SOURCE: wireless internet access

A wireless 802.11b LAN adapter is included in you tablet, activate it thru Control Panel / Wireless. Unfortunately this is the first generation standard and as such is extremely slow, has very limited range and is no longer supported by a lot of the newer generation devices/hotpoints.

Try this and see if this helps. Go into your network settings and press the little blue button to the right to see the network options you should see it already has a dns server and ip adress. Where it says auto join turn this off. Now see if you are able to connect. hope this helps kidromulous

SOURCE: I can't get wi-fi connectiion

Welcome to Fixya

First, make sure that WiFi is enabled on the Cruz Reader. From the Home Screen, select Wi-Fi Settings and ensure that both Wi-Fi and Network Notification are enabled with green check marks. After your unit search for network, your Wi-Fi networks list should populate. If you need to rescan, tap Menu> then tap Scan.Detected networks will appear with a SSID to the left, a status line beneath the SSID, a signal strength icon to the right. Those that are secure will also feature a padlock. Tap the network you wish to connect to, then click Connect. If a password is required, tap the text field for the popup keyboard. If you need to configure a connection manually, choose Add Wi-Fi Network> enter your router's SSID> select security type if any and enter password> and Save. Once the Cruz has successfully connected to any SSID, it is saved. When that SSID is no longer available, it is listed in the Wi-Fi networks list as "Not in range, remembered" in the status line.

Thank you for using Fixya!

SOURCE: My ACER tablet (ICONIA

Hi,
Welcome to Fixya. I would like to know if the wifi works before? If the laptop was able to detect and connect to a wireless signal and the Iconia won't you can check the warranty of the Iconia and call acer and they will be able to replace the unit. This is a common issue with Iconia that some of the device has a hardware wifi defect. You can also refer to the link below and see what happen with their Iconia and was able to talk to acer for a replacement.

Why will my wifi not turn on?

Hi Michelle, try turning your tablet off then on.... If still no Wi-Fi and you're trying to connect to your home Wi-Fi The password is on the back of the modem in the house, Write it down then go into your phone/tablet settings and tap "CONNECTIONS", Then tap on Wi-Fi and make sure it's switched on(should be a button there), Once switched on it should start scanning automatically for networks, but if not then there's a scan button there somewhere. When it finds the modem just tap on it and a small window opens for the password, Type in the pass word tap ok and you're connected... Bellow is a link to a short youtube video explaining pretty much the same thing I said..... I hope this helps..., CHEERS..

Unable to get internet

You can separate the troubleshooting into parts. Go to a place having a wi-fi internet hot-spot, like Starbucks or Gloria Jeans'. Assuming you are in the USA:

http://www.wififreespot.com/

Get a coffee and turn your tablet wi-fi on. From

http://www.manualslib.com/manual/742236/Rca-Rct6272w23.html?page=11#manual

1. Go to Settings > WIRELESS & NETWORKS > Wi-Fi, and slide the Wi-Fi switch to the ON position.
2. The device will scan Wi-Fi networks automatically and display the available names.
• If the device finds a network that you connected to previously, it will connect to it automatically.
3. Tap a network name to connect to it. Tap 'Agree to conditions' if necessary.

You should then be able to go to a webpage. Once you get this bit working, you can turn to your home internet.

You need of course an account with an ISP, who will probably supply you with a gateway (modem/router). If you only have a modem (connection box to the ISP) that does not have a wi-fi capability, you will need to get a router (wi-fi broadcaster). These can be quite small and neat.

http://phandroid.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/OnHub-by-ASUS-Screen-Shot-2015-10-27-at-5.29.02-PM.png

For assistance on this contact your ISP tech help line, since some of the advice is peculiar to the equipment they use.

Connect the router (if you needed to get one) to the modem with an ethernet cable

http://cdn2.pcadvisor.co.uk/cmsdata/features/3502678/ethernet-cable.jpg

and follow the setup instructions that came with it. Then do the same as in the cafe wi-fi hot spot. It should work.

I have a net rca tablet. It works fine except it won't go on wifi. I did exactly what I was suppose to do, and it won't connect.

Hi
I presume that the tablet detects a Wi-Fi network,since you say it won't go on to it.
A couple of points here - firstly this tablet will not go onto mobile broadband as there is no mention of a SIM card capability in the manual, which can be obtained in pdf format here:
http://www.rcatablets.com/sites/default/files/RCT6203W46%20IB_English.pdf
OK - one point down, so now we are talking about wireless access points. If the tablet doesn't detect an access point, it obviously won't connect. If it can detect an access point, then you need the access code to join that particular network. When you tap on the access point SSID (identification), it should ask for a wireless key which you must enter in order to access the Wi-Fi network and get on line.
Hope this is helpful, if so would you please register that with Fixya
Cheers

I have a RCA tablet rct6272w23 and I can't connect to internet what should I do?

Hi
To connect to the Internet with a tablet, you need to have either a SIM card with mobile access (3g or 4g) or a Wifi card in the tablet and access to a Wifi Hotspot. I downloaded the manual for your tablet here:
http://www.rcatablets.com/sites/default/files/CT9272W23%20IB%20English.pdf
and looking through it the first option does not exist for you as there is no facility for a SIM card.
Therefore you need to access a Wifi hotspot - somewhere. It could be your home router, a cafe, a railway station or a multitude of places. In order to access the Internet this way you must follow this procedure:
1. Go to Settings > WIRELESS & NETWORKS > Wi-Fi, and slide the Wi-Fi switch to the ON position.
2. The device will scan Wi-Fi networks automatically and display the available names.
• If the device finds a network that you connected to previously, it will connect to it automatically.
3. Tap a network name to connect to it, and enter a password if necessary.
4. Alternatively, if your Wi-Fi router supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup, tap the WPS icon at the top of the screen, and then press the WPS button on your router.
5. If your network does not broadcast its SSID, tap the Plus icon + at the top of the screen, and enter the Network SSID (name) of the network. If necessary, enter security or other network confi guration details.
In public places you may need to pay to get the necessary access password.
Hope this clears things up for you
