[Q] Secure WIFI problem - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Nexus 4 won't connect to Wi-Fi with password. It shows for a second that it tries to connect and then immediately stops and doesn't connect.
The WIFI is OK because when i make the WIFI network open with no password, it's working and connecting.
Also, I rebooted the phone but it didn't help.
Does anyone knows this problem? and how to fix it?
Thank you very much!

Wifi problem

I have a strange poblem with Wifi. Whenever I try to connect to any accesspoint, secured or otherwise, it displays "CONNECTING" for a while, then reverts to "AVAILABLE". Once in a while, by resetting or turning wifi off and on, Ill be able to connect and then everything is fine. But the moment I trun wifi off and back on, or suspend the unit the error returns.
Update: this is getting even wierder. I am able to connect to _secured_ networks without a problem, but I still cannot connect to unsecured ones.

it would help if you post your GSM/ROM version and to what kind of network you are trying to connect ?

Can't Save wifi settings

Hello all. my problem is i'm not able to save the wifi settings. I'm connecting to an EAP-PEAP network at school. Everytime i disconnect, it doesnt save and I have to enter all the info again. this doesnt happen with my home wifi network, which is WPA. Does anyone else get this problem. It happens even after checking the save password box. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
I have similar issues with my school network. Their techs don't know anything or have any advice.

[Q] Problem with wifi Samsung Galaxy 5 (i5500)

Hi, I've some problem with wifi connections. I own a lynksis wag54g2 wifi router. I can establish a connection, but after some times (it's not standard, it may vary), my device disconnect from the router and it's not able to reconnect. All that i can do is plug off my router (i take off the ac adapter) and when it's up again my phone can connect. it's very frustating, but i don't know what to do? i've tried setting something in wifi preferences' on my phone but nothing change. i've also flashed my firmware to the new one, hoping that it could fix that problem, but it didn't. someone could help me?
you can update the firmware to a newer one. this would fix your problem.

Hello.
I have a problem with WIFI on Galaxy 5 (i5500)(Europa) too. They have already changed my phone with new one, but the issue remains. So, for the second time now, I was able to connect my phone to my router for the first time, but after the first interruption or disconnection of WIFI I could not access to wifi anymore.
When I enable wifi in the phone starts ''connecting'' but then reports ''interrupted'' eventhough the signal is recognised as strong.
Firmwire version is the latest available. Router is encrypted with WPA2. Also I can access to router with my HTC Tattoo (Click).
Does anyone know the solution?
I have a decision to make(today), becouse If there is no solution to this I will change to another phone as I still can (Galaxy Spica).
Advise please.
Thanks a lot
What router do you have? have you tried with any other wifi network? i said that because my have this problem only with my router, and not for example with my girlfriend's one.
I found a little fix for my router, linksys wag54g2: open up the config page (192.168.1.1), go for wireless tab, select protection page and click on save settings. that reload the router and my phone is able to connect again.
Hi.
Thanks for your advice. There is some problem with router.. When I restart router the wifi on the phone works until swiched off or interruption becouse being out of range. When I try to connect to wifi again does not work unless I restart router again. ..catchy.. Interfering with mobile connection also makes the drop of wireless connection on my computer, so I need to restart router. I don't know the permanent solution. If anyone has any idea how repair this forever please let me know.
Best,
Thanks
Hi,
Here is my problem with my wifi with the galaxy 550.
For security reasons, my wifi network can't be detected (invisible). If i want to connect a new device by wifi, I must first set my wifi visible and then register my device.
Then I set my wifi as invisible again and the device can connect automaticaly to my network without "seeing" my wifi network.
Problem is that once i set my wifi as invisible again, my galaxy fail to connect because the network is unvisible.
Is there anyway to fix this ?
I have just read similar post on another thread and replied find it here
I ahvent installed anything, perhaps its to do with the handset if its locked to a particular carrier? just a guess and a question...
cheers

try to use static ip!!

I have an answer! Hope it works for you.
My provider gave me really easy solution for wifi connection not connecting even though it was my own network with all the right info. It worked great the first time, then for some reason the phone locked in the "off" position. So I removed the battery to reboot (later learned the right way by pushing the volume button on the left and the power button at the same time)
Anyway, try this....
turn phone off - remove battery - remove sim card - wait a few minutes - reassemble - then the network should log on with no problem.....Good luck!

[Q] Wi-Fi not working from one day to the next..

Hi Community!
I have a short question for you.
How is it possible i can't connect to my wifi network at home from one day to the next? With my Nokia 5800 i can connect without any problems.
And at work i can connect to wifi with my HD2, too. Only at home i cant connect anymore. I tried resetting my router, changing the securtiy settings, channel, ssid. nothing helped. I tried setting up a static ip instead of using dhcp, but no chance. No mac filter or anything else is active. Tried to reinstall the rom several times, but as suspected it didnt work.
Like i said my nokia works at home connecting to wifi. So the error shouldnt be by my router. And since the HD2 to connects at work to wifi it also shouldnt be a problem of my hd2 :F
Always telling me "Optaining IP-Adress", so it wants to connect, password is typed in correctly, but something prevents it connecting. Usually it connects immediatly after searching for an ip adress.
So, from one day to the next wifi isnt working only at home..
Do any of you have a clue what's going wrong here?
another restart of my router solved the problem... dont ask me why.

Maybe a stupid question, but are you sure you got the right password in?
Have you tryed connecting to other wifi's with your phone ?
Check if you can connect to other WLANs. If you can, you probably got the password wrong. If the password is right, try setting your password encryption to AES if it's on TKIP. You can also try logging in without password (for test purposes only, please) andl ogging in with a fixed IP.

You can try a few things
=>Delete the access point and re-enter the password and join
=>Factory reset your Device
=>Check if your WiFi router broadcasts in a/b/g/n
Hope this helps
