Hello, I just bought a Xperia mini pro a few days ago and there seems to have a problem with the wifi connection on my Lynksys Wireless-G router.
1. when it connects to the router it only has 5 to 10 sec time span connection.
2. tried an application called wifi static on the android market using my mobile network and it didn't work
3. since i am just new here tried to read some forums for 5 hours and didn't get any info or I just got lost in between threads.
4. I don't know how to solve the issues with the router although I am seeing the same problems with other devices. No problems with laptops, other some brands of phones, apple products)
If there is a solid solution to this problem please do reply.
First of all, I think you should try to reset the router.

I can download only a few kb/s, but upload is about 5Mbit/s....
Fw. is the stock hungarian T-mobile and its rooted by zergrus.
Any way to solve it?
Thanks in advance!

Tried it dozens of times. I was trying to check on other forums and threads but unfortunately, i didn't see a direct solution. But I was wondering how a SK17i is affected by a fluctuation on a specific 2.4 ghz router. Although other devices work perfectly.
Is there a solution other than changing the rom? Maybe a program or a calibration that is permitted by the device without sacrificing the warranty?
How?

I appreciate your help although im just gonna ask on a specific way to change that. Im still new at this I hope you understand. My expertise lies in a different category. If there is a way that you can help or help on providing a thread on how to change it, it is well appreciated.

im just saying i have wifi problems too and thats cause im on .42 fw. so im asking u what firmware version youre now on. if its .42 than thats most likely the cause of your wifi problem.
so my suggestion is try to upgrade your fw to .58 or .62 and the wifi problem would be gone i guess.
iam now trying to flash to .58 to fix my problems like yours too
edit: if its firmware fault then thats nothing you can do, i have tried wifi fixer from the market and its not fixing so the only way is to upgrade to the latest firmware and thats if youre actually currently on .42 fw

I upgraded to .62 using the pc companion. still having wifi problems. Any suggestions? I tried yesterday roaming around the neighborhood testing the wifi system of all the neighbors using different types of routers. It is working with their router. Unfortunately, my house and my parents house have the same router with the same problem.
I'm looking for a solution that can bypass any router so i wont have any problems wherever I go to. Using my HTC smartphone it works perfectly. Although SK17i doesnt agree with the thought.

well then the answer is simple.
fix your router!
because it is your router fault. not the phone
I had the same problem with my lynsys router when I got my mini pro, it would connect for a bit and disconnect, actually all the devices connected to the router would lose the connection. The fix, updated the router's firmware. No problems since then.
hope that helps.

Thanks so much for reminding me that. I just tried it today and it worked. Although I searched for more than an hour for an answer.
For those who has a Linksys wireless-G Router version 7 (not in the linksys website, I dont know why) just search this code below on Google or your preferred search engine.
FW_WRT54Gv7_*7.00.8.008_2*0090709.bin
Got mine in this website
bergfiles.com/i/bf4859cb7ah32i0
Combine this with the latest SK17i update using the PC companion
And everything will work smoothly

Just fixed it. I appreciate the wake up call. I thought there is a way around it.
The modem was reset so I checked the net. Saw the key to opening up the router website. I left the user id blank and put the password "admin" and got through the router website.
Thanks =]

Now before you all point me towards thread that don't have any solutions, I know for some reason the X10 seems to have WiFi issues.
Mine for instance sees the network but doesn't even bother connecting at all.. Running on R2BA020 Base 1.1.25 and I was wondering if anyone has had the same problem and managed to fix it
Cheers

Try updating your firmware and see if that helps.
I had a similar problem to this. I just changed my Wifi password and it connected after. See if that works.
it used to happen to me a lot on my dir 615
i just reset the router when it happens and it'll fix itself
the problem got solved when i actually got the newest router firmware that addressed the periodic wireless disconnection and never had to reset it again

It does the same on other routers as well, both of which are pretty much set up the same
I will try updating the firmware even if Java hates me right now,

Did you try Blade Wifi Fix?
My problem was slightly different. I was able to connect after 4 or 5 attempts. However, it would disconnect every 10 or 15 minutes. Also, there were times it simply couldn't find my wireless network...
After things got better...
Oh I'm rooted...
ok i have just rooted with Z4 root i will install that and let u know
thanks

Blade wifi fix doesnt work on UK Xperia x10! shame
Hi all, as the thread title says... for some reason, my x10mini keeps on restarting my router at my paren't place and also the router at my home... the router i have at home is a Cisco router so it's a well known brand, so i assumed.
It's annoying because the rest of the family loses internet and when my bro is in a game he gets disconnected causing huge wars between family members
I've been having this issue for ages now, with all the ROMs that i've used starting from stock before root was possible until now where at this moment i'm using NobodyAtall's MiniCM6-1.0.0-RC2 but like i said it's been happening for months now with all the ROMs.
Is anybody else having the same issue or maybe have a possible solution for me?
I've been having the same problem, not with my android phone though. When for example, download at max speed on my computer via the wifi, it would randomly reboot.
I googled for like 2-3 weeks until i got a really nice answer. Changing the broadcast channel on the router to 1. Try that and get back to me!
It's weird i guess, but my other computer, when downloading at max speed, it wont reboot the router. So it sure is devices communicating with the device differently or something.
Not really into networking, but hope it helps!
Edit: won't hurt trying!
Thanks, going to try it out and see how it goes. I'll post soon with hopefully a good result
Nope, doesn't make a difference - I've changed the wireless channel to 1 and tried again and still, the router resets itself...
Any other ideas?
Buy new router.

Happens to my router at home as well as my parent's... so it would be way too much of a coincidence if it was both that were faulty.
if both are the same router check their firmware if they have the same update your routers firmware. or update firmware on your router first and check whether the problem is solved

My router D-Link DIR-655 with Firmware 1.21 have the same problem too.
So i guess buying a new router could be the only option until Android fix this issue.
I may have found a fix for it - not ideal but it's working. I've disabled WAP/WEP security and have activated MAC address control and have allowed for my phone's MAC address to connect to the network.
Since making the change, i haven't had a single router restart.
What an absolute schlepp to add the MAC address every time i want a wireless device to connect but it's working.
Hope this helps.
If your router is Cisco Linksys, use dd-wrt firmware on it. I have both e2000 and 610n and both have uptime of months with lots of devices connected..

hi.. im using this phone since 5 months n ive repeatedly noticed that its WiFi reception is quite bad, as compared to other phones. im barely ever able to use WiFi internet in university while my friends can do it. mine usually cant even connect while they can browse internet, a nokia express music does better than mine too!
is it only my handset's issue or somebody else also facing it? im on stock Ics, never did rooting n all.
suggest remedies too, if possible. thanks!
It is easy

You have two good ways 1 is to do a software repair using PC Compania Update Service or SUS .... Flash Kernel 2nd or customize your ai will be necessary to unlock bootloader.
Hmmmmm...your best solutions is to flash different baseband into your phone....you need flashtool to do it so download flashtool and different kind of baseband for LwW....remember to make backup first before you start flashing....

Nanobackup not restore problem with error flash on baseband!
It's a good idea ti root your device. Ans flash a custom rom
But also try some WiFi softwares before

no, it's just a desperate cry
You should try to reboot your router and also clean the IPs assigned by DHCP.
Also, try setting a fixed IP for your Mate 10 Pro.
But If it's happening on other wi-fi hotpots too, then i'm afraid that the issue is elsewhere.

Mine had not problem with wifi, even with initial firmware. Try to reset the wifi router, maybe that will fix the wifi slow connection (My old router had to be resetted always to fix the temporarily occuring slow connection on all devices, including laptops and pc)

Thats weird. As you are still in warranty (device came recently onto the market) I would go to the seller and reclaim it. I am sure you will get a spare.
I've had exactly the same problem, sent it back today for a replacement.
