I didnt fin ANY help for this problem, so i'm forced to ask it by myself.
Im using cm7 boype's modded version.
Firstly i couldn't connect my home wifi. I saw every router but not mine. I changed regulatory domain to 13 and it's ok now, but there's still problem with reconnecting. Because its look like after turning wifi on in background (from status bar for example), it starts scanning but not with regulatory domain set on 13 channels. I have to go into settings, then manually click 'scan' and then my wifi router appears... It's weird for me, so i ask you all for help.
Thanks,
Hbo
From Boype's aroma installer you can chose a kernel with a wifi fix, i don't know if it would help you but you can try it, afaik you won't need wipe your data

My wifi seems to disconnect from my wifi when the screen turns off, despite me having changed my settings to never sleep. When I look at the wifi settings it says "Unsuccessful Connection". I didn't have this problem with my MT3G.
Anyone having similiar issues or a fix?
wifi Reconnection issues
I'm having the same problems with mine.
It initially connects to wifi fine but when the screen goes off it sometimes drops the connection and will not reconnect without a reboot.
I have tried setting it to keep the wifi when sleeping but it makes no difference.
I found a few similar reports elsewhere and followed most of the suggestions, like changing routers, changing wifi channels, setting an IP address instead of DHCP etc. Nothing seems to make any difference so far.
Mine never seems to reconnect after waking up, but I just go into the Wireless settings/Wifi settings window (where it lists all the Wifi networks in the area) and press on the network name and it brings up a dialog allowing me to connect again. I press the Connect button and it instantly reconnects. No reboot required...
Try increase your router's "Group Key Update Interval". I had the same problem with my D-Link DIR-655. I changed mine to 10 hours and it's working fine for me now.
i have the issus that my wifi is "connected" i mean i see the logo at the top bar but after a few minutes i don't get any update from the internet like gmail oder twitter when is wake up the device from sleep i get them back again
maybe it something with the Group Key Intervall but i can't switch it on my speedport w700v router
I just tried switching mine, highest it can go is 7200 seconds, so I bumped it to two hours instead of one. linksys
my wifi reconnects when I wake the screen almost 100% but it's not reliable.
I have to go to wifi list and reconnect. Sometimes I disable wifi and then re enable, conects no problem. Irritating
i heared that switching the encryption from wpa/wpa2 to only wpa2 will solve this issues, will try it when i am at home
...seems like almost everybody got this problem.
for example with my Hero i don't had this problems so it's something with the W-Lan card of the Nexus
Got this problem too but will try the suggested work arounds when I get home tonight
found out that my encryption is wpa2 not wpa/wpa2 ... damn so thats not the reason
and my router cant configure the group key intervall
I don't have this issue, running CM5.0.3.1, mine is set to Never Sleep and it does not. My connection does not time out either. I connect to two Trendnet TEW-637AP's at home, in mixed b/g/n mode with WPA2-PSK mode security.
Could it be, that this prob exists just for nonrooted phones?!
i've got mcr 1.6 which is rooted and don't work
i think it's a problem with the wifi card and the wifi router
rooting just means that you get read/write access to all folders
doesn't change anything on your wifi connection

Not exactly, it means also modified system files, which could include those that interface with the wifi chip and those that control the sleep state of the device.
Also, Cyanogen (and most other custom roms now) are running on a different (newer) kernel.
yes i know
but mcr is although running on different kernel and it's not working there
i don't think its an issue bei the stock rom and mcr
maybe here is someone with CM where the wifi drops?
edit:
okay i tried it with the desire rom version from modaco, the same failures, maybe i try a CM built now, and see if it changes
Code:
[B]Rom [/B] [B]Router / Access Point[/B]
MCR 1.6 | Speedport w700v | not working
Desire MCR | Speedport w700v | not working
CM 5.0.3.1 | Speedport w700v | not working
i think this means it's not a rom issue, its something with the routers and access points in combination of the wifi card from the nexus
That´s strange..perhaps just accidentally, but: yesterday I installed "Task Manager" , which has an auto-kill function.....since then my Wifi reconnects perfectly
maybe because it automatically does anything inside of the 10 minutes which keeps the wifi active?
which one did you install?
there are a lot of them on the market
which developer?
edit:
ah i found a strange issue, today i was at the wifi of my girlfriend, she has the same router BUT i don't have the wifi problems there, with the same model of router thats very strange
i found another work around, i set my twitter client to 5 minutes update intervall, this means every 5 minutes is network traffic and the connection won't drop after my 10 minutes public key intervall change
don't know how much battery is used while setting from 10 to 5 minutes but i think it should be okay
Try a different WiFi channel
I've seen reports of WiFi connection problems being solved by changing channels on the AP. Channel 10 seems to be a consistently reliable choice.
Hi there.
I have WiFi at my Home. Whenever i get back home after work i have to manually connect my WiFi. Each time i have to go to Settings, then Uncheck the WiFi mark and then recheck that and then my WiFi connects, dont know why its happening.

i think it is somthing with the ROM ver, since i downgrade to JPJPG i am having the same problem, you can install all kind of 3rd party that will search for WiFi every xx minutes, personaly i think it is neccesary, i do agree it is annoying.
my ROM is original, i just rooted my SGS thats it, never used Custom ROM
My wifi keeps cycling between on and off on my Nook. Sometimes it will stay on, and appear like it wants to connect to my wifi, but all it does is get stuck at the "obtaining ip address" portion of the process.
What do I need to do to remedy this?
I found the same problem, I can say that the Froya rom is almost perfect for me, except the problem that the WIFI lost and cyclical on and off. I tried many ways recomeended but no luck.
If someone can help to solve this please !!!
I had this problem before, and it was because of an improper flash. I skipped a step of wiping data and cache before applying the flash.
Settings -> Date & Time -> UNCHECK Automatic
that solved most of the problem for me.. its still unreliable, but atleast it doesnt get stuck in a loop anymore.
Maybe you should delete all networks registered on your phone. in case you have chosen to remember some WiFi networks in the past.
Then turn off/on your wifi network

Hi Folks,
I'm trying to solve this annoying (big) problem.
I have CM7.2 by Xperiafan V5 as ROM
and X8_07-ICS_Alfs as kernel.
but this problem happened also in other ROMS GDX mainly used up 1 week ago.
The problem is: I use my wi-fi connection for a while, even 3-5 days. No problem.
Then when I reactivate wi-fi it seems looking for I dont know what and it rest activated but not connect my network.
I tried to change advanced settings: channels, rescan...
Nothing works...
The only solution is:
1) I have to manually delete all networks
2) disable wi-fi
3) then enable it again so it this time rescan correctly the networks
4) re-select my network
5) re-insert the pwd.
Sometime, as 1 time on 5-6, even this dont works, so I have to add after point 1 do a REBOOT and it works :-/ :-| :-/
Some suggestion? THX a lot!!!!
I have the same problem but I,switch the Wifi off and re activate it I find networks.

this happened to me...
try this https://market.android.com/details?...nBlcnNvbmFsLmpoamVvbmcuYXBwLldpRmlQaWNrZXIiXQ..
enable wifi using 'stock' wifi on mobile, and scan network with this... I have no problems with this anymore
Which of WiFi security type do You use ? There are problems with gaining IP address from WPA/WPA2-PSK.
I have problems to, but what I'm doing is:
1). Connect [it's telling me, that it's out of range]
2). I simply press "scan" and that's all
I have a major problem with wifi on GingerDX & stock kernel, it drops the connection everytime it is idle, and it many times doesn't come back by itself or the statusbar shows it is connected, but there is no connection, and in these cases i have to switch it off and on. There is no encryption on the router. I set the wifi sleep policy to never. This doesn't happen on stock ROM. Any solution to this?

Set the WiFi sleep policy to "Never" to avoid WiFi going "ZZzzzzzz" when the phone is idle (lockscreen kicks in)
I mentioned that i already did that.
And it does it too when it is awake... i already downloaded many apps to keep the wifi awake but no success.
In this case it would rather seem you have a compatibility problem between the ROM and your Access Point / Router.
Try switching channels or secure your network to rule out your problem comes from tons of strangers using your wifi.
I think i switched channels before, and no success. The router doesn't accept connections from unregistered devices so even without password, nobody can connect from outside.

LOOOL ... MAC addresses are sniffed in a matter of split-seconds.
Anyway, since you are certain you already did everything in the book, and outside the book ... maybe try changing your WLAN cable past a new one.
There is no WLAN cable on the router, the antenna is connected directly to it. By the way 2 computers are connected through wifi and their connection is constant. But if it works on stock rom then there is something in the rom itself.
I suggest edit twilan.ini to make N standard work. This solved my wifi problems on SDE .
Search XDA for n standard on x8

I'm gonna test it for some time, I will report back if it worked or not.
I have similar problem myself as well. I even upgrade it to latest rom and it still does that. I already set wifi sleep policy to NEVER yet the damn thing could randomly decide to cut off. As soon as I wake the phone up it will re-establish connection. Ever single time. Why does it not try to re-establish connection while the screen is off? The funny thing is that I have no idea when it drops connection. The logging has no time stamp that I could track down events.
I believe sincerely that there's still some bugs to be rid of
Try enabling N standard, since i enabled it the wifi stays connected, for now.
i had the same problem.. U just have to use nAa or Alfs for cm7 kernel and rom which works with these kernels and no problems anymore
