Doesn't seem to be working for me?
Running cyanogen 5.0.6 with Raven's AVS kernel.
I tried the normal wireless tether app, but no luck.
Also tried anetshare, also not working. What could be causing this?
Bump. Still not working. For some reason worked on modacos desire rom. reflashed cyanogen but still didn't work. Using persiansown undervolted 925mV kernel which should support tethering.
Does it work with other kernels?
Just switched to ravens 800mv and still no wireless tethering. I've even tried wiping and reflashing just cyanogen and no luck.
I have issues with the wireless tether working. I usually just use wired tether. On mine, it will usually see my phone, but not connect.
It seems to connect fine the first time, but the next time I use it, it will not connect.
I'm on CM 5.0.6 with Manup's Theme
Mine will not even show. Usually it shows there being like 0.1kb uploaded before anything connects, but now I turn wireless tether on and nothing happens. It says that its on but doesnt emit a signal!
Can anyone help?
Anyone have a suggestion.... Or solution?
Wiped and flashed 5.0.3 cyanogen and still, no wireless tether signal being emitted!
Found the solution by reinstalling the newest version found here

anyone else having the problem of wifi no longer connecting after updating TO froyo?
edit:
Okay just had coworker enable his nexus as a hotspot and I connected fine.
Must have something to do with the phone's wifi driver and home router.
Wifi still good for me.
Re: Wifi no longer working with paul's froyo
I see a bunch of people reporting alot of bugs in Froyo, i havent seen any bugs yet. My answer to OP is: No.

i can't get wifi to work on any froyo!
it's just obtaining the ip adress but not connecting
i'm having the same problem on my phone. i flashed the stock rom update-nexusone-EPF21B-signed, the the frf 50 rom and everything was working fine for a few hours then suddenly it stopped working. now when i try to turn on my wifi, it just scans then says it's disconnected then starts scanning again.
everything is working fine but i just can't get any wifi! :'(
Okay, glad I'm not the only one. Wonder how we can go back to older wi-fi drivers.

This, I think there's a lot of operator errors going on that are being blamed on FroYo

Hey if you got any ideas on what I did wrong, I'm all ears. All I know is wifi worked fine before switching to Froyo.
(but the new wi fi drivers didn't work on 2.1 either and i had to go back to the old ones)
Re: Wifi no longer working with paul's froyo
Mine disconnects after a while of not using the phone. Wifi on profile widget stays on. But in wifi settings it shows not in range which shouldn't happen anywheree in my apartment.
Need to turn off and turn onwifi again to reconnect.

if more than one person is having a problem, i'm certain it's not a user error like one person said it could be (quite an asinine comment if you ask me). it's never an operator error when you turn off your wifi and half an hour later you try to turn it on only to discover it won't turn on.....how the hell is that an operator error?
i didn't have any problems whatsoever. check the md5 hash, make sure your download was fine.
make sure you wipe everything, then reinstall. if you have old data cache'd, and then tried to flash the update, that may very well be the problem.
Yeah, having troubles connecting to 802.1x EAP Wireless Networks, PSK works fine for me at home.
Yes, I wiped, checked MD5 etc..
I'm using Pauls Rooted Froyo zip
i made sure to wipe data/cache/dalvik cache/battery and rotation. i do this everytime i switch roms. after 12 hrs of working fine, i just don't understand why it suddenly quit. before i flashed to froyo, i made sure to read up as much as possible to ensure i didn't miss a step. the worst part is, no matter which rom i'm using now, i have no wifi.
one thing i noticed is pre-froyo, when i flashed pershoot's kernels with new WiFi drivers i could not connect at home, but when i used kernels with older drivers, I was fine. That said, maybe it will work with other WiFi access points a la the point made about not working with certain WiFi router types. Will test when I have the opportunity.

Must have something to do with the phone's wifi driver and home router.
I had problems connecting to my router (a Belkin N1). I set a static IP on the Nexus One and then it works perfectly.
I have tried to connect to my work router and it got a DHCP lease fine and worked fine (only at 54Mbps G speeds).
Perhaps this new radio image has N enabled and something is screwing up with the DHCP lease. I will try to replace my home router with another N router and report back.
I had the same problem with a message saying connecting but not picking up the IP address.
I suspect it was a conflict with the Static WiFi app I was using. I've unloaded this and after restarting and re-saving the static ip details it connected up OK.
For now I'll have to switch between static and dhcp manually I guess....
I came from Desire R19. My wifi doesn't connect as well now, i.e. seems to need a stronger signal from the AP. Last week I was getting 2 bars of wifi for the AP in my office, and now I get 1 or none. I'm getting a bar or two less at home too. I'm guessing some kind of difference in the Radio.
WiFi issue I have seems to be AP manufacturer specific
At home
Pre 2.2 I could connect without problem to my Linksys WRT 600N, no problems, DHCP etc.
Post 2.2 I cannot connect, gets to acquiring address and then craps out and re-scans
At work
Cisco wireless kit, (no idea of type of AP) pre 2.2 connected OK, post 2.2 connects OK
WPA2 security on both setups
Hello, recently my wifi has been acting up. Sometimes it will say it is connected to my wifi network but no web pages or anything work. It happens after I leave my phone in standby for a while, and it will usually start working after restarting my wifi. After I restart wifi so many times it will disconnect even when it's not in standby (and more often) and then eventually the wifi switch on my home screen stops working.
I'm running Android 2.2 Froyo Cyanogen Mod 6 RC2 FRF84B using the jdlfg 2.6.32.9 overclock 300 mhz+1200 MHz kernal.

ok sounds like there could be two reason for this, either the rom or your router. First make sure you have the latest radio for your phone. If possible try a different rom or a nanadroid restore. on to the router, do you have other wireless devices in your home? Are you experiencing this issue on any other device? You may want to try connecting your phone to a different wifi connection just for testing. connect to any available open connection and test to see if the phone does the same thing on a different wifi connection. Now if it does then you know it's most likely an issue with your phone. if that's the case you would want to focus on the rom and or your radio.
If you do not have the same issue after connecting to a different wifi connection then it's not the phone but your home network. You will need to trouble shoot your router, good luck
I'm fairly sure it isn't my rom, although I did only notice it when I started wifi tethering on 2.2 (I never tried it on Eclair though, I only decided to root when I heard Froyo had been leaked). I'm on Cyanogen (I used to be on the stock froyo) and I still get the same problem, I also updated my baseband and I still get the same problem. As for my router I doubt it, my laptop never seems to disconnect along with my wii and any xbox my friends bring over. My sister's Droid also doesn't seem (emphasis on seem, she's not a power user or anything of the sort and I'm not even sure if she has her phone on wifi half of the time, and neither is she, the last time I checked it was connected though) have any problems (she just has a stock Droid, nothing special).
I've tried a newer version of Froyo (I don't have the latest build though atm, but that's because Cyanogen doesn't support it yet).
Does the Droid connect to wifi in any special way that other devices don't? If so then my router might still be a suspect, as I admit the firmware it's running on is glitchy (it actually worked better before I updated it (I was trying to get some remote router switch on my PC to work with it)).
Edit: I discovered recently that no other wifi networks come up when wifi bugs out, although it seems to only happen sometimes.
Fixed the problem, apparently it's caused by a glitch in the settings, when you change the wifi sleep mode settings so that it doesn't sleep after idling for so long the phone assumes it's been changed but it doesn't actually change. Downloading WifiPowerSavingOff fixed it.
I am having a wifi connection issue with CM7 nightly build 14&15. When i try to connect to my wifi it allows me to type in my passcode then proceeds to attempt the connection. It appears to be caught in a loop or something. Under wifi connection it shows scanning, connecting, then disconnected then it repeats. Wifi works fine under stock unrooted, rooted and nookie froyo SD. Does anyone else have this issue? I cannot post to android development yet. Thanks in advance.
I have a clean flashed 15 right now, and wifi is working stellar. Did you by chance not format cache/data, and still have a bunch of saved hotspots in wireless? I know a fix earlier was to "forget" all the saved wifi hotspots, and resave them.
Same problem I have been experiencing among others. It seems like if your router is using WPA you will have problems connecting. Switching to a different security encryption or wiping all remembered access points seem to be the only solution that I know of.
Yes, I formated system, data and cache when installing. CM7 works great on my Evo 4g, strange. I tried forgetting the hotspot and received the same error. Will try an unencrypted hotspot and will report back. Don't really understand why I am having this issues and others aren't. Thanks for the replies.

I've seen like 6 other people with this problem its not just you.
I'm experiencing the same problem of Wifi flashing on and off when I try to connect to a WPA encrypted router. Will try to Forget saved networks and see if that solves the problem. I'm running phiremod's version of CM7.
Mallinj. Same issue here with phiremod. Forgetting did not work for me. Let me know what happens for you. Thanks.

That wifi file is named nookie froyo. This definitely works for cm7?
Usually what I have to do is some voodoo with toggling airplane on, then let wifi loop for about five minutes before it finally connects.
Been having this issue as well, what I have been doing when it has been switching on/off in the Wifi Settings is hitting Menu > Advanced settings and waiting a few seconds and it usually connects just fine.

Yeah it works. It takes the working wifi file from nookie froyo and pushes it to your CM7 file.
Has anyone submitted a bug report with cyanogen yet?

I am really hoping I don't start having this problem. The nookie froyo wpa_supplicant file for me was never connecting to ad-hoc, and right now I am connecting to anything.

I had this same problem yesterday morning. What I had to do was forget my network's settings, turn off wifi, then go turn off my router, turn the Nook's wifi back on, let it sit for a few seconds, turn my router back on, then try to connect. Strange as it sounds, this actually worked.
Time pilot aka, Thanks for the tip! Will try it later today.

Finally
I was able to solve my connection loop issues. I tested WPA and WEP on my D-Link Wireless N router DIR-615 with no success. Tried toggling on and off with airplane mode. Tried forgetting my router, turning things on and off at different sequences and intervals.
Then I set my router to B&G only. Basically turning wireless N off and it worked like a charm. I am able to connect using any encryption method. So from my experimenting it was the wireless N protocol that was the issue.
For people out there with issues and want to keep their wireless router encrypted try turning wireless N off. Worked for me.
Thanks everyone for their input.
I have a very strange problem with my Droid 3 XT862. I've owned it for about a month and right after purchase I rooted and did the TBH radio hack, which worked like a charm. As of last week, though, my wireless tether no longer works. I have tried the built in Mobile Hotspot, Wireless Tether for Root Users, and Barnacle. The only thing that happens is that my computer connects to an unidentified network and will not truly connect to the internet. After this began to happen, I reapplied the TBH hack, but it is still not working. I read around the forums a little bit and heard about CM7 not requiring the hack, so I safestrapped and flashed to it, but the wireless tether still does the same thing. Is there anything I can do to fix this? PDANet still works, but it drains my battery insanely fast.
My XT862's cdma network is not working.
3g and 1x are all wrong.
I can't use them.
but the wifi works correctly.
I flash some roms which downloaded from internet, but 3g and 1x still not work
Is there anything I can do to fix this?

it worked. read below.
did you did something? like trying androidtether?
well i dont know how tethering works. but usually i have seen that tether shares a adhoc network. in the case of the droid 3, it makes an infraestructure network, like having a router.
well while trying the androidtether app in Gingerbread, (which i imported from ICS build, dumb me i know) (in ICS creates i think an adhoc because kerner dont allow native tether) well when i tried that it BROKE my tethering capabilities. i think it switched an internal chip and is not solved by reloading the software software.
summarizing. after 2 SBF and seeing it didint corrected the issue, i installed varios market alternatives including the official ANDROIDTETHER en market, setup and loaded each one of them (barnacle too). the last one was ANDROIDtether. i think this one did the trick, as after not working i uninstalled everything and retried the native one. and it worked.
now i can tether
hope it helps.
I'm using my Galaxy S i9000 to tether internet to my desktop. It works fine until the screen turns off. After the screen turns off, the connection becomes laggy, skype etc disconnects constantly, speedtest shows ping of 300-500 to nearest server (10-20 by default). I hope someone could help me out here. What to do, what is the problem, how do I fix this?
This happens on Cyanogenmod, I've tried 7.1 stable, nightly and CM9 ICS builds, also on Onecosmics ICS. Wifi Sleep policy set to always on. Stock ROMs working fine.
Thanks
I never experience this bug on CM7.1. Are you using Juicedefender or that kind of app, maybe they can kill the data connection?
not using anything, all of them were clean and freshly installed ROMs.
Have you tried to set sceen timeout to "off"?
Does it work then?
I didn't experience that bug either tho..
I've tried to set timeout to 30min, and if I not turn it off manually, the connection is working fine for the 30 min, after the screen shuts down, it becomes laggy as hell.
Should I try setting it to off, and if yes, how do I do that?
Also, I'm not sure if it's a tethering issue and not a Wifi one. Can't think of a way to test it without tethering. Any ideas?
Have you tested any tethering apps from market? Like Barnacle Wifi tether.
Have you tested USB tether? There are apps for that on the market also if CM's own usb tethering doesn't work.
Just now I flashed CM7.1 stable just to try out different usb tethering apps. Nothing works, everything is the same. I've tried easytether, quick usb and PdaNet. PdaNet came with some windows drivers for the phone which were different from what I've had before. I've tried to install those, no change. I should probably test wifi tethering just to see if it works.
I tested to wifi tether my 3g connection, everything works fine screen lock on and off. Tried to usb tether my home wifi connection to another computer, had the same problem. Any more suggestions? Thanks in advance
