My u8800 has a pretty unstable wifi. It looses the conection several times during connection. This is particurlarly annoyng when using the phone as a powerpoint remote over wifi and the conection breaks. Is there a death-grip on it? Or is it a software bug?

I read about Blade Wifi Fix so installed today from market. I haven't been home much so not sure how it's going. It might be worth a look. Let us know if you try it.

Hello !
Well depending on what rom, if your using B133 which is possible. I recommend you upgrade to either B136 or B160 which doesn't do this.
Didnt find any wifi fix for blade in marked? Can you giive me a link?

I've updated to B136 and still have pretty awful wifi, disconnects all the time and doesn't reconnect despite my connection being remembered. Usually displays as 'disabled' when I check the settings.
I'm thinking of getting another handset it's so bad

I tried to setup 802.11n only for my wireless router at home. It's very stable and never breaks. I once setup 802.11g only, i experienced disconnection about twice an hour.

Yes, I'd been thinking that it might actually be more to do with my router as it's an old Netgear DG834v2. Will have a play this evening
Cannot connect to Wifi hidden SSID!
Hi there!
Huawei X5 - U8800
Android ver. 2.2.1
Kernel ver. 2.6.32.9-per
[email protected]#1
Build: B160
There is no chance to connect to Wifi hidden SSID!
I tried with previous builds also (B136).
EAP method: PEAP auth
Phase 2 auth: MSCHAPV2
Anyone knows this problem yet?
Any solutions?
Brgds,
S.
Unhide the SSID... If is the Desire HD there is an "issue" with froyo + Hidden SSID's... found out after having 3 days of the same problem, did some digging and found it doesn't like the Hidden SSID.
The other option is using a program like WiFi Connector which forces a connection to a Hidden SSID, not tried it myself but apparently is works.
Thanks for the info. I cannot "unhide" it because it is a company hidden SSID
I will try this Wifi Connector ...but i tried some other apps before without success
Any other thoughts ?
Brgds,
S.
Unfortunately it doesn't work either with Wifi connector
Any known custom ROM with this bug fixed?

Yes, I guess you'd better upgrade your wireless router coz 802.11n is way better in terms of stability and signal strength.

I personally don't think this is a bug indeed. It comes to the same problem for some USB wireless clients in the market.
I suggest that you can solve this problem by choosing "Add Wi-Fi Netword" manually. This option is at the bottom of the list. After pressing it, you'll be asked to input the SSID as well as the encryption (WEP, WPA2, ... etc). Provided that you input them correctly, you should be able to connect to that specific SSID.
Hi there!
I know how to mannualy add SSID and enc. settings... it's not problem in setting tough but in software version of Android i guess. When i set Phase 2 Auth to: MSCHAPv2 or whatever ... after i am getting back into settings Phase 2 Auth is set back to: NONE
I'am stuck ...
I guess you need to ask your IT colleagues if they have enforced additional security in their wifi setup like MAC address allow list and limited DHCP.

Hello. I'm new to xda. I have problem with my Xperia X10i. When I try connect to a wi-fi network it take forever to get its ip adreses and i don't know if it succeeds or not because after that is say's connected with limited connectivity. I have searched the web and xda but nobody has a solution to this problem. I am running Android 2.3.3 updated through SEUS. Not rooted or anything. What can I do?
I had the same problem, so I feel your pain. Go into android market search wifi fix..if the app doesn't solve the problem,reset the router. Hope this helps.

The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 10 characters.
the only issue i am having with wifi sense ive had this phone has been connecting to linksys wireless N routers. i have turned off N functionality of the router using b/g only but all the phone does is alternation between "scanning/disconnected" doesnt try to obtain IP address or anything. its only those routers i have issues with. belkin wireless N works fine (with N turned off of course)
I had a similar problem, I solved it with wifi fix, thanks.
If you updated your x10 through the SEUS...its probably problem on your wifi router..try to reset settings and power off your router..

Okay, so I'm trying to help a guy with his Xperia X10a. He doesn't have wifi working and does not a have an account for the phone so no 3G. He needs to download wifi fix, can he just download it on his computer and then tether it and sideload?
1.make sure that ur access point has internet access.
2.if there's no server then ask ur ISP about static IP & gateway
3.if there's a server..then ask if u can get a static IP
4.also try "forget" then reconnect and if the wifi with a password then it might be wrong
don't connect ur modem in bridge mode.......
Still not working
I have tried the wi-fi fix app and nothing changed. I have found a temporary solution in witch you use static ip on your phone. But this solution is just for home because in a pub or any free hotspot it still doesn't work. Now I have flashed CM7 to my x10 and the wi-fi seems to work a little bit better but not perfect. And the wi-fi range is also poor on X10 compared to a Iphone 3GS or even a Optimus Black.

Orginally yes poor range..don't compare to a s60 nokia phone
i think problem is your wi fi modem , try to setting your modem again ,
Go to setting >Wireless > Security
and
Select SSID: Modem Name
Network Authentication: Open
WEP Encryption: Enabled
Encryption Strength: 128
Current Network Key: 1 ( up to you )
Network Key 1: xxxxxxxx ( 13 characters ) and try again to connect
I'm hopeless here. I have a paid VPN service, and it works perfectly with my PC, with my mobile on Wi-Fi and with my friend's mobile also on 3G, but not on mine. For sure there's something wrong with my device. I tried hard reset, different ROMS and all different servers and settings.
It does connect to the VPN and it keeps up the connection, but internet just doesn't work. Anyone have any idea why this is happening? I tried to search other threads about this, but no success.
Thanks

vpn thrue 3g and mobile connection
hi
reason, routing.
1. you have to setup your vpn connection to route any data between your vnp-connection.
or
2. you use another apn who route unsecured and secured data to different routes.
(secured data = VPN, unscured Data => www)
Check the isp apn if it use a stateful paket inspection firewall. this apn can ussually only route secured data (vpn).
Its no bug its a feature to solve some problems like too much connections, timeouts, reduction of hacker attack surface, and more..
you can find this information in the special vpn-whitepaper from your isp.
i hope this helps you.
How does the go to my p.c. app work?Is it pretty good app. Thanks

When you set up the VPN on your phone, make sure you fill out the forwarding fields as 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 otherwise no traffic will be forwarded through it. Testing on wifi from the same location as the host is a miserable way to test VPN as it tells you nothing. Turn off the wifi, and always test on your mobile data. There ARE carriers out there that WILL filter out VPN connections for normal user accounts and require you sign up under a business-class account to use such connectivity, this is because they want more money from you, and to not give you an easy way to get around their tethering detection. Plus in some countries, you're not allowed to possess the capability to encrypt and secure your own data/traffic and the means of encryption are banned (and therefore filtered "on-the-wire").
Use VPN Service that has open port. Like http://xtreamvpnworld.blogspot.com ive been using it for more than a year. I got no problem.

That's seems odd. Anyway I haven't tried built in vpn, how about openvpn? Have you tried it? I think built in vpn doesn't support voips like viber etc. Or maybe your vpn provider does not. I really don't know. Because I tried using droid and xtream vpn it works on every chatting platforms.

One very irritating "feature" on my note 3 is it's automatic network disconnect when it thinks the internet connection speed is poor. Is there any way to override this automatic disconnect? Particularly since there seems to be a well known bug with the galaxy range wifi network which thinks the connection speed is poor even if there is nothing wrong with the wifi signal or Internet connection speed.
Try this.

Unfortunately the wifi connection dropping issue seems to be highly dependant on your router.
Most people with the problem (including me) solved it with a different/newer router.
If you have spare time you could waste it ticking/unticking boxes in the wifi menu .. & THEN change your router lol

I am having the same issue on a corporate wireless network behind a proxy. It will connect, perform the connection speed test and then disable the network due to the connection speed being slow.
I am able to connect to a WiFi network on a secondary connection which does not go through the proxy. Both connections are on the same network.

Hello !
I still have problems of "connecting/disconnected" wifi after all this time since de new CM wifi driver of march... I don't use a lot of wifi, but it could be good to have access to it sometimes..
I tryed to change change the wifi driver to an old one by flashing a custom .zip like said in some posts, but it didn't work. With the stock motorola room the wifi works very well.
And with CM11 it still have problems.
Has someone an idea ? I don't know what log (or something like that) could be usefull to answer the problem, if someone can tell me what to search it would be good !
Thanks in advance,
Clément
Nobody ?
Are you using static IP or DHCP ?
Sent from my MB526 using xda app-developers app
Yes, I tried static IP or DHCP, when I flash a stock rom it works directly on the first boot, with CM and the new wifi driver it's impossible, it's always "connecting" -> "disconnected".
Something is quite strange : Even when I have 4 wifi bar, when the status switches to "connecting" it falls to one bar. And when it comes back to "disconnected" the full signal reappears...
Quite strange...
Change lease time from router. Also what is the security set to? Should be wpa2 aes
Sent from my MB526 using Tapatalk 4
At home my router is set on WEP (I know, bad idea), and at work, WPA2-AEP PEAP (with login an password).
I tried with no security at home, it's not better...
Lease time?
Sent from my MB526 using Tapatalk 4
No idea.
I can't check it in my office, I'll chek at home, but I still have this problem in static IP, so it should'nt be that, isn't it ?
That's true, static ip should have worked. Disable Wi-Fi optimization from settings and set band to 2.4 only. If you still have a problem I guess it's because of some incompatibility. The driver cannot be easily changed, old Wi-Fi driver was replaced for android/kernel compatibility
Sent from my MB526 using Tapatalk 4
I just tried with another router, WPA PSK, with static IP, still the same problem : "Connecting -> disconnected", etc...
The wifi band was already 2.4Ghz, and wifi optimisation was disabled.
What can I do to solve this compatibility problem ?
Thanks for your answers.
Wpa2? Can't think of something else ATM
You could try with dhcp on newer router, but I'm sure you've done that already

I tried other networks yes, same problem. I'll try to modify the connection timeout, but the problem is seen on any router, so I don't think that it's this... I can't connect to my gopro hero 3 for exemple, it's the think that bother me the most in fact !
This is not a CM issue, so they may not help you. FYI, WPA2 - AES should be used. TKIP caused similar issues for me

So it's impossible to use any router other than WPA2 on the defy with the new driver ?
