Lately I've been having problems with keeping a constant wifi my phone will be showing a full signal and I'll be downloading a big file or a movie and it just drops to no signal I lose the connection on my download and a few second later it goes back to full signal I haven't change router settings or anything like that but I did switch to the latest build of miui running the modem and kernel that were in the rom. I have searched and haven't found anything about the problem I'm having I was just wondering if anyone else has Had the same problem or maybe some suggestions on how to fix it I'm just hopping it's not a hardware problem because I am 3 months past warranty.

Has anyone seen this before? I am getting a -0.00 results in SpeedTest.net in my N1. Actually, all the tests that I ran appear to be very inconsistent, going from 3.5Mbps to the -0.00, from one test to the next, so I don't know if it is my phone or the t-mobile network. I did a couple of test over wifi and those were very consistent results.
I started having this problem after flashing Rod's MIUI mod, and then going back to CM 6.1.1. I did a complete reinstall of CM and flashed the radio and no changes. I am not really aggravated by this problem, but it is kind of annoying, as my data transfer is very slow some times.
Any comments will be highly appreciated.
I get that sometimes if I have the app open and switch between wifi and cell network, or vise versa. I just close the app and then reopen and it works fine.
You might want to flash your old radio back (if you changed it).
You can also try flashing the radio prior to install of new rom.
It's tmobile network. Cuz you gotta watch the data connection indicator on the status bar. If theres no arrows go up and down the connection is weak, very weak or mostly no connections at all.

Well i use my phone for work alot and it requires internet. I'm currently using the MilkyS ROM and the first time I flashed it my phone was probably slower than the stock 2.1 but internet was working fine. So i eventually got sick of the speed because games would lag and even general navigating. When I reflashed it the speed was fine it was great infact however my 3g started playing up it shows the 3g symbol, the APN is fine but the data connection is very unstable it might work for 2 minutes then drop out and stop working for 10 and the 3g symbol sometimes disappears when this happens! I'm becoming extremely frustrated please throw all your ideas at me. is it the modem i have to install with milkyS? will it solve the problem if i don't flash with the modem? thanks!!

Well buddy i think the problem is with the carrier !!
My SGS also have the same problem ,i found it out that some places couldn't get perfect 3G coverage that makes our signal reception to stutter,I changed the option to GSM only from GSM auto(PRL)in Jetpack v5.1 JVS this made the signal stable but my 3G is gone....
its even the same in JVQ too and my friend's SGS also does the same,it even did happen to my old MotoDroid/Milestone.So i think its a carrier issue...!
I don't think it is I think it has something to do with modem compatibility because I get the 3g symbol and every so often internet works for a bit of time but then cuts out and it just shows 3g sending but not receiving and sometimes the 3g symbol will disappear. I only had this problem when I tried to reflash the ROM. My reason for reflashing was slow phone speed for some reason but internet worked flawlessly. I had the same issue with the internet with the darky's rom too so I'm not sure of the issue but it's bugging me!!

If you are confident that its a modem issue then try CM7 and these threads maybe useful!

Try these.
As a quick and temporary solution, you can always return back to your stock firmware.
Go to samfirmware.com and download the original one.
I searched through this forum and saw a few threads but they were a little different than what I keep coming up with. I was wondering if anyone else is having this issue. Every once in a while my Note will switch over to Emergency Calls Only mode. If I go and enable airplane mode then disable airplane mode my connections will reset and everything will come back. I don't know if this is related to the SIM card, or the SIM slot on the phone. I feel like this is a software related issue. Generally this only seems to happen at work or when I'm in the basement for a long time. It's as if the phone is getting No Signal or a very weak signal for an extended amount of time and then finally switches to Emergency Calls Only mode, but doesn't come back. Also sometimes it will go into this mode and most things won't work, but for some reason the Facebook app can still access the Data Connection. I'll go to status sometimes and it will show Mobile Network State as Connected where Service State will say out of service or something to that extent. I even had Mobile network type showing as HSPA
Anyone else encountered this issue?
I am having the same issue, and this is driving me nuts! Usually it happens when I turn on wifi for a long while when my phone in screen sleeping mode. How to fix? not wanna restore my Note again as I did this step for 3 times already because of this issue.
The same issue. How to fix????????? Thanks a lot!

i've been facing the same issue since past 4 weeks. after switching over from stunner ics aokp rom to stock gb and now my phone displays no signal (bars) at all.. however this is only for a while and i do get reception after 10 mins or so.. now i'm on official ics and still face the same issue..!!?
same issue here, its getting frustrating i'm missing business calls because of this!
I had it over a few days on GB too, I tried reseating the SIM slot and it sort of fixed itself.
I am not sure whether that helped or a shutdown + battery pull is the savior.

So I have noticed this problem since the 4.3 upgrades have been out and it continues through the 4.4.2.
I have this problem at home on WiFi, when I am at home I have terrible cell coverage usually bouncing between no coverage and one bar. It seems that when I am bouncing between no cell coverage and one bar my WiFi drops and immediately reconnects.
I had originally thought that my access point was the culprit as I hadn't noticed it happening when I dropped in and out of cell coverage. So I replaced my WiFi system as the one I was on was 8-10 years old. So upgraded to new hardware (WiFi) and tried both 2.4g and 5g and problem persisted.
I have used stock roms, and others, currently on ViperOne 5.8. I have updated to the most current firmware along the way, I even flashed a full RUU and started over last weekend. In addition I have this issue on all three devices in the house (all HTC One M7's).
So today I tried something I should have thought of sooner. I put the phone in airplane mode and then turned on WiFi and noticed that the problem went away, consistent WiFi, no WiFi drop, bounce, etc.
So anyone have an idea as to why this would happen and how I can solve it or is it something that is not solvable except by HTC/Google?
Thanks all.

I think this is an HTC bug. I've seen many users here complain of this on the Sprint model. I have the same issue as well. I have mine set so I can see if I am on 4G or 3G even while I am connected to WiFi. I notice this bug happens exclusively (and nearly every time) when the phone goes from 4G -> 3G.
I had a similar issue but when i updated radios it went away

I don't have 4G in my area so that isn't a factor for me but I can see potentially this happening between 2G and 3G and I am usually roaming here so that would make sense.
Thx.

Most of the people I've seen with this problem had it start with the latest radio or the one before it. The latest radio definitely does not fix it here.
This also happens to me at home while connected to my WiFi , really annoying ,or sometimes if I'm at work .no WiFi connection ,it'll show I have 3g but won't let me load pages.

I had that problem as well, I even called Sprint, and they sent me an Airave which is on it's way now. Yet, the tower near my house (6 miles away) was fixed-ish today and it stops that whole reconnect and disconnect garbage. Plus, I get lte in about 80% of my house. This wifi mess was going on since December and I put my phone on roaming most of the time to make it a little more stable.
Just reporting back. I reverted to the previous radio this morning and my connection seemed to stay on. Not sure if I'm trippin or if it really is working better .gomna test it out some more and flash the newest radio and check if there's a difference.

Hi All, I've searched around and can't find threads that are exactly what I'm experience, so I'm hoping this is something the community can help with. I've been experiencing this problem since flashing CM11 a few months ago. My wifi has no problem searching and connecting, but intermittently while on wifi, I'll notice that I'll only send data and not receive it. Waiting 15-30 seconds will usually have it come back, or disabling/enabling will also fix it, but it's never consistent. I notice when the phone is plugged in, the wifi connection stays pretty good.
Just to clarify, I am not losing the wifi signal and the phone stays connected to the network. This happens in all kinds of wifi (whether home or work). Any help would be appreciated!

I dont know if its the same in CM11 but in stock rom you have some wifi options to reduce battery usage, maybe turning them off could help? If not you should make a nandroid baclup of your current setup and flash another rom temporarily to see if the issue persist. Btw are you using a stable build of CM11 or nightly builds? If you are using nightlty builds, you might want to try with a stable version.
Is this always happening when using routers of the same brand? I already had this kind of issue but it was with my One X not my M7. The only way I was able to use the wifi without making the routers hang (every d-link router) was to turn off the N band (5Ghz) and only use the 2.4 Ghz bands (a/b/g). Maybe it worth a try... but I never heard of this issue for the M7.

I tried the Wifi optimization option and it's the same performance. I'm using a stable build of CM11 and wanted to see if there's something I'm missing before flashing again.
I'ts a little bit difficult to tell which routers this happens with, as I can recall only having consistent wifi traffic once in the past 3-4 months. I've switched back and forth between 2.4ghz and 5ghz on my home router to the same issue as well.
Thanks for the suggestions...may just have to resort to a new ROM...
