I've been running Dorregaray's camera preview3 for 2 days, and the last OaT 0829 for about a month before that. Wifi worked perfectly. For some reason I can't understand, wifi suddenly stopped working yesterday. It was working fine on both preview3 and 0829. It had intermittent wifi throughout the day, and by yesterday evening the icon wasn't even showing up in the notification bar.
It recognizes the network, but when I put in my password and tell it to connect it just says "Authenticating" and then goes back to "Saved" without connecting. The network wifi is connecting fine with a phone and a laptop, and the LAN is working fine with a desktop.
I've tried turning the wifi off and on again, reconnecting to the network, using a different network (my phone's wifi hotspot), and flashing the latest 1007 nightly. None of these have worked. Anyone got any other ideas or solutions? Thanks!
EDIT: WebOS says "Unable to connect. Try again." Hardware issue?
EDIT 2: fixed. After some Googling, I booted into WebOS, ran the automatic diagnostic at Device Info -> application menu -> Diagnostics -> Automated, and got
Code:
wi-fi code: 1000
After some more extensive Googling, I connected the Touchpad to the PC and used WebOS Quick Install terminal to run
Code:
ifconfig eth0 down
ifconfig eth0 up
which fixed it for both Android and WebOS.

Rather odd wifi issues...
I could connect when home (Alltell Fios Router) wifi, and to my D2 when in 3G/Tethering option without any issues.
Fios Router = WEP security,
D2 = wpa/wpa2 security -- both connect fine.
I'm at work, trying to connect to my company wifi, each time it fails to connect. i'm 99.9% sure they have Cisco wireless products here.
Basically, whats happening is that my NC finds the AP's around me, I select the one I normally connection to... wifi tries , then just says "disconnected".
I have another person at this site as well, who has CM7_18 Nightly and he's having the same issues (somewhat different).
Anyone having similar issues?
I've rebooted -> power on..nothing
powered off -> power on, not fixed
turned on Airplane mode, waited a few, turned on wifi, still nothing.
I can give as much information as possible to help resolve this issue.
Thanks!
I am starting to believe its my company wifi AP thats the problem. I tested connectivity with another co-workers 3G/Tethering and it worked just fine.
I havent tested with another public AP, but I'm starting to lean towards and issue with my AP's at work.
But yeah I think I'm connecting to a Cisco AP of some sorts...not sure if anyone else has this problem though.
Disabled WiFiAdHoc resolved my issue...
turn off wifiadhoc setting:
/system/etc/wifi/tiwlan.ini
...using Root Explorer, file will make backup once you edit.
-mount as r/w
-save
Good evening all !
I recently started experimenting with Android on my Nook Color. The Nook Color is running 1.4.1, I followed all the instructions to run it from my SD Card, which seems to work fine. The problem I have is connecting to my wireless router. I have managed to connect to an unsecured router (A random one that showed up) and it works fine. I have unchecked uPnP, and I have three laptops, Xbox360, PS3, WII, you name it and it connects just fine after entering the password. It is currently WEP. It attempts to obtain an IP address, then says connecting, and starts the process all over again. As I have said, I am running it from an SD Card and it seems fine, except for the wireless. I was able to connect to the Android Market, etc. I was just playing around with it and have discovered this issue. Any ideas out there? I would greatly appreciate any tips. I have restarted the router, even tried clearing it out in the terminal (I found somewhere else, for the airplane mode, the icon shows all the time)............
Nevermind everyone..got it....wrong freaking key..changed while i was deployed
I have been having issues where i am connected to the wifi but the device stops passing any traffic. I have fing installed and i can't ping any other devices on my network. I know its just my phone because i have my work phone and tablet connected to the wifi and they still work fine browsing webpages, watching movies etc while the droid turbo can no longer communicate with the local lan or out to the internet. If i switch the wifi off then on again it will reconnect and then work normally. I can then ping devices on the local lan and access pages on the internet. This has happened a number of times now since i got the device.
Edit: I just updated the phone and still get the issue. I have a cisco WAP at home, we have cisco WAP's at work which i will test tomorrow. If this thing still has issues i am just going to swap it out for a Note 4.

Sent from my XT1254 using XDA Free mobile app

Yeah this phone does not seem to like my router for some reason. Keep in mind I'm not a networking expert, but I've tried every combination of options and settings every which way from Sunday and I just can't get the thing to work. When I do connect the phone to my wifi it kills the the connection on every device in the house. At first I though it was just a wireless thing, but even the downstairs computer which is plugged in directly to the router doesn't work. Then as soon as I disconnect the phone every device works again. I thought maybe there was too many devices, so I disconnected all but the downstairs computer, still had the issue when I connected the Turbo. I've tried just turning off the WPA2 and just having an open system, I've tried connecting the phone using a WPS pin (This one actually worked for a good 5 minutes before crapping out and hasn't worked since). On the advanced options of the phone I tried an automatic IP as opposed to the default DHCP setting (This also worked for a good 5 minutes before not working ever again). I've tried limiting it to just one frequency band. I have tried so many different things and I just cannot make this phone work on my router. And I know it's my router because the phone works fine at work.
phone: Droid Turbo
Router : Asus rt-ac66r
yup within ten minutes of getting home, the device no longer passes traffic. My work S5 still works fine at home and so does my samsung tablet. The device worked on wifi all day at work on our enterprise wpa2 network no issues. I tried doing static ip at home, changing to 2.4 ghz, trying new ssid. Not sure what else to do with this thing...
Not just you
I posted a comment on Motorola's forum where people are discussing their wifi issues... And my work around. I currently beleive its a software issue and can be fixed via update. Also, today I found (it appears) that the longer the phone goes without a reboot, the shorter amount of the it appears to go with out needing the wifi card reset.

My work around fix...
First, over night my wifes phone now behaves just like mine. It now connects to wifi and after sometime passes it no longer passes data (but stays connected). I needed a way to auto disable/enable the card... I installed Tasker. I have it set to check every 15 minutes, if the phone is connected to WiFi, to disable then enable the WiFi card. I use WifiMatic to enable the wifi card when the phone is connected to the cellular tower that is near my house. (Doing this by GPS uses more battery power...) Using Tasker with the rule to verify its connected to wifi first helps not enabling wifi if its nit needed and lets WifiMatic enable/disable it as needed.

I own an OnePlus 3T running Open Beta 8, and I've come across a rather strange problem with the Wi-Fi.
It is basically a problem with this one network. It has worked fine with all others I've had it on. It'll connect to the router but will have no Internet access, a Wi-Fi fixer tool I used reports Internet as disconnected and it also fails the DNS ping tests. When you connect after a while there'll be Internet access for a minute or so but then it disconnects again. What's interesting about this problem is, that other devices on this network lose their Internet connectivity as well. Upon disconnecting the phone, they regain Internet access.
I've tried all the standard fixes, resetting the router, resetting the phone -- which solves the problem for about a day or so but it comes back around. I've changed the IP to static and back. Assigned DNS manually. Even attempted creating a hotspot with another device connected to the network. And tried the WiFi Doctor app, but nothing has worked so far. This problem was also persistent in Open Beta 7
I recently did a full install of android-x86_64-7.1-rc2 on my Laptop Lenovo Ideapad 110. Everything runs. Only issue I am running into is the WiFi connection as it keeps dropping. The weird thing is that when I plug the laptop to a direct connection (Ethernet) the internet connection is completely stable. All my other wireless devices that use my home WiFi are also stable.
Same problem

Can you please tell me how did you manage to activate Xposed on Android x86?
WIFI x86 8.1 RC1 not working on asus TP200SA
Hello, same thing for me here too, but I have installed RC1 and that does the same, all seems to work no wifi.

I also have the same issue.
LENOVO ideapad 110
Did you find solution?
I have Dell Inspiron Mini i installed Android-x86-8.1-r1 and only frist time after instalattion wifi work fine then when i restart Android wifi connection lost and no showing in wifi connections.
How to fix that?
Any update on this? I have an ASUS vivo pc with the wifi constantly dropping.
I have the same issue, using Chromebox with 9.0 rc1
Same issue here on a dell Pavilion DM4. Wifi worked on initial setup and then suddenly drops and cannot turn it on.
I've been having the same problem on android-x86_64-9.0-r2.iso (baremetal install/no VM, on asus laptop ux305fa). Found a workaround to get wifi back up and running:
Ctrl-Alt-F1 (to switch to console)
su (to get root)
ip link show wlan0 (shows wlan0 as DOWN)
ip link set wlan0 up
ip link show wlan0 (shows wlan0 as UP)
ping address-for-wifi-router (works now)
Ctrl-Alt-F7 (to switch back to GUI)
GUI at this point shows wifi is status is "connected" to my router, which I set up before with password and everything. Before I did the manual workaround, turning on the wifi slider button in the GUI caused an endless hang condition.
So the question is, why does wifi get hung up in the first place?
@colonal35 @panda9 @dbroadus2007 does my workaround have the desired effect for you?
UPDATE: in my case, after fixing as shown above, wifi came up automatically after next reboot.
UPDATE2: I noticed that after applying my fix, my wireless mouse does not work anymore. Could it be that the orioginal problem occurs because ax86 gets confused when there are two wireless devices wifi+mouse (+bluetooth, but bt seems not affected). Strike the preceding. After next reboot the wireless mouse is working again. At least so far.

Just writing to share my almost-successful experience on this.
Symtpom: Many months ago, I installed Android x86 9.0 rc1 on one of my spare laptop (a Dell Latitude E5530, FWIW). It worked fine at that time. I did not use it since then, and recently when I booted that laptop, the WiFi icon in notification bar is dimmed, and the machine keeps "searching for Wi-Fi networks...".
Trying to follow @reikred 's workaround above, but in my case, the initial "ip link show wlan0" already shows wlan0 as UP, and then toggling "ip link set wlan up" or "... down" does NOT change the "ip link show wlan0" status at all. Inspired by @reikred's idea, I use "ifconfig" instead. "ifconfig wlan0 down" and "... up" can change wlan0 status. And then, the WiFi works ... momentarily. After I read a couple web pages, the WiFi hung up again.
But thanks for @georgeellis28 's sharing, the workaround of plugging in an ethernet cable does work! That is a pleasant surprise. I was not aware that an Android device would work with ethernet.
Well I have the same problem and I've figured out what the issue is. The wireless adaptor isn't supported in the version of linux that android x86 is using, specifically the Realtek 8822CE. I think a usb wifi adaptor would work. There may be different versions of the android x86 that work depending on what version of linux is used.
Same problem on HP Laptop.
i used on android 4.4 rc2 but it says "device wlan0 does not exist"
