Problem with android devices and wifi - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys
I have very strange problem with my wifi at home.
Problem is web pages wont load sometimes, sometimes they load few minutes, and sometimes they load instantly.
Same goes for apps like youtube, ebay, playstore.
For example, i google something in web browser, the first search works like a charm, or the second, but the new one then just keep loading forever or wont load at all.
I tryed all android web browsers, stocks, chrome, opera, mozilla, etc, and its all the same, neither works.
The problem exsist on android devices, so far on my note 3, htc m8, samsung s2, and tablet leonovo.
Got 2 wifi networks at home, and on both the same problem.
Tho the wifi works fine on my 3 laptops, no problems at all there.
I have no problem with my devices on other wifi networks, or on 3g,4g network, so it must be something about my home wifi and android devices, since my laptops works with no problem.

bump
any hint or tip would be nice, ty

weird!
If there wasn't any Internet connection, laptops too shouldn't run.
Do anybody else know the password, who can block u?

Nope, noone knows the passwords.
Two routers , and both have problems with only android devices.
But if it were problem with routers, then i should have problems with my laptops too, but thats not the case.

Wifi only works once

Ive been putting up with this problem for ages, but thought I would try to get to the bottom of it.
I set up Wifi in the normal manner on the Athena, and enter the code. All is set up fine and wifi connects to my network. However if I start internet explorer for instance it will load the home page, Google in my case and it loads it fine. then when I try to load ANY OTHER page, it just says page not found. Its not just a google thing, or an I/E thing. my face book App will only load once, HTC home/weather will only load once. it will only connect to messaging once. All the other laptops, my HTC universal, all work fine. I even tried other roms, but always the same problem. I have T-mobile unlimited wap but its nice to have fast wifi to.
Has any of you clever sparks got an idea what it can be?
Regards
Jay

[q] android wifi problems

both my android phones (htc one, nexus 5) are very slow on my wifi. Play store images wont load and my facebook newsfeed doesnt upadte. Other apps like chrome however work. How can i fix this so that all the apps work. I have already cleared cache and done a factory reset of both the phone and router. Thanks for you help.
Might Be Stock Software
Honestly there are a lot of variables in the ROM that can cause differences in network performance. It would be useful to know what carrier you're on for the one and also a comparison in speed to something non android on the wifi.
I don't know if the good post but I've got WIFI problem on tablet Polaroid MID 9748 Android 4.2.2 kernel 3.0.36, CPU RK3188
Tell me if I've been moderated.
For example, when I switch from an application to the other as my browser to google play, I've to switch my tablet in plane mode in and out for refreshing the WIFI connection.
I don't know where this problem is coming from because I'dont have any problem for watching streaming also the wifi card should work fine.
Could be MTU problem? How to check?
Thank for advise

[Q] Wi-Fi problems

I am having trouble with authoricating Wi-Fi. When i connect to WiFi a website should pop up to allow me to login. However this is not happening. I had a Samsung note 2 and i had no problems at all. Is there some setting i need to use?
Not sure what you mean popup, I simply open the web browser and try to open any website, it will redirect to login page if it reqires login or accept something.
Ya thats the problem its not redirecting the web page. I am using chrome. I have tried setting chrome as the default browser but no luck with the web page being redirected
When that happens to me (e.g. at Starbucks, at McDonalds, any public place with WiFi, etc) .. I usually wait around for a little while and like every 20 seconds or so I try to navigate to google.ca... If done correctly the WiFi access page should appear. If it doesn`t work, try going to the WiFi settings and forget the network and reconnect to it. Once you connect to it wait like 20 seconds sometimes the pop up will happen right in the settings.
Thanks i'll give that a try. I know there's a bit of a problem with chrome and the default browser. Thanks for the help I'll let ya know

On my home network the Mate 2 does NOT do well on N. It runs fine on G. Perhaps that is part of the problem.
Very slow Wi-Fi
I am using my HAM2 without a SIM card, on wi-fi. It is way too slow and gets disconnected. Is this coz of no sim or is the phone by itself having an issue?. My other devices ( laptop, Nexus5, iphone6) are having a good signal strength and is pretty fast
Any advise to increase the wi-fi on this phone will be really helpful.

No public wifi connection

So guys,
I don't know if everyone knows "fon", but it is a global wifi conection.
It has a public wifi network and we have to login to it by browser.
The problem is that on the Oneplus X the login screen doesn't even appear. If i try automatic login by the app i lose the wifi connection.
Anyone has the same problem?
Any thoughts?
Cheers
I've tried wifi connections via Starbucks and Transit (MTA Wifi) as well as my school wifi and they all require opening a browser to login, They worked fine for me. But I can't seem to detect my Gym's wifi, idk if it's my phone thats not detecting it or that the wifi isn't even there since I didn't have a buddy to confirm whether or not it was available. But the other scenarios worked fine.

nope, dont have xposed installed.
I have a similar issue.
My previous device was a Nexus 4, and I used to get a notification that prompted for a login when ever it connected to public wi-fi (was the wi-fi icon with an exclamation mark next to it). Didn't need to open a browser.
No it may be that was a stock Android feature, but it worked really well.
On my OPx I have to open a browser and type a url before it will redirect to me to any wi-fi login page. It doesn't work if I refresh an existing browser page - I just get a message saying it can't connect. During all of this however, the wi-fi icon shows the 'connected' state. It's the one thing that really annoys me about this device, but very few people seem to mention it.
Yes. I think it's strange. Maybe we are the only one that use public Wi-Fi?
I've got same problem. Very annoying. Considering that free hotspot in our town has such login (actually just form with single button to connect), SSID same all over town and it automatically connect as soon it see such network and losing sync/connection to all background applications like messengers.
I'm currently battling with OnePlus Support about this issue, they somehow not fully understand issue :crying:
Well, maybe they don't have hot-spots in China or something... But we don't see so many people saying that they have this problem.
That's why oneplus don't care about it also
Hi, i have the same problem with autentication web page. The phone connect to network but the autentication page don't work.
Yes that is the problem i was talking about!
But i don't care now, thanks to MasterAwesome.
Goodbye oxygen for ever!

Weird WiFi Problem Not opening Pages

Hey guys. So my Mate 20 Pro has the WEIRDEST issues. When connected to wifi a few web pages etc are not opening. Instagram can't refresh feed etc. But if I use my Mobile Connection or use a Proxy when connected to the wifi everything works. The same wifi connection on the pc works flawlessly. Opens every single page immediately including the ones not opening on the phone, and even plays games effortlessly.
What do you think is holding back this connection on my phone?
Sounds like you were using public WiFi and some tend to use a firewalls which block lots of different things, I was on the train the other day and they didn't allow forums
The wi-fi on my phone has been screwed since day one. It still 'works' for most things, like games and such, but web pages or links in a reddit app will mostly load (the progress bar will speed along and then grind to a halt) and then... Nothing. When I googled around, it seems like Huawei devices in general are known for this - a smattering of people have devices that are simply broken on wi-fi. Now, I haven't done extensive testing, so it may be the wi-fi devices in combination with the phone that are the problem. It isn't like I have tested this with all kinds of types of routers/bands. It certainly is strange, normally when a wi-fi signal is pooched you simply 404 or stop dead. The way my phone 'almost' loads sites makes it feel like an error checksum protocol spiraling out of control, choking the connection.
If I didn't have a lot of data with my plan, I would have attempted to return my phone.
