i just got my captivate last week. i love it, but i have a problem. whenever i try to connect to my school's wifi, it wont let me browse, it'll show at the notifications bar that im connected with full bars, but still wouldnt let me browse. for example, when i type google.com, itll load for a while, but after a couple of minutes itll show me webpage not availble. this doesnt happen when im at home where im using our own wifi. is there a solution for this?

Hello all,
Was wondering if any one else was having this problem, i cant see my home wifi, but all other wifi works, ex. Work, plubic... if i make a guest network it can see it, but not the real network. Any ideas?

try and add the network manually (as if the SSID wasn't being broadcast) see if that works, i had a similar problem and did this and it kicked the wifi in the seat of the pants and it started working again.
Tried that, still not finding it. Would the security level / type of security have any thing to do with it?

Try going into settings /wireless settings then hit wifi settings from there hit menu then hit advance and change the channel to 14 I think its 11 by default hope it helps good luck

same thing happened to me. what I did was...I made my phone "forget" my home network then refreshed it and it found my home network and I reconnected. haven't had a problem since.
Hi guys
I have problem with 3G connection through application, but wifi is fine. All that I can do through 3G connection is go on a internet browser and surf. But if I open some application which uses the internet so do not connect..
How I said through wifi is everithing fine, but through 3g is not.
I tried wipe, factory reset and clear cache from but nothink helped...
Goto -> Settings -> Wireless Networks -> Mobile Network -> APN
Is there anything there?
If there is find the settings for your carrier and double check them
re:
Yes, of course there is configuration for 3G work... I said in a internet browser I can surf, but I can't use internet through apps as gmail, market etc...
Can it bee that the network provider has somesort of problem with the network or the gmail and market servers they are using is down. Once i have gmail problem but that wasn't the phones fault The server Google used was down with somesort of problem. Must say that strange problems ppl has with they phone if connection via wifi works but not 3g? Then it must be fault in settings or fault i the network.

I do not think that, because I have this problem around 1-2 months
So you can not connect via 3g at all from application?

Yes, of course..
Ok if you can use the browser and it works the setting/ access point is right. Very strange problem indeed

I have a similar problem.
If the phone is only on wi-fi connection, gmail, internet, market, daily briefing (accuweather) and maps are working fine. If I switch the wi-fi off and switch APN on, only the market works.
how's that?
I can get online fine while using wifi, but if i'm not at home i get an error stating this url is blocked. Been that way since i got the phone last year.
I upgraded to froyo the other day and it asked wether to connect via wifi and 3G and i clicked to allow...still won't connect if not on wifi. Using Dolphin browser and tried stock with no luck. Thanks

sounds like you dont have a data plan on your phone. call ATT
Search default apn att and manually enter in apn under settings if u have att

Nevermind, searched on here for the info and set it up using that....works now without wifi!
Thanks a bunch rjblack11
i have the same problem how did you fix it ?
OTA?
was that an OTA update? or a manual ?
I have a LG Thrill 4G running stock FROYO/v10e 2.2.2 that will not connect to wifi. I cant even set up my google account on the phone. When I try it doesnt search for a wifi network, I have to enter it manually, and then get an error saying cannot establish a connection with the server. In the wifi settings it is stuck on turning wifi on. I cannot get into wps push button request or add a wifi network. I have looked through all applications and cant even find one that has anything to do with the wifi. Is it possible that the wifi file has been deleted from FROYO?? Can it be reinstalled, or can I reset the FROYO somehow? I am currently trying to do the urgrade to GIngerbread and then ICS, but of course I am having issues with it. If I get it to go through will it fix the wifi issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I haven't been been able to successfully install the update as of yet. It keeps erroring out on me on the second step, before it actually even gets to the update. I have uninstalled and re-installed the lg mobile tool, and the drivers multiple times, and keep getting the same result. I got frustrated and haven't tried again in two weeks. Any tips on getting the update to work would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
use a diff usb cable, change to a diff desktop using usb ports on the back of the tower.
I had similar issue before, only to discover that I had a flaky cable.
