Hi, recently i`m experiencing technical problem with my Asus.
I think since I installed PRIME1.7.
each time that I turn off the screen for more than a minute, the WIFI card doesnt stop turning off and on. Then I must reboot the tablet to be able to connect WIFI.
can anyone help on this plz. Now I`m running on PRIME 1.9 no_3g and still have the same issue.
I have the exact same issue. If I were to tap the power botton to sleep and leave it for a while then the Wi-Fi keeps switching from On and Off without staying on.
Only a hard reboot seems to bring the Wi-Fi back on.
I am on the latest Asus Firmware and Wi-Fi version 5.2.58
I had this same problem, it seems to be an issue with the latest google maps update. Go into settings>applications>Manage applications then find maps and uninstall the updates. It worked for me, might work for you guys.
I uninstalled updates for maps and it worked for me.
but to be fully honest, I also uninstalled a couple of applications that use the wifi connection ( freewifi, for access points in France)
Same problem here on a pretty-much daily basis. Sometimes multiple times per day. Just found the following thread on another site, which suggests it to be a DHCP lease problem:
http://www.transformerforums.com/forum/asus-transformer-help/4774-wifi-turning-off.html
it might be a ROM problem. I've tried prime, revolver and arhd and with prime and revolver I would get a lot of disconnects in a mesh 802.1x network, but arhd is much more stable (still disconnects once or twice in a 8hour block while i'm at work, but it disconnects and reconnects by itself pretty quick).
Hi, I am running on the ICS 4.0.4 build LQ1. Recently my wifi keeps dropping off. I have to keep turning off n on to connect back and it only lasts for a few seconds. Anyone had this issue?
Anyone in ICS ). Or a (bad) Huawei router. Jokes aside, try to fix permissions via Rom Manager and be sure that you have only one remembered wifi network. It's strange, but Samsung ICS "connection manager" disconnect from active wifi connection and jumps on the other(s). And not returning back...Or, better, try a newest custom ROM - if you still want "stock" appearance can use singha rom you can taste JB in Paranoid Android. Both higly recommended. Hope it helps!
PS. check also wifi router and set the wifi to a fixed (non-overlapping) channel - 5 for example.

After my tablet is sitting for a while, I unlock it and the wifi is grey instead of blue and I can't access anything on the internet. To solve it, I have to power off wifi and turn it back on again and the signal is blue. I have all of the sleep settings turned off and I have wifi set to stay on at all times. This happens on every router I connect to, so it's not my router.
Anyone else have this problem and/or have a fix for it?
Running Hydro 7, but this has happened on every custom ROM
Thanks
Ive been having major issues with my wifi on a stock non rooted JB stock firmware Relay.
Wifi was working fine for the longest time. Recently my wpa2 home network wont connect. I keep seeing "wifi authentication error" every time I try to connect. I did a cache wipe, and when I do, it works for a day or so and then goes back to the same issue
Now Im having problems getting any data from wifi, wether its an open network or WPA. It just shows that its connected, the little arrows on the signal meter light up but no data actually gets transferred.
I did a battery pull and it seemed to fix it temporarily, but seems like the issue comes back
Any help??
So I've had my Nexus 5 for roughly around a month and I hadn't experienced any issues others have had with wifi not connecting until now. My N5 will show im connected to my home wifi with full bars, but going into quick settings shows it to be orange. Suggesting there's no data transfer, I cannot use any internet based apps with wifi. I've tried some suggestions, switching my router off then on, rebooting the phone, turning some settings off in the advanced panel in wifi settings. All have failed.
I was just wondering if anyone else has this problem and if anyone has a fix to it.

There was a thread around here somewhere that suggested turning off your mobile data helped fix this problem, I think it was in the N5 General forums.....here it is:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2550690
Don't know if it'll help or not, just saw your thread and had just looked at the other one, figured I'd toss it out there.
Thanks for the reply, just tried that solution but still no luck.
I have a similar problem except that there are phases of wifi not working.
Sometimes I would have around 20-30 seconds of WiFi not working and there would be no data transfer.
Speeds are still fast when it is working however.
I played a little with only using mobile data and no wifi, and everything worked. (Small sample size however).
Seems like this is a WiFi only issue.
So somehow overnight the wifi has managed to fix itself, will report back if the problem returns.
The issue with the wifi returned unfortunately.

Don't know if you've tried this but change your WiFi frequency band in advanced setting to either "5 GHz only" or "2.4 GHz only," whatever your router uses. Might be worth a try.
Thanks for the help, but I've tried changing some settings in advanced wifi settings but it hasn't worked. Even what you recommended I've tried that before and it didn't work.
wifi issue
Also I have the same issue - Im connected to router by wi-fi, home and work and time by time (5x a day) wifi stops working. Wifi is enabled in settings, but there is no connection. Restart the cellphone helps, but after that, maybe an hour, it appears again.
Issue was in 4.4 and still appers in 4.4.1.
Yet did not found how to solve it.
I have the same issue on my gnex running shiny 4.4, but I also had the same issue on 4.3. Tried the wifi options, nothing worked. Unfortunately, no solution for this device that has to last one more week. The double swipe down and tapping wifi gets the connection back, but it is only a work around.
The N5 connects seamlessly to my home and work wifi. A few days ago, I flashed the hammerhead factory image, TWRP and the 4.4.1 update.

Hey,
I have the same problem with 4.4.2.(factory rom, no root or not unlocked). Sometimes the wifi not works and get orange. I must put airplane mode to fix it. Its annoying.
But as well happens to me:
When I go out from office or home (where I have wifi connections saved in phone) the phone automatically switch to data plan from carrier. But when I come back the phone stays with data and there is not automatic switch to wifi. Sometimes it help to put wifi off or always airplane mode on/off for a while.
I do not know if it is normal behave of android but I would like have automatic switch to wifi.
I tried to change wifi details (changing bands, etc.) but not helped.
Please help. Thank you.
Is custom ROM or kernel will fix it??
For some unknown reason, as soon as I updated my router's firmware, the problem disappeared.
Updated Android 6.0 solved the issue

So I had the unfortunate experience of having my wifi go down while on vacation and for 3 weeks I spent a good chunk of time wiping and reinstalling multiple versions from Cyanogen, Paranoid android and 4.4 - 5.1 to no avail. I just did another factory wipe today and installed the new Android 6.0
The Finger Pointing Game is OVER
Read through 30+ pages of other android users with similar experience and some people send their units back to LG and some even managed getting a new handset. There was never any hardware issues with my unit I just couldn't turn on the WiFi but after the install WiFi works? Guess next time you push a software update to our Phones CHECK YOUR SH*T google and Maybe DON'T Take 3 months to FIX your F*CK Up.
I have a similar issue. Since Lollipop my phone almost never automatically connects to my WiFi anymore. What's wrong?
