Dear All!
It is possible that after dropping down my phone, the wifi signal reception is reduced?
For example: the wifi antenna - accidentally - able to move in the phone?

Anyone notice dodgy wifi 802.11 signal? I have dd-wrt firmware on my Linksys router with the transmit power amped up and still while in the same room the reception meter on the n1 shows 2out of 3 bars sometimes. Seem peculiar to me. I've tried different channels, lowering the transmit power on the router also.
I am an old iPhone user and I have noticed the same. My iPhone was always connected fine and then in the house I look at the N1 and it is on 3G.. i have to go back into settings-> wireless & networks -> wi-fi settings and connect to my wifi again....
No I mean it just has a poor signal.I look at the wireless clients from my router configuration and the phone has a low signal
ya. but it is essentially the same problem... mine is just worse..
Compared to my iPhone 2G, my T-Mo N1 seems to show the WiFi on full bars less of the time, but actually have better reception in real life marginal areas. In other words, my experience is that the actual reception is better, but the indicator graphic doesn't show full bars as readily as the iPhone did.
Hi guys, I use the captivate as a spare phone , and sometimes to browse the internet at home. I've noticed that recently the wifi signal has been extremely weak. I'm literally right next to my router and it's showing 1 bar of reception. When i step into the next room, i get no reception at all. I was on stock firmware at the time, I have since flashed to cm10, and the wifi signal is just as bad. Can anyone help please?
I'd suggest you try a different kernel. Also, you could try to delete your saved network and re-connect to it.
I just bought one S Advance few days ago.i noticed that my wi-fi signal is significantly lower than my girlfriend's HTC Rhyme. Also when i keep the phone on my desk, in the same room with the rooter (3 meters away from it) my wifi signal is full Instead when i pick the device in my hand the signal drops 1 or even 2 lines of signal and it keeps oscilating. Not mentioning that in public places i sometimes can't connect to a wifi because i don't have enough signal but the HTC does.
I nstalled several wifi monitors like wifi analyzer or wifi signal info and the last one shows how my signal decreseases when i pick the device in my hand (aprox 15-20%).The internet still works fine in the same room with thee router but if i go few meters from the room it drops significantly and charging internet pages becomes poor or null.And in public places is kind of funny.If i keep the device on the table the signal is 2-3 lines but when i put it under the table or just turn the back on the router the signal just drops 1 line and the internet is not working anymore
I want to know if it`s my device problem only or if someone else is experiencing the same. I saw a lot of posts about weak wifi signal on SGS II. Does the S advance has the same problem ?
Should i return the device to the provider for replacement or it's just normal?
My router is in another room - about 6 meters away with bathroom on straight line from my desk to the router and I got 3 out of 4 bars on 'wifi manager' - no mattrer if phone sits on the desk or I am playing with it in my hands. Internet works as usual everywhere in my flat - no matter where I am,
Public wifi getting 1-2 bars on wifi manager works ok - I blame speed cap for slower loading pages on public wifi - must try speedtest while on it to be sure.
Bought my device in December - it was used for like 2-3 months when I bought it.

Try ThunderZap kernel, I was getting better signal with it in places where I didn't have at my home.
Thanks
Thanks guys. Yesterday i tested my phone with another s advance.also new. and they had pretty much the same signal on wifi signal info app.i`m not complaining about internet connection in my room...no matter how many lines the internet is still working fine.But if i hold the phone with one hand and cover his back the signal decreases and holding it from above part =up one line.but in public places it sucks.Keeping my hands on the table=2 lines, under the table=1 line and unusable internet.pretty much annoying. I guess it's samsung`s hardware problem with this wifi antennas.
With wifi manager about 5-6 meters away from the router, straight line:
86% percent signal keeping the phone from it's top = -62dbm, 3 lines
60% percent signal keeping the phone normally as in daily use = -75dbm, 3 lines
Hi,
After changing my cracked screen, I have very very weak wifi signal, but nothing seen broken near the wifi card and the cellular signal work well.
Any idea to solve this problem?
have a wifi in the same room that phones and computer have no issue with and full bars.
but kf7 shows low signal and internet connect issue.
other wifi in the house shows good signal, but has constant "authorization problem".
any suggestions on how to fix?
stock, not rooted.
