hei everyoone.
is there anyone here got some problem with wifi? my wifi router is on my living room, it using 2.4ghz wideband. my Op3t wifi connection work properly if i use it on my living room, but not if i'm using it in my room. my room is connected to the living room and i dont think distance is the problem, because my old moto X and xiaomi mi4c could properly connected to the wifi in my room.
does op3t is weaker on getting wifi signal compare to my older device?? or i got some problem with the ROM? or there is something else?? please someone help me to get rid of this problem.
i'm using stock 4.1.7 with bluspark kernel atm. i've already tried a couple custom ROM base on OOS, but have not tried aosp or lineageos base ROM yet.
i'll post some log if it necessary.
It does seem to have a weaker antenna. I noticed it right away after coming to it from the nexus 6 and other devices. I know my wifi range really well. I can tell you with in inches of where you will lose connection to my router, the 1+3 loses it at least 3 feet sooner then any device I have come across. It also will interfere with BT if you are on the outer edge of wifi range.

I can't seem to get a decent wifi signal unless i'm actually standing near the router (and even then it's 2 bars at most). I doubt it's the router (cisco linksys e2000) since my iphone and pc have no trouble staying connected while being further away. I remember having a better connection when i was using the stock rom (cm7.3 atm) so i'm guessing there's something i need to fix but im not really sure what's wrong and was hoping someone could drop some knowledge on me.

Hi there, This issue can be caused by a mismatched ROM and radio, each radio and ROM work together with a specific RIL (radio interface library) which can be flashed through recovery or CWM. You may find that the recommended radio for your ROM and the correct RIL could solve your problems.
The wifi signal on DHD is poor while comparing to other phones, I wish that we could modify its strenght.
Through a wooden wall and about 4-5 metres away the signal is around 65dBm, which is ok, but as soon as I move slightly so the the signal is going throught diagonally it drops to 80dBm instantly. That's only moving very slightly.
In my sig you can see what I'm using and so far that's the best combo I've found for a decent signal.

Even since JB, my WiFi signal is terrible. In my bedroom, my laptop gets 4 bars, my nexus gets 1. 10 feet from the router I get 3 bars. Is there s fix for this? I've searched and I can't find one.

I too get crappy wifi reception but I can't totally blame Jellybean for it. When I got my Gnex JB just came out so i did not have a lot of time to do a before and after comparison.
I just put a second router in my livingroom to help and sitting less than 10 feet I only get 3 bars on the phone. I hope we are not the only ones with this problem.
Even my GNEX has a bad reception ... I have the impression that it was better with ICS. But I would never go back. I subscribe maybe jumping out of a solution ...
I got the same problem with my GNex. No way to solve it and just let it to be what it is.
Which ROM's are you on? I'm using CM10 and have no problems with Wi-Fi signal in my apartment. Are you using 2.5 GHz or 5 GHz?
Swype'ed on my CM10 Galaxy Nexus
I am using Maddoggin's Jelly Bean Rom which was built from stock and not CM10, some people are saying that the kernel is responsible for the wifi and that the radios only handle the cellular and LTE signals hmmmm. His ROM is using the stock kernel so I may try flashing a different one to see if this helps or try different ROM altogether.
Sometimes when the phone is on the table in sleep mode, if I turn it on it will have like three or maybe four bars of wifi for a second then it drops down to two or one. Holding the phone in landscape seems to help with reception too. Maybe this is due to placement of the wifi antenna?
I have two Netgear routers in my house and I belive they are 2.4 Ghz, I have them on different channels so the signals do not overlap.
There maybe an off chance that the phone could be defective but before I head over to the Sprint store I need to do a little more investigating.
Something happened to my mobile phone. WiFi works pretty weird, I have a router with stronger antenna in my home, every single device works great with it (Pentagram Cerberus), gets stable connection even 20 meters away from it. My HTC worked OK (however the signal was very poor too) till now. At the moment it can't even find any WiFi networks while it should at least 2 (mine and neighbour's). It finds my rounter only sometimes (not everytime), when the phone is 10 cm away from the antenna at max (!!!).
What is the cause?

It could be deterioration over time. The desire is a pretty old phone, and its wifi antenna isn't as good as new.

do you inspect what are you saying?
1) router settings has been changed, like N standard, HTC Sense sometimes do not like it
2) update RADIO/clean the phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277365
3) the antenna is broken
I had the same problem. My wifi antenna wore off, and I couldn't find any WI-FI further than 1m. After I replaced it, everything was fine.

Hey, thanks for your post.
1. It's all the time set to 802.11b+g in my router, it worked quite fine before but the signal was poor too (not as poor as it is now).
2. I've got the newest radio version, about the cleaning, will do in a day or two, thanks!
3. Is the antenna removable so I could buy a new one somewhere? How does it look like?

1. with b+g my Desire is not connecting, try Mixed mode or G mode with Channel 20Mhz.
2. then check what happens when you connect to Free wi-fi or friend router.
3. i don't think that antenna is wrong, but http://www.formymobile.co.uk/desiredisassembly.php#.UmYabBCDpD8 (4 step probably may be antenna)
I managed to semi-fix my issue, the pins were unable to connect with WiFi antenna. There's also another side of this - MW5 seems to have the crappiest WiFi signal ever, tried other ROMs and the signal is much better on them, however I like MW5 much. I guess this caused by MW5's kernel - 2.6.35.14-cox-oxy - could you propose me any good replacement for it? I guess thalamus ones will do the trick but can't find them anywhere (official site does not work for me).
So I just got my Nexus 7 fhd couple days ago. I've noticed that it has very weak wifi reception. When I in the same room as router I have full signal, behind one door half signal, and behind a second 0 signal, on my laptop and iphone i get about 70% signal behind a 2nd door (it's probably only 15 feet away from the router). I'm running on Wireless N 300mbit 5GHz if it matters. I read similar thread for old N7 but didn't find any solution, wonder if anyone else have the same problem? Android 4.4.2. Thank you
Is there interference with other routers on the same channel?
Also noticed a teensy bit weaker wifi reception compared to 2012 nexus 7.

It's not a little bit, i'm 10 feet away from a router and have only half bars while all my other devices show full signal
Also i tried different ROMs
I have the opposite experience in that I get better reception with my N7 than any of my other devices. When I have had issues with Wi-Fi reception with other devices in the past, the only thing I found that would fix it was to reboot and reset the router. And oddly enough, once or twice the only thing that worked was to change the password. Hope you find a solution because this thing rips when you have a good signal.

so im using an unlocked verizon pixel XL and having wifi problem after wifi problem all of the sudden not sure if its the rom im using (pure nexus) or a verizon thing i really need help, my throughput is fine but my latency is horrible and i have no explanation for it. ive tried everythign, safe mode, clear cache, changing wifi channel, and nothing seems to be working, on both bad performance (ping) on both 2.4ghz and 5ghz. For example i speedtest when im having a latency problem my ping is always 45ms which shouldnt be a huge deal but something isnt working because when i go to play my online game the indicator is always orange with tremendous ping. im using a 5268ac att dual band gateway by the way and have tried with aftermarket routers as well with no success. When my wifi is working properly my ping is around 25ms, and thats standing right next to the router, literally...This is a brand new phone wtf
Is this happening on all wifi hotspots or just one?

I havent been anywhere else to test it but i will today but i HAVE swapped out my router with several others and had it still happening, i really hope its not a bad pixel XL because i really dont wanna RMA my brand new unlocked one and end up getting a verizon one thats unrootable and not unlockable
Did a complete clean wipe of phone and manual fastboot update of radio etc to nmf26u (im on verizon pixel xl unlocked) and then purenexus and now wifi is working like a charm, i have no idea what happened or bugged out in my initial updates and flash but the phone is working like a dream now, pure nexus 7.1.1 with elemental x kernel
