Wifi problems

Alright, this is my first post and I just recently got a Touch Diamond (my first 'smart' phone)...
I'm running into a problem that seems multiple people have been reporting - and that is Wi-Fi. Since the model that I got already came with the latest ROM installed (the one released mid July), I don't have anything to compare it to.
What's happening is that sometimes the phone will recognize my wifi connections, sometimes it won't. Even when I am able to successfully connect, it is only for a brief moment and then disconnects. Since I'm with T-Mobile and do not have a data plan, my main way of communicating will be through Wi-Fi. I'd REALLY like to know if there's anyone out there that might have any ideas...
I also tried updating the phone with the latest cooked SwiftBL ROM to see if maybe one of the modifications could fix it, but I still see the same problem. It's not my wifi because I've tried several other (non-secure) wireless connections and see the exact same problem with all of them. I saw on this forum who suggested to change the power settings of the Wi-Fi device, but that did nothing .
I'm at a loss....could it be a bug with the latest official ROM release?

[Q] Problem with WiFi

Hi!
I have a really weird problem with my SGS.
When I'm installing ANY firmware (I've tried every single one) except of my original FW "JPB", I can't get my WiFi working.
There are actually 2 types of Wifi behavior on the different ROMs. The first one is when you're connecting to the Wifi and you can actually open Google.com, Android Market, etc, normally. But when it comes to a "heavy" sites such as youtube, wifi connection just freezes and nothing helps before you'll close the browser and reconnect to the access point.
On some other roms you're connecting to Wifi without any errors too, but you can't actually open any site at all. And only on FW "JPB" (which is russian official) there is no such a problem.
Also Samsung Apps doesn't work on other ROMs, I even thought that it can be related somehow... I know that there's no logic here, so I'm really confused.
Oh, and even if I'm installing Voodoo lagfix on my official firmware I'm still getting into this trouble
I really want to hear your opinion, so please don't hesitate to reply.
Thanks in advance,
Jay

[Q] Wifi on cm9, poor connection

What's up guys, first of all I've looked up for that problem on the board and none of the topics are helpful.
Well, I've got SGS with CM9 nigtly 2012-05-06 with the IcyGlitch kernel. I've checked different modems and kernels and nothing. The problem is connected with the wifi. However it is only about my router. Somehow my phone and router don't like each other. The wifi speed is really slow, to download something is a miracle, facebook sometimes even doesn't want to log in. The problem started after I installed cm9. I've tried many builds of CM9 and none of them helped. I don't wanna wipe the phone and install another rom, I just want to fix it, if everybody can work without any problems, I also can. My router is D-Link 524. I've tried other cell phones and they work fine with the wifi. Also I've tried other wifi connection like at my university and it works cool.
What can you advise me to do ?

[Q] Yet Another wifi ICS issue

Hey peeps, ti me for my first post.
Well i upgraded tO stock germanICS a couple of days back. Everything was working fine until yesterday. WiFi is behaving weird, i can connect with no probs at home but i've noticed that the download arrow from the WiFi icon on status bar is on and off all the time, draining the battery faster than expected(e.g. rom 100% to 65% 3 hours almost no use). So i spoke with a friend of mine, kind of a geek, he told me it could be so me kind of compatibility issue between ICS and old router's firmware. So i went to a bar nearby to check if i could reproduce the same behaviour and everything was working normal.
Did Anyone here had anything similar? I've been surfing to do so me research, but all i've found is so me peoples probs with WiFi not connecting at all and some sII users withe their WiFi module broken.
Thanks in advance!

Also...
I´ve read somewhere that a factory wipe solved some wifi´s peoples probs. As i´m under german ICS LPY i know i´ll be likely bricking the note if i wipe, what leads to teh next question...is it possible to flash a kernell(without the bug) without being root?
Cheers,
VR
edit
So i´ve been reading quite some info about franco´s and speedmod´s kernels, and it´s so confusing for starters.My last question remains , is it possible to flash those for a non rooted device? Anyone that is running it tried wiping? Results?
Thx again
Edit 2
After some research i now know i need to root for any new kernel flash, as i read my post i´m starting to feel i´ve lost my head somewhere, so bear with me, hehehe. Also found out some people tried wiping with franco´s kernel with no probs, so i almost have the info i was looking for. So, in case i go root and get franco´s kernel up and running, do you think my WIFI issues might dissapear after wiping?

I have the same bug...with wifi also the os android buy draining ny battery so bad...im on stick rom gb 2.3.6 with the ssme oroblem....any solution?

wifi-3g switch error in playstore stock LG O2x 2.3.4 gb

Hi guys! I'm having some trouble with my phone for a while now and can't seem to understand why. Basically after some use of wifi or 3G data i just leave the phone in standby and when i try to use again wifi to download some app it just doesn't(starts downloading but the traffic is zero and after a few minutes it says "error downloading..."). If i switch to 3G it works but even this doesn't work sometimes(for example today i was in my car and wanted to use maps app with 3G and it didn't work). Oh and sometimes i get wifi error in settings and the only way to get over these problems is to reboot .Any advice is more than welcomed
P.S. i was rooted with v20c, got rid of root and installed official v20c again(from lg) then updated to v20s(had a bad baseband) and then back to v20e which is my latest firmware for vodafone romania.

try to change the BB/RIL combination....this is usually the issue....
for example: I use the V20C Russian BB/RIL combination though in India it is V20H. It does not matter which Baseband is installed as long as it suits ur necessities and needs.
Hope it helps

@SREEPRAJAY will try this but i think it's a bit more deep because i get some serious freeze and before i started rooting and things like this i didn't have such problems i am going to think twice about messing with the software on my next phone.

i flashed the stock v20s rom on my optimus and with bb 512 i still have the issue. if for some reason i start downloading some app from market over wifi and the connection is lost(suppose i'm not at home anymore) and i switch to 3g to continue it works but later when i get near a wifi hot-spot and try to download or update some app i no longer can. browsing in play store and web works perfectly in this situation but it's weird that this happens.

Tried another baseband and ril (v10d bb and v20o ril) and am quite satisfied with them but the problem persists and it's really annoying .It's like from system boot if i use my wi-fi to update my apps from play store and switch to 3g and back to wi-fi just once, i have to reboot my device because downloading from play store no longer works.
If anybody has the same problem and found out the solution please post because rebooting is just awful :-<

solved: it's wi-fi internet source related
