > Access Point Names and resetting those to default, though that only lasted for about 10 minutes before the problem started again.
Also, when I was running on 2.1 the Market would always force the use of my 3G connection even if I was connected to a WiFi network. The only way to bypass this would be to put the phone into Airplane Mode and then turn WiFi back on. Now, on 2.2, the Market forces 3G, but only for a couple of seconds then switches back to WiFi, but I've noticed that sometimes the 3G connection remains active even after closing the Market.
Any suggestions? Was it just a bad flash of the ROM?
I seem to have fixed it.
I turned off my phone, removed the SIM card and booted it up. I connected to my WiFi and used the phone normally for a couple minutes. Then I turned it off again, replaced the SIM card and rebooted.
It seems to be working fine now. Hopefully it stays that way.

sometimes it works... sometimes it doesn't... the same router on which other devices work perfectly fine... so its not a router issue...
anyone else had issues with wifi connection on the atrix... a minute ago it was showing as connected but it wasn't working so i had to turn it off on the phone and connect again
help!
Mine did this for a while it would list wifi as connected but the phone did not have a internet connection. Changing the channel on the router to 9 as well as changing the password and resetting the router fixed the problem.

Weird Probllems with With WiFi and Data
Heres whats going on... I go into the same Starbucks I frequent, the Hotspots login Fails, it state it cant determine my eligibility, call customer service.... Then I get the :No Data Connection:, and then I get the ISP Orange Triangle your password/Authorization failed, the Icons wifi, 4G and Netwoork are Blue, white white.
I switch to email, and all 3 icons are now white, I open Market, it states no connection retry.
I reboot power off/on the phone and voila, The Phone comes up, logs into Hotspots and all 3 icons are blue,
This back and forth game is repeated all the time, at Starbucks, at home, ect.
Can anyone tell me exactly whats going on and how to fix it,
@Clouded - before it took me a while before my phone auto connects but after a power outage the router shutdown and went back up again after the power outage. Guess what - Now my phone connects automatically without problem ^_^ I know my router works well but I guess a quick power cycle of router will help.
thanks folks - i'm going to try both the solutions provided. reboot wlan router & check the wifi sleep setting...
will post how it goes later...
I have an Atrix 2. It has been replaced twice by AT&T due to this problem. I have factory reset each phone and tried every battery mode, data saver, sleep policy and wifi channel.
The problem:
The wifi turns off by itself! not sleep, off! As in the checked box is unchecked. The phone does it during use and when not being used. The timing between instances is random. The wifi sometimes stays on for hours. Other times it wont last five minutes. I have 4 other wifi devices connected by wifi to my secured router.
Note: I travel across the country for work and the problem occurs at airports, hotels, mcdonalds, ect.
I have called Motorola and their only option is to send it to the with no replacement. I could use some help. I have been searching online and others with this problem dont persist, they simply state that unsecuring their router fixed the problem. That is not an option for me as the routers are not mine.
Any input will be greatly appreciated.
Hi, I recently noticed this problem started after I installed the ATT Smart Wi-FI app. Mine will connect then turn off, wait a second turn back on then I get the WIFI networks avail message and I check it and it's not connecting to the network til I tell it too then it will stay connected all day.
I"ve had my atrix 2 for about a little over a month. It's doing the same thing. Wifi will randomly shut off. I have to go into the settings to turn it back on. It will work fine for a little while then just shuts off again. Does anyone know if this seems to be hardware or software related. I've tried different apps and WiFi sleep settings to no avail. I really like the atrix but this is kind of annoying.
I have the same issue also, except I have top reboot my phone for wifi to work again.

i have the same problem, it's not my wifi connection, but the actual wifi setting turns off whenever i turn off my screen and yes, i've set the wifi sleep policy to "never", so that's not the problem. i've also tried "never when plugged in" and "when screen turns off" and i still get the same problem. i was thinking about going to at&t and asking them about it but decided to come here first.
(a white iphone 4 is looking better and better ) can anyone help?
I had this problem but after I disabled the power saver option under battery and data (set it back to performance) it went away and Wi-Fi works perfect.
Tried different battery saver settings as well, nothing changed.

Hello, i have a i9023, root, stock JB. At home i leave the nexus phone on and keep connection with my home wifi-network. The phone showes a blue wifi and radio signal. When i leave home and take a look at the screen, there is the radio-signal in grey and i get no Internet connection (....no,it is not turned off in the settings and i am not in "no data/roaming/only 2g" - mode....). Sometimes it helps, to switch to flightmode and back but most oft the time i have to switch wifi manualy off and reboot to get a blue radiosignal......and sometimes eaven that will not give me a blue signal- but i know that my provider has the area coverd verry good. This issue showed up without external manipulation. .....any ideas......??????

Can't leave home w/o it!
hi! Have sprint L-720 & have similar problem. wifi & cellular work @ home . Go out 2 car & both stop. Have tried switching roms, flashing modem, flashing back 2 stock. Nothing works. No one seems 2 have an answer 4 situation. Currently have kitkat 4.4.4. Tried CM 12 & Lollipop & that's wen the proverbial S^#t hit the fan!
My wifes T-Mobile Z3 will randomly just stop loading pages on WiFi. The only way to fix it is to turn WiFi off, and then back on. This seems to happen on multiple WiFi networks.
My HTC m8 used to do that. I had to turn off wifi optimization under the wifi advanced settings and that fixed it.
