IPSec Xauth PSK doesn't connect since Android 11 (Patch 2020-12-05) - Google Pixel 3a Guides, News, & Discussion

Hello,
I can no longer connect to my VPN (IPSec XAuth PSK) since the latest Android patch from December.
With the same settings and an older version the connection works.
Only "Not successful" appears.
How to report something like this to Google? Does anyone else have this problem? By the way, my modem is a Fritzbox 6591 and 7590.

Hi,
i personally do not have a pixel 3a but the Pixel 4a from my wife has the exact same problem.
But i found a solution:
On your Phone search for "private DNS" and CHANGE the setting to "off" or "auto", depending what was selected before.
I also have a Poco X3 Pro with Android 11 - this phone also had this problem.
Strangely:
I have to set the Poco to "auto" and the Pixel 4a to "off" in the "privates DNS" setting.
The default setting was "off" on the Poco and "auto" on the Pixel 4a.
But now both Phones can connect to the Fritzbox without problems!
I hope this helps!

FWIW this didn't work for me, trying to connect to a FritzBox VPN.

WiFi data transfer problem

I have a ZyXEL P-2602HW-D1A Wireless router. I have tried all combinations of security, even NO SECURITY WHATSOEVER, and still the device won't transfer data.
Not working;
Firmware: 1.5, Build: CR817
Wifi Router: ZyXEL P-2602HW-D1A
Security: Tried All; WPA2, WPA, WEP & None.
Problem: Connect under all conditions but no data is sent
Please help.
Have you tried another WiFi access point to check the devices WiFi module actually functions?
No, I haven't tried that yet, but don't really see the point... I've connected effortlessly to the same WiFi network with my HTC Touch Diamond.

For some reason my N800 wouldn't connect to MY ZyXEL P-2602HW-D1A unless I set the device (N800) to disable any kind of wifi powersaving features it had.
On another note, how did you get your hands on the device so early? I'm guessing you are using a Cybercity internet connection? (I'm in copenhagen myself)
edit: I actually came to that solution when i noticed I could connect to OTHER accespoints, but not the Zyxel ones.
Same problem here in France with a Freebox as router
I've noticed under the router's WLAN client list that the device does not have a "Host Name". Would that present a problem?
It is assigned an IP address by the router without any problems, though.
Also the device seems to lose connection and reconnect constantly (every 5-10 seconds).
I done some digging around in the router settings and found an "AnyIP" feature. Would that possibly help?
There are a number of issues floating around. Support for WPA2 seems iffy and some people can just change to WPA or WEP and all work fine.
There are however a number of people (such as me) who can get a connection perfectly, it shows connection OK, they get an IP from the DHCP server etc, they can even browse a page for a few seconds... but after that no data is sent and everything times out. This is happening on any security from none through to WPA2.
I have seen no solution to this anywhere and believe me I have looked. Some people have given up and got a new router, but this is not a solution.
Can someone confirm that this has been recognised as a fault with the magic and is being investigated, rather then assuming it's a user or router error. There are far too many instances of this across many brands of router for it not to be an issue with the HTC Magic.

What I mean is have you tested the device on ANY other AP except the ZyXEL?
No, but since I'm by far the only one having this issue (try searching the web; see my last post), I didn't feel it was necessary. Just want some input from xda-dev that might solve the problem, if any.

I've had exactly the same problem earlier with the N800 on the zyxel. Exactly how you describe it.
Did you find out if you could turn off any powersaving features on the HTC?
same problem here
in france with a freebox
I don't exaclty know what router is in the box
but I have excalty the same
I set on never the wifi sleep(powersaving) mode.
i found it in setting wifi menu button then advanced and "never"
but the problem is still here

I have the exact same problem on mine. I just hope it is not a hardware issue...
Could be DHCP lease time problem. Did anyone of you tried to set up Magic with Static IP?
Yes, I tried that also - didn't help one bit.

I also have this problem. Im in Denmark with a Zyxel P660HW-p1.
Another user of Cybercity in Denmark with the same problem.
ZyXEL P-660HW-D1
The android is the only device that doesn't work. I have tried with Iphone and laptops.
I've tried to change the settings on the router to no avail.
Enable 802.11g+ mode [on/off]
RTS/CTS Threshold [2432/4096]
RTS/CTS Threshold [2432/4096]
Max. Frame Burst [600/1800]
The device shows up in the device list with no hostname, the HTC Magic gets the right ip address (using the program WhatIsMyIp to view it)
I had the same problem before, when I set my TP-LINK draft N router with WEP security my HD can see it, connect to it (but speed was slow tho), and my HTC Magic just keep saying its not in range. However, when I set it to open security it works, so I recognise its probably the security setting... so I changed that to WPA2 and then it works.
In my case, I see different device have different tolerance to some settings (in my case, draft N + WEP is OK with laptop, HTC HD, but not Magic), so its still worthwhile to try a few different settings, and try a public wireless access point also to double confirm?
Power save?
I have Zyxel (P-2602R-D1A) router.
I had exactly the same problem with my HTC Vox (winmo)... but that was solved by boosting the WiFi in the phone.
WiFi -> Best performance
So Im guessing magic is in some WiFi "power save" mode...
I dont know how this works, but I thought maybe you could change some WiFi settings behind the hood - that is if the hardware is capable of it.
Zyxel (P-2602R-D1A) router
I am having the same issue with this router as the other posters. The phone connects perfectly and reports an excellent signal, but barely sends or receives any data. I have used a terminal emulator to ping the router and it reports an 82% packet loss. This must be a big problem for many Danish users as it is the standard wifi router provided by two of the major ISP's.
same issue here with my vodafone uk magic.
wifi connects and i can browse for a few seconds then get a connection error and can't browse until i re-start wifi on the magic...
i've actually given up using wifi at home now due to this.
router is a talktalk supplied Huawei Echolife HG520b using 128 bit WEP
i can connect fine via wifi at the office so i don't think it's an issue with the handset, just with certain routers or router configs...
this issue has been reported on the vodafone uk forums but as yet no solution.

Can't connect to wifi - "avoided poor internet connection"

I've been having problems trying to connect my friend's Nexus 7 (32Gb) to my home wifi. I tried 4 (yes 4) wireless routers, and it refused to connect to any of them. It would prompt for my (WPA2) login credentials, then spend a few minutes trying to connect, then give up and try another access point. It would mark the AP just tried as "avoided poor internet connection".
The routers I tried were:
- Belkin Play Max N600 HD
- Buffalo WHR-G54S
- Draytek Vigor 2920n
- O2 Broadband wireless box 5
The signal strength from all of them was shown as excellent. I tried the O2 wireless box with WEP encryption instead of WPA2 and that didn't help.
I was able to connect both a Samsung Q330 laptop and a Galaxy S3 to all of these routers, so they all appear to be working fine.
As I'm shortly planning to buy a Nexus 7 I'm keen to understand what sort of problem might stop it connecting to my routers!
Any ideas?
avoided poor internet connection
Hi,
I have the same issue and i foud that it is due to the inferior frequency of my router wich is 2.4ghz.
so i you did found a solution please share it,thanks in advance.

All routers use 2.4 GHz unless they are branded/advertised as being 5 GHz. The Nexus doesn't even support 5 GHz. The warning is more about the actual internet connection anyway. As for removing this warning, you can easily disable it under advanced WiFi settings.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
I subsequently acquired my own Nexus 7 and had no problem connecting it all of the routers that my friend's Nexus 7 wouldn't connect to. I'm guessing that I was running a newer ROM. I still have no idea why my friend's unit wouldn't connect
Your friend should return his faulty N7 for a replacement.
If you can access the router, do a reset or reboot, sometimes a refresh would get the "hand shaking" working again, switch to an alternate wireless channel as it could be interference from other nearby routers.
after some research i found this .
and for the "avoid poor internet connection" in the advanced menu ,in 4.1.1 the is no such option in the menu .

Your custom rom is not the same as the OP. There is no option you suggest on a stock rom.

usually the problem is with the router, restart the router,

SOLUTION
Figured it out...go to the WiFi settings, hit the menu key and choose "Advanced", and uncheck "Avoid poor connections".
There are lots of android phones without the above mentioned option(The place where you can uncheck your "Avoid poor connections" )
If you're in that case I've got an alternate for you
1. run command prompt and type ipconfig
2. note down your ip address
3. now what you do is change the last digits after the last point and give the command
ping 192.168.1.xx(changing the last digit or last two digits)
it'll say pinging and BLAH BLAH BLAH
It'll give details about the sent and received packets of data
And also LOST packets
NOTE: If the lost =0( 0 % lost)
4. Then note down the ip address which you've given after the command ping **192.168.1.xx**
if the lost= (100 % lost) or may be some other percentage of lost... it means there is some loss of data packets
so never note down that..... repeat the process 3. changing the last digits of your ip address
5. Now once the lost percentage is 0 %
6. go to settings->Wi-Fi-> And long press the network to which you wanna connect your device
7. Choose modify network
8. Enter the password(If there is any and do not press save)
9. Enable show Advanced options
10. Change the ip settings to static
11. Enter the ip address which you've noted down in steps 3 & 4
12. Enter the noted ip address in the ip address
13. Also Enter the gateway address in the column below which you find from your cmd prompt giving the command ipconfig
14. The network prefix length ,DNS 1 And DNS 2 Will be automatically assigned
15. Now click Save
Thats it .......You're Done
incase if the Avoided poor connection occurs again repeat the steps from 6 till the end giving the same ip address which you've noted down
ENJOY ! ! ! ! !
I've fixed it
Hello.
I fixed this bug, it isn't poor conection... it is an error about dhcp server in the android 4.x
First you need to download and install ipconfig app from aptoide
So you need to try to conect to your network, while it is showing obtaining ip adress, you should go to ipconfig app (be as fast as posssible)
Finally you should find your ip number and your gateway, if you don't, click in refresh.
Now go to settings and long click into your network, so click in advenced settings and change dhcp to static IP, here are the recommended settings:
IP- get in ipconfig
Gateway- it will automatically set, the most used is 192.168.1.1
Prefix- 22 or 24
Subnet mask- 255.255.255.0
Dns1- 8.8.4.4
Dns2- 4.4.4.4 (no need to set)
I wanna develop an app to do it automacally, but I need help... I'm pretty noob, I've got only 14 years old
Edited: Oops, I didn't saw your solution, anyway it doesn't work on all routers cause some routers are set to another ip
I'm glad to help you

S8 Internet connection may not be available issue

Just got the S8 and I have 3 Wi-Fi access points at home to cover the whole house. My S8 has been registered with the passwords for all of the APs but it continually rejects the connections with an exclamation mark after the WiFi icon having connected and then shown a message that the Internet connection may not be available. The Internet connection is available as other devices are connected and using it perfectly. If I switch the Wi-Fi on and off and reboot the S8 the issue corrects itself but I should not have to go through that nonsense every time I come home and want to use my Wi-Fi. I have explored the advanced options on the connection settings and they appear to be quite limited (DHCP Etc). Is there some way to solve this issue? I have no problem with other android devices connecting to the same hotspots. Any ideas that might lead to a solution would be appreciated.

I had this problem when i first got my s8 from vodafone but when i got this latest update it's been good no issues with internet anymore.
I have this problem as well with my S8 from Verizon. Worked flawlessly for a week and them today I get this error. Very frustrating. I know the SMG955U from Verizon is already unlocked but is there any way to put the International ROM on the phone seeing that the Verizon and the International are the same?
I've tried all the resets etc and the WiFi connects but I get the 'Internet connection may not be available' message.
Update 27/04/2017
Thanks for the reply. My S8 developed some interesting issues including the switching on of 'do not disturb' mode intermittently and along with the Wi-Fi issue the mobile data was failing in areas where a full 4G signal was present. Rebooting, resetting etc did not resolve the issue and I returned the phone to CPW for advice. The staff at the Glasgow store wasted no time and exchanged it on the spot after some negotiation with their technical service centre. Full marks to CPW for the prompt service and I can report that all of the previous issues have now been resolved with the replacement handset. I thought it worthwhile to post this information so that others who experience similar issues may be able to get a similar resolution.
Poor WIFI performance
I also have issues with the wifi of the phone, /i will get the terminal replace some time today or next week.
1. WIFI keeps disconnecting, actually it's flapping connct&disconnect for 5-10 min until it finally connects, on this matter I have seen on the acces point that it tried to allocate an ip from an unknown without asking DHCP server for an IP renew it actually tries to alocate itself the last known ip, and clearly disconnects because of lack of internet access, this happens normally as power saving mode is on, disabeling power saving and assigning a static ip on the phone seems to resolve the issue.
2. poor wifi signal... no fix for this thus far
- i have 580Mbps speed connection on my S5 and only 120-240Mbps on my S8, steaming not working and connection in general very bad, time ots and stuf, although I position myself at 10cm away from the wifi router antenas i only get 540Mbps signal, although I have an AC1750 router , s5 gets 840 in the same spot... I think the modem(that is part of the Exynos chipset) does not work wekll with Atheros based AP´s , I have an Archer C7 with 2.4ghz QCA9558 chipset capable of 450 Mbps theoretical speed, but only uses 2 antenas as s8 only has 2 from my knowledge and reaches a max of 140Mbps(should of connected at 300Mbps at 10cm in theory ) with the s8 and QCA9880-BR4A on the 5ghz side of things with a theoretical speed of 1300Mbps should work at 866 with the S8 because of the 2 antenas of the S8.
phone changed 90% of problems fixed
Hello, just got my phone replaced, tha new unit has way better wifi signal considering I hace atheros router and the phone has broadcom 43xx chipset... worth considerign changing to a broadcom router...
Hi,
I have found a solution to this problem.
1. GO to wifi settings
2. Forget the wifi network
3. CONNECT AGAIN BUT BEFORE CONNECTING GO TO ADVANCED OPTIONS AND CHOOSE STATIC INSTEAD OF AUtOMATIC. Enter in the ip address etc and connect.( It requires to be entered manually) Problem will be solved.

Change the DNS...
Hi there..
I had just the same problem with s8 plus and s7 edge(after updating to android 7.0), it kept saying "internet may not be available", I changed the DNS to 8.8.8.8 and tue problem solved. Go to SETTINGS》WIFI》SSID》MANGE NETWORK》change the IP SETTINGS to STATIC》then change the DNS1 to 8.8.8.8 hit save and you are good to go.
Sorry if there are any mistakes. I am new to XDA and not good in english.

I have same problem and it is very annoying. I got 2 S8 plus and both have the problem.
There are 3 WIFI Router that covers my house. I have problems saying internet might not be available every time I connect. This is very annoying. Other Phones in the house like Iphone do not have the problem.
What I noticed is that the IP range of my router is:
192.168.1.1
But my S8 says he is connected but the IP is
192.168.0.100
Anyone have same problem?
Thanks!

I found a quick work around on how to fix this temporarily until Samsung issues a patch.
just turn off 5ghz SSID broadcasting and you should be ok for now.
here is a quick how to video i made on just in case.
https://youtu.be/Nu5FjDPLn-M
I'm having a very similar problem with my home WiFi and my Verizon S8+ I bought from Samsung's website. I've tried switching from DHCP to static and entering all my info. No luck. I've also switched my dns1 to 8.8.8.8 and dns2 to 8.8.4.4, and my WiFi router is set to 2.4ghz only. No success in resolving the issue. Currently my phone will show the "internet may not be available" with the added exclaimation point for a few minutes when first connected, then the exclaimation goes away and I'll have regular full speed internet for around 25-45 seconds before it goes back to a non-internet state. Any suggestions?
Try changing in your router the security setting. If your using WPA2 AES/TKIP, change to just WPA2 TKIP and see if this works for you...
I was having the same exact issue for months. I changed to TKIP only and have been rock solid ever since. No more ! at all... I'm gonna switch to just AES today and see how that works.
Changed to WPA2-AES and within the hour had ! back and no internet. Went back to TKIP and rock solid again. Looks like a possible bug with AES to me. Sticking with wpa2-tkip setting for now.
I'm having this same exact issue.
Anyone who knows what to look for to fix this, what info or files do you need from me? I'm at the end of my tether with this ****
I am having the exact same issue on my galaxy tab s2, even on the replacement. Due to the being such an intermittent problem, it wouldn't do it when Samsung support checked it out...
This happens on both 2.4 ghz and 5 ghz frequency for me. I've tried downloading a wifi fixer, I've reset network settings, and turned off nearby device scanning. I've also tried doing what a forum suggested by changing the ip settings from dhcp to static but it wouldn't connect to wifi at all. Not sure what else to try...
I read that it may be due to nougat 7.0 software. I was suggested by Samsung to first put the tablet on safe mode (this disables third party apps, and would reveil if an app was causing the problem) but the problem still persists. Also did a hard reset on the first tablet I had but it still done the same problem...
I always thought that this was a is problem in 7.0, and was addressed in 7.1. Hopefully, when the next major update comes out, this issue will be resolved.
Oh come on Samsung!
It's been 4 months since the first post and still no solution.
And it's a basic wifi connection!
Internet may not be available! = Samsung may not be available
Heya all. First post I guess
Edit: Gah it was the second. I have to controll myself better and not spam.
So I had the same problem and tried more or less all.
My "solution" was to disable the firewall on the router which means some settings/security there was triggered. My guess is that it's the "Smart Network connection" that trigger it if the phone have both poor Wi-Fi and 4G. It then jumps back and forward = firewall detect strange behaviour and block. That's why there are so many strange "fix" related to the router - hidden network - no security - disable 5Ghz and so on.
Can someone please test asap as I have a plan But if it's not this to test

VPN clients keep disconnecting after 10+ minutes

Anyone else seeing this?
I tried both Nord VPN and Turbo VPN and both are experiencing the same issues.
After around 10 minutes of use either VPN client I use will disconnect.
I did set both apps not to optimize battery. It's like the app is getting killed in the background which is weird for 8gb of ram.
Try a different network and report back. My work wi-fi is "hit & miss" with all my devices (very restrictive network). I have to use obfuscated and tcp connection with Nord to even get to the VPN. Sometimes it'll cut "in and out" but that's on all my devices (6T, previous phones I had before, my laptop, tablet, etc.). If I use it anywhere else (home, other wifi networks) I've had zero issues.
And if you lock the app in recents?

Currently using Nord VPN and the only time it used to disconnect was when I rebooted. Have changed to auto connect and haven't noticed any disconnections.
I just upgraded to Android 9 on my OnePlus 5 and have been experiencing this as well. OpenVPN disconnects exactly every 20m01s, regardless if the screen is on and the network is actively being used. I've just tried OpenVPN Connect and it too will disconnect, though the connection will last longer (I didn't have a timer set to see how long). I tried changing setting in Android to always keep the VPN active (network setting and no battery optimization), but neither settings help. I had no such issues in the previous Android version for the OP5.
I had issues too, try disabling battery optimisation for the VPN app. If your not using an app, make sure you've enabled it as your always on VPN.
Lock in recent works for me.

Wifi not working properly after pie update

Mi Mi A1 can't connect to my home wi-fi, or if it connects, it will automatically disconnect after a while:
My router appears in the WiFi menu, stating that it is a "saved connection", but when i click on the ssid it just shows that he's trying to connect but then it goes back to the list of wifi networks, without showing any errors etc.
I've got no mac filter on my router so it can't be the new mac randomizer update already stated in the forum.
It all used to work well before updating to Pie (no root, no vpn method).
Thanks for your attention, let me know if i can provide more info about this problem
Identical issues for me, with identical conditions (no root/unlock)...
Anyone knows how to solve? I tried everything but nothing seems to work...
I'm having the same problem but only with some networks. No idea what's causing it.
had the same issue and after disabling "A-MPDU" or switched back to 54g only in router settings it worked again.

I suggest you try to disable the 5 GHz band on the router and see if it helps... on my old router running only on 2,4 GHz wifi works fine, but many other users are reporting problems, so it might be an issue with dual band routers; it's worth a try.

That's not the issue, I have a dual band router in my house and it works just fine.

Yet not all users had their MAC address changed with the update, so maybe not every terminal is subject to the issue... just saying.
I have same problem. It was due to change in Mac address during update.. I just simply login to router page...by 191.168.1.1
In wireless>wireless Mac filtering> add it latest MAC address along with new name...save it and try...it worked for me.

Thanks for your sumbission but unfortunately my modem doesn't support tweaking of AMPDU
What do you mean with 54g?

I've got no mac filtering enabled on my modem so this is definitely not the problem. Seems a problem with the 5ghz frequency. maybe reduced bands or stability problems - can anyone check which bands are enabled for 5ghz connection?
Apparently the problem is the Modem of the official Pie ROM, because the latest Pie update have issues with LTE bands and WiFi. Hope Xiaomi will release a fix soon!

A1 over home WiFi does not work correctly. Internet access is available, but it is impossible to view mail on gmail, send pictures to tweeter, whatsup. PIE version obtained by OTA, root no. MAC address when updating to PIE changed. There is no filtering on the router by MAC. Range one 2.4. I changed the firmware of the router, did a complete reset of the Mi A1 to the factory settings. Forced to assign DNS. The result on the home router is not reached. 8 Android devices are connected to the router. All work without problems with all resources.

In my modem settings I can deactivate the 801.11n standard and only use 801.11g (with max speed 54mbit). Since AMPDU is a "n" feature it makes sense that this works, too.
I hope Xiaomi will fix this soon, I have issues with other Wifi access points, which I can't change

Unfortunately, I can't even change this. The only thing my modem allows is turning 5ghz on/off 2.4ghz on/off and manually changing the channel and the band width

I suggest you try to change Wi-Fi encryption from Wpa2-psk (AES) to wpa2-psk (TKIP). Other users regained access to their Wi-Fi this way.
Same problem here..... im using MAC filter/TKIP/2.4Ghz (5Ghz OFF), disabled mac filter as workaround waiting for a fix
EDIT: Ok fix found, just remove the previous mac (before update to pie) from the mac whitelist

This is not the fix for this problem - This is a solution to the new FEATURE of android Pie in order to increase Mac Address Security
