Can anyone confirm that their Galaxy Tab can connect to wifi on the 5.8 GHz range?
I'm trying to pair it to an N-only router that is using WPA2 with AES on the 5 GHz range, channel width set to 40, and it doesn't seem able to even see the network.
Make your router have a channel 12 or lower. The tab is b or g compatable.

Ahhh no. I connect to my wifi n 5.8 signal all the time. It does take longer to show in the wifi settings field as it scans for g networks first.
I use a linksys e3000 with g on my 2.4 channel and n on my 5.8 channel. Tab connets to n all the time.

Okay, I got this one figured out. It turns out my Tab won't connect to 5GHz channels 149 and 157 from my router.
It turns out that 149 and 157 are allowed in the US, but not in Europe according to this article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels
When I flashed my modem to JPZ to enable calls on my AT&T tab, did that also affect my Wifi? If so, is there a way to enable calls and still support all US 5 GHz channels?
I can make/receive calls when I am at home on wifi. Jk3 modem here.

You were stating bogus info saying the tab only does b and g when right on the box it states wifi n. I then gave a description of my setup for reference. Not being smarter just truthful. Oh, and i didnt even ask a question so your reply makes no sense. Stop being a jackass on the internet just because you got corrected about something.

I use JPZ modem and the latest Dip7 rom and i can make and receive calls while my wifi is on and connected on wifi n 5.8. My width is 40 and my channel is on auto. You mentioned something about europe being different, maybe the router you have doesnt broadcast out at the settings you are trying?
Hope this helps you.

Could you try setting your router to channel 149 and seeing if it works still?

Your box is smarter than my box, because my box doesn't give any info like that. You are smarter than the at&t website and Samsung's too, because they only claim wifi connectivity. You are smarter than everyone, but you could use an attitude adjustment, because a solution different than one that a god like you has doesn't make it wrong. We are only here to share ideas to people looking for advice. Don't be profane or rude please.

So I just got my Note (stock ROM, Poland origin) a few days ago and I can't see my 5GHz 802.11n wireless signal. What do I need to do to get it to show up?
i think you have to determine what country of origin your note is from and set the channels on your router to be compatible with the firmware on your phone.

Would love to know if this is possible as well.
Did some reading and it sounds like those frequencies are specific to Europe and Japan. You may be able to change it in firmware or get a wifi driver that supports those frequencies. I've also read there are some legal issues regarding this.

I did a lot of research and finally gave up. I read someone said it's hardcoded in the wifi driver. In that case, we can do nothing unless the kernel is specifically modded for this.

Seem to remember certain channels in America are restricted for military or government use.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA
From what I've read, 12 and 13 are European channels and 14 is Japanese. Perhaps it might work if you could load firmware on your router from those areas. I have never tried it.
I don't know if its the same but in the ROM I'm using (cyanogenmod 7.2 RC1) you can go to wifi settings and change channels 11 13 and 14 under the option regulatory domains
I just changed my home router to a European location. The extra channels became available but my IncS was not able to connect to them.
... great guys! THANKS SO MUCH!

Also, when trying to download apps from Play Store, small apps are taking forever to download.
So it's not just some incompatibility with Speedtest

I have no idea what you mean by "WiFi Canal"
but if you're talking about changing my WiFi channel, there is no need - every wireless device in my house gets great speeds:
Galaxy Nexus (x2, 2 family members have them)
Nexus 7
Asus EeePC 1000HE
MediaCentre PC
so it's nothing to do with my router, or my WiFi configuration. It's the phone.

I have a feeling it's your router and/or firewall settings.
For example, on my friends connection It'll take me 5mintues to DL a 3mb app from the playstore, but the speedtest is just fine. At home, it'll download in a second or two.
While the phone is the only thing experiencing the issue, your router is the only thing that could be causing it. Have you tried anyone elses wifi?

No problem here... I do believe that Motorola's Wi-Fi radio doesn't play will with some routers, never heard of your problem before though. I have an Asus ac56u and it sees 5ghz fine.

Following up on your post here, channel 149 is picked up by my Moto X. Maybe give that a try and see if yours picks it up too. Strange I've never had to do channel specifics for any other phone though. Thanks for the info.
moto x is also ac compatible. I get 433mbps or 450 or something like that. Can't recall the exact number when I checked it.
Nice wish I had a router that handled that. I'm still kinda shocked it doesn't handle all N channels.

as i am also interested in this question. I figured i'd ask it for you. Just for future reference. reply to his post so that it shows up as a notification for mainbord. If he hasn't subscribed to this thread (which most don't unless it is a thread they want to stay updated on) then he won't ever know you asked him a question unless you click the reply button on his thread so you quote him.

Hello.
In the very beginning of using my mtcb device, there was an option in the settings with auto brightness. It worked with the illumination wire.
I don't know really, what I changes, but it isn't working anymore or let's say, the option isn't there anymore.
What I have done is switching between different Roms and changed a few things in factory settings. Can there be the problem?
The second one: anybody here using a 4g stick? Is it possible? Which model are you using?
I am really unhappy my 3g stick, working with my old parrot Android device, is not working on this one. Which ones are you using?
Thanks for the help

I just ordered a Huawei wingle.
It's an USB-powered Wifi-stick.
It turns on by it self when it get's power, and then it makes a wifi-hotspot, that the radio connects to automaticly.
(I haven't recived it yet, but i hope that it works excatly as i described).

I'm sure it has to do with which kernel modules were compiled in. And as far as I know, we don't have any true original android ROMs for our units, so that's not likely to change soon.
