    I don't know what the problem is or how to solve it, everything was ok but about 2 weeks ago I can't use the wifi, says obtaining IP address , it disconnects and does the same thing over again :mad:, if someone knows the solution I'll be grateful , thanks.

    Welcome to AF! :)

    It would help a great deal if I knew which device you're having an issue with.

    However, you could try forgetting the connection, then re-entering it's details.

    Do you have any external apps etc installed that control WiFi? Green power, Juice Defender etc?

    Have you turned it off, pulled the battery, re inserted, then turned it on again.

    Do you know how to change the Wireless Channel on your rotuer?

    Maybe you could download "wi-fi analyzer from the market and see if that gives you any ideas. Other than that...?
