[Q] Can't detect working Wireless N - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My HTC One X can connect to my 5ghz wireless N network just fine, but my Nexus 10 can't even detect it. I was on ParanoidAndroid so I factory reset and flashed back to stock. That didn't solve it either.
Any idea why this is happening? I don't remember if I ever tried connecting to the N network.
Thanks in advance.

Mine connects to a 2.4 wireless N just fine... Never tried connecting to a 5

I have mine connected to a 5ghz wireless N network. Go to your WiFi settings and click the menu and select advanced. Click WiFi frequency band and make sure its set to auto.
Hope this helps.

Also make sure you have the right region selected for your wifi

Check your channels, there was a thread about it a while back.

Thanks for all the suggestions guy. In the end, I think the problem was the router. Apparently the Nexus 10 couldn't connect to certain frequency. I had to test a few and finally found one that the tablet was able to detect. Meanwhile, One X works fine on all.

[Q] Nexus 4 Wi-Fi issues.

First - Hi all, long time reader but this is the first time I've needed to start a thread - so sorry about my first post being a problem/Q!
I've not had my Nexus 4 long, but have got some pretty annoying Wi-Fi issues. I've searched for answers but it seems that people have different Wi-Fi problems and I just wanted to see whether my issue was a common one and, if so, is there a fix on the horizon?
My issue is that I can connect to some routers but not to others (work, home, most open networks)... when I connect it simply says "saved, secured with WPA/WPA2" but wont then connect.
Phones running stock 4.2.1 with franco kernel r28 and the things I have tried are:
Resetting routers
Assigning static IP address
Wi-Fi direct from my Nexus 7
Cleared cache from recovery
changed the Wi-Fi band from 'Auto' to 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz
Flashed new kernel
Very frustrating and because of my signal the lack of Wi-Fi has made me go back to my old phone while I wait for a fix... which connects perfectly to the networks (S3 running CM 10.1)
Is this a 4.2.1 issue - as seems to be the consensus with other Wi-Fi issues or possibly a hardware issue?
Thanks for any info!
There's one fix you've not tried which might work for you (it didn't for me). You would have to be rooted though, which is going to system/etc/dhcpcd and changing the permission on dhcpcd-run-hooks to read and execute from "others". This help some people out but turns out for me that my router isn't compatible with my phone. (DSL-2780).
I've noticed that some of the mobile devices(eg iPhone 3gs, SGS2) are quite sensitive to wireless channel which your router/ap broadcast on.
Try manually switch to channel 6 or 8 that solved my issue - I don't believe in incompatible routers usually problems are related to config.
It is more complicated with an access to the public WiFi as you can not modify the setup.

Just to update.
I've now tried this and still can't connect to the affected Wi-Fi networks, probably going to have to wait for 4.2.2 to see if that fixes it...

I too have wifi issues with my N4. We have several phones at home - an HTC Aria and believe it or not the SGS1, SGS2 and SGS3!
All of them connect with no problems. My brand new N4 will see the router but refuses to connect until I toggle wifi on/of serveral times in succession, sometimes 6-8 times!
I have avoid poor wifi disabled but it does not help
I really hope El Goog fixes this asap as it is very frustrating.
I've had this issue forever. Android phones hate low or overcrowded signal. Though my nexus 7 always works fine. Makes me think it is the lack of WiFi antenna strength

[Q] help wifi won't connect after upgrading to 4.3

Hello,
I'm hoping someone can suggest a fix, yesterday I upgraded to 4.3 using adb. I'm fully stock not rooted. today for some reason it won't connect to my home network. It's a cisco e2500 router and its on the 5ghz band. I tried setting different channels, turned off optimization....

I had immediate problems with Wi-Fi after updating as well, I don't know what the new radio features but it turned out that a firmware update to my router had everything running smooth as butter again, actually better (a lot more reliable–YouTube app actually appears to buffer noticeably less and not break up, for example, downloads also initiate and complete more solidly) than it was under 4.2.2

I'm using an Asus AC66U at home and N66U at my office with no 5ghz connectivity issues.
Here's some things that might help you troubleshoot. Start by disabling the "avoid poor connections" feature in WiFi options. Install inssider or similar WiFi scanner to see if there is interference for your specific router config. Try removing the WiFi connection from your phone and reconfiguring.

Hi,
It's strange I have a similar problem. After upgrading to 4.3 my 5ghz connection came to a crawl. We are talking about 1.2-1.6 Mbps. But the 2.4 ghz was fine (35 Mpbs). Once I downgraded, re-writing the "radio" file, then the 5ghz connect was blazing fast again (50 Mbps). I'm convinced this has to do with the "radio" update, but I'm not sure what exactly.
Any suggestions? Currently I'm back on 4.2.2 as wifi speeds (PA rom) make more sense right now.
Thanks in advance!

I tried all of the above, every combination, reset my router, there are no other 5ghz overlapping networks, at this point it is something to do with my install. I wonder if a factory wipe would help...
That's my exact setup (E2500' did you set the Wi-Fi frequency band to 5GHz only on the N4 and give the band a different SSID from the 2.4 GHz network?)! Try forgetting the current connection and setting it up again.

If it were the radio software specifically, then logically 5ghz would be broken for everybody, which is not the case. Perhaps the issue is device data specific... There has to be a better solution than staying on 4.2.2.

I have with wifi problems too, but with 4.3 and 4.2.2 version. At home everything works fine, but at work phone connect to router, but no Internet (internet work only 1-2s). Other devises with this router works fine!
I have even a different issue. The phone is stuck at Obtaining IP Adress every time now. I downgraded to 4.2.2 and it's still doing the same thing. It does work if connected to a different router, but not to my main one. I haven't changed any router settings either.

I had the same issue before 4.3 update. It was working fine after the update but today it happened again. I switched to static ip in my nexus wifi settings and its working fine. So i guess DHCP has the problem and im blaming nexus because everything else in the same network works fine.

I have the same problem with my old generation nexus 7. New one works just fine, galaxy nexus - just fine, xperia s - also fine, macbook pro - fine. I can't blame the network. Something is messed up. I tried a factory reset (as I'm selling this one) and it didn't help. also after quite some time of trying it wrote "Avoided poor connection" under the name of my network, but I can't alter the "Avoid poor connections setting" from the setup wizard.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I think the problem is DHCP too. I used to use WPA2 for my LAN. My Nexus 4 appears to not connect to those networks anymore.

Tried to set a static IP address? And you could also playing with the WiFi frequency bands. Some reported they can't connect to WiFi on 5 GHz band. Could try the 2.4 GHz one instead.
In cases of weak signal, DHCP may fail when connecting. If this happens, move closer to the AP (stronger signal).
If you have 2 routers and use 1 as an access point, use the LAN (not WAN) port on the second router and disable the DHCP server on the same router. You can use the same SSID and float between them if the other settings match (encryption and password). Use 2 different channels as far apart as possible (like 1 and 11). On 2.4 GHz, only use channels 1 to 11. On 5 GHz, only use 36, 40, 44, 48, 149, 153, 157, 161, or 165. The other channels have FCC limitations in the US. Use WPA-2 only with CCMP (AES) encryption. WPA should only be used with TKIP, while WPA-2 should only be used with CCPM (AES). I have seen a lot of issues when mixed is used.
Hope this helps...
Thanks for the suggestions. While testing I was standing just beside my router, so no weak signal problem. What I did after many tries to connect was reinstall stock 4.3 but version which ended with the letter 'V'. I was unable to see my problematic android build version, because I was stuck at welcome screen. So the reinstall fixed it.

5 ghz WiFi no Longer works 4.3?

I just setup a 5.0 ghz wifi router today. My nexus 4 doesn't seem to be able to connect to it now that I am running 4.3. I can see the ssid. I type in my password WPA2 and it reports saved under the network ssid. However no matter how many times I tap it, it never actually connects. I tried everything from restarting to flashing 4.3 again. Nothing helps.
I read several threads and reports about people experiencing slow speeds on 5 ghz after the 4.3 update but no one seems to mention not being able to connect at all. Some posts suggested that it works for them if they remove their router's password but I don't want to do that. I'm wondering if anyone has been able to use WPA2 and be on 4.3 successfully.
It's not a network or router issue. The router works perfectly with every other 5 ghz device that I have.
try changing the channel on the 5Ghz network, as some phones/tablets are quite fussy about what channel they work on!

This just started happening to me as well. I was away from my normal WiFi networks for a couple weeks and also updated to 4.3 and had to reboot the phone once or twice. Now I can't connect to any 5 GHz networks. I've tried 3 different networks that were all set up on my phone previously. I've tried "forgetting" them, turning off WiFi and then turning it back on, rebooting the phone, no difference.
On some networks, my phone doesn't see the 5 GHz band at all and on others it shows up until I try to connect; then it disappears.
Android 4.3 just seems to be another piss-poor update in a tremendous string of crappy software "upgrades" for me: Win8, Intel Centrino 6235, Google Maps, Hangouts. Quite the string of bad luck. It's like the world is telling me I need to buy Apple...
Drop the channel down to 36. All shall work then. This issue is in the note 2 and note 8

Same boat. Tried low and high channels. It does see it. CM10.2.
In my case I do not see 5 ghz network at all. I set it to be on chanell 44 (20 Mhz), no security - still the same issue.
Also I realized, that even if in Wifi Advanced setting I set "5 ghz only" I still see 2.4 chanells.
I am running latest stock 4.3, no root.
4.2.2 same config worked ok.

I did some more tests, and I found that immediate after reboot, I can see my 5Ghz network AP, even connect to it.
However, after few hours it was inaccessible. Also, nerveless what I do, if I select to use only 5Ghz band I still see 2.4Ghz AP's. No idea why.
Both my N4 and my N7 (2013) won't connect to my router when it is using WPA encryption. My N10 is fine though. I have had to lower encryption on one frequency band to WEP - which I'd rather not do, but it is the only way I could get it to connect.
It seems sensitive to brands of router, as both devices connect to my work network fine and that also uses WPA encryption.
My home router is a TP-Link Archer C7.

Hi,
I have this issue logged with Google at the moment regarding the 5Ghz issue. They are fully aware of it and say numerous customers have been affected - their original solution to me was to downgrade to 4.2 and lose my warranty. When I said won't do that they offered RMA which 2 weeks later I'm still waiting for them to sort.
According to Google just because other devices work on 5Ghz doesn't mean the Nexus 4 will, so I can't how they can sell it stating it works with 5Ghz when it doesn't.
Also have post here
update: received my replacement phone on 21/09/13 and this is running 4.2.2 and connects to my 5Ghz without any issues - done a side-by-side video of the faulty phone running 4.3.3 and sent this to Google - I have told them it was working fine before update

[Q] Wifi won't stay connected.

Is anyone else having issues with Wifi not staying connected? For example, it'll keep dropping out from my router every 3 minutes or so. When it drops out, the 3G will enable for a few seconds but then it will connect back to the router.

Are you rooted? Have you done any mods? Perhaps you should check the advanced settings in the WiFi option
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda premium
Hi,
No I'm not rooted. No mods at all. 100% stock firmware. I have checked the Advanced Wifi options but can't see anything wrong.
Just to mention, I did at first think it might have been a fault with the phone so I got the phone swapped out with another brand new device however the problem still persists.
I have a similar problem on a i9505 running the latest CM 10.2 nightly.
Some 2.4GHz networks are fine, others behave as you describe.
The one 5GHz network to which I have access has recently started to misbehave; the phone connects properly and works for about 2 minutes, after which I lose all connectivity (I can't even ping the router) yet the wifi indicator remains blue. Turning wifi off and on again gives me another 2 minutes. This goes on until I give up and switch to 2.4GHz.
Of course, I have no idea what is causing this. I've tried various channels on the router, as well as rebooting it.
Does this happen to all routers (I assume you use other routers somewhere else), or it just happen to this router only? Is this case, you may want to check the router itself.

Ni !^^ what us Your Android version ans MoDem actually? If you have that it s probable due to that i think..
Or maybe Your are a doesntt support Very well Your fréquences for match Your mobile?
Have you try to make a Fullwipe? For put tint everything restant as when you have buy it?
You will be on a custom rom with ni mldem update i dont say but chère..
WiFi still disconnecting even on 3rd device...
Wiping /system and flashing a newer nightly fixed the 2.4 GHz problem, but 5GHz is still dodgy. It's not the (Netgear) router as I have a couple of other Cyanogenmod devices which operate without any problem.
Perhaps I should start another thread as this may well be something different from what is affecting the op's device.
