Default Wif disconnecting and reconnecting while downloading or surfing web

Has anyone noticed their wifi disconnecting since the latest update?

My WiFi doesn't connect after coming out of sleep sometimes. When I go to settings to check on the WiFi status, it is turned off. I've also noticed that although I have changed the option 'Keep WiFi on during sleep' to only when plugged in, it reverts back to always...even though it reverts back to always, it still does not turn on WiFi when coming out of asleep. My Acer a700 does not do this.

This has happened since latest update (26). I don't remember it happening prior to update.

I have been testing this more and more and it is happening when ever I am downloading a lot of data. I have tried multiple network settings and different networks and the same thing keeps happening. My WiFi will disconnect and then reconnect. Latest test was trying to download music from my google account to the Infinity. It starts downloading and then in a few minutes I get no internet connection. then it is like wifi turns back on and reconnects. Is anyone else having this issue. Can some others test this. I have reset the tablet to factory defaults 2X and I still have the issue.

Thanks

I have noticed this issues multiple times now on multiple different networks. There is definitely some sort of issue with the wifi...

I have had a TF101, a TF201 and now a TF700. Docked or undocked I've never had disconnects in WiFi. This is in spite of the fact that there are maybe 20 other WiFi networks visible. I guess I have a good WiFi router and do use a WiFi extender downstairs.

Bye.

Had this problem with my TF201
Set my router up to only use one channel and it helped. Used WiFi analyzer from the market to determine which channel was best.

Keep in mind that it could disconnect and reconnect without you even realizing it. I just happened to notice the wifi symbol going away and coming back on it's own a few times (one time, while waiting for a web page to reload). So, it *could* be occurring and you not even realize it...

Not a huge problem, but a problem nonetheless...

I've noticed this problem too, only after the .26 update
(coïncidence ? I'm not that much of a downloader to be considered as reliable statistics )
