Android wont switch to M.D when Wifi doesnt work - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
Im having a problem.
In my country my internet provider doesnt work soo good and I keep loosing my internet service a couple of times a day. The thing is that when I get home my android gets on my home wifi network, BUT even though the router is working fine sometimes I dont have internet access.
When this happens my android just stays with the Wifi network even if it doesnt have internet service and doesnt switch to mobile data.
I use to have a blackberry and it did the switch from wifi to mobile data jsut fine when ever there wasent internet service on the Wifi network.
Is this ok? is there a way to fix, it. thank you everyone I hope someone can help me.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100

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.
Currently using T-Mobile G2 (rooted with MCR Rom 2.8) on T-Mobile UK

Problem with HD2 (Tmobile)

My new T-mobile HD2 have some problem with wifi, It working normally with wifi in every where, but not in my home, in while my notebook is connect to wifi at home normally, when finding wifi, my phone found the neiborhood wifi as usual, and never saw my own wifi moderm, my old phone, HD1 was connect normaly, pls show me where is the problem and how to solver it. Tks in advance
if it isnt visible, try entering the SSID manually.
I've never heard of an issure like this!
I know it sounds strange, but try looking for it in a different area of the house ...
My HD2 will not see my wifi if I am too close to the router, yeah weird. But it also will not see it if I am standing too close to my tv ...
BUT, once connected neither of those things seem to make a difference ...

Same problem!
this is a comoon error on s3.many users are claiming this. i to have this problem. today i was at samsung smart center and it was working just fine there on wifi and data. but when i got back home started giving network error again on wifi. my router is a d link. they where using a lynksys router there. im guessing is either a router compatibility problem or you need to have a very fast and stable internet service on your wifi. samsung itself itz still tryna figure out whats wrong.anyone here has a very fast internet service and or a router difrent from d link and facing network problem?

phone issue, wifi, network

hi guys,
im looking for a little help if you dont mind. my z ultra is having issues when i dont have a wifi connection. while i have a wifi connection all is good but when i lose the wifi i am unable to access the net and browse unless i manually go into my setting and turn wifi of so the phones network ( three ) takes over and again then all is good.
do i have a setting wrong on the phone as surely when the phone loses a wifi connection the network ( in my case three ) should automatically take over and i should not have to manually turn the wifi off for the network to kick in.
any help would be great please.
