anyone else having the problem of wifi no longer connecting after updating TO froyo?
edit:
Okay just had coworker enable his nexus as a hotspot and I connected fine.
Must have something to do with the phone's wifi driver and home router.
Wifi still good for me.
Re: Wifi no longer working with paul's froyo
I see a bunch of people reporting alot of bugs in Froyo, i havent seen any bugs yet. My answer to OP is: No.

i can't get wifi to work on any froyo!
it's just obtaining the ip adress but not connecting
i'm having the same problem on my phone. i flashed the stock rom update-nexusone-EPF21B-signed, the the frf 50 rom and everything was working fine for a few hours then suddenly it stopped working. now when i try to turn on my wifi, it just scans then says it's disconnected then starts scanning again.
everything is working fine but i just can't get any wifi! :'(
Okay, glad I'm not the only one. Wonder how we can go back to older wi-fi drivers.

This, I think there's a lot of operator errors going on that are being blamed on FroYo

Hey if you got any ideas on what I did wrong, I'm all ears. All I know is wifi worked fine before switching to Froyo.
(but the new wi fi drivers didn't work on 2.1 either and i had to go back to the old ones)
Re: Wifi no longer working with paul's froyo
Mine disconnects after a while of not using the phone. Wifi on profile widget stays on. But in wifi settings it shows not in range which shouldn't happen anywheree in my apartment.
Need to turn off and turn onwifi again to reconnect.

if more than one person is having a problem, i'm certain it's not a user error like one person said it could be (quite an asinine comment if you ask me). it's never an operator error when you turn off your wifi and half an hour later you try to turn it on only to discover it won't turn on.....how the hell is that an operator error?
i didn't have any problems whatsoever. check the md5 hash, make sure your download was fine.
make sure you wipe everything, then reinstall. if you have old data cache'd, and then tried to flash the update, that may very well be the problem.
Yeah, having troubles connecting to 802.1x EAP Wireless Networks, PSK works fine for me at home.
Yes, I wiped, checked MD5 etc..
I'm using Pauls Rooted Froyo zip
i made sure to wipe data/cache/dalvik cache/battery and rotation. i do this everytime i switch roms. after 12 hrs of working fine, i just don't understand why it suddenly quit. before i flashed to froyo, i made sure to read up as much as possible to ensure i didn't miss a step. the worst part is, no matter which rom i'm using now, i have no wifi.
one thing i noticed is pre-froyo, when i flashed pershoot's kernels with new WiFi drivers i could not connect at home, but when i used kernels with older drivers, I was fine. That said, maybe it will work with other WiFi access points a la the point made about not working with certain WiFi router types. Will test when I have the opportunity.

Must have something to do with the phone's wifi driver and home router.
I had problems connecting to my router (a Belkin N1). I set a static IP on the Nexus One and then it works perfectly.
I have tried to connect to my work router and it got a DHCP lease fine and worked fine (only at 54Mbps G speeds).
Perhaps this new radio image has N enabled and something is screwing up with the DHCP lease. I will try to replace my home router with another N router and report back.
I had the same problem with a message saying connecting but not picking up the IP address.
I suspect it was a conflict with the Static WiFi app I was using. I've unloaded this and after restarting and re-saving the static ip details it connected up OK.
For now I'll have to switch between static and dhcp manually I guess....
I came from Desire R19. My wifi doesn't connect as well now, i.e. seems to need a stronger signal from the AP. Last week I was getting 2 bars of wifi for the AP in my office, and now I get 1 or none. I'm getting a bar or two less at home too. I'm guessing some kind of difference in the Radio.
WiFi issue I have seems to be AP manufacturer specific
At home
Pre 2.2 I could connect without problem to my Linksys WRT 600N, no problems, DHCP etc.
Post 2.2 I cannot connect, gets to acquiring address and then craps out and re-scans
At work
Cisco wireless kit, (no idea of type of AP) pre 2.2 connected OK, post 2.2 connects OK
WPA2 security on both setups
I am having a wifi connection issue with CM7 nightly build 14&15. When i try to connect to my wifi it allows me to type in my passcode then proceeds to attempt the connection. It appears to be caught in a loop or something. Under wifi connection it shows scanning, connecting, then disconnected then it repeats. Wifi works fine under stock unrooted, rooted and nookie froyo SD. Does anyone else have this issue? I cannot post to android development yet. Thanks in advance.
I have a clean flashed 15 right now, and wifi is working stellar. Did you by chance not format cache/data, and still have a bunch of saved hotspots in wireless? I know a fix earlier was to "forget" all the saved wifi hotspots, and resave them.
Same problem I have been experiencing among others. It seems like if your router is using WPA you will have problems connecting. Switching to a different security encryption or wiping all remembered access points seem to be the only solution that I know of.
Yes, I formated system, data and cache when installing. CM7 works great on my Evo 4g, strange. I tried forgetting the hotspot and received the same error. Will try an unencrypted hotspot and will report back. Don't really understand why I am having this issues and others aren't. Thanks for the replies.

I've seen like 6 other people with this problem its not just you.
I'm experiencing the same problem of Wifi flashing on and off when I try to connect to a WPA encrypted router. Will try to Forget saved networks and see if that solves the problem. I'm running phiremod's version of CM7.
Mallinj. Same issue here with phiremod. Forgetting did not work for me. Let me know what happens for you. Thanks.

Guys check out my thread. I was having the same wifi loop problem.
It's [Problem 1]

I had the same issue toggling airplane mode on and off fixed the issue for me however the little airplane icon stayed for a while then just disappeared after a reboot

That wifi file is named nookie froyo. This definitely works for cm7?
Usually what I have to do is some voodoo with toggling airplane on, then let wifi loop for about five minutes before it finally connects.
Been having this issue as well, what I have been doing when it has been switching on/off in the Wifi Settings is hitting Menu > Advanced settings and waiting a few seconds and it usually connects just fine.

Yeah it works. It takes the working wifi file from nookie froyo and pushes it to your CM7 file.
Has anyone submitted a bug report with cyanogen yet?

I am really hoping I don't start having this problem. The nookie froyo wpa_supplicant file for me was never connecting to ad-hoc, and right now I am connecting to anything.

I had this same problem yesterday morning. What I had to do was forget my network's settings, turn off wifi, then go turn off my router, turn the Nook's wifi back on, let it sit for a few seconds, turn my router back on, then try to connect. Strange as it sounds, this actually worked.
Time pilot aka, Thanks for the tip! Will try it later today.

Finally
I was able to solve my connection loop issues. I tested WPA and WEP on my D-Link Wireless N router DIR-615 with no success. Tried toggling on and off with airplane mode. Tried forgetting my router, turning things on and off at different sequences and intervals.
Then I set my router to B&G only. Basically turning wireless N off and it worked like a charm. I am able to connect using any encryption method. So from my experimenting it was the wireless N protocol that was the issue.
For people out there with issues and want to keep their wireless router encrypted try turning wireless N off. Worked for me.
Thanks everyone for their input.
So for about a week now, I've been having horrendous wifi issues on my device running CM 10.1 nightlies. My problem being that my phone will remain connected to wifi but no actual connection is present. It's very sporadic and highly annoying. After the problem occcurs, it still says i am connected but i can't actually access the internet.. Temporarily disabling wifi and re enabling fixes it for a couple minutes then it happens again. I'm pretty sure it's not a hardware issue as i can use my school wifi for an entire day without disconnects or anything but i can't get mine to work. I've tried carbon rom, diff nightlies, clear data+ cache but nothing works. This also happened on an xperia running CM (my dads). Any solution??

So the issue is on the router side, do you have a dual band router? if so make sure 5ghz is up and running. If you have a single band router thats capable of 5ghz, make sure all you wireless devices are capable of 5ghz freqency and if so switch it over.
Also Ive fixed this/ or similar issues on networks by disabling QoS in the router settings, id recommend disabling it and see if it helps

The strange thing is I haven't changed any router settings at all and before last week I've had absolutely no issues with wifi. Now it seems I can't keep a connection for more than a couple minutes max. Also, sometimes (not always) I'll try connecting to a different router or access point and it'll connect and the next second it'll instantly disconnect. I'll try your suggestion and hope it works

Just restarting the device works for me, using eternity project kernel stock version, I don't know for CM though, try installing latest nightly and install a custom kernel, most of them are better than stock CM kernel

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.

One phone is on Flex's 4.3 Stock with Goodies. The other is my wife's stock phone with the latest 4.3 update.
After the update, both phones are reconnecting and disconnecting on home WiFi router constantly (every minute) This did not happen before the update. Wireless laptop still connects fine to the router.
Are there phone settings to tinker with regarding this issue? OR do yall think it's a modem issue. It should also be noted that my phone connects just fine to my work's WiFi.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
Update/ Bump
Things I have done to my router thus far, and am still experience constant disconnect / reconnect
Set the router to B only
Set the router to G only
Set the router to N only
Changed the channel of the router
removed WEP/WPA Password
Upgraded firmware in this router
reset router
kicked router
Both phones are still having this issue. Do you any of you folks think it could be some conflict in handing out IP Addresses by the router?
ten etessar
I am having the exact same issue. It was happening on the stock ROM after the 4.3 update. Yesterday I rooted and flashed Stock w Goodies, the problem is still there.
Yup happening to me also but I thought it was just my phone not playing nice with the router. Problem persists even on the 5.5 roms

I was having the same problem..so I turneded off roaming and it still happened somewhat...then I reflashed the separate radio and it's much better

What radio specifically did you flash?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4
This has happened to me as well. Changing the radio to the newest one helps a little as does changing to Roam Only or No Roaming. Also, placing the phone onto airplane mode and then connecting to wifi alleviates the problem. Unfortunately the most reliable fix I could find was flashing back to 4.1.2.
My theory is that something about how 4.3 handles connectivity in relation to cell service borks connectivity with all other radios on the phone because when I used my Moga with 4.3 it would constantly disconnect when the radio switched between Sprint and Roaming. But I'm not a developer nor do I understand much except for the basics.
Same issue. Only with certain apps though, like Facebook. Pretty sure it's not me because I'm stock unrooted and all my other devices work fine.
Yep, same here I am also experiencing an issue on Badseed's rom where I get a constant popup every 3 minutes or so asking if I want to allow data access for this trip or for all trips. No matter what I select it keeps coming back, even in settings where I select to allow all types of roaming I am still having this issue.... Any ideas?
I already had the latest 4.3 firmware update (soff) and then a couple weeks later I flashed the latest radio found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2406330
I also disabled roaming plus I changed the lte/cdma option under data settings to Automatic
So far so good
