[Q] Wifi Help!! - TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Wifi works fine at home with no drop at all. However, in office it just does not connect - it goes in a loop : scanning-connecting-authenticating-disconncted-scanning. Does not matter whether the password is right or wrong. My office uses WPA/WPA 2 PSK.
It was connecting before then suddenly it stopped working. It still connects via WebOS. I have tried partition wipe, android factory reset, xron mod etc. but still no luck. I thought it will be fixed after factory reset or partition wipe but no. Can anyone please help me? P.S. I will not be able to get the router reset in office.

This could be a lot of things. Could you set your phone up as a wifi hotspot or bluetooth tether or something?

i had that in my office....i just made it forget the network and enter the password again, seemed to do the trick

I had the same issue. There is a youtube video that will show you how to fix it and I haven't had the problem since. I can't post links because I'm a new user, but search "Fix Wifi Issues on Your Touchpad Running Android" on youtube.

Visited my friend today at his townhouse where is countless wireless networks.
His TP refuses to connect and my TP that is working without problems at my house refused to connect as well.
We changed the AP settings to CH6 on 2.4GHz - no change and it would not connect to 5GHz AP neither.
Got back home and it connected no problem.

Thanks all. I tried entering the password again and it connected!

whenever my TP does this I just tick "Airplane Mode" then enable the Wifi again.

at the same time i installed xron 1/3/2012 , i found this "fxr wififix"
it is free from market
it works great for me..

Thanks

[Q] My XPERIA X1 doesn't connect any more to one WIFI router

For a long time I successfully used my X1 with LinkSYS WRT54GL (DD-WRT) router at home. One day I tried to set WIFI to channel 12 and 13 and try if my X1 connects or not. After it failed to connect i have set WIFI back to channel 2 (as was before). Now X1 doesn't connect to this router any more. I tried to change various wifi setting on wrt54gl but still no luck. But the phone works with any other router it worked before. I even tried to hardreset my X1 but still nothing. How can I fix this problem?
Guy i have the same problem HELP US PLS
Try to delete the phone mac address from the router and let find the phome agaim, it sounds like the settings were overwritten.

I have done hard reset to phone and router and reconfigured them manually. Nothing helps

No I didn't because It worked before without problems for a long time.
Try your xperia in router mode from connection manager. It'll help you=)
I try hard reset and now it work !!!
But i hate hard reset...
this will work i have the same issue
go to wireless advanced sittings look for a tap called power mode select maximum power then turn on the wireless
As I wrote before, all those tricks doesn't work. I reflashed my phone with other ROM but the problem remains. Flashed other RADIO, wifi still not connecting.

Did you try to just reboot? Also check time.

Touchpad Wifi in connect loop
Just thought I would add my experience.
At work it hung all day. Tried a variety of things. Finally did the following.
Settings > Wireless & Networks
Airplane Mode : On ( did it from here not power menu )
Once set, WIFI should be off.
Wi-Fi Settings
Wi-Fi Turn Off
Then was able to delete connection and re-add
Everything works.
This may be a coincidence but prior to this would always get Force Close/Wait dialogs and was unable to Forget network connections.

No WiFi in WebOS

So I picked up a couple of used 32GB Touchpads Both were stuck at the setup screen waiting for WiFi to find a network. They would just continually scan.
So I bypassed the setup, neither WiFi or Bluetooth will turn on. I tried a few fixes I found on the internet with no luck. Enable then Disable Airplane mode, Leave it running trying to turn on BT and WiFi overnight on a charger. I rolled it back to 3.0.0 then back up to 3.0.5 one by one with the same results.
I decided to go ahead and try CWM and see what happens. WiFi and Bluetooth work perfectly in CM9 and CM10??!!?? Not a single issue. So I went back to WebOS and since I don't have WiFi I used WOSQI to install Uberkernel and Govnah, thinking maybe a new kernel would fix it. The same results as before.
For the life of me I am stuck. Sure Android works perfect but I would still like to figure out where the problem is.
Anybody have any ideas?
even me im having problem with my wifi

So far I have tried editing the tokens, replacing them with working tokens from other TP, deleting the tokens and restarting, forcing a new mac through novacom. The closest I have come is a mac showing for etho in ifconfig but no wirelss at all in iwconfig and the token still shows all 0s for the mac.

[Q] Connected to WiFi network, but no internet connection [WebOS]

Last night, I found my TouchPad sitting under a pile of papers in my office after a few months of wondering where it was and charged it on the dock. Before this long gap of not using it, it had been working perfectly fine - internet browsing, apps, etc... and the internet definitely worked.
After turning it on, it will connect to my WiFi network without a problem, but when I go to open up a web browser page, it says: "Error: No Internet connection." I also can't get it to load stories in the USA Today app and it won't check email in the email app.
I tried enabling/disabling Airplane Mode and then reset the WiFi settings (gave it a new IP address under the WiFi Preferences menu, like this HP forum post says to do), but it still doesn't want to let me go to websites or anything.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

As you say that you haven't used it for a while I'm wondering if you updated the root certificate.
If you didn't here are instructions on how to :

It won't even let me go into the App Catalog to download the update, actually. When I try to, it says: "You must connect to a network to use this application." After I click "Retry," there is a brief moment where it flashes a screen asking me what country I'm in before it goes right back to the screen telling me to connect to a network.
I don't think this is an issue with my router, since all of my family's phones (a Galaxy Nexus, a Galaxy S3, and two iPhones), two laptops, and a Kindle are all using the network with no problems at all. It seems to me like it must be an internal problem with the way my Touchpad is interacting with the network.
Thanks for the suggestion though! That could be another issue I'll have to fix too (since I don't remember downloading an update to fix that problem, which I hadn't heard about before, though I think I've probably used my Touchpad at some point since July 2013).

[solved] No internet on WiFi

Hi,
When I connect my P9 to my home WiFi, I've got "no internet connexion"'. But I'm successfully connected to the WiFi.
I've tried factory reset and even replaced my phone by a new one (thanks to my phone company which saw no other solution) and I still have the same issue...
On another free open wifi, it works (but it has no protection).
I tried a lot of different wifi protection (WPA2 PSK/TKIP, WPA-PSK/TKIP, WPA2-PSK, WEP and so on...), I tied to switch channel, nothing changed..
Any idea ??? Am I cursed and got a second broken phone ?
Thanks for any help provided...
Edit : Problem solved, I made a factory reset of my internet modem. It wasn't the phone (I had the same issue with another android device)
