Hi everyone! I really need to help me with my wifi network problems. - General Questions and Answers

I have a Samsung galaxy s3. In our company has wifi signal very good but IT admin had configured with WEP mode so laptops can easy connect with wifi network, but there is any mobiles can connect with wifi network. But anyone who has HtC can connect with wifi. I have a friend, he has a HtC One, when he connect with network I see in configuration has Index selection, he chose number 3 and he can connect. But in my configuration wifi doesn't has Index selection so i can't connect with network. Who can help me. Please! I don't know why?

That's weird. Is there anything available on the logs on the router, if so there might be some useful information in them.
Are they all using the same network 802.11b or 802.11g or 802.11n ?
Are they all successfully authenticating to the router, assuming you have some authentication on ? If so you could, as a test, disable the authentication for a little and try that.
Have you searched for any known issues on that router ?
Just some thoughts. It's a weird one, good luck.

[Q] about internet connection

Hi so mainly im asking about a way to use the android wifi connection on my pc through usb like my phone is connected to a wifi and my pc have no wifi card so i use the usb to connect the phone with the pc and then i have connection so any ideas?

I think the tethering should work unless your service company charges for tethering
update: No it doesn't work. only runs network signal not wireless. Maybe there should be a way to do that.

This is impossible since the tethering uses 3g internet connection rather than wi-fi, since it is designed for situations when there is no wi-fi connection but there is cellular connection, and you want to browse the internet with your PC. good luck, i maybe wrong!

Same here.
I did install ICS 4 times (back to HC even) and had the same problem just like you said.
And CSC change from ZTO (Brazil) to KOR (Korea, I think) as Kies shows.
Tried WiFi Fixer from Google Play but no luck. Keep reseting wifi all the time.

it looks like no one have found a solution, i've been trying very hard to fix this issue but no use, still the same

I use WIFI Manager for now and it's working for me.

Could you tell us what is causing the problem?
Could be 3G band (900 or 850 MHZ "L" model) or who knows 2,5 or 5 GHz wifi ap's frequencies... I'd like to know the diagnosis
I have the same problem... :-(

That's not the problem, I think, because I have a brazilian model P6200L and it works great, wifi is fine, but some people with the same device are having this problem, I've told them to flash the baseband/modem from a brazilian FW and it still not working.
Same problem here in Malaysia. Wifi doesn't work at all for me and it is a big problem since wifi is my primary internet connection at home. When I switch wifi off and on again it detects my home wifi with full bars and when I try to connect it immediately goes Not In Range. I've tried wifi fixer but all it does is constantly resets my wifi which doesn't help at all. I need to downgrade again..

I saw someone commenting about using static ip to solve the problem. As in my house I have two routers and in all of them i did set static ips prior to ics i didn't get that wifi problem.
But using dhcp I can reproduce it.

Doesnt work with static ip. Flash again ics and doesnt work
Any solutions?

It seems that our ics version of tab is quite picky on the type of wifi router that it would connect. my temporary workaround is to have the wifi channel at the router fix to 1 channel instead of auto..my router is set to 1, seems to solve the wifi problem..you guys should try it..
Cheers

I did something similar, I changed the wireless region from Africa to Europe on my wifi router, it seems to help but my wireless stops working sometimes and then just reboots on its own.
I had similar problem with other device, so this thread helped me out:

Specific wifi problem... can't connect to school wifi

My note is functioning normally! I dont have any problems with connecting to wifi at home, friends' places and even public wifi at like tim hortons etc.
BUT it doesn't connect well to the wifi at my university... and it definitely isn't the problem with the wifi signal or anything as my phone (galaxy note) connects fine as well as my laptop etc... I am not sure how to solve this problem... let alone figuring out what exactly is wrong...
In order to sign into the school's wifi, one will need to put it an id and password.. its a WPA wireless network.
To be more precise, my note sometimes will be connected to the school wifi fine without any disconnection but very frequently (at least 75% of the time I open up my tablet at school) it will not be able to connect or sometimes disconnect stochastically. I will have to try turning my wifi on and off a few times and if that doesn't solve the problem (which is the case for most of the time) I try restarting my tablet.... most of the time if my tablet decides it doesn't want to connect, nothing seems to work! I will just have to try and connect to the wifi some other time.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Bumping with hopes of a reply.
More info: usually the error is authentication error or wrong password or just doesn't connect.... all the info inputted is correct

Your school Wi-Fi just sucks, it's unstable. Or you have on your note an app that uses an restricted protocol. As an example, a router can be set to drop any yahoo related connection. But most likely just an incompatibility between your note and the router.

Could it be a region area cause wifi networks of that size have a lot of different routers all over the place working together and each router can be programed individually to do certain things like drop as the previous post said yahoo related protocol for example so does it work in some areas and not others
I'm having this exact same problem at my school. The wifi will intermittent reconnect, and sometimes won't automatically connect when I enter the building, regardless of the signal strength. It will say "authentication error" sometimes when it doesn't auto connect. Often it will also reprompt for the WPA key even though the saved one is correct.
Wifi works flawlessly at home, work, and friend's houses, but has issues with the school's.

Had similar issues at my school, its not your tablet its the wifi generally the signal strength is bad and that's y i struggles to connects but works sometimes, i realised it was router and signal when even iphones had problems
I made a topic about this a while back. The success of connecting seems to depend on the proximity to the wireless base station and amount of other wifi devices. Even in the worst environments, if I go into settings and disable/enable wifi multiple times it will eventually connect. I get the authentication error fairly often and just ignore it, disabling/enabling until it connects successfully.
I think Samsung WiFi drivers just suck happens to me all the time if there ever a login to connect

Ask the IT administrator if there are any limitations. Show him that you can't use the Wi-Fi with your device, maybe he will be able to help you.

[Q] Using phone 3G connection on Tablet

HI,
I have a SGS3 phone. I can use my SGS3 3G connection on my laptop when there's no WIFI at my location.
Is it possible to do the same with the tablet? Cause the model I have is the WIFI only but would love to use my phone 3G connection.....
thnx
Why can't you do the same thing with the Note? It's called tethering. You enable wifi tethering on your phone first, then connect your Note to your phone. Easy peasy.
Sent from my GT-N8013 using xda premium
So "WIFI Tethering" will use 3G Data Connection of the phone?? Cause as I said, it's in the situation where there's no WIFI.

Yes
Beamed from my CM10.1 Galaxy Nexus
Just be aware that tethering to your phone will eat your phones battery power very quickly...
yeah I thought so ....... I have a 12000ma portable charger, that should circumvent that issue
Mate, from your post, it says you have the N8000 model. This is the 3g model. The wifi only are , worldwide, the N8010 and the , America, N8013.
There's also the Turkish N8005 but that has 3G internet.
There's the 4g LTE N8020 too..
If indeed you have an N8000 then you can slap a normal sized sim in it and use it for 3G and phone calls...
No it's my mistake, it's the N8010 that I have

Actually, sharing the connection using bluetooth is much more energy efficient and in my opinion better and easier.
Or would it be possible to connect with the phone by USB using an OTG adapter?

How do you share internet access through BT?
I like your USB idea indeed, didn't think of it, yes I do have the adaptor.

Using another Android 4.. phone the procedure is as follows:
Open the settings and share internet (same place as share by wifi), click the share by bluetooth button.
Open the bluetooth settings on your tablet. The easiest way to do this is to hold the bluetooth symbol in the system bar a couple of seconds, the same button that can turn bluetooth on and off.
Pair your devices, the first time you might have to make sure that one are in pairing mode (or visible might be a better name). Click the setting button for your phone in the tablet bluetooth menu. There's a setting called something like "use this devices Internet connection", click that.
Done! There might be some quick fix app that gives you widgets to turn it on and off instantly.
It won't hurt to try, when you connect it to your computer as far as I remember you get the option of sharing the phones Internet connection. Maybe it's just as simple when connecting to the tablet. Else, there might be an app for that as the kids are saying nowdays
