Samsung galaxy tab2 won't connect to my hub

Hi, I wonder if anyone knows how they get there hub to allow a samsung galaxy tab2 to access the wifi. All I keep getting is that it finds the hub, I then enter my password when prompted. The tablet then shows as authenticating, then save and secured appears under hub name, but within seconds keeps reverting back to authenticating and then back to saved and secured.
There's nothing wrong with the tablet's wifi as I took it back to the shop and it connected with their wifi immediately. I have windows nokia smartphone and that works fine. I've tried a suggested solution of manually connecting but still no sucess.
One person suggested accessing my router and entering the mac address of the tablet but I have no idea how to access my router. Please help if you can as my money is looking to have been wasted at the moment.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Try going into your phones wifi settings. Select your Homehub and click and hold on it. This should bring up an option to forget the network. Select this option. Once done, turn off the phone then restart it. Go into the wifi settings again and scan for networks. Locate your Homehub, making sure it is your homehub and not a neighbours, and select it. Enter the wireless passkey found on the rear of your Homehub. (see link). All being well it should connect.

If this doesn't help then do a factory reset of the Homehub by pressing a pin into the recess button on the rear for about 20 seconds then try the above again. The factory reset sorts out any configuration problems in the hub.

  • Samsung Galaxy S5 Won't Connect to WiFi

    I recently switched from a Samsung Galaxy S3 to an S5 and my fiancee switched from an iPhone 4S to an S5. We've always been able to connect wonderfully to our WiFi from both the S3 and 4S (and still can), but every time we try to connect to the WiFi from our S5's, it'll try for a bit saying "obtaining IP Address" then after about a minute it will pop up with an error message that says "Attention: AP currently not in use. Internet connection slow." And gives the options to "Cancel", "Retry", or "Forget."
    The password is correct (I have retyped it MANY times), the signal strength is strong, and the WiFi works PERFECTLY with my Galaxy S3, her iPhone 4S, and my laptop.
    I thought that maybe it was just something to do with the S5's at first, BUT when my fiance's upgrade date came around, she first chose an HTC One M8 and it would not connect to the WiFi either. She switched to the S5 a few days later.
    Any help on this subject would be GREATLY appreciated as we've been having this problem for some time now only to get answers from people like "you're typing in your password wrong" or "send the phones to Samsung for repairs." I do not believe it's solely the Galaxy S5's fault. There's got to be something else.
    Thanks!

    I understand your concerns.  We're here to assist.  It's certainly not Verizon Wireless's intentions for you're wifi to be malfunctioning on your Samsung device.  The next step we'd have you take is to restart the device in safe mode and test wifi.  You can view instructions here; http://vz.to/1B5LU1C.
    Please let us know if you need further assistance.

  • Can I download flash player on my Samsung Galaxy Tab2 10.1?

  • Installing Flash Player on Samsung Galaxy Tab2 10.1 running Android 4.2.2

    I need Flash Player on my Samsung Galaxy Tab2 10.1 running Android 4.2.2, but I'm getting a message that it's not supported on my device.  Why is it not supported?

    Your tablet (Kindle or Galaxy) uses the Android Operating System.
    Adobe stopped ALL development of Flash for Android last year. (July 2012) That includes Kindle as well as Samsung Tablets. Additionally, Samsung and Amazon have ended support for Flash in ALL of their newest tablet models.
    The following is from Samsung Support (07/31/2013):
    "Beginning August 15, 2012 we will use the configuration settings in the Google Play Store to limit continued access to Flash Player updates to only those devices that have Flash Player already installed. Devices that do not have Flash Player already installed are increasingly likely to be incompatible with Flash Player and will no longer be able to install it from the Google Play Store after August 15th, 2012."
    And from Kindle Support (07/31/2013):
    "The Amazon Silk web browser on Kindle Fire 1st Generation supports some, but not all, versions of Flash. Adobe Flash is pre-installed on a 1st Generation Kindle Fire and is disabled by default.
    If you see a message to install Flash while using your Kindle Fire, this means that the content you're attempting to view uses Flash. If you want to view the content, you'll need to enable Flash through the Silk settings menu.
    If a web page suffers from slow performance due to Flash, or you're unable to view a web page with Flash enabled, we recommend switching to mobile view when browsing a Flash-heavy website to see if that solves your problem:
    Some popular websites may also have an app available. Check Amazon Appstore, accessible through the Apps library on your Kindle Fire, for availability.
    The Amazon Silk web browser on Kindle Fire 2nd Generation, Kindle Fire HD 7", and Kindle Fire HD 8.9" doesn't support Flash.
    Some sites use alternative web technologies to Flash in their mobile versions. We recommend switching to mobile view when browsing a website with Flash content to see if that solves your problem:
    Some popular websites may also have an app available. Check Amazon Appstore, accessible through the Apps or Games library on your Kindle Fire, for availability."
    See: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions. html
    There are older versions of Flash Player (for Android) at that link, but there are no guarantees any of them will work.
    See also: "How do I manually install Flash Player on my Android device?"
    You can find info about "Dolphin" for Android at: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser It seems to be the browser of choice to play Flash content on an Android device.
    Also, check the Android forums to see what their "gurus" recommend.

    Is it posible to get a free method to rotate documents in Adobe for Android? I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab2 tablet

    There is no free tool available to rotate documents. To rotate documents with Adobe Acrobat DC, you will need an Acrobat Pro DC subscription. The subscription entitles you for Organize pages tool on Android, Organize pages and Edit PDF tool on iOS as well as the Acrobat PRo DC software on desktop and web alongwith the all the individual services.

  • New Samsung Galaxy S5 won't download MMS messages

    Hi,  I just bought a Samsung Galaxy S5 and it wont download the MMS messages.  I've looked everywhere for answers but can only seem to find info on previous iphone users switching to the Galaxy.  This is quite aggravating and would appreciate any advice. 

    I am going through the same thing.  I have read the info here and it has been pretty useless.  I am coming from an old-style Casio Brigade.  I would receive a picture message, click on it, and it would open.  With my new Samsung Galaxy S5, this doesn't happen.  There are several messages sitting there, all with a download tab -click it and nothing happens.  I am connected to wifi, and my phone is receiving text messages, so why no photo messages?  Of course, if I turn on "mobile data" and choose to be charged an outrageous amount for data, then everything works as advertised.  It SHOULD be able to receive this like any other text message, as it did on my old phone.  If it needs the internet (and I don't understand why it would), it IS connected via wifi in my home.  How do you or I fix this so that I don't have to use my mobile data each time I receive a group or photo message?

  • Samsung smart TV won't connect to the Internet

    Hi
    We have just brought a new Samsung smart tv (UE40ES6710) however we can't get it to connect wirelessly to the Internet. We are using the BT home hub can anyway shed any light on this??
    We have contacted BT who have told us that there is nothing wrong with our broadband connection and we don't have any problem connecting our iPad and iPhones. It's just the TV that won't connect.
    Thanks

  • Galaxy S3 won't connect to DI-624 router

    Just bought a new Samsung Galaxy S3 but when I got home found that it would not connect to my Verizon-provided home router (DI-624).  Signal strength is great; it sees the network and tries to connect, but always fails to get an IP address (DHCP is enabled) and then declares the network to be out of range.  However, it connected at the Verizon store and connects to my neighbor's network across the street (range about 100 feet).  Meanwhile, I have two laptops that connect to my network with no problem.
    Router: D-Link DI-624
    Hardware version: C3
    Firmware/Date: 2.50DDM / 09 Sep 2005
    Everything in router set to default.
    I tried to update the router firmware with version C firmware from D-Link and got a file incompatibility message.  Turns out that the "DDM" means that the firmware is some kind of verizon custom job which will only upgrade to new firmware from verizon, which I can't find.
    Any help or ideas will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks a lot.

    You need to go into the router, get to this page and then experiment with the Wireless Channels.  Verizon doesn't do firmware updates for that router.  In fact if you called verizon they would gladly give you a new actiontec router.  In most area's they are doing proactive router replacements.  
    Once on that page, change your wireless channel.  Try channel 1, 6 and 11 and your Galaxy s3 should connect on one of those channels.   Also make sure you are using the right SSID and Passphrase from the same page, and while there, you might as well bump it up to WPA PSK for increased security, but that last one is optional. 

  • Why doesn't my Macbook pro recognise my Samsung Galaxy S2 phone when connected via USB?

  • Samsung Blueray C5500 won't connect to my E2000 using Samsung wireless LAN (WIS09ABGN)

    After dealing with Samsung tech support I was able to get the blueray to connect to internet with a wired ethernet connection, but it won't work with a wireless connection.  Per tech support I need to open ports 80, 443 and 8080 on my router.  I browsed this sight but I'm still not sure how I open those ports.  One message showed a way but it also said I need to get the IP address of the bluray, but that's confusing??  Do I need the IP of the Samsung Link Stick?  Where do I find that?  How do I open ports?
    Thanks

    Open the setup page of the router. Go to Applications and gaming tab. Click on Port triggering sub tab.
    In application name type ABC. In start and end port type the port number 80. Again in  start and end port box type 80. Check the box enabled.
    In seconds application type DEF, In start and end port type 443. Check the box enable.
    In this way you can try to open the ports on the router.
    If that doesn't work then you will need to use port forwarding. In this case you will need to check the IP address of Blu ray. I think if you go network settings of Blu ray, you will find the IP address of the device.

  • Samsung Note 2 won't connect.

    Hi guys, I am trying to connect a Samsung Note 2 to my Macbook Air and the device is not recognised.  I have installed Android File Transfer and it still won't work.  Any ideas?

        JTJACKS, let's get you connected to WiFi. I recommend that you power cycle your phone off/on to soft reset it. Additionally, you will also need to verify that you've entered the correct WiFi password for the device in your house. Keep us posted.

  • Samsung Galaxy S4 won't turn on, and will only vibrate when charging?!

    My Galaxy S4 had a meltdown of sorts.  It suddenly stopped charging and happened when I had 1% battery left.  Once the phone died and I tried keeping it on the charger and everything, it would only vibrate about every three seconds with a pitch black screen, and that was only occasionally.  I did all the obvious things to try.  I also tried plugging the usb charger into my computer; that seemed to help at first with a different result but only gave me the battery symbol on the phone in black and white with the circle in the center not moving and not charging. I tried to do the hard reset and also tried a friends charger and neither worked.  When plugged into the computer, a pop up sometimes comes up and says the device you have plugged in has malfunctioned and cannot be read.
    I am currently out of the country for another 2 months, so finding help for this in a store won't exactly be easy.  Any help will be appreciated greatly!

        booperman13,
    Zoinks! Sorry to hear you are having trouble so far away. It sounds like it was working fine when you first replaced the battery and you had previously done a factory reset. The computer isn't recognizing it and it isn't charging. So, by process of elimination, based on what you have described it sounds like there might be a problem with the USB cable. 
    Since you replaced that battery have you tried another charger? That might give us greatly clarity as to the nature of the problem. As you are currently out of our reach, if it works fine with another charger and you need to replace it, I would reach out to Samsung for assistance with finding a local provider that has their charger or usb cable in their inventory: http://bit.ly/1v0IVFI .

  • Which is better apple ipad2 or samsung galaxy tab2

    I just got a samsung tab2,but I wanted to know which is better ipad2 or tab2

    Since you have a tab2, obviously you think it's better than an iPad 2. If the reviews say the iPad 2 is better, are you going to return the tab2?

  • Galaxy S5 Won't Connect to Email Server for POP3 or IMAP

    I use POP3 from a rackspace webmail account. I use it on my PC and a few mobile devices.
    Got a new S5 and all seems good except setting up my rackspace email.
    I know all the setting are good, I can verify them with rackspace and on my other devices.
    I have confirmed I have a good internet connection, both via wifi and the Vz network.
    I tried setting up as IMAP instead, and the S5 also does not authenticate with the email server.
    Rackspace can't help me, their settings are simple and work fine on other devices.
    I've tried using my wifi and with wifi turned off.
    Other mail (yahoo and gmail) both work fine.
    Any good ideas?

    After setting up Incoming Server it returns an error ”Unable to connect to server –ERR Authentication failed)”
    I never get beyond this.
