Help Wifi problems

Welcome to Android Forums!

This could be caused by several things....

What wireless security mode is the router/AP using? Ime Android devices don't play nice with WPA2-PSK/TPIK - use AES.

If using a router, is it set up to act as a DHCP server so that the handset can obtain an IP address?

I've also seen this issue occasionally with all my devices when resuming from lengthy standby. The solution is as simple as enabling Flight Mode for 30s or so then switching back to normal.
