Hi, I hope somebody can help me out. I have been unable to connect online for about a month now to my wifi. When I select the connection, it shows me full bars on the settings page but nothing afterwards.
I have no trouble connecting other devices to my wifi & right now it's just an expensive paperweight. I have no problems tethering with my phone & when I'm at the library with my pad, there are no problems connecting.
Nothing is customized & I'm on 4.2

I would try to disable password on your router and see if your tablet will connect then. If it does you might need to change the encryption on your router. Check what it is. If its WEP then change it to WPA2. Wifi doesn't have the best standards that are always followed by manufacturers and as a result sometimes things just won't connect.

I have to reboot my router after changing ROMS sometimes . Have you tried rebooting the router or maybe even resting it?

That most definitely has to do with your router. Check if you can connect to another device that has uses wifi (Xbox, iPod touch, TV, laptop) & if the wifi is working fine there. It could also be that you put in the wrong password for the wifi on your tablet, & it is reading the connection, but not actually connected.

Hi, thank you for the suggestion. I changed the security from WEP to WPA2 & I was able to reconnect my tablet with no problems.

Running the latest tiamat rom on a UK wifi zoom. The wireless seems a bit random and keeps losing the connection. Any advice?

Highlight the connected network and, modify network. Change it from DHCP or whatever it is, to static. It'll solve the connection problems. No more endless YouTube buffering, failed market downloads, etc. I had the same problem at first. Let me know your progress.

Using a static ip works for me too!
Any tips on making the Wifi in the Xoom pick up at a higher range?

Probably broadcasting on a channel which Android has disabled for your country. Switch to a channel between 1 and 12 on your router, may need to take off auto. An app like Wifi Analyzer should be able to see the network no problems.
Its on channel 11. My old was on 11 too but it worked...

Make sure you have set your router to use the 2.4GHz band, not 5GHz.
It is set to 2.4 ghz and wifi analyzer cant see it

Be sure your router was configured to WPA/WPA2 security,not WEP,and that the router is visible (Wireless SSID : ON) .

I previously used my phone as a wifi hotspot when I had a prime. The infinity sees the wifi and pretends to connect but the bars in the indicator stay grey instead of blue. Thus no internet. What am I doing wrong?
Nevermind I figured it out

I have a similar issue. Would love to know the resolution, but maybe someone can help.
My phone is a rooted EVO 4G LTE with WiFi Tether and profile is set to generic ICS. Infitity recognizes and attempts to obtain IP from the phone but it just stops there. It also shows a very weak signal when its trying to connect even though the phone is next to my tablet. When its not trying to connect it shows a very strong signal.
Any suggestions?

When I tether my Tf700 to my SGS2, it will take a little while for the WiFi icon to turn blue. Mind you, the icon turning blue is not a representation of the connection having been established per se, but it signals having a (syncing) connection to Google's servers. Sometimes, I can browse the web and download all kinds of stuff while the icon is still green. After a while (and mostly after a crapload of mails and Whatsapp messages and the like have come in), the icon (finally) turns blue.

Did you make it discoverable on both devices? Try connecting after that. You should try tethering using BT. Saves more on battery for your phone.

I've had that issue before. Try changing your SSID and Password on the hotspot provider (phone) and it should work. May take a few tries.

Hi,
Wasn't quite sure where to put the question so mods, feel free to move.
So I use Bluetooth tether to connect my TF700T to my HTC One X and this works really well. The only drawback is having to keep going into settings to connect.
I would like a widget on the home screen where I can just click to connect. I have tried a few from Play Store but I can't seem to get any to work.
I currently have Smart Bluetooth Widget but each time I try connecting it fails.
Anyone know of any others that actually work?
Thanks.

This doesn't answer your specific question, but I personally use an app called Open Garden - allows for fully automated bluetooth tethering. If you tablet needs an internet connection and one doesn't exist, it will automatically tether to your phone via bluetooth using the Open Garden apps. Works really well...

Hi jtrosky,
Sorry for late reply and thanks for the info.
I tried OG a few days ago and couldn't get the devices to connect. Found some advice on the OG forum to leave the app running for a few hours and they should connect. I did this and the forgot about it. Then tonight, out of the blue I get a notification and when I looked it was OG connected.
I've been playing around turning BT on and off and restarting devices and still find they take ages to connect. I know there is a connection button in the OG app to force the connection but I may as well connect in Bluetooth settings as do that.
The other thing that concerns me about this app is that anyone else with this app and within Bluetooth or wifi range would automatically connect to the same 'mesh' network and be able to use my data plan, and me theirs of course.
If the app evolves and includes user settings to include/exclude other devices into the 'mesh' network and devices connecting becomes more instantaneous it may be more attractive.
I'll probably keep trying this out for a few more days but I would really like to find a quick connect button solution for tethering.
Thanks again.

That's strange - I use OpenGarden between my Nexus 7 and my HTC EVO 3G and it connects instantly, as soon as I enable bluetooth on my Nexus 7 (I leave bluetooth enabled on my HTC phone). I agree about that there is a lack of capabilities to "lock out" other users, although in practice, I've never had anyone else actually connect, so it's not an issue for me.
Let us know if you get OpenGarden working better - I use it quite a bit when eating lunch - works perfect every time... Good luck.

Try out FoxFi. It's in the market.

Thanks but its not the direction I was looking to go really.
My tablet tethers to my phone really well just using standard tethering features. I was just wanting a quicker way to do it then navigating to settings each time.
Anyway, fount a solution that fits perfectly. It called Bluetooth Shortcut and that is literally what it is.
The button is on my homepage which when clicked takes be directly to my list of paired devices in settings. So in two clicks I'm connected. Which is what I was trying to achieve.
Thanks for your inputs all the same.

Tablet can't seem to connect to wifi after doing the Flatline NVflash. Anyone has this issue? When nvflash was done, I reflashed TF700_10.6.1.14.10_WW_Boot_TWRP_2610 running on CROMi-X 5.0.3. Booted up to find out that wifi is not connecting. I even tried factory reset and restore my previous backup but still no luck. Don't know what else to do besides a fresh install of cromi, which I'm really trying to avoid.
I know that Flatline *uses* WiFi, but I see no reason how it could break it, at least across a reboot.
Reboot your tablet and post the output of lsmod and dmesg.
ok here's what came up after reboot

The log shows that the driver is loaded correctly, but WiFi is not turned on. What happens when you try to turn it on in Settings?

Or maybe airplane mode? if not it must be something on the router side.
Its on in settings but says "saved, secured with wpa/wpa2" with a blank wifi icon on status bar. Also nothing happens when I click connect. Airplane mode is off too

Well the wifi module is loading ok and wifi is scanning so there isn't an issue with the tablet. try tethering your EVOs connection to the tablet and see if it connects
Yes blank as in just an outline of the wifi icon, not greyed or color filled if it was connected with full reception

Forgetting connection/scan and reconnecting many times already with same results. Wifi direct on tab doesn't pick up my EVO but my EVO is able to pick up tab n connected successfully. I'm going to try uninstalling notification toggle bc that's the only thing on my tab from what I can tell that has access to network settings

Well just my luck....tried everything possible relating with wifi but still no connections. Guess I'll have to format sd and do a fresh install of cromi. Btw I'm on d2sd and if I were to wipe internal, does that delete the androidroot nvflash folder sitting in the internal memory?
