I'm guessing not since no one has reported it...
Also, wait more than 15 mins before you bump your thread next time

But he waited a whole 17 minutes, so that must validate his bump!
lolll thanks
My n4's WiFi range is much much better than my s3 and gnex. Similar to my 4s.

I felt the Wifi range was a bit less too, than my GS2. Only at times, however.
just got my N4 and when connecting to my Galaxy nexus hotspot it gets very poor speeds even though the GN will get very good speeds. I connected my N7 to the same hotspot and get good speeds.
for example
N4 connected to GN gets an average of about 1-3mbps
GN will get 9+ easily
N7 connected to GN gets 5+ easily.
My N4 won't even connect to a wireless network at my girlfriends that is configured exactly the same way my home one is with the same SSID and password. Connects fine at my house but not my gfs. all my other devices connnect to both just fine. N4 won't even detect the network at my GFs

I've experienced similar. Toggling WiFi off/on solved my problem.

My property is 100 feet by 180 feet and the router is pretty much smack dap in the middle of it in my house and I can connect to my wifi outside anywhere on my property without a problem. Might be you have a weak router if your having problems. Connecting to TMobiles network is another thing.
wifi weak
I am facing similar issues with wifi on Nexus 4.
I am having only 1/5 bars in comparison to my old Nokia N9 which shows 4/5. Both on 5 Ghz, I tried using different router , still Nexus 4 seems weaker to me.
Mine is weaker than any past device. My N10 doesn't fair much better. Solved it with a wireless repeater.

Yeah that didn't work for me. This happened on fresh stock out of box android and even after I flashed another ROM. It connects to all other wireless just fine though. Probably an issue with that router but that's quite odd if that is the case. I mean, it doesn't even SEE the network at all.
Probably your area is swamped with other networks. I've noticed where I am there are like 50 networks, It can never quite find my router in all the mess...
At my house though I can only see 2-3 networks and it works perfectly. This is probably software related.
I'm having a similar but different issue with my wifi.
No only was my wifi signal pretty weak, it seems that my phone's wifi is no longer working. I noticed that the wifi on my device would not work at all (it won't even turn on) whenever I restarted my nexus 4 and got a "Process System isn't responding" message. The only times in which my wifi was working, was when I didn't get that message. The bad part now is, I seem to be getting that message on all my reboots.
I've tried wiping cache, dalvik cache, fixing permissions, and factory resets.
Any advice?
I have a rooted stock, with clockworkmod recovery. (rooted using efrant's method here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312)
Just got my N7 2013 today, and it dawned on me that there seems to be a huge WiFi issue in 4.3. I have a 20 Mbps connection at home, an ASUS RT-N66u router, and my N4 and both N7s are constantly testing at around 2 - 6 Mbps. I used to be able to get the full 20 Mbps.
I tried doing a factory reset on the router, rebooted the modem, changed channels, changed frequencies, switched back to an older ASUS RT-N16 router and nothing seems to work.
Anyone else experiencing similar problems? It's incredibly frustrating.

I think my router is struggling with the competition between the 3 Android devices. I somehow got it so that the N7 2013 on the 5 GHz channel can get a full 20 and the N4 on the 2.4 GHz channel can only get 15 but that's also with the other N7 tablet off. I have no idea what's going on... *confused*

Are you running custom Roms, check their MACs. There was an initial issue with Roms and macs.

I'm noticing the same issue. Can't get over 3Mbps with this nexus 7. My HTC one pulls 90-100 consistently though sitting right beside the nexus 7. And my old nexus 7 pulls 40-50.

I've got an ASUS RT-N56u and had some wifi issues with the N7. I was initially getting only around 4-5 mbps when I normally get around 20 mbps. So I toggled wifi on and off and it jumped back up to 20 mbps. I checked again after a few hours and it was down to 4 mbps again until I toggled wifi again.
So I tried setting the wifi frequency band in the N7 advanced wifi settings to 2.4 ghz instead of Auto and haven't had any problems since.
I'm noticing a huge difference with web browsing compared to the original Nexus 7.
What I do notice on both 1st and 2nd gen unit is if I'm using my blue tooth ear piece (jawbone era), it sometimes slows down my browsing and especially stream like Youtube. If I turn off the blue tooth ear piece, things are back to normal. It doesn't happen all the time with the 2nd gen but 90% of the time on the 1st gen.
4.3 WiFi speed seems vastly improved from what I've seen on N7 2013 at a Staples as well as on my N4. (Though the Staples floor model was riding on 5 GHz band)
Im Having the same issue. Nexus 7 slow Wifi

So I got my new Nexus 7, and Im having the exact same issue. Any device I have can pull 20-30mbps on speedtest from my home internet, but my New Nexus 7 only gets like 4-5mbps. Its still stock and unrooted.
Normally it wouldn't be a big issue. But streaming HD video at that rate will be choppy, and on this nice screen i want to see the clarity.
I can do a test from my Nexus 7, get 5mbps, right after do one from my GS4 and get 22. Is it the radio?

Ok I just tried that as well and went into advanced. Set it to 2.4ghz only instead of Auto. It got slightly better.
Then I turned it to Keep wifi on during sleep only when plugged in, and unchecked let Google always scan for networks.
My speed just got up to the high teens, 14-17mbps. Still my other devices are getting 20+, but this is a huge improvement from the 4-5mbps I was getting moments ago. hope this might work for others as well :victory:
I have both the 2012 and 2013 Nexus 7 and I can say that the 2013 model performs significantly better with my router (RT-AC66U). The 2013 model peaks at 150 Mbps (theoretical) and I've pulled 100 Mbps down on it in SpeedTest. The OG Nexus 7 maxes out at 65 Mbps. The range seems similar between the two.
I'm having the same issue with mine as well.
I just got my new 2013 Nexus 7 today as well, and have the same slow wifi issue. All my other devices connect and get around 20Mbps, but when I try my brand new nexus7, only get around 4-5? I tried toggling all the above options, but no dice, still same slow speed!
Anyone have any ideas? Is this related to the 4.3 update? Or is it a hardware issue?

I have the same router but with the R at the end since I bought it from Best Buy. Anyway, what firmware version are you using on yours? Also, did you have the auto-channel enabled for 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands?
I'm on a 60Mbps connection and getting about 20 through 3 or 4 walls. about 50 to 60 next to the router.
Just got the Nexus 7 (2013) today, running 4.3.
I am having a different issue. My setup is as follows:
- RT-N66U as main router: device IP:192.168.1.1; DHCP: on; IP starting: 192.168.1.3
- EA-N66 as an AP: device IP: 192.168.1.2; AP mode; Default gateway: 192.168.1.1; Static DNS: same as N66U
Both devices transmit over 5 GHz, same SSIDs, same password. All my devices hop between the router and the AP when I am moving between rooms, based on the signal strength.
The Nexus 7 however, only sees the AP. When running Wifi Analyzer on my galaxy Nexus, I see both MAC ids for the two devices. The Nexus 7 only sees and connects to the AP.
Any idea what could be causing this? It has to be something with 4.2.3 :silly:
I noticed it to when tethering the N7 to my Nexus 4 on LTE. Exchanged it due to excessive screen bleed but haven't opened the new one to check WiFi speeds since I'm not sure I want to keep it at all (will just sell it or gift it).

Can't say I'm having any troubles. My note 2 (not running 4.3) is getting around 40Mb/s whereas the n7's getting around 50ish Mb/s in the same spot

I see now what the problem is. My Nexus 7 v2 doesn't see 5 GHz networks that are transmitting above ch 48. Since I had my router on ch 161 and AP on ch 36, the Nexus 7 would only see my AP.
Any solutions?
I have this issue but on the Nexus 4. My nexus 7 seems to be OK.

so idk how, but it seems as if when i tether my nexus 7 to my g2, I'll get like double the speed every time.
my g2 will struggle to hit around 10 to 12 mbps on 4g, whereas my nexus 7 will shoot immediately up to 20 mbps. my phone has never hit that high, but the tethered device easily does. same server, same everything.
how is that even possible? lol

Hello!
I got my new i9505 two weeks ago, and I'm having issues with Wifi connection.
I have both Galaxy S III and S4. Next to the router (100/10 Mbps HFC connection), my Galaxy SIII reaches 27/10 Mbps, and my Galaxy S4 reaches 30/10 Mbps. That speeds fluctuate (15-40 Mb) but I can say that's a good connection in the phones.
But when I go away a few meters from the router (5-10 meters), the S4 speed drops to 3-0.01 Mb. Yes, 0.01 Mb, when Galaxy SIII drops only 0-5 Mbps less. Curiously, upload speed is usually kept on both phones.
Here are some results from Speedtest.net, left Galaxy SIII right Galaxy S4:
(Sorry, I can't post outside links)
In Galaxy SIII I made one test, results (27.85/10.69/16ms) next to the router. I made the test two times in Galaxy S4, reaching (30.41/8.52/25ms) at its highest point. When I walk away from the router (10m) the speeds on Galaxy S4 drops to 3 Mbps.
I tried all. Stock ROM Kitkat and Lollipop, official PHE ROMs, JFLTE-GPE, Cyanogenmod, different modems (current i9505XXUHOB8)... Is this a hardware failure? What's happening?
If you need more information, please feel free to ask!
Indeed, I'm spanish. I probably made spelling mistakes, I'm not an English expert, please do not judge me harshly! :laugh:
Thanks in advance!
I think it's your router is no good rather than your phone.
Yours must be a max of G mode router or less I think, all my routers are N mode and my SG4 connects at a maximum of 72Mbs, then starts to fall off the farther away I go, it is normal for speed to decrease as you move away.
Your other issue might be the channel that the router is using, also you might have lots of other routers near you too.
Go get WiFi analyser from the play store and find out more info.
Tell us what router you have?

I have a Thomson TGW870 Coaxial router, which is configured in Channel 13, but Wifi Analyzer is fluctuating. I don't have channel 14. Wifi analyzer tells me there is no good channels except channel 14. Sometimes it says channel 12, 13 or 8 are "good" (2-5 stars), so I think it's better stay in Auto.
BTW, I tested all in another connection (ADSL 10/1 Mbps). Galaxy SIII reaches cable speed even staying in the room below (two floor house), when Galaxy S4 reaches incredibly slow speed: (0.01/1 Mbps). Upload speed is unaffected.
I've noticed that Galaxy S4 does not show as many networks as Galaxy SIII, but but networks that detects the S4 have the same attenuation than SIII. They are far connections, but SIII is showing them while S4 not.
Thanks for reply!
Up!
I'm having trouble too with reboots. When I play "Megapolis", the game freezes randomly, and sometimes the phone reboots. I think this may be caused by overheating, but I underclocked to 1.5 Ghz and undervolt -50mV (Stability Test passed). I don't know what's happening with my phone.
Also, my wifi drops sometimes, generally when I'm a bit far from the router.
Is my phone (motherboard or something) damaged?
Hi again with the info you have provided I can't really suggest anything more.
Tell me, how many other routers/other WiFi signals are near you, compare your SIII and SIV.
If you have lots of others near you there must be interface, this is why some people have to use 5Ghz WiFi instead of 2.4 Ghz.
I must note, I haven't seen the specs for the thomson router yet.

The other router I have tested is a Sercomm AD1018 (Vodafone), ADSL connection 10/1 Mbps.
I should try 5 Ghz WiFi, but in my other house (Sercomm), but in my neighborhood there is no more connections, so it isn't an interference issue.
Ah OK mate then if there's no other WiFi signals around then not sure what else.
I will tell you a quick story,
I have a Telstra big pond Adsl2 WiFi router it is a technicolor tg587 I'm pretty sure it is an N300, if I connect upto it and move away about 8 metres away it will drop to B mode and 5Mbs. I also have a WiFi extender it is a dlink dap1320 N300 I can be almost anywhere in the house say upto 20 meters away and still have good connection, it will fluctuate between say 24Mbs and 65Mbs I rarely see lower than that.
Hi,
I just got my Oneplus 2 yesterday. But I noticed a strange issue.
I live in a hostel where login based public wifi is provided. I have a samsung S3 which connects to the wifi even at peak hours of traffic and gives full speed at all times. But when I connect to the same wifi through my oneplus2, it barely gives any speed, even googling is not possible.
Both the devices are able to connect to the wifi with atleast 3 out of 5 bars. I don't understand why when S3 gives proper speed, at the same time oneplus2's wifi fail to perform which is relatively new. Oneplus2's wifi should atleast perform similar to S3, if not better.
BTW I am using Cyanogenmod 10.2 in S3. I've not rooted or done any configuration changes on Oneplus2 yet.
Please suggest if there is anything that I can do to improve the wifi performance on Oneplus2.
Thanks in advance!!
I'm having a somewhat similar issue. I just got my oneplus 2 today and I connected it up to a friend's beamforming router running on 5ghz ac. While an LG g3, Samsung Galaxy Note 4, Samsung Galaxy s4, Motorola nexus 6 all had a connectivity speed of 400-550Mbps, the oneplus 2 on the same network could only achieve a connectivity speed of 96Mbps. I'm not quite sure what is limiting it's connection. Has anyone experienced something similar?
Just got mine today and same issue. If I check as soon as it connects before IP assignment, it registers 433Mbps but as soon as IP assignment happens and traffic starts up on wifi it drops to 96Mbps. Even worse, it only achieves 10Mbps throughput while my OPO gets easily over 100Mbps throughput. Any ideas? Still stock.
I've seen the same thing here, 10mbps on speedtest with 5 GHZ wifi. Interesting thing is if I switch to 2.4GHz I can eek out 80ish, my OPO on CM 12.1 can easily max out my 150mbit connection, considering compiling CM for the OP2 and testing throughput with that to see if it's an oxygen bug (I think it is).
Same problem here. Connected to the same wifi network with my OPO, OP2, and S6 edge. Connection speed to router was 135 mbps, 86 mbps, and 400 mbps respectively. Speed test results for download were 115 mbps ,32 mbps, 172 mbps respectively. OP2 speeds are just lousy and there are no settings I can see to remove wifi optimization that usually causes issues. Tested using the same app, to the same server, all in the same room and distance from the router. I hope this isn't a result of skimping on the hardware and is software related.
I was having a similar problem on my wifi while downloading apps on my new OP2. Changed the wifi setting from DHCP to Static on my phone and im getting full speeds now. Give it a try
i dont having much knowladge of wifi connection but reception of wifi is poor on one plus two . same wifi connection is also connected with
galaxy s4 , yu yureka ,and even samsung galaxy ace dous 1st gen device have better reception than this.. if i cover place near 3.5mm jack wifi bars drops
i dont know what is going on... phone is heating even if i play clash of clan. battery capacity is enough but i dont know why battery backup is so poor.
i was happy when i ordered this phone and wait for invite for 2months now my all hapines turns into sadness after observing these types of things...
now i m thinking that i return back this phone to amazon and clam my full payment.
I´ve experienced something similair, just the other way around: as soon as the OPT gets connected to my WiFi, all other devices´ connection slows down.
My one plus one is fine on 5ghz band and same with nvidia shield tab and nexus 7 but op2 sucks ass at 3mbps but as soon as I switch to 2.4ghz I can get 20mbps with lower latency

I've seen slower Wifi performance and more connectivity problems with the latest OOs version. I never saw this with previous versions of the Oxygen OS.
I can live with it for now, but I'm hoping it gets fixed in the next update.
I had the same Issue.
Clean flashing the Rom, and then flashing the kernel again made it better for me, but still not good.
In the end, giving my phone priority in the Router/modem fixed the Issue completely for me.
If u have access to your Routers interface you should try that
