Help Lg thrill 4g wifi issues

[snowboarder318]

So I made the switch to at&t three days ago and since I came home I've tried to use the wifi on my phone, it connects to the router but doesn't access the internet, my wife got the same phone and the exact same thing happens. Connects to the router, but wont load webpages. So to test my router I pull out my sprint intercept login to the wifi router, pull up the browser and it works perfectly. So it seems like it is a thrill issue...Anyone have any ideas?

So strange for me. All the laptops work in the house also, tried an "Open" router setting, then switched it back to secured. I got the wnr2000 net gear router. It's just weird to me that my other 'droid phone works flawlessly on wifi and the thrill doesn't. Just super bummed at the moment hoping someone has some ideas for me to try!

Thanks

I think I had the same problem with wnr1000 router. What fixed it for me was changing the wireless mode in the router settings ( wireless settings -> mode: from "up to 150 Mbps" to "up to 54 Mbps" ) .. not an ideal solution but at least it works now.

This would happen to my last android phone. Try to longpress on your network and forget about it. Then try connecting again. If all else fails save your important stuff on the SD card and perform a hard reset. That'll usually works. At least it did for my issue (twice).

I bought my phone 2 days ago. Started having this problem. It wasn't the router at all. I tried turning off the wifi and back on with no success. Right before I got it working, I had switched to Airplane mode and then turned airplane mode off. I hope it works for you.

Restarting the phone may be another idea.

My husband and I also both bought the LG Thrill and are having an issue with wifi connectivity. In the beginning it only seemed to be an issue if both of us were using the wifi, now it intermittently freezes and looses the connection. I think we both are going to exchange our phones and try something else, too many poa things already.
I'm having a major issue with my screen blinking and calls cutting in and out (defective unit, possibly).

D-Link router, don't know much more than that as that is my husband's area of expertise.

OK so having this new LG Thrill is pretty awesome,I've had this for less than a week, been having issues with my wifi not connecting, searched around and everyone having issues, I have fixed the problem. I have a Belkin N150 router and its normally not what I use. Even the salesman couldn't figure out why their wifi wasn't working in the store with this device.

I managed to change my wifi channel settings, default was set to 11, changed to channel 6, and extension *if router has it* channel 10 or 2, also I turned on protected mode as this deals with certain apps needing to use port80 for browsing and voip. and Viola I'm posting this thread on wifi with no issues and browsed more pages before I powered. Hope this solves ur issues, oh an don't change your bandwidth to 54MBps if its higher, you will lose the upload and download speed of your pages. Hope this helps everyone, now back to watching Netflix on my Thrill
