Help 2.3.6 Wifi Isusses

[Nelatherion]

Alright, my Nexus S does not seem to be connecting to wifi properly. I am based in the UK but am in Singapore at the moment so I am not turning on Data Roaming because I cant afford a 10 Billion dollar roaming bill.

Anyway, when I first arrived my phone connected to the Wifi perfectly and began to transfer data (got onto Facebook and what not) and the little Wifi symbol was full bars and green.

I have an old iPhone I use with a local SIM card when I am out and about in order to be a cheapo, but I came back to find my Nexus S not connecting to the wifi. Normally if my phone is on sleep it takes a few seconds for the Wifi to switch itself on and go from White to Green. Except it wont go from white to green, it stays as White meaning I have no access to the internet on my phone.

Model Number: Nexus S
Android Version: 2.3.6
Baseband Version: I9023XXF1
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-gf563ef
android-build@apa28 #1
Build Number:GRK39F
Mobile Carrier: Vodafone UK


Any suggestions how to fix this?

Thanks in advance

turn off your wifi
reboot

I have tried that but I still have no change, the Wifi bar is still white and no connection can be established.

 

[megadude]

have you tried other hotspots as well?

 

[Nelatherion]

No, my access to those is limited the closest chance to that might be when I go to Thailand in a few days but so far all other Phones in the house, (iPhone 4, Blackberry and an LG) connect fine. I will try to find another hotspot to connect to and see how that goes. But it may take a few days

airports, universities and cafe-nets usually have WiFi hotspots. you can try those places.
