[Q] WLAN / Internet connection fails after a few minutes

Hi there
Maybe this question has been asked before but I only found matching problem descriptions related to other devices so far.
I am using the typhoon nightlies for quite a while and I am very happy with them. There is just one major problem I experience day by day. When I connect to my wireless router (WPA/WPA2 TKIP/AES doesn't matter) I have Internet for a few seconds or minutes but than there is suddenly no more connectivity. WLAN Status still claims to be connected but I can't either reach any local music sources nor any websites or the market.
When I use WEP or no security at all it works just fine. Are there a lot of people with this problem or is there allready a patch for this issue which I missed.
Edit: I have several different router models at home and I tried it with all of them. Same result
Thank you so much for your help

I allow myself to push this thread for one more time. I am a little confused about being the only one with this problem. :S if its really a known bug and the only workaround is to use the mobile connection instead, I could live with it but had to buy another phone for going abroad.
Thx

I have the same Issue. How did you solve it?

[Q] youtube. video issues.

Ok so lately my internet stops working...and i have to turn off my wifi and turn it back on so it works again...i dont know if its youtube. But most video take fo evaaa to load and load slow when they start playing....is it just me. Or is it cause acer needs updates or is it honeycomb ....someone give me some input. Thanks....i dig this tablet but dam its annoyin now.. and i do have latest update...by the way

I am also having issues with Youtube streams. I've confirmed the same videos play fine on my laptop so I know it's not the video or my connection. It's impossible to watch a youtube video in HD on my tablet.

Just started having the same issue today, but I did switch from using intel's my wifi tech in my netbook to a netgear wifi router, so I'm guessing that's my issue.

Others have this wifi reconnect issue?

Well basically does anybody else have this wifi issue? When it wakes up, it doesn't connect to wifi unless you go to wifi and network settings. Then it automatically works wonders. I was wondering if this was a common problem. I had this problem with all the phiremod builds I tried. I tried to research it but this is the only thread I found with the a person who had the same problem...

[Q] Problem with WiFi

Hello,
Yesterday I got the Nexus 4 but I have the following problem:
When I connect it to WiFi, the connectivity bars go from blue to gray (not connected to Google) and the phone has no access to the internet (Play Store, browser, any other app). When I disconnect the WiFi, the connectivity comes back.
There are other devices connected to the same WiFi and they have internet connection. Only the Nex 4 does not.
Has anyone experienced this and have you found any solution?
Thank you in advance!

Does noone have any information?

I have this problem sometimes. I think a lot of the WiFi issues are JB bugs and hopefully they will be worked out with the next release that is coming soon.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I also hope that this is a software issue and it will be fixed with an update soon. I searched for a while around the internet and the only interim solution I could find is to use WIFI Direct together with a Galaxy Nexus - I tried and it works indeed but it is very uncomfortable as you can imagine.
Any other suggestions are more than welcome

Have you already tried you phone with other routers?

Yes, I tried with two other routers and it was the same - connected but no i-net connection.

[Q] Varying results using nexus player on different routers

Hi guys,
So I just got the nexus player for Christmas. After struggling through wifi connectivity issues, I finally managed to get the NP up and running. However not perfectly. Far from it.
I've trialled using the player on two different wifi connections:
1. My home wifi network running on a tp link dual band 1900AC modem router
2. My wireless access point set up on my phone
I've had the best results on my phone's AP, where pretty much everything works, until the connection drops after 1/2 an hour or so. My home wifi network is much less successful.
When connected to my home wifi network, I have the following issues:
1. The Google play store never shows any apps. It's just a blank page.
2. The play music app shows results, and music appears to initiate, but music doesn't actually play. The progress bar doesn't move.
3. The YouTube app won't yield results for any searches. YouTube clips from the home screen play just fine though.
Is anyone able to shed some light on this for me? I'm baffled. I can't fathom any plausible explanation for these issues. The problem is clearly related to my modem router, as I don't have these issues with my phone's AP. But why would some functions work fine (YouTube videos playing from home screen) and others not work at all (YouTube app yielding no results). All this while it all works fine on my phone's AP??
Please, your assistance would be valued greatly.
Oh and merry Christmas all!

I wish I had a solution for you, but I don't. I too have had issues with the Nexus Player dropping its connection, and with the blank tiles related to a lost connection. I love the NP when it works, but it's really buggy.
Actually, here's something to try. Do you normally have your phone's AP always running? I have two wireless networks in my home, and I found that when my NP "remembered" the settings for both of them, I'd get regular disconnects. I have the NP set to only remember/use one network, and I've been getting less dropouts.

Thanks so much for the reply! Turned out it was an issue with my ISP! Frustrating to learn it wasn't an issue at my end at all, but at least it's fixed now. ☺
