Hi all,
I'm having trouble with my x10 mini pro using the router at home, a Dlink dsl-2740b. The wifi from the router keeps crashing after a few minutes of use. Sometimes it's only the wifi but sometimes it complete crashes and when looking at the leds it's like it ended in an endless loop pinging to all other devices including the wireless ones.
The weird thing is that i'm not having any trouble with other routers like my sitecom 300N wl-366, but only with the Dlink dsl-2740b.
The things I've allreadt tried:
Change radio to G only
Change security settings to nothing(also wep, wpa1, wpa2)
Updated the firmware of the router
I'm out of ideas what to problem could be.. If anyone could point me in the right direction for solving this problem cause it's pretty enoying.
Thanks in advance,
YcKe
I can't help on your issue but If I may ask, how do you change WIFI to only operate on G
upgrade your routers firmware. and you will be fine.
look at this thread, maybe you can solve your problem..

No solution yet on the other forum, but I can confirm that this also affects my router DIR-655.
Its not immediate, sometimes 30 mins, 1 hour, 2 hour. So for 1 day, I turn off the Wifi and"forget the network" on Android, no hang.
Then To confirm again, I turn it on, within 1 hour, it crash again.
So Yeah, my trouter is aging (2 years) and Draft n only. So maybe thats why. Buying a new router seems the only option .

Thanks for the replies,
I updates my router to the latest firmware, but the problem is still there.
After digging around in the logfiles i saw that there were alot of errors made in through the wirless network...
Probably caused by my Cellphone...
Is there and mechanism in the router like QOS that could make it quit working?

I notice every time I connect my SGS2 to my wifi, after awhile, it slows down my internet of other devices to the point where loading webpage take 5 seconds or more. So if I connect my phone to the wifi, in about 20ish minutes my computer's internet speed will start to lag. The webpage load slower, and my online games have 2-4s of delay.
I have a qwest router (Actiontec PK 5000)
Whatever the problem is I really doubt it's phone related. How old is the router?
One time at football camp, I put my shoulder pads in my arse.
Another vote for router issues.
Or if you have modem and separate router, possible the modem is bad. If you can rule out the router I would call your ISP for a new modem. I doubt the phone could clog enough bandwidth to explain your issue.
Edit:
I didn't see you show your router. I have the same exact router/modem. Did you get the firmware update? I think you have to do it manually. I used to have lots of issues where the router would throttle my connection, saying to check for viruses, too many connections. And I would have to unplug and reboot daily. (On the old firmware you can verify this under the modem utilization screen)
My current firmware version is: qap002-3.60.3.0.9.9-pk5000
After I updated the firmware I never have issues. If I choose to, I can browse on my phone, watch Netflix (directly on Vizio TV), my wife browse on the TouchPad, all on a 1.5Mbps connection without issue.

Hello there, I'm on the same firmware as you, i changed my raido channel from "auto" to "8" (I think it could be any number) It seems to fix it, but I dont know yet, its only been a few hours.
Same problem !!

But when i connect wi fi my telephone SGS2 on the second test i have 5042 ping and 0.42 MB/s download.
When i measure it for the third time, on the moment when there is ongoing pin calc. when i disconnect my phone from wifi , that instant moment my ping and downloads speed is ok.

ANYONE PLS HELP !!
That sounds like your router man...
Does this happen when you connect any other device to your wifi?

if i remember correctly, the more devices that you have connected to wifi at one time, the slower your connection is. All the devices are using data/bandwidth at the same time which means the individual task of each device has to wait for others as well. at least, thats what i've always gone by.
EDIT: i just have no idea why the change in speeds would be so drastic :/
This thread is from January. Put the shovels away. Also, it's not relative to this phone. It's relative to what kind of internet setup you have at your residence.

Not jet. I have updated the latest firmware and the same thing happens. I will try it on different routers the same testspeed and i will see it. My friend also have the same router like me and have same problem .
We will figure it eventually and i will write it down to you. If you solve it please share.
Thx !
Hi all, long time browser first time poster!
I have come across an issue with my TFP that every now and then, even when in the exact same spot where the wifi has worked before, it stops working.
My issue isn't range or anything like that.
When I go to my wifi settings, my Prime can see my network and many others around me, shows my signal strength as 'good' but when I tap my network and hit connect, it does nothing! The dialog box disappears and I am still not connected to my network, but it is still there in the list and still shows signal strength as good!
Has anyone come across this before/know a possible reason?!?
No idea. Try forgetting and re-connecting?

I am experiencing the same thing. Seems to be happening on both AP's and tethering from my phone.
Experienced as well
I also have this problem occasionally. I have always been able to solve it by either: forgetting wifi source and rescanning; or 2) rebooting.
I agree that it is irritating.
This happens to me nearly every time I try to make a new connection.
The one place that it happens less frequently is at work, which is strange, because the wifi here is very spotty. Maybe because the signal comes/goes so often the software notices it more? *shrug*
I as well do have this issue. To resolve my issue, I have been turning the wifi on and then off again. Sucks to waste 30 seconds waiting for it reconnect but it works. Seems to happen after the tablet has been sitting awhile
+1 on that issue, seen it many times on several primes.
How does it feel to beta test a product that was not ready for release?
What update are you on? I haven't had this happen since the initial upgrade to ICS.

Tried his, seems to work sometimes but more often doesn't!
Same version here. I have seen the forget/reconnect method fail also.
I had this problem when I had it set to turn off the wifi when it was sleeping. Once I unchecked that option, it never appeared again. Always had to reboot to get it on wifi when it happened.
Crazy. Obviously I could go into detail on some configuration changes for your routers or whatever, but I'm sure you've browsed the forum enough to see them all. And if not, even if you can change your own router settings it does no good abroad.
Tried several different networks with the problem occurring across the board?
Yesterday evening the problem attacked with a vengence, Could not connect to my network, tried several times turning wifi off and on, forgetting and reconnecting to network and several reboots, nothing would let me connect to my network, gave up and went to sleep!

I only found that option last night! My wifi has always been set to always on, but just before going to bed i changed this option to off when asleep, haven't been back to my prime to check it out yet.

Unfortunately I don't really have the opportunity to try different networks for long enough to see if this is a problem!
I have tried a few settings changes on my router, last thing left to try is static IP{ address, that is this evenings job when I can round up all my devices and grab their mac addresses!
So heres a real annoying problem, so much to the point im starting to become depressed :/
Nothing major change that i know of, my phone worked great until like a week ago. The problem is with the wifi.
It connects and all, bit it acts as if its just slow connection, but its not because on my computer / laptop its fine. for example, youtube wont load a video, i cant download a single thing from the play store, even facebook is acting wierd. But as i said its connected to the wifi.
Now for the last weekend i went up to my brothers, and the wifi on my phone worked flawless. This is what confuses me. :/
Original s3, no root or nothing, jellybean ofc.
Any ideas anyone? :/

I got a router, and all devices connect to that, what i mean was the problem i dont think it can be with the internet itself because this issue dont occur on any other devices. if that makes sense.. :S
Your S3 has definitely got a unique IP address? You haven't set it static have you?

Yep, Its set to DHCP. So i guess, because the other option is static.
Yep. Good to rule out.

Every. Single. Day. I leave my house and the wifi won't reconnect at school, or home. I restart my phone and it connects just fine. When I'm at school it won't connect until I restart, and then it connects there fine as well. It would be interesting to see what variables between locations has cause/effect on the connection. I'll do some analysis when I have time, see if there is a time variable associated, like if it happens right away or takes time for the problem to occur. I have a feeling it's related to the cheap parts that Sony used, not sure what wifi chip is installed.
yeah I haven't had this issue yet either. Have an apple airport router. I have only had the phone a week but no problems.
OK it just now happened, (wifi won't connect) and I realized it was just connected when I was inside a building at school without cell reception. I put the phone into airplane mode, then turned on wifi, and sure enough the wifi connected. I'm thinking interference or lack of power is preventing wifi when a medium strength LTE signal is connected. I'll keep testing scenarios that fit this theory.
Just a quick update. It seems putting the phone in airplane mode, then manually turning on wifi only, the wifi connects immediately. Turn airplane mode off, wifi stays connected. No need to restart. Wifi drops on me several times a day and this is my fix. This fix did not work 1 time out of the past 20, and I had to restart.
Mine has been doing the same thing.... ugh Sony can't get their crap right no matter what they do. Dear God.
Anyone else having issues with auto brightness not working properly as well?

No problem here on the normal xa mine is a F3111 LTE model WiFi works and connects great on all Firmwares. Have you tried the software repair option via Xperia companion? If it's still the same after this, you need to take a log using the built in logging application and send the logs via Sony support forum it gives you instructions on how to do it in settings think one of the guys names is Richard, about phone, diagnostics, advanced logging they've actually been pretty good regarding any bugs and fix them once they have some logs to work from.

Thanks for the reply and suggestion. Unfortunately, the repair option didn't solve the issue. After Googling it, it appears many users with the 3213 model are having the same issues. Ugh.
I did not know about the "diagnostics" feature. I enabled it and then it auto uploaded and then turned off. So does support email you or Richard gentleman contact me via the phone somehow to give feedback?
Thanks!

As far as I know it's all done through a pm(message) through the Sony support forum. Then they pass it on to the software peep's and then wait for the fix it may take more than one person to provide the logs before they sanction the update unless they find a bigger problem.

Here's a funny thing, as long as I am not connected to Bluetooth, WiFi works flawlessly, weird.....
I'm just going to assume we have no fix for this yet? the whole resetting my phone is getting really tiring. blah I wish Sony would fix this or at least acknowledge it
I have the same problem with my XA. I've only had the phone a few days and I'm always having to switch it off and back on. SOOOOO annoying. The guy that sold it me said I could just return it. I'm not buying Sony ever again!!!!!
Been having to use my 4g at home alot of the time, which is eating up my data something rotten. It shows the WiFi is on and has full signal, but it's often so slow or even worse dead! I've honestly had 2g on a crap old phone work faster than WiFi at times. I have just "forgotten" all saved WiFi networks and signed into my home WiFi from scratch and put the password in again. Seems to have done the trick, but I'm not holding my breath that it's gonna last.
I'm curious, it might be insignificant, but just wondering what WiFi service providers all of us with problems have? I have BT infinity. For a while I thought that maybe it was just BT being rubbish. But my partner has a Samsung galaxy s8+ and she doesn't seem to have any issues. I've used the WiFi on my linx tablet, no issues. The Xbox one doesn't really lag either.
So it's either that this phone does not like BT or its just my phone being pants!!! Doing my head in, I have to keep getting my partner to send me extra data.
It's seriously getting on my nerves now

This is my first Sony Android phone, and I'm not touching one ever again.. What's worse for me is that mine is still on Sept 2016 update and my carrier locked the bootloader so I couldn't update it myself, as my network don't even care if I have the latest security updates or not
