I think I found reason of this problem:
This Wifi network is limited and it didn't give IP address to the phone.

I had the same problem with my nokia N9: "Connection failed. Can't get an IP address from the DHCP server"
My N9 can connect to many public Wifi networks except this limited Wifi network.
And I did as following:
1. Get WLAN configuration from my computer which can connect with this limited Wifi network to edit network on my N9.
2. Go to Nokia N9 and enter Setting.
3. Choose Internet connection/Edit networks
4. Choose network to edit.
5. Choose Advanced settings
6. Turn off Auto-retrieve IP address
7. Type IP address, subnet mask, default gateway I got from my computer.
Done and save Wifi profile.

Now I can connect my Nokia N9 to that Wifi Network.
I hope my experience can help you.
