[Q] Wifi keeps dropping off?

---

Hi all

Does anyone else have an issue with their wifi where it looks like its connected (blue wifi logo etc) but that it doesn't work? (ie can't browse, emails and twitter doen't refresh etc)

You can 'fix' it by turning wifi off and on again, but then a few minutes later the connection has gone again?

It is not a signal strength issue as it happens next to my router as much as upstairs, away from the router.

I've moved router channels to a less crowded frequency but to no avail.

Does anyone have any ideas?

I have a rooted .29 if that helps?

Same here but on the. 17 version I think....

Possibly not a great deal of help, but I just took mine back and the new one is perfect. No one else seems to have any problems so I assumed it was a hardware fault.

No wifi problems on mine. Using a Netgear WNDR4500. Range is excellent, much better than any of my other android devices.

Works like a champ! rooted .26 :thumbup:

I had problems with wpa2+psk. With out security everything works fine. Then I started to try the different security options and I'm now using wpa+psk without any problems
