hey guys ..
i can't think of any reasonable reason why it's not connecting to my router !!
i'm using my wifi connection with many laptops ..
and the GalaxyS was working properly yesterday too !
but now it's not working .. it finds the network and start obtaining IP adress for it but it can't , it just try to do that again and again
i assume that there is a password...you tried re-entering the password?
if so and still not working.
what did you do in the phone yesterday before it stopped connecting?
installed anything new?
yes there is a password .. i tried to enter it again
and i tried "forgetting this network" and start the connection over with no result
i didn't install anything new, but i updated some of the programs i have !
What ROM are you currently on ??
i have had this issue many times with darkys ROM
i'm using an official one ,, the one came with the phone (Froyo)
thats weird....
what about the kernel ?? or is that stock too ?
stock too
2.6.32.9
[email protected] #53
hmmmm........
i dont know how to help you.... whenever i get this problem i re-flash the kernel / modem / ROM.
I think you may need to do a factory reset, in order to get the wifi back. BUT !! to make a full backup you will need an app like 'titanium backup' which requires you to be rooted.
I can pretty much guarantee a reset will fix your problem.
Also if you dont fancy going on to a custom ROM, have you checked your up to date with KIES for the latest firmware ??
ok if i backed up my data ,, will it back up my apps too ??
or only emails, msgs and numbers ?
titanium backup will back up all your apps and app data and settings.
then after the reset, re download from the market and do the restore and hey presto !! job done.
ok i'll try that and i'll let u know
it worked .. thanks
well done thats good news !!
Reboot
I sometimes get this problem, too. I'm on stock ROM and kernel. When it happens I simply reboot the device and problem solved!

Try this.
Firstly, what brand of router do you have in your house? You need to find out if the router itself has restrictions on how many 'clients', or devices, it can have connected to it at any one time. To know what brand of router you have also helps with what the "Internet Protocol' (I.P.) address it has. It should be something like,
192.168.0.1
or
192.168.1.1
or similar. You will find out this information, on a Windows computer that's connected to the router, by clicking the Start Button, and where the 'Search programs and files' bar is at the bottom, type in (without quotes) 'cmd' and press Enter. At the prompt, type this exactly:
ipconfig /all
and the IP address of your router will be shown next to 'Default Gateway'. You then type those numbers only into the address bar of Internet Explorer/Firefox/Opera/Chrome and a pop-up will appear asking for Username and Password. Username is often
admin
and the Password is either
password or admin
You can then look for Wireless Settings that will show you if there are restrictions on how many actual devices can be connected to your router at the same time. While you are in the config of your router, it's a good idea to have researched the Primary and Secondary DNS (Domain Name Server) addresses of the Internet Service Provider you are currently signed up with. Just Google 'your internet service provider's name' along with 'DNS settings' and you will find the info you need.
You can then input those details into the router directly through the Settings menu, and change it from constantly seeking a domain to a situation where the router knows exactly where to look for the internet. This can speed up your internet a bit. With all the info you've grabbed, you can also set static (permanent) IP's for every client (computer/device) that's connecting to the router, making the whole network in your home faster.
Okay, now to your Galaxy. If your router is allowing a large number of clients on board it's wireless network, then it's a case of your Galaxy and the router not talking fast enough about assigning an IP address to your phone. The way you fix that is quite simple, assign a static IP to your Galaxy. With wi-fi turned 'On' on your Galaxy, go into Settings/Wireless and network/Wi-Fi settings. You'll see the name of your network there, and it should say something about 'obtaining IP address'. Now, here's the fun part.
Click on the left soft-key, and you'll see 'Scanning' and 'Advanced'. Click on 'Advanced', and a new menu will open. Down the bottom, you'll see 'IP settings' and under that, 'Use static IP'. Put a check in that box, then click on 'IP address' (below the checkbox). A little window will pop up, asking for an address. You now need to put a value in there that's similar to your router's IP.
Example:
If your router's IP is 192.168.0.1, then you type into the box 192.168.0.3
You need to make sure that the last digit (or digits) you use is different from any other computer using a static IP that's connected to your router.
Once you've clicked OK, scroll down a bit and you'll see more options. You need to tell the phone what 'Gateway' to use. That number is the same as what you found when you looked up the IP address of the router. Next, 'Netmask'. That's 255.255.255.0 Now, 'DNS1' and 'DNS2'. They are the Primary and Secondary DNS addresses for your Internet Service Provider, that you researched earlier.
Now you should find you'll connect to your router a lot easier, and have a more stable connection. Note, however, if you go roaming about and try to connect to a wireless 'hotspot' somewhere else, you'll need to go into the same area of Wi-Fi settings and turn Off Static IP in order to connect to the 'hotspot'.
Hope that helps...

Hi.
I recently bought my s730. Quite pleased with it, but one thing bothers me.
When i connect to my wlan at home (zyxel_2602hw_d1a WPA-PSK TKIP) i'm able to connect to the router, but I don't seem to be able to get an connection to anywhere outside my own network. I tried using Live Messenger, IE, Opera and Skype, but nothing happens.
When I'm using GPRS or EDGE it all works smoothly.
Any suggestions?
Do you have your connection set to automatic or only through your phone network? I have seen a few problems with that.
Also, double check that you are entering wep or any other security protocol correctly, took my 6 tries before it would work, it looked like it was connected to the network but it really wasnt (just personal experience with this phone.)

I do have the connection settings in both IE and Opera set to automatic. I's there somewhere else I have to change settings?
I'm quite sure i typed the password correctly. I also checked the client list on the router and the phone showed up correctly.
Gah, cant remember where I saw it but there was a setting in the phone itself for what to connect to.
Another thing to try under the wifi connection open your saved connection and go into it and see if you have it set to connect to the internet or just to the private network under "network type" in the Wi-Fi sub menu of Wlan settings. Its late and I cant think right, i'll see about checking more into it later...
I solved this problem - change your WLAN security on your WLAN router only on exactly MAC adressee (no any WEP) and your Wings is allowed to connect and all will be OK, work OK - Skype, IE, Opera. Problem was only to find MAC adressee my Wings
Wing + WRT54GL
Hi!
I have an S730 and a Linksys WRT54GL router. I've tried to use wlan with my phone, but it doesn't working. I want to use WPA2 with AES without Radius. Is the WPA shared key (router) same to network key(phone)? without security and encryption, it's working well.. I cannot see any syslog. That could be so easy..

Did you check network settings? I mean e.g. if you don't use DHCP server and you didn't fill in right settings phone may connect to network but may not get outside. I know it can look like "lame" question, but sometimes even a master can do a newbie mistake..

usually it is in section WLAN Advanced setup - WEP Encryption - disable and in WLAN MAC Filters - active + allow asotiation with table of adress your Wings - aply . I have Zyxel Prestige 660HW.
I'm sure that DHCP is active, and that I get an IP.
I tried disabling security on my router, but same problem. Connects to my router, gets an IP but still nothing works

Your DNS are also provided automatically? Or could you ping (through some app) to any IP address of any server on the internet? If you succee, then we can look for a mistake with DNS.
Problem solved!!!
Okay. Found the cause for all my sufferings...
Power management. under WLAN-settings i changed power setting from power save mode to best performance...
thanks for all the help. hope next time I have a better question
wifi problem
hello everybody,i have tried several times to connect to my router at home but no chance at the end i got this warning saying:
cannot log on to the wireless network this network requires a personel certificate to positively identify you.
Help!
I have a Netgear DG834T router as provided by Sky. I have one wired and two wireless connections running into it (let's call them WD, WL1 and WL2 respectively).
On the connections page I can see all of them under "attached devices"...but now I want to connect using my Kaiser (actually an O2 XDA Stellar)
What happens...
On the Kaiser, I get an IP address (assigned by DHCP) as normal - but can't access the internet - or at least, can only access it very rarely - http://www.google.com can't be found, but http://www.bbc.co.uk can. No idea why.
On the router, under "attached devices", not only can I NOT see the Kaiser, but WL1 and WL2 also disappear. WD remains visible. The router cannot ping the IP address of the Kaiser (timed out). If I disable WiFi on the Kaiser, then WL1 and WL2 are immediately visible again. Internet connection on WL1 and WL2 works, even when they are not visible.
I HAVE connected to this network before without any problems.
What the hooting heck is going on, and how do I fix it?
Thanks!
Time to troubleshoot! What happens with this phone on another wireless network. We need to determine if it's the phone or the network. Do you have any friends with a phone like this? Can you use their phone on your network? Do you have any ROMs flashed, has this phone ever been on the network without problems?
If the phone works on another router try looking for firmware updates for the router. Those things really do need to be updated often and it could have something to do with that.
Only have access to one network :-(. Might be a couple of weeks before I can access a hotel one or something like that.
Think next door neighbour has similar phone, but different provider...will try if he'll let me!
No ROMS flashed.
It connected fine when I first had it. As far as I know, I've changed nothing since then.
2 out of 4 answered...with an option on three...I'll get back to you as soon as I've beaten up my neighbour and stolen his phone...
Joke!
There should be somewhere you can go to test that wireless. I can walk outside the building I'm in and find one.

You = US, me = UK. We still think the biro is a recent invention...
Neighbour's phone on my network gives the exact same problem. I've also noticed that when I click "Renew IP" on the Kaiser it doesn't work...it gives me 0.0.0.0, but will occasionally flash up the correct IP address. It's alomst as if the connection is being lost and remade every few seconds. The status ist gives me is "associated to network"...is that different to "connected"?
I've been trying to solve this on my router, but none of the settings seem to make any difference.
Same here
I get the same with the router from sky.
Kaiser says I have an IP address, 192.168.0.5, but the it doesn't show up on the attached devices on the router.
What I find that works is hit renew IP maybe twice until you get a really wierd IP address like
169.254.*.**, actually not sure if I'm picking up another network, but for some reason I don't think I am.
I can then browse the web and sync via wifi.
Really pisses me of that it says that it has an IP address but doesn't connect.
1) Make sure you dont have a proxy set up on your wifi connection on your device.
2) The 169. address is your device getting an unauthorised IP address as the router did not receive the correct encryption key from the device.
3) You can check if its an encryption thing by simply logging in to the router (192.168.0.1 in your web browser on pc) and changing the settings to turn wpa off and testing it. The routers username and password are on the card - its something like "sky" and "admin"
Yeah I agree, there is something up with that router.

No, proxy set-up as the device was bought unbranded in US.
Because there are issues with this router, encryption and media streaming devices, I have only restricted the mac addresses with no encryption.
Still don't know about the 169. ip address beacuse doesn't seem to come up as am ISP.
Now then, how wierd is this?
After all these issues and kind of giving up on it as a bad job, I also noticed that out on the road, my GPRS wasn't working either - TomTom couldn't connect to the "plus" traffic service.
I get on the phone to O2 who told me that my phone hadn't been "provisioned". After one false start where they didn't seem to do anything about it, I have just (literally) had them tell me to go to the O2 Operator settings and tell it to update the "O2 UK Post Pay_GPRS" and reboot.
GPRS now works. And magically, so does my WiFi - IP address negotiated and full access to internet and my router's setup page granted. Working like a charm again.
So - seems to me it's an account setting, and nothing to do with either me poor ol' router or me nice new phone.
For completeness, I was occasionally getting the 169 IP address too, so it sounds like we have EXACTLY the same problem - suggest you get onto your service provider ASAP.
That's why I've never had an Windows Mobile device before.
Symbian, iPhone, everthing works fine with my WLAN. WPA Key and go go go
My Kaiser has a WLAN connection but the IE wont' show any page. Why?
First thing is to isolate the problem. Are you able to access the internet via Actice Sync? When connected to the WLAN are you able to access any other services on the internet such as windows live to check your email or if you have HTC HOME the weather info?
Also check to make sure you are getting a proper IP address, Gateway, and DNS server from the router to your PPC. Task Manager is a good utility which lets you run the Ipconfig/all command. You can also use the PING command in Task Manager to see if you can ping anything on the internet.
If you are getting the proper TCP/IP settings trying accessing a site using its IP address instead of its Domain Name to islolate if the problem is with the DNS server settings in PPC.
If still no luck post the results from the above troubleshooting and we'll go from there.
Correct IP Address, check! I forgot to mention...
Thank's for your help, I'll check the steps in the evening at home.^^
I just can connect to my router's IP address and see the configuration page. My device has it's own static IP.
IE says "site cannot be displayed, because the connection has been interrupted".
Do I have to quit HSPDA and Bluetooth? I guess not.
Let me know if you can connect to this http://134.126.10.50/

No, same error.
Surfing via ActiveSync is no problem.
If you said that it's possible to connect to router but not outside of router, then do you use MAC Access Control and/or MAC Fillter Internet Firewall on your router?
Possibility MAC Filter Internet Firewall. Without MAC Access Control specified, it's not possible to connect to router.
Hopefully it helps.
Best regards,
TwoAce
I'm using a MAC Filter, but the MAC of my Kaiser has been written to the MAC list. I'm trying without the filter...
Previously I could connect to my home WLAN, but I could not perform any surfing until I came across a suggestion to goto Settings->Wireless LAN->Power Mode slide to Best Performance.. and viola.. I am good to go..
don't know if you have the same issue, but jus my 2 cents.. ohh n I was using Polaris aka Touch Cruise..
I have the same problem as [email protected] has - the root cause may or may not be the same however. Here is what I found in my case -
(i) Connecting to WLAN - no probems, works every time
(ii) While connected to WLAN, sending/receiving emails through my exchange server or browsing my company's intranet site - no problem
(iii) Surfing internet while connected through USB cable/active sync - no problem
(iv) Can't connect to any internet site while connected to WLAN
I found that when connected through USB Cable/active sync - the proxy server address seen when I go to Settings->Connections->Connections->Edit proxy server is the correct company proxy server address. The moment I connect to WLAN - this field becomes blank. Even if I edit and insert the correct address, it doesn't stick. The moment I disconnet from WLAN and go and check the proxy server address - again it shows the correct address. So the root cause of the problem seems to be that something is wiping out the correct proxy address while I am connected to the WLAN.
I remember seeing a thread somewhere discussing this vanishing proxy settings problem. I wasn't able to find it today but I intend looking again when I get an hour or so.
I agree with roomer11 about the power settings, i have two HTC tytn ii's and i had the same problem with both(one mine,one is my wife's)...i'm running wpa2-psk now but does it on wep too...
It work's.
I have deactivated the MAC filtering. I doesn't make any sense, because the MAC I've entered is the right one, but ok. Must be a Windows Mobile voodoo thing.
hello all..ive posted several threads about this..even saw other people having the same problem..
connects to wifi route fine..i have mac address ip..etc says its connected..but thats it..cant do anything else with it..cant connect to internet at all
used the same settings i have with other wm6 unit..it works fine on that..but not my diamond
why why why !!!!!!!
had this damn fone for about 4 months now still cant get it to connect !!!
had wm fones since they first came out...never have i had this problem before
What about DNS??

are you sure that you are using the "right" encryption? perhaps you have wpa2
(tkip or aes) and the device checks only wpa? or you enter the wrong password in
wep, then the connection looks like it is established, but you can do nothing with it!
just a thought...

Stupid question tbh but I see this sort of thing every day nearly..
Your subnet is the same as the router yes? Does dhcp allocate one out to you or have u got a static ip on the phone?
Despite being connected to the wifi access without being on the same network you will not gain net access.
Who is your carrier for cell service? If you're on AT&T, and you've run an auto-setup CAB file for your cellular network settings, then you may need to double check your connection and proxy settings. Usually the solution is to select the correct network connection and NOT try to use your carriers proxy when you're connected via Wifi.
If you ARE on AT&T, then do this... Go to Start > Settings > Connections tab > Connections > Advanced tab > Select Networks button. Set both drop down entries to MEdiaNet... for most this will have NO adverse impact (assumes you have a data plan too). OK to save selections.
Now go back to those MEdiaNet drop down selections. Edit either one of them. Go to the Proxy Setting tab. Uncheck the second box indicating this network connection uses a proxy. OK the settings... enjoy non-proxied Internet freedom via Wifi.
If you're not on AT&T, maybe the same proxy issue could be present. But I couldn't help you with your settings. Hope this helps.

hey..thank you for having little think about it..but im in the uk..t-mobile and those settings having nothing to do really with connecting to my wifi at home..except tell my phone it can..which i did..
all the settings are correct...exactly the same settings im using on other wm devices but when they say its connected i can actually do something..rather than on the diamond where it says its connected but doesnt allow me
ive set the phone up identical to another wm6 phone in every way..that connects fine and i can use my wifi ..this phone i cant
Have you tried connecting to a different wifi router, a friend or whatever?
If you can connect there, then that narrows down the problem to your settings, or your router, or the router setup
Do you know anyone else with a Diamond that could try to see if they could connect to your router?
If they can connect but you can't then you could take a look at their connections. Or it could mean a faulty device. If they can't connect either, then this will give you some clues.
I'm assuming that you've deleted the connection and reformed it. Did you choose work or the internet? Have you tried changing that.
Have you tried changing the Authentication to Shared?
Each time you make a change you need to let it 'set' for a few seconds and then reboot.
Can you connect to the internet via Activesync pass-through?
Sorry, that's all I can think of at the moment. If something else occurs to me I'll post back.
Hi.. I'm not sure if this will help or if you already have tried it.
But I had the same problem and the solution was this:
Pres start -> Settings -> Connection -> Wireless Lan -> power mode
Now use best settings, instead of battery save. ( Im not sure if the translation is 100% right. Translated from danish Diamond)
At the start I couldn't load any pages with Wi-fi, though there was no problem with the connection from the router. But now it works like a charm

Good luck.

-Go and try another router of a friend or internetcafe.

yep gprs works fine..looking in the wifi i have all the mac address ip speeds blah blah you could ever wish wish for..just as you would expect if it was connected..which it says it it..but only associated lol
My Galaxy S has been connecting fine to my home network lately and the connection has always been strong as well. Since late last night though it won't connect. It says connecting > obtaining i.p > connected > disconnected and continuously repeats this cycle. My mates Samsung Europa can connect and so can my p.c and laptop, so it is obviously an issue with my phone. I downloaded WeFi and that has the same problem. Does anyone have any ideas?
Sorry my English, flash a kernel
Which kernal and why?
I had this EXACT problem just earlier when I upgraded to 2.2.
My phone always used to connect fine until the upgrade, and afterwards i got the same error.
Anyway what you need to do is to find all your router settings (you need a computer for this);
click start > run > cmd
in the command prompt type ipconfig and gather the following data:
ip adress: (your ip will be the same as your router's ip apart from the last set of digits (just make sure to make it a digit not already being used otherwise it will clash). 5-10 is a good option.)
gateway: (same as found in cmd)
net/subnet mask: (same as found in cmd)
Depending on your router you may also need a primary and secondary DNS: (generally the router ip)
With the following information gathered, on your phone click aps> settings> wireless and network> wifi settings> and then hold the left soft key to reveal the advanced tab. In the advanced tab click static ip and enter all the information about your router you gathered earlier.
After entering the router settings click and hold the left key again and press save.
Hopefully afterwards your phone will connect automatically as mine did, or just click your router SSID agian and it should connect.
I had the same issue after I upgraded to froyo. The way I fixed was actually just unplugging the router, unplug the modem, wait 10 seconds.... reset everything.
Ever since then 0 problems.
Thanks Johno.

Amazing mate, i really f.ing appreciate it. I've flashed so many roms, so many wifi drivers, deleted dhcp_list so many times, created so many tasker profiles and tried so many apps just to stop wifi error and disconnecting and mate, your method has fixed it!
