[Q] Internet connection problem - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everybody!
This is my first log in here, because I got a new Nexus One this weekend and I heard that your forum is one of the best about it.
So, I have a problem with the internet connection. My Nexus One is connected (the internet connection is exellent and I use it now with my laptop) but it just doesn't works. When I try to use the browser application or an another app, which needs internet connection, the application says that I have a problem with the internet and I can't use it. Any ideas ? Thanks!

Does it do this on all routers or just your home router if it's just on your home router?

It does this on all routers. Everything is okay now. It works fine. But that happens periodically and I don't know what's wrong with my phone. Now I'm trying to flash my phone from 2.2 to 2.3 and we'll see what will happens with it.

Ok well if you need any help with flashing the update (like if you're on a carrier tweaked ROM) then just ask.

WM6.1 & Internet Sharing (on a Diamond)

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!!

[Q] wifi MAC is missing after doing factory reset

Hi everybody,
I'm having an extreme problem with the galaxy tab wi-fi. The thing is that, I bought my tab just 7 days ago and everything was fine. The only issue I got as usual like others in this forum or internet was the wifi adhoc problem.
So, I got over everything I could and found on this forum and from many others as well. I've tried the wpa-supplicant file replacement and the methods way described in this forum in all way. Finally, what I could get close was to make the connection between the tab and laptop adhoc hotspot. But no luck on getting the internet still.
Finally I thought of factory reset and doing this the main problem appeared. After doing the factory reset, it shows that the MAC address for the wifi is unavailable and so for the bluetooth as well. I am just stunt to see this and no way I can get back to my original state. So, it's currently a tab without a wifi. Please help me or guide me to the solution of this problem to recover my wifi mac address and to make connection with the ad-hoc connections.
For your note, the android version was froyo (2.2), never updated to any other. I also have the galaxy S II which runs on Gingerbread (2.3) and that doesn't have any kind of problem with adhoc networking or so. That just gets connected through connectify straightly.
Please back up me with your solution available and thanks in advance for this.

No connection over WiFi

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.

[Solved] Wifi - no internet from my router

Hi
I just received a new note from rma, everything looked to be working fine, except wifi internet.
With my previous note i had no problems, connected to my router and had internet through it.
With this new note it connects to the router without any hiccups, i can even use the phone to move my computer's mouse over wifi, but i don't have internet access on the phone.
I installed Gerret's miui rom as soon as i took the phone out of the box so i'm not even sure if it also had the problem with the original rom but i did turn it on with the original rom and i think it did not have.
Anyway, i tried to give a static ip to the phone on the router settings (a TP Link TL-WR1043ND), i tried changing the wifi channel, tried it with wpa and open. It always connects to the router, but i never have internet...
I have another android phone and i put a mobile card in it and turned on the hotspot on that phone, connected the note to that phone through wifi and i do get internet on the note that way ... so it looks it is a problem with my router and this newer note version. :/
Any ideas to fix it?
Thanks
Ok, got it working after updating the router's firmware. xD
