Root Wifi location

Well, my friend smacked my phone out of my hand not to long ago, and I just noticed that my wifi don't work. I can connect, see good strength, but when I try to do browse the web, I get the "page cannot be displayed ".
Basically what I'm getting at is, where is the wifi receptor on the phone? Could I do anything to fix it without buying (or him buying) a new phone.

Woot! Go triumph!

And Lions!

Might still be under warranty. Call VM and tell them it quit working?
 
Well, here's the problem with warranty claim... there's about 3/4" of the plastic missing. To the right of the search button.
 
Just don't tell them about the damage... they'll send you a return envelope... put the phone in it and then tear the corner of the envelope where the damage is ... blame it on the mail man

This would be considered insurance fraud or something along those lines and i would suggest it or even mention it aloud lol


Are you trying to connect to ur wifi, or a wifi that you know the password 2, only saying that cause if your trying to jump on someone elses wifi there are ways where itll say your connected cause you are but it doesnt give you internet, no data
 
I have the correct password for the wifi. My friends computer works fine with it, but not my phone. Prior to my phone being smacked, the widow worked just fine on the network.

So you say the phone was connected to your friend's WiFi? The reason I ask is my routers have a filter for MAC addresses. You can connect, but you won't have access.

Also, try it over 3g and another hot spot.
