I started using cm7 final the day after it released. Work great for the most part. I know the navigation is messed up a bit and see that it may be fixed in nightly 54 and it sounds like FB is having issues too, but that the board knows about that.
I have read some of the wifi issues but don't see any elaboration on what the problems are exactly. So for me. @ home I have no problem accessing wifi and connecting (WPA2). HOWEVER, at a couple other sites, one running a d-link 825 WPA2, it acts as though it is going to connect, the phone says it is getting an IP address, then it cycles and starts over to searching, found, getting IP. It jut keeps cycling. My home wifi is a d-link 655 and like I said no issues. Anyone know if there is a quick fix or is this a greater problem?
If you have an answer, great, if not I hope this helps someone.

changing the channel freq may help, the wifi issue thats spread through the forums is no matter what they cant connect to any wifi,and the fix for that is getting the Tiwlan.ini from cm 6.1.1 and pushing it to cm7 fixes wifi issue, but since you are able to connect to home wifi, and not others changing the freq channel to 11 or along those lines could fix your problem

I flashed nightly 54 and lost wifi again, as with all cm 7 releases. I pushed the cm 6.1.1 tiwlan.ini file and it still wouldn't work, so I connected to mobile network first, then I turned on wifi and it connected. This method might help you.
As for the issue I have with the cm 7 releases, I can usually connect to wifi, but I get no data moving in or out with wifi and no connection to google servers (wifi icon turning green from grey in status bar) so no internet on any app or browser or market, etc.

You need to install the nightly 45 or 54 since WiFi drivers were rebuilt. Also, check that your wireless router isn't doing any kind of special speed boosting to the g standard. Lastly, try forgetting your connection and re-establish it.

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.

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?
hi guys, since I started trying gingersense roms, I alway had the same problem, wifi drops when signal is low. I never had this problem with froyo roms. There is a fix for this problem? This is very annoying for me, because in my home wifi signal is always low, but I havn't problem with other devices.
Thanks.
Some news, if I switch off 3g data connection, WiFi hasn't any problem, but if I turn it on, WiFi connection drops and I must go to WiFi settings and it riactivate itself.

Are you sure this was working on Froyo?
From my experience I can say this was the same with 2.2 (Desire stock ROM).
Not really sure this is a bug btw. If I tell my device it can use 3G networks I think I should expect it to switch to 3G as soon as Wi-Fi signal becomes unreliable...

Yes this is the right behavior, but when WiFi drops, if I go in WiFi settings, my device automatically reestablish the wifi connection. This seems a bug!
Also got the same problem here.
I tried to change radio to 5.17.05.23 and i've changed wifi advanced settings to improve wifi signal, but the problem is the same. When wifi signal is poor, it drops and I must go in wifi settings to reestablish connection.

Try changing channels on the WiFi router.

I don't think I can do that with my university internet... and it shouldnt be the channels, the phone seems to be the problem, more specifically the ROM
I'm having this problem also. Until Insertcoin 2.0.1 it was ok. Since the first GB releases Wifi drops much earlier than before if the signal gets worser .. atm I'm using Insertcoin GB 1.0.3
Same problem with reflexs 2.0.5

Hrrrm i just flashed Leedroid 3.06 just to test it here... i have no issues, i am actually able to connect to an open network down the street...
I also flashed the latest radio avail too
Leedroid 3 is based on Bravo Gingerbread HTC Asia WWE 3.06.707.0
I' talking about Ace S 2.36.405.8 WWE base, Gingerbread 2.3.3 android (GRI40) based ROMs, like insertcoin or reflex s.

Yes there are many places, that I know, my Wifi is working flawlessly with Froyo ROMs (eg. my bed, in the back of my garden or the wc at work ), and where is no connection, or where I have to connect manually with GB ROMs.
I was wondering,ifI this is a issue with my phone only ... but it seems not
Is there a fix for this available?
I'm having this problem also. I'm using InsertCoin GB 1.0.3
With Insertcoin 1.0.5 and Blade wifi fix (downloaded from market) the the situation has improved, but the problem has not yet been resolved.
I got the same problem with WiFi dropping when 3g is on. Also with leedroid 2.3 my 3g was off but connected by itself when there was no WiFi around. With Insertcoin its not working.
Same issue here with Oxygen 2.1.3 and Radio 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08.
Cant confirm if its 3G related or not. WiFi connection was stable for 10min with 2g only. Another 10min with 3g enabled and i've got a disconnect again.
I've the same problem since upgarding to GB ROM.
I found a fix for Desire S - see link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051674
Any chance to have the same for Desire?
Thank you

Looking for any ideas...
When I activate WiFi near a known network, it starts to connect, holds at obtaining an ip address, the disconnects and restarts the connection process.
Happens on multiple WiFi access points, home, work, hotel. Rebooted my home router in the hopes that it was coincidence, but it did not help. Wife's Facinate and iPad, and both of our work laptops (Windows7) connect to the home network just fine.
Running CM7 Nightly 258
11/14 Incredikernel, downgraded to the unofficial 11/04 and the official 10/8. Even tried the stock CM7 kernel.
Was running the 08.08 radio, switched to the 07.07, but still have the issue.
WiFi works after a wipe and reinstall untill I reboot, then this starts.
My droid pro did that on cm7 for a while. It would connect if I went to the WiFi settings screen though. Have you tried going to WiFi settings while its in this connecting loop?

Unfortunately yes. I have turned on wifi from the notification widget and from inside settings and receive the same result, no connection and a big battery drain.
Fixed it over the weekend. In case others have problems with AT&T U-Verse 2Wire routers, the change I made that resolved it was to switch from the router default wireless security of WPA to WPA/WPA2...
Im having issues with my wifi signal on cm7.2 When I'm in my computer room perfect signal as soon as I move away from router signal drops to two bars. I was hoping wifi signal issues were going to get fixed in 7.2 had the same issue in 7.1. Anyone having similar issues? On Glite 2.0.1 I had perfect signal all the time. I'm using a Dual antena 802.11n router.
