    Wifi scanning problem?

    I am having trouble accessing wifi at my home and elsewhere. I have an almost brand new router and am sitting right next to it. I thought I would look at the wifi settings to see if I could tell what the problem is. My Razr Maxx scans for wifi for a split second and then stops and starts scanning again every 10 seconds. Any thoughts? By the way, I received and installed the OTA update this morning. Thanks!

    I'm sorry that I didn't think to show what was wrong in my router settings. The "Enable SSID Broadcast" was unchecked. Wifi scanning problem?-wireless-settings.jpg

    Ah, that would do it. Your Razr couldn't see the network since it wasn't being broadcast. Thanks for sharing.
