I have a problem with Wi-Fi.
Look this video http://youtu.be/Nz3iZdUh-H0
Three wi-fi routers are my routers in the room.
When I connect to routers the signal show minimal and then maximum again. Why this happens? It is only on my device?
Yesterday was too bad. When signal became minimal Nexus 7 didn't connect to router and the show maximum signal again.
Is it new variant of defective?

Is it normal that my hd2 has lower wifi reception than my laptop? I mean, my router is in the living room and i have 4 to 5 Bars of wifi signal on my laptop in the bedroom, but i have only one bar on my HD2! There are two walls(one room) between living room and bedroom? I've try'd it at my friends house with his laptop and his router, it's the same thing.
Is it normal the phone to have lower reception or may i try to flash a new radio?
I'm using stock ROM 1.48 with radio 2.05.
Thanks in advance!
doesn't anybody have this problem?
My HD2 gets slightly less reception bars than my
laptop in the same location. Could be the way the meters are calibrated, but more likely the larger antenna in the laptop. With wireless N enabled my internet speed tests seem about the same with two bars as with three. Almost same with N disabled.
I have a linksys WRT54GL router and the HD2 gets low signal strength. Only about 7m away from the router and behind one wall. So I am not sure what is up. The router also has 7db antenna attached.
Laptops get much better signal strength. Not sure what the issue is.
A phone doesn't have the same amount of Power as a laptop nor the Antennas Range ... On my Laptop i get several WiFi Signals while on my HD2 I only get two... In the Same location
Could be that you need the wireless N enabled on your phone use the search option
Thanks for the tip about the wireless N enabled on the phone.
I understand that laptops have higher powered antennas. But even if I place the phone right next to the router it will not get 100% signal strength. It will go to maybe 50-60% tops. This is with the phone right next to the router.
Maybe a radio upgrade etc might be on order.
Will try the N enabled feature 1st, even though I use a G router.
try to remove the battery cover. See this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=785907
antenna in your laptop will be much bigger and better located than the one in your phone
with a WRT54GL Router The Wireless-N Option will have no effect.
Your router only supports Wireless-G
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
Hi,
I have 2 problems.
1. Phone with 4G and WiFi enabled. Smart network switch is enabled. And there is 2 WiFi available. The phone is initially connected to WiFi A (5 GHz), which has similar strength as of B (2.4 GHz) and both are 5 bars. Then I move to another spot when A has 1-2 bars and B has 4 bars. The phone will remain connected to A and won't switch to B. I think there used to a setting to avoid WiFi with poor signal. But I can't find it any more. What could I do to make it auto-switch to B when A drops to 2 bars?
2. Tablet with WiFi only and no option for smart network switch. I have a set it up to auto connect to an open WiFi at a place and it works. However, when I leave that place, it will remains connected to it, even though it can no longer be found (miles away now). The WiFi tab should show it has 1 bar signal and it's connected. I have to manually connect to another WiFi. How could I fix this?
Thanks
Try WiFi Manager from Kostya Vasilyev at both problems. i believe it will help you
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
What are some particulars why my G3 is suddenly getting intermittent wifi at a certain range when it's been in the same room for years and never had an issue? It was working fine before and now it cannot sustain wifi connection despite "showing" an initial max/good signal, especially when it starts initiating such as loading a video on YouTube. However, it works fine when in close range to the router which makes it confusing if it's the WiFi antenna hardware already or some sort of new interference.
tl;dr
1. Works fine when near the router. No connection loses. WiFi signal in my room is good/excellent regardless.
2. WiFi SSIDs show up, then remains SAVED, the says no internet, then randomly connects and works.
3. Connection drops the moment I open a YouTube video, load an app, etc. basically when there is loading involved.
4. Phone has been in my room for years so the range is good and consistent.
5. Other devices can see the WiFi connection just fine, it is just this phone recently that showed a problem suddenly. WiFi signal at good/excellent for every other device.
6. There are other WiFi SSIDs of neighbors but only around 3 or so and they've existed for a while already. We are also in the appropriate channel away from theirs via WiFi Analyzer.
7. The router signal strength is able to reach even up to the house beside ours in the garden.
What I tried:
1. Reset network settings via Backup and Restore.
2. Changed ROM.
3. Removed Blokada / VPN. Private VPN is off.
4. Turned on Airplane mode, then turned on WiFi.
5. Channel WiFi channel, router Mhz, connected to 5 Ghz.
6. Removed Bluetooth devices in the area, Bluetooth toggle at off.
7. Went near the router to connect, it's sustained, then walked over to the room, connection drops. Other devices sustain it.
I understand the phone is showing its years but curious what could be possible reasons for this new issue to appear.
