G Pad III 8.0 (V522) Slow and Dropping Wi-Fi Issue - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, recently I have noticed that my wifi speeds are dropping to around 15-30Mbps download and 10 Mbps Upload compared to what I usually get (200/20). All my other Android devices connected on the same AC Network got speeds up to 300Mbps/20Mbps and only the G pad gets 15-30 Mbps / 10 Mbps on speedtests on with the same server.
Things I have tried:
Rebooting Router
Factory Reset Router
Both enabling IPv6 and disabling
Setting a static IP on tablet
Factory Reset Tablet
I am currently using TP-LINK Archer C2600 Router.
Any Suggestions? Thanks!

G Pad / CM11 M4 wifi N speeds?

Hi, i was just wondering what kind of wifi speeds you guys have with your g pads?
I am trying to stream HD movies with a xbmc / yatse combination however the tablet keeps buffering.
If i have the tablet 1m from my router it cannot auto negotiate to more than 72mbit and if i do a test with jPerf on a computer en iPerf from markedet i cannot get more than 15 Mbit/s @ 1m and excelent signal (-20/-30dB)
If i use a dlink n port USB dongle from a laptop it gets 150Mbit/s
I have tested with 3 different routers with the same resultall setup for speed with n only, wmm, best channel and so on)
*D-link DIR-665
*Zyxel 300mbit n somthing
*Linksys EA6900
I also tried a simple download from my NAS and speedtest.net to ensure iPerf was correct.
Has anyone one experienced the same problem on CM11 or other roms?
Thanks

5ghz wifi much slower than 2.4ghz, is it just me?

so on my home network I have noticed downloads being very slow on the 5ghz wifi on the play z. I got my partners moto X play and ran the speedtest right next to my moto z play and hers gets 50mbs and I get 5mbs...
to help me trouble shoot, is anyone else experiencing this?
thanks!
I would try restarting the router or changing the channel. Keep in mind that 5GHz does not have the same range as 2.4GHz and will start dropping off and getting slower as you move away more quickly. Most of my devices slow to a crawl or drop when I move outside on 5GHz but 2.4GHz keeps trucking.

its being tested next to a moto x play so the signal isnt the issue. the router has been rebooted a few times and it makes no difference.
as I say, its only a problem on the z play and not the x play
Can you please confirm whether moto z play supports wifi AC standard?
How do you use 5 Ghz band, if not?

It does not have AC but can use 5 Ghz.
I'm having the same problem, it's pretty weird because I use wifi sweet spots to test lab speed and I can't get up to 150 Mbps but on the speed test app I can't get higher than 5 Mbps, I think it's a software thing....
Tri in wireless- Adavanced Settings
Transmission Rate: (Default: Auto)
CTS Protection Mode: (Default: Auto)
I don't have those options under advanced wifi settings !!
Maybe you need to reset the wifi settings. In the Advanced Wi-Fi choose Reset default networks.
Or Maybe you are having something that restricts your connection from the phone, things like VPN, proxy can interfere with the connection speed of the phone.

5GHz Wifi signals can not bee seen or connected to

How's it going guys? I have my Linksys router setup to 2,4 and 5ghz AC. For some reason my HTC 10 can not see the 5ghz signal along with other signals around my room. And my 2.4ghz speed is mad slow. Only getting 15mbps download when only 5' away from the router. I get 100mbps on 5ghz Ac on my PC.
Every other device I own sees and connects to the 5ghz Ac signal except my HTC 10.
Hi, I just tried to connect to my Netgear Dual Band router on the 5 GHz Band and it worked fine..possibly refresh the signals and then turn both the router and the phone on and off? But I assume you may have tried that already?

Have you tried WiFi Analyzer? I can see and connect to my Asus 5Ghz router with no issues...
Did you flash anything on the phone?
Definitely use WiFi Analyzer to configure your router/APs.
EDIT: Check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69295617&postcount=223
I think it's a radio issue. I have to update it, so I think I'm just gonna end up doing an ruu
When you go into advanced wifi settings, what does it say under "wifi frequency band?" You may have it set to 2.4 gHz only. Check that before re-flashing anything.
It's set to auto. If I set it to 5GHZ only like 2 networks show. My PC sees like 10
I use htc 10 it does not see the network at a frequency of 5 GHz on channel 149

WiFi Disconnecting Issue

Hi,
I'm on my second P2XL (Panda). Both have had issues where they constantly and apparently disconnect on Wifi.
I have a Virgin Media superhub 3 (tried turning 5ghz off), also a TP link range extender plug. Seems to happen on both devices, it disconnects when I'm right on top of the Superhub router.
Any suggestions?
Thinking it must be the router, any suggestions?
would it be worth renaming either the 2 or 5ghz ssid?
I am a wifi newb and have the hub set on factory settings.

I think you are correct on the issue being with the router, and since the repeater gets its signal from the router the repeater is likely not to blame. Changing the SSID would not help. I would first ensure your router (and repeater) is up to date with the latest firmware. My Netgear router comes out with new firmware 2-3 times per year fixing bugs. TP link offers new firmware but not very often. Another solution may be to change the channel the Wi-Fi is using. Usually set to auto, you can change both the 2.4 and 5 Ghz band channels. It could be interference from your neighbors is causing an issue. There are several Wi-Fi apps you can use to find the least congested channels in your home. WiFi Analyzer is one.
If your router is up to date and still causing problems on different channels, you should consider replacing it with a well supported model. No doubt you have used your phone on other Wi-Fi AP's and not had a problem. If you've tried the above with no success, do some research HERE to find a new router.
This is on the Android fanzine sites.

FIXED - For me, my router was pumping 2.4 & 5 ghz as same name. I renamed the 5 ghz, forgot connection on phone and connected to the "new" 5ghz.
No drops since.
Think the phone was getting confused when it was at the far reaches of the 5ghz connection.

Galaxy Note 10 Plus - Slow Wi-Fi download speeds

I have Samsung Note 10 Plus , it shows wi-fi 6 logo when connected to Asus Wifi-6 router AX88U. Sometimes, when I leave my home and come back, the Note 10 plus does connect to AX88U wifi-6 but the speed is slow (about 50 mbps on 200mbps connection). If I turn off wifi on my phone and turn it back again. I get blazing fast 226 mbps. I did check some forums and was advised to change phone wifi setting is to static IP with primary DNS to 8.8.8.8 and secondary dns as 8.8.4.4 but this does not help.
Other steps taken: I disabled Wifi-6 on my router, but issue does not go away even when wifi ac (5Ghz) is being used.
Also, I have done "forget" network on phone, restart phone, reprogram Wifi setting. No use...
Another interesting fact: I have connected Netgear R7900 (wifi ac only, Mu-mimo) in AP mode to AX88U via cat7 cable. One day, I had observed that as I entered my home, my phone had connected to the Netgear router and the download speed was 200mbps with ping of 8 milliseconds. While I was roaming in the home, I was simultaneously browsing a few websites on my phone, and I observed the phone went from Netgear to ASUS router because I could see Wi-Fi logo without the Wi-Fi 6 symbol and then as soon as it hooked to Asus, I could see Wi-Fi logo with Wi-Fi 6 symbol. All of a sudden, the download speed as tested on speed test app went down from 200 Mbps to 6 Mbps. I switched off the Wi-Fi of my phone and switched it back again. the phone then connected with ASUS router on Wi-Fi 6 and the download speed was 200mbps. So this means that my phone performs very poorly when first-time re-connected to ASUS router. Would this be an issue with my phone not receiving signals properly - because of some issue while acting like a wifi-6 client?
Can someone please advise me how to have my phone connect to router with full internet speed? This only happens if I go out of home and come back in AX88U signal range. Also is this a router issue or phone issue? All other devices in my home are wireless ac (Wifi 5) only and have no issues with Asus router. Asus customer support is pointing finger on the Note 10 plus. Please help!
From what you've described here I would say the issue lies with the assus router. Since the netgear works fine.
On reconnect maybe it's not recognizing the phone properly. When it reconnects to your phone with slow speeds have you checked the router's connected device map? (shows what devices are connected to it) does it recognize properly?

Thank you lennie for your reply. Yes, the device shows up on clients list/ device map. Router does handshake immediately but does not transmit proper speeds. Only difference here is Netgear is AP and is Wifi 5 (ac Mu-mino), whereas Asus ax88u is Wifi 6, ax, main router. So phone does talk well to Netgear but in ac mode. Phone immediately talks to Asus in ax mode but slow speeds. If there is any other way out please let me know... TIA.

Hmmm have you tried to reset network settings on your phone yet? But I seriously think it's a problem with the router and not the phone.
Does this problem only happen to the Note 10 and no other device?
Have you checked for router updates?
Do you use a private DNS service? VPN?
Do you have WiFi power saving mode enabled?

Hi lennie
I did reset network settings, including forget network>reboot> re-program wifi password. Nothing worked. Router is updated. I do not use private DNS or VPN. Not sure about power saving, all settings are default... Also; in the past I used to have Netgear R7800 as main router and R6900P as AP, such incidents did not occur. Not sure where the problem lies. While contacting respective customer care, Asus blames Samsung and vice versa.

FYI for everyone - I just got on phone, my 4th time with Asus. They finally agreed that one more user was facing same issue so they have taken feedback seriously and are addressing this connectivity issue via another firmware update. No idea when this would be released. Asus asked me to return to original seller (an individual on eBay as it is within 30 days of purchase) or send to Asus for service. If service, then I will have to pay for shipping and arrange for a temporary router myself. Hence returning to seller on eBay. So we do have issues where router will not talk well with certain devices!

OK thought so. Glad to hear that they've taken your issue. There's a reason people don't buy Asus products anymore like they use to especially motherboards. They tend to do some things right and others just wrong which you usually don't find out until it's too late.

Thanks lennie - any suggestions for a good router? I have one R7800 acting like AP, handles about 15 devices on 2.4Ghz (IoT - smart plugs, 3 wifi cameras @720p, not too much data load; and AX88U main router that handles about 8 devices, where most work is done, like iPads, Cellphones, Laptops on 5Ghz. I need to choose one main new router as I want to get rid of AX88U. Shall I get another R7800 as I did not see any performance difference between Wifi 5 & 6 on a 200mbps bandwidth - or I have shortlisted Wifi-6 RAX80 Netgear as main router. Any advice? TIA!

Tell you the truth I wouldn't know. But I would go with what works, if the R7800 are works then I don't see why not.

I got informed via another forum subscription that a new AX88U firmware update was out.......
It also happened around the day I was in a bitter situation as I was waiting for seller on eBay to accept my return request. He is a good guy who did not use the router on Ax devices. Now that I have purchased from him and using it on ax client, we came across this issue. Immediately upon reading this note, I updated the router firmware. I then went outside my home for a short walk but when I came back, my cellphone still had poor download speed with router upon reconnecting on 5Ghz. I explained this new observation and sent screenshots of speedtest and the seller kindly accepted my return request. Sadly this update did not sort out my issue.
But here is the good part: I had purchased a new AX88U at full price from Amazon. Initially I noted my 2.4 Ghz speed was very poor 4-25 mbps even when "6" was seen in wifi logo, means cellphone and router were on some new signal standard. With this update, I am getting 7 ms ping and 120-130 mbps download speed (same speeds on 2.4 Ghz with the "faulty" router described above). So this update did really speed up the internet speeds most evidently seen on 2.4 Ghz frequency. Also worth noting: I am not having the "poor download speed upon reconnect" with the brand new router that I just got.
Hello from Germany
This is a bug i already noticed and spent hours and hours with my Note 10 Plus and Asus AX88U !!! Now after 2 Month i give up. If you have 2 same 5GHZ Networks in your house (for better coverage) with the same SSID you can
see what is happening. My Internet Provider Speed is 200 down and 80 up. When first connected to the Asus Wifi 6 Router everything is fine. Than when you go one floor up you will get connected to the Other (i have tested both Asus AI and also as normal Access point via Ethernet ) Router and everything is ok. But than when you go back and connect again with the Asus AX88u in Wifi6 the Download speed on my Note 10 Plus is capped at 4-7 mbps down and 10 up !!! from 200/80. This is only affecting on the new Asus AX88u and Note 10 Plus and it doasn't metter if you switch Wifi6 or use Wifi5 AC . I tested also without 160 Mhz and every other mode nothing is changing. The sync on the Note 10 Plus is 1200 mbps on 5 GHZ so the most possible sync between note 10 device and the Router !! But after you connect to the same SSID on other channel in your house you will have this bug when returning to the Asus AX88u ! Only way is WIFI off and ON and all Speed are back again on Note 10. I have written to Samsung but no one replyed. With other devices like IPAD Pro 12.9 2018 or some Xiaomi devices everything works fine. Only Note 10 Plus is having this Bug . Most of the People will not notice it because almost all services will run fine for them with 10 mbps but i do because i always have my note 10 with Network Data in Statusbar and want to know all the time my network speed etc.
Sry for my English but i hope you understand. Definitly a AX88u Bug !
UPDATE: I tested with new Firmware from 25 of November they seemed to fixed it !!!
Update again : The Bug is still there! Almost every time when u roam in your house and reach again the wifi 6 router from Asus.
Again I have two wifi in my house with same ssid and different channels. It doesn't matter if you put the second router in access point mode or normal router(connected via ethernet cat 6 to Asus) . I also tryed a second Asus Router in Asus Mesh mode wired and over WiFi. Still same behavior.
When first connected to the Asus rt ax 88u with my note 10 plus everything is fine. The wifi sync is 1200 mbps when in same room and I get all of my isp bandwidth 200/80 from my provider. When I move upstairs and reach the second Hotspot the phone automatically switches to the other router (also tested different once). Also here everything is OK you get the full bandwidth up and down. But as soon as you return to the wifi 6 coverage of the rt ax88u the wifi speeds are dropping to almost 4-7 mbps! Down and maximum 20-30 up. Really strange behavior the sync is normal with 1200 mbps but you get no bandwidth! When moving up to the other network everything works fine again.
Also tryed with switching of ax mode but same problem with AC mode. This is a huge bug with Galaxy note 10 plus and Asus AX 88u Router
I recently acquired the Tenda NOVA MW6 mesh network, and have noticed wifi speed issues only with my note 10, not with roku 4k, not with my box S, not with galaxy tab s6, only with note 10, my cablemodem, it has the option wifi, also had problems, also only with note 10 ....

Same here, also the Tenda NOVA MW6, and also only speed problems with my Note 10. The reason why t¡is because Note 10 connects to 2.4 Ghz network that seems to be much slower than 5Ghz. Sometimes, out of the blue, Note 10 connects to 5Ghz wifi and then no speed problems at all. I'm trying to find out how to force 5Ghz connection or how to turn off 2.4 Ghz on Note 10, but Google disabled that options in last Android version. So, there seems to be no solution, maybe rooting could solve the issue.
