WiFi Disconnection problems

Hi
I've always had this WiFi problem that after about 5 minutes of usage the internet connection disappears on my phone but the WiFi logo stays.
This forces me to disable and reenable WiFi on my phone.
Later I discovered that this only happens with WPA secured access points.
WEP and non secured access points work fine.
I tested my phone with 3 routers. Same results for all. On my first 2 routers it wasn't a problem because I just set up WEP security.
With my new router I cannot do this because it has wireless N which doesn't support WEP...
Also this happens will all ROMs, even the stock ROM.
After Google'ing this issue I found out that I am not the only one having this issue...
Does anyone know if there's a fix for this?

No one knows what the issue is?

Wifi works fine here using WPA2 and AES, my router is an ASUS RT-N16 running Tomato USB firmware.

Alright, so I decided to run logcat to capture the moment when the connection drops.
Here's the image of the log window:

}
How I tested this:
1) Ran adb logcat in Windows.
2) Enabled WiFi connection.
3) Opened up YouTube, selected a 10 minute long video.
4) After about 4 minutes, the video froze, because it ran out of buffer.

Maybe you should try the WiFi libs from the FreeXperiaProject? Or a different ROM.

[Q] 3G Novatel How To?

Ok, I've been around for a while among many of the popular android forums and I've seen many people state that they "know" someone who got a Novatel 727/760/etc working on their A500 or Xoom tablet but nothing substantial as to "how" they did it.
I know I can find plenty of threads detailing what is needed for Huawei branded modems and many of the custom roms already include support for these.
I'm hoping by starting this thread someone who "has" been able to get a Novatel dongle working might want to share how to get it done. Thanks in advance.

Bump...bump...
p.s. just to make this bump a little more signifigant I have found a temporary solution. I purchased a 3g router that works with my verizon 3g modem even though there was no supported manufacturer list prior to purchase, I made the leap and bought the WL330N3G made by ASUS. The router comes with a power supply but can also be powered of the A500's USB port making it very convenient but at the same time drains your battery.

It took me about a half an hour to get it configured and connected. The USB modem list does not have any Novatel modems listed but leaving modem selection to auto seems to work. Once setup, it takes about 2-3min to boot up and be connected.
I upgraded the firmware but I think it has some heat and cpu issues as sometimes it seems to lock up and I have to reboot the unit but on most occasions I get several hours of 3G internet for my tablet and other devices.

figured I'd put a bump on this. Maybe someone can suggest a rom that has support for more than the typical Huawei branded usb modems?

6P as USB Modem on Asus Router?

Can anyone with an Asus router, such as the RT-N56U, tell me if the 6P will usb tether to the router?
I do this with my Note II. Gives my whole house internet using the Asus router instead of the phone hotspot, and also get the benefit of ethernet connections and a better wifi signal than the phone can provide. And only having one wifi network to deal with makes things so much better. My Note 4 just sits in a drawer because of this, since it can't be rooted. Which is a shame because it has a better radio and can get sometimes 80mbps+, when the Note 2 only gets around 50mbps.

Well in case anyone else has this question, I went ahead and bought the 6P. Can confirm it worked straight out of the box, didn't have to even change any settings on my Asus router. Just plugged it into the router USB port, and selected USB tether on the 6P.
And the speed is incredible at my house:

Just to be clear, when I said I didn't need to change any settings on my router, meant because I had already set it up with a previous phone. If you've never set up the router to use a USB modem, you'll need to configure it. Very simple, at least on vzw, but not just plug and play.

S10 no longer connecting to AA or other external devices

Hello All -
I've been using Android Auto with my S10+ with no issues since it was new. It has always been connected via USB in my car. But as of a few days ago, it will no longer connect. When I plug it in now, I'll get a notification saying 'Android Auto is connecting...' and then it will show 'Can't connect to car screen.'
I've also discovered that I can no longer plug the phone into my USB-C to HDMI adapter to mirror onto a TV. It's not a Samsung adapter, but it's worked perfectly until now. When I plug it in now, I see a notification saying 'The connected USB device isn't supported.'
The phone charges just fine, and my Windows computer will recognize it when connected. It just won't seem to connect to any other kind of external device or screen.
The only change to the phone just before this was a security patch that I downloaded a few days prior. But I haven't been able to find any others having problems with it. Here is my phone's software info:

Some things I've tried so far:
- Tried a different cable.
- Connected another phone with AA in my car and it connected just fine.
- Deleted all cars in AA, reinstalled.
- Disabled Chrome (due to reports of Chrome causing issues on some phones).
- Cleared USB Settings cache and data.
Any suggestions for this frustrating problem are greatly appreciated!
