It Works ok if im less than 5 meters away from server. But anything over that and its unusable. I work about 10 meters from the server. And I get at least 2 - 3 bars of signal out of 4. And I can't even post a comment on here. The speed is very fast for about 30 seconds and then ridiculously slow. It also struggles to connect. Tries about 3 or 4 times before it connects. I'm running cm10 on s3 but have this problem on stock, omega and checkrom. I had simular problems with the s2 aswell but not s1. I don't want to use wifi kill as its my work and it might not solve the problem. Is this the s3 working on networks with multiple apns? Is there a code I can call to turn off power saving ?? Can't force to 5ghz either.
Some advice would be massively helpful. I am getting very frustrated.
Thanks in advanced

When on cellular data, this works fine. But when I'm on Wi-Fi, it doesn't work half of the time. I've tried different modems, and the problem is always there. Also, I realized that it takes the phone three times longer to send a text message when on Wi-Fi than it does on cell network. Anybody experiencing similar problems?

Edit: forgot to say - lack of cell coverage is not an issue. H+ available where the problem occurs.

I don´t have these problems. What firmware are you running? I´m on LF5
BUALF1 (branded vodafone Europe) with LF5 modem.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
We on the same modem version, So I not have a clue why you have these problems. Let´s wait and see if anybody else have problems or even better have a solution
Well, got DDLF3 modem today. Problem appears to be fixed

Hi guys,
I've been tethering my phone to a windows laptop via usb for about a month now with no problems. However, because of the lack of support for usb tethering on the mac, I'm forced to use wifi tethering with my mac.
The issue is that wifi tethering keeps disabling its self every so often (maybe 20 mins)
I have the international s3 with the latest available ota update.
Any suggestions?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I've noticed similar behavior myself. Seems to turn itself off when nothing is connected on mine. Haven't used it enough to know the details of the behaviour though.
Mind you I'm using a firmware from six weeks ago, so a lot could have been fixed in the builds/updates since. I figure it has been fixed because I've not seen any other reports of the bug.

Go to portable hotspot settings, hit the menu button then timeout settings, hit never timeout (or a time)

Brilliant. I hoped it might be something like that. Let's hope that solves it, thanks!

LOL. I never though of a menu there too. I feel pretty ashamed of myself right now. But, I was spot on on the timeout though
Thanks!

Yup, this was indeed the issue. Timeout removed and I managed to successfully sit there browsing for a few hours last night.

Just wondering if anyone can help with a 3G issue I appear to be having.
I generally get great mobile internet signal, but today it keeps dropping out. If I select GSM only or WCDMA only then I can maintain fast mobile internet speeds, but if I select GSM/WCDMA (Auto) then my signal drops to 2G.
Signal in the area is fine for everyone else on the same network.
Has anyone else experienced this or know how to resolve it?
Thanks in advance

Make sure its not your network problem first

Checked, and it's not a network issue

Funny thing is, i have the same problem.
I got great mobile signal on stock ICS, full bars. Until i flash another ROM, ARHD 13 to be exact.
Sent from my GT-I9300
Try updating to JB if it's a software issue that should sort it.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I think i found the solution.
I'm on ARHD13, with Phenomenon kernel. I flashed other modem, for my region, that is LH1. That's when i got terrible mobile signal.
Then i went back to Phenomenon thread, and found out that he's using XXDLIB ramdisk. So, i flashed XXDLIB, just to test it out.
And it worked! My signal bar is full again.

Sent from my GT-I9205 using xda app-developers app
Many seem to experience this signal issue, me too. I have the i9205 international version. Tele2 network in Sweden/Sthlm. Its not always bad, but signal is significantly lower than the note 1 and note 2 I had before, most of the time. Still data and phone calls work good. Not too often I lose signal completely though, but more often than other models in same area.

I am losing signal completely with no texts or calls coming through........ it must be the phone, never had a problem with original note
