[Q] wifi extremly slow - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I have some serious problems with my home wifi.
I'm on ViperOne 3.1.0 connected to a FritzBox 6360 and a 32MBit internet connection.
But I have the problem, that the wifi connection is extremely slow. In the FritzBox web interface the HTC One M8 is displayed with a 1 MBit connection even if I stand right in front of my router with a perfect signal. So I think exactly this is the problem for my slow connection.
After a reboot of my mobile the wifi connection is fine for some minutes, I think till the phone goes to sleep, after that same game again.
I played with the wifi optimization and the standby option in the wifi advanced options but with no luck.
Other clients like my old HTC Sensation or an iPhone 5c or my Laptop are working fine with the wifi, so i believe the phone is the problem not the router.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

[Q] Help with wireless connection

Yesterday my router lost broadband connection... Yes it's BT, so happens almost weekly.
Right while I was changing from Pinky's 1.8 rom to OD 3.5.0.
After the connection came back, my Mac and xbox are working fine, both on wired/wireless connections. But this is the first time I've been unable to reconnect with my Desire, even when I've wiped/nandroid restored the old rom.
It connects on the desire. But in the router config (bthomehub.home), it says it hasn't connected. I refresh a couple times, and 1 out of 5 refreshes it says I'm connected.
Then drops again.
As no other devices have been affected, is this a problem with my Desire settings? or the router?
Is there a way I can diagnose the issue?

[Q] HTC EVO 4G WiFi locks up since FreshEvo 4.1.1.0

I have an HTC EVO 4G running FreshEvo 4.1.1.0
The WiFi was working fine without a hitch until recently. It seems that since I upgraded to FreshEvo 4.1.1.0 and updated the radios with the patch, that this is when the problem started.
Now, the WiFi connection "locks up" intermittently and I have to reboot my TrendNet TEW-633GR router so that the phone will connect to it again at least for awhile.
The symptoms are: The WiFi connection with my home router will be fine for awhile. Then, it will not work.
I still get an IP address from the router and the WiFi settings says it's connected. But the connection doesn't work until I reboot the router. But the router isn't really the problem because other phones and my laptop can connect to the router even if the HTC cannot.
To the best as I can tell, the WiFi connection on the HTC locks up when:
A) I run the Roku Remote Control app and something unexpected happens like the app does a force close. The Roku Remote app uses Telnet, I believe.
B) I'm connected by WiFi at home, then leave and the phone switches to 3G. When I come back home, the WiFi between my phone and my router is locked up. However, if I connect to WiFi at another location, it works fine at the other location. Also, I can still connect to my home router with WiFi from my laptop or another phone.
Does anyone have this problem too, or a solution?
Thanks

I would have a go at flashing an alternative radio ROM onto the EVO first. This should be pretty simple if you've already changed ROMs and have a custom recovery.

[Q] Odd tether problem

Hi,
Since i've had the One X i've had nothing but problems with tethering. I've tried wifi, bluetooth and USB. All seem to suffer from the same problem.
The problem being that the phone will have a working mobile internet connection (I can use the phone to talk to the internet without problem) but my netbook cannot talk to the internet. The problem is definitely not with my netbook or the connectivity between the phone and the netbook as I can ping the phones IP address just fine.
It's almost like when tether is enabled some sort of forwarding or bridging between wifi/bluetooth/usb and mobile internet should be enabled but isn't being.
Then, totally randomly, it will just start working fine.
Sometimes disconnecting mobile internet and reconnecting fixes it. Sometimes enabling airplane mode and then disabling it fixes it. But most of the time I literally have to just wait until the phone decides to start forwarding my packcets to the internet.
I travel by train to/from work and used to tether my HTC Desire using wifi or usb. It would generally be useable for the whole journey except when I lost signal entirely or when the phone switched between Orange and T-Mobile whilst I was in the middle of something.
I guess my main questions are:
Is anyone else having this problem?
Can anyone think of a way I can try to debug what's happening?
Does anyone have a possible solution?
Thanks

Try resetting your APN setting back to default. This should fix the issue. You may have to do this everytime at OTA update is applied.

[Q] More Wifi questions...

I have a N7100 and I am also having wifi connectivity issues
I read the old wifi connectivity thread but my issue doesn't seem to be the same.
.I have a broadband wifi router which I also use an iPad, win Xp laptop, HTC Wildfire S and Motorola defy through, all of which have been fine (using WEP encryption)
)Unfortunately the note II seems to connect but then doesn't access the Internet.
The phone's wifi page shows connection. It connects then receives and IP address but then the alert comes up that there is no Internet access. I also use fing which says that there is no wifi network.
I''ve downloaded the apps wifi manager and wifi analyser to try and get to the bottom of it but they both say I have good signal strength and are connected.
Wifi analyser showed there was a bit of crossover from another AP router next door so I changed the channel to give clear air between us. I then reconnected all the devices and they all work -apart from my new Note.
My question so are 1)is there any more i can do to fix it. 2)where should I look to find the logs which might let me diagnose it a bit better . I should add that sometimes it just works and can browse and download as normal, but most of the time it doesn't.
I started to have trouble connecting to wifis few days ago, it says that signal is very strong i even see full bars and it stops on "containing IP adress" and then shows up window that signal is poor and doesnt connect, but wifi is working my friend next to me was connected, its in a bar and like 2 weeks ago i was able to connect to that very same wifi, very disappointing, no clue what could be wrong

[Q] WiFi router problem

Hello,
I have some strange problem - whenever my HTC 1x is connected to my WiFi connection, after some time it kills internet connection for all connected devices. WiFi connection stays perfect but internet connection becomes lost until I disconnect my phone and reconnect all other devices. This happens on any internet connection, not only on my personal. Maybe someone has any ideas how can this be fixed?
