i am having a problem that with my g2 its not connecting to wifi no matter i do... its saying that my router is out of range even though i am in the same room.. i have tried other roms and it does work... but i would rather have it on stock rom with wifi working... any suggestions.
I have this problem since I replaced the display. Mine connects to WiFi router but the WiFi range is really poor, before replacing the display my g2 connected even if I was outside my house, now it doesn't connect in the external rooms of the house.
Hope someone will reply to your questions.

Hello everyone,
Recently I upgraded to the 3.1OS and after that I have been having some problems connecting to wifi networks.
I was at my parents house this weekend for fathers day and tried to connect to the network. Every time I connected it would bring the whole network down. On my tablet it would connect, then the signal would go "out of range" and when I looked at my phone I noticed it was back on 3g. After several attempts I determined it was my tablet that brought down the network.
I had been previously been able to connect using the 3.0 OS.
The network provider is Fios.
My tablet is unrooted
Any suggestions or ideas?
Hi, I am experiencing the same problem with 3.0.1 the wifi connection was working just fine. After I upgraded to 3.1 I am loosing signal, the strenght of the signal is much much lower as it used to be.
What I read in 3.1 they downgraded the wifi driver, maybe this is the reason.
T.
Is it possible to check any logs on your router (if it supports it) and see what exactly happened..
It is not about the router, my PC or my Desire get full strength signal. Even with EEE pad before update to 3.1 I had no wifi drops.
So form my point of view the driver is the issue.
There was some mention of people having issues with the non-NA supported channels like 13 and 14. Are you guys using these?
workaround
While not an answer to your specific problem, you could use the wifi on you phone and then tether your Transformer to it...that way you wouldnt be using up the 3G from your phone , still using the wifi technically..
Just an idea to get around your problem...
Was using channel 11, then I found out a lot of other routers are using 11 also.
So i switched to 9. Helped a little bit, but still not optimal.
Let`s see how it evolves. :-D

I just opened my new phone and am trying to get it set up but it will not connect to wifi. It sees all the networks around but it keeps cycling through trying to connect and never gets past the acquiring IP stage. I have tried two different routers and deleted, reentered, and turned the wifi off and on many times. My other phone and all my other devices work just fine on my network. Anyone know of anything else I can try? It was a major hassle to get this phone and I would hate to have to go through a RMA the same day I get it. Thanks
Had the same problem and had to configurate with the inet of sim card. Nexus 4 has some problems with some routers, i couldnt connect my nexus to the router and had to chsnge configuration from router, once connected it was fricking slow. i decided to buy belkin WiFi amplifier and ive connected it to the router. Now it works great, do some research on inet and see if that router is having trouble with n4.
Dont RMA, all have this "issue"

Stock Android does not support WiFi direct. It uses bluetooth to transfer. I would try the Superbeam app (You have to install it on both phones). Are your other phones working on the 5GHz WiFi band? If so, what channel is your router broadcasting at? Some people have issues with the Nexus 4 not connecting to bands 12 and 13 (if my memory is correct), but not all (My 211k Nexus is fine). Are you running stock? If not, what ROM and kernel are you running? Have you tried to disable WiFi optimization (Settings>WiFi>Menu button>Advanced>WiFi Optimization)?

I recently moved to another location and found out Nexus having hard time to connect to Google through Wifi(grey wifi bar appears often). Surfing internet is also dramatically slower than before. I do not know if it is Google I/O related issue (namely software issue) or router (namely hardware issue)?
All my PCs and another Samsung Android phone work fine with the new router. What's happening?
Hi all,
Been using my GT-i9505 for a while now completely fine. Used WiFi fine etc. However I've moved back to uni where I don't get WiFi and so I use connectify via my laptop and a wired connection to transmit a WiFi signal. I've used this for a few months perfectly fine for my iPhone and tablet (transformer infinity).
The issue that arises is that my gs4 connects fine and stats connected no issues. The data arrows flash orange and green but the data seems to stop working.
Best example is whatsapp which will not send messages or at best has a huge delay.
I rectified this by turning off Wi-Fi power save which fixed the issue but is bit really a fix SD this literally ate battery like nothing else. So wondered if there is s fix or anything I can do phone or computer side to fix this?

Hey guys
I have my Oppo Find 5 X909 and even though I am very happy with it there is one weird problem that I'm facing. When I connected my phone to Wi-Fi it connected to the router via the Wi-Fi repeater and it worked perfectly. But then one day the repeater was turned off and i connected directly to the router and even though it showed me that it connected succesfully I couldn't do anything that required internet. For instance i tried surfing the web with my Chrome app and it showed me a DNS problem which is weird because all the other devices in the house work just fine whether they're connected directly to the router or via the repeater. I tried restarting the router and making the phone forget the settings and readding them with no results.
I checked the official Oppo Find 5 forum and found that noone else was facing with such a problem and I have no idea where to look for the answers. I would really appreciate it if anyone could help me with the problem.
PS: my phone is running the latest Color ROM international build but I noticed the problem also on the newest official international ROM. Also the phone is unrooted
No such problem for me. I'm on latest Color ROM as well :-/

For some reason updating the router firmware fixed the problem. Thank you for the reply nonetheless

I'm having the same problem. Also only with one AP in my network. When the problem appears, no other device can access the internet through this AP. Sometimes even my wired PCs can't get access to the network.
My workaround is to try to always connect to my other AP.
I'm on CM 10.1 Nightlies. The AP is a Linksys WAP610N
