I am running cloudy g3. I get anywhere from 25-50 mbps on all my devices (iPhone 6, laptop, iPad, Samsung tab). But on my g2 I only get 3.5mbps, yet I still get upload speeds on it in the 15-20 range. I've tried everything from resetting my modem, had xfinity come out and service my home, flashed different roms. Any help would be great.
Anyone?

I don't have a phone I can tether to, so I got a Clear Spot personal 4 G hotspot and I've got a fantastic signal everywhere I've tried so far in Boston. Seems I'm surrounded by their towers. Now I'll never put this tablet down...I'm addicted.
ClearSpot 4G Hotspot
My wife and I got the Sierra Wireless Overdrive from Sprint, 4g/3g. Right around where we live it's unbelievably fast thru 4g, 13mbps downstream - .8 up. Can network up to 5 devices via WiFi (B/G)at once. We use it on the road to access web, etc with laptops, notebooks. We recommend it to anyone and everyone. At least anyone and everyone who have Sprint, not sure who else carries it.
Ok guys, I have been struggling with this issue for some months now, and was wondering if any other One owners are experiencing similar issues as me when it comes to wifi speeds on your phone. Let me first explain my issue, and then what I have done to troubleshoot and narrow down my possibilities.
So, for the past few months, as far as I can remember, I have been plagued by EXTREMELY SLOW wifi speeds. I'm talking 500kbs download speeds on a 50mbps home network. Whats even more bizzare is I have 10mbps upload speed on the wifi network. This does not pertain to any partcular rom. Sense, GPE, results are ALWAYS the same.
Now for the troubleshooting I have performed: I have tried various firmwares, radios, different roms, and of course I matched the current firmware to what rom version I am running. I have tried disconnecting the network and reconnecting, turned off Wifi Optimization in advanced wifi settings, I have tried resetting and powercycling the router, and have even switched internet service providers recently in the last week and am still experiencing painfully slow download speeds on wifi. And before someone tells me it may be a hardware failure, these results are consistently the same on my wife's HTC One. and my Nexus 7 ironically has blazing fast speeds.
So basically, I want to see If I am alone on this issue, or if others are experiencing similar issues with Wifi speeds being slow regardless of internet network speed. And why am I getting ridiculously fast upload speeds of around 10 mbps while only getting 500kbps to 1mbps download speeds??
Thanks guys, I wanted to put this thread out there to help others who may be in the same boat, and to get a consensus to see how many others also are plagued with this annoying nuisance.
Thanks.
Just tested the speed between nexus 7 and one on wlan and both upload and download are at 10 mbps (where the router is ~10 meters away through 2 solid walls).
I have a gpe 4.4.2 htc one.

hmmm, interesting... I just for the life of me cannot figure out why my wifi down speed is being choked so badly with nothing else sharing the connection.
I am having the exact same problem. I myself have been searching for answers and have not found anything.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
I just wanted to see if this is just me or not before I call tmob about it. I have no problem being on 4g and one less then max on the signal but when I request anything even just google.com it sits there till it times out and watching the data movement I see it try to send the request but nothing. If I do it ten or twenty times it may work for one page.
I have the same issue but I'm using the t-mobile note 4 on cricket. ?
I have been experiencing this issue for a few months now with little resolution. I have contacted Tmo and went through the entire ticket process without change. I notice it the most when I am unable to load emails in-app. Usually, when this is happens, I turn on wifi and immediately receive emails and notifications that were waiting to be delivered.
It appears the connection is going dead, and it requires a request to connect(Data off, Data on) to reconnect. Best part(or worst) is I can see the top of the T-mobile(they confirmed it) tower from my front yard.
I have similar issue but pertaining to wifi and 4G LTE my download speeds have not reached greater than 5mbs but my upload speeds go to 6mbs on my wifi tried restarting going in and out of airplane mode searching for new network connection and still nothing faster than 5mbs
Any thoughts?

So far I found installing a new rom onto the phone helped a lot. But still not perfect or very fast, even got my note 3 back out and it runs faster. I've replyed to a message from samsung so we can wait and see what happens but what really gets me is that if I use speedtest, it works at 10mbps no problem. Open chrome and goto google and it just sits and sits and sits annnnd times out.
Rate this thread to express how you think the LG V20's Wifi performs. A higher rating indicates that it has excellent range, throughput, and signal strength. Like when you're taking a dump in the bedroom upstairs, do your videos have to buffer or do they come through without interruption?

WIFI Multi Route Network Problem
I am having problems with wifi on my work network in the office. The explanation I got from our IT department is that the phone is having troubles with multi route setting on the network. Wifi home works without problems, but wifi at the office is not working at all. It is showing as connected but you cannot open any page nor get any internet access through any app. Anybody having this issue?
This is the first phone I've owned that has been able to fully utilize my home internet speeds. Every other phone has reduced the speeds by as much as half, and sometimes as little at 25%.
The auto switch between wifi and mobile data works great. There was nothing more frustrating than sitting in my car in front of my house, trying to pull up navigation and the phone running horrendously slow because it wanted to use my wifi that was 100 feet and 16 walls away, just because there was a signal.
I had the same issue with my wi-fi and internet signal for a time. Have you tried checking the phone lines in your area? Stactic noise in the lines may affect the stability of the signal. Have an IT expert check and replace the line if necessary to hopefully resolve the issue.
Signal strength is better than my note 7 before I sent not back I ran test checking data strength. I walked outside up the street connected to home wifi note lost connect 7 houses up the street v20 i was near 9th house
GPS accuracy, Lock speed, and reliability is poor for me. Can we vote on that?
My V20 is head and shoulders better than my Note 7 when it comes to networking performance. I had real, serious issues with throughput on the N7. My Note 3 would get ~5MB/sec transfers from my home Linux servers' SMB shares, the N7 would get 800-1000KB on a good day. The V20 is on par with the N3 on SMB, but where it REALLY shines is encrypted transfers via SCP. I can do SCP file copies at 80MB/sec reliably. It's amazing. I'm guessing we have some sort of encryption offload chip in the phone or something.
Does anyone else have this issue where the wifi cuts in and out every 30 minutes or so? I have a Netgear WNDR3400 router and I'm on Nougat 7.0
very lg-v20
lg v20 perfect phone-very speed.
my favorite phone
I agree man. Very speed. Much phone. Wow.

Auto Proxy
OK so I investigated the issue of not having internet through WIFI although connected to network, and the issue is that the phone cannot use auto proxy? My LG G4 did not have this issue. Setting up manual proxy through Drony app solves the issue. Any way to get this working straight out of android? Seems like 7.0 took a step back in usability.
I have a Asus AC68U router and the LG V20 reports the connection speed as 78Mbps, whereas my S7 Edge shows the speed as 173Mbps while connected to the same network.
Why is the V20 connecting at such a slow speed? Have reset the router, turned off Wifi optimisation on the phone, but speeds have not improved.
Is there anything else I can try out?

I have the same router. Mske sure you are connected to 5ghz and you will get adequate speed. I have no problems.
Wifi strength is good, a lot better than my G3. The download speeds are a little less than my laptop, like 35 vs 50 and 70 on 2 laptops, they may be connecting to different severs though, the speed seems to vary more on the phone. Sometimes it's slow to switch over to LTE when moving out of wifi range. Tells me no internet connection when wifi is too weak to get a good signal. Mainly an issue I think with a weak wifi signal that it's still trying to connect to.

What steps do you go through to make your v20 connect to work wifi? I have a new v20 from Tmobile and upon my 1st try to connect to work wifi, i can reach the splash login page, but after entering credentials, it bounces me back to the splash page instead of verifying that I have logged in. My older Nexus 6 has no issues connecting to wifi...

Solution to my issue: Not sure if it was a combination of things or just solely this tip from an LG rep:
Go to: Settings>Apps> (3 dots top left) > Show System> Wi-Fi > (storage>clear cache & clear data)
Tried connecting to Wifi after that and it worked on my v20. Also I entered in slightly different info in my work wifi splash page which may or may not have made a difference.
Hello, has anyone had a problem that they cannot connect to 5G on your router? My phone will not connect to 5G what ever I do, but will connect no problem to 2.4G. I've tested it with several different routers and all my other devices connect without any problems.
WiFi Issues
I was having issues with my WiFi at home only. Connected everywhere else. I found a post on this site that helped. The post was for a different issue. I just looked at all of the other settings that were available and did a little experimenting. My issue is fixed. WiFi is now good everywhere!!! I have T-Mobile so I am not sure if it will work with other carriers.
Dial-er code that got me to the right menu.
*#546368#*918#
I found that taking the metal back off my v20 improved download speed significantly!
I reported that in the discussion about people unable to get 5 GHz Wi-Fi.
I have a brand new Asus GTAXE11000 router and my s21 just refuses to go past 350mps on 6e and 6. Is anyone seeing speeds past this on there phones or is the phone limiting to 350, I am literally a foot away from the router when testing.

I was going to suggest you go to snbforums but I see you are already there. Great site to go to and I read through the whole thread. Hope your problems get fixed (I have a mere RT-AC86U) but the router market has shown continually over the years that it treats its purchasers of new models as beta testers. Edit: By the way, My internet connection is an over-provisioned 400/50 and I get 450/55 which is the same as the ethernet connection from the desktop.
I don't have 6e, but I'm getting better speeds on my new WiFi 6 RT-AX68 than I'm seeing on my old WiFi 5 RT-AC68, and I have the AX set to a lower bandwidth (40Mhz vs 80Mhz). The 436 result is the WiFi 6 router. That is the max of my internet connection.
I'm on 6 and my wifi speeds are about as maxed out as my 400 MB service will theoretically push through. I'm on Asus.

Fixed the issue with a network reset on the phone now seeing 1gig download on 6e!!
I have the RT-AX88 set up in a mesh network across my house. Speed was an issue when I first got them installed, but slowly over the years with firmware updates they disappeared. Another thing I have set up in the router settings is to reboot the router every morning at 3AM, that seemed to clear up a lot of issues for me as well.
Well the issue has come back it is no longer fast and needs another reset
edit: the culprit was adguard, updating to the nightly build fixed the issue.
Waiting for prices to go down before jumping from 6 to 6e since it will only benefit my s21. But good to know about real life performance and things to look out for!
I have the same router but my phone just doesn't seem to find the 6GHz SSID, is it possible it's deactivated in my country? (Argentina, SM-G998B). I might be the first one around here to have a 6E router, so it's hard to figure out!
