i seem to be having some difficulty and was wondering if anyone else is as well...I can't seem to connect to the server to stream SiriusXM on my Inc...only happens on the newer Z-based roms...I can connect to the server, but i cannot stream the media via 3G, wifi works fine, and if I connect on wifi, then turn wifi off, it works on 3G, but if I lose the connection on 3G, it won't re-connect...
it works great on the HD port from IncDoes...but the newer ports are all coming from the Z port, and that is where the problem seems to stem from.
anyone else having this issue? (i haven't tried streaming anything else since I don't use any other apps to stream...i will try that out on the newest builds)

are you running the Sirius XM 1.1 app? there was an issue that was addressed for 3G streaming.
Only issues i've ever ran into was repeating of the same content when it lost connection and connection was re-established it would still repeat up to the point where it lost connection from the point the channel was cached.
it could also be a server issue, ever since they launched the app they've had nothing but problems with there server cutting in and out, losing connection, quality took a nosedive etc. I think its the limitations they set in the app itself, i seriously (pun intended) wish someone in the android community would develop a better app.
I listen to my app from my phone while i'm at work and seeing how i just let it stream for a few hours, it eventually asks "continue streaming?" while yes i agree its a nice feature for THEM to keep server load down but what about us legitimate users that use it while working and don't want to keep messing with the phone / app to just listen.
My wifi is spotty, at best. I've tried every ROM but every ROM has the same issues: wifi will work for awhile, then it won't, then I power the phone off, then it doesn't work after I power it back on, then I disable it and re-enable it, and it may/may not work. Basically, it's totally unreliable.
I AM running a 2.4 mouse/keyboard combo, but I've tried different channels on my router: 1,6,11 ... they all have issues. My router is a D-LINK 615 and supports 801.11b-n.
I have an iPhone and it is rock solid on the wifi; plays nicely with the keyboard and mouse and doesn't miss a beat. But I REALLY want my HD2 to work: it's more baddass!
Can anyone help me out?
by not working, could you be more detailed? coz if the problem is about wifi went to sleep state after you lock the phone, then there's a settings for that.

Where's the setting?... I must have missed it! I can restart the phone and get the wifi symbol, but the reception bars aren't fully lit... only the very lowest (I'm on a sense build now).
I go into wifi settings and it says 'connected' ... but I try to load the browser, or marketplace, or Amazon AppStore ... and I'm not connected. I disable wifi then I renable it and my wifi bar is full! And the wifi works for, maybe, 30-45 seconds before it doesn't work again.
Really, really odd. And this is how it behaves on all ROMs I've tried.
*EDIT* I just saw that my wifi sleep policy is set to 'never' go to sleep.
I just turned on "best wi-fi performance" but I have my doubts that it will work... and my battery is going to suffer, big time.
I suffer from similar symptoms.
Wifi will show as being connected (but sometimes the signal meter is obviously off), but things like the browser won't load. It'd be nice if wifi just dropped entirely (and then push notifications would work again), but it doesn't. It just doesn't work; it shows as being connected, but I can't load things.
If I disable/re-enable wifi, it works again.
I think most of the time (for me) the trouble is the result of going between different APs or coming back to an AP, but still sometimes problems occur even when I'm sitting still at a single place (I'm connected to a campus network, but I've had this problem happen on a 1-router network before too).
I've found that, overall, the g.lewarne kernel works really well after a few reboots (wifi sometimes still gets "stuck," but not as often...), at least better than Raf 1.9. But... problems still exist.
Hope you find a solution here! There have been several threads with this already...
Thanks! Help installing a new kernel...

Hrmm.... I've been searching high and low for a good kernel and was thinking it might be the issue. I found g.lewarne's kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=917590 ... but I have no idea how to apply it to my current build: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1027768
Is it possible to apply the g.lewarne kernel to CME Desire HD2?

I just flashed g.lewarne's GL_CORE_V5 from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=917590&highlight=reboot
... I flashed the whole ROM and I'm getting zero wifi. Even with the other kernels I was able to get some wifi, but none with this one. I like the ROM look a lot, but nothing doing on the wifi front.
Anyone else have suggestions??
WPA vs WPA2
Make sure you set ONLY WPA and TKIP in your router settings... I have much more reliable wifi because of this.
Also, choose specific wifi channel ... channel 6 works for me, and I've seen channels 1 and 11 as recommended channels as well.
Mixed WPA/WPA2 and TKIP/AES modes were horrible for wifi
FYI!
My ROMs are working relatively well now... much better than mixed modes (no wifi working)

Ah. Unfortunately I have little control over the wifi infrastructure on campus (I'm in a college environment). That said, I'm not connected to the WPA2 Enterprise ssid but the unencrypted one.
Good to hear you found a resolution!
I have found that WiFi works just as good as my laptop when I'm running Windows Phone 7. Much faster at connecting and can connect further to the edges of signal then Android. I wonder why this is.
I'm having problems connecting to the corperate wifi with my Nexus 10, I've used an android tablet berfore on it, TF101 connected without any problems, I've seen issues reported with the Nexus 7 and Wifi, has anyone else had and issues connecting to WPA/EAP with Certifcate authentication.
The device is crrectly registered as it can connect to another SSID which uses the same mac database
Working fine for me, however I have been disconnected twice in the last 2 days,

Bump.
Any fix to this issue? We use WPA/EAS and I get "not in range". Some people got it to work and some didnt. there's an open bug being tracked on Google (Issue 34212) but no workable solution on the N10.
Having problems with optimium wifi. I have to sign in everytime, while on my phone/laptop its not needed.
I downloaded the wifi register app from optimium, but it can't sign in with that. Any solution?

My connection stays strong (max bars) when for example playing a youtube video, but after while the video endlessly buffers (or freezes) until, either I jump in and out of multitasking screen or restart the WiFi connection. It's as if it can't reinitialize the stream for some reason. I have the same problem downloading apps and other media, i.e. good signal, stable connection, but just seems to time out continuously. It's driving me mental, without reliable WiFi the device is next to useless. I'm hoping it's a software issue that will be addressed soon, but if not I suppose it's RMA time.

I had the same issue with YouTube last night. It took me a while to get the connection back at one point. I rebooted the device and the router and I eventually got my connection back. I would tend to think it is a combination of Android and the router that will eventually be worked out with an Android software update.
I have a NSX-46GT1 & have had no issues with it at all. About a week or so ago I started having connection problems with the Netflix app. Now, I've done the usual cleaning cash/killed process/even reset the whole TV. My other apps like YouTube & Chrome work fine. Now here's the interesting part; if I change router ports or switch to WiFi it will connect fine. It will only have issues as long as I don't close the app out or keep it idle for too long.
I have exhausted all possibilities from the router by opening it up as much as I can (disable firewall etc.) Even tried changing the DNS ip's bit still come across the same issue. The TV is not rooted & I cannot find a working Netflix apk atm, any ideas guys?
If this thread is posted in the wrong place I apologize & please point me in the right direction.
I wasn't sure where to put this, but the issue started with the nexus player, so I figured I'd try here.
My girlfriend and I were watching a TV series on netflix, on my nexus player, when it started having a connection problem. I've had my nexus for about 6 months and have never had an issue with it before.
I can get onto netflix on the nexus player, and browse the titles, but as soon as I try to play something, it tells me my device may not be connected to the internet. If I do the network test, it shows a good test for all 3 netflix servers, and the internet connection. I can watch netflix on my laptop just fine over wifi, but of course, if I try to stream the tab.... it opens the netflix app which says it can't connect. (I tried uninstalling the netflix app and streaming the tab, but it just tells me I need to install the netflix app)
Finally I tried installing netflix on my galaxy S5, and it also wouldn't stream anything, until I turned off wifi.... then it worked fine. I have tried everything I can think of and have read to try to fix this. I've changed my router to send default ISP DNS servers to devices, I've tried setting google DNS servers, I've checked time zone settings, I've cleared netflix app data, I've uninstalled and reinstalled, I've done a factory reset.... nothing will work.
If it's an issue with router settings, I don't understand why it works fine on my laptop. I had made no changes to my network or any of my devices' configuration when it stopped working.
Does anyone have any idea why this would only affect android devices, and only over my wifi? I have no idea what else to try.

You cleared app data, what about the app cache? Also do you happen to be using a vpn service like unblock-us, I had a similar issue one time when my region had been changed from usa to uk on the website and then it was telling me I couldn't connect. Good luck.

Yeah when you clear data, it also clears the cache. I also uninstalled and reinstalled, and even did factory reset. I'd never had it on my phone until today and no go there... .and like I said, only on WiFi. Yet it works fine on my laptop over WiFi. On my Galaxy S5 it works on cellular fine. This is the weirdest issue I've ever run into.
I've worked as a computer/network tech since 2005, and while I may not be the most knowledgeable guy around, I can usually figure out any network related issue... but I don't know what the difference would be between the android apps and the browser app. I figure if it's not the app it would have to be something with my router/firewall... but I have no idea what.
UPDATE
It's definitely something to do with my router config. I have the same router/access point set up at home as we have at work, and we also have the same internet plan aside from this being a business account. But it's the same ISP, and same Up/Down speed. I just tried it at work over wifi on my phone and it works fine.
It could also be your ISP. Business account traffic is treated differently than residential account.
Ok I got it fixed. I still have no idea what the hell the problem was. I couldn't find any firewall rules that could have caused the issue. Nothing had changed in my set up and it just suddenly stopped working in the middle of watching one day. I considered the ISP being an issue, but my girlfriend also has COX internet, and she had no issues at her house on her blue ray player or phone on her wifi, and like I said before... it still worked on my laptop at home.
I think some kind of bug just popped up in pfsense. I did a factory reset on it and now everything's working fine. Still the weirdest issue I've ever encountered. It still worked fine on my laptop, but not on any android (on wifi), or maybe mobile and not android was the factor? I don't own apple products so I couldn't test that.
