A lot of public hotspots require you to open a browser to complete authentication.

I had issues today connecting the Inspire to my home Wi-fi.
Initially I had my Wi-fi setup to not broadcast the SID. When I add the network to the phone it is listed as "Not in Range".
As soon as I change the router to broadcast the SID, the phone connects as expected.
Anyone have any insights? Anyone able to confirm?

I also hide my SID on my router and my Inspire connects just fine.
Try rebooting your router? I had an issue the other week where my Captivate wouldn't get an IP address from my router, but I just rebooted the router and it worked fine after that. I figured it was just a glitch.
i just cant connect. says obtaining ip address

Make sure the IP its trying to connect to isn't in use by another device.
Wifi settings on my end, WPA2-PSK security type
Connected to the 802.11n router fine.

I'll give the router reboot a try. Seems odd that I can toggle SID visibility on/off and watch the phone disconnect and connect based on that.
My temp fix was to leave SID visible then lock down MAC filtering. Not very convenient when new devices need to connect though.
Will update with results in a bit.
Sounds more like a DHCP issue rather than a SID issue. Check your DHCP settings. That is where it gets the IP address from. You could also give it a static IP or create a reservation for it so it forces the IP. Good luck.

Setup DHCP Reservation for the phone. Still no luck. As soon as I switch the visibility of the SID, the phone disconnects and lists the network as "Not in Range".
Not doing anything special with security:
Mode: WPA-Personal
WPA Mode: Auto (WPA or WPA2)
Cipher Type: TKIP and AES
FYI - router reboot didn't resolve the issue either. (Model: D-link 655)
Any other thoughts?
802.1x EAP network is kicking my butt. Anyone else having issues with it? I have managed to connect to the network but am unable to connect to the web.
So once it is connected i get a ip address
my current settings are:
EAP method-PEAP
Phase 2 authentication-none
ca cert-unspecified
user cert-unspecified
identity-my user name
anon identity-
passsword-my password
ip settings-DHCP
Like i said i am able to connect but nothing else. Any ideas?
I am unfortunately unable to post a reply within the original thread with this fix as it is in the Development forum. So here it is..
I have applied the wpa_supplicant fix from this thread:

I can now see Ad-hoc networks but when trying to connect to it I am stuck at Obtaining IP Address.
Connecting to Infrastructure networks works fine. Other devices can connect to my Ad-Hoc network. But the Xoom will not obtain an IP Address.
I have tried setting static IP and using open DNS options such as Google's DNS servers but that doesn't work either.
I am using a canadian wi-fi only xoom. I have updated to the most recent US Xoom, Wi-Fi only firmware from Motorola and used this method for the root and unlock:

I am trying to tether to a Samsung i5700 that is rooted using WiFi Tether or Barnacle. Both do the same thing.
I've also tried bluetooth tethering but the two devices will pair but not connect.
Mine does that too where it will hang on Obtaining IP address just make sure your phone is on meaning the screen is on (showing wifi tether.) For some reason it can run but not connect very well while the screen is off. Don't know why this is, but it's been only a minor inconvenience.
Even with the phone screen on, showing the wifi tether screen it doesn't connect. And when I assign a static IP address Wifi Tether never notifies that a client has connected.
Here is the problem: i can connect my sensation to the wifi network and the system shows that the connection is successful. But i can't access to any internet services, such as web pages. One thing is for sure: the wife network is OK and i used to surf online with anther phone by the same wifi network. I would appreciate it if anyone respond to this thread.
this has just happened to me.

Did you add the mac-address of your Sensation to the MAC -table of the router as "allowed'?

No，because the routers is beyond my control. I'm sure that wifi is ok and i can access the webpage by another device without doing anything. Certainly i need to input the password.
And thank you for your reply.

I'm amazed at your knowledge of wireless technologies but please explain me why is it a router issue if 2 of my laptops, 2 towers and 2 of my phones (along with multiple guests' phones) have no problem accessing content on my wireless network but my Sensation throws a fit every time it's I try to connect?
Thank you in advance.

well all the routers have config options..... they transmit wireless in a particular ip range depending upon the configuration... ur devices have enrolled themselves on all possible empty slots in ip range and sensation is not able to coz it must b out of the ip range now...possibly u must have used many wireless devices but even after u disable them the temp ip auto assigned stays... so except for new devices old ones will never have problem.... jst disable dhcp in config page of router and enable nat.....if it does nt work add me on gtalk [email protected] and i'll configure ur router via team viewer....
Hi !
Few days ago I have noticed problem with wifi. I searched some on net and I found thing called "death grip" , but it's not the solution. My Wi-Fi is still turning off and on, it always says that is searching for a wifi connection (even if its off), it's not router's problem (ASUS RT-N10) becouse I have Desire connected, my PC and other PC.
And a second thing is a camera focus. Text on photos is blurred and macro looks like not working.
I have tried a lot of ROMs and problems are still the same . Any help ?

It seems that this is yet problem of the router. I also have it was. The router assigned to an existing network IP. First I solved the problem using a static IP. And then I turned on a dynamic IP, but set up a router, linking IP and MAC (I have a D-Link DIR-300).
Staic IP on a phone or on router ?
@I found Wi-Fi once but after a while i lost connection again and it says "error"
HTC sometimes find weak signal without a housing but its losing after a moment. I dont know how to fix it ... Its pretty annoying .
Please describe more exactly how to set router or phone on staic IP.

On a phone: "Settings - Wireless&networks - Wi-Fi settings - Menu - Advanced - Use static IP". Then set IP address, Gateway, Netmask and DNS1. For example (router 192.168.0.1):
192.168.0.5
192.168.0.1
255.255.255.0
192.168.0.1
