The tablet does not connect to WiFi Router. Why won't my tablet connect to Wi-Fi

Good time everyone, for two whole days I did not write anything. And so today I will tell you why the wifi is connected on the tablet but there is no Internet. In view of the fact that many of the tablets used are based on the popular Android OS, I will talk specifically about solutions to problems with such devices.

The problem faced by lovers of tablet devices in the process of working with the wireless Internet is the display of the line "Obtaining an IP address". The operation of the gadget at this stage stops and is not restored in the future. There are actually a couple of methods for solving the above problem, one of them should definitely help.

  1. Change the name of the Wi-Fi network to any other, including only English letters.
  2. Reload the router (such a trivial method is often the most effective).
  3. Change the type of data encryption (in the same place as the name of the wireless network, you must change the type of protection to another).


To apply the entered settings, the modem needs to be rebooted.

Preparatory process

For today I have everything, I hope you now know why wifi is connected on the tablet and there is no Internet. I want to ask you about something else, if something doesn't work out for you - write about it in the comments. I will also not refuse if, as a token of gratitude, like this article. I wish everyone only positive emotions and good health.

In the modern world, mobile technologies are increasingly being used. Tablets with a variety of operating platforms have enjoyed tremendous success among users around the world. With the help of these devices, various tasks can be solved and, among other things, they are very convenient and transportable. Nevertheless, despite the fact that tablets are extremely in demand, many of their users, especially beginners, cannot figure out how to properly connect Wi-Fi on a tablet in order to use a good and high-speed Internet.

The Wi-Fi network currently does not surprise anyone, and a wireless connection module is installed in all modern devices. Wi-Fi can be found everywhere: at home, at work, in places of recreation, at train stations, metro and many other places. The access point is very easy to find.

Setting up Wi-Fi on your tablet

To connect your tablet via Wi-Fi to the Internet, you need to complete a list of simple operations:

  • First, you need to turn on Wi-Fi on the device - this can be done if there is a special widget that will be placed on the gadget's desktop (sometimes you can open widgets by swiping down the main screen). You can also activate the module in the settings: just click on "On" (On).
  • After the wireless connection is activated, a list of available connections will appear on the screen of the gadget.
  • Click on a suitable network.
  • If it has a password, then you need to enter it.

If all steps are correct and the password is entered correctly, the device will be connected to Wi-Fi.

Connecting your tablet to your home network


Before using your home Wi-Fi hotspot, you need to activate and configure it via a router:

  • Enter the following numbers in any Internet browser on your PC: 192.168.1. *. (The IP address of your router is indicated on the router itself or box)
  • After that, a window will appear where you need to specify the logins and the key to open access to the router.
  • If the password is unknown, then on the Internet you can find out the standard username / password for any router model.

All further operations for setting up the router will depend on what particular device is used to distribute the Internet via Wi-Fi.

  • You need to go to the router parameters and find the WLAN section (maybe Wireless Lan).
  • Here you need to put a checkmark next to Active Wireless LAN or activate it (set the value as Enable).
  • Determine what kind of protection the network will have (WPA2-PSK is best).
  • In the SSID column, you need to enter the name of the wireless access point.
  • Indicate the key below and confirm it, if necessary.
  • Save settings.

After the router has been set up, all that remains is to connect to the new wireless network.


Quite often, tablet owners are faced with the following difficulty: the tablet does not connect to Wi-Fi - the connection to the network continues indefinitely. This problem can be solved by the following:

  • The Wi-Fi network needs to be renamed (preferably in English letters). As practice shows, some gadgets do not want to connect to wireless networks, the name of which contains at least one Russian letter.
  • The problem might be with your router. Restart it.
  • The DHCP server may need to be enabled. To do this, go back to the router parameters (DHCP Setup) and check the Enable box.
  • The gadget may not work with a certain type of Wi-Fi network encryption. To change the type of protection, you need to go to the security settings and try to enter some value. For the new parameters to be active, you need to restart the router.
  • Another way is to enter the IP address and DNS server manually. To do this, open the connection settings on the device. They are located in a special window that appears when connecting to a Wi-Fi network. You should open the custom IP parameters, and specify your address in the following form: 192.168.1. ***. It is also necessary to fill in the data in the "Gateway" and "DNS" fields, which you need to get from your Internet provider.

Connecting to a Wi-Fi network in public places


Wi-Fi provides faster and better quality data transmission compared to the cellular network. Using a wireless network provides an opportunity to achieve significant savings (if there is no unlimited data plan). In addition, many tablets do not have 3G, so Wi-Fi in public areas is a must. Most networks are secure, so a password is required to connect.

How to connect a Wi-Fi tablet to a wireless network

  • The first step is to open the configuration of the device and go to the section of wireless connections.
  • You need to make sure that the Wi-Fi function on the tablet is activated. This means that the tablet device will actively search for available networks. If such a point is found, it will be shown exactly here indicating whether the network is password protected or has open access.
  • You need to touch the name of the network to which you will connect.


In the tablet settings, you can activate a function that will periodically notify the user about the presence of available networks in the current area. To connect to the network, you need to tap this notification. If it becomes necessary to deactivate the notification function, you can open the tablet device settings, the "Wi-Fi" section, and uncheck the box next to the "Notify when new networks are found."

If there is precise information that there should be wireless networks in the current area, but for some reason they are not displayed on the device, then you must turn off and then activate the Wi-Fi function. To connect to a password protected network, you need to know the access key. It is enough to enter it in the appropriate field and touch the "Finish" icon. To disconnect from the network, you need to touch and hold its name, and then select the "Delete" command.

Some points may be hidden and not displayed on the device. In this case, even if the function of notification about available networks is active, the access point will not be displayed. To connect to such a connection, you need to select the "Add" function in the Wi-Fi settings, and then specify the network name and password.

When entering the network name and passkey, be aware that they are case sensitive. It is necessary to enter this data very carefully, since the slightest mistake will prevent access to the wireless connection. The function of adding and connecting to an invisible network may not work on some gadgets. This is due to the lack of the required software, which must be preinstalled by the manufacturer of the gadget.

How to activate Wi-Fi without a router, even if there are no other wireless networks? In such a situation, you can resort to using other mobile devices, for example, a smartphone. You need to make it become an access point and distribute Wi-Fi itself. The required function is present in many devices as a standard parameter. If there is none, then you can install a third-party application, of which there are a lot.

Summarize

In most cases, connecting to Wi-Fi on your tablet is straightforward. It is enough to use the standard functions of the tablet device. If you still have any difficulties with how to connect Wi-Fi on your tablet, it is recommended that you carefully read the above instructions and tips. A wireless Internet connection is much more convenient and cost-effective compared to mobile networks. You can comfortably download movies, play online games, listen to music and watch videos online.

In this article, we will try to deal with the problem that appears after connecting the Android device to Wi-Fi. When Wi-Fi does not work on a smartphone or the same tablet. More precisely, the Internet does not work when connected via a wireless network. Very popular problems.

You connected your smartphone to your home Wi-Fi network, or at work, there is a connection, but the Internet does not work. Websites do not open in the browser, Google Play Store does not work, other applications that need Internet access also refuse to work. True, there are exceptions when sites in the browser, for example, open, but the Play Store does not work, and the video on YouTube does not play. As a rule, the Wi-Fi icon in such cases is gray, and not blue, as it should be. We will also talk about this.

When many people write that Wi-Fi does not work on a smartphone, I will enter exactly what Android connects to Wi-Fi, but does not load anything.

Android: Wi-Fi Internet does not work. Solving the problem on the smartphone

If you have a tablet, then these tips will also work.

1 First of all, you can try to turn off / on Wi-Fi on the device. Turn on / off airplane mode. Restart your smartphone. Sometimes it helps.

2 Checking proxy server settings. If a proxy server is enabled on your smartphone in the properties of your wireless network, then the internet won't work... You need to check, and if enabled, then disable manual proxy settings. Go to settings, where a list of Wi-Fi networks is displayed, and the network to which you are connected. Usually, you need to click on the desired network and hold. A menu will appear in which you need to select something like Change network... Further, most likely you will need to check the box next to the item Additionally... The proxy setting appears. It should be disabled. See screenshots, yours may be slightly different.

If it is "manually", then the Internet on the phone will not work.

3 Checking the date, time, and time zone settings. These are the parameters due to which the Play Store on Android most often does not work, gray wifi icon, and the Internet does not work in other programs.

Your phone or tablet should always have the correct date and time settings. And also, it is advised to use the 24-hour time format if you have it disabled. Be sure to check these settings on your device. You can set the automatic setting.

After correct setup, Play Store starts working. This is verified.

4 There is such an application - "Freedom". If you have it installed, then in the application itself you need to click Stop... And if you deleted it, then install it back, go to the application, click Stop and then you can delete it. I myself did not come across this, and did not check it. But, many write that it helps. The internet starts working.

5 Setting up automatic IP acquisition. When there is an IP problem, Android usually doesn't connect to Wi-Fi at all. But it doesn't hurt to check.

Open the Wi-Fi settings on the device and go to the properties of your network (as I showed above)... By checking the box next to Advanced (you may not need to do this), you will see the item IPv4 settings, or something like that. There should be an automatic IP acquisition - DHCP.

6 I saw reviews, which helps many setting static DNS addresses... This method helps in cases when you have a gray Wi-Fi icon instead of a blue one on your smartphone or tablet, and the Market does not work. Also, not all sites may open.

Go to the properties of the desired Wi-Fi network, as I showed above. Check the box Advanced (if it is needed) and find the item IPv4 settings (yours may be slightly different)... You need to select an item Manually, and find fields DNS1and DNS2... Write the following addresses in them:

DNS can be changed in the settings of the router, if it makes it easier for you.

7 Can still be done hard reset of your Android device... If you are not too lazy to configure it again, install applications, etc. But, if all else fails, then you need to reset it, this can solve the problem with the Internet.

8 Update. In the comments, they shared some unusual tips that helped get rid of the problem with Wi-Fi on Android. The solution is really very strange, but you can try.

You need to select in the phone settings as the main memory built-in phone memory, not an SD card. I can't tell you exactly where this can be done on your smartphone. Maybe you don't have such a function at all. But look somewhere in the settings, in the "Memory" section.

We change the settings of the router if the Internet does not work on the smartphone (tablet)

Let me remind you again that the Internet from your router should work on other devices. If it does not work at all, on any device, then you need to configure the router. Android has nothing to do with it. Basically, the tips that I will write below help in cases where the smartphone does not see the Wi-Fi network at all, or does not connect to it. By the way, before setting it up, you can just try to reboot the router.

1 Try changing the channel in your router settings. Very often, it is because of the channel that problems with connecting to Wi-Fi appear. There is a detailed article on this topic:. You may not even look for a free channel (this is a long time), but simply set some kind of static one, for example - 6. In the article following the link, I showed how to change the channel on different routers.

2 On the same page where you can change the channel, you can usually change the region. These settings are usually located on the page with the Wi-Fi network settings. Set your region in settings.

3 Here you can also try to change the operating mode of the wireless network. These settings are available on any router. You can try different options. For example, put n only.

Here you already need to experiment. Remember to save your settings and reboot your router.

Wi-Fi wireless technology has gained wide popularity for a long time, so almost every smartphone or tablet can connect to such a network. This is very convenient, since you just need to find the desired access point, enter the password and use the Internet. This article will discuss what to do if Lenovo tablet does not connect to Wi-Fi.

Description of the problem

When connecting an Android device to a Wi-Fi network, the message “Saved, WPA / WPA2 Security” usually appears. In some cases, even with this notification, there is no Internet connection on the tablet and it is necessary to somehow solve the problem. We will talk about this below.

Why isn't Wi-Fi working?

If your browser does not open web pages after connecting your tablet to the hotspot, there are several steps you need to take to try and fix the problem. The problem can be either in the wrong settings or in the router itself.

Solutions

Below are the main methods that should help solve the problem. Let's get straight to the point.

If a Lenovo tablet or phone successfully connects to Wi-Fi and a corresponding notification appears on the screen, then you can try to restart the router. Sometimes after that, pages in the browser start to open, which means everything works correctly.

Wrong password

Everything is simple here. If, when connecting to the access point, the message "Incorrect password", etc. appears, then the entered combination is not correct. If the password is entered correctly, then you need to use one of the solutions described below.

An error in Wi-Fi operation often occurs due to a wrong region in the settings. To change the region, you need to go to the device web interface. If you do not know how to open the settings of the router, then read the instructions (it is usually located in the packing box of the router).

Let's consider the process of changing the region using the example of a router from the manufacturer TP-Link. You need to open the "Wireless mode" tab and select the required country in the "Region" item. Do not forget to confirm the saving of the new settings with the dedicated button.

Wi-Fi network operation mode

The router may operate in a mode that is not supported on Lenovo gadgets. There are 3 modes in total: b / g / n. The main difference is the speed of sending data. B is the slowest mode, g is the medium, n is the fastest mode.

Changing the operating mode can solve the wi-fi problem. After changing the settings, you need to restart the router and Wi-Fi on the tablet.

Tablet does not see Wi-Fi

It may well be that the router is turned on and working properly, but the phone or tablet does not see the access point. In this case, you need to check the settings - this is one of the main reasons for the incorrect operation of Wi-Fi. You may need to change the operating mode or channel of the router.

Outcome

This article describes the most effective ways to solve the problem of not working Wi-Fi on Lenovo devices. If you know others - write in the comments.
