Wifi N in froyo? - Desire General

As the title says guys,is wifi n enabled with the froyo OTA?
Thanks!

Nope.. as far as I see there is no option visible to user for this.

Meaning?Because I am pretty sure that my wifi signal has improved a lot after the update...

If somebody has a wireless N router, they could try changing it to N only and see if the phone is able to connect to it.

Just clicked my connection details to my N router and says speed is 54 Mbps so I guess not

Dont know about N, as I thought this was hardware, not software.
Anyway, I have noticed a better reception over wifi after the OTA update, and shows a stronger signal the OH's wildfire

There is no Wireless N in the recently released HTC Froyo update. I just tried to connect to my router only on Wireless N and it wouldn't connect.

The custom roms have it, but it's not in the OTA.

Well,that's a shame.But they must be some special kind of idiots!Having such a nice feature supported by the hardware and not by the software seems really stupid to me.Anyway,with such good reception as of now,it makes me wonder what N would be like!

Just curious. Could N consume more electricity? Maybe that's why they don't put it in.

There is a Wifi N driver in the Froyo ROM I'm using.
From my experience, it consumes a lot of battery. After some minutes of Wifi N, you can see the battery gauge lost some %.
When connected with Wifi N, I can see the connection reaches 72 mbps, while it is at 54 mbps for Wifi G.
As the battery drain is too big in my opinion, I switched my wireless router to Wifi B/G only so the Desire would connect only at G speed. With it, no problem of battery drain, battery usage is great.
I wish there was an application to switch the Desire from Wifi N to Wifi G on demand so if you need speed, you could use N (knowing the battery will empty faster), or use G for general use.

I think that is not possible but I'm not sure... normally all WiFi devices work at max speed available so if you have a router WiFi-N the Desire works in N speed.

the chipset supports many things like 720p and N wireless. however HTC have to stump up the cash to use the features from the chipset maker., otherwise there not activated to save HTC money, thats why 720p became available, HTC decided to pay for the license.
N isn't enabled because of cost not hardware limitations.
(this is information I found on the xda site using search)

Slow WiFi connection

I have noticed that my G2's WiFi connection runs VERY slow. I get speeds of 2mb/s while on a computer I get 25+mb/s. I get the same ping on both devices. Is this a hardware or software limitation that can be solved by a kernel fix?

There is a thread about the G2/DZ having WiFi antenna issues. This happens when you use the phone in landscape mode. Signal bars drop significantly. In my case, I got totally disconnected (but I had poor WiFi signal strength that time). However, when I remove my hand from the top part of the device, signal strength and speed return. This could probably be your issue, since I really get good speed from my DZ. I could even stream movies over WiFi.
Do you have wifi calling enabled? Try disabling it and restarting. You'll likely see regular speeds again. Works for me every time.

Nope, I will be looking at the bcm4329 source when I get my computer running to see if I can boost the speed a little.
This may also be a router combatibility problem. So we can narrow it down can people post this:
Router brand/model
Wireless B/G/N
Wpa wep or no security
Hidden access point (yes/no)
And if you are having problems

And if you are having problems: Only when wifi calling is enabled. Must disable that and restart in order to get expected speeds. For example, it drops from standard 12mbit to like 1mbit.

I have the same problem with my G2.
Wi-Fi is on all the time when I'm at home, as is Wi-Fi calling because the signal is very weak here. When I first connect to Wi-Fi it's very fast. Normally I get approximately 17mbps down, 3.5mbps up. However, it seems like the connection "goes stale" after a while and I end up only getting about 2-3mbps both up and down.
It's not consistent though. Sometimes it gets slow right away, other times it will take a couple hours. But it always drops to the 2-3mbps range consistently. Plus I always have issues with the connection after it drops in speed: No connection errors, sometimes unresponsive, etc.
To fix it I simply turn Wi-Fi off and back on, but that gets to be a hassle because I have to do it every time I want to use my phone.
It has nothing to do with holding the phone in vertical or horizontal orientation, or signal strength, because even when I'm using the phone right next to the router it still happens. I never had this issue with my Cliq, but it didn't have Wi-Fi calling, which I'm thinking is the cause. Though I haven't tested it to see if it still happens with Wi-Fi calling off.
It happens with any ROM, though currently running CM7 Nightly 27.
Anyone have an explanation, or a solution?
Update: After testing it seems to only happen when wifi calling is enabled. Although I have to turn wifi off and back on to fix it. Simply turning off wifi calling doesn't fix it.

wifi problem 2.3.3

Regards
I have a problem with wifi after I put update on 2.3.3
whether it can solve this problem with wifi.
I always shoot and it turns the wifi network.
be a good wifi network signal then disappears
Same problem here
This is a very serious problem. Get ur act together HTC, this is just unacceptable!
Are you rooted? HTC raised the signal strength at which the connection would be dropped, there is a fix if you are rooted, otheewise you are stucm and will have to wait for HTC to correct this.
Sent from my Desire HD
Have you tried another radio? of course be careful if you do change it
same issue, though htc say that its a "new feature" to provide a seamless mobile broadband experience by automatically chosing the strongest signal. whatever you say htc
i just disable mobile data at home, so it cant jump back to 3g and stays on wifi. the annoying thing with this is that i forget to enable mobile data when leaving the house.
i hope they sort it out, and that this new feature isn't rolled out across their other products
I am having the same problem. At work, my wifi connection is weak, but was always functional. Now, I cannot connect to my work wifi. On top of that, my battery drains twice as fast on my phone, and I'm thinking that it's due to the phone always scanning and trying to connect to the wifi signal. If it's true that HTC changed the level at which the wifi signal is dropped, this was a terrible decision.

I think this may answer/point to the problem I'm having since installing the Gingerbread RUU. I use the quick settings app from the market and pre-gingerbread it used to switch between wi-fi/mobile pretty seemlessly, turning off the unused option. Now if there's no wi-fi connection that option seems to stay on (probably searching) while it's connected to mobile data. As above, my battery is draining like a sieve.

Same problem for me with Original Rom.
so i tried the Revoloution HD 5.1.4 and same problem again!
Hi guys until HTC release an OTA fix (that's if they do) the only way to resolve this is to root and then try some different ROM and radio combinations until you find one that works for you.
I find the ROM and radio from my signature work really well on WiFi but if you are going to do this make sure and root, gain S-OFF and ENG S-OFF. Also make sure you have the correct RIL for the ROM and radio that you are using
There are lots of threads on the dev section that guide you through this.
Wifi connecting
I have a similar problem with wifi connection. Only it doesn't disconnect during a connection but when establishing a wifi connection it takes much longer than it used to on Froyo. Anyone else noticed this?
i have problem too with wifi
I really hope htc has stopped the updates and resumes with a new build with the wifi problem fixed
The issue is with the Gingerbread Sense ROMs.

WiFi problems with routers
Hi there,
Same problem here. Both my WiFi router and phone say signal and reception quality are perfect and connection it stable, but data won't flow.
I'm having this problem with my Speedtouch (WEP key) router at home, whereas a Sitecom router at the office works fine (WPA etc. key).
Tried some work arounds, without success
Regards
***EDIT***
I can add that it has nothing to do with the reported threshold of -88dB signal strength. As I checked that with the *#*#4636#*#* option and both higher and lower values of the WiFi reception don't make any difference. The problem persists.
***EDIT v2***
The suggestion posted elsewhere to change from WEP to WPA didn't work out either
***EDIT v3***
Reverted back to ARHD 3.7 and WiFi is running fine again .
Hope some fix will be found soon!
Regards,
Is there any solution. I am trying to downgrade the radio but no chance.
If I use LeeDroid or Revolution will this same problem be there?

HTC One X WiFi problems solved!

Ok guys so I've been complaining about my WiFi speed and loading time of the phone so far. I have a new router and I've even tried sitting right next to it! But still the same thing!
I'm sure that I'm not the only person who feels that the phone is slightly slow on WiFi out of the box with standard settings.
I have actually solved the problem and It's a very EASY fix! Do the following:
1. Settings>WiFi>Advanced >Tick best WiFi performance.
I did this and honestly is like a new phone! I am so much more happy with the phone. The difference is night & day!
I hope this helps people start loving their One X again!

What about battery consumption with this seting on though?
That was always my biggest concern for not using this setting.
Router Settings
Hi there,
when I got my HOX out of the box at home and connected it vie WiFi to my WLAN Router Fritzbox 7570 vDSL the HOX connected, but it was not possible to bring up a website like www.google.com, and after very little time the whole WiFi network collapsed, with all other clients showing only restricted connection, but no access to the internet anymore....restarting of the router was necessary.
In a German forum someone suggested to switch the WLAN from 2.4Ghz b+g+n to 2.4Ghz b+g which is a setting option with my particular Fritzbox.
I did so, and voila....no problems whatsoever anymore... HOX showing 54Mbits as does my Samsung Gtab 10.1n or my laptop...
just checked when the router is set to WLAN 2.4Ghz b+g+n the HOX shows 11Mbits and the laptop 130Mbits...
Maybe it is a good idea to see if you have a setting on your router to disable the n standard and only run b+g...and report back.
Then you don't need the Best WiFi setting at all...at least I don't need it!

I am quite sure the battery will get a hit. No free lunches.
I do notice when the signal is weak my wifi seems to disconnet and reconnect.
I have just noticed there is another option that says switch network when the wifi signal is weak. I have loads of wifi signals around my area. Maybe it was trying to connect to my neighbours. I have unticked it now (default is ticked!) and see if that issue still comes up.
But the disconnect/reconnect was pretty fast. Nontheless it is still annoying.

Well some people may have devices at home that run at N. Switching the router off to G-only may not be desirable. But as I said above, try unticking the auto switching option. It could be the phone was trying to switch band when it detected the current signal was weak.
Im sure most of us had already tried this. I'm still unable to connect to most networks or my connection gets cut off every 20 minutes or so. HTC rep explained that there must be an issue with the networkS I'm trying to connect to, as he is able to exclude a bardware failure ias a possible cause by virtue of the fact that I'm not entirely unable to connect to a network. He went on to say that you may compare this to a Turbo on a car, it is either broken or in complete working order. I was stunned at his incompetence in both mechanical and electrical engineering.
Bottom line is, it's impossible to get a proper connection on my phone.

Ok so I will post my battery usage after today of having best WiFi performance on. Seems like it may use an extra 1-2% so far. Will know for sure ay the end of the day.
One thing I can notice is that when I look at the battery stats the WiFi usage bar is solid blue now. Or used to have multiple broken lines through it.

[Q] Certain WiFi network draining battery

Hey! I have a battery drainage problem. My batter goes down really, really fast when I connect to my WiFi network at home. This happens only with my WiFi at home, after I changed the router to a new one. This did not happen with the previous router. I DO NOT experience such drastic battery drain on any other WiFi networks. This occurs on both my SGS2 and SGS3. This is clearly not an issue with my phone or android version but the WiFi router. Could you give me some troubleshooting ideas what I could do/test with my router (maybe it's a certain feature that drains the battery) to reduce the battery drain? Maybe there's some utility for android to help me see what's going on? I suppose my router somehow stops android from going into deep sleep but that's just a wild guess.

Check for noise on the channel you are using. If there are a lot of networks in your area that are on or close to your channel it is hard for your device to keep connected through all of the noise and will cause a heavier battery drain. If you can find a clear Channel near the beginning or end of the spectrum you are better off as there is less bleed over. Also make sure your router is set for g for sure and n in auto. Don't force a specific band. They will connect the fastest way that they can both talk to each other.

Something thats often overlooked is newer routers function on the 802.11 *N* networks rather than the older A, B or G bands.
This, from my knowledge offers higher data output and transfer rates, which in turn means that your phone could and most likely is processing higher amounts of data in a shorter amount of time which could very well cause high battery drain.
I would try switching to the G band if you don't mind losing a small amount of bandwith.
Thanks for the replies. I set my router to work only in 802.11g mode and I'll install BetterBatteryStats to see what's going on. I doubt it'll help but I have nothing to loose...

[Q] Poor wifi signal

Sooo I've had my M8 for nearly a month now and I love the thing. However, I notice that I've been having some issues with the M8 not being able to detect or connect to my home and office's wifi. My laptop and my fiance's Nexus 5 can detect our home wifi network with full strength.
Interestingly, the closer I get to my router, the stronger the signal gets, but the moment I move maybe 20 feet away into another room, the wifi cuts out or gets very weak. I understand that distance is a factor, but I feel that my M8 should be able to connect to my router in the next room, especially when other devices can do so with no problem.
I think it's also worth noting that this was not always an issue. This only started happening recently - the only software upgrade that I did was the Verizon push that installed right out the box. I have not made any changes to my wifi network at home or work.
I've tried a couple of things with no resolution, including;
Resetting my router (power cycling)
Restarting my phone
Forgetting both wifi networks and manually re-adding them
Changing my wifi direct name
Turning on airplane mode, turning off my wifi, turning off airplane mode then turning on wifi (this was a suggested method for the M7 that I saw on another forum)
I did some Googling and didnt find much, so maybe I just have a lemon, but I did see that wifi connectivity was an issue with the M7.
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
I'm having the exact same problem getting over 20Mbps over Ethernet but then 0.25Mbps on my M8 over WiFi even when close to router
Have you guys played around with your routers settings?
What signal is your router on, wireless b,g,n,ac?
Is it throwing mixed frequency? (2.4ghz or 5ghz or both)
Go to WiFi settings in the phone, then advanced, then it will probably say "auto".
Try setting it on only 2.4ghz or only 5ghz see if that helps.
