WIFI Issue with Android 2.2 epad 7" WMT2.1.2

[venomancer1980]

Hello to all I am a newbie and I hope someone can help. I bought a brandnew MID/epad 7" that comes with Android 2.2 and WMT2.1.2 installed. I tested the wifi capabilities and found that it does not connect to almost all wifi hotspots I tried it on. There was one time that it successfully connected and I was able to browse for about 5 minutes and then it got disconnected and never connected again to the same hotspot it connected to . All the available hotspots are detected and has strong signal, however I am unsuccessful to connect my device to any. It just say that its obtaining ip address.....then Disconnect.. Or obtaining ip address...then unsuccessful . I googled my issue and found that this is an issue to many epad 7" with the same android os and build that I have. Would a firmware upgrade solve this issue? Also I would like to ask members here with the Android 1.6 installed, if they experience the same issue? Thanks in advance.

I also had the same problem with all 5 android tab green led vibrating on start.
Connected but after some minutes/seconds it becomes unable to access data, even the wifi status still connected.

Have the very same Wifi problem. Bought a new 7" tablet a few day's ago.
Did anyone found a solution ?

First, Try a factory reset.

Second, Try to flash the firmware to something higher.

Third, Reset again.

You may have an operational wifi tablet after all of that.

Done all that... have flashed 2 different firmwares... problem is still there.
The tablet sees my wifi-router and connects, gets IP-address and... disconnects. Or even at less then 1 meter from router tablet says... out of range.

Ok then we have narrowed it down to a hardware problem. The best bet would be to return it and get a better tablet.

Unless you feel like opening it and replacing the NIC
