Hello! new to N1 forum, could any1 tell me if its even possible to connect via wifi to an ad hoc network. Im using CyanogenMod-5 rom which finds network but fails to connect. any help wld be great. sorry if this is the wrong place for my question.
regards bevan
Yes, you'll have to edit the (tiwlan.ini0) and (wpa_supplicant.conf). When I get to night...i'll try to post what you need to edit.
I just got my N1 today and will playing with it ...so it might be around 10-11 CST to night when I post back with the info.
Here a quick type up
going to system/etc/wifi and edit tiwlan.ini...do a seach for WiFiAdhoc and it should take to
WiFiAdhoc = 0 and change the 0 to 1...right ather WiFiAdhoc put
dot11DesiredSSID = CARPC what ever you want...as you can see I use (carpc) so I can connect to my carpc.
dot11DesiredBSSType = 0 this will stay 0 so it all should look like this
WiFiAdhoc = 1
dot11DesiredSSID = CARPC
dot11DesiredBSSType = 0
Now for wpa_supplicant.conf add this to very bottom
ssid="CARPC"
key_mgmt=NONE
mode=1
}
If you still need help just post back in here....
thanks
soloxp hope ur enjoying the new phone & yes it seem I need a little more help with this. now as Im new to android I've never actually edited setting before. I found setting/etc/wifi but could u please point me a tutorial on how I edit this file. thankyou for ur time.
I just check CM N1 Roms and it look like the N1 wifi is setting are different then the G1. I want be rooting my N1 for about 2weeks...that way I know it's working good before I root it. Sorry I can't help you on this right now.

ur welcome!
You can try these...just change my setting to your and see if it works.
I try to insert a rar file. i'll try another way.
WEP works fine without making any changes. So if its just a quick temporary solution use that.
Thats what I used when in Japan for net on the N1, as the appartment only provided a LAN cable & I only had a netbook with me.
Hi, I changed my settings in wifi with yours using win rar (maybe that's not how to do it?) but didn't work sadly. when trying to flash told me file was bad. should I mod this file using some other programe? not sure. am a noob but willing to learn how this is done thanks again!

In order to obtain an IP address automatically. You need to be running a DHCP server which I doubt you are.
To get around this set a static IP address on the phone.

My phone can obtain network address ONLY if my laptop is connected to internet. (no problem).
There's no tiwlan.ini file in nexus one & there's no need to edit it. just have to edit wpa_supplicant.conf.
cheers

have kind of given up on the ad hoc thing for now but thanks for advice guys. Im on 3g mobile broadband and recently got a 3g router which fixed my problem. when I leave the house and require internet I just use 3g sim card works fine so no need for ad hoc at the moment.
AdHoc - unsuccesfully
Hello all.
I have the same problem with adhocing my N1 and wireless adapter D-Link DWA-150.
I used to check all the "solutions" of this problem (wpa_supplicant. conf, rooting, new SSID...) but it seems not usefull for me.((
To soloxp - there is not any tiwlan.ini in N1. At least in CyanogenMod 5.0.6.N1.
What can I do more to connect my wireless adapters?..
Has anyone figured this out? I am running CyanogenMod 5.0.7.1 and I do have the wpa_supplicant.conf file but I'm not sure what to put in it as far as editing it. I use WMWiFiRouter on a Windows Mobile phone because that phone is 3G and my Nexus One only gets EDGE. My iPhone and computers can connect up to my WM phone just fine I just can't get my N1 to connect to it.
So this is indeed the way for my question and possibly the solution..
I have been asking abt this,
I got N1, CM7 latest...
linksys compact g wireless USB adapter
after creating adhoc connection I connect my phone and it stuck at "obtaining IP address"
Now please tell me how can a place or make a change in N1 system files?
please help me with links and yeah Im a nooobbb

Im in china and I can connect to my modem/router but i cannot connect to the internet via stock browser or opera mini on my captivate. my american made gateway NV53 running windows 7 acts the same way. why?
specs on my modem/router :
ZTE
ZXV10 H608B
WPA-PSK (password 5acjkfn5 entered and accepted and connected)
ChinaNet- EZUf (name of my wireless network)
192.168.1.1 (address on the back modem/router)
useradmin (default backdoor password written on back of modem/router)
mhedb (i dont know what this is)
specs on my captivate:
SGH-I897
2.2 (this is a kies mini upgrade from my original 2.1)
baseband: I897UCKB1
kernel version: 2.6.32.9
build number: FROYO.UCKBI
my phone is rooted with superoneclick (CLShortFuse) and unlocked with helroz's unlocker.
my gateway NV53 does the same thing- connects to modem/router but will not access the net, says no internet access.
my captivate says web page not available.
when i plug the LAN1 wire into the modem/router to my pc i can connect to the internet.
can anyone help? (i did search for similar threads but none seemed to be the same situation. i think maybe being in china has something to do with it.)
when i go to a hotel or starbucks my captivate will connect and does have internet access. please help
It sounds like the router is your problem. Since this is the captivate forum, you probably won't get much help here. Try asking in the networking forum.
Have you tried resetting your router?

sorry to anyone who wasted time reading any of this thread because i posted it in the wrong place. sincerely, i am sorry.
I have an LG thrill and the 02222012 cm7 nightly. I searched everywhere for my problem and wanted to know if this is a known bug. I tried checking the changelog but it said server quota was reached so i couldnt find any information there either. It just stays stuck at obtaining ip address. I have noticed wifi is working for others. Any help would be great.

I did get my wifi working but i had to assign a static ip address, gateway, netmask, and dns for it. But i shouldnt have to do that? should my thread be deleted or left here for others to see how i resolved my issue?

Hi guys! Can you help me out! I installed several MM Roms, as i can not connect to certain wifi networks. I installed many of them to troubleshoot my phone. I have no idea why i can not connect, why it stucks. . It stucks at obtaining IP adress. Before i first install the marsmallow on 5.x.x series i was able to connect to any wifi network (obviously if i had the network key), but now i can not connect to my workplace wifi, also at my friend. At home it is all OK. All networks are 2.4ghz. Other then this i can not see 5ghz networks. i saw a solution for that, but most adb drivers are for x86 even if it says its for x64 systems (or either im too noob, buti can not install them on win10). But the main issue, which pisses me off, is the problem with 2.4Ghz networks. Does any of you have any solution for that. Furthermore, have any of you faced this problem before??? Thanks anyway!

Yes, i tried that, thanks. The problem doesnt seem to be the encryption, as its passes through. The issue is with obtaining IP address. Maybe in MM they changed the way that DHCP(IP address obtaining) works. If i can not find a way to change that, i will have to revert back to Lollipop.

Oh! I see... that is a pitty! I'm thinking in advance to Android 6.0, but i hear several issues about it. So, meantime I´ll keep android 5! Hope you finda solution, best regards.
Hi Guys!
Accidently i found the solution for the issue. I share it with you, in case if anyone interested. If you tap 5 or 6 times on the build number, you'll be able to become developer. After this you go to the developer options, then scrolling down, you'll find an option to revert back to Lollipop tipe DHCP. If you tick that, you can connect to any wifi network. (in case if you have the network key) You'll no longer stuck at "obtaining IP address"... Hope that helps
