Hi
I just want to buy wifi router for my home network. Which router works without any problem with BA? I`m asking cause I`ve heard that BA sometimes dosen`t work with some specific routers.
Thanks,
Watcher
works fine with my netgear router.
Security protocol is the key
It really depends what security you use (I believe).
The BA does not support WPA2 or AES encryption.
I use a Linksys WRT54-GL with Tomato Firmware patch and I allows me to use dual security methods mine is setup for WPA + WPA2 and AES + TKIP.

What model?
I just bought a cheap T-link model on Newegg for like $25 and it works fine.

Does the Gtab not support wireless N? Or is it Vegan5.1? I have a linksys WRT610N and I have my b/g on the 2.4Ghz and N on the 5Ghz but my Gtab doesn't pick the N SSID. Anyone know why this is?

Nope, its got nothing to do with the rom you are running. The G-Tab is hardware limited to wireless G, no N. I was a little dissapointed by that too when I researched it to buy, but frankly G is fine for streaming vids, music, etc.
Most N routers support dual mode for legacy G devices so I'd suggest turning this on. Additionally if your router does not broadcast its SSID you'll have to manually type it in when setting up the wireless connection on your tab...

My upstairs router is a WRT610N. My GTab works fine with it. The Gtab comes with a single wireless radio (does not support MIMO) that supports the Wireless-N (802.11n) draft standard.
The Gtab will only see the 2.4GHz band, not the 5GHz band.

Oops, you're right, thats what I was trying to say, no 5Ghz frequency.... While it connects fine to my N router, it really isn't true N or any speed near it.

I have my routers on the 2.4GHz band setup for Wireless-N only, and my Gtab connects to them just fine. Both on my E4200 and my WRT610N.

Yeah, I only see 72Mbit/second, but someone else reported that they saw 270 Mbit/second connecting to their Netgear router.
I agree with you. I haven't seen the throughput, especially during large file transfers.
So once again the marketing monster strikes. Clearly states wireless N but only in the 2.4 Ghz range. That's fine just wanted to be sure there wasn't something I was missing. Thanks to everyone who replied.

N doesnt specify any frequency.
True but when anyone sets up a wireless N router on the 5GHz band only...it will not be found by the G-Tablet. I have mine set up with both 2.4GHz and 5GHz so all of my equipment is covered.
I'm using the WRT310N and I have mine set to Wireless N only.
Standard 20MHz Channel @ 2.412GHz
GTAB Connects.
Hell, if you live in an area where you can use all 14 2.4GHz channels you can even connect on channel 14. A lot less interference.
My gTab can see my N-network but it disconnect immideatly after I try to connect. I have 2 routers; 1 upstairs with N only, an done downstairs with both N & G. I'm mostly upstairs but I have to connect to the G-router which only gives me one bar.. But it works just fine, although full speed N would have been nice for Winamp Wifi-sync and transfering Movies etc
Mine connects to DLink Dir655 2.4Ghz rounter using N protocol but gTab radio definitely not a MIMO one.
Best download speed is about 2.7 - 3.0 MByte per second when using FTP, and only 1.9 - 2.0 MByte per second when using SMB protocol.
My laptop can get upload/download speeds around 9-10 MByte per second using same router and 2.4Ghz MIMO N wireless card.
I know the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is supposed to support 5Ghz 802.11n, but I'm not having any luck getting it to work with either an Airport Express or Linksys E4200
Has anyone else had trouble with this?

My guess is that it doesn't support it. I cannot connect to it either. Maybe a kernel mod can fix it.
Works fine with linksys

Works fine with my Netgear running DD-WRT.
WNDR3000 I think... Maybe 3100? I forget.
Anyone else have any input on this? I still haven't had any success getting it to work.
How do you have the SSID setup?
For 802.11n to function properly, you must use WPA2 with AES or no security (open).
Is that what you are running?
Also, make sure on the 5GHz side that the access point is using 40Mhz channel not 20Mhz.
Hi!
I've just bought Galaxy Tab 10.1.
I have the router Cisco Linksys E4200.
And I cannot connect to 5 GHz with my tablet.
Anyone succeeded to connect to 5 GHz with this router?
Thanks?
In Paris v4 and Pershoot's kernel. Using a Linksys e3000. Never had a problem connecting to either 2.4 or 5ghz.
Stock KME here, no problem connecting to a D-Link DIR-825's wireless N at 5.0 Ghz.
Must be something in your router settings....maybe check what the setting is on mixed data modes and all that stuff.
Hi!
It works now.
We have to set the Channel in the router config to get 5GHz working.
Here is the very interesting suggestion coming from Cisco Wireless Routers forum :
Set the 5 GHz band on the router to a only, 20 MHz and channel 36.
Wow!
wireless n
I think that the native 801n is O/S enabled. When i first got my IO tab it "saw" and connected to all networks a,b,g,n. Now after a boot loop issue and restore back to 3.0.1(from 3.1), I can only detect and connect to the 2.4GHz band of the router(which has separate simultaneous g/n capability)
If anyone has an apk to turn on the n for 3.0.1 i'd be greatful..
Fixed the previous post about the cisco(linksys) router settings worked..
Wifi 5.0Ghz
At my duaghters school she can only see/connect to the 5.0Ghz wifi in the lower bands/channels. I raised this with Samsung and their official response was that 5Ghz was not supported. See below. Its obviously not as absolute as thier statement as we are connect to some 5Ghz wifi routers - has anyone found the same.

Dear Richard,
Thank you for contacting Samsung Customer Care.
I have followed up on your enquiry and have found that the Galaxy Tab Note 10.1 (GT-N8010) does not support 5Ghz WiFi Frequency band.
I apologise for any inconvenience.
Thank you for contacting Samsung Customer Care.

All the specs claim the Nook Tablet and Color Nook have 802.11n. But I can't see any of my n access points on either device, either in the wifi setup, or in tools such as wi-finder.
So do these support wireless n? If so, how do I use it?

Hmm...what WAP (wireless access point) device do you have? i.e. model.
In other words, when you say 'any of your n access points', what device
are those declared on?
And, are you saying you CAN get on in 'G' mode, but just NOT in 'N' mode?
Or, that you can't get on your wifi at all?
I'm pretty sure that my router is set to N only and I have no issue connecting. I have a Netgear WNR3500L.
I have a WNDR3700. It is set up for both G and N, with different SSIDs. G works fine, but I cannot see any of the (non-hidden) N SSIDs.
I believe it is has 802.11n but only on 2.4 ghz networks, not 5.0 ghz networks.
The NT, like most other mobile toys, have 802.11n 2.4GHz. Hence its "b/g/n" designation. It does not have 802.11n 5.0GHz aka dual-band. Tabs that are dual-band are designated as "a/b/g/n". iPad, Samsung GT 10/8.9/7+, Xoom, have dual-band. Most tabs only have 2.4GHz.
Sounds like your 3700 is set up for N to use 5GHz band, and G using 2.4GHz. That's fine. Throughput should be the same when using 2.4GHz, whether it's G or N. Ignore the reported link rate. But if you must have that N letter, then set your 2.4GHz radio to N as well.

>I have a Netgear WNR3500L.
The WNR3500L is a single-band (2.4GHz) router. The 'D' in WNDR3700 stands for dual-band, as in "wireless network dual-band router".

True, however there was nothing (at the time) that specified whether it was dual or single band N that was being talked about.
It was the cheapest gigabit wireless router that I could find. No reason to upgrade right now.
My router supports 802.11n but my phones connect only in 54Mbps.
In addtion whenever i set my router to transmit only in 802.11n protocol , the phone can not connect to wifi.
it can see the router but it can not connect
The phone's chip always uses the highest possible compatible protocol.
All you can do is switch frequency between 2.4 and 5Ghz band. (I'd leave it on auto)
You may want to check with another non-similar Wireless-N router. In most cases i've seen this issue the Router wasn't actually N but one of the very early draft Versions (read: pre-beta) of the N-standard and thus had too many incompatibilites with the client for both to understand each other.
This would cause the device to go back to G standard.
ok, how do you stop it using "n". on my HTC I could tell it to use "g" to save power. On my S3, wlan traffic sucks the juice from the battery.
When I turn it to 5ghz band it doesn't find at all my router.my Samsung smart tv works fine with 802.11n , same with my ps 3 and my pc .My router is d link DSL 2740B

Mine connects at 72mbps on the default setting, check your router.
I download the application andromizer from the market and to the wifi settings I receive the message that my device does not support 802.11n set
I have XXLF5 stock root ROM

Any suggestion , i use all share a lot and all the HD videos are played with freezes
Guys i have tried many things but still i can not find any sollution .
Please can anybody help????????
my galaxy s connects to 802.11n network to 65Mbps , so i guess it is not my router problem. The strange thing is that the application andromizer says that my device does not support 802.11n set ups.Can somebody download the application and inform what result does he take ?

In addition when i set my router to transmit only to n protocol , my mobile find the network and try to connect but i get a certification error
Please answer the question/statement in the second post:

My phone connects with the router at 75Mbit/s. The router has a reduced late-draft-N protocol with only 2 antennas so it's correctly using the maximum capacity.
If you have the choice, please try e.g. with a N-supporting Fritzbox of the manufacturer AVM or other similar high-end products. Low-end cheap routers tend to have ****ty hardware.
My router is d link DSL 2740B, I think it is a quite good router with 2 antennas, but as I say my other devices connect fine in 802.11n transmition , my Samsung TV , my playstation 3 , even my galaxy s1 connect with 65Mbps.
Here is my router wifi settings, if you have any suggestions

If you're running JellyBean and you DON'T have a problem with wifi disconnecting when the phone goes into sleep mode could you please post the model of your wifi router here?
Thanks
Belkin PlayMax N600 - you can see it here...Belkin N600 Modem
Orange Brightbox
VirginMedia Super Hub
Fritzbox 7170. Dead stock OTA JB T-Mobile.
Net gear 150 no problems
Try changing security on router
No issue for me with my old Netgear DG834Gv5
I have used the following routers and have never had issues with wifi sleeping:
Virgin Superhub 2 (Software version R36)
The Cloud (free wifi in cafe/pubs etc. UK) in numerous pubs and coffee shops.
Linksys WRT54G
I also use a D-Link one at a friends house but I don't know the model number, will update when I can get the details.
Belkin PlayMax N600 here also and works great.
