Fixing Samsung Galaxy I9000 Wi-Fi Connectivity Issues

Google Android powered Samsung Galaxy I 9000 cellphone is receiving some great reviews and sales, but every phone has their own issues and Samsung Galaxy I 9000 has quite some too. One of the most annoying issue with this cellphone is connectivity with Wi-Fi networks, strangely the phone refuses to use Wi-Fi with full-signal strength most of the times as shown below.

After, trying and failing every single solution shared on android forums I tried using manual settings for Wi-Fi and it worked, a detailed how-to follows after the jump.
To get Wi-Fi fixed on your Samsung Galaxy I 9000 follow the instructions detailed below :
  1. Make sure Wi-Fi is ON and Navigate to Settings -> Wireless and Network -> Wi-Fi Settings, now click the left-side context-menu button on your phone to bring-up Advanced option and click it.
  2. Now to get things working we will need to make cellphone use a static IP address for Wi-Fi, check theUse Static IP option and proceed with entering values manually.
  3. If you are not sure what values to use take a look at your network-adapter status on computer, here are my settings (should works on most default router setups).
  4. Enter all values and your screen should now look like the one below.
  5. Now go back to your Wi-Fi settings page and click your access-point name and it should show you the manually entered IP value.
  6. Your Wi-Fi issues should be now over.
