Slow WIFI connection...

How come I get so slow speeds when copying a file over WIFI from my desktop computer? I get about 420kb/s and when I check the WIFI connection the signal quality is 70% or higher and connected at Tx 54Mbps / Rx 48Mbps.. Shouldn't I get something like a few Mb/s with that connection??
Using Resco Explorer to access shared folder on desktop computer and copy files btw...

Is it set for best battery? If it is, that's the problem.

No.. Best performance...
Any idea why its only giving me 450ish Kb/s? What SHOULD I be getting with 54Mbps?
The WIFI router is a Zyxel P-320W btw.. It supports 802.11b/g..

if you read specification of your phone you should know this, taken from htc homepage
Up to 7.2 Mbps download speed
Up to 2 Mbps upload speed
so i dont think it matters if you got 54/48Mbps
this is my guess to your issue
someone right me if im wrong here..

Damn.. Thats slow.. Can't even watch XViD's over WIFI..

you might want to enable wireless N through either BSB Tweaks or
Tboy2000's thread...it might help?

7.2 Mbps = HSDPA, 2 Mbps = HSUPA
NOT WiFi

So what is the supported WIFI speeds on the HD2? 802.11b/g is supposed to be alot faster than the ~5 mbits I seem to be getting Or is the network(WIFI/HSDPA etc) controller limited to 7.2mbps be it WIFI or through 3G?

Well, those 7.2mbps and 2.0mbps are probably not wireless specifications as they stand for HSDPA connection. Wireless speeds are specified by 802.11 standards, e.g. 802.11a supports up to 2mbps bandwidth, 802.11b up top 11mbps and 802.11g 54mbps. so, these should be the speedlimits for HD2. I have seen that it is possible to enable 802.11n for HD2 but i havent tryed it out yet as I have difficulties using wireless with my HD2 even with the slow speeds.
no matter where I try to use wifi, it works for ~30secs and after that the phone can't find any wireless networks, sometimes even hangs. After waiting for about 1 minute, it finds wifi again and same scenario happens again and again. It hasn't worked right from the moment I took it out of the box. should return it probably but before that, maybe someone has had same problem and knows what the reason is for that?

WiFi Problems

[Q] Do you have speed problems with Wifi? (N-band)
I have wifi N router and set to N only. I have two laptop both wifi N capable. When I transfer file usung file sharing betwen two laptop I m getting speed abt 3Mb/s but when i transfer file between laptop and SGS I only get speed of 300 Kb/s. SGS support wifi N standerd then why it so. Well I use ES file explorer to access file in my laptop over Wi- Fi.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

It's a mobile device, they have lower throughput and probably only 1 antenna (most 802.11n devices have 3). There are a lot of factors, but basically, all that's important is that it supports the 802.11n protocol. Optimisation may lead to faster speed boosts over time though.
Network traffic might also be set to a low priority to help ensure the phone runs reliably for other tasks, but I have no idea why exactly it's slower exactly.

I get 1.5mbs from my nas and wireless n network
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

i get 19.5mb downlaoding speed
and 4.3mb uplaoding speed
on my wi-fi
my connection 500/500mb

I m talking abt internet speed. I m asking abt file transfer speed betn my SGS and laptop
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

87 Mbps according to mine
i'll grab a screen shot when i get back home

87 seems too much I only get 25 while copy file on hard drive it self
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

that's actually low for me, but is better than nothing
my PC down in the cine room gets around 218+ Mbps

I get about 80Mbps laptop <-> network (802.11n 5Ghz), and about 5Mbps SGS <-> network (802.11n 2.4Ghz). Not horrible, but certainly not wonderful. I wish it had a 5Ghz radio too, so I could turn off my 2.4Ghz stuff :-/

[Q] Do you have problems with Wifi? (N-band)
Since my phone is on it's way to the repaircenter I would like to ask you all this Question.
I have problems with my wifi connection. The strange thing is, is that my router is brandnew! b+g+N!!!
The weird part is that it has only problems with the N-band
SO I hooked up another wireless router only with the b+g band and BAM it works.
But that's just messed up to have 2 wireless routers one for laptops and one just for my mobile phone...
So can u try the same thing and give me your comments about this issue?

there was already a topic about this
however one topic we did not touch base on, on the other topic was about the B+G bands
if you read the documentations you'll noticed that for N to work at full speed, it must only listen to N no B no G
when you use Mix mode, N doesn't work well
to use N, you need 2 bands, B + G only needs 1 band
if you enable all 3 B+G+N you only get 1 band for all, so making the N useless
the trick is to update all your old hardware that still runs G or B to N
then you can use pure N, and gain full speed
the SGS phone can run up to 87 Mbps on N
meanwhile computers can go up to 280+ Mbps

[Q] manual wifi fix app?
Hey, like many Android users I'm often having problems with Wifi not connecting to APs. While that can be fixed by restarting Android that takes a lot of time and is more than annoying. There are some apps to solve this issue, they "fix" wifi whenever the screen is turned on (e.g. http://www.appbrain.com/app/wifi-fixer/org.wahtod.wififixer http://www.appbrain.com/app/blade-wifi-fix/com.bladewififix).
That however I don't like either as due to the fixing taking place always wifi connection becoming established takes quite a lot of time. So my question: Is there an app that fixes the wifi connection but does so only manually, e.g. by clicking a widget button?

[Q] Can't connect to Wifi?
I select my Wifi network, I enter in the password, it says connecting, authenticating, connected, remembered, then it says disconnecting, searching, authenticating, and it repeats. The H at the top never disappears, no Wifi icon ever appears, what is the issue exactly?
And yes, I am connecting to a Wireless-G signal.

Don't worry I can't connect to your home network either so it's not a problem with your phone

I suggest you delete the password from the router and try and connect .
If you connect setup again with the password .

I had the same problem and i manage to fixit with "WIFI STATIC". It's free on Market. Access your router config and add your Galaxy Mac adress, then fill the parameters in WiFi Static. It Works! Never had problems again! Oh, i think you have to put your's computer(s) mac adress too in the router.

is there really no such app? :-(

Best wi-fi performance

I noticed in the advanced wifi settings the option to tick 'best wi-fi performance' it says this may use more power. Anybody know what it actually does? Also is the DHD wireless n standard without having to do anything?

What rom are you using? I do not see this on leedroid

Just the standard ROM that comes on the phone as i havent rooted.

I have a question on this also

It will be there. You have to press menu on the wifi settings page.

Yep, this definitely uses more battery, this unfortunately is a must for me since I have the phone in a case and I get very poor reception with Wifi otherwise. GPS is also weak takes ages to lock.
It's under Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Wi-Fi Settings -> Press menu button -> Advanced and it's there.

Remember that the signal is never 100% and there is some loss in speed. I always use best wifi performance as it improves the signal and from my room which isn't too far from the router I can max my 5mbs connection which I find quite impressive. On 1.5mbps connection you should be maxing at around 170kbs.

it need more power than normal using

but, i dont know in leedroid hay rev have it

Speedtest.net with best wifi performance: 3703 kbps down 1244 kbps up
Without best wifi performance: 2909 kbps down 1214 kbps up
Makes a slight very slight difference. This was upstairs away from the router. Downstairs I can get 9-10 Mbps whether it is on or off, whereas on my laptop I can get 12-13 Mbps.

It does not apply the n-setting, because if I turn on the n-setting on my router, my phone disconnects from WiFi.

I suppose you have a 1.5 megabit connection and a downstream of 600 kilobyte per second? One byte = 8 bit.
Because if it is like that, you should, as ErOR22 mentioned, not be able to get over 187.5 kB/s (if my calculation is accurate ^^).
If you really mean that you have 1.5 megabyte downstream you could try to get closer to the router and/or minimize the number of walls between you and your router. This should boost your speed.

battery drains real bad when you switch best performance to on and it does activite the n setting its one off HTC's power saving tricks. I have dual band router an my DHD connects fine
for signal, covering the battery cover kills wifi as thats were the antenna is.

That's interesting, you got your numbers wrong again lol. On 1.5Mbs connection you say you download at 1600kbs which is 1.6Mbs lol. Funny that, on LAN you should be getting a lot more. When testing LAN are you coping from from another computer that's on wireless?
When I turn on Best WiFi Performance I idle at around 70mA and with it turned off it's under 10mA, so a huge difference but I need it unfortunately.

speed varies because because tv runs off the same line. ~15mb/s without any TVs going or shows being recorded and ~10mb/s or so when 2 or more are being used, but I still only get like ~6-7mb/s on the dhd, same with lan shares accessed from the device

[Q] xoom wifi 5ghz router

Just got this net gear high performance router. I connected to the 5 ghz band not the 2.4ghz and it acted like it didn't speed up the browsing much if at all. Download speed was around 2.5mbs. Rechecked to make sure I was on the 5ghz and it was. So I rebooted then rechecked the speed and got around 5.5mbs download speed. But after about 4 5 hours of playing around on the browser its like it starts slowing back down again sometimes so bad the page I'm trying to open just stops and the browser closes. Not force closes. But like I hit the home button. Reboot and its OK for a few hours again. I only keep one tab open to by the way just to keep from using any more memory. If I root and try a different kernel dose anyone know that this will go away?

A 5ghz router will not speed up your browsing over a 2.4ghz router, If you're only getting 5megs down anyways. Now if you had a 100meg connection maybe.
It also will have nothing to do with the fact that the browser gets slow over time.
High speed wireless routers are more about sharing content between computers on your wireless network.

but before I got this 5ghz router all I had was a 2.4 and my laptop wouldn't even play a YouTube video without stopping ever 10 seconds. Now with the new one its done buffering before I can smell my fart. It speeds up my internet like Ive never seen.

Are you connecting to the router on the 5ghz frequency? Most laptops don't even have this capability.
If there was a lot of 2.4ghz interference around it may have had something to do with it.
Think about it, why would a 5meg connection that you were already maxing out at 802.11g (54mb/s) get any faster at a different frequency?

I'm pretty sure its more of a router issue. Try a different channel. Default is usually 7. If you are in a populated area there are probably a lot of others using that channel as well.
Download wifi manager in the market https://market.android.com/details?id=org.kman.WifiManager&feature=search_result
See which channel is the cleanest and use that one. Hope that helps!

Yes the lap top dose support it. The wife was about to give up on it because it wouldn't do what she wanted it to now its perfectly fine. But I was just wondering why my xoom is slowing down after a while till a reboot. I just did the speed check again on my 2.4 band and it was the same as it used to be around 2.5mbs download speed. Then reconnected to the 5.0 ghz on the dual band wireless router and it jumped up to 6.4 mds download speed on speed test app.
Well I don't know? I was thinking that the 2.4 channel was slower than the 5.0 one but now they are both the same speed. And I was under the impression that 5.0ghz is faster than 2.4ghz but they're not they're just two different channels or frequencies I guess? I've just never delt with one of these fancy wireless routers before just stuck with what was installed by the cable guy. Maybe I can try keeping the cache clean in my browser and see how it dose.

just based on my limited understanding of wireless networking (slash basic physics), the higher frequency has the only benefit if being on a less populated channel. (More traffic means slower soeeds, more intereferemces, missing packets, etc...). I believe that the higher frequecy also degrades faster/ doesn't penetrate walls as well because it carries less energy, but I've never tried it myself. Just see what works best with some trial and error.

Do you fart everytime you play a video? Maybe your nose is getting used to it so it only seems faster. I would hate to walk into your computer room after you've been inthere watching youtube.

I have the exact same problem, I have the netgear wndr3700, and the xoom does slow down after a while and a reboot fixes it. Ive tried both the 5 and 2.4 ghz and its the same story where it won't finish loading pages. I'm actually exchanging my router tomorrow for the wndr3400 because what I have now is overkill for my needs. What router do you have?

i had the same issues with the Linksys E4200. I was upset because my wife's 1st Gen ipad was blowing me out of the water in browsing speed. Then she had to nerve to ask "so why did you spend $600 on this?". Switched to 2.4 and everything is fine now. Better than fine actually. Now that I saw the 5ghz settings I may try again.

[Q] Wifi Streaming Lags

Guys
I have not been able to stream 5 secs of the transformer video or any youtube video without significant stutter and lag. I have plenty of speed with my home wifi as far as i know. I have 20+mbs with Comcast and never have issues with my wifi.
what could be wrong...is it my N7 or my router?

I'm so happy someone else has this issue. Well not happy but happy to know I'm not the only one. I have 30+ download on my home WiFi and it lags when I try to watch YouTube also. Its very annoying. It can't be my WiFi because I have tried several other devices and they work great. Hopefully an update will come and fix soon because I'm an avid youtuber. But yeah your not the only one man.

I was having a issue watching transformers as well, I also rented a movie using my credit and never finished it because of lag.

try do a speed test see what's the through put you get on your device. Also, in the wifi setting, see at what speed you are connecting to your wifi router.

yea, doesn't seem like any problem with your connection. Did you try streaming via other apps such as hulu or only lags in youtube?
Some thing you can try:
1. wipe youtube memory and try it again. You can even try uninstall it and download a fresh copy from the market. If still lags, try #2
2. install the flash apk and try streaming youtube via another browser such as Dolphin HD and see how it works out.

what would you suggest I use for a speed test?

using speed test.net app my speeds are

If that's the speed you are getting through a router then there is a problem, perhaps router related.
Go to wifi setting on N7, tap on your current wifi connection, it should tell you the speed you are connected. Ideally it should be 54mbps or higher depend on your setup, but based on your numbers it seems it's connected at much lower speed, below 15mbps I'd guess. My 3g dl speed is even higher than that.
use your phone or another wifi device to do a speed test again, if similar low number then check your router's wifi configuraiton or change a router.

Last night I was on Netflix watching Weeds and the only time there were any hiccups was at the beginning of the episode when Netflix was adjusting the quality to my internet connection. By the end of the theme song there was no noticeable stutters and I believe it had upgraded to HD 720p. So Netflix seems to not be a problem.

My Cell phone HTC One S is even worse on wifi....352 kbps DL speeds.
I have a pretty new router. this doesn't make sense to me.

I just noticed the cap-out link speed of 65Mbps too. The manual says that the N7 is 802.11b/g/n capabile, so I figured I should see at least 150Mbps (if not 300Mbps like my laptop).
Anyone else noticing this low cap-out? Is this a software issue of the N7 or a hardware issue that I should have my unit exchanged for?

Normal G router will have max of 54mbps so looks like you have a N router since you are connected at 65Mbps. Some wireless N router can only output 150mbps and some will do 300mbps. Most of modern mobile device's wifi N adapter is only rated up to 150mbps however. 65mpbs is really on the low side for N network but still sufficient unless you wish to do a lot streaming withing your own network. Keep in mind that, if you have both G and N wireless device connected to your router at the same time, the link speed will be reduced depend on your router's configuration.

I have verified that I can connect to the router\access points in my place at speeds between 242-300Mbps no problem. I have no G devices connected. It appears that the N7 is capping out a 65Mbps.
My question was whether anyone else (other than Rugged96 and myself) is seeing this in their WiFi connection info?

I guess N7 will have a max of 65mbps just like most of the phones out today mainly due to the single antenna. To get higher N speed you need multiple antennas (MIMO)

I won't be able to deconstruct my router until later tonight. I am working from home and need to stay focused....

So it is a limitation of the physical hardware...That is good to know. I was worried that something was wrong with my tablet.
Thanks!

Man that is BS!!!! Your telling Me I can't watch an HD movie on YouTube because the tablet went let me??? Why do they even have the option to go HD then? My internet pushes out 35mbps. That should be more then enough to run HD.

No problems here. Watched transformers Friday night with no problem. Sunday my wife used the timewarner app to watch NASCAR. I have even used the watch ESPN with no problems tethering from HOX. Not saying its not your N7 but it sounds like a problem with your network. Unplug cable modem for a min or do a reset through the GUI. Maybe reset the router while at it.
