[Q] Few connectivity problems

Hello,
I got problems with my 3G connectivity. I've read this topic also:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239777
And manually selected my provider (Telfort).
But, my WiFi connection is also bad too. Sometimes it stops giving internet too. So I have to reconnect to the WiFi access point.
Beside that, When is coming 2.3.4 update to The Netherlands ?
Thanks.

No such problem for me with JB LJ5 stock or custom!!!
Might be your modem-router....
This happens to me too. It's fine for me at work, but when I'm at home the wifi fails to connect after some time. Are you using dd-wrt at home? I am and I'm wondering if that's the issue.

I find that having my wifi set to always on in advanced I get better wifi and slow drain, having it on wifi off while asleep makes your wifi keep disconnecting and reconnecting. Best way is to switch wifi off when you don't need it.
Also some battery saving apps I've found to stop wifi and need to keep reconnecting, this has to be changed in the settings
wi fi dropped

Hi, Mine is Galaxy Note 2 i317 with Jelly Bean 4.1.1. I did have similar issue. I took two smart phones to Target, one is ICS 4.0.3 and the Note 2 is 4.1.1.
The 4.0.3 never has any issues with wi fi connection. But the Note 2 keeps on dropping the connection. I ran an application wifi analyzer to check the available networks. It turns out that Target has so many routers that are using the same ssid, i.e. "Target Guest Wi-Fi". There are channel 1, 6, 11, etc, as well as many 5Gs. I did an alias for every available connection. Then I pick one of the stronger signal strength 5G and connected to it.
After that no connection was dropped.
The point is that you should try to connect to the strongest signal SSID so that the Note 2 won't keep on dropping the weak connection.
I have no idea why the ICS 4.0.3 can handle better than the 4.1.1 Jelly Bean as far as wifi is concerned.

Same problem!

I'm experiencing the same problem since updating to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 on my HTC ONE X. So it seems to be an Android issue, not specific to Samsung or HTC.
I connect to my home network over WIFI, everything works fine until after a little while my apps seem unable to connect to any data/internet. They just time out or come up with error messages about connection problems.
Sure enough, if I disconnect and reconnect to WIFI, everything starts working again... for a little while.
It's like the WIFI goes to sleep, but forgets to wake-up again.
And there is no indication on the phone, ie. it still shows as connected.

Mine shipped with JB already. Sometimes, when reboot, it doesn't connect to my WIFI network, unless i disable WIGI connection and re-enable it...

[Q] Wifi problems [RAY]

Hey guys,
I own an Xperia Ray and just recently upgraded to CM10 FXP201
I had no problem with the rom so far but the only things that bothers me allot is the wifi connection.
I tried both fly and LuPus kernels with the appropriate wifi modules, but the wifi doesn't respond after 2 minutes or especially
when I try to download apps bigger then 20MB. Sometimes i have to turn the wifi on and off until it gets connected but then
it just dies again.
What I want to ask is, is the wifi problem the same on all devices or is there a permanent solution to it ?
Thank you for your time,

aokp/CM10.1 wifi problems (solved)

Hi all been having problems with WiFi on AOKP/cm10.1 ROMs for the last few weeks when I try to connect I get authenticating IP loop then avoided poor connection even though my WiFi connection shows full bars the solution was to go into the router settings and change the connection to n only instead of auto b/g/n also weird as it sounds my wife has a s3 running the same ROMs and she never had the problem anyway hope this help someone
