Ok, so my virgin superhub 3 over WiFi should be giving me 200mbps. It is doing on everything except the shield, which is getting only 90mbps.
Can anyone suggest appropriate hub settings for the channels?
Superhub 2 was perfect.
My shield went left me connect the controller over ethernet, so that's not a solution.
Many thanks!

Further to my previous comment. It will not connect to any 5ghz channel. I switched off 2.4ghz on the router settings!?

Try changing the channel of the 5ghz band and see if it will connect. Some devices dont like certain channels.
Tried that. Won't connect to any channels. I really need somebody's settings to try and emulate a successful connection.

It's magically sorted itself! Odd!
But I'm happy!

In regards to to the Virgin hub 3 the best way to get around is to use the DMZ (make sure you know shield ip) in your router on turn the router the modem mode becuse virgin media are very difficult to work around ....

It will connect to my router fine then I can load a webpage but after that nothing loads but it remains connected. My S3 and note 10.1 work fine and everything else does too

THere are a few reports of incompatible routers
I'd suggest to try a different router to see if the WIFI works

Ye try a new router or check for a Firmware update for your router, all the issues I am seeing with WIFI are incompatibility between the S4 wifi chip remember it now has AC standard included as well as N. In most cases a router that is less than a year old should have a firmware update older than that your mileage will vary.
Well it connects to the router and usually works to load a web page or fb once n then stops working but today its been working ok apart from once or twice so I doubt its the router if today its been working ok today mostly but I could be wrong

Anyone else have the issue of your device being connected to wifi yet not being able to get connection? All services except Google based primarily work over wifi. I switch to mobile data, and all is good.
Any known issues? I had no wifi issues with my at&t UVerse service.

It's the **** technicolor router. G2 hated it, all my other devices maxed. Disabling QoS ect doesn't help much. I couldn't pass 3.5 dl on it, but maxed ul. Have Comcast give you another brand. Arris and Moto work fine.
I currently have the Arris TG862

Same, no problems here. Maybe you have bad router settings.
How do i share my wifi connection from my note 3 to my laptop? when i try apps, it just disables the wifi, thus defeating the whole sharing process. can anyone help?
Your 4G internet is shared using wifi. you cannot use wifi for both.

I don't have 4g data, i am just using it as a wifi right now, i want to share that wifi with my other devices, not possible huh?
Sorry no. What WiFi point is your phone receiving internet from? Y not just connect your computer to that same router?

If this physically works out for you, place the laptop within range of the router and host your laptop as a wireless access point/wifi via ICS(internet connection sharing) within Windows to your Android phone
So it would be like Router ---> Laptop ---> Android piggybacked where the phone is the one not in range of the Wifi
Another option is to upgrade your router/laptop to a longer range. If you're on N, upgrade to Ac if your wallet allows it
or just buy a Wifi range extender.
seems a bit sublime to be trying to use a mobile device which is likely to move all over the place as a range extender - when the problem that needs to be solved involves distance & orientation relative to fixed stations.
I have my Nexus player booted up not but for some reason it will not connect to my 5ghz network.
I have a 2.4ghz and a 5ghz network running on my router. phones and tablets can use the 5ghz just fine but the nexus player refuses to connect. Even when i input all settings manually it just wont connect. Works perfect on the 2.4ghz but since the player just right next to the wireless router i figured 5ghz would be much better...
Anyone else having this issue?
Issue fixed itself...must be a bug because it would not work then it did by its self 10 minutes later
I set mine up to connect to our 2.4GHz and never made any attempt to connect to the 5GHz; a while later I came back to it and saw it'd connected to the 5GHz on its own. I think maybe it gets your Wi-Fi settings from your phone via your Google account or something.

So maybe a dumb question. But mine has been giving me hell dropping WiFi connection all the time. My router is both 2.4 and 5ghz. How would I set the player to connect only to the 2.4???

Change the name of the 5ghz band only. I always keep my bands separate

thats what i did, i have a Netgear r8000 and i name each one of the differently. MyInternet, MyInternet5 and MyInternet5ac. its a tri band router. ac is smoking fast, it can play 20Gb files no problem.
So I just switched from my broken pixel 2 XL to my 3-g network extender, I got the 3-g one because I just wanted to be able to make calls at my house and use my Time Warner Cable for everything else so it it seemed unnecessary to pay for the 4G extender. Unfortunately this phone will not connect to my extender, any ideas? is that particular extender on a band that is not built into this phone?

If you're using verizon the 6T is an LTE only phone. It won't communicated with the 1x or 3g networks.
Those extenders were made obsolete by wifi calling. Why not use that instead of a garbage 3G connection that has to connect to your broadband internet anyway just to work?

I use a T-Mobile cellspot for sms/mms, which is always spotty on WiFi. Also I don't have to worry about a call dropping due to switching from cell to WiFi.
But I'm a certain use case. I travel for work and public WiFi sucks for WiFi calling. So I always keep it on cellular preferred.
OT: OP will have to give more details on their set up. What band is that 3g extender? Who is your provider?
It's a Verizon 3g extender and I'm using a Verizon sim.

Here is the model Samsung Network Extender SCS-2U01 Verizon Wireless SCS2U01 Signal Booster. Without it my phone only had service in some areas. I have a Verizon sim and the phone is unlocked version from OP. Are there any cheap alternatives for a Verizon customer without cell service to get it.

Do you have any thoughts on a solution? Can't really have the phone if and I can't receive phone calls in my own home. I suppose you would say a 4G extender? But the ones I see are like 300 bucks. Is there a cheaper alternative on missing for a 4 g extender that would allow me to keep this phone

Solved. Verizon sending 4g extender for free since the network won't support 6t on wifi.

Glad you got it solved. Also good tip for other users.
I know T-Mobile gives theirs out for free. ($25 deposit that instantly turns into bill credits). But it's good to see Verizon will give them out for free for users also.
