Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi Problem

Thread Starter

HI in that location, I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 WiFi version which is having connectivity issues, I have read online that there are many with the same problem but havent been able to find a solution.
When you connect to the WiFi the connection works but for some reason afterward a few days information technology stops working.

The tab shows that y'all are connected and I get full confined but you just tin't connect.

I take tried Samsung online support and they dont want to know well-nigh it considering I am in Australia, they ask me to call Australian support.

I call Samsung Commonwealth of australia and they don't know how to fix the problem.

Note that I have done a hard reset in the past and it has stock-still the problem but it just comes dorsum after a few days.

Any help is appreciated..

Try rebooting your modem.
Mine and my wife TABs play upward with WiFi and do kind of reboot, and i noticed that it was
only happening at home while on our WiFi and not anywhere else, once we reboot the modem they come all skillful.
Worth a get!!

I take exactly the same result, and only with my home WiFi. All connections away from home work showtime time.
Having to reboot the rooter and/or the Tab is, honestly, a pain in the @rse!
Permit's hope this is fixed when the ICS upgrade comes out.
Yep, and then he goes on to say it but comes back after a couple of days! :-(
My problem is usually anywhere BUT home! WHat is a trouble for me is - finding an option for inbound username and password info that is ofttimes required by wifi networks!
he tab shows it'due south connected (Not!), simply won't go anywhere - and I KNOW it'south because I need to enter that info - - but information technology usually does not give me an option to exercise and so!! EVEN whn I tell information technology to "Forget" that wifi connection
If it'southward only with that 1 connection, the problem probably isn't the Tab, and probably won't be fixed with whatsoever upgrade to the Tab.
I've had null problems with WiFi. Information technology is probably your router or modem that is the problem.
Belkin and D-Link routers are garbage. I recommend Netgear or ASUS. Linksys isn't bad either all though they've gone downhill.
Howdy All;
I have a high end Linksys Router and have the same result. In my case, if I ability bike the Tab's WiFi, information technology always reconnects. I am a fan of Android and for the most part this is a solid production just Samsung gets depression marks for support. I would have bought a IPAD 2 except that I need Flash. If there are SAMSUNG folks watching these postal service, please do not ignore these messages.
Y'all have to narrow it down and isolate the issue ane by ane. First things first is, brand sure that you accept this trouble on all wifi connection. If it is only at your home, it'southward probably and result with your wireless router or your ISP.
I also have this issue simply I find the router equally the culprit. Every time I go to e wifi freezone, fifty-fifty if I have only i bar, the connection is stable but when I am at home, information technology turns on and off, I replaced my router and that's it.
I have a Cradlepoint router with a Verizon broadband carte. Been using the aforementioned combo for years. In all that fourth dimension I've never had the router exist the cause of losing connectivity. I can see in the router software when Verizon stops working, & information technology's ever the information card. I reconnect with the data bill of fare & off I go. Not complaining about Verizon because sometimes days go past that I don't accept to reset, but if I have a problem, it'south never the router.
Also, to the person who doesn't go the dialog to enter a password - if you are connecting to a router that does MAC filtering but doesn't have a password, I don't remember you will get an error message or option to enter a countersign. When I starting time got my Wifi Tab I forgot to add together the MAC to the router, and that's exactly what happened. Added the MAC & I've been good to become ever since.
My married woman and I both take the ten.ane WIFI but tabs.
My router is a Linksys wired model that I bought in 2007.
I installed an Apple Airport Express for wireless access for the tablets (the merely
wireless devices nosotros have).
Our tablets always connect without problems (haven't tried connecting via WIFI in locations
other than our domicile).
Every bit others take posted, your router is the likely upshot.
Well, nosotros accept a Cisco WAP 2000 and no need to say that is NOT a shitty wap. In that location is never an upshot to connect our laptops to the wap.
Got a tab2 Wifi & mobile. In the initial setup, 'network disabled, poor connexion'. Afterwards the initial setup via the settings, same thing. Afterward a factory rest, same thing.

It finds the Wifi, connects, gets an IP adress, and then gives always the same message...

Very strange because all the other devices connect without problems, also my HTC sense, my wife's Xperia, my HP laptop, her Samsung laptop,... So I discover it hard to believe that is would be the wap who causes the trouble!

Any ideas here?
How-do-you-do Android Fans,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1.
I tin can't get it to recognize my Modem. It doesn't even pick up my neighbors indicate.
I have a Cisco Modem/Router from Xfinity.
I don't know how to get the Tab Recognize any WiFi signals. It basically scans and zilch.
Please Help.
Thanks,
Will
Let'due south commencement with the basics. I don't want to audio condescending or anything, only we should cover the basics before resorting to more drastic measures. If you don't know the answer to 1 or more of these questions, inquire and maybe we tin can aid. As well, what version of Android are you running; most people run iv.0.four these days, but 3.2 is nevertheless rather popular and seems to be more prone to these issues.
Is the WiFi is turned on?
Is the tablet out of plane mode?
Can y'all see a message appear every 10 seconds or so that information technology is actively scanning?
Are any public WiFi signals appearing, for instance if you take it to a Starbucks or other public WiFi hot spot?
Has it ever worked in the by?
If so, have you made any changes since it last worked?
Have y'all tried taking it back to the store yous bought it from and asking them to try and connect it?
Take you tried a manufacturing plant reset?
I accept wifi issues with all my Samsung devices at dwelling. I have a Netgear CG3100 in my bedroom, where I mainly apply my devices. Total wifi signal from this router and information technology will drop off a lot.
I accept a Netgear WGT634U in my garage also broadcasting a WLAN. I become ii bars (half as much) coverage from my sleeping room - works perfectly.

Both routers are Netgear. Previous to the CG3100 I had a Billion BiPAC 4707 VGO I call back information technology is. Would act the same as the CG3100.

The WGT634U has an Atheros WLAN chip in it. From a quick look, I think the CG3100 has Broadcom. I am not 100% certain, but I think it comes down to which WiFi chipset is in your router. Some chis just don't play well together.

Any other wireless devices I take (Toshiba L650 laptop) has no issue with the CG3100 wifi.

I always go back to what I've e'er said. If you can possibly plug a cablevision in that's the best option. Wifi still bites the big wang in my opinion.

The convenience and versatility of new tablet and phone devices go far worth putting upwardly with dodgfy wifi though. You lot just accept to search out hardware that will work with your brands.
My issues, are simply with my 7510-wifi tablet, and just since the ICS upgrade. Never had a problem earlier.
This house is running Macs, Iphones, Ipads, Pc'south, Gingerbread, ICS galaxy iii with no issues but ICS on the tablet upgrade is not happy!
I get continued, I surf, I walk away, and I have to plow the Wi-fi off and back on to become a connection. Then it doesn't go on it'south connection after it goes to slumber. Not like earlier the ICS upgrade.

Still searching.
Log in to home page of Router
Collect data required, password, email addresses etc
Wireless password.
RESTORE router back to mill settings, non only reboot

enter back passwords, email addresses

connect dorsum tablet to router through wireless and volition work.

This has to exist done through a pc ethernet connection

if using fibre optic broadband, you practice not demand passwords to log on.

Could not piece of work out why my Samsung phoneand tablet connected at home only non at preparation centre, washed this and both work at present perfect.
I had the same trouble, showed full connectedness status but says no connection when trying to open something upwards.
Did it at home and out at wifi hotspots
Not being hugely technical I went for the easy option first-I deleted all the apps I had downloaded and also the updates to the installed apps. This has stock-still the trouble and I am just putting apps and updates back on one at a time to see if it happens over again.
Promise this helps.
accept an ace and netgear router.
the ace actually connects fine when i turn the computer wifi connectedness off. i simply can't connect the galaxy ace when the computer is online. i just wanted to add i suggestion nobody here seems to have addressed. just because the milky way works everywhere but home, it yet doesn't hateful it'south your router. some internet admission providers don't allow you lot connect with more than one device at a fourth dimension. if you lot are already continued and try to connect with another device, they volition cake it. when you signed up for internet access, did you lot check off the box maxim you were going to be connecting with more than than one device? if you connect everywhere just home, attempt turning your computer off or just clicking on your figurer wifi connection and turning off the wifi, then try connecting with your phone. in my case the telephone connects 100% no problem when i shut off the reckoner wifi connection
And so I have a Samsung tab ii 10.1 which keeps losing wifi. It was fine for about 4/five months but now won't stay connected. My married man has exactly the aforementioned model (bought together) and his is fine. Its got to the bespeak where I cant even load a spider web page without losing connection. I have tried all the beneath to no avail...
- Resetting the router whilst 'forgetting' the connection on the tab and reconnecting over again.
- Resetting the whole tab. I tried to connect several times as a blank canvass, with just factory settings no apps etc, yet kept losing connection.
- Switching off husbands tab to come across if its the router getting stroppy about having ii tabs online.

Don't know what else to try...
It can't be the router, all other devices (ii x laptops, 2 10 mobiles, Wii, Playstation, husbands tab 2, ipod bear on) all work fine at the aforementioned time with no connectivity issues.

Is there anything else to attempt or have I just got a cleaved tab?
