I've tried manually entering the connection name and password but no luck is there any solution to this I just dropped an Iphone I don't want to feel bad about it this way . I can connect via cable why not ad-hoc wifi
please is there any solution I'm now !
Really ! answer yet
Android's Ad-Hoc functionality is disabled, so you simply can't connect to ad-hoc networks.
But behold, the dev community has created a patch for it.
Further information (and the patch) can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14441201&postcount=3581 (from the ARHD thread)
will it be safe . I mean can I fix it if i doesn't work without Hard reset !
Yeah I believe there was a flashable zip to reverse the update posted too.
Didn't work my device keeps restarting. I had to re flash again.
Thanks any way

After updating to the final ICS rom I noticed that the WiFi really sux big time..always dropping even when I am sitting next to my router!even more it just keeps disconnecting and connecting every minute..I tried the Wifix manger as suggested by one good friend but no go!nothing improved at all..I thought about sharing my WiFi suffering in case anyone experiencing the same difficulties or have any suggestion to sort this out,thanks alot for any help provided
It happened to me once: it kept connecting and disconnecting. Forget your network then connect again and it should work. If not, reboot the phone and try again. It worked for me and since, it didn't happen again.

I've got the same pro just like u even with Acronuim ISC V1.0
I tried everything and all the suggestions but no improvement..I cant connect for more than one minute without disconnecting..hate this

Did you try to reset your wifi?. It seems you are the only one who has this problem.

Hey There,
i`ve updated my Arc S to ICS today via the Guide here on the Forum. The Problem i`m having now is the following: My Wifi Connection on the Phone won`t wory anymore. More specifically, the connection with my Wifi Router. The interesting thing is, that it worked just well, before i updated to ICS. In the Wifi Tab it says "Authentification Problem".
I`ve rebooted my Phone twice, resetted the Router, unplugged the Power Source but nothing seems to work. Although i can connect to another Wifi located nearby, I can`t connect to mine.
Any suggestions I haven`t tried yet?
Thanks in advance.

Hey josephnero,
the fix seems useful, but how do I install .apk files without any kind of File Manager or Connection to the Internet?

Do you copy & paste the wifi password?
Had the same problem and found out that during copy&paste I get one unwanted space so the password is wrong.

Hey, no I didn`t c&c the wifi password. Just typed it in again. And I actually Triple-Checked
Jack, have you tried forgetting the network and trying again? Are you able to connect to any other WiFi?
I would also check the security its trying to use, ensure that it's set to the same on your network.

Hey, I`ve tried all the possible options that are there. The main Problem I`m having now, is how to install .apk files onto the Phone without a Wifi, Bluetooth Connection. I wanted to try the fix that was mentioned earlier, but I can`t install it.
What about USB? Or a sd card reader? Failing that do you have a data plan?

Yeah, USB I do have
But still, how do I Install an app onto the Phone/SC Card? The Phone is rootet and I have Superuser rights. Yeah, and I do have a Data Plan, but the Volume is used up.
Then just plug the phone in set the phone to debug mode and allow installing from unknown sources and push the .apk into /data/app and check the permissions. You do need to have adb from the SDK though. Have a look around on here their should a how to.

just delete dhcp list and reboot phone
use root browser lite from google market, navigate to root: /data/misc/, delete dhcp folder, reboot phone.
omg, tnx so much for the info!!!
worked like a charm!
finally i got wifi back!
i'm going to borrow this thread, i have wifi problem too, yesterday i got connected to cable network, so now my router setting are on automatic dhcp-for cable, before was pppoe and that worked great, now on that dhcp can't get wifi to work, i can find my network and connect to it, but it's no internet. on the same rom and everything i got wifi working no problem, so the only problem here is that dhcp.
edit: my sister is having the same problem on samsung s8500 running bada and before network change he can connect to wifi with no problem, not it's the same as for me.
any ideas?

You should install the WiFi modules, that can be downloaded from same place as the ROM itself.

so i suggest u to first reset to factory
OR
flash *Stock Rom by Odin
if u have software problem it will solve in this way and if u have hardware problem take to samsung service for replace
:good:
As a short-term test, set your access point up to be completely open access and see if the Note can connect to it.
If it can, verify that the security settings you add back in match what you're adding back in on the Note.
If you get to a point where there's an element you can't match, your wifi router logs may be helpful (depends on the quality of the AP how much logging it will do.)
The bad news is that some devices and some APs just don't play well together. Hopefully you can find a setting where your device is playing nicely.
maybe not ROM
My Note 2 has the same problem
i think issue with samsung maybe
any help please post
Have you tried simply power cycling the router (unplug, wait a minute, then plug in again)?

I dont know if Im absolutely right, but I use a USB 3G dongle, and when I had set it up, there was a note there which told me that if I chose WEP security, wifi devices with 802.11 frequency (Such as our phone and others) wont be able to connect.
So its more like the encryption issue rather than software issue. You can still check it out. Im just sayin as a dev.

Okay. I will try to fix it. Thanks.
For the meantime, if you have a computer at your office, you can use USB Tethering to use internet on your phone.

I couldnt be able to get pass the wifi opening set up it says authentication problem, I tried several wifi devices but it just can't connect through. It was happen after when i change its mac address. The story there is, i change my mac address because one of our neighbor's wifi seems always blocking my mac address so i really need to have or change it into a new one so i could connect to their wifi again, at the first place it worked smoothly as if everything is not screwd (here is the directory/path ive changed "/persist/wifi/.mcadress" then i edited the values) running kitkat version 4.4.4 ktup8. So this morning i decided to wipe its data and cache and it booted but now i cannot connect to any wifi im stuck in the opening set up, tried also reverting to another stock rom 6.0.1 marshmallow still the problem exist and i can still see the mcaddress it still not change to the default one even though i reflashed it into a different firmware. Please i dont want to lose my tablet im begging you guys. And Iam so careless that I dont have any a nandroid back up or please anyone could give me a file a nandroid back up so I could restore it using wugfresh toolkit. Please help me....
tldr; He was freeloading off his neighbor's wifi and the neighbor blocked him via his mac address. So he changed his mac address to get around it and the neighbor blocked that one too. Now he can't change it again and corrupted his network stack in the process.
