Anyone notices 5GHz WiFi strength issue since updated to Android 10? - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers

I'm not sure if there's only me facing the issue with 5GHz Wifi strength which is often get weak even very close to the router.
So do you find this happening with you?
I don't know if Android 10 causes the issue or just my router goes bad itself.
Please note that my A2 already runs on Android 10 with the latest patch (Jan 5) that released 2-3 days ago.
Thanks

Hello, i had the same problem and a factory reset resolved it.

WiFi keeps on disconnecting

I'm on pure nexus build 6.0.1, and for the last couple of weeks I'm facing the problem of having my WiFi disconnectomg every 5 mins, my router is fine because this doesn't happen on my laptop, only on my nexus 6, I'm not flashing another rom because I have almost 250 apps installed on my phone, what might be the reason of this issue? And any solution?
App: fix my wifi. Or similar.
Router: change the channel.

WIFI slow / disconnecting

Hi
I received my 3T yesterday. I am having issues with WIFI
WiFi network drops frequently and the mobile data is used for some time and then WIFI is connected again. See attached .. This happens even when moving between rooms of my house
I think this happens when the mobile wifi changes from 5GHZ to 2.4GHZ when I move away from router
I have updated to OxygenOS 3.5.4 as soon as I received the mobile
The signal strength of the 3T is also very low
I have a 2 year old moto X 2014 and the moto beats the 3T at every place in my house
The signal strength and the wifi speed both are better in moto X
I have checked at various places
I have wiped the cache. Tried changing 2.5GHz to 5GHz
Changed Channels.. Tried all the things that I could find on the internet
But still problems
So is this a hardware problem and should I ask for a replacement? Or is this some Software bug which can be resolved
My router is ASUS RTN66U and a lot of other devices work seamlessly on that router and hence pls dont suggest to change the router
Awaiting replies
Regards

I think this is a bug related to 3.5.4. On 3.5.3 my WiFi worked a lot better, but LTE Advanced is faster on 3.5.4. You can try a custom rom or downgrading, there's also a leaked OxygenOS 4 rom out.
Do you have wifi issues now when u have 3.5.4
I don't want to install new Roms. As I may have to return it in case this is a faulty piece
I'm having the exact same problem. I stream a lot. Very annoying when music video or gaming gets disconnect so often. My Galaxy Note 4, & s6 works fine.

yes, it started on 3.5.4.
here is a screencap of the issue
You can see in the screen cap that the mobile is connected to ASUS5 (5GHZ)
Then as I move away from the router the signal weakens and then the wifi disconnects .. and then it connects to ASUS (2.4GHZ)
Earlier it was connecting to ASUS but with a exclamation mark (without internet).. I waited for 15 minutes but it did not connect
Then I would connect if I switch off and on the wifi toggle
After that I did a factory reset and now you can see the screencap
It connects after a minor delay.. So is this alright
My other mobile - Moto X 2014 simply switches instantly from 5GHz to 2.4GHz and vice versa.. not even half of second is taken on moto x
Give the device a static IP use 2.4 network as it's more of a long range band. I tend to use the 5 band for stationary stuff. My WiFi works fine but all my home devices have a static IP.
This are the things that I did
1) Factory reset
2)Use Legacy DHCP client (under Developer options)
3)Disable Smart Wifi switcher (Advanced Wifi setting)
4)Static IP
This seems to solve the disconnection issue .. I still feel the wifi signal is weak compared to my other devices
Hope this helps someone facing the problem
regards
I had the same Problem on OOS 3.5.3/3.5.4/4.0 at the OnePlus 3T.
I tried every Solution on the internet and nothing worked for me.
But after i looked into my Router-Setup i saw the DHCP Section where i selected 'Renew DHCP every Day'
>>> Screenshot what i mean - imgur.com/KakQX3i.png <<<
After that it works perfect. No connection-issues anymore.
mine is already one day..
I thought it was resolved... but again I noticed slow wifi speeds
thinking of replacement
haven't had the phone long enough to experience disconnects but wifi is definitely slow...
I have a 200mbps connection, getting 160mbps on desktop with LAN cable, 110mbps on my OPO, only 50mbps on my OP3T....
all tested through speedtest with the same server location.
OP3T is chinese version flashed with oxygenos 4.0.1
edit: later tested again with OP3T getting up to 90mbps but still 20 less than the OPO
I have same issus like lajay. The Galaxy S7 from my wife works perfekt in the same Network!

Loss of 5ghz wifi band with uptime

I am on the latest official firmware 6.0.1 PK5 and I've noticed over the past 2 weeks that as my phone's uptime increases, it loses the ability to see any network on the 5ghz wifi band. If I reboot, I can see the 5ghz band again for a short period of time but that ability goes away after several hours.
My next step is to do a factory reset but I wanted to see if anyone else had a problem before doing so. I was hoping to wait it out until Nougat officially releases to wipe but IMO this feels more like a hardware failing than a software issue.
Has anyone else had this issue?

Poor WiFi connectivity.

Today, received my phone and first thing I noticed was poor WiFi speed and upon further looking I saw poor link speed on 2.4Ghz connection and my other devices including redmi note 4(mido) and redmi 4(santoni) all had link speeds of 150Mb/s up and down while mi A2 was at 65Mb/s up and down even if I kept the phone next to router. None of my devices suffer the issue. Is the issue specific to my device or anyone else facing same? Should I return phone cause I still can. Also if anyone facing same issue can you try to see if issue exist in GSI roms as well? P.S. I am on September security patch.
Did you tried 5 ghz band?
That's what I get with the 5GHz networks. With 2.4GHz I get around 2-3 Mbps up and down. Just aweful.
The speeds are ok with me its just the range that sucks even with a case on. i had to take off the case to get that bit of extra range. They have to patch this or fix somehow cause my Moto G5Plus has waaay better range than this.

Yes, I have this issue. On 2.4GHZ network the fastest Link speed on Mi A2 is locked at 72mpbs and this was the case with Mi A1 also. But on the 5GHZ network it get higher Link speed but the stability is so bad.
I am sending a feedback via the feedback app after every update so they unlock the link speed but still nothing happened.
Just checked my 2.4GHz connection. I got the highest speed since I've bought the phone at a whopping 15Mbps on a 200Mbps network. That said, I can barely connect to the 2.4 GHz network since it just keeps dropping it. On the other hand, the 5GHz one went down to 50Mbps max... It's not exactly a deal breaker for me since I can still do everything I need on the 5 GHz network, but I'm curious what can be done about it.
Hello and sorry for my bad english. I always have Wi-Fi issues with my mi a2. ROM stock, gsi....
I heve already converted it to mi 6x and always same issues ( gsi, miui 10)....
It seems my wifi got better with that new kernel no more Disconnects.
Looks like the same issue with the A1.

Return the phone and buy other, maybe poco
The reception is bad, the speed are ok. My 5 old year Galaxy S4 have better range.
I have poor speed in 2,4 and 5gh.
And serious disconnecting problems in 5gh. I finished by don't use it as all...
Perfect with redmi note 7 and redmi note 8t.
Which custom rom have best and most stable wifi?

Wifi problem on s10/+ !!!

My wifi keeps dropping as well, it's getting to the point where I might return to Samsung unless it's fixed in a firmware update!

Same problem started to happen recently with my phone but only with 5GHz WiFi.
Getting the same problem with 5ghz as well, have to shut it off and then reconnect to the router. Their networking coding is a disgrace, tons of complaints about it all over the place and Samsung does nothing.... I can't return my device but if you're still within the period of being able to, I would if I were you. I absolutely hate this device and all its problems.
I"m having a similar issue. First I noticed that LTE would stop working until I rebooted. Then the wifi would glitch up the same way. I'm not sure if it's the switch from one to the other, or what the deal is. The worst part is it's not repeatable. It just seems to do it randomly.
I have encountered the same problem with wifi dropping. I went to wifi setting and forget network and reboot. Punch the password back. Its working fine now. By the way im using the latest s10+ firmware rooted
Hi guys,
I was faced to the same issue since I bought my S10e. DO not mind the solutions proposed on generic sites (thecellguide.com, thedroidguy.com), they're garbage, totally irrelevant (reboot your phone, erase your cache blabla).
I've tried several hypothesis to troubleshoot this issue (very inconsistent wifi connection with my TPLink 4G routeur MR600, disconnecting every minute or so). In fact, tens...
And the final word seems to be, as observed by other users: 5GHz. After disabeling the option on my routeur (switching all traffic to 2,4GHz) everything is fine. For now.
Good luck

I've also had this issue on the S10E where the wifi would be connected but no internet. After a few minutes it would no longer see the wifi. 5ghz of course. 2.4 no problem. I noticed this happened right after login to Samsung account. Now that I'm logged out Samsung account wifi is all good. I'm on the oneui 2 Jan sec update.
I have the same problem with my girlfriend's Samsung S10, it keeps disconnecting from 5GHz. Just now I switched her to 2.4GHz to see if it solves the problem. All our other devices (HTC One M9, 2x laptops, raspbbery pi 3, chromecast, google home) have no problem with the WiFi on either band.
Samsung really has a problem with it's network code, I also had a problem at work with Cisco APs when an Apple device and the Samsung S10 where on the same network it would bring the whole network down. It was some multicast bug where the Apple would announce itself as the gateway only when an S10 was present.
It's happened to me but never until after the last update. I noticed yesterday I was connected with no internet.
