I have stock rooted Moto X on Tmobile and just purchase new 5ghz router. My Nexus 5 on 4.4.4 connects without issues but Moto X on 4.4.2 can see the network but as soon as I try to connect it tells me its Out of Range.
Anyone know what the problem is ?
no one uses 5 ghz n ?

Sorry, mine connects with no issue, did you try to remove the network and start fresh?

I did, but signal is very poor, need to be very close to my Airport Extreme to use it.
My router is a Netgear R6300 (v1) AC1750 with firmware V1.0.2.38_1.0.33 (I have not upgraded the router firmware due to known issues) Channel selection options for 5Ghz are 36,40,44,48, 143, 153, 157, 161.
I have no problems using my X with it (I left the router on the default channel 153 for 5Ghz)
While my iPad Air, iPad Mini w/Retina, iPad 3, iPhone 5s, Note 3, Note 2, Thinkpad with Edimax EW-7811Un b/g/n adapter, Samsung Ativ SmartPC Pro 700 (built in B/G/N), and even my two old Moto Xooms work on 5Ghz, my Galaxy S5 can't see the SSID for 5Ghz on the router unless I use channel 48 or below. But I don't care, my S5 is my work device and I rarely use it on wifi at home, so when I do, 2.4ghz is fine.

nope...still doesnt work
bought asus router and still having 5ghz issue. ordered replacement moto x from Motorola
I have a Linksys EA6700, which supports 5ghz 802.11ac, and I have disabled the 2.4ghz wifi.
I'm having problems connecting my Moto X to the wifi network as well - the range is EXTREMELY limited: I can be 15 feet away from my router and there would be no signal...
but my iPhone 5s and Q10 can still connect from that range
I have noticed that my Mi A2 does not show full speed on wifi.
I have a 100 Mbps connection, which when I connect via my laptop clocks at around 92+ Mbps, but on my A2 it only clocks about 50 Mbps.

Check which type of wifi your router can provide.
From Wikipedia : There are many different versions of Wi-Fi: 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n (Wi-Fi 4[40]), 802.11h, 802.11i, 802.11-2007, 802.11-2012, 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5[40]), 802.11ad, 802.11af, 802.11-2016, 802.11ah, 802.11ai, 802.11aj, 802.11aq, 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6[40]), 802.11ay.
One of the most popular wifi norm used over the years is the 802.11.g, which is capped at 54 Mbps. Could be an answer.

Just tested at home.
I have a 350 Mbps connection. I get 120 Mbps in download, and 40 Mbps in upload. (can't post pic)
I think my router must use 802.11ad, but I'd have to check.

Back again, made more tests.
Be sure to connect to a 5 GHz band. My router can use 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.
I'm getting way worse results on the 2.4 band. So use the 5 GHz if you can.

My router supports only 2.4 GHz bands. If it's capped at 54 Mbps, how come my laptop gets 100 Mbps?

Either its using 40mhz channel bandwidth (144mbps per "antena") or it has dual antenas (2x 72mbps at 20mhz or 2x 144mbps aka 300mbps at 40mhz).
Mi A2 only has one for 2.4ghz (72mbps at 20mhz or 144 at 40mhz) and one for 5ghz (433mbps at 40mhz and 200ish mbps at 20mhz if im not mistaken)

So I should force my router to use 40Mhz band? What other settings should I be using? I also have a WiFi Range extender, not sure if that supports using different bands.

I forced my router to 802.11n with a 40Mhz Channel Width. Disabled my extender. Made sure my A2 was the only device connected, still speed is capped at 50 Mbps.

40mhz is a bad ideia for 2.4GHz since to do it it overlaps channels wich most probably are already in use around you.
on my Mi A2 on 2.4ghz i always get around 50mbps (72 minus overhead) which seems just fine. The phone is fine.
on 5GHz i get my 200mbps.... your laptop probably has MIMO technologie
Ok thank you for the explanation, I'll just upgrade my router, and probably check if I still need the range extender, then maybe upgrade that too
Check your wireless AP? Or try it with another AP?
All redmi phone only getting 50mbps on 802.11n on 2.4GHz
All redmi phone only getting 50mbps on 802.11n on 2.4GHz i have test. I have redmi note 7 pro latest and a Realme note 5 pro and a laptop, my wifi connection is 75mbps. When i test the speed then in Redmi note 7 pro is always getting 50mbps or below it cannot goes beyond 50mbps but in Realme 5 pro and in my laptop both are getting full speed around 72mbps..
Therefore you all have not any issue with your wifi router the problem is only in your Mi devices....
If you don't trust then check and compare the speed with any mobile and u will get to know the Mi devices is only limited to 50mbps.
I know that i have a alternative option , if i use 5Ghz router and my redmi note 7 pro also support 5GHz but my question is why Mi devices are failed to getting speed on 2.4GHz where all others brand are getting 802.11n speed.
I don't want to get alternative if anyone has the solution then post here otherwise we know the alternative so pls do provide alternative option.

You are not entirely correct. Maybe it is a Redmi throttle because on my Mi X6 my speed runs to around 100Mbps on 2.4Ghz and reaches around 350Mbps on my 5Ghz connection . My internet connection is a 1000Mbps connection but I only achieve that speed on my computer with gigabit ethernet and cat5 cabled connection. Never by WiFi .

Agreee. I have a Xiami MI A2 and I used to get +70 Mbps in 2.4 Ghz and +150 Mbps in 5 Ghz. A couple of days ago I had issues with my router and had to restart it and now I can´t get more than 30 Mbps in both 2.4 and 5 Ghz... but I also got the March security update in the phone so not sure what´s causing the issue. I´m quite sure it´s the phone because other devices perform fine in the network.
you can solve the WiFi speed by using custom kernel Agni for example. Try the different libs to see which work best . But so yes Xiaomi throttled WiFi in newer versions ..custom kernel like agni gives option in aroma to choose another modified or older lib . This will double your speed .

Hey sorry to bump a thread like this, but it seems it's not an issue many persist with as most internet connections are usually below 50Mbps so users don't notice the issue.
I've got a new Redmi Note 11, and along with an old Redmi Note 8 I have, both have limited WiFi speeds on both 2.4G and 5G networks at 48Mbps for some reason.
Your claim that Xiaomi throttled the WiFi in newer versions makes the most sense, so I have a question if you don't mind. Would just going for the latest Agni kernel do for me? I'll be trying to port TWRP to this new phone and see if I can flash the newest Agni, from there is there anything more to do? Will the WiFi speed be back to normal?
My brand new Realme X2 Pro is not detecting my 5Ghz wifi routers. I tried with another realme model also and that also doesn't detects this 5Ghz Wifi router. I tried searching with various other brands phones like Apple, OnePlus and Redmi which shows up my 5Ghz router without any issues. Seems like it's a software problem. Please look into the issue very seriously as many industrial Wifi Routers work in this 5Ghz band.
You are on custom ROM or on realme UI ? What channel your router set to. Which country you use your phone . When I am on custom ROM I can not see routers that have channel over 64 but on realme UI I can .
No problems here and I'm only connected to my 5ghz band,
On EU model with latest RUI update
i hava same issue with you. And i fix it with this severals way:
1. Turn on air plane mode
2. change your phone region to Singapore
3. restart your phone
4. then try to connect to 5Ghz wifi
I have created a mesh network with two AX3600 routers and it turns out that my Mi 9T Pro does not do well for me to change the router. Being connected to a router and with a good connection, when I get closer to the other, it changes the router, with full Wi-Fi coverage, but nevertheless I don't have Wi-Fi connection. If I activate and deactivate the mobile's Wi-Fi switch, it connects at maximum speed. It does it for me on the 5G wifi network, on the 2.4G it works perfect. I have tried all kinds of roms, Miui, Miui EU, Pixel Experience, Lineage, Evolution X ... and it all fails.
My tablet Huawei M6, it works perfect, it does well to change the router of the mesh network.
Anyone know what can it be?
Hi - I recently updated my OP10Pro 5G to the NE2215_11_C26 update, OOS13, US,, and my 5ghz wifi is now really slow - 40-50mbps down - unless I toggle wifi or airplane mode. Speed goes back up to normal, then goes down and stays there. Other devices in 802.11ac work just fine on the 5ghz band
Any idea what's going on?
Thanks

I had exactly the same problem and went through a "chat session" with OnePlus support about two weeks ago. I was asked to send my phone in for "repairs". The way their agent responded to my issue suggested that it is a common problem.
Edit: Sorry, my phone was running OOS 12 at the time I experienced the problem. I don't recall the build number and I don't have the phone now, so I can't check.
So, my phone has been "under repair" now for two weeks. No status update, no idea when it might be repaired or replaced. Meanwhile, I'm using my previous phone, a Moto One Ace 5G, and wondering why I bought the OnePlus at all.

I think I figured out my problem. I have Verizon FiOS, and have a G1000 Quantum Gateway AC router and the matching extender. The extender had the same SSID for the 5ghz band as the main router .. so the phone would hang on to the router or extender no matter where I moved in the house, no matter whether I checked the "switch Wifi to stronger network" box. I created a 'sub' SSID, and now the phone will (usually) switch to the stronger network, and seems to work ok.
I didn't have this with my AC Wifi OnePlus 7 Pro, or with my AX laptop. But this did seem to fix the issue with the OP10. I wonder if the new FiOS wifi 6e router + new extender would work better with my 10 Pro if extender is broadcasting same SSID?

As long as the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands will share the same SSID that's l;ikely the phone will pick the one with the "strongest signal".
If you want to make sure to always connect to the 5GHz one, using a different SSID is the only option. Doesn't really matter which AP/router/repeater/extender you use.

Yea.. the issue was that I had the 5ghz band on the SAME SSID being broadcast by both router and extender.. forgetting the 2.4ghz didn't do anything, nor did ensuring that the "switch to stronger Wifi network" toggle was on. My OP10Pro would connect to the router's 5ghz signal when entering the house, then stay on it when moving around the house without switching to the stronger 5ghz signal with same SSID emitted by the extender. By creating TWO 5ghz SSIDs, one for router and one for extender, the OP10Pro now - usually, it isn't perfect - switches between the router/extender 5ghz SSIDs depending on the signal strength, though Android13's cutoff for defining "weak signal" seems either arbitrary or very forgiving. I'm wondering if Verizon's new Wifi 6E router + extender will fix this issue and allow me to just clone the SSID on both devices.. i read somewhere that wifi 6 and 6e devices can do this natively.. not sure as I'm a novice at best at networking. Thanks.

Other than the actual "sensibility", that's not a 10pro specific issue.
2.4 and 5 GHz bands will behave differently and the phone will "perceive" one or the other as the best choice based on various factors and the overall quality of the signal.
I had the very same issue on my laptop.
OnePlus support had my phone for 3 weeks to fix my 5G wifi speed problem. They report that they replaced the motherboard under warranty and the phone has been shipped back to me. I should have it in a couple days and will certainly test to confirm that 5G wifi speed is similar to other devices connected to my network.
I've defined separate SSIDs for 2.4g and 5g wifi in my gateway, so I can control which SSID I connect to. 2.4g was always consistent with other devices connected at 2.4g. The problem with my phone was related only to 5g.

I received my "fixed" phone about a week ago now and I've been monitoring its wifi performance. Bottom line: 5G has been generally slow, much slower than my laptop or my Moto Ace 5G, but the speed is highly variable and quite fast sometimes. I just ran Speedtest on my laptop and OnePlus. Both were connected to the same 5G SSID. The laptop performance was 304 mbps down, 172 mbps up. The OnePlus performance was 48 mbps down, 205 mbps up.
I switched both the phone and the laptop to my 2.4G SSID. Laptop performance was 43 mbps down and 15 up. Phone performance was 116 mbps down and 88 mbps up.
After the 2.4G test, I switched the phone and the laptop back to the 5G SSID and immediately retested wifi speed. I observed performance of 339 mbps down and 373 mbps up on the phone. The laptop speed was 248 mbps down and 148 mbps up.
I know that my gateway broadcasts 5G on two different channels for the same SSID and I have no control over what channels it picks. Maybe the phone picks a congested channel sometimes and the slow observed speeds are due to that, whereas the laptop (and the Moto Ace) always seem to pick the less congested channel?
The other thing I read about was "randomized MAC address" versus "device MAC address" and someone, somewhere (I don't remember where) suggested that using device MAC address resulted in improved speed. I just made that switch for the 5G SSID. Speed is very good now, and I'll monitor it to see if it slows over time.
Sorry for the long message, but I'm thinking that the "fix" really did nothing to improve 5G wifi performance and there is something not quite right about the OnePlus's handling of 5G wifi.
