I got the WPA2 working. But it drop connection and acts badly.
Strange thing is when I stand and holdl the phone from the antenna I get 80% signal quality as best, If I move away a few steps I get 20% quality
I only tested with WPA2-PSK
How is the quality of your WLAN connections ?
anyone got any wlan input on this topic ?
i get one bar at my school WLAN network (using securew2 to get past all the security), but the speed is great b/c it's a very fast network. so even if your signal is low, you should still get good speed depending on network.
One thing I've observed in phone right after i bought 'em is the WLAN reception. as for the X1 it's just okay. of course signals also depends on how far the range of the hotspot's coverage is but I've tested my devices on a single WIFI router at home and here are the results on "balanced" setting:
1. X1 just about 13 meters from the router is almost dead reception.
2. XDA Zinc is about the same position signal dies.
3. XDA IIi (HTC Alpine) at 15 meters still has a weak signal -> this one impressed me much.
4. HTC Prophet just 3 meters away goes dead. -> this is far worst than I imagined.
5. Nokia N91 about 10 meters still has a weak signal
6. Nintendo DS about 10 meters still has a weak signal.
7. MSI Laptop S420 18 meters away still can watch youtube. ( well of course this is way different. )
And I have all these devices with me.
what that test done with open wlan or WPA2 as I talked out ?
hi
i have an htc touch hd wm 6.1 professional but i see that the wifi reception is verry weak and my router is in the same room even if i put it on best performance it s always weak signal is their any solution for that
thanks
The ARC seem to have really bad receptions. I only have connection in the house, but in the garden it cannot connect to my wifi, signal is too low.
However, my HTC desire still have a good connection within 5-10 meters in the garden.
The Arc has connection in the house but signal is also low and not very good.
Anybody the same problem?
I try to 10-11 meter and connection is good......your access point is Wi FI what ????
No problems here works really great and fast
Indeed I think arc is better.quickest time to connect.better signal

Did you compare your nexus 1 with your ARC and which one does lost signal first when you walk as far as possible from the access point?
I have a wifi n router and I had similar problems with my defy. Although it was connected the signal strength reported as low. Yet it was still connected out in the garden at the same range as my laptop
it seems mines purely graphical, the connection is solid even though it says its poor

That's the difference, my phone loses the signal completely when i am in the garden and it switches over to 3g.
No problems here either.
No problem with my Wifi... Signal strength is same as i had on my X10 & Desire
Signal power is lower on Arc than on X10 in my case.
Wifi connectivity is also wierd with my 2 Arcs as well. I say wierd because I suspect it is more than just a signal strength problem.
The Arc definitely has poorer reception strength than my Desire HD. At the same location, my DHD can connect faster, at a higher speed (>72mbps vs max 54mbps on Arc), and much more stable than the Arc.
In fact, Arc's network connections frequently hang/drops especially when I have an Automatic push Exchange account and/or Enabled wireless location services. When it happens, all apps needed network connectivity will respond with error.
But this happens both with 3G and Wifi........
I have also heard that if one downgrade the wifi to network G only, Arc performs much better. Seems to be a serious issue with the arc's wifi.
The problem with my WiFi is the same, HTC Desire signal strength is much more better, then the ARC . The router is a Linksys WRT54GL .
I must say my hero has better wifi than the arc when testing from my garden the arc loses signal whilst the hero holds it

I'have the same....and before, i had an HTC DESIRE HD....I hope dev will found a solution....perhaps with CYANOGENMOD...if it come on the Arc !

I had the same problem with wifi at first. I was losing data while my wifi clearly indicate reception. It was worse on heavy data like youtube. I discover that my modem had problem keeping my arc connected while changing from A to N. Changed the setting to A and B/G only and now everything is perfect !!

Yup I have the same problem with my ARC tried to optimise settings on my router but still no joy my SE arc only connects to wi-fi in the room where my router is where as all other mobile devices works fine in every corner of my apartment .
i can't connect to the wifi in my workplace, well it does connect but drops frequently, and when it is connected its a very low signal. Never had this problem on my Nokia n900/X8/Hero/X1/Samsung Jet etc etc. Strange.
how did you change the wifi to only a/b/g i cannot seem to find it in the settings
Hi,
I have huge issues on my TF with Wi-Fi, I am really despaired with it. Signal strength is weak even if I am standing very close to my router - on default wi-fi icon it shows 2 sections of 3 and Wi-Fi Analyzer says signal is -55db. Few steps away it drops to -63db. And If i decide to go to another room signal stays around -66db and connection drops in and out like hell, sometimes it just can't connect at all for minute or so.
First thing I was thinking it's my router transmitter is week - it was abit old, but I never heard problems with it before. So I bought new router 300mbs N router with 3 antennas and very good signal. This not helped at all. Signal strength shown by Wi-Fi Analyzer remains pretty same with all other problems.
I've tried various wireless settings - b/g/n only, various channels, security on/off etc, I've tried various ROMs - not much difference. I am beginning to think there's some hardware malfunction on my TF but still hoping I missed something. May it be that TF is performing badly with this exact router? My Nokia Symbian phone shows excellent signal strength overall whole flat and I don't have any disconnects sitting in farthest corner.
Any advise welcome. Thanks
i have a Samsung galaxy tablet (the original). using wifi analyzer, the transformer consistently has a 10 dBm lower signal level than the galaxy.
I hadn't compared the signal level with my Incredible, but looking at it side by side also shows the 10 dBm lower signal...

Please do a search for wifi issues.loads of threads have covered this topic before
Hai..
My device cannot detect wifi signal when far from router. If i put my device next to the router, wifi signal strong. I'm currently on Pixel Experience rom, but also happen in other rom that i installed. My RSSI show -127..is it good or bad?
Thanks in advance
