1st they blocked me from the Staff Wifi
Now they blocked me from Student Wifi
or they changed the password BUT using the app Wifi Connection Manager, it says connected so i think the password is correct
It gets stuck at scanning or associating (scan paused)
I tried using the app Override DNS but it cant even associate so it returns errors of original DNSs were null etc.
I'd like to try use Static IP which is a option in the app Wifi Connection Manager
but it needs IP Address, Gateway and Netmask as well as DNS 1 & 2 which I could use 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 but I don't know the IP Address, Gateway and Netmask which go with the Google DNS
I will thank helpful comments!

Hi Folks,
I have set up my wife's SPV E650 to hook up to our wireless network at home so she can connect to the internet through the home wireless network. We have static IP's on our LAN. Although I have specified a static IP for the E650's wireless connection, I cannot find out where I specify the DNS servers to allow her to connect to the internet via our ISP, (I know the DNS server IPs, I just can't find out where I enter that info on the E650). So at the moment, I can connect to the home network, but cannot get onto t'internet!
It is quite likely that I am being a spaz and am missing something obvious... regardless, if you can help me, let me know!
Cheers

even if you have a static IP you should not have to specify a static DNS because your default gateway should be your router IP address and your router should automatically give the DNS servers to any device that pulls that ip address

Thanks for your response.
All the other devices on my home network (laptop, PC, Xbox 360, SPV M3100) ask for the DNS server to be specified in a static IP environment, and they all connect to the internet just fine through the wireless network.
I am sure you are right, but I know that none of the above mentioned devices connect to the internet without the DNS servers specified.
So, question remains, how do I specify the DNS servers on the E650? Maybe a registry entry?
@mortalwombat,
i have the same problem with my htc s710.
Even though I run the wireless network with static IPs, I set my HTC S710 to get the IP "from a server" (= dynamic IP setting).
I did this after I tried with an IP Adress within my IP Adress Range.
So what happened is that my S710 somehow gets an IP Adress from my router that is almost in my regular IP Range.
You can try to set an static IP Adress within your Range first and then switch to dynamic IP Adress on you device..

hello, I'm using an htc inspire 4g. I connect to wifi but no internet access. other devices connect to the router. I tried resetting the phone and it still doesn't work. Can someone help me fix this???
here's the software information.
Android version 2.3.5
Htc sense version: 3.0
Software number: 3.20.502.52 710RD
Kernel version:2.6.35.10-ga 375925

Build number: 3.20.502.CL380259 release keys
Browser version: webKit/533.1
You should check the settings for the WiFi network. Make sure gateway is set to the address of the router, DNS server is set to the address provided by your ISP (unless your router is providing a DNS service), and select DHCP as the means to get an IP address, or specify a static address if desired.

The IP address you enter for the gateway address needs to be the local address and not the Internet address. Your router has one address that it presents to other hosts on the Internet, and one that it presents locally to systems on your home network. The former is your public IP address, and it will be assigned by your ISP. If you google "whats my IP address" on a working system on your network, and click one of the links in the result, you'll see your public IP address displayed. This is NOT what you want to enter for gateway address in your network configuration on your HTC.
You need the private address of the router. It probably starts with 192.168, and 192.168.1.1 would be a good guess. You need to consult your router documentation to see what it is. Also note that it could have been changed through the web interface to the router, by whomever configured your router. To verify you have the correct private LAN address, type http://<some IP address> in your browser, and you should see a router configuration screen, probably prompting you for a password. If you can't figure out the LAN address, post the make and model of your wireless router, and we can tell you the default LAN address, or you could google for that info also.
What do you have selected for how the IP address is specified? I guess the precise wording varies from ROM to ROM, but you can either define your own (static) IP address or select to have the router's DHCP server assign an IP address. You should select the latter, as it's simpler to configure. Then you need to make sure you have the correct DNS address. You can probably set this to the router's LAN address, which will work if the router is configured to pass through DNS requests. If that doesn't work, your ISP should somewhere tell you what DNS addresses (prime and backup) you should be using. You could also look at the network config of a working system on your LAN, and copy those settings on your HTC.
When all these settings are made, see if there is a selection to renew the DHCP lease, and do that if you find it. If you don't have that option, and it's still not working, select to "forget" the network, then connect to it again and enter all the settings from scratch and submit it.
Since you're connected to WiFi, it sounds like you have the correct password and security type set. The fact that you're connected to WiFi and not Internet suggests something is wrong with your IP configuration. Hopefully one of the things mentioned above will get you going.
It worked... Thank you

Hi,
I am working on a project and i need a local private network to do some testing for WiFi. I am trying to connect to a Router which is not having the DHCP server .I have manually changed the settings of Router. Since the DHCP server is not running in the Router, the DHCP client will not be able get the IP address . As I know, if there is no DHCP server in the network the DHCP client should assign an Auto IP in the series 169.254.xx.xx according to the Zeroconf logic. But this is not working. The DHCP client is getting timed out and connection is getting reset. I am using the DHCP client version 5.2.10 from Roy Marples.
Does this DHCP client support the Zeroconf? If DHCP client supports, how to enable the Auto IP ?
in my network at home is a fritzbox cable router with WLAN. i set DNS to a external DNS Server that is under my control. when i connect with laptops to the WLAN, i can see in the logs on the external DNS Service the requests from the laptop. now when i connect a mobile (android 10, samsung a71) to the wlan, i dont see any DNS requests to DNS Service... i use chrome on android. where are the dns requests routed to? and how can change settings that chrome on android connnected to my WKLAN , should use DNS Settings its get via DHCP from the wlan?
In my phone i see to setting/conn setting/more conn sett/ private dns.
Maybe help you.

thats for crypting dns requests.
it seems android is not using the dns server from the wlan connection
Android shows your DNS server in your WiFi settings. Click your network and it should be listed somewhere.
Network's DNS server can be bypassed by private DNS settings. Make sure it's set to "off"
Chrome on Android also has an option to use custom DNS, but it's disabled by default AFAIK. Setting is located under Settings > Privacy and security > Use secure DNS. Make sure it's not set to "Choose another provider"
There's also a cool tool https://1.1.1.1/help which should show your DNS provider under "AS Name". Maybe compare results in this URL between your phone and laptop. They should be the same.
Ask Question
I had a small quarrel with my stepfather, and then he didn’t let me access the home internet. When I try to connect to our home wifi normally, it says "obtaining ip address" and loops for minutes until it says "failed to obtain ip address." But when I try to connect by setting static ip from my phone, it connects immediately but says " no internet." I assumed he might have blacklisted me, but I am unable to connect even my laptop and other phones. Suspecting that my stepfather had enabled whitelist or MAC filtering, I tried to spoof MAC address using kali linux, but I couldn't connect to the wifi with spoofed MAC. I need internet but my stepfather won't listen to me. Since he is not in home right now and won't return for a month, I don't have a connected device to access the setup page and see the settings of our Digicom ( DG-M342T) router. I am also unable to physically access the router but I have the password( Authentication type - WEP). How do I fix this? I would really appreciate your help.
You could download the router's management app and then view the connected devices list on your phone. Check your router's setup guide to see which app you need to download.

I can't access the setup page by typing 192.168.10.1 in the url or from other Router management apps on the play store. It says " Can't reach the page." I also checked the guide where it says to open admin page by typing 192.168.10.1 on the browser , but there is no mention of any management apps.

Thanks for your reply jwoegerbauer. As I mentioned earlier in my post, if I connect to wifi just by typing password, it loops "obtaining ip address" for long period, and therefore I have to set static ip address through the advance setting of wifi just to connect to it. My router's local ip address is 192.168.10.1 . I used to access the admin page before the restriction through this ip address. But now it says "Can't reach the page." The problem is about not being able to access internet and admin page after connecting to the router.
Clear your local DNS cache to make sure you have the recent version from your ISP for 192.168.10.1. For Windows machine, you can do this by going to Start > Command Prompt > Type ipconfig /flushdns and then hit Enter.
Assumed that router's IP really is 192.168.10.1 and it still doesn't work then maybe ISP is blocking it. You may try to use an alternate DNS service such as Cloudflare for example.
I flushed the dns in windows. Now I can connect to the wifi without setting statip ip (in windows), but I still can't access internet. If I try to open any website, it says "
Hmmm… can't reach this page" and then says "You are not connected." I installed cloudflare WARP in windows but it was no use , since it requires internet access to function.
These are the screenshots of my android to explain what exactly happens:
1. When I try to connect to wifi just by typing it's password (loops at "obtaining ip address")
2. Setting the static ip manually
3. Instantly connected after setting static ip
4. Connected but No internet
5. Can't access router setup page
Cloudflare Warp? Confused.
How to change DNS Server to Cloudflare is explained in detail here:

I downloaded an application( Cloudflare WARP) form the cloudflare website linked below. I checked the website you linked and changed the DNS accordingly, but I still can't access internet. My android phone is not even connecting without static ip and I am tired of manually setting it and not being able to use internet.

Well thanks for your help jwoegerbauer. Below is the screenshot of ipconfig command after flushing dns. It looks like I haven't been assigned an ip address, the subnet is different, and the gateway is blank. Do you have any idea what this means? What could be a valid ip adress to connect manually with static ip?
