Serious Wifi issue on Kaiser...need fix ASAP!

I'm really astonished that this is happening...and I can't figure out why. My neighbors just got a wireless router hooked up, and i get about 1 bars worth of signal at my house. It is an unsecured connection and my Kaiser keeps connecting to it whenever I turn on Wifi. It will no longer connect to my wifi network no matter what I do. I click on my network in wifi settings and hit 'connect' and then it connects to my neighbors again...I delete it, start over...and no matter what I do it always connects to it. It's obviously some sort of glitch...any ideas on how to fix without a hard reset which is what I'm about to do because it is so frustrating. Everything I use is wireless, and nothing else was affected...just my Kaiser. Anyone had this happen to them before?

get your own internet connection and stop stealing signal from your neighbors!.
On another note, try to set your connection instead of best battery try best performance settings>wifi>advanced>power(sorry dude, if these are not the correct names, but I'm on my touch 2 phone with WM 6.5 spanish rom ..)

I'm on stock AT&T Tilt Rom WM6.1 I've tried all settings available through the Windows UI. So it must be somewhere in the registry that I need to change. I can delete all networks and scan for new ones...two come up...mine, and the new (neighbors)...I've been connecting to mine automatically for years now....and even if I click connect on my network...after its all said and done with the logging in...it connects to the wrong one still...grrrrr

[Q] Issue in connecting to 2G/3G/H/H+

Hi,
I am using Note for more than 2 months now. I was using N1 before. And I had the same issue with N1 also.
Issue is,
In my work place, there are some area where no mobile would get a network. I used to stay connected always. But due to this network issue, my internet would get disconnected but would not get connect again when the network is back.
As I said I had this same issue with N1 but I normally toggle the Flight Mode to bring it back. But in Galaxy Note, this workaround is not working. I have to restart the mobile to get connected.
Does anyone have solution for this issue?

I don't know what you are asking. The issue is the connection gets lost when there is no network. But it's not re-connecting once the network is back. I have to restart the mobile to get the connection.

i meant is it happening only in your office or even in other place too..??
Try with different network. (AIRTEL/BSNL/IDEA or any other)

I think this is an intermittent android problem. I have no signal in my flat, and sometimes when i go out it doesn't reconnect properly, and i need to restart before i get texts/voicemails that i missed while inside. Its an occasional problem, and only happens sometimes. And usually it happens when i spend an entire day indoors so the phone has been without signal for some time.
This also happened on my hd2 with gingerbread and Ics. And also happens on my gfs HTC salsa. It's not a note specific problem as far as i can tell.

You are right. I had the same problem with my N1 too. But I never restart in my N1. Toggling the Flight Mode will bring back the connection. But its not working in Note.

i have this issue after i receive MMS.
i just go to settings, wireless and network, mobile networks, access point names, tap on my web connection (vf web since im on vodafone AU), and then just hit back. the 3g logo will disappear and then reappear as the phone reconnects to the correct wireless access point.

[Q] Any Issues with WiFi

Loving the phone really, one thing i have noticed is when ever im downloading or uploading large files through my home WIFI after a short period the phone disconnects from the network and i have to reconnect manually. Any ideas is anyone else having the same issue. All my other devices are fine

Same thing here, but it reconnects itself - just losing the connection for 1-2 seconds. It happens sometimes even when browsing the web. Most likely some kind of software bug.

Had similar symptoms when playing with the phone at work`s WiFi (1st day of usage). On my home WiFi nothing wrong at all.

Make sure that keep WiFi on during sleep is always.
Or the WiFi will turn off the moment u turn the screen off

I found that WiFi is one of the most power draining things on phones. The best thing would be to switch to mobile data while sleeping and turn wifi off during that time.
That way you can still receive everything, but since you're sleeping you will barely use any data at all.
To bad the phone can't do that automatically.

I'm getting frequent wifi drops in my home (netgear router, wpa psk security) and its also affecting other devices in the house! Other wifi networks I've connected to seem to be fine, no issues whatsoever. Sometimes it'll say its connected, but no data, other times it will disconnect entirely.
This is a VERY strange problem and the fact that its affecting the wifi connection to other devices is even stranger.

Just an update on this, I returned my phone to P4U this morning as the wifi thing was annoying me and the phone has eaten 823mb of mobile data in one weekend even though i had mobile data turned off and connected to WIFI, The handset said i used 115mb and Voda said 823mb. not the only reason i returned it but it needed changing. So got my new handset up and running this afternoon and im set up and i been downloading all my files and apps with out any problems.
So looks like i had a dud phone first time around.

Getting the same problem too. All my other devices (Nexus7, Ipad, PC) can connect fine to my wireless home network (fibre). But when I start connecting my Xperia Z to the wireless network, after 5 mins, my Gateway will hang, and restart itself. Happens all the time without fail as long as I have my phone hooked up to the wireless network.
Anyone else facing this problem?? I'm kinda at a loss now on how to solve it. Tried adjusting settings on my wireless channel too but doesn't seem to help. Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!

Ok, so i reckon this could be an issue with not having a static I.P address. Gonna change it tonight when I get home and see if the problem is solved. It's either that or it may be trying to connect to a port thats used for something else? Have ports assigned for my Xbox ect. I'm not too knowledgeable about these things so any other suggestions are welcome. Not too many settings on the phone unfortunately so the problem has to be solved using the router I'd say.

I have static ip set up since the beginning, and I also have the problems. Only my problem seems to stem from 2.4 GHz/ 5 GHz (if this is even possible). 5 GHz is the preferred one, but this one seems to be out of range sometimes and it switches to mobile data. The 5 GHz is then out of range, while the 2.4 GHz is not. Very strange.

Ive found the Xperia Z has held on to a 5GHz Wi-Fi signal better than any other device I've used before, but the 2.4GHz can often disappear...
Very odd, although at home I am quite happy that 5GHz works better as there's far less interference from local neighbours. Perhaps that's causing the problem - in that the XZ isn't so well set up to cope with other routers on the same Wi-Fi channels??

The reach of my 2.4 GHz is at 75%, while 5 GHz is at 50%??? Strange.

I would always expect 2.4GHz to carry further, and so I am surprised by my experience too.
In my case, there's only 1 5GHz router visible other than mine, but countless 2.4GHz ones. Not sure why that would make the XZ drop (and sometimes even lose) the connection - but that's what seems to be happening.

Xperia Z no wi-fi without SIM
I have a different wi-fi issue with my Xperia Z. It does not connect to my home wi-fi when there is no SIM in the phone. It just says that the network is out of reach. When I pop in the SIM card, it connects automatically. Actually, all the hi-end Sony phones I tried recently do this (Ion, T and more). I've been looking for a solution here on the forum, but didn't find any helpful topic. But maybe I was looking wrong. Does anyone know, what to do?

I think the obvious answer is put a SIM in there... and if that means getting any old SIM and cutting it to size, even if it's not registered on any network, then do that.
I wonder if it the phone is looking at the SIM to identify the country, and therefore what channels can be used? I say this because when I first used the phone (without SIM) I also had problems [router not showing up in a scan], and my router is on channel 13. I then put in a SIM and at some stage did another scan and it found my router.
Is your router perhaps on channel 11, 12 or 13?
I know it's a long shot, but who knows?

Interesting point, will try to investigate with the channels. And I may also try to dig out some inactive SIM, thanks for the tip... The only thing I found is, that the problem obviously appears only with the WPA2-PSK security. With WPA, its all a-OK...

If you look inside the build.prop
The wifi.channel is not assigned,maybe this can gives you an idea guys.

[Q] Anyone else having WiFi issues with their HTC One?

Hey guys,
So I just got my brand-spanking new HTC One today. I upgraded from the Evo LTE, and I already love it.
But there's one thing that has been really frustrating to me for the few hours I've owned this phone... It has major WiFi issues.
My One can see the WiFi network, can connect to it, but wont give an internet connection! It's so frustrating!
My Evo LTE, being connected to the same WiFi network, connects to the internet with no problem at all.
A temporary fix is to turn off the WiFi radio, then turn it back on. As a result, I would connect to the internet for a minute or so, then it would disconnect from the internet (it's still connected to my WiFi network, and it recognizes it, and it gives no messages about the connection suggesting that something is wrong with my router/connection).
I changed the frequency bands, but they all have the same issue. I have enabled "Best Wi-Fi performance" and "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep."
I've also reseted my router numerous times... No luck.
Is anyone else having this issue, or did I just get a lemon? Can anyone think of a possible solution?
Thanks!

no issues here with my one and my netgear r6300 ac router.

Wi-Fi has been fantastic for me on my one. My evo LTE if you remember had the issue of wi-fi just shutting off after the phone was asleep. That was fixed in an update but even after that was fixed my evoLTE would show it's connected but data would not work. So I would have to toggle it on & off. I also had an issue with my sense widget not working and getting stuck. I was really starting to dislike the evoLTE because of it since your notifications quit working if your wi-fi was not connected correctly. I put up with crappy wi-fi for almost a year, mainly because I knew if I took it into Sprint they would say everything works perfect I just didn't wanna deal with. I know it's extremely frustrating to not have your wi-fi work correctly. My advice see if you can get a hold of another HTC one to test side by side. If it's a hardware issue you should get it swapped. You could also try hard resetting. I use a a WRT54GL with tomato at home and a Asus N66U at work, both have performed awesome with my one.

I have _exactly_ the same issue with my One. I have no idea if it's a software or a hardware problem. Tried a hard reset just yet, but it didn't seem to make a difference.
Really frustrating indeed, since the One is not very good available in the Netherlands yet, so if I return it, I might have to wait a few weeks to get a new one. I've tried it with at least 6 completely different WiFi networks, but the problem occurs with every one of them.

Only issue I have had with the WiFi thus far is it doesn't seem to have the pickup up range compared to my other phones and tablets.

WiFi on mine is insanely crazy! Picks up signal way better than any other device I've ever owned. Might be the kernel I'm running. Try it out! Look in the original dev thread.

I've noticed this as well. Areas in my office where I could get a decent wifi signal with my 3D I am dropping wifi completely with the One.

Router brand/model? Firmware version? WEP/WPA/Open? 2.4Ghz, 5Ghz or dual band? Channel (more relevant on 2.4 than 5)?
Does your phone get a valid IP? Check on the phone itself then the router under DHCP (assuming normal configuration, IP should begin 192.168.*.*)
Can you ping any internal node (ie your router) or external node (ie google.com or the IP to google)?
If your router has WEP/WPA enabled, switch it to Open solely for testing the connection.

[Q] Wireless Gets Disconnected Oftenly

Hello,
After I bought this tablet, I am always having an issue whatever ROM i try doesnt matter (stock one, stock latest, crombi-x, crombi-kk)
WI-FI works great on my home network which is password protected and not much channel congestion around.
WI-FI gets disconnected very often (every 2-3 minutes generally if only I start surfing) at work, where there is lots of WI-FI in the same channels (this is because most of networks are from the same router). At work, if I start a download and do nothing else it goes good but whenever I start surfing, then i get disconnected. Work WI-FI is not secure by WPA etc but certificate authantication is required. So I suspect there is something wrong wiht certificate services with the device or software. It sounds like a buffer gets full when I connect to different web sites.
I tried a lot of browsers and there is no difference between them.
Any help will be appriciated.

I have that problem also. But it happened only after I bought a cheap dlink n300. Before that I was using a Belkin and it was fine.I Just have to hit retry.

It may be the battery save feature of the tablet that is disconnecting you from WiFi. Try turning that off to see if you still have the issue.

If you are not having the issue at home then it is more likely the work Cisco setup.

I used to have the same problem on my home network. I live in the city and have lots of Wifi-networks around (about 15 to 20). At work, where wifi channels aren't so crowded, i didn't have this problem.
What fixed it for me was to put the router to 802.11n-only (before it was mixed n/g/b). As from that moment (many months ago) i haven't had a single disconnect. But I guess this might not be a solution for you...
