Some of you already got their problem solved. Here are some more guide for the newbies.
Changing the Android WiFi IP address is the same as on PC.
IPv4 address: 192.168.0.XXX / 192.168.1.XXX - This is your device IP. The XXX are numbers that you can personally choose from 0-255. Make sure this IP address is not the same as other device in the same network. Otherwise you will get IP conflict.
Gateway: 192.168.0.1 / 192.168.1.1
- This is the router IP address. Common IP address used for router are as shown above.
Network prefix length: 24
- This is the Subnet mask. Use 24 as default.
DNS 1: 8.8.8.8
- Just like in PC, this is the Preferred DNS server address. 8.8.8.8 is the common Google DNS. You can change this and use your ISP DNS if you know the address.
DNS 2: 8.8.4.4
- This is the Alternate DNS server address. 8.8.4.4 is the common alternate Google DNS address. You can also change this and use you ISP DNS.
Note: Tutorial here are based on common IP address used on a router. If you are trying to connect to public WiFi and this tutorial doesn't work, it means the router use other IP address. Please contact the WiFi admin there for help instead.
