WiFi disconnects - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been using a few of the KitKat ROMs (Gummy, AOKP, Vanir) on my vs980 and occasionally my wifi will quit working. It says it is still connected to my router but browsers fail to connect to servers. Also when leaving my car, I turn off BT and turn in Wifi and most of the time I have to reboot to reconnect wifi. I've tried stock kernels and paek5.2 and it doesn't make a difference. Any ideas?

Wifi connectivity issues

I've been having a couple problems lately on connecting to wifi.. well it connects, but I cannot use the internet. It usually only takes powering down the wifi and turning it back on, but it is an annoying issue. This had happened on the stock rooted rom, and on cm. anyone else have or know of this issue and a possible fix?

[Q] Wifi Issues?

After reading a bit it's seems to be a common issue on ICS and later. My device occasionally looses it's wifi connection, at which point I have to go to settings and turn the wifi off and on. Is there a better solution to this problem? My router is using WPA2-PSK and is on channel 7.
Wifi seems to stay on fine here, but I cannot connect to 5ghz, only 2.4ghz. Not sure if this is an issue or if the Wifi chip only supports 2.4 ghz.

it doesnt connect to 5ghz, unless theres a trick to it??? but use wifi analyzer and look for the strongest channel on ur wifi router to fix ur problem
Turn off multimedia support on your router if all else fails

Yea I'm having trouble as well. I have a telus smart hub at home and it is super slow. Then when I use my hotspot on my Gnex from rogers, it runs fine, although this app takes awhile to load.
Tried playing with the settings, only think I couldn't find was the 5ghz and 2ghz.
Try some more playing tomorrow and look for different routers

Can I ask someone with nexus 7 to check if it connects with wifi AD-HOC network without problems?
I use my old LG gt540 as a 3g modem + wifi router, but it works only with ad-hoc. For example my HTC Sensation can't connect to such a network.
edit: NO, it does not connect with AD-HOC

Cell network disconnects when Wifi network is connected

I got this weird problem when I connect to any wifi network, my cell network will disconnect briefly for about 10 seconds ( with a stop sign ), then it will connect back.
Isit only me that is facing this problem? I tried several stock roms and kernel but it is still the same.

I have a AT&T s4 and a lot of the roms are giving me WiFi trouble. The wifi will stay connected but I'll lose internet.
Any ideas?

I've noticed some wifi issues myself, not exactly the same thing though. My wifi disconnects from 5 ghz wireless N constantly so I switched to connecting to my 2.4 Ghz AP.
It still drops out when sitting idle sometimes but not nearly as often.
In settings / wi-fi / advanced their is an option which possibility might help. This is just a guess
check for internet service, try enabling that maybe it will better detect the fact that the internet isn't working in reality, when it thinks it's still connected.
Also, do you have any problems with other wifi devices around the AP that your having issues with.
With Wifi the AP is often just as suspect as the client, checking for router firmware updates can sometimes help too.
All my other Wi-Fi devices are fine

Are you only having problems with a specific wireless router? Do you have a Dlink by any chance?
Funny I do have a dlink, if I use my Belkin access point it's fine. It's only when I connect directly to dlink.

[Q] 4.3 Losing Data when Disconnecting from WiFi

So I've been trying a few 4.3 ROMs and right now I'm on Beanstalk, but every time I disconnect from WiFi, I lose 3G/4G connectivity unless I go into Airplane mode and even then it sometimes won't reconnect. Any suggestions on how to handle this issue?
