Wifi Issues - UMi Z Questions & Answers

I noticed that after a while my wifi turns off and I cant seem to reconnect. In fact my wifi network doesn't even show in wifi settings anymore until after I reboot. I just updated to the 2017.2.13 rom and the problem still persists. Am I missing something?

After the update it does reconnect but only if i turn the wifi off and on again. Its so frustrating

That's what happens on the brilliant updates from UMIDIGI. Altough this sounds stupid and its the answer to everything for bencebacsy, try reflashing the ROM because there might not be a fix. You can try switching airplane mode on and then off and see what happens altough that's not a clear solution.

[Q] Wireless issue

I've searched the forums for a similar issue with no luck, if anyone knows of a thread with a matching problem please provide a link.
My problem is that whenever I connect to my home network via wifi, I'm able to connect/disconnect a maximum of 3 times before wifi stops working completely. On the forth try, the phone will detect the network, try to connect and instantly disconnect. The only way I've been able to get wifi working correctly again is by rebooting the router, which also restarts the '3 connection' cycle.
I'm using a Netgear DG834G v2 and currently running Wolfbreak's latest version of CM6.1.3 but I've had the same issue with every other rom, including the official SE firmware, which leads me to believe that it is a router issue and not the phone itself.
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
In your phone, go to WiFi settings and press options button, then select "advanced", in wifi suspension politics (or something like that) select NEVER, then download and install Blade Wifi Fix from the market (i don't know what exactly does but it will prevent WiFi disconnections and it really works), and you can try using (optional) this app to connect to WiFi, if the problem still persists i would rather think it's a router issue or something ._.
CescVicious, thanks for your help. I tried both of those apps but my wifi continues to disconnect. I'm leaning towards it being a router issue more than the phone and have posted the problem on the Netgear forums.
Thanks again.

Mozart not finding my (non-hidden) Wi-Fi network

My Mozart for some reason can no longer find my home wi-fi network. It was working just fine 10 minutes ago and now, all of a sudden I unlock it and theres no Wi-Fi connection. Checked in Settings but the network doesnt appear in the list anymore.
The network is fine as im using it on my laptop now to type this and on my iPad. I tried switching Wi-Fi on an off several times and also rebooted the device many times too. I also tried adding the network like it was hidden, but no avail...
Any ideas?
UPDATE (PROBLEM SOLVED)
Okay i got the problem fixed, it wasnt a Windows Phone problem, my router suddenly decided to change the channel it was broadcasting on, it was 6 before, bumped it to 11 and now the phone is able to connect again XD
Are you running Mango?
I had problems connecting to my Wi-Fi pre-Mango when the SSID was hidden. Mango, however seems to connect fine in this scenario.
Apologies... I just re-read your question. I seem to have mis-read the NON HIDDEN network.

Yeah im on official Mango, forced it through Zune... And im certain my network isnt hidden...
If you go to Settings -> Wi-Fi -> Advanced is the network shown as a 'Known network'? If so, remove it restart your phone and try again.

It was listed and yeah, i tried that too, didnt work.
I think i'll hard reset the phone to the original pre-NoDo ROM and see if i have the same problem, if I do then it might be a hardware issue? Good thing I still have my warranty...
[UPDATE]
I just reset the phone, lost all my data for nothing -.-
[UPDATE 2]
Restored the phone to 7008, same problem... I'll reset the modem in a few hours. I hope that's the problem because the phone has no problem finding and connecting to networks further away from me...
Have you tried enabling the SSID again in the router setup then connect on your handset and finally hiding it again through the router?

Problem with cm9 and wifi

Hi i went from stock ics on my ray to cm9 by followingnexact step by step guide provided by cm9. Used their kernel as well. Have never modded my phone before. Having a small problem with wifi though. After my phone has been asleep for a while, if i wake it up the wifi icon in status bar is no longer blue its a dark grey and i can no longer browse anything or use the internet. Ive tried rebooting. I did the whole wipe cache etc when installing cm9. In wifi settings in advanced ive also left the setting to "leave wifi on when sleep" checked. If i turn off and on the wifi connection the phone ofcourse is able to reconnect again the icon is blue and i can connect. It not jsut a one off thing its been happening since i isntalled the rom.
If i wakek from sleep a few minutes later i have no issue with wifi. Its only when its been sleep for a while do i have this issue.
Any solutions?
I have the exact same problem but for me it's even bigger, whenever i turn on wifi on my modem, i can connect to internet on my phone, but after awhile i lose my connection completely, on my phone and on my pc also, the only way to get it back is to reset my router and wait for like 5-10minutes...

If its also an issue with your. Pc then your issue might be also the router.
My other devices actually work fine in my case its oky this phone that has issues. Macbook iphone ipad nexus s no problems with those.
Same issue here. I can see available networks but unable to connect. There should be no problem with the wifi router as all my other devices work well and I have tried another router. Now I have to flash back to stock firmware.

Your issue seems more severe than mine. Mine actually connects and works, just that when it wakes from long sleep it wont work until i turn off and on wifi.
I get this problem too, but my problem even worse than yours. My wifi lose it's connection after a while, but the icon on status bar shows it's connected, running ping test, browse, even play store can't be accessed. I pinged the router and got unreachable.
And yeah, this problem occurs when I'm using all ICS based rom..
Anybody has any idea if this is a known problem, or if its just us few having thisissue?

I have same problem. I have SE xperia mini with CM9. WiFi worked fine until yesterday. Now phone can't connect to AP (full signal - try connect -> signal drops down), but sharing 3G internet over WiFi works fine. I cleared dalvik cache, but that didn't help.

[Q] Wifi connection is not working properly on S2

Hi,
I have a year old factory unlocked S2 which was working fine till this morning. All of a sudden, I see that even though the WiFi shows as connected, there is no internet connection. I restarted it quite a few times but to no avail. The software is up to date and I have not done anything fancy with it ever. No rooting, nothing...
Can anyone please help? My other devices are connecting to the same wifi and working fine...includes my windows laptop, mac, iphone and ipad...

I tried it, in fact removed all the known wi fi networks, then shut down phone then connected back to the wifi... even then, no internet... the small green arrow near the wifi symbol shows that data is being sent, but the orange arrow that signifies that data is being downloaded/received hardly lights up...
chrome does not open the page, foursquare does not connect, even the default accuweather app does not refresh... any idea?
Just a thought, is your Wifi router connected to the internet? Connectivity issues?
If you can afford it, try doing a factory reset. Also try connecting to some other router. If it was working till morning, and the phone didn't fell down/experience damages, I don't get why it stopped working all of a sudden.

Thanks Sikander... at the end, I think I will try a factory reset.. for nothing else is working...the phone has never been dropped :fingers-crossed:
but like I said, all my other devices are also connected to wifi and they are working perfectly so I would not think that it is a problem with the router...
thanks again... but pls let me know if you think that anything else might help

How to Use Mobile network without turning wifi off

Hey guys,
Is there any way to use Mobile Networks without turning Wifi off?
Currently, as soon as I turn Wifi On, if there's a know network around, it will connect to Wifi and obviously Mobile Network (3G) is not used...
However, is there any chance to still use Mobile Networks without:
- Turning Wifi OFF
- "Forget" known networks
Reason for all this is that I'm having an issue with my phone... When I turn Wifi On, it gets "stuck" turning it on, and the only way to get wifi connection is by turning phone off and then on again (seems like a known bug, but nothing seems to fix it)
So what I want to do is to keep Wifi On all the time, but always use Mobile Networks unless I want to connect to wifi...
Any idea?
I had the same problem a little while ago, other software worked for me.
There is a workaround that helped me when wifi was stuck
Go to settings and search wifi hot spot! Turn that on and off and try if the normal wifi is off again.
It doesnt work always, but you can try. But i would say put some new firmware on the phone!

if you go to settings, you see wireless&networks. you can click on "more"
you will see Tethering & portable hotspot click on it, and there is the option for the portable wifi hotspot.
enable it, and disable it again, next thing is to check if you can turn on wifi the normal way again.
i hope this helps for you!
Will give it a try!! Thanks!
