Unfortunately, I've always had the same problem with my secured network with both my MDA(HTC WIZARD) and my Wing(HTC Herald). Do you have Dlink router, by any chance?
Originally change the wifi settings, removing 4X mode and placing the TX rate to 11mb and not 22mb fixed the problem but the problem is back (but so is the 22mbps apparently..)
Just changed it back to 11mbps and it worked!!!
i have my network runnin off a linksys wireless b router model befw1154..and yea i tried changin them settins and still nothing like i said it still sees it and tries to connect but wont ....
I've got a similar problem. Secured network at home (Dlink 614+), won't connect. It'll go from connecting to unavailable, then available again. I've narrowed it down to the router (I think). Every time I change a setting on the router, it reboots itself. Directly after the reboot, I can connect with my wing and stay connected. As soon as I disconnect and try to reconnect, it won't do it. So my only fix so far is to reboot the router when I get home and keep the wifi on.
One time, I went out to get a haircut and connected to a wifi network around there, then as I came home, it was able to connect. Maybe it has to do with the wing "refreshing" a cache or something.
I haven't tried the 11mbps thing posted above. I'll have to try it when I get home. Hopefully that'll fix it, because constant rebooting of the router or finding another wifi spot isn't a real solution for me. I hope the wing will get a software upgrade or something that'll make it more compatible with more routers.
I have the same 614+, so it might work for you. I mean, it still happens but not as much as it did before.
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
Hey guys, hope someone can help.
Short version
Phone only connecting to home wifi with 802.11b. Very poor range and performance. How to force connection with 802.11n or g?
Longer version
I've had poor wifi performance for a long time, and was my inspiration to upgrade to CM9 just recently. I'm loving CM9, but I'm still experiencing dodgy wifi.
I've been looking at the router admin, and it shows I'm connecting with 802.11b only. Here's what the router is saying:
edit: Okay, apparently I can't post outside links to show you the wireless device connections screenshot. Here's what the router says about all the wireless devices connected, my device is at the top (hope the formatting holds up ok)
MODE - RATE - SIGNAL (%)
802.11b - 11M - 18
802.11g - 36M - 18
802.11n - 65M - 38
802.11n - 58M - 26
802.11n - 130M - 40
802.11n - 78M - 18
Mine is the only Android device in the house.
Curiously, this is AFTER I changed the router to mixed 802.11n & g (not b at all). I've searched xda and google for someone with similar problems but to no avail.
The router is a D-Link DIR-632, though I had the same wifi range and performance issues with an old router (Linksys WRG54T), hence the new one.
I've tinkered a bit with the router settings, changing the 802.11 mode and changing channels (only one neighbour with weak wifi), but no luck. I need to be literally standing next to the router to get a good signal.
Wifi Analyzer app has my connection hovering around -80 dBm
Hope someone can help! Cheers.
Did you tried connecting with your computer after changes done in wifi?
-----Sent using RemICS-i9000-----
I had the same problem after first flashing cm9, but after inserting sim card, everything worked just fine.
Appreciate your help, guys.

Computer stayed connected whichever 802.11 mode was set to. I'm a but unsure how this might help solve the problem with my phone though?

To be clear, I believe I may have always had this problem, as the wifi performance is similarly poor both before and after CM9. I only identified the 802.11b as a possible cause after further investigation when CM9 didn't magically fix it.
Still, I hadn't tried removing the sim because I wouldn't have thought it was related. I have now tried it. Booted with sim out, then again with sim back in. Didn't help. Thanks for the suggestion though.
Any other ideas?
Has this problem got xda stumped? Maybe I'm asking in the wrong place?
Would appreciate any ideas. You're all so very smart (and handsome, too).
have you managed to solve?

Hi folks
Since I updated to JellyBean (JellyMod currently) I have an issue with my wifi connection.
It shows connected but i cant transfer any data (every app fails to establish a connection) until I turn off the wifi and turn it on again. then it ill work for some time and fails again after a not defined period of time.
I found a lot of threads regarding similiar problems but I did not find a solution yet (and for me having a rooted phone installing an app that that runs in background like wifi fixer is a workaround, not a fix
I already did a complete factory reset and fresh install of jellymod.
My router at home is a netgear wndr3700 with the latest dd-wrt. all my other devices work great.
I set the wifi of my i9070 to always on. also i installed auto wifi for location based wifi on/off-profiles.
all of this worked with gingerbread, never had problems...
any idea? seems like a lot of galaxy phones and even tabs are affected...
Thanks in advance!

Same problem here. Im guessing it could be the amount of wifi traffic you have in your area?
Could also be some routers. You could try mixed modes b+n+g or just n etc on your router maybe that solves it.

As said most likely your router.
Download and install wifi analyzer and see what channel is best for you. If possible disable b+g and only use n.
Sometimes simply rebooting the router will do it.
