Hi all, I just updated my phone to JB. it seems that wifi has stopped working. Although It shows connected to the modem, I can't browse using the wifi. There are no issues with the data connection. I tried restarting the modem, restarting the phone etc yet the problem is still there. The moment I connect to the wifi it works for a while but then it dies off. I even did a factory reset on the phone yet no respite.

The hboot version is 1.36 and everything is stock. Can someone please help me out here?

Try forgetting the network or change password for your wifi network? Sometimes that will solve the problem. Have you also tried using your wifi on other devices? If it is still a One X problem only, send it for service.

If you are on N.
Try setting router to G only, see how that works.
While I dont have this issue on one x, got this same issue on china tablet connecting to certain Wifi access point.

Generally I say it's compatibility issue, between newer wifi driver on JB update and particular Wifi AP. And enabling G mode only increase compatibility.

Actually this modem was working well when I was on ICS. This problem only started after updating to JB.

Will see that what's funny is that the modem worked well when I was on ICS. I don't understand how it started having issues with JB...

I had the same problem when I updated the wife's rhyme to ICS, I had to do a full reset on my router and then it worked but every time I flash a new rom on my HOX the rhymes wifi goes down again so have to keep resetting my router, which is a pain

Haven't found a solution yet, I have tried everything but only resetting the router works for the rhyme.

This is the best thing you should try.., set the Wifi to G only or B/G only and then try connecting your devices. i had a tablet with this problem and it was so simple to sort it out with this router setting change.

what is your router's brand or manufacturer?
try disabling the WMS (or WMM on other brand) in wireless settings

I had this problem since ICS and this trick worked for me.

Ok I confirm. Setting the WiFi to g solves the issue. I really don't understnd why is n mode not working...there was no issue when I was on ICS. Strange.

i was having the exact same wifi issues with my phone back when i had ICS, however it seems the JB update has gotten rid of them for me

You shouldn't have to downgrade your wifi band to G.it's definately a software issue. Try going to wifi settings and change the wifi frequency band from auto to an actual value (eg 2.4)

I will look into this.
