Wifi problem. [solved] - HTC Droid DNA

I have been seeing this issue with my phone for 3 days. I will connect to my home wifi and it will have a strong signal in my room. But then randomly it will disconnect and then reconnect and it disrupts me if I'm using my wifi. It does this often. I'm going to go stream some music in another part of my house and see if it cuts out there or of it only does it in my room I'm not sure right now. But does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do so it stops doing this.

So I think I got this figured out. I recently changed the security on my router to WPA/PSK and this is when my dna started acting up. I temporarily removed the security key and now it's not doing it. I guess I will throw a WEP key on and see if it disconnects and reconnects.

Ok looks like I solved my own problem. I changed my security to WEP and it has stopped disconnecting. I guess the dna just doesn't get along with WPA/PSK or at least mine doesn't.

It seems to be router specific. I have 2 routers in my house. Both are wpa, one will drop out from time to time on my and the other one doesnt.

Well it's working now so I'm all set. I saw some posts on a verizon forum of people having the exact same problem with WPA. So yeah probably just my router.

[Q] WIFI issues?????

Hiya all,
Is anyone having the same issues on their ThunderHammer with WIFI not picking up any locations? I seem to not be able to get any hits on any networks, I am rooted running stock, I have ran the ROM by XXXVIRUS but maybe it could be in the WiFi sup. Checked the build.prop changed the interval to 30 ( 15 native) can't seem to get her going.... I'm not a NooB, and can use and and I know my way around some Droid ... Any ideals let me know, or its back to Verizon to replace, ( came from og to dx, and they both had no WiFi issues, this bolt can't see and may have to get contacts!!!!)
Bump.... To see if there are another with this issue????

Data and Wifi Keeps Shutting Off

So it'll keep shutting off. Mobile Network will shut off and wifi will as well. Whenever I try to turn it back on it says Turning on... and sits there. Then I have to reboot.
I think it might have something to do with my Airave... I dunno.
My wife had the issue. Sprint forced a replacement due to a defective unit.
I'm 100% sure yours is too

Had an issue staying connected to the network. Wasn't ever at proper reception strength.
They could tell. Immediately. I'm sure your the same.

Do you guys have Airaves? I've been talking to a Airave Tech Department and am being told it could be the Airave... and it being my ISP because QoS and "jitter" numbers suck. So I'm on with tech with my ISP. Annoying.

Portable hot spot disabling its self

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?

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.

3g icon showing while on WiFi

So this is probably a dumb question but I have nevr had it happen before. My DNA the last couple days intermittently has been showing the 3g icon even while I'm connected to WiFi. I'm not sure but is that a bad thing or not?

If you send or receive a MMS while on WiFi your data will come on for a second or 2

Thank you. I honestly wasn't aware of that. And I was sending a panorama photo I had just taken around that time. Good to know.

I have the same thing happening but it's on 4G and 3G sometimes, usually it doesn't show any data transmission but just seems to stay on doing nothing for several minutes. Mine does stay on until I shut off my mobile network and when I turn the mobile network back on it stays off. With no text messages or anything going through.

WiFi issues

Just got this phone and the WiFi connection seems to disconnect every time I'm using it. It recconects in seconds but is annoying because its constantly dropping the connection. Not a router or modem issue because my iPad and my sisters gs3 work just fine with the WiFi. Any solutions?

Router settings:
Authentication method: wpa2-personal
WPA encryption: AES
It has to do with your router. For some reason some routers with some settings do not play nice with the dna.

Any that work well that you know of?

I forgot to mention, It does not like an unsecured connection
is it doing this all the time or only at night cause HTC included smartsync which does this to data and wifi from like 8pm-6am. If so get https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jonny.smartsyncdisabler from the play store enable it and reboot and problem solved. If you think its your router what model you have because it probably isn't.
