Hi everyone.
I own a Xiaomi Note 3g and it's awesome.
His problem, however, is the wifi.
I connect to the home router (d-link 2740r v.1_00 b1) and everything is ok.
But after one or two minutes the connection slows almost to 0 although I am still connected perfectly.
I also set the router with the best channel and also with the key wep but nothing changes!
How can I do? Sorry for my English!
It 'a shame because it is the only fault of this great phone!

Hi,
I've just got my MDA PRO: so far I love it and hate it.
Its works ok in gprs and 3g mode. The wifi has worked for 3 occassions, it never connects properly after it is switched back on again. Now I can't get a stable connection at all.
I have a standard 802.11b access point. It has proved to be very reliable in the 3 years I have had it. Everything can connect to it, bar the MDA PRO.
I have tried setting the AP to 1-13. Doesn't make any difference.
I have used 128bit bit and no WEP.
The AP is 1m (3 feet) away, so no problems with a weak signal.
The firmware is standard, see below for version.
I have done soft and hard resets.
For me wifi is essential.
Can any one help ? I have tried to collect some of the other ROMs from the ftp server, but most don't seem to be available.

You should update your radio rom. I am using the MDA Pro with my Wifi router (WEP enabled). No issues at all.
What Radio ROM are you suggesting?
I too have problems with wifi and my belkin when set with 128bit encryption.
It works fine on my mates Belkin with no security.
Frustrating YES!
found solution
I've fixed my wireless problem - my old wireless router is failing, I found my laptop was dropping the connection too. So I went and bought a new Linksys WRT54GS. Very happy with it, works with all my wifi gadgets with significantly better signal strength too. I've got it working in WEP, b & g mode.
Hi all,
I just got my device, and still thinking whether to send it back in 7 days. My main complain is the wifi. I have never seen more than 2 bars (out of 4) signal strength, even when sitting 2 meters from the router. Moreover it always drops the connection. I realized it when I tried to use IE for browsing, since that doesn't tolerate it and I keep getting the connection lost messages. Seems that Opera can live with it, but I see when the connection dropped during the page load. Youtube watcher also cannot manage to download videos when the signal is dropped.
The Tx/Rx rate also changes chaotically from 1Mb/1Mb to 54Mb/36Mb.
Before you ask: the Power Mode of wifi is set to "Best Performance", since this is the only way it is usable.
Anybody else with similar experiences?
Any solution?
I really appreciate any help, I would like to keep it!
I have no problems what-so-ever with the wifi on my D2...
It runs very well, in all applications that can use it.
- and I have full signal when I am within 5 meters of the router.
I haven't changed any settings on the device, and the router is running on WPA2-PSK at a channel not used by any of my neighbours.
Maybe you have many wireless networks in your area?
Hi,
I have more or less your problems (I opened a thead about it the day I unpacked my D2 but wasn't really condiderated). Here's my condition: I have 3 HTC devices...Artemis-->regular functioning (balanced power), TytnII-->Power Performance MUST be set to high performance, Topaz..well I could connect with balanced power but since I upgraded radio I have to keep it set to best performance, otherwise I would get "fake" connections (connection established but no data taffic). I don't really bother to have to set it like that because the connection is dam fast, which compensates the higher power consumpion.But beside this, I must say that my router is not very friendly with my D2,e.g. when I don't get a connection,I restart it and it works (this must have to do with DCHP service). I have much less trouble connecting alsewhere. So ,what to say? Try to change radio...Do you have other wireless devices working regularly in the same area?Do you have an original rom?You could also try to change wifi channel..would be happy to help
Hi,
Thank you for the answer. I have original ROM, just checked the radio, it is: 3.43.25.19. I didn't experience "fake connections" when it is connected, it is so .
I cannot change the wifi channel, the same router is used by others. However it cannot be the cause of my issues since my notebook's network works fine on the same router.
Changing the radio... seems a good idea. It is my very first smart device, I even thought that this version number was for the hardware, not the software . I will find out how to do it, maybe give it a try. Hope it is an officially supported action .
Hi Lamsebamsen,
The TD2 sees 4 wifi networks, my notebook sees 8. Is it many or not? I think the 4 which the TD doesn't see is many .

I'm afraid not, as you would have to HardSPL your device first. There would still a way to get back to your original configuration but I don't know if you are prone to do so, that depends on how much responsability you can take on your device (is it from work or..). Another thing to try is to manually configurate your connection (e.g. assign D2 always the same IP, but watchout for network collisions!router should be set aswell)
Not sure if im the only one but every so often my tab does not connect to my home wifi, it does connect to my vibrant via tether no problem. Now i have had this issue a few other times and the only solution i can come up with is to do a factory reset, once i do that i have to set up the connection then im up and running. Does anyone have the same issue? Any suggestions? Dont want to keep reseting the tab just to get a working connection.

Flash your router with dd-wrt up the default signal strength footprint

i dont think its anything to do with the router as i am able to connect my Vibrant and my laptop via wifi and no issues, but with my tab sometimes it just sits there trying try to connect
It is probably your router!
My primary router (WRT300N) connects just fine to my laptop, Wii, HD2 (with winmo) Touch pro II with older android port. But refuses to properly connect the Tab, company laptop (IBM), wife's laptop (Packard Bell), Touch pro II with newer Android ports.
It either does not get a IP or with an IP there is no data transfer.
Connected a WAP54g and all connect just fine!
DD-wrt is not supported for this router (V2), so cannot try that.
Is your ssid hidden? i believe froyo was suppose to able to connect to hidden ssids but try disabling that feature. Change it to wep just to check. I am using wpa2; I haven't had any issues.
Bought myself a new router, and now all can connect just fine.
I have the same problem. It just constantly connects and disconnects. Not sure what to do.
Which is the best router ?
Hello,
i own a TP-Link (TL-WR1043ND) Router. My Speed is "only" 65 Mb/s.
Channel 13

Which is the best and fastest router for the galaxy tab?

Hi,
I have the same problem here, connection gone after a few mins, Wifi shows still connected although I can't access the net.
Contacted Samsung in the UK and they have asked me to return my Tab to them for repair!
Just a shot in the dark, but maybe useful. Some programs like Locale scan WiFi periodically for location info. It drove me nuts isolating the problem when the WiFi tether on my Droid would stop working after 5-10 minutes (random time but constant, because of when in Locale's scan cycle I started the tether). For those that are having problems of being able connect, but then the connection showing on, but seeming dead, that may be the issue. Toggling WiFi off and on reestablishes it, or you could just disable the program doing the scan until you head out to move around again.

The Tab doesn't support 5Ghz 802.11n or MIMO (the tab only has a single antenna) so 72Mbps is the best you can hope for over the 2.4Ghz channel, which you _might_ get if you stand right beside the router.
In most cases, 65Mbps is the best you can expect from any router with the Galaxy tab. Virtually no mobile devices seem to support the 5Ghz spectrum that the "fast" 300Mbps 802.11n requires.
Also, you'll get faster speeds if you change your setting from "bgn mixed" to "n only" and see if the tab still connects.
I often have difficulty connection to my WLAN at home, often I need to turn wifi off & on again a couple of times and leave it for a minute before it eventually connects. I don't think the WiFi in Android is particularly robust.
Hello everyone,
I checked the forums and I haven't seen anything like this, but I'm hope my situation isn't unique.
So I got the Nexus 4 and I love it. I have it linked to my wi-fi at home and the campus wi-fi. Every time I got to the college campus it links just fine. However, when I get to the home wi-fi, it sometimes takes a while for the phone to connect to the wi-fi, or say that the wi-fi is out of range.... even when standing next to the router.
I've tried rebooting the router, rebooting the phone. When it connects it's awesome. Sometimes I have to turn off the wi-fi on the N4 then back on again for it to connect.
Does anyone know what this may be? Anything would be great help.
P.S. - everything else works on my wi-fi just fine. A couple Rokus, a notebook, and etc.
Thank you

Nexus 4 has several flaky wifi issues. When I first got mine I could not get it to connect to my home router at all. Then it just started and has been working fine ever since. You may try changing your frequency settings on the router or using a different security protocol. In my case it seems once it got connected the situation was resolved. Good luck!

I tried changing the frequency, seeing that my neighbor was on the band as me. I'm not sure if that did the trick, but now my N4 seems to be picking up the signal a little more quickly.
Thank you for your suggestion.

Same issue here. Sometimes I'm connected to campus wifi, I drive all the way home and look at my phone, it's still trying to connect to campus wifi. I have to turn wifi off then back on for it to disconnect and auto connect to my home wifi.
So I have been using my Redmi Note 7 for at least 6 months. The wifi signal has been working fine until I changed the router. The router actually gives a very strong connection(up to 63mbs) but randomly everyday my wifi connection turns off. The wifi connection works fine for my computer and other devices though. I'm wondering if this is to do with my phone or my router? Any suggestions will be appreciated.?
I've had some weird Wifi issues as well, though I've seen it on certain other devices too. It has something to do with my home network setup. I found that the best solution was just to use a static IP when on my home network. I just had to be careful to use an address that was outside the range assigned by router. I also had to use the great google to find that a prefix length of 24 means a netmask of 255.255.255.0
Hey, you probably fixed the problem. I had this same problem with all modems, cable works and wifi disconnect. Try disabling ipv6 on modem/router.
Thanks guys!
I've been going through this for the past month as well... Thought my phone was going nuts turns out we just changed the router to a different brand as well
