5.8 Ghz a/n wifi

Can anyone confirm that their Galaxy Tab can connect to wifi on the 5.8 GHz range?
I'm trying to pair it to an N-only router that is using WPA2 with AES on the 5 GHz range, channel width set to 40, and it doesn't seem able to even see the network.

Make your router have a channel 12 or lower. The tab is b or g compatable.

Ahhh no. I connect to my wifi n 5.8 signal all the time. It does take longer to show in the wifi settings field as it scans for g networks first.
I use a linksys e3000 with g on my 2.4 channel and n on my 5.8 channel. Tab connets to n all the time.

Okay, I got this one figured out. It turns out my Tab won't connect to 5GHz channels 149 and 157 from my router.
It turns out that 149 and 157 are allowed in the US, but not in Europe according to this article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels
When I flashed my modem to JPZ to enable calls on my AT&T tab, did that also affect my Wifi? If so, is there a way to enable calls and still support all US 5 GHz channels?

I can make/receive calls when I am at home on wifi. Jk3 modem here.

You're welcome. That was a solution. If you're smarter, why ask?

You were stating bogus info saying the tab only does b and g when right on the box it states wifi n. I then gave a description of my setup for reference. Not being smarter just truthful. Oh, and i didnt even ask a question so your reply makes no sense. Stop being a jackass on the internet just because you got corrected about something.

I use JPZ modem and the latest Dip7 rom and i can make and receive calls while my wifi is on and connected on wifi n 5.8. My width is 40 and my channel is on auto. You mentioned something about europe being different, maybe the router you have doesnt broadcast out at the settings you are trying?
Hope this helps you.

Could you try setting your router to channel 149 and seeing if it works still?

Your box is smarter than my box, because my box doesn't give any info like that. You are smarter than the at&t website and Samsung's too, because they only claim wifi connectivity. You are smarter than everyone, but you could use an attitude adjustment, because a solution different than one that a god like you has doesn't make it wrong. We are only here to share ideas to people looking for advice. Don't be profane or rude please.

Terrible speeds over WiFI

I have 100Mbps internet, and a Cisco EA4500 router
Galaxy Nexus gets around 30Mbps over WiFi.
Nexus 4 only gets 1.03Mbps down over WiFi
anyone else getting really atrocious speeds over WiFi?

Speedtest
Also, when trying to download apps from Play Store, small apps are taking forever to download.
So it's not just some incompatibility with Speedtest

I really wanna keep myself off of XDA, the more and more I read the more and more I wish I kept my SGS2 ):
Good thing I have 7 days to refund

I have no idea what you mean by "WiFi Canal"
but if you're talking about changing my WiFi channel, there is no need - every wireless device in my house gets great speeds:
Galaxy Nexus (x2, 2 family members have them)
Nexus 7
Asus EeePC 1000HE
MediaCentre PC
so it's nothing to do with my router, or my WiFi configuration. It's the phone.

(Try McDonalds wifi too ?)

I have a feeling it's your router and/or firewall settings.
For example, on my friends connection It'll take me 5mintues to DL a 3mb app from the playstore, but the speedtest is just fine. At home, it'll download in a second or two.
While the phone is the only thing experiencing the issue, your router is the only thing that could be causing it. Have you tried anyone elses wifi?

[TROUBLESHOOTING] [VZW ONLY] Data Issues AOSP/CM

With all the CM/AOSP clones having similar issues with Data connectivity (lack of handoff, Roaming, improper network names) I thought a thread with the experiences would be a great tool for the Dev's to refer to to help solve this issue.
VERIZON ONLY PLEASE!!!!!
Please use the following format:
ROM:
Kernel:
Radio:
Roaming indicator: Y/N
1X/3G/LTE Handoff Working: Y/N
Comments: Any steps you have tried to get it working (The verizon APN update.zip floating around, ERI fix, ECT)
LTE Discovery Screenshot
I'll update as I can with confirmed working ROM's/Solutions.

I'm stock 5.0.1on Verizon I haven't rooted or unlocked because of these problemsthese problems seems as if at times phone freezes up has 3G or Sometimes 4G but still no Internet connection then finally after sometimes 5 minutes it connects up and it's fine it's not network because my wife's Droid 4 gets 4G kind of embracing. Also seems slow to hook up but decrypting may solve that. Are these the problems you are talking about or is my phone jacked?

This happens on my T-Mobile version. Sorry. I know the OP only asked for Verizon people.

Where is this verizon apn update.zip you speak of? The biggest issue I'm having is not being able to get data through my network extender. I have tried stock, aosp, cm12, all roms have the same issue. Pretty sure its an apn issue.

Not sure what problem is but my droid maxx was same way you have to turn on WiFi to get data but voice does work.

That is the issue.. well part of it.. so I answered my own question.

I have a Moto Droid Maxx, and am able to do calls and data at the same time....Can the new nexus 6 on VZW not do this?

Obviously your other phones get data? I'm just asking because the newest network extenders are no longer capable of data connectivity...

I believe all the regular extenders are all the same I know someone who just got one and it's the same as mine. I have had several android phones some work some don't. The Note 4 does Nexus doesn't. Makes no difference you need wifi to make them work anyway so you have data

Guys... Whoever is around and on verizon.... Try adding this to your build.prop and report back.. fixed my issues....

This does fix most issues with roaming and data on Verizon.. Confirmed

Internet Stick and Auto brightness

Hello.
In the very beginning of using my mtcb device, there was an option in the settings with auto brightness. It worked with the illumination wire.
I don't know really, what I changes, but it isn't working anymore or let's say, the option isn't there anymore.
What I have done is switching between different Roms and changed a few things in factory settings. Can there be the problem?
The second one: anybody here using a 4g stick? Is it possible? Which model are you using?
I am really unhappy my 3g stick, working with my old parrot Android device, is not working on this one. Which ones are you using?
Thanks for the help

I just ordered a Huawei wingle.
It's an USB-powered Wifi-stick.
It turns on by it self when it get's power, and then it makes a wifi-hotspot, that the radio connects to automaticly.
(I haven't recived it yet, but i hope that it works excatly as i described).

wifi isn't a problem, it's build in. i really just interested in 3g or better 4g

I'm sure it has to do with which kernel modules were compiled in. And as far as I know, we don't have any true original android ROMs for our units, so that's not likely to change soon.

Wireless connectivity speed issue

Hey guys, just got my note 8 after not having owned an Android since the SGS6 Edge and I'm noticing that my LTE and Wifi speeds are quite slow. I also own an iPhone X (business phone, please don't hate me) and on that I get well over 100mbps download on LTE and on wifi I get on average 70-90mbps download speeds. However after running speed tests on my note I'm only able to achieve 15mpbs or less on LTE and 40mbps or less on wifi. BTW I have an unlocked N8 direct from Samsung and I'm running on AT&T network.
Also I've done a fairly thorough search for answers already befofe making this post and yielded no helpful results. I'm not new to xda by any means so if there's a thread I've missed then please just direct me to it. Not my intent to create a duplicate post.

At this point I've reset the default apn profile in settings and looked around the settings for anything else that might be useful but that was all I could find. Still no luck increasing data speeds however.
Sent from my SM-N950U1 using Tapatalk

If you use the same wi-fi and your Note 8 download speed is lower than iPhone's X it means that either Note 8 connections are slower or there is an issue with your device.
Do you have any other Android devices to test with the same wifi network? If the other Android phone downloads at speeds similar to iPhone X's one, than there is an issue with your Note 8.

Did you get or was there a need to have the IMEI number of your unlocked device provisioned for use on the att network? In respect of LTE speeds.
Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

I'm not sure about IOS, but on android background apps can kill your speed scores. Try closing all apps and try again. I can go from 300mb down to 97mb with apps running in the background. Just using the recent apps->close all should suffice.
