Hi guys, in this days i have noticed a problem with my gsII.
Sometimes I have the gsII connected to my router but internet connection doesn't work.
I'll try to explain better what i mean... I start wifi on my gsII and use internet connection without problem. Then I set the phone in standby mode leaving wifi on. When after a while i want to use internet connection, it doesn't work. The telephone is still connected to my router but i can't use internet on the phone.
The only way to make internet connection work is to disable wifi e then reactivate it.
This is really frustrating....
I've got the telephone from three months but only now I'm noticing this problem because first I used to disable the wifi and activate it only when i need it.
Am I the only to have this problem? Is there a solution?
Thanks to everyone in advance... any help would be appreciated
A video is more than thousands of words, so this is an "example video" of the bug:

Test it with a different router, i.e. Cisco E4200.
It would a good idea but i have to buy a new router or go to some friend's house for 2-3 hours. I'll keep this idea in my mind thanks
I have this problem, mines a bt home hub v3. Don't think its the router I blame the phone. I have to restart phone to make it connect with ability to use internet

I do not know what " standby mode" is? I have the same phone and have no problems with wifi. The phone goes to sleep when I do not use it and awakes when I use it.
It seems that your phones wifi is sleeping and not waking up. I always turn it off when not using it anyway. Not the full answer but it works for me.

I don't use wifi very often, but I do notice this problem with 3G data. Modem problem? I'm using kh3.

I believe I know and had the problem you describe.
For me the Wifi would work perfectly at first and then after the phone had been left for a while I would try to use it and get 'no connection' type errors. Sometimes it would even stop working even if I just waited too long with the phone still on in my hand.
I found that if I either disabled router wifi security or set it to WEP the problem disappeared. The issue occurred on 2.3.3. My router is a DLink one fyi. I have yet to test 2.3.4 which came out yesterday in Sweden. Ill let u know.
What version android are u? Does relaxing ur wifi security fix it??

I really should have said that is a workaround not a fix. I can add also that I have contacted Samsung about it. They cannot confirm or deny thru issue but suggested that I take the phone to their service centre. Yay...

Ehm...For standby mode I mean that I lock the phone, I only shut down the display....understand what I mean?
If you turn wifi off when you don't use it, you'll never see this bug. Try to leave wifi on for some hours if you want to understand if also your gsII has this bug.

Ps: A really strange thing of this bug that i've noticed is that internet connection doesn't work but the program androidVNC perfectly works!! Instead if I try to open 192.168.0.1 (router address) with any browser (opera, dolphin, stock's browser) it doesn't work!!

I tried changing the channel also. I have heard others getting this to work. Didn't work for me. You can use Wifi Analyser app on phone to find a clear channel and see how u go changing your router perhaps?
I tried re flashing also using factory restore. No fix for me.
Also noticed that u can sometimes get phone to work by toggling Network Data on/off. Not really fun either.
The wifi channels and security settings I am talking about are settings in the router not the phone. What wifi security are you using in your router?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I am not a believer the router is at fault in any case. I would entertain an incompatibility but nothing more.
Original router and security settings work fine for...wait for it...an iphone 3gs and a Motorola Defy (yes the phone which seems to have issues with doing everything else!)
Either way an incompatibility is not acceptable either if that's what it is

I know this, and in fact i have to switch off and on wifi connection when this happens.
Now i'm trying to use channel 5 with the router ( but yesterday I've tested channel 6 and 13 without any result)
I hate this bug because beacause it happens only when he wants! I'm quite sure that assistance wouldn't solve the problem. A friend of mine has changed three gsII and said that every gsII that he has changed had this bug!
Ps: Another question.... How often do you have this bug?
Once a week? Once a day? Three times a day?

Is NOT the phone.
i have the same problem reported in the 1st post.
i have been turning wifi off and then on again for a quick fix until now but i think the solution might be to drop the security on the router from WPA to WEP. Haven't tried it yet tho, because it doesn't bother me that much.
I had an ipad previously (before i had the SGS2) and it had exactly the same behaviour. I looked up the problem then and found a FAQ from the ISP that mentioned a compatibility problem between ipad and that router, so their suggestion was to set the router to WEP only.

Easily more than 3 times a day but then I use the phone a lot.
Problem had never occurred when I used only 3G. That was my workaround when I got fed up with it before I dropped the wifi security.

For me it happens always after the phone comes back from stand by with wifi on.
steps to reproduce:
1-turn wifi on, and check it's connected and working
2-press power button to turn off screen
3-turn phone back on, try to access a new web page, it doesn't work
I noticed that while it's in stand by i will still receive email notifications so it probably only looses the connection when i turn it on again.
Also, if there was some program working (say, a download) when i went into standby it will probably still be transferring when it comes out of stand by, it's just the new connections that fail.
So I've got my Ray for a few months now, but ever since I have problems with the WIFI and GPS connections.
GPS:
I used to use Navigon on my Acer Liquid, but that app doesn't work anymore unless there's an active data connection and I don't have a data plan. Now I use CoPilot Live Premium 8.xxxx. App itself works well, but the GPS signal get's lost every few minutes and I have the feeling this is getting worse. Especially in cities it's posible I have to wait for like 15 minutes to have a signal and after that the signal gets lost every 2 minutes or so. Is this just due to a poor GPS receiver in the Ray or what?
WIFI:
I can connect to my router (WPA2-Personal AES) but only for 2 minutes. After that, the icon in the status bar shows that my Ray is still connected to the router, but there is no internet connection anymore, eg in the market pages keep on loading most of the times without saying the connection is lost or so and I have to turn off WIFI and turn it on again after a minute to have it working again for 2 minutes -_- If I do this a lot, it even kicks my computers of my network and I have to reboot my router
I hear there a quite a few problems with the WIFI in kernel related situations and it's often solved by using a custom ROM, but I would like to stay on stock ROM.
What could be causing this? The router, the WIFI security...? I didn't have the chance to test it on another router, maybe tomorrow.
Any help would be appreciated!
For the wifi, if you could test it on another network, we could know if the problem comes from your phone.
For the GPS, if your phone is rooted, I suggest you this application, with every Android phone I have I use it, and I have a some-seconds signal acquisition. It may fix your problem, but I don't understand its origin.

Thanks for the app tip, I will try it!
Try sygic for navigation. It's free and for now it worked with no problems for me.
I have some problems with wifi too. At home i can connect to the router freely, when using my laptop as router it shuts the laptop down, at friends it restarts his router it almost looks like Ray is to aggressive when connecting.
I looked into the problem again today and finally, I got it working.
The things I did:
1) Router firmware update (Dlink DIR-615)
2) Removed Ray's DHCP settings from the router and added them back manually so it never expires.
(Up till this point I still had the same issues.)
3) Changed the WIFI mode from N and G mixed to N only
=> PROBLEM FIXED

Do you have some advice?

I had the same issue when I bought my US model. But I only had the issue with my home wifi and not anywhere else. Can you connect at another location and see if you have the same issue? I ended up just replacing my old Belkin router and haven't had an issue since.

Try installing KeepWifi, see if that works. Otherwise it could be your router configuration, like the kind of encryption you use for your wifi password. Try to reset your router but don't use any password for a little while, if that works, use another encryption method.

Solution
I've changed the "Client Lease Time" in my dhcp server (ddrwrt) from 0 to 99999 minutes.
It's working end I don't know why
I read this solution in an old XDA item of this forum. Thanks!!!
Hi
I have the same problem with my G70. For to have the max signal in the device i need to go beside my router. I have try with other router but the problem is the same.
maybe is only the display animation in the screen? I say that because i check the quality of my signal at it tell me GOOD.
im also having this problem on my I9003.
the wifi sleep policy has a bug.
some say that your Security/password should be WPA or WPA 2, they said this happens on WPA-secured routers, i haven't confirmed it though.
the only temporary solution for this is to disconnect or turn off the wifi in your phone settings and turning it on again, then you can connect again.
Due to the ROM,i think.Because wifi on 2.2.1(mine is YP-G1) functions great
Dose G70 have a ROM of 2.2.1?If so,you can try it yourself if you like
well i found a fix for this bug, just download the latest version of WiFi fixer from the Play Store.
that's the easiest way to fix this wifi sleep bug.
Hello, I am having the same problem, but I suspect my situation is worse. I've even tried the wifi fixer app, but my 5.0 drops wifi and breaks large downloads and games that require constant connection.
Do I have a defective unit? Any advice and help would be much appreciated.
Solution! (for me at least) go into your router settings on ur PC and change the lease time to either Forever or 30 minutes ( I can't remember which one). It worked for me... good luck

I had this wifi problem with 2.3.5 it was really annoying . Even if i was a meter from the router the signal sometimes dropped to 1 line. Samsung fixed this problem with the 2.3.6 update, and now the signal is ok.

Not the best solution, but....
I have the same problem that happens with my SGP 5, my friend's IPAD, and the Actiontec Router that Verizon supplies with their FIOS service.
I've tried every other remedy that I can find with no success.
The only solution that works for me is to assign a static IP address to the devices. It results in a very solid and stable connection in both cases.
Hope this helps someone else !!
Thank you all for the advice, but nothing seems to work, and I have no idea how to force it to upgrade the os from 2.3.5.
I don't know what to do now short of sending it to Samsung for service.

Download from samfirmware (or anywhere else) the XXKPL firmware.If you are 5.0 international, simply flash it with Odin. US users must make a new tar with just the "factoryfs.rfs" in it and flash it with Odin. That will upgrade you to 2.3.6. However, if you do that, I strongly recommend installing one of the custom kernels, so it won't be impossible to root.

I have a Rogers (GSM) EVO 3D.. Got it last month.. On stock RUU and as well as Yoda's ICS ROM (Yoda's Kernel), the wifi automatically keeps turning off and on when its enabled.. tried flashing Stock RUU again but that also is unable to solve this problem..
Can this be a Hardware issue?? any insights plz..
It's definitely not a solution to your problem, but you might try installing Wifi Analyzer which is free from the Play Store to gather more information. WiFi drops can sometimes be attributed to channel conflicts between multiple access points, and that tool will help you see how strong your signal is and what might be interfering.

ramjet73.. thanks a ton.. interesting observation.. my wifi router is placed hardly meters from my desk with almost no blockage is between. normally the signal strength is -85dBM. but when wifi analyzer is switched on it increases to -65dBM(goes down once its closed..
Its currently on Channel 6 and all the channels are with full star ratings.
Only devices attached to my router is a wired desktop, and on wifi a laptop and 2 android phones.
The problem has not occurred while wifi analyzer was switched on.
Will update after further observation.
another option could be to go into you settings and while in the wifi section, hit menu and and go to advanced and check the box for best wireless etc...
That might help as well.

Hey guys,
I tried to find something about my problem, but there's only on thread here with a similar problem without any informations, so I decided to create a new one.
I'm sorry if there's already a solution and I was too dump to find it... If there's one, I'd be very thankful for a link.
So.... I own a X829 6/128 with a German SIM and it works very fine for me. After trying different ROM's I'm now at RR 5.8.5 @ 7.1.2 and it's really good.
But it doesn't matter which ROM I flash, I'm tortured by constantly wifi-drops.... In the meanwhile I even changed the router and repeater at home to different devices, played with the 2.4- and 5-GHz-bands and channels, and it doesn't matter what I choose (2.4/5 on the router or 2.4/5 on the repeater): The phone is constantly dropping the wifi.
Sometimes it's working for 30 minutes, sometimes it's dropping the connection after 5-10 seconds... I flashed different radio's, but no change.
It doesn't matter if I'm doing something "online" or if the phone's just lying on the table.
Thanks alot in advance!
Lot's of greetings an Merry Christmas!

But to be honest - i just realized when i read your post ... to me its like 99% its working and sometimes not then its in 3g 4g network. I usually do not even realize
Hey there,
nah, for me it's like vice versa. Mostly I can't even do a speedtest without the connection dropping...
Loading news? I have to try several times...
Download something? Hahaha, forget it!
Since the X829 has no B20 I really need Wifi at home, cause here's only Edge available besides LTE.
I'm really out of ideas.
Yesterday I found a thread about a Samsung phone with some similar problems, where the solution was diable the localisation via Wifi/Bluetooth, so I changed mine to GPS only, and it was working like a charm - at first.
After like 30-40 min. the same error occurred again.
Btw:
Here's the Hardware I have tried at home:
- Telekom Speedport Smart Router (Huawai) - replaced
- Telekom Speedport W925V (Arcadyan) - current
- TP-Link RE200 AC750 Repeater - replaced
- Netgear EX6150 AC1200 Repeater - current
As I said... I tried every configuration with a/b/g/n... Different channels instead of automatic...
It's really annoying.
Thanks alot for your help, but now go to you family y'all!

Soooooo..... You haven't really mentioned trying it elsewhere. Have the same problem at a different location? Do you have multiple devices using the WiFi? I had a similar problem when I bought a smart TV, while streaming Netflix router "kicked" off the other devices.

Yes. I haven't any Wifi's to try nearby. And when I connected so one in a restaurant for example, I haven't watched it all the time.
In the meanwhile I disabled the WiFi of the Router. I connected the repeater via cable and set it up as AP. No changes (the router can't drop a device which is not directly connected to it, right?). Also I gave the phone a static IP outside the DHCP-range, to make sure the router (DHCP server) can't kick me via releasing the IP.
(I've tried that because we use TV-over-IP "Telekom Entertain"... Usually the router uses WMM/QoS to make sure the bandwidth is always enough for TV Unfornately I can't change that, so I decided to set up the repeater as AP)
No real changes. Sometimes (like now) it's working like a charm. Sometimes it's dropping like every 10 seconds.
PS:
While I wrote this there was only one drop. ^^

Yes. I haven't any Wifi's to try nearby. And when I connected so one in a restaurant for example, I haven't watched it all the time.
In the meanwhile I disabled the WiFi of the Router. I connected the repeater via cable and set it up as AP. No changes (the router can't drop a device which is not directly connected to it, right?). Also I gave the phone a static IP outside the DHCP-range, to make sure the router (DHCP server) can't kick me via releasing the IP.
(I've tried that because we use TV-over-IP "Telekom Entertain"... Usually the router uses WMM/QoS to make sure the bandwidth is always enough for TV Unfornately I can't change that, so I decided to set up the repeater as AP)
No real changes. Sometimes (like now) it's working like a charm. Sometimes it's dropping like every 10 seconds.

Hmmm. I don't have that much experience with routers. But I can suggest 2 ideas.
At some point, at a different location, confirm its your device with the problem.
Second is try a VPN from your max.
Seems like a simple solution your missing. Assuming your phone is in working order, software solid, just WiFi dropping out sounds crazy. Especially if there hasn't been any other instances around the forum.
Good luck, sorry I haven't really helped.
Hello, I have the same problem as you, the only solution I found was to install the Rom CUOCO 92 28s, after installing, you go into WIFI, then advanced settings, look for WIFI frequency band, select "use only 2.4GHz band So, after that normal wifi works, unfortunately you're going to have to go back to Android 6.0.1, but your wifi will work

Still thanks for your replies and help thinking!
A VPN would also drop (it's not the transfer itself, the whole connection is gone), I think. And I noticed this problem first since I flashed an Android 7/N-ROM, as itsbianchi said.

Thanks alot! But I don't really wanna go a step backwards. I hope there's a stable/official 8/O-ROM soon to try. And I still can't figure out why they put away the possibility to manage your networks/settings on your own. -.-
But if there's no other option, I'll give it a try. Thank you!
Greetings,

Some update
I found in the dev-settings an option for a "more agressive handover" to mobile network.
When my understanding is correct it should handover to mobile network ealier, if the wifi-signal is weak. I just activated that setting, to see if the the connection is lost more often (because I thought that maybe the threshold of that setting is too high -> switching between my Wifi and Mobile all the time). But it seems that it's more stable now... I dunno why. I just checked it like an hour ago. Maybe there's no change, since sometimes the connection is pretty stable and sometimes it's dropping all the time. I'll just try it for the next hours/days...
Btw:
I was in a restaurant with an open wifi two days ago: Not one drop while I was there (I checked the connection as often as I could).
Maybe some food for thoughts for you guys...
Friend, enter the LAN settings of your router, but in the protocol of IPV6, and disable the assignment of IPV6, I was col this same problem.

I have similar problems with wifi. Wifi connection does not drop but I can't download large files or I can't install apps from Google Play store larger than 5 MB. Download process stops after several megabytes. I tried so many ROMs including Cuoco92's 23S and I tried "use only 2.4GHz band" setting in 23S but I haven't tried Cuoco92's 28S. Because I read a lot of bad comments about Cuoco's 28S. Do you think should I try Cuoco's 28S?
Or is it a hardware problem?
