I have a galaxy phone and a kindle fire. Both devices dont connect to the wifi. I had the kindle replaced and the issue remains. Galaxy connects and gets an IP but has no internet. Changed AP from Linksys to Netgear to Engenius. encryption is set to WPA2 AES. Any ideas as to why these android based devices wont connect to the wifi. This also happens at my job and friends house. dont know what there encryption is.

Sorry for the delay in responding. This was originally posted in an infrequently read area of the forums. I have moved it to the Android Lounge for the time being until we can get some more information.
First, please let us know exact model and Android version you are using on the phone. Since this seems to happen accross multiple devices, it would suspect it is something to do with your wireless setup, so if you could please let us know your router model as well and how you connect to the internet, it would go a long way to providing you some answers.

Try changing your password on your home network. You really shouldn't be having any problems.
Forever I had a Linksys router and just switched over to an Netgear N. Both ran WPA. I have a Nexus and a laptop connecting via wifi reliably. Same for my daughter's Kindle Fire, ipod touch and mytouch 4g slide.
Do any other devices have an issue with your wifi?
