I just bought Honor 7 PLK-L01 with B170, and already face a problem. The thing is, when I turn it on first time, and setup the connections, I can see wifi hotspots or routers, but honor 7 can't connect to them, it just says "saved" or something. I thought it was router problem, then I just skip it. Then I turned the wifi off in honor 7, but when turn it back on, none of the hotspots or routers shows up. It says "Scanning..." and the little circle turns around, but never found a wifi hotspot. It can transfer files thru Share It, and it uses wifi to do it. I'm using my other device as hotspot to use internet, and there are many routers nearby, but it can't find any...
I tried Add network... and type my hotspot name and password, but nothing happened...
Somehow creating wifi hotspot from Honor 7 works... I can connect to it, but not other around...
In Data traffic management, there's Mobile hotspot, where I can choose wifi network as hotspot, not even that fixed my problem...
I found a way: Reset my phone, removing sim and sd-card tray, turn it on, connect to wifi... But when I connect the tray, wifi goes down again...
It's either sim-card or sd-card... Without them works fine too...
I found out that I just need to update my firmware to B330, then it should fix the problem, I hope...
Yep, it does fix the wifi by updating to Emui 4.0
Hello,
I have a ZTE Axon 7, Android version 7.1 and I would like to know who is connecting to my hotspot wifi as I'm using it to share internet connection in 4G and I want to be sure Im sure not hacked, no one else than known devices are connecting.
At least to see the number of current connections would be better than nothing. Do you know if there is a way to limit the number of connection of the hotspot wifi? Unfortunately I don't if it's because of the Miflavor interface of ZTE but I cannot select a number a connection nor even see them..
Thanks!
I use my M5 in my car as a mobile hotspot so my Android headunit has internet access.
I have set it to stay on always and not time out.
However t he headunit loses internet access every time my M5 receives a WhatsApp message.
The only way to get it back is to disable and enable WiFi on the headunit.
I cannot figure out why this is happening.
I did not have this issue with my previous smartphones (Xiaomi Mi Max 3, Honor View 10)
I own the 8" LTE model (SHT-AL09) with stock ROM, unrooted and with locked bootloader. It originally had the EMUI 8 firmware SHT-AL09C636B196 (Oreo 8.0.0.196) but a few days ago I got an OTA and decided to upgrade it to the official EMUI 9 firmware SHT-AL09C636E2R1P2161 (Pie 9.0.1.161) and now 5Ghz WiFi networks don't work anymore.
Before the update, WiFi scan showed dozens of 5Ghz WiFi SSIDs in my area, including my own one, and I could connect to them without issues. Other apps such Wifi Analyzer also showed dozens of 5Ghz WiFi networks.
After the update, I can only see one distant 5Ghz network but not my own one. When I try to manually add my own 5Ghz SSID I got the error message "Unable to find MySSID".
It seems it is a hardware/system issue because Wifi Analyzer has also stopped showing all 5Ghz WiFi networks but one. I've used the mobile Hotspot feature of my other Android devices to rule out my router being the problem, but the issue persist. Needless to say other devices in my household (Android, WebOs, Laptop, ...) have no issues showing or connecting to my 5Ghz WiFi networks.
I can see many people having the same issue months ago when they updated their Honor phones, but so far nothing affecting the Mediapad.
Am I the only one with this issue? Any suggestion regarding what could I try to fix it?
Did you already try to change the channel on your router? Probably the channel you configured is no longer supported. This at least would explain why you can see other networks on 5GHz.

Thanks for the suggestion. I was using automatic channel. I've changed it to manual and tried several channels, but the result is still the same.
this exact issue happen to me (my son's Mediapad M5 Pro). just realized it today. tried resetting the tablet's network setting, connecting manually to the router 5G wifi. all to no avail. my other devices - 2 laptops, 2 mobile phones, 2 android boxes - all are connected to the router's 5G network without issue.

I read in Reddit some people manage to "fix" it by using a different channel in the router, as @AndDiSa suggested. Try setting the Wifi channel to manual an test different ranges of channel. Try first with the lower ones (36, 38, ...,46,48 ). If it doesn't work try with the highest range (149, ..., 155 ). If it still doesn't work, you can configure your router to use another region/country with differnt channels range until you find one that works.
same here, mediapad m5 8 (SHT-AL09), wifi 5ghz not work after upgrade to pie 9.0.1.161, I think this is bug. I'm using another huawei P20Pro and Honor Play, there are no issue about wifi 5ghz and connected to the same router
Please fix it Huawei
No WiFi issues here after I installed the OTA update to 9.0.1.160.
Does it seem to be a problem for the lte versions only? Is anyone with a wifi only tablet experiencing this problem?

I've a wifi only M5 8 - both 2.4 and 5GHz wifi is fine for me on Emui 9.
Same here. I own my M5 8.4 inch LTE version and I updated to Android Pie yesterday. I tried to factory reset for a couple of times and it didn't solve the problem. I think it's a bug of this firmware version hopefully it will be fixed soon.

Try changing the WiFi channel of your router. Lower channels did the trick for me

Yes, i tried that and it can connect to it. But it is very buggy. The connection drops a lot compared to my other devices that connect to the same 5Ghz SID. It is very noticable when playing head-to-head game such as Clash Royale when the bar is about 2 bars. It just drops off and switch to mobile. I have never experience the issue before emui 9 or on other devices.
:| I might have to drop back to 2.4Ghz.
Non LTE, not able to connect to 5GHz.
Suddenly able to connect on channel 40 after changing channels a few times, which is the channel it was on anyway. Weird.
Just to add to this, it connects at 5GHz but soon defaults to 2.4GHz.
Just updated my M5 8"LTE(C432) to Pie and no issues with 5Ghz Wi-Fi band works as usuall. Must mention that after all bigger update I start from 0 so I allways do a factory reset and start from scratch. This can solve many problems
After Upgraded, my Mediapad M5 only can see 5Ghz lower channel wifi (eg. Channel 60),cant detect upper channel ( eg. Channel 157)
hello, I upgraded to Pie this week (mediapad m5 pro LTE), after restarting the tablet 5 mhz networks did not see them, I made a network reset from settings, and rebooted the tablet, now works fine. sorry for my English.

Hello, after a few days that the tablet has worked well, it happens again that 5 mhz networks do not see them. I do a network reset again and it works again ... go pretty messy.
I have a WiFi only M5 10.8 inch device, and all was working fine until the OTA update. 5Ghz does connect to router but reports no Internet. Even though it reports this I can still browse using Chrome and can search for apps in the Play store but can't update or download any apps. I can use the same router on 2.4Ghz and everything is ok, so does look like a firmware issue.
"Great" job. As usual, from working device to buggy one.
How to disable update? I have WiFi only version and there is an option to auto-download update over WiFi, which I unchecked.

If I missed a forum for this i apologize.
I have a mate 20 pro and so far i have had no issues, until the last couple days. I will be going along and it will seem like i can't connect to the internet through my wifi. I will go to check my wifi and find out it's connected to the wrong network and when i try to turn it off and make it connect to the correct wifi I can't get it to disconnect. If i tap the wifi icon it will look like i disconnected but as soon as I slide the option buttons back up, the phone still shows i'm connected. The only way to break the connection to the wrong wifi is to reboot the phone.
Does anyone recognize this issue?
