HELP!! Wifi is not working - TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I updated it with CM10.2, it works fine for 2 days. Suddenly, the wi fi is not working. It can't even see any Wi-Fi network, no MAC address too. I installed other ROM using clockwork, but the Wi-Fi still is dead. However, when I boot in WebOS, the Wi-Fi is working ok. Then I used ACMEUninstaller to delete everything and ACMEInstall5M to install CM10.1. Wi-Fi is still not working and no MAC address too. Then I boot into WebOS. But this time, the Wi-Fi in WebOS is dead too. It can't see any Wi-Fi network.
Any idea or suggestion?

Wifi no longer working with paul's froyo [FIXED]

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

Cant connect to wifi hotspot

I'm using the stock Tmobile wifi Hotspot app on my phone to have wifi on vacation. I can connect my laptop to it no problem. I'm on it now. But after the first night, my Nook can't find it. It scans but won't connect at all. I'm using CM nightly 142. It had previously been working, but when I put my Nook to sleep so I could sleep, it didn't work the next day. I had been running 7.1rc1 and even tried flashing to the new nightly, thinking maybe it was a problem with the rc1, but I didn't wipe anything. Anyone have any ideas?

[Q] CM7 wifi problem

I just installed CM7 a3.5 and everything would be great if I could just get the wifi to work right. It will work fine for a while and then it will start to cycle "Scan, Connecting, Disconnect" over and over again. Rebooting doesn't help. It isn't a signal strength problem because when it does connect I get full bars and the router is about two feet away. Also, it works fine when running webOS.
edit: found the thread about wifi problems and got it working by switching router's wifi channel.
I posted my solution on another thread. You may find it helpful:

Wifi No Longer Works AT ALL

My DROID Bionic's wifi doesn't work at all anymore. It was working just fine a couple of days ago. The phone got REALLY overheated so I dont know if that was the issue. When I go into wifi settings and try to connect to a wifi network it only says "Turning wi-fi on..." I was running the ICS leak .2233 at the time and FXZ'd to .902 and updated to stock ICS. Also, when I try to connect it also says "No nearby Bluetooth devices were found." Its odd because im in the wi-fi tab, not the bluetooth tab. I would really appreciate some replies. Thank you.
WiFi on mine stopped working in stock ICS. It would just continually attempt to grab an IP and then disconnect and reconnect. Forgetting the connection and reentering the key did not help. Oddly enough it worked fine in CM10JB. Not really wanting to mess with it I did a factory data reset (after backing up both ROM slots) and it started working again. It may have been heavy handed but it's going again...

WLAN just works on every xth reboot

Hallo,
Some days ago my wifi stopped working from properly. Its just not working.
I am using a rooted S2 and tried to get a ping response from my router->no go "operation not permitted".
Any other device on my networks works just fine so i am assuming it must be something
with the tablet. I tried to delete the wifi profiles->no go i tried different wifi network (2.4ghz)->
no go. The WLAN just connects fine, at least thats what i conclude from the wifi icon at top.
I also disabled all XPosed modules->no go. Any idea what this can be?
I'm afraid you aren't the only one with that problem
