    I had real trouble with my home wifi. It kept detecting the network as unsecured, then not connecting. Eventually the secured network popped up and i quickly connected, but it was in no way immediate. It finally connected, but after i went out and came back, it again took a while to connect. I'd say reset your router, check that other devices connect, and keep trying on the S3. good luck, its painful

    My old Android (3.2 HoneyComb) tablet didn't like TKIP and AES together as security options, had to change this for TKIP only to work.

    its the old superhub wifi issue mate

    192.168.0.1 in your browser
    username admin, password changeme

    select advanced settings, then wireless settings on top left, change channel to 11, 802.11n mode to 145Mbps, then hit apply

    no more temperamental wifi

    Violence and Lubrication is the solution to fixing everything, if it still doesn't work, you need more lubrication.
