Has anyone had an issue with their S7 constantly connecting/disconnecting from their WIFI?
I am using a Linksys E3000 and WPA/WPA2/PSK.
This happens most when downloading larger (800MB+) files.

Well I moved from CH8 to 11 and everything is fine. CH8 when looking through Channelyzer was the least congested with 1 and 11 being the next best choices (US channels though 14 is clear if I hack everything to use the high Euro ones).
Did a few large downloads and had no issue with my WIFI.
I will test with all channels this week and post here if the issue comes back.

I'm also using an e3000 but haven't had any issues. Wish it had n though.

Its a the Rii mini, a chinese manufactured keyboard. Great little gadget and It works great with my Streak. No problems with connection and all keys are working properly. A lot of functions, great battery live ( up to 700 hours). Dongle is a bluetooth device for pc without such a feature. But be careful to order the bluetooth version, because an alternate keyboard with exactly same looks and name is sold as wireless 2.4 Gh version. In my happiness I almost ordered the wrong one. Otherwise good choice.
thanks! I'm hoping to buy this soon....I want to see if it works with worlds hardest game online(it needs arrow keys)

it strikes me with a question:
would anybody know that the PS3 bluetooth keyboard will work..?
Try it, if it works you can tell everyone else
Hi,
I was lucky enough to get my Nexus 7 today as I bought mine from Ebuyer. I've been playing with it for a couple of hours now and have noticed that I get really weak signal strength using my home WiFi. The internet is working a lot faster on my phone (ics) and on my laptop. Has anyone else had this problem? Is it a jelly bean issue?
Thanks for any help
My WiFi strength has been very good so far. Have you updated to 4.1.1? I don't know if it affects WiFi, but I updated right away and its been good since
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
So what was the final result? Did your wifi strength got better?
So far mine seems pretty good.

I updated a few hours ago before I posted. The signal is usable for browsing but YouTube takes ages to load there have been times when i've got no signal at all while my phone can load YouTube videos up fine. I pretty much always have 1 bar of signal,I know that's not the mist accurate indicator, but there's definitely a difference in performance between the nexus and my one x. Maybe i have a dud?
Rumours went around earlier that those models shipped earlier than google play, might have issues with wi-fi or screen problems, but don't take my word for it, it was just a post I saw on this thread.

Have you checked, settings, then wifi, then menu select advanced, then select "best wifi performance". It bumps up the wattage to the WIFI antenna. Its mentions at least on my HTC EVO 4G LTE that it may consume more battery. Hope it helps.
I'm sitting about 20 feet from my router in the same room and I have full bars. I did a bandwidth test and got...
Test Date: Jul 14, 2012 12:53:25 am
Connection Type: Wifi
Server: Vernon Hills, IL
Download: 17073 kbps
Upload: 3080 kbps
Ping: 23 ms
So I guess it's okay here. I'm on 4.1.1

Just walked around the house, no problems. I did lose signal in the driveway though.
Yeah I'm having issues with WiFi also, same problem with YouTube being really slow. Also my WiFi cuts out and I have to turn it off and back on again

Install WiFi analyser from the play store and see what the WiFi signal strength on your router channel is like, also shows other routers near you which may be interfering with yours.
I hope its good my A500 was rather weak.

No issues with wifi so far. However i don't think the chip supports 5 GHz networks as i can only pick up the 2.4 GHz networks.

Hmmm... wifi strength... Yes, hmm, indeed... let me say this...
OMFG it's GREAT!!!
Compared to my Razr Maxx and my Acer Iconia A500, it's amazing. I'm seeing neighbors wifi that I never knew existed. ZERO problems not only anywhere in my house, but anywhere on my property. Probably the best wifi reception I've seen on a mobile device.
anyone also have a prime? if so, how does the 7s range compare?

I have a Acer a500 tablet and let me say the Nexus 7 gets 2x the Wifi strength of that POS. I love the range I am getting its very similar to my Galaxy Nexus.

Hello.
When I use my Bluetooth headphones my wifi cuts out after about 10 minutes, it only affects the nexus because my xbox can still connect as can my 2 computers and laptop.
I know for a fact it's not my internet as my noise margin is currently at 19.5db download and 25.5db for upload.
help please??
Android 4.2 has a lot of Bluetooth issues. I don't know how to fix it, try to Google it?

Go to apps in settings and go to all apps and find bluetooth share and clear data, it fixed the issue for me

Its slower then dial up when i use the head phones...
dunno why i have a fast internet (24meg down)
I use Bluetooth and wifi at the same time all the time. I have a moga controller that's paired and surf no problem.

Asus, the maker of our N7, had to cut corners to come under $200 mark, so they specc'd a cheap WiFi/Bluetooth chip in the N7. Furthermore, they cut corners on QC, thus the atricious build quality and service issues.

I take this back. It doesn't happen all the time and a reset usually fixes it. Sometimes when I pair my Moga, my play store won't load. I can still surf but some apps wont connect. Rebooting fixes it until I attempt to pair again. Its not every time but about 1 out of 5 times.
I thought it was just the Moga Pivot app at first and I just use the universal driver now... but it still cuts wifi occasionally.
Probably just a quirk with 4.2.1

Just a heads up, I've got a Portenzo Alano case and it's beautiful... BUT.. after noticing some serious buffering on YouTube I ran a speed test using speedtest. net and 2 very unhappy with the results. With the Alano on, I got download speeds of roughly 6000, upload of 4000 and a ping of 98. With the case off my speeds jumps to 11,000, 6000 and a ping of 23. Anyone else experience this?
Update: Seems Ok now, I don't have a clue why.

I don't have the Alamo, but I do have a portenzo bookcase. No issues here...

Hey guys I'm trying use my chromecast i set it up but now I can't cast anything to it... I'm using iOS 7 but it didn't work on my older android phone either.
My wife's iPad 2 works perfectly fine with it. As well as both my nexus 7 and gnex
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
What are you trying to cast? Did you add the device or pair the device to the chromecast? Make sure they are both on same network. Only apps to work so far are mainly YouTube Google Music and Netflix.

I am aware of what apps do and don't work, and my house is isolated enough that it's the only network available it works with my GN and PC but not my iphone 4
Ok just asking. As for iphone 4 not sure why it wouldn't work. Only thing I can think of is make sure your iphone has its wifi on. Other than that not sure.

Did u find a solution? Im having problems with my iphone 4 does not find the CC but my wifes note 2 and laptop can cast fine. Iphone is in the same wifi as the CC. I actually used the iphone to setup the CC but now its not working
