Is the G1's Wireless Really 802.11g? - G1 Android Development

I have my router setup in my den, less than a foot away from the outside window. If I goto my car in the driveway, 75ft (max) from the router itself, I don't even pick up a weak signal. Why is this? I feel like I'm running on 802.11b with the range I get. Speeds seem to be at G speeds but still, the distance seems really false. Anyone else experiencing this?

802.11b and 802.11g have the same effective range.

i have the same issue. i have a linksys router, but it might be crap. Ill swap and see what happens

@coolb, sorry, meant to type a, just had b still in my head from looking up the g1's specs.
I have a Belkin N1 Wireless Router, most definatly not a POS And I mean it can pick it up from other rooms, but it seems when i go out of my house it just says no to me.
Either way I'm still under 40m from it, I wouldn't expect any more than 15m, maybe 20m, and like i said its right next to a huge bay window that I'm in direct sight of.

Try changing your router's channel or something. Maybe too much interference.

i have a belkin b/g and get no or 1 bar of wifi signal in my house. my buddy has the same basic router, but the n model and my meter is full and the connection was fast. I am definitely getting an N router in a week or so. i havent had any problems with the last couple of belkin routers i have had, so it will prolly be them.

I have a belkin n1 vision router, and i get signal down the street, about 50 feet away.

i have 3 routers, a 2wire gateway, a crappy netgear and a linksys, and on all 3 sometimes i get great signal sometimes i get low signal, i think the wifiradio no the g1 reacts based on battery life, i could be wrong but its just random like that... prob something that will be fixed on future firmware updates.

It can be anything not just the G1 but what is around, between you and the router, which way the antenna's are pointing, what is near the router. Honestly... I had a microwave between the router and one desktop and it always had issues even when the microwave was off... I moved it and signal came back and no problems. So just because it is off it could still impact the router.

i cant get any wifi network even from 2 feet away.

I had the same problem with my linksys wrt54gs till I went to do some searches about firmware on it. I came across a free firmware site that replaces linksys original firmware and worked great after I installed it. It was fairly easy to install and a big community for help incase you come across some issues. the website is http://dd-wrt.com. I usually had to reset my router once a week cause of failure to connect issues, but since the change I yet have not to reset my router and the signal is stronger. Its been two months now since.

Go to a computer connected to you router preferable wired and connect to you router(by typing its ip address in browser) it might ask you for a username & pass, you can looked it up online ie google linksys admin password. Usually its admin and there's no password or admin admin etc. Then change some of the settings around until you get it to work . Mess around with the security and the frequency. That's what did it for me.

I have problems with the G1's WiFi as well, it refuses to stay connected for more than 10 seconds at a time to my uni wifi. It'll constantly disconnect and reconnect... I have to turn off the wifi to get any internet usage out of this thing. It works fine with my home router, and my laptop and old winmo phone connect fine to the school network. No idea what's wrong

Wifi SLower than should be..

I have a linksys wifi N router at home and my laptop connects at around 144mbps, however my phone only connects at around 72mbps..
Also my laptop always sits on my coffee table which is about 15' from my router (through one wall) and has excellent signal. But my phone usually only has good signal in the same spot. It only usually lights up like two of the wifi indicators.
Does everyone else have this issue? Are the wifi chips just not strong in the phone or what?
My laptop is currently saying that it is recieving at 54mbps, my mesmerize is showing the same speed. Although my laptop is stating that I have excellent strength, and my phone is showing fair strength. I think the wifi is only so-so in this phone, I rooted last night and just got wifi tethering going. With the phone broadcasting a hostspot next to the laptop it only gave a fair signal strength. I'm not sure if the strength of a wifi hotspot has anything to do with the recieving end of the signal though.

I've had this issue with both my droid and my blackberry (when I used my blackberry). I think that the wifi capabilities in phones are not as good as they are in computers.
but the reason I'm asking this is this phone is supposed to have wifi N radio in it.. Older phones only had G antennas which are only capable of 54mbps.. wifi N is theoretically capable of up to 300mbps, I've never seen anything actually connect at that speed, but it would seem that my phone which is brand new should atleast connect at the same speed as a 2 year old wifi N laptop???

If your router is only G that's the max speed you will get?
Wifi is a pain in general to troubleshoot, as there could be many, many reasons why it is slow or not working at all.
General questions to be asked are:
Do you have security enabled wifi?
What kind of encryption are you using?
How many devices are connected to the network? (Wired or wireless)
Is the router set to send a wireless N signal? (most routers have that optioned, but not always running as most devices are not wireless N compatible)
I've had my phone connected at several wifi's (I travel a lot for work and am in hotels all the time) and my connection speed varies. At home I have great connection and speed test to 5megs a second download (wireless N--it connects) currently at a hotel in Colorado, 1480kbps download (wireless G)
I still stick by my thoughts as far as the wifi on the phones will never be as good as the wifi in a computer, be it a laptop or a desktop. Phones just don't have the battery power to hold a super strong/fast wifi signal.
I have wifi speed problems also but my first gen ipod touch does not seem to have issues

yes, the router is set to wifi N or actually it's set to all!!! I have security enabled..
There's only two devices running wifi (laptop/cell phone)
I get fast download speeds like 5000kbps down/2500kbps up when using the speedtest.net app..
But when I go to wifi settings and click on my router once it's connected whether I have Good (usually) or excellent it's only connected to my router at 72Mbps.. I have a static IP set for it..
I guess mobile phone wifi chips just aren't up to par with laptop chips

Those are my sentiments exactly. Even with it not being as fast, it's plenty fast for everything I need it to do, but 3g is fast enough for me generally. I only connect to wireless when I'm not in good cell service.

Cant take the WIFI issue anymore as I think its Hardware

The design is to blame for the wifi issue. IMO the G2x rebooting problem is less severe than this. I use wifi 90% of the time and ive had 3 units which all had this issue.
The others that dont, I dont know how you got lucky, or if you got a bad ass N router and thats the trick, but I cant take it. I cant even play a online FPS game in my room without losing signal. Anyone want to prove me wrong in that there are a few good ones? and if so please post a video?
Death grip here also. I guess I'll just have to live with it.
However, there is one good thing. HTC can release a cover with a design that won't have the issue (they won't, but I hope there will be some 3rd party ones)

"Deathgrip"? WTF is that. the iPhone disgusts me, thanks for this.. now it's running rampant all over the internet even when it doesn't make sense.
There is obviously a problem with the WiFi signal strength and yes it's a design/hardware issue. Exchanging the phone won't fix the problem.
I solved it by moving up a WiFi router in my room that repeats the WiFi signal from my main router. I had the secondary router already running DD-WRT software which is required for this type of thing.
Why didn't you just continue your other thread? 2 about the same thing is a bit much
No deathgrip here, I've tried and tried. Dunno what to say Brah. Works the same with my N router and my G router, Perfectly.

It's got to be ground issue.
yeah. i have been with mine for 2 weeks and since about just a couple of hours ago the wifi wont work. it was working fine all day then i was going to check fb and it said that there was no connection. it clearly had full signal. i restarted the phone and worked well. then later i was going to access the camera app directly from the lock screen and it froze, it wont do anything. pulled the battery and turned on the phone. after turning on the phone i turned on the wifi and it will not connect. it detects the signals and tells you all the info about it but it wont connect. it stays in a loop saying obtaining ip address, disconnected and scanning and then goes back again to obtaining ip address and so on. i have done 2 hard resets and restarted the router and nothing.btw the router is in the same room just a couple of feet from me.
EDIT : i think i jump the gun too fast. tested my ps3 thru the wireless network and it connects like 50% of the time. again the ps3 is in the same room as the router. went to my cousins house and the phone conected to the wireless effortless on the first try. i dont know if it is the phone or the router.i dont know what to think anymore.
The Sensation doesn't have brilliant WiFi reception and can't hold on to a weak signal if you hold the device, whereas something like a laptop could.
But with a good signal it does work well and for me that's a fair trade off at present. Yes it could be better, but is there a perfect device.
Typing this in Starbucks at present over WiFi and yes in landscape, and I even have my fingers covering the back of the device
Full signal strength. Same at home.
I tried this in another Starbucks, I lost connection every time in landscape mode, returned in portrait, that has been the only time that I could recreate this death grip issue.....

I've seen a few issues lately with the Cisco/Linksys E1000 routers and wifi. 3 out of the 5 i installed in the past 6 months kept dropping wifi,even right next to it. Probably not what you have, but just in case, i thought i would mention it. At $50-$60 they've been a popular model lately.
I am using a netgear n router and I still have signal in the basement and second floor (router is on the first floor)..I haven't noticed any WiFi problems but I have only had the phone 3 days...but I use WiFi calling all the time..
Sensation/G2x Best of Both Worlds
Stop posting threads about this. The Sensation has an alleged WiFi problem. We get it. Unless you have a LEGIT fix for it, don't post about it.

[Q] Wifi at home uses more battery than at work and 3g?

I have only done this for 2 days so it is hardly scientific but I noticed that for some reason when the infuse is at home on wifi it won't stay asleep. It divides the time between 800mhz and deep sleep. When at work it will stay asleep probably 95% of the time while on wifi. The signal strength is about the same according to wifi analyzer. Is my router chatting with it more than work? Neighbors wifi signal competing? I am stock and rooted just last night. The next thing I planned to do was load better battery stats to try to see what is eating up the battery at home. Maybe change the channel? I think work was 6 and I am using 11. I also noticed if I turn wifi off at home and use 3g it uses less and stays asleep.
It does sound like some interference, I would try changing the channel on your router to the same as your work's.
I think I figured it out. Apparently my android devices hate WEP. I know I shouldn't be running WEP but my neighbor is running open so I figured people would go after him first. Anyway after changing to open or WPA the infuse and transformer both sleep about 80% of the time with wifi always on.
Wrong again! All was fine until I added my other wireless devices back. The android devices then went back to not sleeping. Searched xda and it appears the dlink dir-655 that I have tends to do this. Strange thing is that it behaves as long as my windows computers are not connected via wireless. Any suggestions on a router with gigabit ports?
Netgear WNDR3700.
Thanks. I saw this one on newegg but the last 10-20 reviews weren't great. I assume you have or used it? Are you using stock or alternative firmware?

Stock firmware. It works well, has great coverage. I currently have three in use here at the house (fairly complex linked setup for auto failover to two ISPs and bridging) Never a problem with any of them.
Sounds like Netgear finally got their **** together. I've had many Netgear routers plagued with wacky firmware problems like shutting off DNS access because it decided the computer was infected with malware for requesting DNS too often. (affected 3 completely different Netgear routers).
However even if the stock firmware gives you problems, I believe the 3700 is very well supported by DD-WRT. I'm running DD-WRT in access-point-only mode on a 3000 or 3200 right now (I forget the exact model, it's not a 3700). As soon as I bother to buy some antennas it's getting replaced with a Ubiqiti Rocket M5 though.
Thanks I assume you have some windows devices hooked to them as well? Like I said the dir-655 works great until I fire up the laptop. One other report was some HP software is constantly polling so i will try to delete all that and maybe a few other settings but most threads have no solution.
Linux, Mac (Lion and Snow Leopard), Windows (Vista and 7), iPad, iPhone, Android, Wii, Samsung BD, Sony BD, Slingbox, all connected and functioning.
Can you set DTIM on that router? Just curious what it was set at on that router. I fiddled with that on the dlink but couldn't find a setting the tablet liked. It got better but never went to sleep like it should.
Thanks for the recommendation. I swapped out this weekend and have seen greatly improved sleep when I leave the devices idle.....over 90%
Had an issue with attached devices list being blank. There are a bunch of links on the internet about it but no solutions. For whatever reason it just started working 2 days later? Anyway, so far so good.
Thanks!

Unusable wifi

I'm loving my z3 but for the life of me I cannot get a tidy wifi connection.it doesn't drop the actually connection but just freezes or slows down to an unusable amount.it's not my wifi as I have tested my note 3 on the same connection and it's the same on other networks.does anyone else have this problem or a solution

I am struggling with Wifi speeds on mine. I am having to switch to 4g regularly.
I am not too worried yet as I have 8gb data, but eventually i'll be worried as it runs out lol/
The speed tests show a good speed and ping, but it disconnects or slows down/freezes a lot.
I'm waiting on updates.
Thanks for the reply.I get data fine over 4G too.the chappy wifi is annoying as I have wifi everywhere I go...but no 4G signal at home

Confirmed, same experienced here.
Didn't the z1 have this problem
That may depend on the router or its settings. Had the same "freeze" issue when connected to my AVM 7490 router set to use channel 100 for 5GHz. Ever since I changed it to channel 48 no more such problems so far.
My bluetooth is similarly awful, in both range and functionality.
WiFi constantly drops and freezes, always has a weak connection compared to my other devices.
Sony have always cheaped out on wireless chips for any of its hardware products, especially things like playstation products (PS4 wifi is the worst I've ever seen), but I didn't expect it for a £500 smartphone!
Ditto. Great 4G on a 10GB cap.
But shocking wifi. It won't connect to I my router half the time, and the other half drops the connection after 10 minutes.
Out of various devices it's the only one, and I've had more devices on.
I'll change the chanel, clear dhcp allocations and usual stuff and see if there is any difference

It seems to be random. My mate has a launch day model like me, and his WiFi is excellent to his 6 year old Sky wireless G router.
I have the newest homehub, one of the best rated routers on the market right now, and the connection from my PS4 to it is incredibly unstable. Every online game lags horrendously, especially BF4. Plus on my 80mb connection it allows for 3MB/s downloads at most. With an wired connection, no lag at all, and the download speed hits max every time.
The same thing seems to apply to the Z3. So its a sony thing. My first Z3 the wifi and BT were unusable. 3rd Z3, and wifi is the best I've ever used on a mobile device, and I havent even connected to my AC network yet to try. Bluetooth I've yet to try though.

AVM Fritz!Box here, newest model, got it when I moved because I'm on a business contract, even though I didn't want it. Has a multiuser NAS, SmartHome and whatnot, and one app for everything.
But when on WiFi with my MacBook Pro, ping times sometimes go up to over 250 ms, then back down to the usual 12. I have no idea why, it doesn't happen when connected to it via Ethernet. Bandwidth itself never seemed to be an issue though, and the Z3 performs great with it though.
TL;DR: Trying a different router can make a huge difference.
I was having the same wifi issues...my network was saved, I kept re typing my password thinking maybe I entered it in incorrectly but kept getting the "Authentication Failed" message. I was able to get the phone connected to my home wifi buy simply hitting the "Forget" option...then it automatically read the IP address and accessed the network...smh hopefully this helps for Everybody else....or some at least

Question Terrible Wi-Fi

Hello everyone,
Is anyone of you experience terrible Wi-Fi performance as well?
In our house we have one main router on the ground floor, one more in the 1st floor (no mesh) and an access point in the attic for smart home devices.
When I'm in the garden I can only see the access point and the ground floor router. When I'm connected to the ground floor router the signal is very bad and keeps on disconnecting even though the distance is maybe 15 meters with only one wall in between. I cannot even see the network from the first floor router.
With my OnePlus 9 Pro I was able to see and connect to it, even though the router is on the other side of the house.
Another thing to mention is, that with the OnePlus I could see 10+ networks from surrounding neighbour's and with the Samsung it's only 2.
Im quite happy with the device, but this is really bothering me. I'm not using some crazy case or sth, just the Samsung clear one.
Thanks for reading, any thoughts?
You didn't say if you was on 2G or 5G? Have tested both? What Routers are they? Hard to help without more details about your setup. I have a Netgear AC1750 Router and 2G is crap at around 50mbps on Speed Test and 5G is much better at 250mbps. But it's a single story house with just the sole Router at one end.

I have separate networks for 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz. 2.4 is better for range and my internet is only 50mbit so speed doesn't really matter to me. Main router is a fritzbox and the second router is from some cheap brand. The setup shouldn't really matter though because it is still working fine with my OnePlus.

That's still kinda vague. What router models are they? Also, if you're running multiple routers, you're going to have problems. In a non-mesh environment, the second router should be configured as either an access point, or as an extender.
You could also be having an interference problem. Either between your routers and AP or from external interference from any neighbors' networks.
In any case, you'd be better served by swapping out your current equipment and switch to a mesh system. I use Google's Nest Wifi with one router and three mesh access points. However, there are several other mesh systems that work well.

Thank you for your comment.
The main router is a AVM FRITZ!Box 7590 AX (Amazon) and the secondary is a cheap Tenda AC6 AC1200 (Amazon). Having multiple routers in a a non-mesh environment shouldn't really be a problem. The Tenda is connected via LAN interface, providing it's own network with its own SSID. It's only for a few devices very close by.
I know there can occur problems due to interferences, but I didn't think it was a problem because the Samsung is the only device having issues. I can try messing with the bands, but honestly I don't think it's going to change anything.

Your setup overly complicated. You are essentially running three SSIDs (One for the FRITZiBox, one for the Tenda, and one for the attic AP). Either reconfigure the Tenda as an access point, or pull it out completely. The problem seems to be the handoff between your primary and secondary router. Your primary router should be able to handle the 1st and 2nd floors easily.
Another question. How many smart home (IoT) devices are connected? The Tenda is capable of only 20 devices. Since the Tenda is upstairs, it's going to have better range than the downstairs router (there is a reason why people tend to place antennas higher up). The AP in the attic is not a router and if it is connected to the Tenda via LAN, the Tenda may be running short on capacity. Since it is higher up, your S22U is probably trying to connect to that device.
The way I see it, you have three options:
1. Install a mesh setup. You have one router, with two mesh points (one on the 2nd floor, one in the attic) running one SSID on both 5GHz and 2GHz bands.
2. Remove the Tenda and move your AP to the 2nd floor. The AP can easily handle the smart home devices, and provide WiFi to the second floor and attic. It will also reduce you down to two SSIDs.
3. Remove the Tenda, move the FRITZiBox to the second floor and connect it to your internet modem (or whatever device you get internet through) via LAN (you said the LAN is already run between 1st and 2nd floors). Connect the attic AP to the FRIZTiBox (via LAN). That should give you enough WiFi coverage and reducing to two SSIDs.
1 billion issues can cause wifi problem....
1) airport\military base near you
2) powerfull microwave
3) neighbor on the same channel
4) device power management
5) bad case (bad plastic - put in microwave...if it heats its BAD)
6) bad antenna inside of device (return it to factor)
8) in-wall powerline 240v
etc...

Running an Asus RT-AC68U router. I get good 5Ghz signal in every room, the basement, the garage and in the car behind the garage.
Not sure what the issue is but it could be your device.
I highly recommend upgrading to a Wifi6 environment if you have a S22 (but not necessarily Wifi6e). The S22's support 160MHz channels which allows for up to a 2.4Gig multi-stream connection with your phone. My phone will connect anywhere from 1.2-2.4gig in/outside my house depending upon where I'm at in relation to my router. My internet is only 500/500, however, I noticed wifi was much snappier with my S22u over my older Wifi6 phone which used 80MHz channels.
