[Q]Wifi problem - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I got a china phone Jiayu G3 everything is fine beside wifi
I got around 50-100 kB/s speed, if im close to the router i can get full speed, but even on others rooms i got good signal strentg, the phone shows same signal strenght as others devices, but get this low speed.
Another problem is when im conected with the phone and using it the who net colapse, it`s like if the max bandwidth is determinated by the smartphone, about the channel whenever i use a different channel from 11 the connection is very unstable i lose it every 2 mins, the problem is there are others nets on channel 11 so i have to avoid it.
What do you think i have some problem with the smarthphone wifi or it could be some router incompatibility/configuration?

up

up, there is any chance that the phone is fine and it`s my router problem, some kind of incompatibility with the smartphone wifi chip?
Another thng i cant understand if the signal is strong why i get so low speed?

[Q] Weak Wi-Fi?

Has anyone else had issues with the strength of the wi-fi signal on this phone? When I'm in certain areas of my house, I will have severe lag with browsing, with the People hub, etc. Music and video will stream poorly, with heavy buffering. Basically, I get all the signs of low signal. The problem is, I've never had a problem with other phones I've used, including an HD7, Dell Venue Pro, Nexus S, Nokia N8, etc.
I tested the WiFi signal in these areas, and I get back a consistent signal between 70dbm - 80dbm, so I have a moderate amount of signal to work with. Has anyone else noticed poor WiFi coverage with this phone? Should I get it exchanged?
Same. Something is definitely fishy with the wi-fi on this device. It seems to come and go, and manifests as poor or even no wi-fi capability even when the phone says it is connected to a strong wi-fi signal.
I frequently cannot get a solid Tango video call going between 2 Radars on my home wi-fi network. Pretty frustrating seeing "network problems" and getting a choppy experience when both phones are on wi-fi with full signal strength.
My WiFi is solid with my N router
Today is my first day with the radar and I'm noticing WiFi issues. I think though some of it is related to Zune WiFi sync connecting...

For the people connected to 802.11n routers, are your routers in pure N mode?
The Radar I have can connect to my 802.11g router no problem but can't even find my 802.11n. I'm thinking it doesn't have N connectivity...
Just asking.
Mine is BGN

I found out my particular problem is the Windows Phones only work on the 2.4ghz (currently used on my 802.11g router) band and not the 5ghz (my 802.11n router) band.
Now I know.
To the OP, this 2.4ghz band is usually crowded so maybe where you are going in your house, your phone is meeting with interference (land line wireless phone, neighbors wi-fi, etc...).

I don't think it's an interference issue, as every other device I own has no such issues, including 3 other Windows Phones (Dell Venue Pro, HD7 Omnia 7). And despite already using the channel with the least interference, I've tried switching that around as well. To me, there is clearly something not performing correctly in regards to the WiFi radio on this device.

Wifi connectivity issues

I constantly drop wifi in my house. Is this just my phone or is it an issue? Tried everything and won't stay connected. Network just disappears and then connects 10-15 second later.
I have some issues also. Just bad firmware on LG side
I'd check your wifi modem, I use my LG V10 on numerous different modems, and have no problems with it. It connects to my home, alone with a few places I go to, and even when tje signal is extremely weak. So I'm not seeing the same thing
Also have issues on Wi-Fi
2.4 seems to hold connection longer than 5ghz. Luckily I have unlimited data. I have almost never used WiFi on this device due to this. The problem is both on my Asus RT router and my brother's Netgear Nighthawk router. Both with latest firmware. I'd like to have the option of a stable WiFi connection though.

I've read a few posts that suggest being sure the MAC address of your phone is registered with your router. I've come from 2 galaxies and I do feel the LG is a little more sensitive to a low or fluctuating signal. I "feel" it, but everytime I actually compare, it doesn't seem to be the case
Thanks for the advice

Tried the registering the Mac on both bands. Tried several device resets. Disconnected all other attached devices from the router. Had much hope for this. But no bueno. Still dropped connection after less the three minutes. Disabled 4G and the other nanny settings for WiFi on the V10. Just hoping for the much needed firmware update (s) for this sweet phone.
Again, thank you for the advice and your time.

P9000 poor wifi reception

Hi,
Ive just got my P9000 Lite and the wifi reception is terrible compared to my HTC One M7, even when Im sat 3m away in the same room as the router I dont get 100% reception, its the same on both of my routers
Ive installed wifi analyser app on both phones and these are the results
................................P9000..................................HTC One
Upstairs...........-50 to -60dBm............-25 to -35 dBm
Down.................-70 to -80dBm.............-50 to -60 dBm
Build: 20160318
It is not rooted, I read that since the previous update it cant be rooted anyway
I have found an update on the Elephone forum but I have to flash it, if I go to wireless update it says I am upto date.
Is anyone else experiencing poor wifi reception?

Actually i have good wifi signal, not the best indeed, but I would rate it 4/5 and it is still rootable ofc, my is rooted and I am on latest update
That's normal, just flash it, I flashed it also. I think the new one supports OTA, I didn't received OTA also out of the box
Yeah on the full version the wifi is terrible too. That turbo download wifi and network combo does nothing either. I've gone back to my huawei. As the 4g signal is a joke too. So disappointed in this phone. Not worth the hassle sending it back to China.
I guess it heavily depends from which charge your phone is and who is your network operator. I have the p9000 and none of this problems
My 4G isnt great either, often drops down to 3G where before my HTC One had 4G and even then on 3G often briefly loses the signal.
They must have put the antennas in a really stupid position inside the phone

wifi calling issues

So I am on t-mobile, and I also have one of the routers provided to me by t-mobile (I believe it's an Asus) , and I have noticed recently that my wifi calling has been sucking big time. It cuts in and out and says I need to connect to a wifi network, when I am connected. It's like it doesn't notice that there is a wifi connection. Anyone have suggestions as to what might help?
What is your isp bandwidth (down/up)?

100 down 20 up
WiFi calling on Android is hit and miss. I wish it was as stable as Blackberry UMA calling.
I tried the old turn it on and off again on the modem and router and it seems to have helped quite a bit.
Unfortunately, I have this issue for a quite while. Funny thing wifi calling works smoothly on pixel or essential phone!
How old is the router?
The router's WiFi radio maybe showing its age by being intermittent with its throughput's strength and/or signal's strength.
Try with newer router or access point. If there is a coffee shop with very good throughput strength (this is most important) you can do a test with that hotspot.

Poco X3 - problem with signal strength

Hello all,
I started to have some problems with signal strength.
It's not ROM-related (currently the newest CrDroid).
If I cut my WiFi and set the phone to prefer LTE signal sometimes I'm not able to use data. It's constantly switching between LTE / LTE+.
Sometimes it will connect and it's fine but most of the time it isn't.
It only happens in places when the signal is poor.
If I set the phone to prefer 3G it works perfectly normal.
My gf got the same phone and didn't experience that issue.
I believe that for some time after I received this phone it worked normally.
Maybe it's firmware related issue?
I heard about an issue with the poor signal on this phone...
Thank You in the advance for your answers.
