[Q] My only gripe: Wifi not automatically reconnecting - Motorola Atrix 2

So I love my Atrix 2, btu my only complaint is that the WiFi doesn't automatically reconnect when I get within range of my home or work WiFi. Anyone else have this issue?

My phone does reconnect with wifi reliably but I have had it fail to connect automatically with my car Bluetooth on a few occasions prompting me to manually connect.
Overall, I have been impressed with the ease of connecting, range and speed of my wifi.

I dont leave my wifi on for it to be able to do that so its a non-issue for me. I just run switchpro widget and enable wifi when i know im within range and it connects everytime, and fast too.

Yep same here. I use tasker to schedule my wifi/BT connections. The new wifi on this thing takes so long to disconnect from my new 802.11n router, that my truck's radio gives up on trying to connect when i turn the key on lol. So i have to start the truck, haul ass down my street, or manually connect bluetooth.

Is your Wi-Fi turning Off completely? Or just not reconnecting. I was having the issue of Wi-Fi Turning Off when at home and Wi-Fi is around so I wound up exchanging it for a new one and that issue has gone away so far. Plus it had a bad battery too, when I returned it the chick at Best Buy Noticed a bubble in the battery. That was fun yea considering I had it under my pillow last night and when I woke up the damn thing was like 100 degrees.

I leave my Wi-Fi on when I go to work it automatically connects then once I get home it automatically connects. Weird that your having that problem. Go to Wi-Fi settings then once in click the menu button and click advanced then go to Wi-Fi sleep policy and set it to never.

I just changed the sleep pattern. Let's see if that correct it.

Post if it works.

So far so good. The true test will be when I get home tonight if the system logs into my wifi at home. *fingers crossed*
Edit: Yup, it worked.

Mine did that too but I recently did a factory reset and it connects automatically now as long as the wifi is on.

Glad it worked.

I'm having an odd problem with my WiFi..
I use all Ubiquity Access points (UniFI) and the Atrix 2 is having the same problem the Droid X does, which is that it will connect, work fine for about 2 minutes, then stop passing data all together until wifi is turned off and back on.
With the DX, it was a problem with its chipset and drivers interacting with certain access points (Atheros). The problem was identified by Verizon, but never fixed in 2.2.x with any 2.3 updates having never been tested by me so far.
Is any one else experiencing similar difficulties with their Atrix 2? If so what type of AP is it connecting to if you know.

WiFi issues on home network

Whenever I use the WiFi on my phone at home within an hour my network completely shuts down then I gotta unplug the modem n linksys router to reset it back.
There's some kind of conflict with the phone because my bros iPhone works fine n my laptop also works fine on WiFi
Any suggestions to fix this problem?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Have you logged into your router and looked around, for example any security settings that could be locking your phone out? Or possibly usage settings? Does it happen even without the iphone connected?
It sounds like there is something seriously wrong with your equipment if this happens. Do you have to reset both or can you reset just the router or just the modem? The thunderbolt shouldn't be causing either one to die.
It could be a problem with how many devices are connected to the wifi simultaneously. I know my buddies wifi with comcast just craps the bed whenever more than 5 devices are hooked up to his wireless router. Maybe thats the issue?
Try to unplug BOTH the router and the modem for about 30 secs to a min then plug it back in. Then just make the necessary changes on the router for security and stuff. It worked for me since I had the same problem before. Good luck.
I don't know all of your details but I think I had a similar problem. We had the security set as WPA2 and I would only get 0.5 download. When I changed the security to WPA and it resolved everything. Give that a try.

Hmmm...I've noticed my router flaking out also and only after reading this did it occur to me that the TB might be the culprit. That must be it since the router has normally been solid for weeks and weeks, but since adding the TB I've now had to reboot it every other day or so. I've got the TB wifi off now since the battery seems to last longer for me under LTE (decent signal here, ymmv).
The approach I would try would be to change security protocols as another poster mentioned. In fact, if the issue is rapidly reproducible, I'd start out by disabling security all together and see if that fixes it. If it does, then that confirms it's the security protocol and you can go from there.
I'm using WPA2, btw, and sharing the TB with 8 other devices on the network. My router is the d-Link DIR-655.
i have an older linksys WRT54GX4. i upgraded the firmware and setup wpa sercurity since i didn't have any security enabled lets see if anything changes.
we have 6 wireless devices in the house but usually they aren't all going at the same time idk maybe its time to buy a new wireless router, any suggestions guys????

G2x wifi problem

My wifi connection is not very stable. Keeps on disconnecting.
I heard this is a known problem for theb g2x. Are any of u experiencing this issue? And or know how to fix this?
Is tmobile gonna do an update fix for this?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
I've experienced wifi issues myself. Wifi was working flawlessly the first week i had the phone but now it seems as though it does not want to connect to any network -__- it just says 'error'
Not sure if i had something to do with it acting up, maybe i downloaded an app that caused it to act up.. idk
No definite word if the upcoming gb update will fix this issue but i sure hope it will!
sometimes simply rebooting your router can fix this. of all the wifi threads i've seen, i never saw anyone mention this. but like i said, it will sometimes fix it.
After leaving my phone idle for 15+ minutes, I'll lose wifi. Simple fix is to disable/enable wifi. LG knows of this problem and will release a fix on the next update. http://www.lgforum.com/forum/boards/general/lg/topics/g2x-wifi-problems
Now others are having a different type of wifi issue where it won't connect at all, I'm not sure if it's a hardware or software issue.
I'm having the exact same issue. Wifi will be connected, then after a period of time the connection gets disabled. It's quite annoying, as I often do not notice it for a while, after I have already gobbled up a bunch of 4G bandwidth.
I fixed this problem with G2xFixWi-Fi from the market.
Just 4 clicks and it is done.
two separate wifi problems with the g2x
it's good that your wifi problem was fixed with the G2xFixWi-Fi app. but that only fixes the dns problem.
there is another wifi problem where if the phone is in idle for a while and you wake it up, you see from the indicators at top there is no wifi icon and that it is trying to connect 4g but doesn't succeed. the 4g icon flashes on briefly and disappears. it keeps on doing this every second until i manually turn off wifi. then it connects to 4g. from what i can deduce, if i don't turn off wifi before putting it in idle, it does this as well after the phone is in idle for a while. i'm not sure how long after the screen switches off that this looping process happens, but give it 2 hours and i feel that the back of the phone is really warm. i'm thinking that it's warm because it is constantly in this loop. this may also be the source of the massive battery drain that some are seeing.
if i manually turn off wifi before putting it in idle, this doesn't happen. so that's my solution for the time being. i heard about using tasker to automote toggling wifi on/off as the screen is on/off. and it seemed to work at first. but after an overnight test, i found out that the phone response time is sluggish and unpredictable, to the point where i had to have perfect timing just to unlock the phone from idle. rebooting the phone didn't resolve the sluggish response problem, but uninstalling tasker did the trick. so now, it's back to manually turning off wifi before putting it in idle.
another solution proposed is to set wifi to never sleep in the settings. the last time i tried it, it didn't work for me. but i'll try it again to see if it'll work this time.
setting wifi to never sleep did not help
nope. i changed my wifi settings to never sleep and the wifi disconnection problem still happens.
When my phone was stock I had problems with Wi-Fi when it was simultaneously trying to run 2G or 4G. Since then I have switched to various ROMs and Wi-Fi is rock solid. I do use Juice Defender which turns it on and off when screen is off and I'm not running a short list of programs like Pandora. It also reliably switches on when I arrive home.
My G2X won't connect to every WiFi network, and there are a few it cannot even find. I was in a cafe the other day and my friend's laptop and Nokia connected to its WiFi network and my G2X could not even find it... (( So, the problem is, some networks it recognizes but does not connect to (it sticks to "obtaining internet IP..." and then disconnects) and some it cannot even recognize. But to most networks it connects no problem (my home included)... What could be the problem? Can anyone help me?

If you have not messed with the ROM and are having this problem - try TMo tech support first, then ask for a replacement if not fixed.
I have had excellent WiFi performance with stock ROM and EB Froyo's and GB (with and without kernels) - WiFi always worked OK. Could be bad unit - it should work!
My wifi has worked flawlessly, but I think it may depend on the router. I recently bought a wifi repeater to use on the other side of my house and when I connect to that, the G2x will disconnect from wifi after about 15 minutes of idle time, like previous posts have said. I switch back to my regular router and it never disconnects.
I have also notice the problem to.

This sounds like normal behavior honestly. What is your wifi sleep policy set to? By default the wifi radio turns off when the screen is turned off and then turns back on when the screen turns on.
G2X CM7
Thanks for responding. I have it set to "when screen turns off." The weird thing is I never noticed it do the little switcheroo before. Also, I have Juice Plotter just for fun and it used to show wifi for most of the night when I'm sleeping and the phone is charging. And now it shows APN during that time. I guess it was messing up before and now it's doing what it's supposed to.
Can you enlighten me on a myth, I heard that the wifi consumes less power than the APN or 4G. Is this true or false?
Thanks again

With a LTE or Wimax phone, I think so. With a phone using hspa+, I don't think so.
Did you try.
Did you set it like I do, WI-FI never sleep. Because where I live
T-MOBIL had no cell service. Well, Very spotty coverage.
Also check how many people in you're neighborhood are on your same channel. And change yours.
Look in mark there's a free APP that's a WI-FI analyzer.
And change to one

My wifi is acting weird. It does a loop whenever i have a WPA/WPA2 settings on my home wifi but works when i have it disabled. :S It was alright with stock froyo and stock GB i uploaded from LG. then i flashed Xboarders OTA 1.2.2 GB and this happens.
Can any1 give an insight how to fix this ? =(
im having the same problem, i bought the g2x the day it came out (when it had froyo before gingerbread came out) and never had a problem leaving my wifi on 24/7 it wasnt until the update for gingerbread came out that this problem started happening, it really sucks for me since im using my g2x as an AT&T phone for now all i get is 2g speeds

also something i tried and worked was turn wifi off, turn off your phone and turn it back on then go to menu>settings> wireless & network>wi-fi settings>check connect to wifi and check connect to wifi that worked for me (holding the phone in landscape mode (horizontally) ) i add that in because one time i was turing the wifi on in that order it didnt work i dropped my phone and picked it back up in landscape mode and wifi was connected. im not sure if anything i said helped anyone at all but hope i didnt waste anyones time

[SOLVED?] WiFi and Deep Sleep

Ok, so I think I've figured out why my SR wouldn't go into Deep Sleep when WiFi is on. I think it stems from fact that there's a lot of multicast traffic (IPTV) on my network. I'm a U-Verse subscriber with fiber to the home (FTTH) and my entire house is connected via Ethernet, including the set to boxes (STB). No coax whatsoever is connected. As a result, my STBs share the same network as my non-STB devices (WiFI, Servers, PCs, etc). This causes the STB IPTV traffic to flood the network including the WiFi (my theory). I decided to test my theory by moving all my WiFi APs (3 of them) to a separate subnet, thereby eliminating multicast completely from the WiFi. And what do you know?...my SR goes into Deep Sleep when WiFi is on.
Hope this helps others with the same problem. Switches that are more intelligent can help with the filter multicast more dynamically. Look for something that is IGMP aware and that should help.
How did you get FTTH with U-Verse? It is typically FTTN.

I think it depends on your area. My friend lives in a brand new house about .25 miles from me and he has FTTH, while I can't even get FTTN because my neighborhood is 15 or so years old.
Some wi-fi routers are better than others for this issue.
I've attached a betterbattery screenshot of the wifi related kernel wakelocks I get. This is supposedly from the wi-fi router saying "are you there, are you there, are you there".
This thread talks about the issue and even recommends a router model that does not cause the problem.

The wakelock described in that article was essentially my theory, but for multicast. I noticed the lights on my APs blinking like crazy. I'm using the exact same three APs, just now separated by a router. I'm running DDWRT on three different types of APs as well (Netgear WNDR3300, Netgeard WNDR3400, and Linksys E2000).
As for FTTH, yes...there is a single strand of fiber going into an Alcatel-Lucent NID and then Cat5 to a 2Wire gateway that feeds the Ethernet to the rest of the house. Pretty killer setup. I've got GigE everywhere with 2 ports per room...even in the garage.

Heh, nice. I've got FTTN, but the VRAD is like, less then 100 feet away, so they can easily provide me with higher then promised speeds (I have the 24/3 plan, I get 26/4).

I think my skyrocket is just defective
Well this doesn't appear to be the problem with my Skyrocket. I got home, took it to my friends house and connected to his wifi. (Not Uverse) Phone spent 95% of the time awake and 5% in deep sleep, and it was just sitting on the couch next to me with the screen off, I never touched it. So then I tethered it to my Galaxy Nexus, and the exact same thing happens. I thought maybe this would be the case, as my Galaxy Nexus has no issues going into deep sleep at home on my Uverse wifi setup. I really believe now that there is some defect in this phone, and will be returning it to AT&T for a new one. Or some other phone even.
I have this same problem on my FIOS home wifi. Plagued me for weeks. Looked for solutions, tried everything. The router just sends out too many ARP requests, which constantly wake the phone. Even on boneStocketeer with background sync disabled and no apps installed, not even signed in Google account, I'd still get like 15% wake locks from wlan. I've given up at this point I've tried everything on that router. And since ARP doesn't have a port, I can't block them.
If I set up a separate AP connected to my router with dd-wrt, I could filter multi cast stuff like that?

Wouldn't a simple solution to fix the wake lock caused by wifi be to change the wifi sleep settings so that the phone turns off wifi when the screen is also off?

Well yes, that is what I'm currently doing, but LTE is much more of a battery hog than Wifi. So I get about 12 hours on battery, with fairly light to maybe moderate usage, but better than nothing I guess. It is frustrating because otherwise this phone is just absolutely great. Super fast, and LTE is amazing here in Houston. I will get this figured out eventually.
I can get up to 17 hours with moderate use, I usually leave LTE on all day, and it is a huge drain when the screen is on. But it is better than nothing, better than what I was getting on my Inspire. I think the Wifi also has more to do with the ROM you use, when I was on stock I got better battery life when I used Wifi all day, rather than leave it off and have LTE on.

Well my skyrocket wouldn't take the update that I guess came out just a few days ago (probably because it was root and had CWM on it) but whatever. I was FED UP with this thing. So I downloaded the UCLA rooted ROM and Modem and wiped the whole blasted phone. Factory reset/wipe data, Formatted /system, wiped cache and Dalvik. There was nothing on the phone (except the internal and external SD card where my titanium and nandroid backups were at. Flashed that ROM and Modem. Set up phone, restored JUST my downloaded apps like games, etc. Froze AT&T bloat.
And I no longer have the sleep issue.
I solved restarting my router.
AUs
I just got this issue too.
Tracked it back to SX Virtual server and Dropbox, and now the wakelocks seems to be gone.
What I did was this:
Tried Shark - it showed that there was a lot of packets sent to and from local computers on my network. Nothing more useful info from that.
Tried Network Log, it showed the amounts of packets sent and receieved by Kernel. And most of them was sent to/from local computers, using specific UDP ports.
Used TCPview on the computers to see what it was. It informed that the ports was used by two programs: SX Virtual Server (identical to D-Link Shareport) and Dropbox.
I uninstalled SX Virtual Server/Shareport (it's useless anyway) and disabled Lan sync in Dropbox.
Now, the Kernel network activity is almost idle.
Hope this helps others with this issue.

It could be a DHCP issue. If possible try to assign the Note a static IP address on the router. Not all Wi-Fi radios work equally well with all Wi-Fi routers. For example, the i9100 had a particular dislike for D-Link routers. I travel a lot and haven't had any issues with the Note connecting, staying connected, and re-connecting in any of the hotels or airports I've used it in.

WiFi problem DIR855
I have the same problem that the Note 10.1 connects to my WiFi network but no data is passed through.
I did a factory reset and then it started to work as it should but after a couple of hours it stopped again.
The D-link DIR-855 has both 2.4 GHz and 5GHz wifi band so I enabled the 5GHz band and I was able to connect to the SSID and access internet, nut only for a few hours.
Now it connects to the netwok but I can´t access internet nor my LAN.
At home I have Huwei router and there it works without problems.
I wonder who to blame if it´s Dlink or Samsung.
Anyone have a solution to this?

WiFi becomes Inactive on idle

I have a OPO, Nexus 5, iPad and Galaxy S5 on the same WiFi network and when my OPO goes on idle, it will stay on the WiFi network but lose internet connection after some time whereas my other devices wont. It's not a matter of the settings because I have left WiFi to be awake at all times and even turned off WiFi battery optimization. I'm having a tough time figuring out why this happens. I have to turn wifi on and off to regain internet.

I have a OPO, Nexus 5, iPad and Galaxy S5 on the same WiFi network and when my OPO goes on idle, it will stay on the WiFi network but lose internet connection after some time whereas my other devices wont. It's not a matter of the settings because I have left WiFi to be awake at all times and even turned off WiFi battery optimization. I'm having a tough time figuring out why this happens.

I think I had the same issue, it only worked after I used a different router... I tested it in several places (even in two countries) and the damned thing only stopped working in my home network.
I have no idea why it happened but it only went away with a different router...

My only theory is because maybe my IP is not static and CM on OPO is not made to handle it? I don't get why my other devices work fine though. It only happens at home for myself as well

Could be software, does it happen in CM11 nightlies?
Or maybe is the config for the wlan HW, I think OPO has a Qualcomm solution for WiFi, I haven't experienced this in my Nexus 5 (Broadcom WLAN) or 7 2013 (Qualcomm older WLAN I think).

I seem to be having the same issue. it's weird. I've been trying to do initial upload from Titanium Backup to my Box account and it sucks...
network is a netgear adsl router with the wifi turned off, wired to a netgear router running dd-wrt, and I also have a repeater that's a d-link dir-615 running dd-wrt... yeah not the simplest setup I know
Would be useful to know if those experiencing the issue have altered screen timeout settings.
I was managing to upload ~30mb at a time, but now it seems to be much less - 1mb or less. I'm not sure if that's because I turned the screen timeout down to lowest (15s) to see what happened, but I've now turned it back up to 30 mb but the amount I can upload hasn't increased with it :/ Well - except for once where I did manage to upload 30mb again - which was directly after I turned off adaptive backlight. but then after that it was down to less than 1mb again.
Really scratching my head here.
There appears to be a similar thread over on the OPO forums - https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/wifi-slows-to-a-crawl.75850/ - I'm posting this in and watching both
