[Q] Few connectivity problems - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I got problems with my 3G connectivity. I've read this topic also:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239777
And manually selected my provider (Telfort).
But, my WiFi connection is also bad too. Sometimes it stops giving internet too. So I have to reconnect to the WiFi access point.
Beside that, When is coming 2.3.4 update to The Netherlands ?
Thanks.

WiFi issue on my Hero...

Hello everybody!
Someone of you has noticed a poor WiFi reception on Hero?
I'm experiencing a poor WiFi reception in my house when Hero is connect to internet thru an access point.
What happen is that after WiFi connection has been established the phone tends to loose it and restart connection thru GSM/3G link.
That happen also if phone stay in the same place without moving around and also when phone is close to access point location.
Any idea about way to solve the problem?
Regards.

Just an upgrade on issue...
If I turn off data connection thru GSM/3G and switch on WiFi seem that WiFi connection is stable so maybe issue come when both data connection are enabled...
Anyway is annoying shout down each time data connection on GSM/3D and power on WiFi!
Regards.
i believe wifi goes idle when not in use. so it connect to 3g or edge. However there is an app if not various in the market already to help keep wifi always on..
Do a search for wifi and see for yourself.

Thanks for suggestion!
At now I've solved turning off GSM/3G data connection when I'm at home anyway I guess that WiFi reception sometimes go away due to issue of the phone or maybe as way to save battery...
when that happen phone stay unconnected so I guess that should be better if I will check for apps that keep WiFi connection always working!

when the device goes into standby, the wifi is turned off to save battery poweer, and it will go back to 3G.
go into the wifi settings, press menu and select advanced.
select the timeout options
set to never and it will not turn off when in standby.
problem solved and you shouldn't have to turn off Mobile data, although with the settings widget on your homescreen turning mobile data off off each time is hardly going to ruin your life. in fact i tend to do this anyway, just cos i have spent too many years with windows mobile....
Here's an annoying bug I've found tho - on TMob UK
If I send an MMS from home, wifi on, it sits there, and doesn't send the message. Until I turn off wifi and 3G kicks in again.
Now I know for a fact that on my Magic, it was able to turn on 3g/HSPDA to send the message all by itself. Might have a look in thodse advanced settings tho to see if there is something I can do.. Not a biggie, just a bit of an annoyance.

I too, have been doing a search on Forums all over Google looking for a resolution to this.
I have noticed if Wi-Fi is enabled I am unable to send or receive MMS messages.
It is an annoyance having to turn Wi-Fi off each time also I am never to know if someone has tried to send a message in the first place.

[Q] Wi-Fi bug on R2BA026?

Hi guys,
I am having a problem with my Xperia X10i running R2BA026 build number and I wanted to know if any of you found a solution for Wi-Fi problem
I live in low signal area for T-mobile network. I connect my phone to Wi-Fi and it connect fine and I can use internet no problem. When I lose my signal to T-mobile network my Wi-Fi drops and then it reconnects when I have no signal but when my signal comes back then it disconnects again.
I tried couple of things such as changing Wi-Fi sleep policy to never, also I changed my network mode to GSM only, and also I entered static IP address for my phone and also changed settings on my ADSL router to remember my Xperia's mac address.
Is there any other way to resolve this issue without going back to older firmware?
Yes - it's a bug in the 026 build.. hopefully will be fixed in a couple of weeks when 2.1 lands..
Thanks. I really hope it does. Its such a hard bug for users, I mean you can be in middle of chat session and it disconnects then you have to restart the application.
I hope that comes out when they told us it would.End of September is close.
Apart from that phone is pretty good.

[Q] X10i Not connecting to Internet after 2.3.3 update

Hello everyone!
Just like everyone else I have been waiting infront of the screen for 3 days now to get this god forsaken update and when I finally get it everything works fine exceopt for the WiFi.
on 2.1 I used to get an Internet connection when on my WiFI, Now im connected to the router with full connection strength but I have absolutely NO internet connection, only an evil triangle telling me that I have limited network access.
This has happened to 3 of my phones (All of which are Identical)
And the only even closest similar issue here on XDA has been with the HTCD which dropped the WiFi connection if the signal was too weak, but mine is at full strength.
In short: My phone can do Everything but going on the internet...
What I have tried:
Putting the phone in DMZ
Disabling Firewall in the router
manually enter Static IP settings
anyone else experiencing the same issues and/or know how to silve it?
bump
[BUMP] just bumping this thread because without WiFi my use of the phone is limited to say the least...
Hi i get this too but ojly since the update, i have it working now but its still a problem it sorts itself out if i leave it on for a bit?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I have the another problem around since 2.3.3.
Wifi works fine,
But when not near a Wifi spot cannot access internet /send mms recieve mms , or download internet&mms settings. And this is the only similar problem i found <.<
But on your problem ofcourse might seem silly but im guessing your already tried rebooting/resetting the router? ^.
I beleive you have to be coolnnected to wifi to get settings for internet and mms.
And yes i have tried rebooting the modem but it didnt work so i just connect to the btopenzone signal my modem also gives off

[Q] Wifi connection problem - Omega rom v35

Hey guys,
Wasnt sure where to post this. Have a question regarding wifi conection settings. I was on omega v34 and everything was fine. My phone connected to all wifi networks I wanted it to. I updated to v35 of the rom and now I have a strange problem.
My phone still connects to my house wifi and work wifi, but refuses to connect to my parents wireless. Ive reset their router, changed the password and removed the settings for the network on my phone. When I refresh and attempt to connect to it all I get is "authenticating" and then it will give up. It is a BT home hub and the strange thing is that my phone will connect to the 'free wifi' BTwifi-with-FON and the BTwifi, but not the proper network zone BTHub3-T2G6. Its incredibly annoying.
Are there any hidden settings in my phone that may have the wrong settings for the network in it?
Any help would be appreciated
EDIT: Just turned the security off on the network and the phone connects fine. I dont understand why the security key would cause problems as it connected before the update and the settings havent changed.
