[Q] A500 3.2 loses WiFi connection - Acer Iconia A500

I've always experienced more or less problems with WiFi connectivity on my A500, on vanilla 3.0, 3.1, 3.2 and now, 3.2 Lightspeed 1.0.4 mod.
The tablet loses WiFi connection (with "(No service)"), then either reconnects in a second or stays with "connecting" message for several seconds and re-tries again and again, losing connectivity for 5-15 minutes. The problem is unrelated to DHCP (i.e. tablet never gets to "obtaining IP address" phase). The problem is quite frequent and persistent - short-time disconnections happen up to several times per minute.
I'm using self-built WiFi router, based on Atheros 2413 PCI card and GNU/Linux system (hostapd), WPA+WPA2-PSK. All devices (phones, notebooks) I've encountered worked fine for years, so the problem seem to be with tablet, not access point.
logcat gives me story like this:
Code:
I/wpa_supplicant(20318): CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - Disconnect event - remove keys
V/WifiMonitor(19967): Event [CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - Disconnect event - remove keys]

D/WifiStateMachine(19967): setDetailed state, old =DISCONNECTED and new state=SCANNING
Then it repeats for some time. At the same time, hostapd_cli all_sta on the router says that tablet is considered associated (i.e. it never sent disassociation packet, and not yet timed out).
It seems that the problem is related to background AP scanning. If I run ping using ConnectBot or adb shell, I get lots of the following messages:
Code:
E/wpa_supplicant(20318): ioctl[SIOCSIWPRIV] (cscan): -1
W/wpa_supplicant(20318): Failed to initiate AP scan.
And connectivity seem to stay better. It may accidentaly go down, but that's relatively rare. So, my guess is, the problem is caused by bcm4329 not properly restoring its state after scan.
(Unfortunately, I'm not experienced enough to recompile bcm4329 module with WL_TRACE enabled to see what's going on inside the kernel. If there are some sort of tutorial on how to set up build environment - I'd be grateful if someone would give a link.)
Does anyone experience similar problem or has any idea or suggestion on how to solve it?

on the androidtablet forum several people have wifi dropout, including myself, after the 3.2 update.
Someone said if you do a static connection it solves it.
Problem is you can only connect through that router.

I had been doing a poke around with my DHCP server settings and the two tablets that use my wifi connection..
I found that if the DHCP lease time was any more than 24 hours, the tablet would re-lease about every 3 minutes which would cause a drop out of internet connection.
I found even INFINITE lease didnt work, so check the lease time on the dhcp server on your network..

My issue is certainly not related to DHCP, although, there are similarly-looking issues with DHCP (but connection hangs on "obtaining IP address", not "connecting" phase).
Reasons:
- No DHCP activity happen on tablet or router (I've checked this with tcpdump)
- Logs indicate that wpa_supplicant does not enter "connected" state, but hangs with
Code:
I/wpa_supplicant(20318): Authentication with 00:13:46:xx:xx:xx timed out.
Obviously, static IP address assignment did not help.
However, I've temporarily disabled WPA/WPA2 (leaving network completely unsecured) and WiFi stayed connected for about an hour without glitches. As I've said, disconnections usually happen every minute. What really puzzles me though, is that after reverting the configuration disconnections did not start again. I don't get it.
Update: Nope, it still disconnects, although way less frequently (like once in 5-10 minutes). Still wonder why.

I never had to install the wifi patch for the last release. After the update, I had wifi dropout and installed the patch, then edited the lease time on the router. No problems since. Hth.

I, too, have Iconia A500 problems w/ Wifi. I have a Cisco router, works fine, all other wireless devices work (PS3, Samsung Vibrant, Ipads) but the A500 dumps Wifi every 3-4 mins... down for 15-30 seconds, then springs back up to life. I updated to 3.2 in HOPES to fix this but sadly, no luck yet... It's quite upsetting because I love the tablet but really regret purchasing... Acer's tech support is TERRIBLE at best, and have been no help. Factory resets, wifi analyzers, nothing helps... I could root/rom this thing but what if that does not work?
Can I open this f'er up and fix something hardware related? Why doesnt the Asus Tab drop out where my Acer does??

All this is really strange. I had the wifi drop out on the 2 roms I tried, tabbonay and HV. So went back to stock 3.1 rooted and no wifi drop out, went to 3.2 stock rooted and no problems either. The other day, I wanted to try the latest tabboonay again, love the rom but the problem started again. Back to 3.2 stock.
I know other said they have the problem with stock 3.1 and 3.2 so I wonder what the common element is.

I have responded to a similar "wifi"disconnected thread with my solution.I basically flashed the villain kernel 3.7 on top of taboonay 2.2 and my problem went away. Ymmv, I guess....

I just bought an A500 Iconia, it worked very well until asked to update. He upgraded from 3.0 to 3.1 and then the problems started. He is not even connected for 1 minute.
It is brand new, unrooted, stockrom.
please help. Does anyone knows how to fix this problem?

I don't think there is a definite answer. From what I can tell, there are probably several problems with the same type of symptoms.
But here are a few pointers that I have been able to gather:
-3.1 seems to be the worst. 3.01 or 3.2 work better. So either downgrade or upgrade. Please be aware that a 3.2 upgrade make rooting harder if you choose to do so.
-Setting the router and/or the tablet to static IP seems to work better than
DHCP.
-Rooting and upgrading to 3.2 ROMS (Taboonay 2.2) with the Wifi fix AND the VillainKernel 3.7 fixed everything for me, but I still don't have confirmation from somebody else that this is a general solution.
-Switching to no security instead of WPA2 seems to help with the symptoms.

well, the tablet upgrade to 3.2 (i´m still with the unrooted stock 3.2) and the wifi issue continues. I tried to contact ACER many times, but the only thing they answer me, is to make a factory reset, as much I tell to them that this does not solve the problem.

I'm running stock 3.2 on my A500 and had problems with Wi-Fi dropouts every few minutes, most noticeably when trying to maintain a constant connection with SSH or FTP. After modifying the Wi-Fi settings to use a static IP the problem is gone. I can now keep a solid connection without any dropouts.

***UPDATE***
I sent my A500 tab in for warranty work, pitched a ***** about the WiFi...
Their work order claims that the "WiFi is operating normally for this model"...
But it has some new software build and for the last 2 weeks has not even missed a beat on the WiFi, with 100% uptime and connectivity!!! NO CLUE what they did, they will NOT tell me anything via email or phone, other than it is fixed... They know there's a problem... send those tabs in!

I have the same exact problem. I've tried flashing a few different rooms like taboonay and thor but both had the same issue. I flashed back to stock 3.2 and called Acer support. After calling a few times and them having me do several factory resets they finally had me send it in for repair. All they did was "reload android" which would have been fine if it fixed the issue but it did not. I called back and they had me send it in again and assured me the tablet wouldn't be returned unless the problem was fixed. So I sent it back and when they returned it the work order only said "ran diagnostics. Unit is okay." Well it is not fine. I've tried two different routers at home which work fine with many other wireless devices and the wifi at work all from different distances and same issue. It doesn't happen all of the time but it does very often.
So I called Acer support back and they transferred me to second level support (well it actually took me several calls to get to them since the support staff in India don't seem to really know when the US support team is actually open for calls). They tell me that they left it connected overnight and didn't see any disconnects at the server (similar to one of the earlier posts in this thread) and that my only option would be to send it back to them for a third freaking time. I tried to get them to just replace the damn thing (as others on the web with similar issues say exchanging it worked for them - unfortunately I'm outside my return period - and I have two friends who bought the a500 at the same time as me and they don't have any issues) but they said they can only repair. So I suppose I will send it back to then for a third time with the stipulation that they have to actually use the tablet for a while from various distances, clicking around on web links, to test it. Several times if necessary and speak to me on the phone while they are doing it if they can't reproduce it themselves.
And if that doesn't work I will just have to ***** at them until they agree to replace the thing. Like someone else said, I like the device a lot, but am really regretting purchasing it now.

So I did end up sending it to Acer again. They reloaded Android again and...replaced the LCD screen... The only reason I could possibly think of that would prompt them to replace the LCD screen in trying to fix a WIFI issue is if the antennae is embedded in the screen itself, but regardless, I got it back and its doing the same freaking thing.
At this point I am just completely speechless. I have no idea what Acer support is doing. I tried calling them after I received an email saying my tablet was fixed and was being prepared for shipping since I never received a call from them like they said they would, but first level support would not transfer me to second level until I received the tablet back verified it is still having problems. But they assured me it is definitely fixed this time. Definitely never buying Acer again .

A500 in right now to be looked at
I took my A500 to Acer repair depot today ... I took a picture of my Iphone / Laptop and A500 all together with the wifi signal visible on all 3. I showed the technician that I had full signal strength on my other 2 wifi enabled items but only 2 bars on the A500. He said that it was not a fair test as the laptop has 2 antennas so it would have a stronger signal. I explained to him that I understood he could not comment on what is obviously a problem .. he said he would look at it. I now sit with my fingers crossed and wait for the phone call to pick it up.

Wi-Fi Won't Turn On most of the time

My HTC HD has WIFI Problem: WiFi will not turn on most of the time.
After tapping the Wi-Fi Switch (in Communications Tab) it hangs for about 7 seconds then stops.
Sometimes after 6 seconds the wifi Icon will appear for 1/2 a second but then disappears.
The only way I can get it to connect at all is if the device is cool and I remove the battery for a while....
...Then restart it and Wi-Fi will switch on sometimes (but fail most of the time).
I have flashed the ROM (by different Cookers) many times, Hard Reset the device many times, and used all different power settings: Still no good.
If error reporting is ON I get error message "device.exe' problem.
As I live in Australia I would have to pay heaps for freight if I send it back to UK so I'm loath to do so.
Anybody know what should I do to fix it?
(PS. My old Diamond connects every time)
I have a similar WiFi connectivity problem, but after reading of the poor service provided by most vendors and HTC itself, I will try to gather some more experience with the problem before I contact HTC or my vendor, and hopefully find a solution. Bellow is my experience so far:
I own an HTC Touch HD since January and have a similar problem, only it surfaced last week. Before I had only used the WiFi connectivity briefly. The problems started after I installed an AP on my house expressively for the new PDA. The node is fully open and set to B/G/N protocols.
After a couple days of medium (couple hours per day) use the WiFi connection suddenly quit, the device would try to connect (the top bar showing the WiFi connection animation continuously) and after a few moments gave up with a dialog box stating the current network settings were wrong (even thou they worked fine a few hours earlier).
I tried several hot and cold resets, but only solved the problem after flashing a new ROM; even then the same symptoms reappeared after a couple of days of regular use. Again no re-setting would cure the problem, and now not even flashing the ROM again would work. Nonetheless, some hours latter the WiFi would connect perfectly with the same nodes it refused to before, and in very short time.
I have witnessed this cycle twice and have yet not been able to find a trigger for it, but will keep my eyes open for any tell tale signs, and post any findings here.
What I found out is that If you are using CommManager in TF3D together with other wifi mgr it screws up the wifi. Either you use CommManager or you use 3rd party one but not both at the same time.
Agreed!
Yes I agree completely; something on the permanent storage area got corrupted last week after I installed WiFi Monster (which I like, and recommend, only not at the same time as the standard connection manager).
I managed to get the WiFi conection working again (if only for a couple of days...) by doing the Start>Settings>Clear Storage thing and following the re-install.
Ok, so at least now I know of one more thing that can screw up th HD's WiFi besides itself!
i cant connect to my wifi in my same bedroom !!!
Enhancing WiFi performance
If you get very low range, or frequent connection interruptions, it might help to go to: Settings>Connections>Wi-Fi>Advanced>Power Mode and set it to "Best Performance"
PS. I wonder if anybody gets intermittent WiFi problems like myself. One day it works perfectly, the next it will not connect showing a dialog box: "Warning Cannot connect to the network. Check your network and service provider settings and try again"

How I solved Wifi problem

Lately I have been reading many post related to Wifi problems in the HD. I had the same. Even I was very near my router I couldn't connect to the net and the signal was very weak.
So I entered my router configuration and I found a solution.
Before, for security options I had: WPA-PSK [TKIP] then I changed to WPA2-PSK [AES] (of course you also have to change your HD connection configuratoin), and now it works great¡¡¡¡
Now I have all the bars for the signal and I can connect very easily.
Hope it works for other people

I could add to the above mentioned problems.
i got a new hd just few days back.
The wifi worked great. But now it doesnt.
I have disabled wifi, so can start it whenever i require.
I click on wifi button to enable it.
Then open opera, try any website.
it will open fine.
For instance say my email at gmail.com
Now after that if i try to open anysites or even continue with my mail, it shows error saying connection not available.
One of the workaround is to go back to toggele wifi off and switched it on.
Not sure if anyone faces a similar issue.
I's been about a week since my last post and I have already witnessed a couple of cycles of WiFi connecting perfectly and then not connecting at all.
No matter the settings I try after it decides not to connect, it won't. Even to nodes it had connected perfectly and fast jus minutes before.
I thought re-flashing might help but so far has proven ineffective. Once I thought some part of the non-volitile memory was causing the problem since after I cleared the memory I could connect for a while.
Any thoughts anyone?
Same problems here.
For the last hour I have been reading 10ths of threads here concerning WiFi problems.
My HD's WiFi worked fine on my home and outside for about 2 months. Now it doesn't. It reports connection, but no program can use the internet. At best, it seems to be able to exchange some Kbytes the for just a few seconds after a connection is established. Then nothing. Connected but unusable.
Tried everything Internet/My Work/My ISP, WAP enabled/disabled, soft/hard reset, everything.
When connected through ActiveSync everything works fine, all programs see internet.
Has anybody taken their HD to the service? Has any HTC service worldwide identified the problem as hardware and solved it by replacing something?

I have just encountered a similar problem, but already used wpa/wpa2 with aes. Have tried a hard reset with no joy. My old HTC Touch has no probs connecting via wifi nor does my laptop so I would surmise that the prob is with the HD and not the router.
I am going to try flashing with the latest version of Duttys 6.1 rom and see what gives.
Edit: Tried flashing with new rom with no success. Take a look at this post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3769339&postcount=7
There are a couple of files to download but i only used the second ie this one.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1363759&postcount=2
Now no problems and can connect via wifi no probs, ip address assigned by dhcp.
Try to go into WiFi settings and move the power slider to max performance. I need to do it here to access my router. This happened also with my HTC TyTN II, with any recent radio firmware. The original WM 6.0 ROM and it's radio work fine in low power mode, but the new ones appear connected but are always at 1 Mbps and there's no traffic until you move the slider to performance mode.
You go into WiFi settings and you configure manual IP and DNS so as router.
DNS is important.
Whit manual configuration, Wifi work always.
(sorry for my english)

This is not a solution. I didn 't buy the device to be able to connect to my home WiFi only. What about public hotspots? Or hotels? Or whatever outside your home?

3.1 wifi connection issues

I have noticed this a lot - I have found other threads with the same issue.
Every time I try to connect to any wifi network - I will have reset the tablet in order to make the connection. It will ultimately go back and forth from "Scanning" to "connecting" but never "Connected."
I noticed that 3.1 had a downgraded wifi driver, what gives? I never saw an improvement.
I have the same problem. Only fix I have ever heard anyone talk about is using a static IP address.
Same issue there. After a long period of "sleep" time, my tablet also has issues recovering the Wi-Fi.
However, resetting only the Wi-Fi (in parameters, uncheck Wi-Fi then re-check it) works for me and my tablet gets connected afterwards.
Switching into and out of air plane mode also seems to fix it for me... But it is very annoying...

San Francisco Wifi Problem - Obtaining IP Address

Hi Everyone,
really need some help. Made the step up to Froyo from Eclair and now I cannot connect to my BT Home Hub2.
It just keeps saying "Obtaining IP Address". I have tried resetting, static IP and random IP, airplane mode on and off again.
I just cannot get it working - even tried to the 2 apps that help fix ZTE Blade wifi.
Any suggestions?
Really need help. Thanks
Try change the security on your router to WEP from WAP
BT Home Hub 2 known issue, apparently:

BT Homehub/Android 2.2 Wifi solution
Hi all
Ive been searching for a solution for a fix for my HTC Desire on 2.2 which suddenly stopped connecting to my homehub wifi a few days ago. It would find the hub and recognise it..but would get stuck at obtaining the IP address...time out...and repeat the process without connecting.
It appears that BT have been rolling out a firmware update to their boxes that nobody was aware off! The bones of it is that your PC still connects fine but your smartphone doesnt. This leads you to think its an issue with the phone. It is not!
2.1 seems unaffected, but a percentage of 2.2 phones have had the issue. Ive spent three days on every android/htc forum under the sun and found no solution til i found a BT forum.
The new firmware needs a full system reset of your box to allow your Android 2.2 phone to reconnect to the internet. You simply locate the pinhole reset button and push. A normal hub reset doesnt do anything and neither does turning the box on and off at the plug
Its such a simple fix, but its not down on any of the forums. BT have been giving their usual 'service' to many and have not alerted anyone to this firmware issue. The same firmware issue is being rolled out the last six weeks and more people are having this frustrating issue.
Spread the word
Thanks

A300FU WiFi locks entire Router

OK - I use LOS 14 which has been more or less fine ( a few documented niggles on the thread, but OK up to now)
About two weeks ago, without any obvious changes my WiFi locks the entire router - resulting in a router reset. Router is a "TP Linke AC750 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router"
I did initially think this was triggered by the IP lease expiry, but set IP addresses or maxing out the lease time didn't seem to work. But it does seem to occur when the phone reconnects
I have increased the log settings - see screen shot - with "network_selection_disabled_association_rejection=3"
Also, in the Logs there is WiFiQualifiedNetowrkSelector: <ssid>: <mac of router> is on blacklist
Looking around the net this error seems to be down to the phone blacklisting the router due to poor connections - but I didn't even leave the house today and it hit
I've tried lots of tweaks to WiFi, keeping it on, keeping it off. I have now just moved my Routers channel to a less busy one - but I have no idea what is causing it.
I have removed all the apps that I can recall installing just before this happened.
ROM is as it is and was stable for months before this happened - Router firmware is up to date and went through factory reset - can't do that for phone for a week as it is my key generator for 2 factor authentication to work network and if I zap phone you can bet work will need remote access before next week!
Ideas anyone?
Cheers
