I don't know if its just me but, my phone seems slow while on my home wifi. I haven't checked wifi anywhere else. And my signal on the phone seems to be weak at times even while sitting in the same room with my router. My cappy seems faster in this area. Also streaming some video seems to be slower on my sgs2 vs my cappy at times. Any tips/advice...?
BTW..my device is vanilla as of yet...

Well, at present, I'm on Cognition. So, I can't give an exact parallel as far as circumstances and setups; however, my phone is extremely fast when running on my wifi connection at home. I haven't really focused much on the reception, but from what I remember it has been excellent as well. If I'm in the same room, it's completely full. If I'm elsewhere in the house I still tend to have decent reception(more than just the one bar).
I'm not sure what to suggest for better performance outside of possibly considering flashing an alternative ROM instead of just running it stock. The process, overall, is honestly quite simple. I do understand though that some people like to run the phone the way that it came out of the box. It's just a suggestion.
Outside of that I mean maybe an issue between your router and your phone, but honestly I doubt that.
I appreciate the response. I'm puzzled by this...as I am no expert I'm also not new to flashing roms. My cappy is on a modded rom. I'm just giving the devs time to work out the bugs! Thanx again!

The BCM4330 used in a LOT of mobile devices just plain doesn't seem to like some routers.
At my home, the signal strength always looks low before connecting on my GS2, Tab 10.1, and Infuse (All BCM4330) - then it suddenly looks better when I connect.

Hates D-Link (battery drain, loss of range).
Loves Netgear (less battery drain than HSPA, excellent range).
At least that's the case with the international version.
Have a NetGear and my wifi flies. of the couple dozen or so routers I have set up for family and friends NetGear seem to always be the easiest to set up, connect the most consistently, and give the best all around speeds for both net surfing and console gaming.

My phone was downloading normal speeds earlier. Then I rooted in and flashed Cognition X2 beta 4.
Now my speeds are REALLY slow. (takes forever to download something as small as 4 Mb...)
Idk if anyone else is having the same issue
check your router for firmware updates, if there are, appy them and then retest if your speeds are still slow
Interesting..as I am using a d-link gaming router. Will have to check into firmware update..had the router a few years never updated it.

ive had a number of friends that get new phones and have complaints like:
whats wrong with my phone it wont connect to my router, or get sporadic connections, drop for no reason, slow x-fers...
first thing i do is update the firmware, you'd be suprised at how many issues can get 'fixed' when your router gets updated.
so, i'd start there first..
Yea, I'm going to give that a try..thanks for the heads up..!

Ok so first off my internet connection is perfect, and it isn't my internet because my internet works fine, now to my issue....
My WiFi on my amaze turns off by itself every 5 minutes, but not only that it throttles and I can't get a stable connection to my internet, I tried loading google and it took me 5 minutes because my WiFi was disconnecing and not working even though I have full signal
It's not my Rom, or any Rom (it happens with my Rom, Mikes rom, and NRG's Rom)
It could be a hardware issue but I doubt it because my data connection is fine, although my connection has been weaker ever since this has started happening, any advice? Could be a radio issue but I havnt flashed a radio since the first leak so I dunno

I have the same issue. I'm on the latest stock ICS and my wifi has been acting up too. Weak signal strength and extremely slow. Wasn't like this before on GB. And, yes, my internet works fine on other devices at my house.

Does your security use WPA? I know that for some routers, the WPA handshake interval (also known as Key Renewal Interval) can be set too low. This is not something you can change with your phone, but with your router. I find that anything below 3600 *CAN* cause problems. Try changing it to 3600 and see if it improves.
Stupid question: Do you have the "Best Wi-Fi Performance" option selected? I find it that it helps sometimes.
No its not my router, my iPod touch 1rst gen loads pages fine, aswell as my old mytouch 4g

I have WiFi issues as well...I always reset the router everyday just to deal with it. The only time it works better is with stock. ICS or GB I don't have issues...only Roms.

My real world experience with it seems good .. but speedtest.net app shows only 5mb/s when is usually close to 15mb/s on hi.gingerbread (i pay for 15gb speed, so it made sense).
It never times out or has a hard time connecting tho
I'm running stock rooted .3 ics... Interesting find. I will keep an eye on it myself

Tried resetting your wifi router? That could be the issue, since I use both wifi/3G on the leak and official updates, both are fluent, hence the idea of a hardware issue possibly, but you can try reflashing the latest radio file. And I don't think wifi should affect network data, sounds like a hardware issue with that for sure.

I know, but it seems that the Amaze can be a bit sensitive. It wouldn't hurt to check the interval. If it's at 3600, great. If not, change it to 3600 and see if it improves.
It doesn't have to do with our routers. At least not mine. On GB, never experienced this issue. Same phone but now with stock .3 ICS I have trouble with connection and speed over wifi. Same at work. It must have something to do with the new ICS radio because I've experience the same issue on ARHD 2.2.1.

Then reflash the radio, see if it helps, my reception actually increased with the update, from 5-8mbps to 12-25mbps.
I should also mention that my wife's GS2 doesn't have WiFi issues. Stock GB...she won't let me do anything to her Sammy.

Done that. Flashed first leaked ICS - wifi issues. Flashed ARHD 2.2.1 - wifi issues. Flashed latest leaked/official ICS - wifi issues.
On the network, I get great signal and 23mbps in Beverly Hills. Wifi is just slow and weak. Pay for 10mbps download but phone does half of that.

Actually I was talking about network speeds, my wifi speeds are about 12-25 always. Maybe you should try a complete system wipe using the wipe script then reflash, just to clean up any old files lying around that may be blocking things up.

Hey guys,
tried to search if any other problems like this exist...
My WiFi seems to be disconnecting often... Meaning it still shows as connected, but it wont load internet pages or download anything / stop at some time downloading.
Now i tried to look at my WiFi with WiFi analyzer... at it seems that I am on the best channel for my area... but still... I also tried 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz same results it seems...
I am not happy with it... it seems so unstable, that even at home often i use 3G just because it doesn't crash that much... if the WiFi works i get great speeds though... but it seems like a hit and miss....
any idea?
You may ha e.faulty connectors as that is the problem w some of the one xs also go to WiFi settings switch it from auto to 2.5 GHz idk if 5ghz works well or not

I just updated the firmware on my router as well. Well check back after a couple days but so far so good
Wi-Fi not the greatest for me either. Running a WRT54GL which is one of the most rock solid routers ever with Tomato never have issues with it on my 3D or any other devices. Having similar issues you are having. Sometimes just not staying connected even though it shows connected. Other times no wi-fi on when I wake the phone. I'm guessing it's bugs other people have reported similar problems. Going to see how it performs after the next OTA update I'm hoping they fix some stuff. Also I hope they fix the very annoying set time zone message. Not sure what caues that but you are certainly not alone with the wi-fi issues.
I currently have mine set to 2.4Ghz only not auto since I don't use N for my phone there is no need for it and it sucks more battery at least it did on my 3D.
I would just hang tight and see what the next OTA brings.
This is disturbing. There seems to be a great deal of variation in build quality (i.e. Wifi issues, screen light bleed, data issues, etc.). I have had none of these issues with my phone. However, multitasking is a joke, and google wallet is broken after working previously. My phone is none stock at this point.

I added a post to another thread - in my case, I found a definite correlation between wifi drop and phone temperature.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29220238&postcount=28
Posting it here as well in case someone remembers how hot their phone was when their wifi drops..
Just throwing in my experience for the record...
I'm a network administrator for a living so I know a few things about making wifi work. In a nutshell my Evo LTE will not maintain a stable conneciton to *any* wifi N network under any settings. I've tried mutiple routers and multiple ROMs for my phone and none would work properly. I'll spare you the details but channels, encryption, spectrum, root, preamble... nothing would work on N.
WiFi G = rock solid
WiFi N = sucks more than Paris Hilton
Since I concluded that G works perfectly I've just made sure to stick with G networks. Not worth fighting Sprint for a new phone that may very well do the same thing for me. :victory:
Not sure if you guys are having the same issue I've been experiencing, but my wifi issues have went away since using Mozilla firefox. I messed with my router settings, used 2.4 ghz, 5ghz, wifi n, wifi g, different security configurations, a bunch of different wifi apps, just about every browser on the market and as odd as it sounds, only Mozilla has solved my problem. If I use any other browser, I get hang-ups and phone gives me the impression that wifi isn't working. I don't know why or how mozilla works great while all other browsers' performance is inconsistent and frustrating but its a fact. I strongly recommend anyone with "wifi problems" give mozilla a try.
has anyone found a solution to this wifi issue?
i can connect to my home router with no problem, very stable. but outdoors, on cablewifi, or optimumwifi the connection is terrible. the signal shows connected, but there is no data being uploaded or downloaded. i think it might have something to do with channel congestion, but my friends iphone has no issues whatsoever.
so whats the deal with the evo's wifi radio???
Hi,
Love the phone, but the wifi is so bad it is ridiculous. First of all, I always have to do *#0011# to disable wifi saver otherwise is it completely unusable.
But even then, it randomly disconnects. Seems this device is simply unable to deal with many APs or many networks. It is completely useless for VOIP because of this.
Is this going to plague this phone always? Meaning: is this something that can be fixed by custom roms and or kernels (I know samsung will prolly never fix)? Or is it simply the hardware that is badly designed and will always suffer from this?
FWIW this is not a universal problem. I usually flash a new custom ROM version about once a week to keep up with the latest ICS firmwares, and have never had any wi-fi connection issues. I'm often on 2 wi-fi networks throughout the day (one at home and one at work). I've never done the *#0011# trick or anything like that.

I do wonder if it is hardware related then...
My understanding was that this is very related to the routers. All my APs are running dd-wrt. Very annoying to see my iphone and ipad never having these issues whereas my daily driver (the s3) is pretty flaky. Maybe someday there will be a true fix!
No issues here either. Have a multi AP setup at home and work with upwards ten SSIDs at work. Mostly g/n networks. 2.4 and 5GHz works equally well. No problems anywhere, not even in town at cafes or my parents crappy Thomson all in one ADSL modem/router.
Using AOSP but Sammy original worked fine also during the first and only hour of use.

Dude, my s3 wifi adapter is very good. you should analyze your wifi AP and see who is sharing your channel frequency . Most people use same channel 6 by default. Channel 1 is the least used IMO and it's clean. If 1 and 6 are often used then use 11.

My main APs are on ch1 and ch11. Other networks are far away (no interference, and signal is pretty clear.)
To clarify: when I do the 0011 trick, my wifi is pretty stable, but disconnects from time to time making it too risky for me to get on a VOIP call for fear of disconnection. Speed is great though. And every once in a while, it will simply not switch correctly between my two networks (one in house, one in garage), it gets stuck on 'getting ip'. I then disable wifi and reenable, which fixes it. (thank god for WiFi Manager Premium's widget)
It is not unlivable, mind you, but it is pretty crazy annoying. Especially when ALL other wifi devices I have never have any issues.
Will try a full stock reset when JB comes out officially, that always seems to help in the many wifi threads I've read in the forums thus far.
this fixed my wifi problems when I was getting very slow speeds in the last few JB leaks

Hi,
I had exactly the same problems with wifi like the OP! My S3 was always either not connecting nor finding networks. Sometimes it worked and then the phone was loosing wifi all few seconds... reconnecting. Using skype was not possible!
Above that, pressing power-off to send S3 to sleep was not responding everytime... sometimes the screen stayed on but touchscreen was not responsive. Then power-on again it was not responsive, too.
So a lot of problems with a device at this high price...
After nearly 2 weeks I've sent it back and got a new one. Now everything works perfectly!
Both devices were updated to newest update LG8.
If it is a software problem, there is maybe something going wrong while updating, otherwise I would say it's an hardware issue.
Good luck!
I don't know the topology of your home network or equipment. But routing with Nat, and two different network using the same private ip address range could cause issues. Again I have no idea what's up with your network. Are you running a essid or two different networks?

Doubt it, simple enough setup. One main, one wired AP (both on same SSID) and a repeater bridge for garage, diff SSID. No problems with the laptops, apple devices, etc.
Will test out every kind of wipe/flash... I fear exchanging it will be hard seeing as this is an unlocked international version bought in Canada online.

It seems to be working intermittently now which is better than before.. My GNex and S3 have zero issues staying on wifi so not sure what would be different with this phone.
Chrome performs perfectly for me. No problems on wifi here either.

No Problems with chrom here and to be honest i think it runs better than stock. no issues with Wifi either
has anyone tried running Browsermark on both Chrome and the stock browser? it runs pretty decent on Chrome and gets a good score, but becomes hella laggy on the stock browser and gets a horrible score. anyone else see this?
I have to agree with the Chrome issue. Today I was trying to show my sister how much nicer than her S3 my new DNA was and I took both phones to this graphic intense website, mine loaded everything first but hers was scrolling much much better. I couldn't understand why mine was sucking so badly. She was using Chrome on her phone and so was I. Decided to open the same website on the stock browser and it started scrolling very smoothly as well.
I too have the problem now that Stock works better but I really enjoy the way Chrome lets me open my PC bookmarks and lets me open up whatever I have open on my other computers.
I did have a couple of issues today with the phone. While I was visiting my sister I found the phone to have no signal at all a few times. This is not something that ever happens in her house. I would say maybe Verizon was having issues but her Verizon S3 was working fine.
At another point in the day while sitting at the table talking I heard the "DROID" notification go off. I'm the only one with a Droid there so I knew it was my phone. I pick it up, unlock it and there are no notifications at all... This happened 3 times. . . The phone also had a horrible signal at this other house so I figured maybe it had something to do with the bad signal.
I've noticed really slow speeds with my wireless at work. No issues at home though. I can only get about 200kb down/up at work, but normal 15mb down at home. No one else was seeing any speed issues on their phones. Work uses Linksys wireless access points throughout the building. Didn't matter which one I was connected to. Haven't noticed any connectivity issues, it always connects quickly and holds a connection. And as far as vzw signal, this phone is much better than my GS3. Getting 2 bars of 4g at home now, where the GS3 stays on 1 bar of 3g.

Just click the name of you're home wifi network and select forget then connect to it back again then re enter your password... It works for me... I noticed at first.... that my Droid DNA somehow hacked to my WiFi routers even it's WPA password protected....It connected at first without requiring a password.....sounds kinda strange but it really happened. After few day's then I started to get the wifi issues..."even it's connected to my router" it won't allow internet access... Just follow the steps...I hope it helps >
I was having a similar issue where wifi was dropping and reconnecting. I read elsewhere that a reboot of the router would help. I tried this yesterday and it seems to be OK since.
Tests good on Ookla, but my V10 can't browse to save its own life. Just can't figure out why it's so slow. Worked great in the store.
Play Store apps seem to install/upgrade quite a bit slower too.

I have this exact issue, WIFI sucks and either drops or comes to a crawl on this phone. My G2 as well is super fast. Considering a hard reset but not sure if that will solve it or not. Such a hassle when I'm at home trying to use this phone on wifi.
I had good results turning off Enhanced LTE in Mobile Data setting on my AT&T device. Fixed an Exchange Sync issue, fixed browser response (except Chrome, which for some reason was never slow), and fixed some battery consumption concerns. Fixed Play Store download times, too.
Hopefully I'll turn that option back on someday to find that AT&T has fixed it.
