My wifi seems to disconnect from my wifi when the screen turns off, despite me having changed my settings to never sleep. When I look at the wifi settings it says "Unsuccessful Connection". I didn't have this problem with my MT3G.
Anyone having similiar issues or a fix?
wifi Reconnection issues
I'm having the same problems with mine.
It initially connects to wifi fine but when the screen goes off it sometimes drops the connection and will not reconnect without a reboot.
I have tried setting it to keep the wifi when sleeping but it makes no difference.
I found a few similar reports elsewhere and followed most of the suggestions, like changing routers, changing wifi channels, setting an IP address instead of DHCP etc. Nothing seems to make any difference so far.
Mine never seems to reconnect after waking up, but I just go into the Wireless settings/Wifi settings window (where it lists all the Wifi networks in the area) and press on the network name and it brings up a dialog allowing me to connect again. I press the Connect button and it instantly reconnects. No reboot required...
Try increase your router's "Group Key Update Interval". I had the same problem with my D-Link DIR-655. I changed mine to 10 hours and it's working fine for me now.
i have the issus that my wifi is "connected" i mean i see the logo at the top bar but after a few minutes i don't get any update from the internet like gmail oder twitter when is wake up the device from sleep i get them back again
maybe it something with the Group Key Intervall but i can't switch it on my speedport w700v router
I just tried switching mine, highest it can go is 7200 seconds, so I bumped it to two hours instead of one. linksys
my wifi reconnects when I wake the screen almost 100% but it's not reliable.
I have to go to wifi list and reconnect. Sometimes I disable wifi and then re enable, conects no problem. Irritating
i heared that switching the encryption from wpa/wpa2 to only wpa2 will solve this issues, will try it when i am at home
...seems like almost everybody got this problem.
for example with my Hero i don't had this problems so it's something with the W-Lan card of the Nexus
Got this problem too but will try the suggested work arounds when I get home tonight
found out that my encryption is wpa2 not wpa/wpa2 ... damn so thats not the reason
and my router cant configure the group key intervall
I don't have this issue, running CM5.0.3.1, mine is set to Never Sleep and it does not. My connection does not time out either. I connect to two Trendnet TEW-637AP's at home, in mixed b/g/n mode with WPA2-PSK mode security.
Could it be, that this prob exists just for nonrooted phones?!
i've got mcr 1.6 which is rooted and don't work
i think it's a problem with the wifi card and the wifi router
rooting just means that you get read/write access to all folders
doesn't change anything on your wifi connection

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Not exactly, it means also modified system files, which could include those that interface with the wifi chip and those that control the sleep state of the device.
Also, Cyanogen (and most other custom roms now) are running on a different (newer) kernel.
yes i know
but mcr is although running on different kernel and it's not working there
i don't think its an issue bei the stock rom and mcr
maybe here is someone with CM where the wifi drops?
edit:
okay i tried it with the desire rom version from modaco, the same failures, maybe i try a CM built now, and see if it changes
Code:
[B]Rom [/B] [B]Router / Access Point[/B]
MCR 1.6 | Speedport w700v | not working
Desire MCR | Speedport w700v | not working
CM 5.0.3.1 | Speedport w700v | not working
i think this means it's not a rom issue, its something with the routers and access points in combination of the wifi card from the nexus
That´s strange..perhaps just accidentally, but: yesterday I installed "Task Manager" , which has an auto-kill function.....since then my Wifi reconnects perfectly
maybe because it automatically does anything inside of the 10 minutes which keeps the wifi active?
which one did you install?
there are a lot of them on the market
which developer?
edit:
ah i found a strange issue, today i was at the wifi of my girlfriend, she has the same router BUT i don't have the wifi problems there, with the same model of router thats very strange
i found another work around, i set my twitter client to 5 minutes update intervall, this means every 5 minutes is network traffic and the connection won't drop after my 10 minutes public key intervall change
don't know how much battery is used while setting from 10 to 5 minutes but i think it should be okay
Try a different WiFi channel
I've seen reports of WiFi connection problems being solved by changing channels on the AP. Channel 10 seems to be a consistently reliable choice.
Every 3 - 5 minutes while browsing, my wifi will "hang" (timeout when trying to access sites). Note: it doesn't disconnect, the wifi icon is still there as if I was connected, it will just timeout any requests
I'm using CM 6.1 and Airties 6271 modem
Hello,
would you please kindly help me resolve Tasker issue I have on my rooted MIUI Mi4c running MIUI 7 by xiaomi.eu 6.1.21, 5.1.1 android.
I made a Home profile, that enables itself, when I'm connected to my home wifi (based on my SSID).
So I have "State" type profile - Wifi Connected.
I have following action to be performed when profile is activated:
1. Pattern Lock Disabled (via Secure settings) - So I don't have to unlock my phone while at home.
I have following actions to be performed when profile is deactivated (I disconnect from WIFI), when leaving home:
1. Pattern Lock Enable.
2. Disable WIFI (to save battery, when I'm away from my home wifi).
The problem is though, that since 2 weeks ago, it seems as the "disable" actions of my home profile is randomely from time to time activated - meaning, wifi keep switching itself off. I thought there is some problem with my router, but as soon as I removed wifi off action from profile, wifi no longer keep switching itself off.
I cannot see anything wrong from with my profile, nor can I see anything useable in Tasker log.
Any idea what's wrong? Or how to mend this?
Thanks in advance !
Hello to all,
my Sony Z3 Compact / D5803
5.1.1
23.4.A.1.264
No Root
Reset with original settings
No stamina mode enabled
No enabled energy savings
No program installed unless the original ones after reset
The problem:
wifi connected everything works perfectly ... the phone goes into standby ... I move to another place where it previously was connected in wifi ...
any program that requires connection work ... if the phone comes out of the standby icon appears and wireless wifi back to work ...
So long as I do not go out of standby I do not receive any notification from the Internet because the wireless (having the correct WPA parameters) is not working...why ?!?
I tried different types of routers, various keys WPA / WEP ... if I do not force the exit from standby no connection.
Thank you so much for your advice, gino
Hi,
I was going to install more recent android on my Redmi 4X 2/16GB, but in every rom I've tried I'm struggling with weird problem of wifi not connecting after sleep - even minute of device locked / screen off is enough that wifi couldn't connect again. In most cases wifi scanning works, my network is visible on list with full signal, but status is "Saved". I have to connect manually, by clicking on network name or toggling wifi off/on.
Roms I've tried:
- crDroid 7/8
- voltageOs 2.5 (wifi scanning not working after sleep)
- havocOs 4.16
- PixelExperience (tooks long to disconnect wifi, but eventualy when it does - same problem)
- LineageOS 20
- AICP 15
There's no problem with wifi on stock rom (MIUI 11).
Please help.
