Hello everybody. So i recently got my Galaxy S2 , about 2 weeks ago to be exact. And i have a problem with Wi-Fi. It turns on , connects and everything is nice. But then sometimes , the connection itself dissapears and nothing loads ( apps , images , etc..). I thought its just something with my router , but I also tried using my Galaxy player 5.0 and Huawei U8800 Pro and everything is well ! Everything loads instantly , where as with my S2 I often ( very often , like every minute ) get a 30 second connection loss and nothing loads. Wi-Fi works , the connection not always.
So is it a hardware issue? Or just something with the settings?
check your router and check to see if registers the s2, you may have to create a static ip address for it, if it is not registering properly.

Hi everyone!
I saw this problem on every device I tried, it seems that with certain wifi networks an android device wouldnt allow to watch flash movie for more than 3 minutes, it just hangs, shows its buffering but doesn't. (need to refresh the page and get another 3 minutes...)
When I switch to some other wifi, it randomally occurs with some and with the others it never occurs.
I want to ask anybody who knows about it, what can cause this and how do I fix this? (this happens only with android, if I use my laptop it doesn't freeze regardless of which wifi I use)

I've probably encountered that, but I don't really remember it.. so, sorry but I can't help. Good luck finding a solution though.
Hi,
i have a strange problem regarding wlan on the s3. No matter what browser i use, or what rom i'm on(i have tried all up to the current xxblfb): When i go to xda (main or forums) 9/10 times the browser starts loading, then just stops and and leaves me on the page i was before (or on blank if i just started the browser). I have waited up to 30 seconds to see if it is just slow, but it didnt help. I have to enter the adress again/hit reload a few times until it works, and then it loads normally fast. This only happens with the S3 (other devices on same router work fine), and only on xda (although it happens very rarely on random sites). Anyone got the same problem or knows a possible solution?
P.S: Tried a full factory reset with deleting all caches....no improvement

Hello guys how are you? Although I have found similar threads about it, I couldnt find a solution to my problem. I got a Star N8000 with android 4.1.1 1 month and a half ago and I think its a great phone... anyways the point is that when Im connected on wifi everything is perfect, notifications arent delayed at all but when I use data mobile its different =/ when the screen turns off for 5 mins or something like that, notifications are quite delayed... sometimes I have to turn on the screen and wait like 20 secs after I open whatsapp and all messages start to come. I dont know why I cannot connect to 3G service, maybe its because Movistar doesnt have it (Im from venezuela) so I use EDGE and I figured out about something: when I open whatsapp (after inactivity) it starts to try to connect I think because in the signal icon appears two white signs like an arrow or something like that. I dont know if it the software but it doesnt happen on wifi:.. so I dont have any idea about it. Im not root user (tried to be but didnt work) and I dont have any task killer... even I reseted the phone but didnt work either so I dont have any idea how to fix that
nobody?
Hi all, the galaxy s2 I am using has always had problems with its wifi. I inherited it from my mum when she upgraded to the galaxy s4. The wifi didn't work when i got it, but did after a factory reset. The problem has come up a few times since then and has always been fixed with a factory reset.
So the problem- I can connect to the wifi, the phone says connected and has the wifi icon in the notifications bar. it says it has 3-4 bars, but the send/recieve arrows don't light up. The phone functions like it isn't connected to the wifi, even though it is. After every reset attempt the wifi comes back for about 5 minutes and then the problem starts again.
Is there any solution to this?
I have several android-devices with MiXPlorer installed. On the smartphone (Wifi and Phone net) I have no problem.
On the others (Samsung Tab S2 and Samsung Google Nexus 10) all Tabs(only WiFi), MiPlorer runs very well.
Only sometimes MiXPlorer gives a short error-message, if I will call a FTP-Site(Its always the same site).
Reseting WLAN brings no Change, but after booting the tabs, all runs well again. But some hours later ......
What can I do, beside booting ?
