I was on stock image and everything was just fine.

Then I flashed Omega 8.0(4.1.2 base) and whenever I try to connect to Wifi with WPA-PSK or WPA-PSK2 i get authentication error occured whereas my other mobile phones and laptops are connecting to it without any problem.

To remedy the problem I reverted back to stock but the problem still exists.

Any suggestions ?

Looks like Galaxy S 3 user were facing similar issues as well as Nexus users and came up with a patch for PSK encryption.

The same issue is raised in Omega forum , [ ROM ][ LJ2 4.1.2 ]◥███◣ CriskeloRom NOTE II V04.1 forum and Q\A section several times.
But still no one wants to touch it or try to find a solution to it.

This is SAD.

Also Redpill v.0.9 had the same issue , hwta i do not understand is why I am getting this in stock version.
Trying to do a factory default to see if it helps.

Same here

Yesterday I updated my Note II to 4.1.2 (stock) and since then I cannot connect to internet. Same message all the time: getting ip-address and after that it says I have a poor connection.
I have been all over the internet ofcourse but I haven't read 1 answer anywhere.
I calles Samsung Netherlands and they adviced me to reset to factory settings, which I had already done of course. As a last resort they adviced me to go to a service center to get a new mirror. They would not be surprised if the phone would have to be sent fot factory repair.
That is something I try to avoid obviously.
For Dutch members: I am on KPN.

Found fix for me, maybe you to

Would not connect to my wireless router until I changed my router to use G only. I had originally set to N only. So take your router off N, and use G only.

I fixed my wifi issue by flashing perseus kernel

Simply after flashing, i tried connecting again and Voila! Connected~!
And the net is working fine!
So i suggest you try that and report back how it panned out for you
Cheers!

perseus kernel didn´t help me....
Router Settings changed to 802.11g didn´t help me ..

A interesting thing is, that there are positions in the room, where i can get a connection..
If i am right next to the router, i don´t get a authentication error .

Seems like somehow it get´s a very poor wifi signal,
but i am 100% sure its not a router problem. It worked very good in 3
different locations with three different routers, but now i have this problem
at every location it worked before. All routers have not been changed !

If I install PhoeniX ROM I have the same problem; when I try to connect to my wifi, it says "authentication error occurred". But I only get it with Phoenix. If I change ROMs (TW or AOSP) again, the problem goes away. It's a pity, because I really like the look of Pheonix, and want to try it out. Anyone know how I can test to see what's causing the error?

My problem with the wifi authentication error in PheoniX appears to be related to the "Net Speed Tweaks" option in the installation. Installing the ROM without selecting this tweak solved my problem.
