Hey everyone, I have a G1 unlocked, rooted, and running CM6. I just got this phone, and last night I was playing around with Android Tether and got it to work with my archos101 via blutooth. After that though, it seems that my phone is now unable to conect to the internet via WiFi. 3G internet works fine, market works fine, and my widgets work fine, but when I try to go to a website via Wifi I get web page unavailable. It was working before I tethered, so I think this may be related. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
(I have already tried rebooting, pulling battery etc., adn phone shows it is connected to my network ssid)

This is probably a very specific issue that I'm experiencing but hopefully someone out there can help me.
I recently got an HTC Touch Diamond, running WM6.1. I use Internet Sharing on the phone and then connect it to my PC via a USB cable. I can then browse the web from my PC. If I now connect to my office VPN, it seems that the connection times out and / or is very slow. I can't even browse to other PC's on the network via the VPN connection as it times out. But I can ping the PC's so I know I'm definatly on the network.
Now I know what everyone is thinking... our VPN might be screwy. But if I use someone else in the office's phone (running WM6.0) I can connect and there is no problem whatsoever. The only difference is that he is on a different service provider than me (and of course a different phone).
I used to have a SE M600i before this phone and it worked perfectly on that (same service provider as now).
Has anyone experienced anything simular? Or have any ideas what I could check?
I've played around abit and found the following: When I take my SIM card and put it into another HTC running WM6.0 (can't remember the model) it works perfectly and I can browse our intranet sites over the VPN. So the problem is definatly limited to my phone.
I also used Internet Sharing on the other phone and then established the VPN connection from my laptop. I didn't change any of the settings so it is 100% the same on both phones as download from the service provider upon insertion of the SIM card.
On my phone when I'm connected to the VPN I can browse the network shares and download email, but as soon as I try and browse our intranet websites or try to connect to any database (using TOAD etc.) it doesn't seem to be able to retrieve data. Almost like the phone is not able to handle large amounts of data coming through... (i'm just guessing here)
Anyone know of any setting somewhere on the phone that could cause this to happen?
Finally got this working!!
I'm now using WMWiFiRouter to use my phone as a WiFi router and then connect to the internet from my pc. If I then connect to the VPN from my PC everything works fine.
I'm not sure if WMWiFiRouter implements Internet Connection Sharing differently than the normal ICS app on the phone, but it seems to work and it's pretty fast.
Can't believe it took two months - with absolutely no else seeming to have this issue - but I'm glad it's over now!!

Hi guys,
i can connect properly to my home wifi connection but i've some troubles.
i can use opera or rss hub [they work great even if i can't get flash working despite that i've installed the right cab] BUT i can't get emails, can't download weather or quick gps.
any idea?!?!
this is so strange.
ame here, I am having the exact same problems as of yesterday.
I can use Opera, and email but can't use quick GPS or update my weather through wifi.
I checked in the wifi settings on the phone and rather than saying connected it just says associated to network. Not sure if that has anything to do with it.
On the plus side, its a little reassuring to see i am not the only one having this problem at the minute.
did you try removing the connection settings to router, then reconnecting?
I have a g1 rooted with cyanogen 4.04 and I can connect to my wi-fi and use msn messenger for example. but everytime i try to use the browser to surf the web, after a couple of minute it disconnect and ****ed my router, so I have to unplug and plug my router to make my internet work again, so I cant use wifi with my g1 right now...I dont need a data plan sinceim always near a wireless network...I need help on solving this problem.
Ps; Im using a t-mobile g1 with fido network.
reflash the rom. that might clear it up.
ive already tried , its not the problem...anyone havin this issue...
I still need help ive tried everything and its doesnt work...
The problem is I can connect to Wi-fi like all day and stay connected, but once I try to go on the market or use the browser I get a disconnected after few minutes and need to unpug and replug my router to make my internet work again...Im using wpa and cant use wi-fi at home, but at a friend house who is using the same d-link router but with no protection work just fine...
Hello,
I got the 2.2.1 SuperBled Rom installed on my G1.
Since a few days i cannot use the connection over WiFi.
after turning it on it finds all the access points around and also builds up a connection to my router. i get an ip from my router and everything seems fine.
but i cant use that connection, nothing is working, no market, nothing through the browser, no mails etc. the connection is displayed as connected all the time.
i have not changed any settings on the phone nor on the router.
it worked fine before. it also doesnt work with any other access points like at my uni or friends place.
i can still use the internet through mobile networks.
any suggestions what the problem might be ?
thanks in advance
cheers
I am having the exact same issue but a Rooted Nexus S with CyberGR v10.
I got a problem with the wifi after I install the rom id Andro-rc3
I replace wpa_suplicant, in order to get an ad-hoc connection. and it worked. before that, my phone does not even detect the ad-hoc. and successfully
I can connect to wifi. surf smoothly. and others. but for some applications do not. like facebook. instagram. and certainly I never managed to upload anything. unless I move to 3G networks
can anybody help me?
