do you use any apps like greenpower or juicedefender. Perhaps wifi control is enabled. Perhaps a different baseband can help. You find some odin-flashable in the wiki

You can't have it for 2 years, cause it is 1,5 years old phone about the problem..try changing settings in router?

Fix for wifi issue with Belkin Routers mainly
It's a problem with the DHCP leasing of the router. Possibly Belkin routers are particular culprits.
- If you change DHCP leasing from 'forever' to '2 days' it fixes the problem and you don't need to use a Static IP.
In other words, for some wierd reason the wifi on 2.3.6 has a problem on some routers with the 'forever' DHCP setting.
I also had the same problem and once changed dhcp lease time it got resolved..
Do this and confirm... It is a bug in 2.3.6 actually... Previous 2.3.x and later version 3xx dont have this issue.
Hope it helps..

In earlier versions of CM9 (I'm not sure if it was changed) scale was simply different - you could have 4 bars on GB, but only 2 on CM9 for same signal strength. It's better to use dedicated app to test such things (WiFi Analyzer for example).
As for final fixes... (off-topic) compass never worked for me on any rom/kernel on ICS or JB (it was fine only on GB). It shows something, but that's definitely not a right direction (moving phone only a bit gives odd results). I wonder if that will ever be fixed.

Yes I using belkin router.Why to change router settings if in stock 2.3.4 works.( is'n another method?)
I have a question. Is ok to install 2.3.6 Stock rom and baseband 2.3.4 ( is possible?the wifi will work?)

The method to change i have given in my last post.... in 2.3.4 i never had this issue... its a bug in 2.3.6 as per my searching...
And y u want to downgrade to a lower baseband...dont do it...ppl are flashing new updates from samsung only to get the baseband...use xxkpm baseband which comes with 2.3.6... check my signature in previous post bcz now i am in mobile...that one is best..try...or goto xda wiki and sekect which baseband u want...link is also in my sig...
Hope its clear now...

Yes many people have been having issues with poor Wifi strength in JB. The ROM developers are indeed working on it.. Another way might be to flash a latest baseband on to your cell.

Hi all members, i think i'm not the only one facing that wifi problem on cm10 & 10.1. The problem is that the wifi is suddenly broken at anytime...when i'm connecting to my wifi, i got the blue icon in the status bar...but after a certain time, the icon suddenly turn to grey which we dont have wifi access anymore but in setting, it says "connected"...to fix the problem, i have to disable the wifi then push the WPS button on my router and the WPS button in the wifi setting...I hope someone have the solution. Thanks

I see from your signature that you are with Temasek's ROM (this guy is really amazing) with Kowalski(another amazing one)....
why dont you ask this question in the Temasek's general discussion thread....might be addressed quickly than this seperate thread which might be overlooked.
Thanks

Try to flash DHCP Client and WPA Supplicant, you can find it in Kowalski Kernel thread.
The grey and blue colours have got to do with google sync feature. Blue: syncing. Grey: stop syncing.

[Q] Internet not working after flashin Cyanmobile [20/02/2013]

After flashing the cyanmobile X rom (latest official one) my internet stoped working. No data over mobile network (yeah checked the APNs and all) and no internet over wifi either. It connects to wifi but simply no internet. I did a "ifconfig wlan0" which showed that it had the dhcp ip assigned by my router. The problem is not with the router because other android devices are working just fine.
Any solution to this? please help!!
Thank you!
Change baseband. If this happens after a clean install, baseband is the only possibility I know about.

You have to set correct permissions to these files.

WIFI hotspot on CM10 ROM
Folks.. some info to add to the fray..
My WiFi is working, stable and connects every time.
I've also got a working WiFi hot spot (see edit at bottom)
I'm doing this on cute_prince CM10 build 3...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265060
With the instructions from post 1 of the WiFi fix
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49035215&postcount=1
I'm using NOPE v2 kernel 750mhz
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=42314934&postcount=1
(I had the WiFi connection problems using prometheus CM10 kernels -I don't know enough to know why the difference with NOPE)
To get a WiFi hotspot - (I saw someones post in the desire c forums -cant remember who or what thread, but thanks!) to try the Barnacle WiFi tether app:
(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.szym.barnacle&hl=en-GB)
- You need to enable "Skip wpa_supplicant" in its settings. It does mean however that the hot spot is an unsecured network... I confirmed the hot spot to work with my windows PC.. will try with my nexus 7 later.
I've got "Keep WiFi on during sleep" set to "never" as i like to turn it on/off as required. It reconnects every time. If i leave the WiFi on and put the phone to sleep (i.e it`ll disconnect the WiFi whilst asleep), the WiFi will reconnect fine every time i wake it up. No rebooting required.
Hopefully this is a solution to peeps who want a usable WiFi, and for any devs trying to solve this issue..
BTW thanks all devs for cooking some nice ROMs and Kernels to keep this little phone going. A few months ago I was ready to bin the desire c and the stock slow sense!
obs
edit- WiFi hotspot works fine with my win 7 pc- i can see and connect to the hotspot, but on my nexus 7 2013 i can't see the hot spot at all
edit 2 - Looks like the issue with the nexus 7 is that android devices are not able to connect to ad-hoc wifi networks which is what the barnacle app creates!
