[Q] Wifi Connection Problems - Vegan-Tab

Need a little help. My G-tab is running current VEGAn-TAB rom. I am having problems getting the wifi to actually connect. My icon shows a good signal, and inside the wireless settings I am showing connected to my wireless network. I also went to advance settings and made sure wifi never sleeps. All apps that need internet connection (market, browser, etc.) show no data connection.
Used yesterday with no problems. My laptop is running on same network and working fine.
Any ideas?

have you restarted? Sometimes happens to me too but it's nothing a simple restart can't fix.

Yes. Restarted several times. Didn't work.
Oddly enough I have a Airave from Sprint to boost my cell phone signal, and it may have been the problem. When I unplugged it and returned to my G-Tab later the Wifi was working. Not sure why.

Could be competition on the 2.4 GHz frequencies. Some wireless phones and even microwave ovens can trash a wifi connection.

Moved to general

Anyone else having WiFi problems with Vegan? Since installing this mod, I can only connect to a WEP signal and not a WPA-secured network.

I can't connect either. Trying to connect to a wep wifi and it stays on "obtaining ip address from ..." but never completes the connection. Any help?

No problems with home WEP, office WPA2-PSK and several wide open public ones. I just wish the damn thing would auto-connect to the ones I have been to before.

My only guess is, if its a 5Ghz N Router you should check to see if it allows
2.4Ghz signals and not just 5Ghz. The GTAB doesn't seem to support connections at 5Ghz.

I just changed over from TNT Lite(latest version) and was able to connect fine but I didn't like the interface and some of the features. I've loaded Vegan tab 7.0.0 and I was able to connect at work (802.1 EAP) network but I can't connect to a wep wifi at home (were several other pc's are connected and working fine) and it stays on "obtaining ip address from ..." but never completes the connection. Any help?
I have a Linksys wrt300n router and have confirmed that it configured to accept 2.4Ghz & 5Ghz signal and have rebooted several times with no luck.

I don't have a lot to add to help you troubleshoot, but I can say that I am running VEGAn Gingerbread RC1 with pershoot's latest kernel. I am able to connect at home on a WAP2-PSK (Linksys Linux based G/N) at home, WAP2-PSK at the cabin (Linksys's cheapest G/N), and at work on a 802.1 EAP network (Cisco).
I has some unexplained issue mounting the internal storage on a computer. After a little head scratching, I started to wonder if it had something to do with the custom kernel I was running. I flashed Pershoot's latest kernel and my problems went away.
I mention all that to suggest that you might try flashing a different kernel and see if you get different results.

I have an issue with vegan where when i reboot the device (or turn off and turn on) wifi is off even if left on when turning off, i have to manually turn on wifi after every boot.

Have you checked to see if you're using MAC address filtering, and if so, that your gTab's MAC address has been added to the whitelist on the router? I get the feeling that that may be the issue. You have the WEP key on your device, but your router's still blocking it. I'm running the same ROM you are, and have had absolutely no troubles connecting to my work network with 802.1 PEAP, WPA/WPA2-TKIP and AES at home, and multiple makes/models of access points/routers.
Hmmm. Just reread your original. Now I'm wondering if you have enough DHCP leases available on your router. If you're out, you'll have to wait until a lease expires or add some more to your scope of addresses.
Hope some of that helped in some way...

[Q] WIfi disconnection on certain networks

Hi everybody!
I'm using the latest build of CM11S (KTU84P), When i'm connected to my home network (using a Dlink 6740H1 router) the connection to the wireless network will stop after a few minutes.
The wireless icon will become orange and there will be no data transfer what so ever. When I'm connected to other wireless networks the phone works fine and does not disconnects.
The "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" option is checked and the "Avoid poor connections" is not checked, further more I've tried flashing franko kernel but it didn't change anything.
Other phones in the house (HTC one X) does not seem to suffer from the same problem, did anyone ran into this issue before?
Thank a lot!

*cough*

i have a similar problem with the latest rom.. KTU84Q (38R).. my wifi wont connect to my home AP.. never had this issue pre 38R.

Did you find a solution to this problem?

I have the same problem..

I am also having this problem.

I'm having the same issue with our router at work. Have you tried setting up a static IP for your home network?

problem with wifi: i connect to a network (password) and everything is ok until i go out of coverage. when i go back in area, the phone scans/finds the saved network but does not connect auto, i have to turn off/on wifi and then it connects.
on all networks, dosen't matter the router model or type of network (password or free, static/dinamic IP)

Try deleting all the saved Ap and re-add them. Seems it worked for me, now it connects to Wi-Fi. I had many saved from trips (hotels, pubs Wi-Fi with password and many free)

[Q] Wi-Fi / MAC address issues on my OPO

So far, my wi-fi has been working fine on Android L - except for when I'm home where my router has white-listed its devices with their MAC-addresses. It worked fine when running Android 4.4, but I had no success yet on Oxygen, cm12 nightlies or cm12s.
Whenever i try to connect, it says "Connecting.." and switches to "Saved" after some time and then tries to connect again. I have removed the whitelist and it connected fine - but as soon as the router restarts, I can't connect again. Even if my device's MAC address is whitelisted.
Strangely, it does connect once after a fresh cm12 or Oxygen installation, but only once. Disabling and re-enabling wifi will not let my OPO connect to it anymore.
Anyone having similar issues or any advice? It seems like my OPO doesn't want to reveal its MAC address to my router. Other devices can connect without any problems.

From Ubuntu Touch porting I know that the OPO uses a default (private) MAC address at startup until it get initialized with the correct one, save somewhere in a config or firmware partition. We are also currently unable to use more than 2 OPOs in the same network due to MAC address collission. Maybe you have the same problem, as it turns out, as our port is based on Lineage/CM for OPO.

Try flashing the modem/radio from one of the latest stock fastboot flashable ROMs perhaps? This may resolve your issue, especially if you where on a stock ROM that was old before you started flashing custom ROMs. There was once an app that would allow you to truly spoof your Mac address, but I believe it wasn't working for anything above Jellybean or Kit Kat. It used to be great help for moments such as these.

WiFi and FritzBox

Hi,
is there a fix for the wireless connection bug between the opo and a fritzbox?
The problem:
The opo is not able to connect to the wlan on the fritzbox with DHCP enabled more than one times.
It is a known problem, there are a lots thread out.
The point is, that the fritzbox is recongnize the opo on every connect as a new device.
When the option "always same ip to the device" is enabled the opo can´t connect anymore.
Some people slove it with unchecking this same ip feature. So they will get a new ip adress on every connect.
I can not use this because i need to have the same ip all the time.
Rebooting the phone (or turning on/off flight mode) helps and you are able to connect once more.
I also tried to assign a manual ip to my phone (not using DHCP). But it not working stable. Sometimes it still crash.
Anyway i was woundering that there are no threads about that problem? Am i the only one?
Anyone knows how to fix this?

ive read about that problem but myself never faced it. (settings like you mentioned). i got the keep ip feature active + dhcp
Fritzboxes I've been connected to:
3390 (at home constantly)
7490
7270
latest firmware.

I have the Fritzbox 6490 and no problems... maybe you could try to reset the router?

wifi connection problemp - solved

We have set up a WiFi router at our summer house and all devices bar my OnePlus 8 connects without problem to the WiFi. My phone connects to the WiFi but not the internet. Have restarted the phone and removed and added the WiFi connection but no luck. Any idea what's going on?

I had this problem with my oneplus 8, European version, where at times internet connection would drop, but wifi was still connected so the phone was in effect blocked since I use VoWiFi both voice calls and data was blocked.
The problem turned out to be between my router and the oneplus 8. I had to go into the settings of the router and disable a feature called "band steering". This setting will make the two different wifi gateways inside the router, the 2.4 ghz and the 5 ghz appear as one and the same with the same SSID name. This is supposed to simplify setting up devices with wifi but is known to cause problems sometimes.
As soon as I had separated the two and given them different names, I no longer have a problem with internet access dropping from the wifi.
I have no idea where the fault happens, I only know that I have had to disable band steering with another router I had before. I think this feature might be a bit unstable.

No idea what's happened but this morning it just worked.
