Sorry for the noob post.
I was attempting to install cyanogen, following the full update guide on their wiki
It is currently running the stock rom. and this would be the first time i have tried this.
Installing clockwork mod seemed to go fine, however when i restarted it i could not enable wifi or data network. It also restarted regularly. I performed a factory reset through the settings on the phone, but after that i still cannot connect to wifi or data networks, and the rebooting has increased in frequency so now it will only remain powered up for a few seconds.
I can still access download mode fine, and it does not reboot when on that.
What should I do?

I was successfully running CM 6.0.0 for several weeks when suddenly i noticed my 3g data connection was no longer working at all. no icon on the taskbar or anything. it's checked on in the settings, but not working.
i have tried:
1. hard reset (pulled battery for several minutes.)
2. factory/data reset
3. airplane mode toggle
4. data toggle
5. reflash radio
6. flash a differnt radio that i know has worked in the past
i'm running out of ideas. any suggestions?
Try reflashing Cm6 over with no wipe meaning just flash the rom and reboot oh and u might wanna try wiping dev cache hope it helps good luck

thanks for the suggestion. i had already tried those things without success. however, i was finally able to fix the problem:
1. nandroid backup
2. wipe
3. install fresh rom (or other asop rom i assume)
4. use wifi connection to connect to network
5. settings > about phone > update phone > update profile
6. data connection was restored.
7. restore nandroid backup
8. back to normal

Just FYI for future reference, the "Update profile" tool is only available in Sprint-based (HTC Sense) roms. AOSP only roms (aospMod, CM6, DD) don't have this tool, so for now you will have to nandroid back into a Sense/Sprint rom to update Profile and PRL each time you need to do that.
If you are with CS; they have been having issues with their data stream. Mine was acting up the end of last week.

my connection completely quit...no sign of working at all. updating the profile was the only that worked and it worked immediately.
I am having issues also i am running a secse based rom updated prl profile cleared market data and gtalk data ect and still can't connect to gtalk or download from the market. I even reflashed my rom any suggestions?
I have searched for the past thirty minutes and have not found a solution so i decided to post in the place where every person seems to know the answer to every question. Anyways, my tp succesfully got set up in ICS and WIFI turned on at first for me to do my original setup, but after rebooting to flash the charger fix and new kernel, my wifi will not connect. I tried a fresh install to make sure the kernel was not the issue, to no avail. When i try and slide the wifi on/off switch to on it just slides back and clicking on the button does nothing. I also tried to add the power widget to the main screen and hit the Wifi button from there, but that was also borked. Any help would be appreciated.
Try setting your router to a specific channel I put mine on 9 and it works now. I was having wifi issues after reboot but after setting the Chanel on my router they went away
If I forget my network, then reboot, then reconnect it seems to work fine. I tried a few other "fixes" I have read about and nothing else seems to work for me at this point...
The problem is not my network, its the fact that i cannot hit the "on" button for wifi

The OP did make the problem clear!
Looks like a reinstall may be needed.
try fixing permissions from CWM.
If that doesn't work, I suggest to have a look at the logcat entries while trying to switch on and off the Wifi, you may see the reason for the error there.
What version of CM9 is intalled? did you install any special kernel? What channel is your wifi on? (I changed mine from 11 to 1 and it's stayed connected for days now!)
Try a full cache and dalvik cache wipe in ClockworkMod. If that fails, then do a full wipe, re-install and try again from scratch.
This happened to me when I updated to Alpha 0.5. I had to go back and reflash the bricked kernel which i previously installed. I think he made a change to the wifi settings and if I remember correctly he told you how to go back to stock cm9 if you wanted to. But if you installed bricked before that's your problem, reflash it in CWM
bricked kernel uses a different WIFI module, so you need to have both in sync (kernel and driver).
If it worked on first boot, I presume he didn't change the kernel, so something else must be causing his WIFI to fail (fail to start, not fail to connect)
As we mention before, I will go for permissions, cache and get a logcat for the error
Permissions did not work so I wiped and started fresh for the third time....well I guess third time is a charm because I am posting from the TP right now thanks guys.
Before I startת I tried to find this problem also search on Google and here but could not find any information about this problem.
This night I did not put the device to a charger because he had already 90% battery, so I left it disconnected,in the morning I got up I saw the phone is turn off, I tried to turn the phone light up and the ATT screen turn on,
I went and when I came back after 10 minutes I saw that the phone is still stuck on the "Galaxy S" screen.
I removed battery, changed, and it's still stuck.
I'm running version CM7.1,
The phone can get into the recovery menu.
Can anyone help me?
I do not understand in the android system and I don't have any backups of my pictuers...
Any chance to save the phone?
update: I search for a solution, and found on the CWM the option of "Mount USB storage" and I copied my pictures to my computer...
so now my new question is how can I get the phone to turn on again? only format and install new rom?
I can use CM7.2 zip file and install via the recovery menu?
you can go to cwmr and can do a data wipe which will uninstall all your apps and data but will not touch your sdcards
You won't lose your pictures on the sd card. If you are still stuck, try wiping dalvik cache from recovery

I have a similar problem. Like eidoll32, I did not plug in my cappy and when I went to turn it on the next day, I was only able to get a boot loop at the AT&T screen. Currently, I cannot get into recovery, but only download mode.
I originally rooted the phone with the Galaxy_One_Click_Root tool, and installed CyanogenMod 7.1 for the captivate, when CM7.2 went to RC1, I flashed that from CWM, doing a full wipe. Later I wanted to try ICS, so I flashed AOKP - captivatemtd - M5 b30, doing a full wipe (twice).
That's where I was when this happened, and where I am now.

well if you formatted user data and everything is clean you can go ahead and install a custom rom or flash a stock rooted rom that is provided in the dev section and the wifi issue should fix itself.

I would suggest the following:
1. Read up on fastboot. This will allow you to recover from most things with this phone.
2. Use fastboot to flash a custom recovery.
3. Use the custom recovery to flash a custom rom.
If this doesn't work... Download the nexus 6 factory images (google will help with this). Then just reflash stock and see if it works.
There's literally 0 reason to root stock before flashing custom roms on this phone.
Also, make sure that you unlock your bootloader.

You could start it in bootloader mode and restore factory.
You could also try another wifi connection (go somewhere else).

the problem is that i have rooted my phone and before reseting my phone i forgot to install a custom recovery now my phone is locked and when i connect to a wifi network it doesnt go past "checkn connection" plz help as it shows "Device is Locked Status Code:2"
As someone mentioned. You need to read up on fastboot.
You softbricked your phone it seems.
Gonna need a PC/Mac/Linux to fastboot it and fix it.

If you did a factory reset, all your personal data was lost, but the stock ROM should still be present. Your phone isn't damaged based upon your posts, but you do need to do some reading and understand what it is you are doing before you do damage your Nexus. Start at the Nexus 6 Sticky Roll Thread and read the tutorial on ADB and Fastboot. Then read the Nexus 6 All-In-One Beginner's Guide.
To resolve the "Checking Connection" issue you're currently having, take out your SIM card and try pressing "Skip" at the WiFi connection screen. If successful, you won't have any connectivity but will have fully booted into Android. From there you can access Developer Options, and enable OEM Unlock. Actually unlocking the bootloader requires a computer, and until the bootloader is unlocked, you won't be able to flash anything to the device. So, start reading.

I don't think that would work.
After factory reset, he'd need to log in to his original account. So needs wifi or internet connection for that (or another phone which can share the same account credentials via nfc). Failing that, as others mentioned flash a useable system to get working wifi.
Shoot, I keep forgetting about factory reset protection. Likely because I have Enable OEM Unlock active.
So I rooted my Note 5, installed custom recovery twrp and kept stock rom on my marshmallow phone.
The thing is that after i use wifi and turn it off , I get the 3G icon of connectivity but its not connecting. I have to manually shut down Mobile data and turn it back On so it works again.
Has this happened to anyone before?? anything i can do to fix it?
