hi, my wifi connection speed decreased (compared to 3g and even the speed tests show that it's 7.6 mbits) after updating to 2.3.3 (not rooted)
what settings do i have to change on my router to get back on track?
thanks in advance..
Is your home computer speed slow too?

no it's fine, i tried the phone on another modem and the wifi wasn't slow.

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

Router brand/model: Airlink 300N
Wireless B/G/N: Wireless N
Wpa wep or no security: WPA
Hidden access point (yes/no): no
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.
Oh yeah forgot to post mine...

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.

Hello guys!
I have i little problem with my CM7: every time when i try to connect to internet via data networks it gets me the data connection error and it won't load.
I've searched for the right apn settings, i've tried to see if it was a problem with the browser, but nothing changed.
What to do? Thanks
Does somebody have the same problem?
did you try band switcher yet?

Defy as modem with Eclair?
Hi,
Can Defy with Android 2.1 act as model for dial-up connection to connect to PC? if yes then how?
Thanks in advance...
I also have problems with data connectivity as well. I don't have a data plan, but I use WiFi for all my internet needs. But in CM7 I could not for the life of me download a picture message. Download of message failed. I had to reflash back to xd1 to get it to download.
There is a problem with the data connectivity. Has anyone researched into this?
Yes, i've tryied the baseband switcher but with no luck
Any solutions?
Is anyone able to get data but having problems with over all speed? 3g acting like 2g? After I flashed cm7 i was stuck on edge. Found out about the baseband switcher and i have 3g back using USA baseband .9 but not the speed that goes with it. Right now I'm over my 200mb "4g" cap so i have to wait till the 5th for my cycle to start over. I got 3g back with 5mb left to my cap. So how is data working for you?
Flashed using
JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-11_BLUR_SIGN
CM7.1.0-rc1
baseband us tmobile 3.4.2-107-9
I've yet to see anything on my N2 register more than 10mbps down or 4mbps up when using wifi as the data path. It doesn't matter if the speed test is using an internet-based speed testing server, or if I transfer a file to one of my wired LAN PC's.
Oddly enough, I sometimes get faster speeds with HSPA (25+ mbps). It doesn't matter what router I connect to (I have several AP's on my network) - whether at home, neighbors, work, or family. Both my N2 and my wife's show the same type of speed limit.
Not only is it slow, but it's very erratic. I've tried all the standard suggestions (turning of power save mode, always on during sleep, etc), but none of these matter. Both 2.4GHz and 5GHz have the same speed caps.
With all that being said, I'm curious:
What are your maximum DOWNLOAD speeds you've experienced using a WIFI connection?
I consistently get 20mbps+. On 5Ghz, Brighthouse networks, Orlando area, with Roadrunner lightning service.
I get the same as on my home wired computer... 30MB

Sure does make me wonder what's so special about my two N2's. Im running a stock deoxed, rooted rom. In fact, it's this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2091214
I wish I could say with confidence that the original unrooted rom was just as slow, but I didn't have it on my phone long enough to even test it...
What rom are you guys running?
I have gotten as high as 27-30 mbps down and 10.5 up. The down was on my home wifi. The up was in the wifi at work.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
I'm on stock everything. Only thing I've done is rooted and added the xposed framework to add apps to the multi Window.
I have comcast 50Mb down and 10Mb up I can ever exceed 20Mb down but somehow my upload goes over my 10Mb up
hi
i have issues with wifi. it has weak signal and disconnects often.
the question is, is there any kernel which worked on this?
now, i am using UHD rom with lupus kernel.
thanQ
I'm experiencing this too with my lt18... I got a bit more of range by changing my router's wireless signal from 11bgn mixed to 11b using its configurator.
i have no access to router. so i cant change it to 11b.
is it wrong to compare my phone's reception with my laptop? because my laptop gets a fair signal.
As far I know, you can't compare a laptop signal with a phone's one, my lap also has decent signal while my phone's already dead. I have no idea but something I just wouldn't recommend using those "boost wifi" apps which never worked for me.
I just installed radeon kernel and it seems to get better.

Is anyone else having slow WiFi after the update? I did a speed test with my wife's S4 and had over 20 Mbits. But when I do the speed test on my S6 with M I barely get 1 Mbits. Is there a quick fix or is this an issue that we have to wait for an update.
WiFi still works perfectly fine for me. Have you tried resetting your connection to the WiFi?
Yes. Reset the settings on the phone and rebooted the router. Still acting slower than the phone running lollipop.
My wifi became very slow after MM - no resolution yet
I'm also having this issue. My router also has a 5g band however that works fine. But the normal wifi is very slow.

Well I removed my network from my phone and reset the router. Set back up my WiFi and now it seems to be better now. Will keep checking.
I had a network extender (slower than my wifi connection point), after MM installation, MM always connected to the slower extender. I deleted the extender definition, reset my connection point setting. Wifi performance improved close to what it was before MM.
This happened when I updated my wife's phone, I did a factory reset and started like new and fixed the issue... I didn't have this issue when I updated mine tho.
I still having issues with slow WiFi. Almost as slow as dial up sometimes.
Trying turning on bluetooth, it improves wifi speeds for some reason.

I finally gave in to doing a factory reset, that appears to have solved the slow wifi problem.

After performing I found out that the Retailmenot app was having an adverse on my wifi performance. I turned of the notifications for it and the problem went away. My son received the Marshmellow update and had bad wifi performance. Also his mobile hotspot wouldn't work. He uninstalled Retailmenot, wifi problem went away and hotspot began working.

Today I found out that if I have the Bluetooth on my WiFi crawls very slowly. If I turn off my Bluetooth my WiFi is full speed. So now I know it is the Bluetooth affecting WiFi. Any suggestion on how to fix this. I have a GearS watch and need to keep my Bluetooth on all the time.
