Recently i had my belkin 600DB take a dump, it no longer wnats to recieve an ip from my modem so last night i went out to wally world (WalMart) and picked myself up a Netgear WNDR3700 and went home to set it up. It took me two hours to get it setup and wifi working. I start connecting all my Android, Computers, Media Players, and iDevices i notice they're all having trouble actually using the internet. So now im probably going to take that one back and now i'm on the hunt for a router that works. it seemed like a good high end router, maybe its a lemon. So what do you guys use to connect all your devices. I have 9 devices with 3-5 or in use at a time. 2PC,1PS3,4Phones,1XBOX360,1Tablet.1Roku. Im with time warner cable and pay for a 15/1 connection but usually get 20/1 (im the only person in my neighborhood with time warner so i guess they let me use a little bit more) Im looking to spend no more than 100 unless its a big upgrade. Thanks for all your help. Hope this fits in this section.
I had the ADSL modem/router equivalent and despite the criticism and high price I never had major problems with it. Sometimes more expensive does not mean better. Nevertheless, I would entertain getting an 802.11ac Asus (instead of Netgear) router (RT-AC66U) even if no device uses the protocol yet, but that's just me jumping prematurely into any new geek toy. I guess your issues might not have something to do with the router.
Asus makes good routers it seems.

Depends on your price range for what you paid at wal-mart you can get a Better higher end Linksys E4200 cheaper on say Amazon.
I have a Linksys WRT310N Wireless-N Gigabit Router and it works great for me.
We have two desktop computers, two laptops, one netbook, two tablets (one ipad, one surface), four iphones (3g,2x4,4s), one nintendo wii, two xbox 360s, one apple tv, and a tv with wifi built-in.
Works pretty good, runs a little hot but no major problems over the years, so I say it's worth the $50.
Here's a speedtest.net result, no slow downs.

@OP
What is your ISP (Sat, Cable, DSL, UVerse)?
What is your modem model?
What speed plan are you subscribed to?
I see nothing but praise for the RT-N66U. I've been using a Dir-655 since release, it's about 50$ now but it's a solid router. It had major issues with it's firmware for the first two or three years, but it's stable now.
The RT-N66U is better, and (hopefully more futureproof), but it'll run you around 160$. The Dir-655 is a good router too, older, not as futurepoof, it'll run you around 50$.
EA6500 Wireless speedtest
I picked up the RT-N16 a few years ago, and it still works well. I'll also throw my vote in for the RT-N66U if it's within your price range.
Whatever you end up buying, I would also highly recommend flashing a custom firmware for better stability and more features. I ran DD-WRT for a very long time on a few old WRT54G routers (apparently, they still sell those!), but I think that Tomato has matured in recent years and has a much cleaner interface anyway. I've been running Toastman builds of Tomato for a while now, and I'm pretty satisfied with the results.

Have you tried using DD-WRT on your WNDR3700?
I'm using the DD-WRT v24-sp2 (10/06/12) std (SVN revision 20086) build, and it works without flaw for me!

I can't get my iPad to tether properly with any of the newer 2.1 ROM's. Fresh 2.0d even says it uses the older 1.6 WTFRU .apk but it just doesn't want to pass traffic. The connection comes up every time no problem but data does not flow. Of course it's an iPad so there are no troubleshooting tools. Anyone else seen this and or know how to fix it. Right now it works fine on Fresh 1.1 but not on any of the newer ROM's.....?

Actually, there is a USB port within the dock port. As to whether the iPad supports networking over USB (doubt it) is another mater.
On the mater of WiFi Tethering, I've been unsuccessful is getting it to work at all in 2.1. I suspect we need to wait for an official update. The 2.1 beta for the Nexus doesn't work either.
Seriously?

Hmmm.... It worked for me out of the box (running Regaw 2.0.2 or something).
Heh. I'm on fresh 2.0d and have had no problems wirelessly tethering my iPad. I'm using wireless tether version 1.60 as well. I'm not sure why mine would work and yours doesn't...
What version of wireless tether are you using? Uninstall and try a different version if you can't connect. Download all versions here.

I forget which version the damage ROM had but I tried downgrading to 1.6 and that still did not work. I just restored to Fresh 1.1 and that has 1.6 which works in that ROM but not the other ROM. I've tried swapping ROM's multiple times pretty much the same results. I will try to fiddle with some other versions of WTFRU again and see.
After you connect it to your iPad hold down end button turn Mobile network off and then turn it right back on and it should work I have to do this every time I connect to anything

O they already have Google it just haven't released it yet they either waiting on 3g version to get released so it isn't patched or for OS 4.0 hay I can wait just gonna b super limited on the lil p.o.s till its released
Hey danknee.....
you should change the sig....something like this:

Hey, can somebody post a screen with their top speed (wifi) from their phone? I'm curious what real-world performance is between the "42mbps" radios is.
Ps-my home internet is rated at 18meg, so with devices connected, this is probably most of the pipe.

How can you have a WiFI speed test .
Its dependant upon the speed of the users connection and those are many and varied 3meg can be a good connection for some .
Mine is within about 1% next to the router but drops the further i move away .

Not a flame, but what are you talking about?
Wi-Fi has nothing to do with what the "42mbps" radio is. That is HSPA+, and is not in use when Wi-Fi is connected. And it is totally dependent on your carrier, and their APN.
On AT&T, H+ can be different depending on which APN you are on - either "wap.cingular", "phone", or "pta".
If you are connected to Wi-Fi, your speed will be totally dependent on your Wi-Fi connection's speed, and will have nothing to do with the HSPA+ radio or your carrier.
Processor? What I know is this - my Sensation can't pull these numbers over WiFi. I realize that it's not the best test, because it is not cell data. However, I wanted to see what kind of throughput my phone is capable of, and how an S2 does. And yeah, internet speeds differ, but somebody out there has an S2 and WiFi as fast as mine. I suppose my curiosity is more toward "does it utilize it fully" more than "I live by a tower and my cell speed is X" - which seems far more arbitrary to me.

No offense, but this is worse than arbitrary. You have no way of knowing if someone else's Wi-Fi is the same speed as yours, which already makes this "test" invalid.
If you want to know a true comparison between S2 Wi-Fi performance vs Amaze Wi-Fi performance, you'll need the two phones side-by-side hooked up to the same Wi-Fi.
My s2 pulls from 10Mb to 24Mb
Connection is 50Mb

Quick question to the pro's
Whilst I haven't put a SIM card in my lovely new N4 yet (awaiting mico SIM from Vodafone) I thought I would set it up over WiFi.
I can connect to my router, home network and home server fine, but it is just sooooo slow and continually timesout. I have changed the settings, frequencies etc, restored router to factory settings and back to saved profile, but nothing seems to help.
Play store spits me out, and I have reset the N4 to factory 3 times now.
I will try on other Wifi networks over the weekend, and on mobile data when SIM card arrives, but was just wondering if I am doing something obvious wrong or it other have have similar experiences?
thanks
edit.......I did manage to do a system update, and now on 4.2.1
In my experience it is really fast. I get 30mbps down, as fast as I get on my desktop.

Hi. So I just got my Nexus 7 2013 version yesterday and I like it so far. But the things is, the Wi-Fi throughput speed I'm getting is much slower than my OG Nexus 7 (I usually get 10Mbps down, but on my new one it's down to 2-3Mbps). My router is the ASUS RT-AC66R with updated firmware, set to Wi-Fi N only. I tried resetting my N7 to the factory condition and still getting slower speed than my OG N7, disconnected all the wi-fi devices except it and I still get 2Mbps (I have a CIR from Comcast for 30mbps) Should I exchange this one for another one?

Doing a bandwidth test over your ISP will be bottlenecked by your ISP's connection. You really need to test by doing a local file transfer over your network.

I've been having some issues with Wi-Fi, that as others have described manifest specifically when your hand is holding the device at the bottom in portrait mode (ie. Near the stylus).
My solution has been to hold the device "upside-down". Fortunately the shield tablet let's you have 180 degree rotation. Now that I use that as my default portrait orientation, i'm becoming more used to it. Additionally, the charging port is on the bottom, which I prefer. The button location I'm still getting used to, but I can deal.
Just wanted to share this simple change that for me has made this awesome tablet much more functional.
Heh, I've been doing this as well. No particular problems with WiFi here per se, but doing this I get better signal strength which offends my OCD less.
Oh please, that is not a solution at all. It's a ghetto ass workaround.
Just wait until you accidentally hold the tablet "the wrong way" after switching from landscape mode. It's totally ridiculous that you have to pay attention to what orientation you hold it, and actually have to hold the thing upside down to get it to work at all.
This tablet is total garbage that was never even tested. Companies that push this garbage on you don't deserve for users to put up with half assed workarounds. They deserve to have every single sale returned for a refund.
This tablet is a corvette motor inside a Ford pinto. But it's still just a powerful piece of crap that self destructs.
Seattle truth, This community, in the many years I have followed it, is generally polite and helpful. Your comment is the opposite of that. I wanted to share something that maybe is obvious or simple, but nonetheless effective for my needs.

I've never has any Wi-Fi issues related to the connection once I'm connected.. The issue with the Wi-Fi had to do with the k1 chip set and how it sleeps. I don't know what these guys are talking about with having signal issues while using it. I get great Wi-Fi signal on this tablet.

Hm, just got my Shield Tablet. Yes, I have inconsistent Wi-Fi connection.
I haven't changed my router for quite some time and used it with Nexus 7, Note 8, Samsung Note 10.1 and iPad Air - no problem.
It's got to be this tablet, or a batch of it given some are not having this problem.
I have the same issues with mine and yes, the router connects to ALL my other devices fine. I go into the play store and I also can't watch the video up top for the app preview. Youtube app works fine. I have tried everything and even put the tablet to Static. I have had alot of tablets and this is the first one I am having this much problems with. I hope there is an update soon or at least a normal fix.
Thanks bro! This does work great! :thumbup:

Fixed it real quick by returning to Best Buy. Weak wifi on a wifi centric device IMO is asinine and holding upside down does not fix all of the issue. Silly to have to do as well.
My 3DS has stronger 2.4 wifi. That is beyond sad. Also have the Shield 1 that has much better wifi.
The crack issue and 95C core temp also is a concern. The device has a hotter running chip the Shield 1, but no ventilation or fan.
I posted this in the Nvidia forum as well.
I've tested the wifi on my tablet in a bunch of different ways using ookla speed test and general chrome browsing. I have come to pretty much the same conclusion most people in here have. The wifi is weaker than most other wifi devices but this will not be noticed in an ideal wifi setup. For folks with less than ideal wifi setups, they are affected more.
There are a few caveats to my test: I am not using gamestream, so I can not comment on that. And I have such low wifi speed from my ISP (30mbps), that I can not test 5ghz top download speeds vs 2.4ghz top download speeds (because they both easily top out at 30mbps).
I want to go over the things that have improved my wifi performance.
1: Switching to 2.4ghz wifi. This has made the biggest difference for me. Paul Deemer was saying that not using 5ghz wifi is the best for the ST and I agree. I will switch to 5ghz when I gamestream and switch it back to 2.4ghz when I'm done gamestreaming (when I finally get my gaming PC back next month).
If you do need to use 5ghz wifi, see below for other improvements.
2: Using a wifi analyzer app to set my wifi channels up. My apple router is supposed to do this automatically, but when I used the wifi analyzer app I noticed that my channels were crowded.
I set my 2.4ghz wifi channel to an empty channel and I got a full bar more wifi strength in my living room. I set my 5ghz wifi to the highest channel I possibly could (I think 160) and I got a full bar more wifi strength in my living room as well.
3: Avoiding the wifi antenna. This only affects 5ghz wifi for me. When I use 2.4ghz this issue goes away.
http://youtu.be/7v3AR6gZNYQ
4: Using a cover. The cover seems to keep you hand from interfering with the wifi antenna. This is not a total fix, but it does help. Just like in this video at 6:30.
Wifi Death Grip Samsung Galaxy S4 Workaround: http://youtu.be/ySIUuMAvduM
5: Moving your router. If you're having wifi issues you could always try moving your router. I will be moving my router to my living room where I eventually will be gamestreaming.
All of this stuff has been talked about before in this thread and others. I just hope to help anyone out who is still having wifi issues.
I use Netspot app to analyze my Wi-Fi Coverage. You need just a few clicks to load your home plan or area map and start a network site survey
