When on wifi my kaiser seems to loose the signal and picks it up again.
its just going on and off.
No problem with the routersignal all wireless computers work fine.

Have you put the slider to best performance rather than best battery?
Yes i did
never had the problem with the tytn and wizard.
I only get that on my TyTN II when I'm far away from the router and the signal strength is low. If you've already set the performance vs battery life slider to give maximum performance as suggested by kareem9nba and it's still behaving as reported, what happens when you're near to the router?
If it's just that your saying the range isn't as good as youve been used to with other devices, I have nothing to compare my TyTN II with as this is my first WiFi capable ppc - but I'm sure other more experienced members here will be able to comment. If you're near to the router where there's no doubt it should be working fine and still getting problems then thats a different matter.
maybe your router needs a restart or maybe its just faulty.
have you tried other devices with same router?
try a wifi sniffer/scanner see what happens (a good example would be PeekPocket)

I do! My Kaiser's performance is on a par with my old HTC Universal, which is to say, they are both terrible at getting a signal. I don't think my Kaiser is faulty as back in the Universal forums, it was often commented how useless the WiFi was in comparison to other machines. I used to have a HP Ipaq 5450 which could get a signal upto approx 20m from my router, my laptop starts struggling at around 50m. The Universal could just about get a signal upto 4m away, the Kaiser is no better.
I realise much of this is due router location and the fact that I was trying to get WiFi in my garage, but in my bedroom with a full signal on the laptop, the HTC devices struggle to get more than 1 bar and if I move 10cm further away from the router the signal goes completely.
I think the WiFi on the Universal and the Kaiser just isn't that powerful. I guess it's Maximum Performance setting is still quite low power in order to save battery life. Wonder if there is a registry tweek to increase the power to the WiFi card, and if doing that would blow the card?!

I'm using an 11 Mbps Wifi capable router (about 2003 vintage) and even with a wall and a floor between my TyTN II and the router it still works about 15 m away, I've yet to try any further as that'd be outside the house. I was impressed to see it even detected other WiFi sources in the area though. I found that even though the signal quality bar was fluctuating, my web browsing still worked OK. Bumping the slider towards the performance end did make a difference to the signal quality indicator (although it still fluctuated). If your TyTN II is only working up to 4 m from your router then I think there's a fault with either device, you should be getting better than that.
I can connect to my linksys WRT54G when beside the it and 20mt away. Even when beside it the TynII will cycle off (disconnect) and then reconnect again. I thought it was signal strength but I am beginning to think its just a crappy wifi setup on the tyn. I also have my slider on best performance.

Funny that, so am I! However I bought it because it was cheap and I really didn't know much about WiFi etc several years ago when I bought it. I notice many routers come with external antenna's, mine is all internal so I would think that it's more my router isn't that powerful, combined with the Kaiser having a less powerful WiFi set-up that older models. To be fair, the Ipaq had an external antenna (of sorts, a little lump on top) and my previous laptops didn't have built in WiFi, their external WiFi adaptors also had external antenna's.
Frankly I think that all this internalisation of components is having a negative impact on signal strength and range. To compare I have a GSM car kit with an external antenna that picks up a much better signal than a phone on it's own. Likewise my GPS can be connected to an external antenna and I've noticed when connected it will pick up more satalites, with a stronger lock, than when on it's built in antenna. It also picks up more than the Kaiser (internal antenna) or Universal (external bluetooth GPS with internal antenna) ever do.
Still, it all just about works for my needs, so I'm going to leave well alone!

i have the same problem... i hope that's a firmware problem....
checked
i checked signal and even did hard reset on kaiser.
i still have full signal and goes to zero all the time
no clue here

But does this actually affect your browsing? In the end the signal quality bar can do whatever it wants as long as the data still gets through as far as I'm concerned and for me that’s happening. My hunch is that the reason why the signal quality bar intermittently dips down (even when nearby a router) is associated with power management on the TyTN II (which will still be in place to a certain degree even when the performance vs. battery life slider is fully at the performance end).

really i can't connect to my wifi router, while other hardware can (a laptop for example). it loops from "connecting" to "available" with 5 bars. but nevers connect or never shows an error. i tried open, WEP, WPA, WPA2 with no results... its a compatibility problem of TYTN II with some routers....
i hope that upgrading firmware, this problem dissapear....
Hi
My experience isn't that the signal itself is particlarly poor, but that it can be prone to loose connection regularly if its very weak. Atm I'm sitting some 150m from the accesspoint (quite powerfull transmitter), through a couple of concrete walls and its fast, as in almost so fast as the Kaiser can chew. Livestreaming from Youtube is np etc. The signal is no doubt very poor tho, and I have to use max signal/minimum battery on that bar you can adjust.
What drives me nuts is that it DCs me and often force me to key in the network key randomly every 1 to 20mins or so. I don't know if this is due to weak signal (both my laptop and the kaiser have 1 bar) or config of the wlan/kaiser. The PC dont DC, but its deffo a cranky connection. It almost seems like theres some auto-DC feature somewhere.
On other networks I haven't seen this. Generally I find the Kaiser wlan surprisingly powerfull, albeit it often shows a weak signal I've found this to be very relative and far from always descriptive of real life performance.

kaiser wifi low signal - wi fi poor reception - wifi disconnecting and reconnecting:
Suffered a lot with my kaiser wifi poor reception. Tested several radio versions and could solve the problem.
Radio version:
1 71 09 01 - too low WIFI reception
1.27.12.11 - disconnecting and turning OFF the WIFI with no automatic reengage of the access point or turning ON the WIFI if coverage is good.
1.65.17.56 is the versione that SOLVED my problem.
This radio was collected from the original HTC shipped rom:
RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_3.28.405.0_radio_sign_25.83.40.02_1.65.17.56_Ship.exe
In this moment I am running Radio 1.65.17.56 with
ROM jjblaster3 - updated 28014 with good WIFI behaviour.
I need to underline that the reception I have now with the Kaiser, can never reach the sensibility of my Nokia 5530 WIFI or the one I have on my laptop with good antenna embeded in my LCD framem but I am happy now because the WIFI is making sense now.
Best Regards

I'm facing the same problem. WiFi worked fine and one day it was suddenly gone. Tried quite a few radios, including 1.65.17.56 and still no deal.
To elaborate, when WiFi is turned on, the icon never even comes up in the taskbar, and it continues to remain in an off state (when checked in wifi settings) even when it's turned on (in the comm manager).
I'm guessing this could be a hardware problem like a loose contact to the antenna? Anyone heard of such issues?
(On a side note, the phone function never worked either, I always got a "No Service")
I've fixed it! I believe the problem was indeed a loose antenna. I opened up my phone and removed the antenna peice (the plastic plate that also houses the speaker) and pushed up the two pins left of the camera (so that they'll have better contact with the antenna piece. Put everything back and now the WiFi works!
Now if only I can figure out why the cellular doesn't work..
For an unknown reason my diamond performs really poorly with wifi ?
My iphone and ps3 always have a 100% signal but on my diamond im lucky to get 2 bars. Even when I have 4 its still very very slow.
Any ideas ? Dodgy wifi in the phone ?
My Diamond is set to best performance therefore that cant be the issue

What ROM do u Have?? Radio???
Latest radio ROMS are pretty good. For example, the .07 and .08 are good Radio Roms with great reception. I like .05 which save a little more battery and still i have 5 bars no matter were i am

Hi, the radio .18 are good? improve wifi?
I have the same problem...thanks
Have you tried to set the power setting of your Wifi to "best performance" (away from "battery saving mode")? that should help, i guess.
Hi
I have the ROM that comes with the Orange Uk fones.
I believe its the 1.137.405.1 WWE ROM
and
1.00.25.03 Radio version
I have no trouble with signal strength with my diamond, but when I go into the properties for wireless while I am connected to my Linksys 54g Access Point, the Diamond shows me as having a 54mbps transmit rate and only a 1mbps receive rate.
This happens even if I am standing beside the access point. I could careless about how fast I send data, I want to be able to play movies via the wireless from my mediacenter box. But obviously with 1mbps it stops and starts all the time while it buffers the data.
Should I have 54 on both send and receive assuming signal is good. Is there anything in the Router that could cause this, I haven't noticed any issues with my 2 laptops.
Is there any software that can show me what the send receive rates individually are in Vista, so I can compare ?
*BUMP*
Does anyone have an answer/tweak to this? I'm also suffering from this issue.
TIA
Angus
Is it feasible to change the radio without changing the ROM?
I am running the stock WM6.1, but my WiFi sucks since I installed my home wireless system. I installed a linksys WRT110 RANGEPLUS wireless router...range is good for my laptop, but the Tilt is good out to about 20 feet with the stock radio.
I don't think the radio has anything to do with wireless, just the camera, sound and cell radio.
hey, 2 quick questions b4 this is closed down:
the stock roms(and their upgrades), do these upgrade files(they just have 1 big .exe file, and no .nbh file) also change your radio?
and secondly, since i changed roms, radio and spl, my gps is now a couple thousand meters off point, would this be bcuz of my rom/radio/spl, or are the satellites just havn a bad day. (satellite..having a bad day....... get it.... lmao)
its ok to change radio without changing rom..changing radio is for you to get a good signal from your service provider and gps i think..and for your wifi problems change your kaiser wifi settings to full performance, it might be in full battery option..
Well, even though I live in the boonies, I have a full strength HSDPA signal and my GPS works like a charm.
WiFi worked well at some hotspots in the past, but now, not so much, especially with the set up I have in the house.
Don't matter, I have the unlimited data plan, and 8meg cable for internet.
Just thought I could get the WiFi working better.
I have issues on Wi-Fi with my one where with my Samsung glide no problems . I have a Belkin router wireless N and it normally works fine but with the one I get occasional drops and reconnects. Anyone else have this issue. I am on stock rogers. My Wi-Fi has security enabled as well.

Did you turn on Power Saver and Sleep Mode? Click the Power Saver mode in the Power menu in Settings. You can select what Power Saver controls. Untick Data Connection, and if you want, turn off Sleep Mode as well.
I have noticed some issued. I have the developer edition and upgraded from a nexus 4. There seems to be issues with the One releasing wifi and reconnecting to data or vice versa.
In some cases, i know i am clearly out of range for a wifi network, such as the top floor of my office, yet it picks it up and connects without data since i assume i am out of range. For now i just manually control it as its pretty rare, but fir sure not something i have ever experienced before.

Agreed this is what I am seeing.I have disabled power saving and the other option to turn off data when sleeping and yet periodically the wifi just drops as I am viewing some wifi video streaming. It is weird I switch off the WiFi and use data and all is fine. I do not know if it is an incompatibility with my router. That's why I posted here to see if anyone else is seeing similar issues.
Also is there a way to set a manual Ip? was wondering if that may help as have heard issues of other phones having issues with DHCP via wifi.

I ordered a new AC router and will see if that works better and if I still get wifi drops. I am hoping it is my old cheap router giving me issues.

Well I got the ASUS RT-AC66U and now the Wireless 2.4GHZ works great but the phone will not connect at 5Ghz, so much for AC that only operates at that frequency. I heard other people are having this issue as well from my searches on this forum and the web. Kind of sucks that my router has the latest firmware and still has this issue with this phone. I did notice that there was a beta firmware on Asus's site but I am iffy on trying a Beta Firmware on my Router when all other devices are working great and so is the phone on the 2.4ghz. Great range with this router as well. Sucks that I can not use the 5Gz on the phone though. Tried on 2 other Devices that support 5Gz and it is working great on them. I gave 2 different names for the 2.4Ghz and the 5Ghz to tell them apart, but no go on this phone.

here's my take on the whole wifi thing with htc one. either the wifi chip is too picky or it's too new for the older routers. i couldn't get a wifi to stay connected using my old D-Link DIR-655 router from years ago. All other devices had no problems except this phone so that's a bummer. I then picked up the Asus RT-AC66U and immediately flashed the latest beta firmware. Performance and range is flawless on the 2.4GHz band for this router. 5GHz works as well if i'm close but it just doesn't have the range of the 2.4GHz for this phone so I've been sticking with 2.4GHz.
I actually wanted the just announced RT-AC68U but couldn't wait any longer as there's no eta on the release for it.

I used to have a Belkin Wifi-N router cost me about 40$ on sale and it used to work with my old Samsung but could not connect and stay connected on my One (Single was not to strong on top floor of house as well). It kept dropping WIFI after a few minutes on One and was really annoying. The RT-AC66U works great at the 2.4Ghz and I am tempted to try the Beta Firmware that you are using but I hear it slightly drops the range on the 2.4Ghz and all my other devices (WD-TVlive) are working great streaming 1080P from 3 floors up (Routers in Basement). Question for you, since you flashed the Beta firmware and can connect at 5Ghz are you hitting the 400Mb speed when you connect at close range. If you click on your connected network on phone it shows you the connection speed.

unfortunately with the beta firmware on 5GHz band, the fastest i am able to connect with this phone is around 87Mbps and it still feels slow compared to 2.4GHz. mind you this is me checking the speed by standing right next to the router with my phone. on 2.4GHz the fastest speed i can get is 72Mbps but the range is great. i hope asus is able to release newer firmware that will help increase the speed and range of this router at 5GHz but it's probably not possible. i still think it's the AC chipset/driver in this phone that's preventing the wireless from achieving maximum speed. in comparison, my dell latitude notebook is able to connect at 450Mbps at 5GHz with on wireless N. THat's with the intel wifi chipset which has always been imo the best in compatibility and performance. i look forward to the day when i can rock a smartphone with intel all in one chipset.
I am also connected at 72mb and at 2.4ghz it connects great. I am going to leave it like this. I find the range on the Asus router is amazing. It sure beats all other routers.
Hi
I received my 3T yesterday. I am having issues with WIFI
WiFi network drops frequently and the mobile data is used for some time and then WIFI is connected again. See attached .. This happens even when moving between rooms of my house
I think this happens when the mobile wifi changes from 5GHZ to 2.4GHZ when I move away from router
I have updated to OxygenOS 3.5.4 as soon as I received the mobile
The signal strength of the 3T is also very low
I have a 2 year old moto X 2014 and the moto beats the 3T at every place in my house
The signal strength and the wifi speed both are better in moto X
I have checked at various places
I have wiped the cache. Tried changing 2.5GHz to 5GHz
Changed Channels.. Tried all the things that I could find on the internet
But still problems
So is this a hardware problem and should I ask for a replacement? Or is this some Software bug which can be resolved
My router is ASUS RTN66U and a lot of other devices work seamlessly on that router and hence pls dont suggest to change the router
Awaiting replies
Regards
Ajjaykummar
I think this is a bug related to 3.5.4. On 3.5.3 my WiFi worked a lot better, but LTE Advanced is faster on 3.5.4. You can try a custom rom or downgrading, there's also a leaked OxygenOS 4 rom out.
Do you have wifi issues now when u have 3.5.4
I don't want to install new Roms. As I may have to return it in case this is a faulty piece
I'm having the exact same problem. I stream a lot. Very annoying when music video or gaming gets disconnect so often. My Galaxy Note 4, & s6 works fine.

yes, it started on 3.5.4.
here is a screencap of the issue
You can see in the screen cap that the mobile is connected to ASUS5 (5GHZ)
Then as I move away from the router the signal weakens and then the wifi disconnects .. and then it connects to ASUS (2.4GHZ)
Earlier it was connecting to ASUS but with a exclamation mark (without internet).. I waited for 15 minutes but it did not connect
Then I would connect if I switch off and on the wifi toggle
After that I did a factory reset and now you can see the screencap
It connects after a minor delay.. So is this alright
My other mobile - Moto X 2014 simply switches instantly from 5GHz to 2.4GHz and vice versa.. not even half of second is taken on moto x
Give the device a static IP use 2.4 network as it's more of a long range band. I tend to use the 5 band for stationary stuff. My WiFi works fine but all my home devices have a static IP.
This are the things that I did
1) Factory reset
2)Use Legacy DHCP client (under Developer options)
3)Disable Smart Wifi switcher (Advanced Wifi setting)
4)Static IP
This seems to solve the disconnection issue .. I still feel the wifi signal is weak compared to my other devices
Hope this helps someone facing the problem

I had the same Problem on OOS 3.5.3/3.5.4/4.0 at the OnePlus 3T.
I tried every Solution on the internet and nothing worked for me.
But after i looked into my Router-Setup i saw the DHCP Section where i selected 'Renew DHCP every Day'
>>> Screenshot what i mean - imgur.com/KakQX3i.png <<<
After that it works perfect. No connection-issues anymore.
mine is already one day..
I thought it was resolved... but again I noticed slow wifi speeds
thinking of replacement
haven't had the phone long enough to experience disconnects but wifi is definitely slow...
I have a 200mbps connection, getting 160mbps on desktop with LAN cable, 110mbps on my OPO, only 50mbps on my OP3T....
all tested through speedtest with the same server location.
OP3T is chinese version flashed with oxygenos 4.0.1
edit: later tested again with OP3T getting up to 90mbps but still 20 less than the OPO
I have same issus like lajay. The Galaxy S7 from my wife works perfekt in the same Network!
