[i9001] Unable to connect to WiFi 802.11n - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm using the latest Arco CM9 ROM but I'm totally unable to connect to my 802.11n router. The phone actually identifies & saves the network but it is unable to gain access to internet. Using the 'connect to network' achieves nothing but the phone reports that it the network is 'Saved, secured with WPA2'. Disabling encryption doesn't help either, it still won't connect even if the network is set to open.
Other devices are able to connect though.

I have the same problem on my DHD. Connection is clear and the phone always finds my network but won't connect via 802.11n. 802.11g works fine. I've researched many themes in this forum, but 'no answer' always. I've just tried a module for enabling n-mode in HTC-kernels, but it didn't work. At the moment I'm using TrickDroid 3.0. Anyone has solved this problem?

Change your kernel dude

Mr Clean ROM and Wifi problems

My wifi connected no problem on older ROMS, now it will only connect with the security on my router disabled. If I try to set it to WPA or WEP, it finds the connection but won't connect. I don't really wont to turn off the security everytime I want to use my wifi.
I have a Belkin F5D7632-4 Wireless-G DSL router.
i have the same issue here, it say "connectin" but never connect.
But it does connect without the security? check your authentication method and make sure that what you have on your phone matches your router. I actually did this a while back, and it was driving me insane cause it wouldn't connect. Hope that helps you guys out.
Using WEP on a 802.11g and it works fine for me.
At first I didn't get any options to set the key but once the network was detected I was able to go into "network cards" and put in my key. Works fine with that.

The massive wifi problem that many experience

When I turn on my phone at work, the wireless connection (open unsecured) connects and works for a few minutes. After some time, it disconnects and without rebooting my phone, I cannot establish a wlan connection.
This is oly the case at work. At home it works flawlessly, but it is another network kind.
Anyone found a solution to this problem? I saw a lot of threads about this but no good answers.
I am using duttys v3.
Not sure. Perhaps there is some sort of time out on your work network for inactive devices, or dhcp ip releases or something weird and "networky" like that?
Or perhaps your phone is going into a power save mode if you are not using it?
Just general ideas, I don't have this particular problem
I dont think many people have this issue! you must not have a setting correct, try downloading KaiserTweak and adjusting the timeout and also take a look at the routers settings I find it strange that a business would have an open network for security issues

I work at the university, and the network is unsecure. You have to enter login and pass at a webpage to gain access.
I cannot reconnect at all once ive been disconnected. So it should have anything to do with kaisertweak or timeouts.
I have tried every setting and combination. I have tried to select work/internet settings. Ive tried to tell the phone its a hidden network / not hidden network. I have tried to use power save / performance mode. Ive tried to turn off 3g, bluetooth, phone (everything basically).
When I tap connect, it says connecting and then it immediately goes to "active" and tries to connect to another network (which I dont have access to).

I have worked out the problem.. first if its a WPA enterprise connection, make sure its set to WORK and not INTERNET setting. it will work. my only works with schaps versions not duttys
on my old pda (Acer N50 premium) I had the same problem with my unis network... it would only work (if at all) for a few minutes then nada... but at home it was absolutely fine, quick stayed on and totally responsive... I wonder if it has something to do with the rubbish way unis run their IT...?
Wasted thread
Many do not have this issue.
According to what's being said here by the indiviuals with issues, you're having problems connecting to a certain network...not all networks.
If it were all networks; your device, settings, equipment or rom would be the common denomenator. Since it's one network, it's that network.
Just because a network is or appears to be available, that doesn't mean that you can connect to it.

no, it could be the phone software. Lets says that a string is added to the registry if the network you are connected to disconnects you; a string that makes the phone cancel connections to the network. And lets assume that the network disconnected you because there is a hidden firewall in the phone software that blocks ping requests, thus making the network believe that the connection is lost and thus disconnecting you. Then we have a moment 22, which is basically something wrong with the phone.
As some readers already pointed out in this "wasted thread", when changing the rom (in one case) or when changing settings from "internet" to "work" (in the second case) there is a great possibility that this problem in fact has to do with phone software and not network.
In my case, it just happens to be neither of the mentioned solutions or any solution that I have found in other threads.
One thing you may want to check is that your wifi is set to max performance. The issue may also be that there is a DNS cache issue, in most cases it can be resolved by manually reconfiguring the connection.
I have been successful in configuring my phone's WLAN to connect to everything from open APS's, WEP, WPA, RADIUS and AP's with proxy redirects, so I can tell you that as with most cases, it's human error.
I have tried max performance.
How do I resolve a dns cache issue? Manually reconfiguring the network did not help (only thing that helps is a reboot).

WiFi connection troubles

Dear friends,
I'm experiencing problems connecting to secured WiFi spots.
The device sees and connects to secured WiFi points correctly, the connection is good and stable. However it seems that nothing works through them - I cannot open any website. Honestly, I didn't try to connect to unsecured networks (I had no chance to find such).
Does anybody have the same problem? Is it solvable? Should I change something in WLAN configuration?
Please help.
Thanks.
Hello,
Try to change your wifi "Power mode" to "Best performance".

Did you looked up if your HD has a IP, and is listed in the list of dhcp clients (if you are using dhcp). For me it seems that the connection isn't set up correctly, but with the information given above its just a guess.
Same problem here. After two months of great operation and no changes, suddenly this.
This and similar problems are all over the threads.
Ditto, exactly the same probs, cannot acquire an ip address via dhcp from my home router.
Set one up manually and the HD connects to the network but cannot open up any sites, cannot connect to email and cannot download any rss feeds. It seems that any prog that needs to connect to the web cannot.
Same problems trying to connect using the mobile network. Tried a hard reset with no joy. Am going to try flashing a new rom.

Wireless Tether never works for me!

Hey guys so ive tried ever wireless tether app under the sun and none ever seem to work for me.
Im running Cyan's 4.01, PdaNet the wired version works flawlessly for me when i tether it to my computer, however done of the wireless ones EVER work for me, ive tried both aNetshare and the "Wireless Tether for Root" App that is floating around on the forums here, neither have ever worked for me
i have absolutely no problems connecting my computer to my G1 via wifi when using these programs, however the connection is always Peer to Peer and Local only, never internet and it never works
any ideas?
What OS are you trying to tether with?
Ensure your wifi network settings have DHCP set....
ALSO if you're wifi uses a NON-Microsoft Wifi settings software (e.g. Intel's or Broadcom) disable it and use the microsoft stack.
Are you trying to connect via Ad-hoc? Also are you using the WEP encryption? Does it give you any errors or just doesn't seem to connect?
The computer im connecting with is running Vista.
Im not using any form of WEP encryption is 100% open, it has no problems connecting peer to peer but the internet is inaccesible via tethering, it connects fine with no errors but it states local only with no internet access
Also as another side note, i use a program called SwiFTP which runs FTP via wifi so i can transfer file to and from my computer and G1 wirelessly , however that system never works, whenever i go to enable it, it says "Error Opening port, check your network connection" and the program does not work, ive tried changing different ports, i used the default port 2121 and it cannot open it, i also tried other random ones like 23 etc and it can never open a port or seem to work
Are you trying to connect via Ad-Hoc?
No, im using "Wireless Tether for Root Users" app downloaded off this forum
I think that is the problem. When you try to connect to the G1 on your computer, you have to set up the computer to connect via Ad-Hoc, not on the G1.
Not sure of the entire setup process, but go to the control panel and click on set up network connections (or something along that line) somewhere in the options of connection types there should be Ad-Hoc. You will have to enter the network name and confiure the WEP encryption, but it is pretty easy.
You should be able to figure it out from there. Let me know if you have any more problems.
access control option
have you checked the access control settings? if this is enabled, you have to manually allow the machines internet connection.
Hey, I had to apk's fo rthis the signed_andtether_1_52-pre2.apk did not work. The file labeled Signed_andtetehr_1_52.apk works everytime.
Firewall?
Sure your Vista Firewall is on? If so FORCE it off and try again...

[Q] Can't connect to 802.11x EAP TLS WiFi

Hi! I'm trying to connect my friend's Razr i to our university wifi network. The configuration is: 802.11 EAP TLS, using a client certificate and a username, no password. The issue is that when I set up the connection and choose TLS as the security protocol, the settings are not saved correctly. In fact, after the connection fails, when I choose modify network, the security protocol has "magically" changed to AKA. I'm going crazy, I have already tried the Leap wifi app suggested in the Razr forum, but it only allows me to connect to networks with a password.
After rebooting, the network seems to be correctly saved but it just won't connect, it stays "Connecting..." for a few seconds then suddenly stops. That's it.
Thank you in advance.
Finally got it to work after messing around with all the settings. It's still buggy but it connects at least. I just can't figure out what could I have changed to make it work.
