My JASJAR WIFI signal reception I notice is weak; I am saying this for 2 reasons:
One, even JASJAR is so close to the access point signal quality indicator barely reaches 75%.
The other, with my old iPAQ and form the same position I can detect the signal but not with my JASJAR.
What seems to be the problem and is there any way that can improve the signal detection in JASJAR.
Interestingly enough I've found the O2 Exec WiFi reception to be fine, certainly better than the new iBook. The only problem I have with it is the massive battery drain on WiFi use.
I'm with page3.. compares to my IIs, the Exec is amazing.. I get great reception in area where my old IIs can't even connect.
Hi,
I agree with Zamil. My XDA Exec can't pick up the WiFi signal where my old XDA 2i can The signal strength seems to be a lot weaker.
I assume you have played with the Wifi Power in the Settings, Connections, WirelessLAN, Settings - if not, try setting to Max Strength - it will chew up your battery power though.
... with my old iPAQ and from the same position I can detect the signal but not with my JASJAR.

I have the same experience
with the JASJAR when I loose the connection in some places, the iPaq 4350 it's still able to detect signal and connect the internet.
I using the lastest ROM updates WWE_11353_137_10301.

when i try to connect to a wireless it is disconnecting nearly on every 10-15 seconds. i have tried it at office, at home even next to the adsl modem but same problem everywhere everytime.
what can be the problem ?
i use Qtek S200 with 2.20.7.34 original prophet rom.
I have the same problem on my S200: connection does not last longer than 30-40 s. I have solved this partially by increasing the sensitivity on the Wi-FI settings panel (even if the signal strength is already high, this settings reduces the number of disconnections on my prophet).
Maybe a firmware upgrade will help?
Is there any registry tweak or driver hack I can do to my 8525 to power more power in the WiFi broadcast? I have a laptop that works perfectly well in my house yet my phone always loose its established connection within minutes because of its weak transmission or doesnt establish one at all. I pretty sure its the 8525 not returning the hand shake, etc. I went ahead and made sure wifi battery usage was set to performance over battery life but made no diffrence. Anyway to increase the broadcast dB?
hi guys, just firstly let me say this is the best PDA forum out there.
to my query, my WI-FI on my Atom works no problem but i noticed the signal may be weak on it?
I have a Nokia N80 and with the Atom Wi-Fi in the same spot the Nokia seems to pick up Wi-Fi signal and the Atom no. IM thinking maybe the Nokia seems to have a better/stronger/ or improved Wi-Fi receiver?
Does anyone know how to improve signal strength on the Wi-Fi on the Atom?
me too..
i'm experiencing the same problem too with my Atom exec..but before i can still use my wifi, now i can't..it hardly detect any signals..it always got disconnection because of the weak signals...i don't know why this happens, i can use my WIFI before, but today, i can't.. compared to my friends N92, he can detect the signal while i canot..i need help why did it happened..i can use the WLAN before and i don't have a problem with the power strength..but now, it's WIFI is almost useless.. i cant even have a decent connection.. i tried hard reset, but still, didn't help..what else can i do? does OS upgrade can help me??? by the way, im using the latest WM5 from O2..tnx guys..need help..
need help..
pls help guys..pls help..save my atom exec pls..
Hi all,
I'm facing a weird WiFi problem which seems to be different from the ones that have been discussed before and referenced in the FAQ.
Specifically, when I just turn the WiFi on, I can connect to the network (WPA2-TKIP secured), authenticate and browse Web sites etc. There are no problems with the proxy, unavailability of WAP2 in the drop-down box - within first minute or two after turning the WiFi on, everything works as expected.
Hovewer, the signal strength is unstable, and once the signal dies a couple of times, the 8525 freezes: the backlight instantly goes off even if the device is AC-powered, and the device stops responding to anything except Soft Reset.
It should also be mentioned that my WiFi is configured for best performance, not the battery saving mode.
I was suspecting it was a hardware problem, so I hooked up my 8525 to my notebook over WiFi at home, using WEP security. I was hoping that if it was for the broken WiFi hardware, I'd observe the same freezing effect. Still, the WiFi worked just normally. I must admit I didn't intentionally emulate the loss of signal (should test it as well), but with nominal signal strength there were no problems at all!
So does anyone have an idea what could be the reason of 8525 freezing after loosing the WiFi connection? I know there are issues when WiFi is left turned on in standby mode, but, as I've said, in my case the 8525 freezes even if it's on AC power and is being actively used. I've also noticed that sliding the 8525 to access the keyboard somehow increases the probability of freezing, especially when the device is on battery power.
My OS ROM is wm6premium.v2, perhaps there are known WiFi problems with this ROM? Also, the Phone is HardSPL'd and SIM/CID unlocked. Please help, as except for this weird WiFi problem, I'm totally satisfied with my 8525.
First, I apologize if this question has been covered before. I've searched extensively but sometimes I miss the obvious.
I'm trying to find a way to have my phone automatically disconnect itself from my router when the signal is weak without turning off the wifi radio. I've found apps that automatically turn off the radio when the signal is weak, then intermittently turn it back on to see if the signal has improved, but this isn't exactly what I'm looking for.
There are certain areas in my house (and backyard) where my phone still sees the router, but the signal is so poor the 3G is actually (significantly) faster. But Android doesn't switch you over to 3G until the wifi signal is actually lost.
I know if you leave the range of your router but leave the radio on, the 3G takes over automatically and the wifi radio runs in the background, silently searching for a connection. So is there any way to use this functionality to tell your phone to disconnect the wifi automatically if the signal is incredibly weak (but still connected)?
My first thought was to set up a Tasker profile of some kind, but I haven't had any luck. Any suggestions?
Unfortunately connecting/disconnecting wifi using Tasker is not possible.
when I owed droid X I had the same issue, I flashed custom baseband and it helped
