I do not know the answer. But I have question - did you tried with other phone, and it has better WIFI reception than SGS A?

Yes I have tested the WiFi reception with an Iphone, works much better, and with a laptop it's really great but that's not expected.
I have lousy reception even if I'm only in the next room of the router.

I have almost the same problem too, its like the reception is getting weaker than before

I don't think it's getting weaker just was weak from the beginning.

hmmm i don't use wi fi so don't know about its reception ! btw just curious are there any build.prop tweaks that could increase wi fi reception ?

I read somewhere that this problem was with some models of SGSA...... Try going to the Samsung service center and ask them for a solution, but my friend did the same this

Better get it replaced by qualified service personnel rather than messing it up yourself

I have noticed the same, my 9070p receives a weak signal or no signal where my laptop receives an adequate to strong signal.

Yep, search and read the forums before posting a question that has been answered hundreds of times.

FIrstly I do know what you are talking about, and I suggest if you want help then don't be a smart ass.
This seems to be a problem until you sucessfully connect to any network, I had to fresh reboot my router before I could connect to it, did exactly as you explain, and exactly what others talk about in the threads. For me however, once I was able to finally establish a clean connection to any WIFI network from that point on it was fine, bad signal strength but didn't constantly switch, and then finally give you a message saying authenication required.
In addition to this, I followed the following guides/fixes and either of these two work. You need to ROOT your phone though.

I did that already o_o

When I've seen this occur, it is generally as the wifi isn't in range or barely in range, or I'm having an issue on my router. The wifi strength on an Xperia Z is pretty weak. I ended up buying a new wifi router for home it was so bad, and has been a lot better. But I did have this same behaviour when it was having trouble connecting.
When you are trying to connect, is the signal strength it is showing 4 bars, or is it low? Or varying a lot?

I'm next to the router and the signal is almost full !!
But it keep on saying obtaining IP address then it disappear
Although another devices are connected to the same router without any problems

Hard reset of what, the phone or router?

Hard reset for the phone cause other devices are connected to the router without any problems!!

WiFi speed is slower after sleep.

Ok, so have noticed this using the speedtest.net app.
When the phone is brought out of stand by / sleep, my download speed is 3 meg,which is slow , if I turn Wi-Fi off and back on, and redo speed test, I get my full speed of 60-70 meg.
I have tested to see if turning the power savers off make a difference,and have checked that keep Wi-Fi on during sleep is on. Nothing seems to make a difference.
Any comments. ??

I don't use wifi that much so I can't say I've noticed. I have noticed however, when my phone's been asleep, I often have issues with mobile data not being on ... It is fine for large periods of time when I'm using my phone more regular but if I leave it for a while it usually says "Turning On" in settings and often never changes until I tuen it off and let it settle lol.

I have exactly the same issue as you describe. I'm on the Europe version.
Only turning on and off wifi gets it back to max performance....

Oh good. I'm glad I'm not alone...I am in the UK, wonder if it's just related to Europe ?

I don't expect that it is region related. Maybe nobody checks the data speed with speedtest.net....
Is there another app to test your data speed because maybe it is related to speedtest.net?

Tested it with another speed test app and the results are the same.... So it is related to the device itself...

Yep I have also tested with another, and its the same .
Just had a load of play store updates, slow download speed, turn WiFi off and on and then the speed dramatically improves.
Definitely a problem.

UPDATE.
Well, today I did a phone reset...this appears to have resolved the problem.
A bit of a pain, even with HTC backup, it's still taken me a few hours to get everything set up.
Will see if the Wi-Fi remains sorted over the next few days.

I have the same issue with a HTC One bought through Dial-a-phone and on the O2 network. I sent my first HTC One back
for a replacement, but the replacement has the same problem, so it's not a fault with the handset hardware per-se, more likely
the wifi chipset or firmware.
I have also found that the wifi does not automatically switch between access points on the same SSID, i.e while walking
through a building - it just hangs on to the on it associated with first and won't switch to a better AP even if you're standing
right underneath it. Very irritating. I have found the app 'WiFi Fixer' to be of some use in reconnecting. That also seems to
act the same as turning the wifi on and off, so avoiding the low speed issue.
Interestingly, in my testing, while the speed test app has been showing the downstream limited to 2mit, transfers back and forth
to my local NAS have been fast. It's almost as if the 2mbit 'cap' only applies to traffic going through the default gateway (usually
a home router or the like) but the problem manifests on corporate LANs too with sophisticated Cisco equipment, so you can't really
blame the LAN.
I've logged a ticket with HTC which was allegedly 'escalated' but I'm not that hopeful of a positive outcome!

Interesting that you seem to think that it is the phone straight away, probably not, very likely to be other wifi networks in your area affecting your signal on the router. I no that the signal is not the greatest but these sort of things are likely to affect it more.

WiFi problem

Okay, so I'm having a WiFi problem. We just got the Comcast arris modem/router combo, which I know isn't the best, but it was parents choice.. so I'm stuck. I get very slow WiFi speeds , .5 -4 mbps depending on closeness to router. My family and friends with other phones such as iPhones and galaxy phones are getting around 20mbps down. Things I have tried are - flashing WiFistock.zip fix, restarting router, changing channel on router, changing secruity type, disconnecting and reconnecting, restarting phone, I'm nof sure what else I can try.. I can't stream HD Video anymore and I used to watch a lot of it.. any idea and help would be appreciated , thanks in advance !

Have you tried disabling Wifi Battery Optimization in the advanced settings of your phone?

Could just be an upright router-phone problem. Phone gets full true speeds in other router coonnections. Don't see how my router could be working for others but not my HTC one.. maybe I'll just have to live with it

I don't know if this helps, but try setting your modem to b/g/n mixed rather than N only (or if its set on b/g/n, change it to N only).
I had problems with wifi and mixed modes solved them.

Will try, thanks for the tip!

Change the DSN to global and try.

Still, the problem persists. I have done as much as I can think of. Maybe I'll call Comcast and ask for a software update if it's available, not sure what else to do.
