If the boot-time connection attempt fails, Android will consider that there is no Internet connectivity.
To fix this, unset your proxy and reboot the device.
To avoid this problem in the future, unset your proxy before stopping the device.
For more information about Genymotion and proxies, refer to How to connect a virtual device to a proxy?
You are using quick boot (Genymotion Desktop - QEMU only)
This bug can occur after a quick boot.
Try launching the device with a cold boot instead.
See Genymotion Desktop on-line documentation.
You are in China
If you are in China, Wifi will probably be disabled when you start your device.
Genymotion devices try to connect to google.com at boot to verify the Internet connection, but due to restrictions in China, this test fails and the device thinks that Internet is not connected.
Genymotion Desktop
To solve this problem, you can either use a VPN on your host computer and connect to a non-Chinese network, or use the following method:
Open a terminal and run the following ADB commands:
adb shell settings put global captive_portal_http_url https://www.google.cn/generate_204
adb shell settings put global captive_portal_https_url https://www.google.cn/generate_204
adb shell settings put global ntp_server 1.hk.pool.ntp.org
For more information about ADB usage with Genymotion, please refer to Genymotion Desktop documentation.
Reboot the device.
Wifi should then be available.
