[Q] Galaxy Can't Connect to Cisco Wireless Router - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Have the Cisco Wireless router WRT160N and have tried all set-up options on the Galaxy. It finds the WPA/WPA2 network and have entered the passcode but scans and disconnects. Also tried the WPA and the passing of PINs but still no connect
Hope someone has an idea that can try
Tks

Has it ever connected to this device?
Has it ever connected to another WAP or router?

Thanks PB, the answer is "haven't tried." I just got it and trying to set-up. I am going to head out this afternoon to a hotspot and see how goes.
Samsung tech says it should be OK but Cisco want talk since warranty is out

OK, drove out and came upon an unsecured access point and it did connect so is in one of my set-up
????

I have the same router and connect with no issue. I did have problems connecting to a different Cisco router and what I did to fix it was delete all shared wireless connections then started from scratch and it worked using wpa2

Can't connect my N1 with Linksys router

Hello
My N1 can connect easily to all kind of wifi routers and modems without problem but not with my fitness club's one, they have a Linksys N160.
My N1 can detect the signal,enter the password but then it's stucked with the message ''getting ip...''
Where is the problem? is it a know hardware or software compatibility stuff?
Sometimes rebooting the wifi router helps. Also make sure that when the guy over at your fitness club reboots the router you don't have the wifi of the club saved. delete the saved wifi profile, reboot the wifi router and then try. Cheers.
Already tried it several times. I saw that OS4 of iphone/ipod have the same problem with router enabling Wireless-N, I will ask him to limit the router to B/G
I also had similar problem with Linksys WAG54G2 (at latest firmware). Then I changed to much cheaper adsl router, TP-LINK WD-W8960N and no more connection problem.

I had problems using my Nexus One on my SMC Barricade 802.11b/g/n router when 802.11n was enabled. Turned it off; problems were gone. I don't think that works well yet, though some people have said otherwise. Could be a router-specific issue.
Ok so it's a WAG160N to be specific.
He tried to use mixed B/G instead of mixed (which would imply N too) but it still stuck at getting ip...
I told him to throw this router in the garbage because anyway SE and HP mobiles can't connect too,but he said he would do it but his boss will never accept to pay a penny more
My parents had a router that did exactly the same, my phone got stuck on Obtaining IP, whilst the missus 5800 connected and broswed just fine.
It was a crappy old thing and they replaced it the other week, now I can connect and browse just fine.
I also use a linksys WAG160N.
bought a nexus one, could not for the life of me get an internet connection.
turns out dns on router is poofed, so i just set DNS from my isp manually on the nexus one together with a static ip and booya interent at full 802.11n speeds.
sometimes its the simple things.
This sounds similar to when I set my router to channel 13 or whatever the max was on it. My N1 would only sometimes get a connection, but would eventually drop it and stay off. Solved it by selecting a lower channel (WifiAnalyzer suggesten channel 1 as the best alternative to channel max) on the AP.
I can see that in CM6 nightly that I have since started using I can choose regulatory domain, and thereby open up channels previously blocked. If you can't change anything on the AP this might help you solve the problem on your end.
So suggestions if none of the posts above me provide a solution is to run WifiAnalyzer and see how the channel-graph looks.

[Q] Hero won't connect to WiFi

So, I've searched for a bit, on here and Google, but not having much luck. My phone has always been good at connecting to WiFi hotspots. However, I am currently visiting a house that has a Wireless N router and using WPA2 security, and it won't connect.
Is it true that these phones have issues connecting to that or is there a fix?

Well the hero only has b/g wireless capabilities, change the wireles router to also brodcast in g mode, since n will not work.
Here is the odd thing. I mentioned about it to the person who setup the wireless network, and he said that the router is broadcasting in B, G, and N. My phone detects it, but when it attemps to connect to it, it says "Disconnected". Am I doing something wrong or is there something missing in my phone?
My phone connects just fine to my N router. There might be setting restrictions that need to be changed on the router via the administrative computer

WPA2 issue

I read a lot of threads around wifi issues and all seems to round up on dhcp settings.
What I see is that dhcp settings are not involved in the problem but I see that if I try to connect to a WPA2 protected network I have problems.
If I change the network settings to WEP or free, the tablet get authenticated in a second!
Does anyone else encountered the same problem?
I've got four WPA2 networks defined and the Tab connects to all four w/o any issue. What sort of difficulty are you seeing?

Not with all WPA2 network I can't get the tab connected.
In my home dlink wireless I have problems. Sometimes tab gets connected in one second but for the major number of attempts I have tab trying to connects without success... all what I see is "connecting". I think it's not a dhcp issue because I don't see "obtaining IP address" in those cases so I think it's in loop on authentication stage.
Also, I tried to change encryption method to WEP on dlink network and the tablet gets connected every time in one second, not more...

Note cannot connect to WiFi - virgin media super-hub (uk)

So, basically, I got my note yesterday (wooo ) and i wanted to connect it to my wifi, which with previous phones has not been an issue and is not an issue for any other device in the house.
It keeps saying Authenticating ----> Disconnecting -----> Disabled.
I am unsure whether it is the router or the phone.
any help is appreciated!
thanks
Oliver
what encryption you using on the router? are you using 2.4ghz of 5ghz ? made sure the password is correct?
mine connects without any issue to my superhub
i am using 2.4ghz and the password is correct...
what encryption?
what channel is it broadcasting on?
WPA auto and im not sure what channel, sorry.
its on to auto seek the best channel
got any other wireless devices to test?
might want to set it to wpa2 and change the password on the router then try connecting again
Cheers! changing to wpa2 has let me connect =D

[Q] My Note connects to WIFI but won't connect to the internet

Hi,
As the title says, I have created a new Wifi network at home. All my devices are connected and working without problems and my Note connects but once I try to use the internet it won't work.
It connects to the other wifi network at home without problems.
Reason I want it to connect to this network is because of its range.
The modem is a TP-Link W8960p and my wireless extender is the TP-Link WA830RE
Thank you in advance
Some questions here:
1) You use the extender with other devices as well and they get Internet connectivity without problems?
2) Check in the advanced wireless settings what IP adress you get and if gateway and subnet is correct.
3) I assume you use DHCP so you can check if the DHCP range is used up
4) Try to configure your Note with a static IP adress making sure all network config is correct.
Sorry this is just a starting point, i hope this gets you a clue why the Note can't access the Internet. Good luck!
First of all you need to check with another device, whether it is working or not
Also had the same problem, also was a wifi extender in play and i had to use a static ip so ittl work. The problem was that the dhcp was a different one as on the main router..something like that at least.
