Hi guys i was wondering if any of you are having a problem with the Wifi , my s3 connects to the internet after 10 seconds it disconnects then reconnects then disconnects ...... etc etc never a stable connection! is there a simple fix or shall i send it back and get it replaced?
I had that problem at first but I got around it by doing this.
Forget the wireless router on your phone so it doesn't connect. Unplug the router and leave for at least 10 seconds without power then plug it back in and let it stabilize its internet connection.
Restart your phone and connect like you normally do.
It worked for me I had a problem with the virgin media router.
Good luck hope it works

Hallo everyone,
on Friday I bought a new Folio 100. Unfortunately it seems that the Wi-Fi doesn't work: the tablet connects itself only after I turn off and on my wireless routing.
If I disconnect the tablet (or the connection is lost) and then I try to connect it again, I have no chances The Wi-Fi connection cannot be established. Same if I turn on the Folio and try to connect it without a previous off-on of the router.
I have a WEP 64 Bit encryption. I tried to change it to WPA-TSK but the problem remain the same. I tried to connect to my Galaxy S using WPS2-PSK no way. The folio connects itself only after a restart of the router or with not protected nets.
I tried to install the Dexter mod 1.3a, with no results. Now I have the original FW 2.2.5.0053 back on (and the problem remains).
There is something I do wrong or I can still try or the tablet is definitely defective?
Please help me!
Thanks a lot in advance!!
Paolo
I had a similar problem: my WiFi network was seen as out of range by the tablet WiFi manager. And whenever I put the Folio in sleep mode, it lost the connection.
So, I changed the WiFi policy (in WiFi advanced settings: press menu button when on the WiFi configuration page, and choose advanced settings) to never turn off.
The tablet still has some difficulties to catch the network at startup (usually, I have to wait like 2 minutes), but now it keeps it.
Hope it helps...
Hello SinDeus,
thanks a lot for your advice, I've already tried this setting, but in my bedroom I've a bad signal and from time to time the connection get lost... and you can understand that it is really annoying to stand uphalf asleep to reset the modem. )
Anyway for the moment I've solved the problem exchanging my Belkin modem with a Zyxel of a friend of mine. The connection process is still quite slow, but at least it works without requiring a router restart.
Bye Paolo.
mine still not working...keeps on connecting/disconnecting......giving up soon...btw am using foliomod 1.3...even before when am using the stock rom..its so freaking hard to connect to my belkin router...only a few times tht i successfully get connected...help please!!!!
Hallo Neworder,
I had to exchange my router, the only way I was able to conect with belkin was restarting it.
I've also tried with static IP adress and changing the encoding type (WEP, WAP-TSK etc.) but the results was always the same. Even with the new modem the process isn't that smooth!
Quite annoying.
Sorry that I can't help you further.
the thing is if am connecting the folio to wifi connections in cafes/shops/eateries,no problem...fast and painless.
time to change modem router?
btw pademat which model of belkin u r using?am using a belkin 54g.
and ur new modem?zyxel which model?
Iv been having this issue for a few months and I tried searching around, couldnt find anything thats exactly like my problem
anyways, I have tried different versions of wireless tether and stil have this problem
80% of the time I launch the app, and start the tether, my laptop will recognize it and connect for only about 10 seconds. after the 10 seconds, my laptop will disconnect from the phone like the wifi network has been lost for "android_tether"
I have to keep start and end tether and reconnect and disconnect on my laptop's end as well... and finally if I am lucky, after rebooting both devices, it will randomly work without flaws.
what is the issue?... what can I do?...
thank you very much xda.

Which application are you using to wirelessly tehter? are you using any kind of encryption?
If you are running a custom rom there should be a setting under the wireless settings heading where you can activate and deactivate wireless tethering, i use this feature in place of any other tethering application as it seems to work the best with and without encryption.
Hi, I'm connecting to the internet over 3G router. While the connection is fine when I'm using the phone, it sometimes automatically disconnects when I don't use the phone for a while (20 mins and up)
Also, VPN always disconnects when I don't use the phone, even though I'm connected to the internet! I'm using the same paid VPN on my computer and it works just fine.
Any idea on how to have the Internet and VPN connected even if I put the phone away or lock it? the reason I'm asking is that I like to keep skype and viber on while I'm away, so I can pick up when I get calls from friends.
Thanks
Hey i have Sony Xperia D6502 and on a 5.1.1 version wifi connections dropped . I try hard reset and no result. What can I ?
Thanks , i have bad English sorry guys
Does the WiFi connect for a very short duration (for about 5-10 seconds and then drop connections)?Also does the WiFi slider get stuck at turning on position or the WiFi is unable to connect to any router(it says connecting but says saved later and doesn't connect)? If any of the above happens I can positively confirm that it's a hardware problem and you could send the phone for repairs.
Same problem for me
In my device WiFi stays connected, but internet speed keeps dropping when I go away from router to another room. For about 3-4 meters from router speed is very good, but behind the wall my internet is slow as hell. I tried test network speed on other devices, and any of them have this issue. I have latest Existenz rom, 4G works fine.
Hi guys, I'm having some problems with the wifi, when connecting on my router wifi it disconnects frequently, if I go into the wlan page it does like switching off and on repeatedly for a couple of times, then some other times it connects but says disabled line. If I connect it to my phone hotspot it doesn't give any problem. I tried to reset my router, it fixes the problem for a while but sooner or later it starts again. Can you please help me out? Thank you!
