I am trying to figure out if I can change the DHCP IP range in phone uses for tethering from 192.168.43.X to 192.168.1.X. I set my devices connected to my router set to static IP since my network needs to communicate with or without internet. But my wife's Note 3 uses the 192.168.1.X scheme.
I am comfortable using whatever means necessary. Just don't know the deep down commands to change this.
Any help would be awesome.

I'm having an issue where my wifi can't obtain an IP address from my router. I've reset both the phone and the router and it still can't connect. The password is correct. Any ideas? THanks
Edit: It goes into a loop where it tries to get an address for a while and then disconnects and then starts over
Same here. I'm rooted and get the same thing on different find including stock.
Try turning your encryption off and see if you can connect. If it connects then start working up through the encryption levels. Some devices can't handle higher level encryptions.

I'm trying to connect to open networks. So that's not the problem. hope we don't have another case of the captivate on our hands. I'm kind of in the middle right now with this phone. Possibly returning it and keeping my captivate with all its Rom flashing goodness. I know its early but this thing seems a little buggy to me and the battery isn't helping any.
I'm also having this problem. It tries to connect to the network, fails, and tries to connect again. I love this phone but I may return it and get the Attrix

Turning off the wifi encryption worked for me. Not ideal but ok for now.
Hate to sound noobish but......how do I turn off the encryption?

Log into your router and set wireless security to unsecured, then save changes
If get on wifi networks in different locations but have same SSID, it could cause connectivity issues (e.g., wifi SSID at my gym is "linksys", same as one of my neighbor's. My Inspire attempts to connect continuously without success to my neighbor's encrypted wifi after I've been at the gym which is an open wifi.)

Could you please fill me in on what you did to accomplish this. I am having the same exact issue it goes into a loop of trying to "obtain ip address" then disconnecting.
I have a stock inspire 4g, sig is outdated. Router was using wpa/wpa2 however i have switched through all the other available security settings (wep, no security) and the same issue persists.
Ok so now i went to the advanced settings and checked the DLNA auto-IP box, this allowed the phone to connect to the network however it still will not pull up any websites through the browser.
Been having the same problem here i can connect to my network but it times out trying to obtain an IP address disconnects and tries again. Any suggestions would be great because i can't seem to find an answer anywhere. My inspire is stock by the way never been rooted or anything
Is your router on IPv6? Needs to be on IPv4.
For those having problems with WiFi...
Change security to WEP
Put wireless router on channel 11
Try these settings first!

Still can't get it to obtain an IP address, however I got it to work by setting up a static IP address on the inspire. I would really like to get to the bottom of this problem though.
You might be having an IP conflict.. does your router allow you to assign IP per a connected device MAC address?
It basically holds a certain IP for a certain MAC address

Hmmm not sure I'll have to look into that. Havent tried to connect to any other networks yet guess that could help a bit
Have u updated the firmware on your network gear? What is your setup by the way?

Ok, tried to use a laptop today on my network and it had the same issue so I reset the whole system (i have at&t uverse) and that fixed it. Don't know why I didnt do that from that start but after I did my inspire connected first time with no problems.
I had a problem with my wireless router and my Verizon router using the same DNS gateways. I checked to see what my DLink routers DNS server/default gateway was using the commands in the run when you hit cmd+r on my PC. I then had to manually assign my phone to a static IP in wifi settings>advanced.
Example;
IP.(phone) 192.168.1.197
Gateway: 192.168.1.1
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
DNS: 192.168.1.1
For some reason my phone was automatically reading 192.168.0.1 on the DNS and gateway.

My Access Point in the home is : US Robotics
Could any body tell me what to do.

It is probably in your router configuration.
Sounds like you have dhcp turned off on your router.
Try also resetting the router to stock default settings and go from there.

I did every thing
I did every thing you can imagine regarding the access point
rest to factory
change radio channel
with / without security
the DHCP working fine
seems that Dynamic setting could not get the Default gateway & DNS , WiFi can get it only with custom rom based on stock rom......
Is it WiFi driver problem , if it is.. how can i fix it?
I am useing now Honeysense 5.0 rom
Help
Any Body??
Possibly an IP conflict too... most likely its the router.. use channel 11 and set security to WEP..
Does ur router let u designate an IP based on connected MAC addresses?

Why would you ever tell anybody to do that?! Either use WPA2 w/ AES encryption (AES only, don't use TKIP) or just don't use security.
On another note, have you tried connecting to any other wifi networks with these other ROMs (i.e. public hotspots or at a friend's house)? Sometimes routers just are overly picky about how IP requests are handled and some devices don't play nicely. We have a client who's Macbook _WILL NOT_ get and IP from their Linksys regardless of the fact that every other device we've ever tried (everything from multiple Windows laptops to a Linux laptop to iPhones, iPods and android phones) works fine with it.
|OP|, try connecting to another Wireless Access Point and get back with us, please.
Try the APN trick listed in the forum. Your router might be set to IPV6 and you need it set to IPV4

Why? Because I had a problem with obtaining an IP on this phone UNTIL I changed WEP. I understand its the lowest security level, but I am not overly concerned with my WiFi getting hacked since 1. My ssid isn't broadcast and 2. If it was you would have to be within 10 ft of my house to even get a signal.
Since changing to WEP on this phone I haven't had a single problem with obtaining an IP

The initial situation is that my Nexus 5 is connected to a Wlan-AP (Raspberry Pi) without internet gateway, so the phone isn't connected to the internet while connected to the AP. My target is to enable 3g-data while being connected to the AP so I can stream music from Google Music (using 3g) to the AirPlay receiver in the Wlan-AP (RbPi). Ironically, I can achieve this functionality with an iPhone. I just assign a static IP without default gateway and without a DNS and it works perfectly. Now, with my Nexus 5 I can't do it. I can't set a static IP without default gateway and DNS.
How can I achieve this? I don't mind the complexity level.
Tethering?

Nope. Tethering, even though uses your 3G connection, is another whole independent network.
Hello all,
I setup OpenVPN so I could access my home network and view my TWC Spectrum subscription when out and about . The Spectrum TV app is detecting that im using a VPN and limits what I can watch.
I see in the past users on XDA developers removed blocks from the old app (APK) but im wondering if there's another way to hide the fact I'm using a VPN. I am using the default port (1194) but I'm wondering if changing that will help before I go through and do that.
Thanks.

i had the same problem so i just spoofed the ip on a different time warner cable / spectrum node
and gave me all channels
How does it detect VPN? By outgoing IP or by the settings? Spectrum TV is not the only app. Netflix does the same.
@legendofsounds can you please elaborate on how you got this working?

twc spectrum assigns you an ip address (DHCP) for your subscription so that ip is only going to work for your username and password for the spectrum tv app.
What i did is i logged in to my Netgear r6300 router settings and went to the internet tab i seen my ip address and copied the same numbers shown for
ip: x.x.x.x
subnetmask: 255.255.x.x
defaultgateway: x.x.x.x
i went to visit my family in another city/Node
and logged in to they're router settings and set a static ip with the same ip i had back in my house
once i hit apply settings opened spectrum tv on a roku logged in with my credentials and it worked like a charm.
NOTE: If you try this in the same city where modem A is it wont work because the ip will have a conflict problem
Thanks for clarifying!
This is an interesting work around (and one I'm surprised works).
However, it doesn't help the situation I (and I believe the original poster) are in. I'm able to log into the VPN running on a machine inside my TWC hosted network using my router or even an individual PC, and that works fine. I'm able to see all channels.
Problem is when I'm on my phone using a mobile connection (or wifi on a network that I don't have control over). I can connect to the same VPN on my phone, but the TWC app disallows use when it detects that the phone itself is connected to a VPN. So it seems that we need a way to connect our phones to a VPN without the TWC app knowing it's connected to a VPN.
Is there a working modified apk that disables the VPN check?
