Wireless network keeps stopping... - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

anyone got any solution, it can drop after 10 secs, and im sitting right in front of the router.....

Possible fix:
Had the same problem - the wifi never stayed connected.
I've followed this procedure with the wife's Iphone and my X10 and it seems to work - dunno why, but it does.
BTW I have a Netgear Router.
1.) on the X10, Forget any connections you have set up with your router (Hold on the connection then select Forget)
2) Turn off WiFi (Tap WiFi)
3) Access your router and enter the Wireless section (see your manual - it varies Router to router)
4) Turn off any security you have set up on your router. You may need to APPLY the change and then RESCAN the router to actually transmit it. If you connect to the router via WiFi you may need to re-connect your computer to continue.
5) Back on the X10, turn the wiFi back on wait a minute
6) Refresh the network list (Menu button > rescan)
7) Select your Network name and connect (hold on the Network name, then select Connect)
8) The X10 should now connect to your unsecured network.
9) Back to the Router and re-enable the Network Security (APPLY and RESCAN if necessary). Again you may be disconnected if you use WiFi for your PC, so re-connect.
10) Back on the X10 and you are disconnected again. The X10 may be displaying a Password requirement, if not then Tap on your Network and select connect - it'll appear.
11) Enter your Password, and you should be connected.
Hopefully - with luck and a following wind, you are connected and it won't lose it again....
Good Luck!

Help: Wifi not connecting

Since Yesterday my wifi hasnt been working. It just randomly stopped connecting and im not sure why. It askes me for my network code and when i type it it (exactly how it is) it says network key incorrect and wont work. and when im at my friends house whhere there is no need for a network key, it says that IE cannot display the page. Also it keeps trying to dial out verizon broadband when my wifi switch is on. Isnt it not supposed to do that?
Just because the Wifi switch is on does not mean the wireless is enabled. Have you tried using the connection management button (the one just below the power button) to bring up the connectons screen nd make sure that WLAN is enabled and it's not in flight mode or anything.
Also go to Start > Settings >Connections > Wireless LAN
Check the MAIN Tab.. you should see all the fields filled in and a signal Quality Meter.
The ADVANCED Tab will show your IP and Status..
That should help you determine if you are really are connected.
yes my wifi is enabled in the connections manager. and in the settings it does not show that i am connected to a network.
when you search for wireless networks, do you SEE yours? or are you entring it manually?
yes i see mine. It pops up to notify me and asks for my Network key. and when i enter it it tells me its wrong but i know its not beacause i was looking right at the linksys network on my home computer.
I seem to remember there being an issue with WPA keys at some point.
Try removing the security from the access point... then try to connect. (I'm not suggesting this as a perminent fix, just to see if it's a problem connecting, or a problem with the encryption. Turn the Security back on after the test.)
I know you tested at a friends.. but try this anyway. If you can connect ok, then you have an encryption issue... if you still cant, you have an issue with the wireless itself.
what ROm / Radio do you have?
What kind of security do you use? WEP? / WPA-PSK?
How Long is your key?
Yes i think its my encryption becasue i went to work today (A campground) and connected to their unsecured network right away. My friends internet is always messed up anyway.
I am using DCD 3.2.5 ROM
and radio 3.42.50
Its a WEP Encryption and the code is 10 characters long

[Q] WiFi issues

Hi,
I have the following issues with my Razr:
1. When connecting to my home network, sometimes the WiFi logo won't turn blue. This causes google talk to be unable to sign in. However the phone is connected to the network, internet browsing with Dolphin and Market work fine. Rebooting fixes the issue, when connecting now the WiFi logo turns blue as soon as connected and all is good.
2. I can't connect to my university's wifi: it is an 802.1x secured with PEAP and uses MSCHAPV2. When I set up the connecting (which i have to do manually by long pressing network -> modify settings) it fails to connect (says connecting to... then Disconnected). Weird thing is when modifying the network again, the settings are screwed up (e.g. set to use TLS, MSCHAPV2 unselected).
Does anybody have any ideas what to do about these (except for waiting for an update?) I am using the 651.73.18-version, so not updated so far...
Also, WiFi strength seems rather crappy with the Razr, i'm only getting ok signals where i used to get good ones with my desire and fail to connect when my cheap hp netbook connects fine...
Thanks lots for any help!!

[Q] S3 Wifi, Roaming and Time Issue. Please help

I am away form home now and facing some frustrating issues with my new S3.
1. I cant connect to any WIFI network though the WIFI connection has very good signal strength. I always get the msg 'Network disabled. Poor Connection'. There is nothing wrong with the WIFI as i can connect it with my laptop and my buddy could connect to it using his IPhone.
2. My roaming time is completely wrong. It does not follow the time of the country I am in. It is showing the same time as my home country network. Shouldnt it automatically detect the network and shows the correct time like Iphone?

1. Restart the router & try just using 2.4Ghz in settings > wifi > advanced
2. Ensure: menu > settings > date & time > check [auto date & time] and [auto time zone]

2.I have already check both auto date & time and auto time zone earlier. But the problem still persists.

Hi, this is my first post, as I created my account specially with the purpose to answer you.
After being faced with the problem all day and reading all possible materials on the topic in google and here, my dad walked in and asked me why he is not able to connect to our home wireless connection.
This was when I retrieved my hope that the problem is not in the phone. And it was not! My iPhone, my laptop were able to obtain a internet connection in contrast to my other laptop and my S3! I restarted the rooter and everything was ok! Everbody got their internet dose !
So, most probably it isn't you!
Also have wifi problem, except it tells me it's an authentication error. I cannot connect to the WiFi unless I stand right next to it. Can't connect to WiFi anywhere (if you think it's the router in my house), even though the device detects the router. Sent it back to Samsung.

Hey, I experienced the same problem. But in my case, I am able to connect to the AP, if I am using a static IP address in the SGS3 instead of DHCP. Same router, no settings changed there. Just configured a static IP.
Cheers,
Jaegermeister
Same problem
Tried everything still not working, took it back to samsung they said it's working fine any other device is connecting without a problem but the S3 wont (i have 15 S3 with this problem)
Thanks
Bring back the phones to Samsung!

I'm also frequently getting the "Network disabled. Poor Connection" message when at home. I have 2 wifi routers:
- Buffalo WHR G54S
- Draytek 2920n
If I turn wifi off/on on the S3 it sometimes resolves the issue, but not always. Sometimes after turning off/on it shows a status of "Connected"but there is no internet connectivity. If I then switch to the other router I can sometimes (but not always) connect successfully.
I'm running Checkrom v5.5, and have tried both the Perseus and Siyah kernels - both have this problem.

WiFi 802.11n connection problem

Hi there!
Does anybody have a problem with connection to 802.11n network?
I can't connect to any 802.11n networks, but 802.11g is working fine. If I switch my router to "Only 802.11n" mode - SGS III is seeing the network but can't connect.
I have tested it on LF6, LFB and CM9 (lastest nightly)
My Notebook and GALAXY NOTE work fine with 802.11n.11n.
What's the problem?
I have had no issues with 802.11n networks; have tested a few.
Try going in to Wi-Fi service mode (*#0011# in keypad (may not work on custom roms), then select menu button, and Wi-Fi at the bottom; toggle power save mode off (default is on); try connecting again - this has helped me connected to some networks previously that didn't connect.
I have the same problem since I updated to Omega 8.1 based on lfb.

Ok. Thank you. I will try.
I have tried to switch WiFi power save mode off, but 802.11n doesn't work.
For me it is a really big problem.
Also I have already installed XXBLG1. 802.11n on it is not working too!
Guys, please, help.
HTC ONE X WiFi Connecting Problem
Hi all,
the following problem: I´ve bought a ONE X and want to log into the w-lan of my company which is secured with this 802.1x encryption. With my HTC HD2 (Leo) I just entered username and password, and there was no problem. The first that the ONE X requires is to set up a screen lock and still builds no connection. There isonly the message: Connecting ...
Tried with several Roms (HD revolution, Cahrmeleon, MIUI) but always the same. Have already edited the wpa.supplicant.config file and also tried with WIFI Advanced Configuration Editor.
Anybody got an idea whis is?
I have exactly the same problem! I think it is an hardware problem! I just wait a few days hoping its an software problem!

No Wi-Fi access in the 802.11n standard, and at a frequency of 5GHz.
To solve this problem is easy. Just follow the instructions:
1. Put with Google Play free program wifixmanager.
2. Turn off Wi-Fi.
2. Run. Push Install WiFix on request give the program as root.
3. Reboot.
4. Open your default dialer (Phone). Attention! Only regular dialer, do not use third-party applications. We type the code *#94349# and press "Call"
5. Wi-Fi reconnects.
6. Voila.
It is also recommended to the country code Wifix manager put EU, instead of the U.S..
If after the restart when connected to wi-fi internet does not work, turn the wi-fi or again to type *#94349# (*#WIFIX#).

[Q] Wifi issue in the Xperia X10

So I rooted and loaded the custom ROM on my Xperia X10 exactly following the instructions on the video found here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1305945 (Installed the ROM specified in the OP of that thread)
It works well, except for one issue. The wifi doesn't connect automatically to my home network even when within range; one second it is connected and the next it disconnects and doesn't re-connect. I then have to go to Wireless settings and wait for it to connect, which might happen immediately or after I select Connect. Sometimes, it just goes through a Connecting-Disconnected loop. Any ideas?
I've already set the sleep policy to Never and forgotten the network and added it again.
Apologies if this was answered before; if it was, I'd really appreciate someone pointing out the solution to me.
Open build.prop in root/system, mount as r/w
Search for this line and change scan interval to 30 second (or fewer) :
Code:
wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=30
You're done :beer::thumbup:
Sent from my E15i using Tapatalk 2
From first impressions, that *looks* to have sorted the problem out. Much thanks :good:
Unfortunately, that hasn't solved the problem, even after setting the interval to 10.
The problem goes like this:
I'm within WIFI coverage area of my home wifi, and the first time I switch wifi on, it connects automatically. After sometime, it just disconnects without reason as I'm using my mobile without moving out of coverage area. Now the most irritating part is that it doesn't connect automatically again. I'll then have to go to my wifi settings, select my wifi network (which proves that it's still in range) and select connect again. This again doesn't work all the time, and sometimes it just goes through the scanning->connecting->disconnected cycle. wifi sleep policy is set to Never fwiw.
I want to know how to stop it from disconnecting randomly even when within range, and connect automatically when in range, as this is extremely infuriating to use now
Is this a known issue with the mod that I'm using? If so, is there any other mod that I can use?
PS - The wifi was alright in the original SE device before rooting.
I have had this happen too.
I'm using DoomKernel V6 [root] on GB 2.3
Wi-Fi is active in a Wi-Fi coverage area with a stable connection and good signal.
Screen times out and after some time the phone is used again and screen unlocked.
Wi-Fi does not attempt reconnect to Access Point.
Status shows Wi-Fi in a state of scanning.
Preferred SSID is shown as available with good signal., but not connected/connecting
Disable Wi-Fi and re-enable Wi-Fi
Connection is re-established.
I have an XPERIA S v4.0.4 in the same Wi-Fi coverage zone using the same SSID and it connects every time. Just unlock the screen and a couple of seconds the preferred SSID is connected/re-connected. Every time.
XPERIA X10i
I did at one stage have a timed Airplane mode app that would disable Telephony and 6 hours later re-enable Telephony.
I was on a GB v2.3 build with DoomKernel V6 and XS system apps and after Telephony had been disabled is was _not_ possible to establish a Wi-Fi connection without restarting the phone. Although some times you could 'jag' it and make a re-connection, but mostly, it would only say disconnected and no options would re-establish a Wi-Fi connection to the preferred AP even when it was seen as an available AP and good signal. Disable and enable Wi-Fi did nothing.
After numerous other ROM/Kernel installs over time, I'm now back on GB v2.3 and DoomKernel V6 [root] with XS system apps.
This time round I only have to disconnect/re-connect to establish a Wi-Fi connection. No more phone reboots required, even in airplane mode.
Many times the Wi-Fi connection does re-establish itself, it's just a nuisance when it doesn't do it every time and you have to disable/enable Wi-Fi to establish a connection.
What I've tried without success.
[X] Added a static ARP on the router
[X] I changed wifi.supplicant_scan_interval down to 50 from 120 no change after a couple of days.
[X] Changed advanced Wi-Fi timeout from AC power and screen-off
I'll check logcat next time and see if that gives any clues.
Thanks for the input
Now, can someone swoop in and tell the solution?
Anyone?
If no one has any idea, are there steps on how to install a new custom ROM instead of the existing one?

seems that your bootloader is locked because i saw on that thread that you talking about that you are on Zdzihu cm7 rom with his kernel for locked bootloaders ... so i recommend this one to you :
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?zhdzap0cek4pkvh
by ThJap its totally fast and stable with no issues
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193001
just download the zip file and put it on sd card then go to xrecovery :
1. Full wipe, Wipe dalvik cache, and wipe battery stats.
2. Flash the ThGo_v.XXX.zip package via xRecovery
then its done.
