This is a strange issue that I have not seen before. I was starting to have issues with my phone connecting to the wifi at the house. I decided to flash a clean rom today and hopefully that would fix the issue. I did a clean install and now my phone will only connect to the 5G band and not the 2.4GHz wifi band. I would like to connect to the 2.4ghz band but I get a message saying authentication error. I removed the connection and connected using the wps push button but when i do this it only sees the 5G. Any ideas what is going on and how I can correct it?
Do you see the same issue on the stock build ??
You are running what rom ??
Try the rooted stock build as a test. ..and if no change. ..reset the router and set up the connection on the device again. ..g
Have you tried turning off the power saver?
I suspect your router as the culprit but you can try going into the advance menu.
Hit *#0011#* hit menu then wifi menu.
I think you may even be able to choose the band? I think you can choose auto or manually pick 2.4 or 5ghz. Either way see if shutting off the power saver helps.

That is strange usally its the other way around...I have my dual band set up similar to yours..I named the 2.4 actually 2.4 and 5.0 same password..sometimes ill have to hit scan to show the 5ghz band...sounds stuiped..but make sure you click show password and make sure your entering rhe correct one..it may be so simple you may entered wrong password...or try changing the channel on the 2.4 ghz in rhe router setring to a different channel..mybe be a conflict..change it to channel 11..and reboot the router. ..
I have tried it on a stock rooted rom as well as CleanRom 3. Does the same. I have not tried a CM based rom to see if it only does it with the TW based rom's. I have checked the router and I don't see anything there that should cause the problem. I have 4 other android phones, and android tablet, and 1 iphone in the household and none of the others are having this issue. I have also noticed that it doesn't always say authentication error. Sometimes it says out of range even though I can be standing right beside the router. I am stumped.

Did you ever solve this? I'm having similar problem with my Note 2. I have a strong wifi signal incoming to the phone, but the transmission signal is very weak (verified using dd-wrt on the router and looking at client signal strength). My Note 2 has extremely poor strength.. ~10% where every other device on my network is ~50%. I've tried factory reset, turning off wifi power save mode.. not sure what else to try.
I am having a similar problem for the past couple months. My Note2 (ATT) with custom ROM won't connect to a 2.4 GHz wifi. No problem connecting to 5GHz wifi.
I saw an answer to this for a Sony Experia that the problem is with 802.11 mode and to change a file option gDotMode from 3 to either 1 or 2, but I haven't found a file with that option in it yet.
Same problem here, no 2.4 authentication unless the phone is very close to 2.4GHz AP.
Same problem here, no 2.4 authentication unless the phone is very close to 2.4GHz AP.
I have noticed that in some public networks i can connect with no trouble, (I guess now that they're 5.8GHz)
but not at home
Any solution? I am using a note 2 i317m with stock rom 4.3 from TELCEL mexico carrier

Hi,
Just received my Galaxy Nexus earlier today and have been battling to have it attempt a connection to my WiFi router at home, it'll have a go at the neighbours routers but just says 'saved' on mine and never connects or fails regardless of password given or settings used.
Well - I just found the issue, if I set the E4200 to 'G' mode the phone connects perfectly, but it WILL NOT connect to the router set to 'N' speeds on 2.4 or 5GHz using 20 or 40 MHz channel width.
Anyone found there are potential issues with this phone and 'N' routers? I should mention I've tried 3 different kernels (stock, modaco and franco) and 3 different ROM's (4.0.1 stock, 4.0.2 Revolution HD and 4.0.3 build in the dev section) and all exhibit the same issue. Have not changed baseband as I'm using a 'T' model and want to keep my I9250TDVKK6 modem - this is probably where the problem is anyway.
Anyone else having similar or found a workaround or solution? Thanks!
Hi,
have you tried settings the MHZ band on auto or anything besides just 20mhz band? not many devices like this channel, I'm not having any trouble on the Aerohive system at work or other Netgear at home.
Thanks for the thought! 20 is standard but I've tried every setting - it will connect on 2.4GHz using 'G' fixed speed/protocol or 5GHz only using 'A', neither works at all on 'N' on any channel, width or security
It is bizarre, it's like the phone decides it won't try and says "saved" on the profile once the password is put in when its on "N" there is no connecting, authenticating or getting an IP feedback at all, it does nothing really. If I choose another working AP after trying an "N" one the "N" one says 'disabled'.
My SGS2 worked flawlessly and without complaint previously on any "N" or otherwise setting.
I have the same model router, and it is working for me. I have both the 2.4 and 5 ghz set to mixed network mode. Channel width set to auto, and security/encryption matching on both frequencies. On the Nexus, I have the 5 ghz specified in Wifi settings.

I have this model and connect via the 5ghz connection with no problems.
Same with E3000 with DD-WRT and Virginmedia Superhub
I've been suffering with this problem for a while now. I bought mine on the 19th Nov and tried it out in pure 5 Ghz mode almost straight away and was very impressed with the throughput from my 50Mb Virginmedia cable connection (40+Mb/s with Speedtest.net app).
All was well until I suddenly couldn't connect. It said the SSID was saved and the signal was excellent but tapping "connect" did nothing. I presumed my phone was acting a little screwy so did a had reset (stock unrooted 4.01F YAKU) and tried again but still suffered the same problem.
I started to suspect it could be a channel issue as the GN only supports a handful of 5Ghz channels, so set them accordingly in DD-WRT on my E3000...same result.
To rule out the router, I activated the 5Ghz wireless on my Virginmedia Superhub and what do you think happened?? Exactly the same as before. Everytime I tapped connect, there was no evidence of and attempt to connect to the network. I then tried the 5Ghz SSID on the E3000 and got the same result with the Superhub one dropping back to "disabled" as the OP noticed.
I'm trying to recall if the problem occured before or after the volume fix OTA but I can't really remember to be honest. I'm sterting to think that the handset is faulty as only a couple of people seem to be suffering with this issue...
---------- Post added at 09:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:38 PM ----------
I Googled the issue again and discovered a post on Androids bug posting forum which seems to indicate it's a hardware fault:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=23296
I think a trip back to Phones4U is in order for an exchange.
It's happened again!!
I have the same problem with the replacement handset as before. I had just been using 5Ghz, disconnected and when I tried to reconnect, it just sat there as if I hadn't selected "Connect". I've been looking around on various forums and I'm inclined to think that they just die after a while as there arer many other posts similar to this with lots of people trying saying the same as I (and the OP did). Mine has been fine for over 2 months and suddenly has ceased to work...Looks like a warranty replacement this time as P4U were kind enough to replace the handset in-store even though I was out of the 30 day exchange period as I had shown them this forum post indicating it was a known problem that other users were suffering...Technology always fails me in the end
..
Wi-Fi on the GN is horribly broken—you just need to accept it until the Android developers get their heads out their *sses and fix it. Using our Cisco enterprise-class access points, the GN cannot connect at 5GHz—though every other Wi-Fi device that supports 5GHz can. That said though, the GN CAN do 11n over 2.4GHz. Go into Settings, Wireless and Networks, Wi-Fi and tap on your SSID. This should show you your link speed and 72Mbps is as good as you’re going to get with a 20MHz channel and the GN hardware—mine shows 65Mbps and this is an 11n speed, albeit a slower one. From the configuration of our enterprise-class access points, 11g covers “6.0, 9.0, 12.0, 18.0, 24.0, 36.0, 48.0 and 54.0”—whereas 11n covers “m0-m15” (MCS index). The GN only supports m0-m7 and, currently, my GN is connecting at m6.
Hope this helps! At least a little.
Kindly poll whether you can use wifi properly or with any fixing methods such as copying folders from 4.1.1 roms, or Disabling Wifi Power Save Mode.
If you use any other method apart from the two mentioned above,kindly comment about the method.
Lastly, if you are able to use wifi Without Any Fix, do post your firmware and rom.
I am currently on DMC3, wifi worked properly for a day without doing anything and then it just broke. Network disabled due to poor connection. And then i had to use the copying wifi folder from 4.1.1 trick. And it works fine now.
Kindly download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.android.telnet&hl=en
Go to wifi tab and post the frequency you see.
I never experienced issues with Wi-Fi on my Note 2 on 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 stock.Whenever I reach home a message appears:Connected to .....
No issue.
Used all types of roms and kernels like wanam arhd omega phoenix pacman jelly bear pa and many other roms.
I have tried every single kernel. No problems on any of the combinations. Currently on wanam and redpill

I think the problem lies in the band of the wifi router. 5G seems to work fine while 2.4G(mine) need some tweaking to do.
Do you have a wifi router at home and what band is it?
I don't know the speed exactly but it says 54m adsl 2+ router.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Since the recent DMC3 upgrade, wifi connects fine every time. But the bug of decreasing speed over time, is still present.
This NEVER occurred with the 4.1.1 FW, so it's NOT router related. My router: Netgear CG3100 b/g/n 20Mhz bandwidth.
I was initially very happy, finding that the connection bug was gone in this FW, 'til I realised the speed problem wasn't.

Can you explain this "decreasing of speed over time" problem?
I mean that when I connect to the wifi network, the speed is 20-24Mbit/s down,
& 9-10Mbit up, as it's supposed to be. If I then leave the phone on the table for,
say 15-30 minutes, & after that pick it up and do a speed test, it has dropped
to between 2 & 3Mbit/s down, and around 3Mbit/s up. I disconnect from the
wifi network, reconnect immediately, and speeds are back to normal again.
Same every time. This bug, Sammy somehow failed to wipe out....
Wifi troubleshooting can be sort of a black arts. Regardless of where the fault lies, what you should do first is log into the router's control panel, and disable as many functions as possible, including setting it to b only, disabling qos, wmm and such, security to none, perhaps assign a static ip etc.
If it works, enable features one by one by process of elimination.

Has anyone experienced issues with Wireless?
I will be connected to a wireless network, can disconnect and reconnect just fine, everything seems to be working, but if I open an app that is trying to load data, it does nothing, as thought I have no connection. I have tried turning it off and on, forgetting the network(s) and reconnecting and the only thing that ever fixes the issue is a restart of the phone. Once I restart it will work just fine until the next "blip" in the radio.
Thanks in advance,
Zach
Yep, I have this issue but only when connected to my WiFi extender. Connecting to the main router works fine.
Just to add info, I connect to a Samsung Verizon Extender every day since owning the Note 4 and have no issues.
I also have never had any issues like the OP mentioned. I would start looking at apps you have installed.
Remove and test and so on. I did a quick search and did not find this to be any known issue.

I found this, maybe it will work, sorry you are having troubles.
Problem: Wi-Fi connection
Every time a new smartphone is released there are a lot of reports about problems with connecting to Wi-Fi networks or maintaining good Wi-Fi speeds. Here’s what to try if it happens to you:
Potential solutions:
Try turning your Note 4 and your router off for a couple of minutes. Now turn them on again and retry the connection.
Take a look in Settings > Power saving and make sure that low battery life isn’t restricting your Wi-Fi.
Try forgetting the connection, choose your router in Settings > Wi-Fi and Forget. Enter the details again.
Try the free Wi-Fi Analyzer app and see if the channel you’re using is crowded. Change to another channel if it is.
Take a look at the settings on your router. Make sure that MAC filtering isn’t on, or add your Note 4’s MAC address, which you’ll find in Wi-Fi > Settings > Advanced.
Make sure that your router firmware is fully up to date.

Thanks. Funny you should post this, I read it right after I posted here and was planning to check out the MAC filtering when I get home. Weird thing is this: My phone connects to the main router fine, with zero issues of any kind. We have a WiFi-extender by NetGear. My phone will connect to it, but will not exchange any data. My computers, HTC One, and my wife's old S5 all connected to the extender fine. Now, neither of our N4's will properly connect to it. It certainly doesn't seem like an issue with the extender, but that's not to say it isn't possible, and I sure hope that it is and not an inherent problem with the phone. Will try some troubleshooting tonight and report back.
I've run into an issue with the wifi since getting my Note 4 last Friday. The problem I am having is it will connect to my wifi network without any issues, but after a while (it could be 2~8 hours) my note4 will lose it's connection to the wifi router and not be able re-connect until I reboot the phone. I have a dual band ASUS router with the latest firmware, when the note4 craps on itself with the wifi, the wirelessG connection will keep asking for the password and come up with "authentication error" and the wirelessN connection will come up with "unable to obtain ip address"
When the note 4 has this issue, my router log shows "Dec 9 16:54:28 kernel: eth1: received packet with own address as source address", checking further into the logs on the router, this didn't start popping up until I got the note 4. I am hoping it is a software issue, Verizon did however confirm that there is an update coming out the the next few days to address a wifi performance issue...
I have other wireless devices that use both wireless G & N and don't have any issues, i've rebooted the router a few times even though that is not the problem. I even hooked up a different router to see if that would help, but the same problem is still there.
After playing around with different settings, I have yet to find a solution to this problem. Verizon support has me running the phone in safe mode to see if it's an app causing the problem.....
Are you by any chance using 5 GHz on your router? I am having issues with 5 GHz connections and no issues with 2.5.

Hey all
I have a T-800 with IronRom on it. Everything was working fine for almost 2 months now. Starting yesterday, my tab is unable to find my 2.4GHz WiFi, but is still able to find/connect to my 5GHz WiFi or other 2.4GHz networks (public hotspots).
Other devices see the 2.4GHz network fine, and can connect to it. I've just rebooter the router and payed closed attention to what happened. Once the router is online, i can briefly see the 2.4GHz network, i tried to connect to it and my tablet asks for the wpa2 key. When i entered it (it's pretty long) i clicked connect, but the network was already listed "out of reach" by then.
Some more info:
I have rebooted all related devices
Tablet CAN connect to 5GHz network
Tablet CAN'T connect to 2.4GHz network (out of reach)
Other devices (laptop, phones) CAN connect to the 2.4GHz network
Tablet CAN connect to other 2.4GHz network
I have tried a Wifi Analyzer app, that also can't see the 2.4GHz network.
What could cause this or how could i diagnose/fix this issue? Any help greatly appreciated!
Thanks a bunch in advance!
Perhaps some program you've installed recently has made changes to the system or settings that's prohibiting connection?
You seemed to have established there is nothing wrong with your network, and even the device can use both bands...
I would backup, reset the device and see if its still an issue.

Thanks for your reply! I have performed a reset and the problem persists. I have contacted Samsung support and they say it's a hardware issue and i should send it in.
The repairs are outsourced to Dynafix (can't post URL because I'm a new user). Any idea on how they handle rooted tablets with a custom OS? Should i tell them upfront?
You should get it as far back to stock as you can... ie - odin a stock rom.
If its indeed a hardware issue then it shouldn't matter but don't give them that reason.
I managed to fix the problem with the suggestion of a friend. My 2.4GHz connection's channel setting on the router was set to automatic. I assigned it a fixed channel and it immediately popped back into my available networks. Weird problem, but I'm glad i didn't send it in for repairs because they would've charged me for it.
Had the same problem and it was rom related. I changed the rom and coud enable auto channel again in my router...

I just got this phone yesterday and so far I just cannot get it to stay connected to my network. No other devices are having this problem. It basically just seems to constantly connect and disconnect from the wifi and also seems to constantly search for other connections as well. I've tried factory reset, cache clearing(which never works as it just red triangle error's me), reset the router, tried to change settings in phone itself but nothing seems to fix it and it's making it impossible to use at home. Anyone have any suggestions?
Same thing here. I went in and turned off all the wifi in battery power saving exclusions. Ain't been home long enough to try though.
I'm having this same issue! My prior daily (S9+) didn't have this issue, and my Pixel 2XL doesn't have this issue. I could be right next to the router and it still does this. Doesn't seem to matter if I'm at home, work, parents house, or a cafe, it still randomly loses connection. Same with my Gear S3. Just randomly loses connection. It's pretty annoying, and I hope they offer a software fix. Yes, I factory reset the phone and it still occurs.
I noticed this only with the 5 GHz band... I will contact LG about it today...
Yeah, I'm having the same issue. My router broadcasts both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz on the same SSID. Last I'd heard, Android wouldn't connect to 5 GHz in that circumstance, and my G7 appears to continue that trend.
But it still disconnects from the network all the time.
Sadly I have the same issue. I have different SSID for 2.4 and 5Ghz band, and as devil_tear says it's fails only with the 5ghz band. I did a factory reset but issue stills there.
Did you found a fix for this issue?
Had the same problem. Solved by enabling wifi on the battery saving power exclusions in the battery menu.

Had the same problem, was burning through my 4G data at a rate much faster than on my Google Pixel.
So far, adding wifi to the power saving exclusion has seemed to fix the issue. Thank you!

Great suggestion
Tried the suggestion here for adding WiFi to exclusion. WiFi on 5ghz still disconnects and reconnects every few seconds. Only way to keep it connected is putting it on 2.4ghz.
Tried the suggestion with reboots, factory reset, adding WiFi to exclusion and then connecting to the network. My g7 will just not work with it.

Have seen this also, in my case it happens when I am a bit far from the router, it may be the router not having a strong stable connection so the phone see it doesn't have internet. In the points I experience that I have a 5Ghz connection of 0-2Mb but I have maybe 2 bars of connection. Share your opinions to try to understand the problems.

For me I would say it happens more if I have 2-3 bars but nonetheless it happens even 3ft away from the router eventually. what's odd is my note 5 stays connected, my computer, and other phone stay connected on the 5ghz band. All these devices are in the same location so I'm pretty dumbfounded especially considering this is a newer phone than the note 5 lol. I hope it can be fixed with an ota update

I have the same issues. I sent back the first phone for a replacement thinking it was the issue. When the second phone arrived it was working perfectly and then it happened again.
I noticed this happened after I took whatever software update was offered. I went as far to switch providers with different equipment (fibe to cable) but same result.
Made specific 2.4ghz SSID for LG G7 and no issues.
I've never seen this happen. And my laptop and LG are using the same 5 ghz signal.
I think I remember the G6 doing this though

Just came back from my dad's house and I know it's a short test, however he has an Archer a7 connected after his dedicated provided box. I wonder if that can fix the issue?
I have the same issue.
it connects to 2.4Ghz networks fine but the range is very limited when I move to another room wifi reception decreases a lot. However my wife`s S9+ and my oneplus 6 works fine.
Main problem is when I connect to 5Ghz network it starts disconnecting and reception is even worse than 2.4Ghz. S9 and Oneplus connection is still fine at 5Ghz
I tried to change the 5ghz channels on the router but no luck and I exclude the WIFI from battery saving apps still didn`t work.
I have to use 2.4Ghz and the reception is not as good as other phones
Wifi seems stable for me, except wifi calling. That would crash at connection or even mid-call sometimes. I'd have to reboot to make or receive another call. Some sort of server error. Turned off wifi calling and no issues yet. Didn't notice Ed it anyway since 4g is really strong here.
After the newest update on my phone, taken today Oct 4th, 2018/my random WiFi disconnects haven't been happening at all on 5ghz. Also, the signal is about 3 bars larger now in the same location it used to be dropping out constantly. Hopefully it stays this way.

After the newest update on my phone, taken today Oct 4th, 2018/my random WiFi disconnects haven't been happening at all on 5ghz. Also, the signal is about 3 bars larger now in the same location it used to be dropping out constantly. Hopefully it stays this way.

I was coming in to report something similar. I've got the US T-Mo version and just got the G710TM10K update yesterday.
WiFi stability has massively improved. Disconnects are almost completely nonexistent now. I haven't noticed that the signal bar is behaving any differently, but that doesn't mean a whole lot. The update was fairly large (over 400 MB), so I could see new firmware playing a role.
Could anyone still on G710TM10G post their data from Software Info to check if the baseband has been updated? Here's mine from 10K:
