Hi All,
So with my old x10, I had this crap issue with my Netgear router in that it would refuse to connect more than once - I'd have to reset the router - apparently Netgear routers don't like android phones...
Anyway, now with my SGS2, the problem has gone, which is fantastic, except while I can always connect to the router, I cannot pair with Kies or AllShare - basically the connection just times out...
Has anyone else had this problem, and/or found a solution?

I have a Netgear and have no issues.. however what i can suggest is to try and connect with the phone plugged in.. i had issues with my laptop with my Netgear .. it kept on dropping connection when the mains was unplugged...
I know a laptop and an Android phone are slightly different but hey it's worth a try yes/no?
Thanks for your feedback, but no, that's not the problem - it connects to WiFi fine, but it seems like it can't communicate through the router - like there's a firewall setup or something...

Hi,
Have you been able to solve this issue. Appreciate your help if you have... I seem to have the same issue.
No, no solution yet... If I reboot the router, then I can connect via allshare or kies, but then once the connection is lost I can't reconnect, except without reboot.

I am trying to share my Galaxy Nexus' internet connection via bluetooth with my tf201.
I can get them paired, and connected, and the internet works (although a little slow)but after about 30 seconds the internet stops working. If I make the tf201 reconnect to the GNex it immediately works again for another 30 seconds.
How can stop the connection from turning off?
I don't know how to fix that specific problem; my bluetooth tethering has worked quite reliably for me.
You may want to take a look at the FoxFi app for your phone. It offers both wifi and bluetooth tethering without rooting. That may help you get a better connection.
not helpful, i know, but my Atrix will not do internet via bluetooth to my prime, and My Atrix 2 does amazingly well. idunno.
Again, not helpful, but I've no problem tethering my Prime to my Galaxy Note via Bluetooth. My Note is running a leaked ICS build too, so I was quite surprised that it works so flawlessly.
Regards,
Dave

If you're running JellyBean and you DON'T have a problem with wifi disconnecting when the phone goes into sleep mode could you please post the model of your wifi router here?
Thanks

No issue for me with my old Netgear DG834Gv5
I have used the following routers and have never had issues with wifi sleeping:
Virgin Superhub 2 (Software version R36)
The Cloud (free wifi in cafe/pubs etc. UK) in numerous pubs and coffee shops.

I also use a D-Link one at a friends house but I don't know the model number, will update when I can get the details.
Belkin PlayMax N600 here also and works great.

Same one but no stock phone.
I've tried using my LG G2 and my friends Galaxy S5 but when the Nexus 9 connects it has an exclamation mark next to the WiFi and there's no internet access... Anyone else having this problem?
I occasionally lose connection to my wifi network, maybe once or twice a day. I seldom had that problem with other tablets.

I tethered the update on mine in Best Buy parking lot with S3.
So WiFi is working guys, just WiFi hotspotting is not
Hi,
I bought the tab last friday. While playing around I noticed that Wifi does an
endless reconnect-loop when using 5 GHz Wifi. 2 GHz works fine..
Could anybody please try? Turn off your router's 2 GHz and use 5 only.
Watch the Wifi nenu in your tab.
Thanks

My tablet is connected to 5 gigahertz exclusively and has never dropped the connection. You may want to take a look at your router's wifi settings.
I have a brand new Galaxy Tab S3 SM-T820 Wifi version, and I have two wireless routers in my home. One is a RavPower ND007, the other a DLink DIR-813. Both are dual band routers. On both, I have the 2.4 GHz network and 5 GHz networks names differently. Every other device in my home - including a number of Samsung devices - connects to all four networks with no problem.
However, my Galaxy Tab S3 does not. When connecting to the Rav, it shows "Connected, No Internet", and can't communicate at all. It won't even connect to the DIR-813 at all.
It connects flawlessly to the 2.4GHz networks on both routers.
Both of the routers, and the Tab, all have the latest available firmwares/updates.
So it's definitely the Tab S3, and definitely a 5GHz problem.
Not sure how to report this to Samsung, but I'm going to try...
defenitley YES, 5G problem...

Last Sunday I forgot to turn off Wifi 5G on my router and used my Tab S3.... Reconnect each 2 seconds... Super Quality, Thanks a lot to Samsung..
And just to clarify - 5G works with the same router and my Phone S8 perfectly, so it is NOT a rouoter issue...
I've been using 5G exclusively as our SSID is 5G specific and never had an issue with WiFi. Solid connection 100% of the time. Netgear Nighthawk X8 here.

Will try to install the latest update this weekend, without any modifications. If 5G still does not work, I will send the Tab to samsungs repair-center, as it still will be covered by warranty.
Either it is a problem with modem-driver or Hardware..
But nevertheless, this is the very first device showing up this problem with 5G.
If Samsung is not capable to solve, this will be my last product purchased from this brand...
I did send my Tab to Samsung repair center in Germany. Will receive it today, but I already know that they did not find any problem, all fine..
Well - but they did not give me a detailed test-report yet... So I dont know what and how they tested..
Will return the Tab to my local dealer for replacement..
I'd like to test with a different SM-T825...
Reading this I haven't seen that you've tried updating your router's firmware. If you haven't try that too. I'm not sure if when you say "install latest update" if that's the router or the tab.

Just by chance I found out, that 5G works if no SIM inserted. And IF SIM is inserted, it MUST be active. In flightmode and then activate WIFI does NOT work..
This is very suspicious... I hope that SOON we will find a working lineage for the galaxy tab S3...
Galaxy Tab S3 SM-T820 Wifi version and dual band 5ghz
Hmm, I just updated my modem as per better speeds from Comcast, but I also need a new router that would take advantage of the bandwidth and the 802.11ac dual band standard so that I can get to the 5ghz band.
I own a Galaxy Tab S3 SM-T820 WiFi and before I get a new router, I want to know if the WiFi adapter in the Tablet would pick up on the 5ghz band with a new router. Is there any type of updates or drivers or am I okay?
Thank you,
Jon
I'm on 5Ghz all the time. No issues.
Great news !!
I asked the question after I learned about the variety with routers and especially since I found out that my laptop's WiFi adapter only supports b,n,g and that I would need to buy a USB WiFI adapter for my laptop or somehow change the adapter chip inside my laptop to take advantage of the 802.11ac dual protocol.
Thank you, Jon
I have the t825 version, unfortunately I have problems with the 5 Ghz connection.
I hope Samsung releases an update to fix the connection problem and to improve the camera
