Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Going into APN settings and changing ipv6 to ipv4 kills my connection to the network.
T-mobile uses ipv6.
There should be no reason to use ipv4 anyway.
I can connect on IPV4 via my nexus 5 and 5x, so they do seem to support it. IPV6 can have compatibility issues with some ad blockers and VPNs, so I'd rather go back to v4.
Have you ever figured this out? I can connect to Ipv4 just fine on my Nexus 5, Nexus 6, Nexus 6p... but not on my Pixel XL on T-Mobiles network. I cannot seem to figure this out.
So did this issue like die. Is it solved what's up. Having the same issue over on my v20
Never figured it out unfortunately. Contacted t mobile support and they had no idea either. At least I know it wasn't just me.

It seems my phone keeps dropping wifi randomly, even as I'm writing this my wifi has dropped. My computer doesn't seem to have any problems with it. Wifi sleep policy is set to never and when it does connect to wifi its full strength.

I'm having problems with my D-Link wireless router. Devices can connect to the secured WPA/WPA2 connection with the password, but it doesnt really do anything except for show its connected. I've tried resetting my router completely. I think it has something to do with my Verizon router it goes through. i.e. When I type in 192.168.0.1 or w/e the default is for my router, it used to bring up access to my Verizon router instead of the D-link. I noticed the cables going to the Verizon router where not plugged in correct, (slots 2,3,4 instead of slots 1,2,3) and that fixed the 192.168.0.1 problem, by bringing back the d-link page. However, still not able to recieve internet on connected devices. (I think its somehow connecting to the Verizon router instead of the dual band D-link) --** I use the 2 ghz , not the 5
What's weird is that both my stock captivates would do the same thing. Than after I flashed them the problem completely disappeared.

Strange !!! Got my new Inspire yesterday, connected to WiFi and have been having trouble with my Airport Extreme ever since.
Airport worked perfectly up until then, ever since I keep having to reset the router to get it to work.
Anyone else having sudden trouble with their routers ?
Not having any.problems with the.wifi, quite impressed to.the contrary.
I did just finally upgrade.to a newer midrange (price) belkin.
Our.older netgear was a.nitemare for peripherals.

Fixed the problem. My slink router was conflicting with my Verizon router. I checked to see what my dlinks gateway/DNS IP was using some commands in the run/cmd and had to manually asign IP addresses.
The gateway and DNS should be the same.
Subnet 255.255.255.0
IP address is the phone's IP used to connect

If anyone is having problems obtaining an IP after extended periods of not being connected to your wireless router, try setting ur router to channel 11 and setting security to WEP. After I did this, I haven't had a problem reconnecting whatsoever.

I just got my Sensation today, unboxed it, but it won't do anything over the internet over wi-fi. I have connected it to my wi-fi router and it says it is connected with 4 bars of signal, but whenever I try to go to a webpage it brings up the Android fault screen saying "Webpage not available", it seems to do the same thing when connected through my pc (having said that, I am less sure my settings are correct for that to work).
I have moved from a Motorola Milestone, which works perfectly on the same network.
Does anyone have any ideas what I am doing wrong?
Cheers,
Dave

the only thing i can personally think is try making sure your router has all the latest drivers.....better yet...try to connect to a different wifi spot to eliminate phone or router. if, with a different known working router it doesn't work, then get worried.
I'm having similar problems. With my Vodafone sim everything works fine, but with my T-Mobile sim (which I want to use until my number is ported), I get 4 bars of HSDPA signal but no data connection and the wi-fi doesn't work.

Thanks, glad I'm not the only one. I've just tried it with my T-Mobile sim, and that has the same problems. Will probably try calling vodafone tomorrow or going in store, I hold out more hope of finding someone helpful online though. My experience of store staff is not 100% positive for technical stuff.
WiFi is good on mine although I don't get a 3g signal at all at home. T mobile sim doesn't connect to internet either but hopefully that should be because the internet settings should be changed for t mobile. I'm hoping that any issue we have can be sorted with a new radio.

You'll probably need to add new APN settings for t-mobile, as the Vodafone Sensation only has the vodafone APN.
lol that what i meant. but vodafone should have a better signal that t-mobile its struggling to keep 1 bar. hope this not one of those antenna bugs that my old tytn 2 had
I've not yet tried WiFi but my mobile data is now working fine on T-Mobile with the following APN settings;
Name: TMobile GPRS
APN: general.t-mobile.uk
Username: user
Password: pass
Enter that via the APN option in settings under wireless networks.

It looks like it is a problem with my router / network. I have managed to get wireless working on a different wireless network, so I think I need to play with my router to see if I can get that to work.
Thanks for all the help guys.
I have my Linksys wrt54gs flashed with ddwrt and it allows me to put the routers wifi into various modes such as client mode and repeater.
Basically I want to have my router connect to my Nexus S (or Panache) wifi hotspot, thereby allowing the devices connected to my router by cable to access the internet.
I had this working for months, then one day the PC on my LAN reported it had no internet access and I haven't been able to get it working again reliably since. The router and phone hotspot will connect, but the phone never seems to want to issue the router an IP, so no internety goodness.
Now the phone not wanting to issue the router an IP problem was there from the beginning. I initially solved it by setting up a static wan ip, gateway, and DNS on the routers wan configuration page. This worked well for months, until suddenly it didn't.
Now I've fiddled with it quite a bit and can sometimes get it working on one phone or the other, but it's never really consistent. It might work now, but if I go out and come back l (or try to switch between phones) getting it to work again can be a real hassle.
Anyone have anything like this setup and working reliably? Enquiring minds want to know.

did you ever get this working?
I bought a nexus 5 to replace my galaxy s4 which died a couple of days ago.
My home router is a Netgear D6300 and everything (pc, tv and phones such as iphone, samsung and nokia can connect just fine).
My nexus 5 was delivered today and i spent the last 5 hours to get it working with my wifi but NOTHING worked (and, i'm not joking, i got to the point of almost throwing it out of the window).
I tried enabling SSID broadcasting, changing "security options", changing channels, disabling 5ghz network, i also enabled the guest network with no protection but nothing worked.
The only thing i noticed was the when using particular channels (5-6-7) the phone would say "connecting" for a few seconds but then it would go back to "saved,protected with wpa/wpa2".
I also changed some wifi settings on my phone (i disabled wifi optimization and i forced the phone to use the 2.4 ghz network only)
Sometimes it stays on "saved....." and doesn't even seem to try to connect.
After a while i tried creating an hotspot with an iphone 5s and my nexus connected in a second and everything was working.
So the problem should be in my router settings but i already tried everything (and besides everything else but the nexus works just fine).
I'm really desperate because i use this phone for work and i need to get this working asap.
I also managed to update to android 4.4.4 using my mobile network but i can't update to lolipop because it would use all my remaining 3g network data.
Btw i did some heavy modding on my galaxy s4 so i'm not a newbie to android.
I'm also willing to pay for support but to be honest i'm really disappointed that such and "acclaimed" phone has problems connecting to a wifi network that works with basically everything.
Sorry if I missed it in the post, but did you reboot the router.

Yes but it didn't help.
I've had 4 N5's in my possession over the past year or so, and not a single one had any issues connecting to any WiFi network, including Netgear routers. Your problem is either specific to your particular device or your router and not with the N5 in general. I assure you, the N5 deserves all the praise (and criticisms) that it has received.ave you tried a different router? I know you used it with your iPhone's hotspot but I mean an actual router? Also, have you tried resetting your router to defaults?
Are you using MAC filtering on the router?

I just tried a dlink router on my home network and everything works!!!!!
But i want to understand why my D6300 doesn't work with the nexus (its configured the same way as the dlink).
Any suggestions???
In the meantime i'll reset the D6300.

Nope, i've disabled it.
And btw i read on some forums of people using my netgear with the nexus 5 and everything was working just fine.

If your router is handing out DHCP addresses it may have run out of addresses if you have many wireless devices connecting infrequently. But I would thing a reboot would have cleared that up.
Whenever I switch my APN setting to IPv6, my days disconnects and refuses to work until I switch back to IPv4. I checked my wife's phone (G3) to see how she was getting LTE and I was getting 2G while we are sitting right beside each other and it was the different APN setting. Any one else having this issue or has found a solution?
I can also confirm this issue, data only works on IPv4.
