This problem is on both cm12s (oneplus) and stock android (5.0 and 5.1 on nexus 5)
Obviously I can pair with my Mac (latest Mac OS) and click "connect to network" there. This shows up correctly in the status bar of my phone (1 device connected to Internet sharing through bluetooth).
Now the problem is when I check the status of the PAN network on my Mac, it says "self assigned IP address" and renewing the DHCP lease doesn't work. I assume I can change the address to "manual" but there must be a better way? I've tried on 2 different macbooks, no difference. Also, how can I find the internal ip/gateway on Android to even try the manual IP address?
I don't have any issues with bluetooth tethering to my other Android devices.

Hey guys, I have an LG p500 and I use custom roms. Currently using CM 6.5.7 (2.3.5) and randomly I got this. It says my wireless is disabled. I am unable to include a photo as I am new to the forums. But basically it shows my wireless name and "disabled, secured by blah blah". I've tried forgetting the network, still same problem. Reflashed and wiped cache and dalvik.
I am unable to connect to my wireless, it just says disabled. This randomly happened, and wifi was working fine for 6 months, It worked fine on 6.5.7 but just randomly said that. I can connect all other wireless devices to the router, so whats the problem

'Forget' all the networks until you no longer have 'Not in range' networks. Maybe reboot your phone and try connecting again. It should work.
Nope, didn't do it.
Still says the same thing.
I experienced a similar problem with my home network (with the same rom) and solved by introducing manually the IP adress, gateway, netmask & the DNS. (got them easily by looking at the properties of my wireless network from a laptop and choosing an IP address within the range supported by my router). Now my phone is always connected using this configuration, but it only works optimally with the network for which settings are valid.
Might be a ROM bug. someone alerted to mik about this bug to fix it?
I have the same problem too. My WiFi randomly stopped working and when I turn the WiFi on it says "connecting" and then "disconnected". When I try to scan for more it doesn't do anything. I am also using the Cyanogen Mod as well.
The problem is probably that usb debugging is turned on. Try turning it off.
explain me pls

help me connect to eduroam pls
when i try to connect it says : "scanning ...."then "connecting ...." then "saved, secured with 802.1x"
Sensation XE
fw 3.25
rom : ARHD 6.2.1
ICS
same for me Sony
seems to be an android bug
-scanning-connecting-searching---- "disabled, secured with 802.1x eap"
this is my loop, and no connection at all
Same here :-(
iPhone users can connect fine to my company's 802.1x wifi network, but i can't from my android phones (SE Xperia X10 on Gingerbread & HTC Sensation on ICS)
A google search shows a lot of users having issue in connecting to 802.1x networks since Froyo (Android 2.2). There are worksrounds suggested, but they don't appear to work for me.
It seems the issue still exists in ICS as well :-(
Try LEAP WiFi free (it is in the market) or try to find one app for your comapny.
Leap WiFi works fine for me on IBM EAP APs.
Delete your old saved setting, before creating a new with Leap WiFi.

Must be a bug in CM9, I'm having the same issue. Thinking about going back to CM7

Finally, I've defeated my CiSCO EAP-FAST corporate wifi network and now all our Android devices are able to connect to it.
The walkaround I've performed in order to gain access to this kind of networks from an Android device are easiest that you can imagine.
I'am a BES, MDM and Lotus Administrator, and btw and iOS lover.
Many of my colleages are Android users, and their claim is always the same.
Why iOS and BB users are able to connect to the corporate wireless network by chosing only WPA2 Enterprise and only needs the network SSID and their Active Directory Credentials?
2 years has passed since I heard this claim from my colleagues for the first time , and until yesterday, all of them remained disconnected even when they had ICS on their devices.
This things made me think about the Android and iOS system differences, and the way the OS developer thinks.
A wireless chipSet is a wireless chipset, and it not depends of the OS installed in a mobile device to have a better compatibility.( not like servers or routers ).
When you setup a Corporate wifi network on iPhone, basically you command the system to use some protocols to connect to, included in the WPA2 Enterprise cabinet. the system check all of the until find the right one to connect.
Android doesn't have the same protocols defined in his WPA2 Enterprise system definitions, so if you try to connect to it by using the main Android interface, you will have an authentication error.
There's a Wifi Config Editor in the Google Play Store you can use to "activate" the secondary CISCO Protocols when you are setting up a EAP wifi connection.
It's name is Wifi Config Advanced Editor.
Firstable you have to setup your wireless network manually as seemful as you can to your "official" corporate wifi parameters.
Save it.
Go to the WCE and edit the parameters of the network you have created in the previous step.
There are 3 or 4 series of settings you should activate in order to force the Android device to use them as a way to connect (the main site I think you want to visit is Enterprise Configuration, but don't forget to check all the parameters to change them if needed.
As a suggestion, even if you have a WPA2 EAP-FAST Cipher, try LEAP in your setup.
It worked for me as a charm.
When you finished to edit the config, go to the main Android wifi controller, and force to connect to this network.
DO NOT Edit the network again with the Android wifi interface.
Tested on Samsung Galaxy 1, 2 and Note mobile devices and on a Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet.
Gingerbread, Honeycomb and ICS.
May the force be with you, my young Padawan

Try the "Leap WIFI free" app from Play Store
Try the "Leap WIFI free" app from Play Store. Its an app provided by a developer called "OneGuyInABasement".
I was having the same issue where I couldn't connect to the (802.1x EAP based) Wifi network at my workplace.
I configured the network through this app and now I can connect just fine.
Leap WIFI free not working with JB 4.2.1
I have tried using Leap WIFI free on my Asus TF700T running the latest OTA update to JB (4.2.1).
While the tool seems to create a network profile, it does not even connect.
Trying to connect to a wifi network that shows up as Cisco EAP-FAST when I connect via my windows laptop
I've tried creating the profile using the built in wifi config editor as well, unfortunately it defaults to PEAP and while it connects and gets an IP address I do not have actual network access (e.g. web browsing fails).
The wifi ACE tool has not been updated to support JB yet either.
Any other suggestions?
Hello,
I'm having the "Obtaining IP Address" issue, where it just tries and fails (over and over). This only happens at work (works great at home, in hotels, starbucks, etc.).
Protocol: WPA2-Personal / AES encryption
SSID is broadcasted on channel 6
It is _not_ restricted by MAC address.
I do not have any control over it, so cannot reset/reboot the router, and IT dept offers no Android support.
My devices (both fail): Asus Transformer Prime (unlocked/rooted ICS), Samsung T989 Galaxy S2 (rooted Gingerbread)
I can connect to it just fine with my windows laptop, so I know the WPA password I'm using works just fine.
Things I have tried:
1) Reboot device
2) Forget network, add network manually
3) Use static IP (connects, but can't actually go anywhere)
4) Delete /data/misc/dhcp/dhcp_list
5) Delete /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
Just says "Obtaining IP Address" - then fails, then scans, then tries again. This is true on both devices. Once again, works fine with Windows laptop.
Does anyone have any idea why this would happen? Given I have absolutely no control over the router, is there anything else I can try?
Thanks a lot in advance!
That happens to me sometimes and idk why it does it either, says obtaining IP adresse over and over again but never says connected, I was trying to connect to a wifi hotspots in a resturant and it did that, tried next week and it worked, pretty weird

Hello,
I have a galaxy nexus running stock android 4.2.1 with a very peculiar problem. From time to time i have trouble accessing a certain website if i try from wifi or from mobile connection it doesn't matter. If i restart the device the website works without a problem. It was a very odd problem and kept bugging me so i tried to focus on finding the real cause. After a lot of try and error i managed to arrive at this situation:
I have at my disposal 3 different wifi networks (lets call the wifi-1,wifi-2,wifi-3) and mobile broadband connections.
after a reboot of the phone (just to have a clear state) if i connect to wifi-1,2 or mobile conn the website works OK. if i connecto to wifi-3 the site also works OK but then after i disconnect from wifi-3 and connect to any of the other wifi-1,wifi-2 or mobile conn it doesn't work anymore. If i connect to wifi-3 again it works fine on that network.
I've connected to the phone using connectbot and checked the ip address and different params. and i simply can't get a ping to that website. a similar website located in the same subnet but on a different IP still works.
So what could happen on the network layer on the phone to stop working the connection to a certain IP?
Where could i find some info about how to debug IP networking issues on android 4.2.x
PS: I control both the phone and the servers that i'm trying to reach and can't see any traffic coming from the phone on the server.
PS1: I couldn't reproduce the issue with android 4.2.2 only with 4.2.1 (i've also tested android 4.4.4 and couldn't reproduce) i've tested 2 different phones with 4.2.1 and the problem reproduces.
This seems like an issue of handshake and IP Negotiation on the phone. Please see what options you have in terms of DHCP and IPV6 Settings. Please also take a close look at the DHCP Lease time of WiFi-3.
Also Please post in Galaxy Nexus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting so that the right experts for your device may be of help.
Thank you

IPv6 is disabled
DHCP is similarly configured on all networks. different IP classes. IP addresses change correctly every time. As i'm able to connect to everything i try except that certain website i don't think it's something related with dhcp.
Hi guys!
I have an issue with bluetooth tethering between two android phones:
A-Oneplus One cm12.1 latest nightly
B-Xperia SP cm11 latest stable release
Bluetooth tethering is activated on A, and paired up with B. Then I activate the "use internet access" option on the bluetooth pairing settings. Then when I try to access the internet on B, I get a "could not find server" error. It is not a dns issue as the problem is the same when using ip addresses.
I tried to isolate the faulty phone with two scenarios:
I connected a friend's phone running kitkat to A: internet worked fine, which led me thinking that A was sharing its connection correctly and thus B was at fault. But then I connected B to my friend's phone in bluetooth tethering mode: internet worked fine, so B can receive bluetooth tethering internet correctly...
Could it be that lollipop phones have trouble sharing bluetooth internet to kitkat phones? Seems a bit fishy to me...
Is there a command line tool (like pand on old cyanogen phones) to manually configure A or B?
Any ideas? Thank you!
Update:
I ran a netfcg on B: it showed that bt-pan didnt have any Ip address assigned.
So i did
netcfg bt-pan dhcp
ip route add default via 192.168.44.1 (A's ip address).
Now i can ping any internet IP, but I cannot ping web addresses. How do I set the correct dns in this case?
Thanks!
This post solved my problem.
