When on WiFi, phone cannot connect to internet

I don't know if this is a phone issue or something with my home WiFi.
My network configuration is AT&T (2Wire 3800HGV-B) broadband router and WiFi --> Ooma Telo --> Internet. My rooted Droid 2 connects to the 3800HGV-B via WiFi without problems, but then cannot get internet. However, the IP given to the phone seems odd. It is given something like 10.200.21.49. The DHCP range for the 3800HGV-B is 192.168.xxx.xxx. The DHCP range for the Telo seems to be 172.27.xxx.xxx. I don't see how the phone is getting 10.200.xx.xx, but the bottom line is how can I fix it and get to the internet when on WiFi.
I am using a password on my router, so I don't believe I'm connecting to someone else's router. Also, I've connected using the WPS button, which again leads me to believe I'm connecting to my own router.
I'm not sure how to go about troubleshooting this issue. I would appreciate some guidance in this matter.
Thank you in advance,
Andrew

Never mind. I figured it out.
Somehow, in the manage settings area, the IP had been set to a static IP. Thus the DHCP obviously wasn't working.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

9300 Curve wifi problem - cannot connect to internet using only wifi once data turned off

I've got a 9300 Curve with a data plan from Rogers. I want to use my wifi in hotspots when I go overseas without using my data. I have no problems connecting to wifi networks. Once I turn off my data services, my connections to the wifi network show that the signal is still just as strong, but I can't use my browser, facebook, bbm, etc. - message is "unable to connect to internet" when I try and access my browser. This problem occurs whether I'm using a public hotspot or my home router. I used to be able to access wifi without using data from Rogers on my older Curve (can't remember the model), so I don't think it has anything to do with my plan.
Any suggestions/advice would be much appreciated!

Thanks for the reply!
Did you mean "leave data ON and turn off data roaming"? But that would just turn off my data while I'm roaming, and while I'm not roaming, it'll still access through data and not through wifi like I would prefer. That's what I understand, but pls correct me if I'm wrong! I guess I meant to also mention that whether I'm in my home zone or overseas, I still can't use my browser, bbm, etc through wifi only, with data turned off...it just says there's no connection to the server/internet, even though it shows that I'm connected to a wifi network.

My macbook pro cannot connect to internet via wifi

I have a Macbook Pro 2010 OS X 10.8.3. I cannot connect to internet via wifi (Air por). My Macbook Pro does not recognize my network and when I select it from the list of network it asks for my network password. when I type in my password a dialog box gives me timeout error. Please could anyone help me. I am using ethernet for my connection at the moment. Do I need to reset my macbookpro? if yes, what will happen to my applications and operating system (mountain lion)?

When you use the Airport utility what happens?
What is in the System Preferences control panel for Network settings?

Wi-Fi Setup Considerations
Things to consider before you begin
Start with a plan for the physical layout. Depending on whether you have an existing Wi-Fi network, or if you are using your AirPort Express as a standalone Wi-Fi device, there are several options available for you to choose from.
When using Ethernet, Cat6 cable is recommended.
The layout you choose should take into account environmental factors such as physical access, location, range, radio frequency interference, etc.
You will need to consider what AirPort Utility settings to adopt.
You will need to know whether you are using an AirPort Express (802.11b/g) or an AirPort Express (802.11a/b/g/n).
If you will be using more than one Wi-Fi base station, it may be helpful to read the article Extending the range of your wireless network by adding additional Wi-Fi base stations.

Why yahoo/gmail retrieval and facebook app so so slow when in WIFI. But using the internet to check for emails and facebook is fast using the same WIFI connection??

Why yahoo/gmail retrieval and facebook app so so slow when in WIFI. But using the internet to check for emails and facebook is fast using the same WIFI connection??

Hi SandyS_VZW,
Yes tried resetting the wifi connection and problem still persist.
Here it is...to make it clear. Connected thru the same wifi at home...
-> emails (yahoo/gmail) and facebook WEBSITES are working fine and fast when using/accessing thru a browser (chrome/samsung browser) - no problem with this.
-> emails (yahoo/gmail) and facebook APP is soooooo sloooww (thru the App). Slow I mean comparing it to using their browser/websites... news feeds/emails refreshing so quickly but not when using the APP installed in Samsung Galaxy Note 4. Slow like - It will take around 5-10minutes just to get your emails and news feed refreshed.
THIS HAPPENS ONLY WHEN CONNECTED THRU A WIFI which has a speed of 10-20mb. It is not happening when connected to the network data/plan.
My wife has the same Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (coming from different provider at&t) - same setup (emails, fb app), same wifi connection, but she's not experiencing anything like it.
Not sure why, I dont want to believe that while connected to a WIFI, Verizon is restricting anything and ******* me off to make me switch to my data plan connection everytime - which is Unfair!
Was there a known issue similar about this case?
thanks,

I cannot update ios as it says itunes cannot connect to internet, but it is

Hi everybody, please help me. I've been trying to update my ipad for ages. When i click update it says itunes cannot connect to internet, but it is and it works for iphone and ipod, it's just the ipad. tried with security settings as well, but it doesn't work. did the connectivity test and it says itunes cannot connect to internet...it is connected

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

ITunes cannot connect to Internet and iPad backup takes Forever

Hi, I have a workstation, high end Windows 7, PC, everything works perfect except the iTunes.. here's my story:
iTunes cannot connect to internet, nor can iTunes Store. I tried "Run Diagnostics" from Help menu, it showed "internet connection verified" green light BUT "Secure link to iTunes Store Failed" Red Light.
Then I thought, lets check other Apple App, Safari.. which couldn't load google for a long time and didn't even show any error, anyway, so I quit and uninstalled it.
I connected iPad for backup, it started all fine. At "Step 2 of 7" backing up, the loading/copying bar came half way up and stayed there for more than 20 hours. So, I quit that too. (Maybe, this is a different problem or connected, im not sure.)
I also checked the setting in Norton Firewall and made sure iTunes was allowed full access. Internet is working perfect in all the other applications, even "Apple Software Update" is working fine, checking for updates and everything. I have latest version of iTunes by the way.
THEN, I uninstalled everything Apple, left no trace of Apple in Program Files, and reinstalled iTunes. STILL SAME PROBLEM!!! Can anybody help? What could've happened, 'coz it used to work just fine before.
Thanks Guys!

start itunes.
update podcasts - no response.
click on store - no response.
use diagnostics for connectivity - no response.
sometimes, when i stop itunes from trying to connect, i will get an error code 11222

Cannot connect to internet in Solaris 10 OS.

I setup X4500 running solaris 10 OS. But, I cannot connect to internet. I do not understand whats wrong with that. When I ping google or any other site from X4500 its not transferring any packets. I can ssh it from a remote computer. So, running fine on the network. I have a static IP for that. Could someone please help me with this.
Thank you

Can you ping your own default gateway's IP address?
Can you traceroute to a public IP address like forums.sun.com (72.5.124.102)?
Can you use nslookup to resolve hostnames to IP addresses?
Does your /etc/resolv.conf have lines like:
nameserver 192.168.0.10
Where 192.168.0.10 is the IP address of your local DNS server(s)?
Did you copy /etc/nsswitch.dns over /etc/nsswitch.conf before trying to reach websites?
I hope investigating these questions help.

Cannot connect to Internet (using Safari)

Hi all.
I got my Macbook (unibody) for about 7 months ago. I have never had any problems with it, but now suddently Internet has stopped working. I am using only Safari. It just says "cannot connect to Internet" when i try get online. The weird thing is that Internet works to all other computers here at home, but not on mine. I have checked that all the cords are plugged in and all lights are on. I have tried using the internet cords for the other computers on my Mac, but they dont work. The cord i am using is working on other computers too, so there is nothing wrong with it. It is like my Mac doesn´t "recognize" that i have the cord plugged in. When i am on the systems settigns it says that everything is offline, and when i am on the Ethernet settings it does not have any IP adress written or anything, and i have chosen "Use DHCP".
What should i do? I was watching a movie yesterday and had the laptop in my lap, maybe it got overheated or something? Or is it something wrong with the network card? Please help, this is so frustrating!

WRT54G2 Cannot connect to Internet in Vista

I'm having WRT54G2 wireles router, but cannot connect to Internet when system is running Vista. I try on another system which is running XP is working fine. I have tried to turn off the Windows and anti virus firewall, but the resukt is still the same. I can see there is a list of available wireless network and can be connected with signal is excellent, but cannot connect to Internet.Wondering what should I do?

What exact error message you are getting while trying to connect the wireless network ?
Try to readjust the wireless settings on your router...Go to Linksys setup page...Under Wireless Tab..Change the channel to 11, If the SSID is linksys(default) then, change it to some unique name...and click on save settings...Go to the subtab "Advance Wireless Settings" under Wireless and change the Beacon Interval to 75, Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...
