Can't connect to wifi. On a wifi only DS7

[chrisfisher864]

No wifi just says obtaining ip address! My captivate did that once and I reset the data and it connected just fine but my streak 7 has no luck! Any advice on what to do?

Thanks

Reboot the router first thing, it's possible that's the problem. Small home routers are pretty unreliable.

Otherwise, might make sure you don't have MAC filtering on and your DS7's mac address is entered (correctly).. Failing that, you might try switching encryption types around.

So far I've found no problems with wifi on mine on some 10 or so different AP's.

I did a reboot on the router first thing! Then I also cleared all devices from it and still nothing that's when I did the wipe all data on my s7 I did that by holding down the vol up and power and did the clear everything even user data its 100% back to the way I bought it. I have not rooted or anything on my s7 its always been factory.

Check your network settings and make sure it is not trying to pull a specific or static IP address or anything. Press Menu then select Advanced when in the Wi-Fi Settings screen.

try static?

try to give your DS7 a static IP on the DS7 within the subnet, mask & gateway of your WiFi

maybe its just not picking up the DHCP?

Delete the connection on your Streak 7 and then redo. If it's a secured connection, it's possible that you've entered the password incorrectly. Doesn't hurt to try.

Thanks all for the help I fixed it the next morning after posting this! I had to clear the devices on my router and then reboot and it connected just fine.. but thank you all for the help!
