Just purchased the Atrix HD yesterday and when standing only 10 feet away from my router it constantly connects and disconnects. So far this has been the only issue for me. Any hacks yet for better wi-fi strength?

i dont know if its called att wifi app or att hotspot app but i disabled att hotspot app and after that i never had any problem with wifi!! there is a Starbucks real close to my house and they have att hotspot so when ever i drive around it would connect to att hotspot and i would have hard time connecting to my home wifi!! just go to your apps option inside settings find att hotspot and disable it since you cannot uninstall this app!! it might help!!:good:

I had same problem. The wifi turns off 2 seconds after I turn the wifi on. I did factory reset. After the reset, it seems it solve the problem but I had other issues so I did an exchange since it was with in 14 days of the purchase. I don't have that problem with the new HD.
Try doing factory reset....

Factory reset performed.. issue still exists. Maybe my 2nd AHD will be better.

I'm having the exact same problem. Mine will connect for a period of time then just starts a wifi boot loop, as I would describe it. It tries to connect endlessly and won't unless I'm right next to the router. A factory reset didn't fix it either.

Same thing happened to me till I disabled att wifi app plus a few other. Then rebooted. It is annoying though :-\

Hmm. Switching wifi frequency from auto to 2.4 only seems to have fixed it.

I never accepted the at&t wifi app agreement, so it was never running, but still had the same issue. It seems better now that its forced to 2.4ghz. I still have range issues. my Atrix 4G would show two bars of signal where the Atrix HD connects and disconnects constantly. Its like i have to be sitting right in front of the router to stay connected.

I wasn't having any issues last night after switching to 2.4 only. But when I woke up it was disconnected and wouldn't connect again til I was right by the router. Hopefully a software update fixes this issue.

I had this problem with the Atrix 2. Resetting my router solved the problem.

Wow, that's cool. Didn't move, switched to 2.4 only and my signal strength doubled and my speed seems noticeably better.
Now if this helps from oovoo and Skype constantly disconnecting life will be good. To be fair the inspire is also disconnecting at random too.
I had this problem as well - it dropped if my wi-fi was 2 bars or so, and it seemed to fluctuate. Tried the 2.4 only mode and it seemed to help a little, but I still lost connection frequently at only 2 bars. It would drop and look like wi-fi restarted and then connect again at 3 bars.

I took the phone back to costco and got a new one. The phone rep connected the new phone to his wifi. I walked to the other side of the warehouse and never lost connection. Came home and the phone has not disconnected once. Must have been a hardware issue.

Wouldn't the better option be to fix your Wifi so it's not using horrendously bad security? WEP encryption is so badly broken these days that it's like leaving the door locked with the window wide open.

Depends on which router you have, I'd need the brand and model number of it. If you have a modem and a router separate, I just need the router (the router is the one with several network ports in the back).

WPA and WPA2 are worse just so you know. I can crack either in a matter of minutes with reaver/aircrack

No, they're really not, especially WPA2.
You claim minutes, but it only takes seconds to crack WEP, so uh, yeah. And as far as I know, WPA2 doesn't have any major exploits against itself yet, unless WPS is enabled.
Is anyone else finding that when using location based wifi, when re entering a saved location it doesn't turn wifi back on I have to turn wifi back on manually, then sometimes I have to select the wifi network and select connect. It's starting to become a bit of a pain.

If it's your home network, have you tried to reboot the router? Or to assign a static IP-address to it - one of the earlier Xperias had the same problem until a later update.

I haven't tried that yet, will reboot the router first and go from there. When I had the XZ it used to do it then, but not as much as this does.

Hello everyone I tried searching before posting this but I couldn't really find any good info
Ive stock 4,3 not rooted and I've no idea about my bootloader but most probably locked
I'm having a sudden Wifi disconnect like each 20 minutes and when I don't have a disconnect the net is terribly slow!
I'm wondering anyone else having same troubles or it's just my bad luck...

I had problem with my wifi on android 4.2.2. Problems were likely like yours. Yesterday i have flashed my phone to stock notbranded android 4.3 and it works like charm. Maybe you should think about also updating your phone with this ROM ?

Stupid question but is could it be a router problem, since you also had problems with other versions? Or do you have this problem with other wifi networks too?

Hello,
Since the official update to Android 4.3 I also get issues with wlan when I am at work.
It might connect normally at first
But after some time I notice that I do not longer get data over it and most of the time it does no longer find the wlan in the settings, everyone else however can still connect fine, however most people are using iPhones but Even a galaxy s3 had no issues so it is no issue with the access point.
I also had it 2 times that I couldn't even disable wlan anymore (active again after reopening the settings)
Funny thing is that I have no issues with my home wlan that is a fritzbox.
On android 4.2.2 I never had an issue.
Everything stock, no root.
I am using a smartwatch 2. Not sure why it got mentioned here.
Check the router for a seeing that users 2 channels at once to increase bandwidth (not a dual broadcast setting for n and g or 2.4 and 5GHz). I have seen this problem on several android phones when enabled.

I have added an OC kernel to 2.5 which is board level spec for HTC M8. The kernel will run at lowest freq until it is needed or the governor is changed or a boost is called for.
Can't connect to WiFi with OC 2.8.
Does this change your WiFi Mac address?
Moved to General as there is not really any development in this thread...just a link to another thread.
Thanks BD619

Had to change my router settings to allow my phone access to WiFi again after flashing. It changed my WiFi Mac address.
Not sure if that's normal, but if you can't connect to the internet after flashing, and you have LAN set up, you'll need to redo router settings.
