Hello,

In phone i checked Wi-fi network settings.

There i can see 192.168.1.1 is the default gateway ip.

There is a difference between the gateway IP and the IP address of your device.

Since it works on your laptop, open up CMD and type

ipconfig

And let me see the output.

Guys I think the issue is due to default gateway .

 

Scenario is that I have a Wi-Max connection and I have used 2 router.

1st router dooesnt have a Wi-Fi port So i have used 2nd ADSL 2 router for Wi-Fi.

May be this is root cause Why I am not able to get Wi-Fi on my phone.

Hello,

Guys I think the issue is due to default gateway .

More or less; Your Android seems to have its wlan0 interface (wifi) with a IP address that is in use by your router!

Before anything else, I wanna fully confirm this so on your Android (which is connected to the wifi) go ahead and open terminal emulator and type:

ip addr show wlan0

This will confirm.

If I'm reading everything correctly, your phone has the same IP address as your laptop. This is a problem. Are you using DHCP on your router and/or do you have any IP addresses manually entered into either your laptop or phone?

I am using a Windows PC also in this network.I checked ip address of that system too.It says IP as 192.168.1.101(Preffered).

Also i haven't configured any IP manually..About DHCP I am not sure about it.

Try opening the command prompt on your PC and type the following:

ipconfig /release

ipconfig /renew

That should tell your PC to find a new IP from your router that is not in use by any other devices.

As a test you could try shutting that PC off and testing your phone to see if the issues go away. If they both have 192.168.1.100 you will have problems.

 

I tried using only my phone connected to that network,but still no luck. :(

      If you don't care to read what I said, then you prove my point. Maybe written media is beyond your attention span. Titles are not summaries my friend.

      Nobody asked... in fact, I said "I don't care about political leanings"

      TLDR. Here is a far better title (just a basic example): Windows 11 26H2 to allow disabling Web search results

      Restore will get my vote, only if to see if things are any different, doubt it though but Labour and Conservatives too out of touch and same thing over and over and over…, Lib Dem who?

      There is nothing wrong with this title. You have completely missed the plot when it comes to "clickbait." The issue was never that a title tries to entice you to click, that is how titles have worked for over 100 years. The issue is when the title subverts expectations, getting you to click expecting something that isn't there. The classic clickbait example is "Boyfriend caught cheating, what happens next will shock you," then what happened next is the girlfriend was upset...which is probably the least shocking outcome imaginable. If sounds like what you want is for the titles to be a collection of 10-word summaries that you can skim, get the just of the story, and only click if you want more details. That is not, never has been, and never will be what titles are. You can go all the way back to print newspapers during the great depression and see the same thing. The newspaper was locked in a vending machine, all you can see is the headline, you choose to put in 5¢ to buy the paper and read the rest if you want. Those headlines were written in a way to sell the paper, not just to provide a summery. Here are two actual headlines from that time, "Wall Street Lays an Egg," or "Stocks Hit Bottom?" Maybe you'd say something like "it was wrong then and it's still wrong now." Okay, fine opinion to have, but it isn't like Neowin is doing something unjurnalistic, they are just following the age-old standards for written media.
