I have tried lots of ICS roms till now and with every rom Iam seeing same wifi issues.
Wifi keeps disconnecting every 15 20 mins.
Today I installed official ICS using ODIN and still same issue. I was thinking this wouldn't be present in final release.
Everything works perfect on GB. Very excited about ICS but can't use my phone with wifi issues
Did anyone notice this on their phone?

I haven't had this issue personally..
Have you tried more then one WIFI network? Just thinking maybe it's your access point/router that's having issues, try restarting it perhaps?
Edit: Could also try playing with the WIFI settings in the router, sometimes changing the channel works for especially angry devices.
Factory reset the router

As I said earlier, it has nothing to do with my Router as everything works perfectly if I am on GB. I have Kindle Fire(on CM9) and Galaxy Tab 2( CM9) also and no issues those devices.
I see the same issue at home as well as in office wifi.
As the wifi gets connected within seconds after getting disconnected so it doesn't effect Web browsing, but when playing online games it becomes a nightmare.

So I've had a problem that I've noticed a lot of people having: Receiving an error that says, "Unfortunately the process com.android.phone has suddenly stopped. Stopping the app and clearing data has only ever been a temporary fix for me.
Now, I've made a new discovery: The error stops when I turn off Wifi Calling. I pretty much NEED Wifi Calling when I'm at my house, so I was wondering if there might be a possible solution to this.
I am in the same situation where I need wifi calling in my place...GB ROMs are the most reliable you will find atm...

I'm going to run through a couple of different roms to see what I can come up with.
That is a common issue with ICS at the moment. I have found that if it does this just do a hard boot (boot holding Power + Volume Up for 10 seconds while starting phone) and then turn on Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi calling and that has fixed it for me a few times.
This happens with every ICS rim out there.... Believe me I tried them all. I need it for work and unfortunately I had to resort to GB.... You will never get rid of that error. Sorry but I tried everything as well.. Good luck and God speed......

Yeah I've finally decided to break down and go to GB. I just finished downloading a few roms to test out to see which one I like best. I've loved having ICS on my phone. It's quite lovely, but just too many bugs right now. I will still be coming back to ICS (even if only temporarily) to scope out the HFS 1.8 when it arrives, but until then I'll have to do with out.

I just made the same determination. Really really like everything about HFS 1.8 except I get the same error when Wifi calling is enabled. I work in a dungeon basement office with zero cell reception, so I really need Wifi calling to work reliably.
Will definitely be back once the Wifi calling issues are fixed though.
I don't know if anyone else is having this issue or not but since I updated to ics UCLD2 and UCLE2 on both updates I seem to drop wifi connection every few minutes. Every few minutes I see a box come up that says connected to belkin. I know its actually dropping it because at times I will look up at the status bar and the wifi symbol that shows your connected won't be there then it will come back on and say connected to belkin. Its something in the phone because all the other devices on wifi in the house isn't having this problem. Anyone having or have had this problem? Any solutions? My wifi is set to never sleep and I've tried several wifi fix apps on the market and I've tried changing wifi channels still no luck..

It done it all the time on the previous leak ucld2. I thought the problem was fixed with this leak because it did fine for a couple of days it only done it a few times. But now its gets worse everyday. As long as I'm in the living room where the router is it only drops every now and then but in my bedroom away from the router it does it every few minutes....

The only thing I could suggest is flashing romracers radio he pulled from the leak. Flash it once, wait a minute, then flash it again and wait 30 seconds and reboot. It may help, it may not.
OK I don't why but I read somewhere that the skyrocket don't deal with wpa and psk security to good so I removed the security off my wifi connection and renamed it something other than belkin. I did this about oh 4 hours ago and I have not lost connection once which is great but now my wifi is wide open with no security. Guess Ill have to put my monitor on it that will let me know if more than 5 devices are connected....

Are you able to run security on your home wifi or do you just have it open? My wifi works better and faster than ever with not one disconnect as long as there is no security key to logon to the wifi. Its crazy I've never had this problem with any other device. And none of our other phones which include captivate infuse HTC status or our friends iPhone or laptops does it only my phone and only since the Android 4.0 upgrade. I flashed back to my nanadroid gingerbread backup earlier and it connected with no problems with the security on but soon as I flash back to ics is drops every few minutes until I turn the security off. So I tried the gingerbread modem with the ics and still the same drops every few minutes only with the security on. So I don't know I'm just leaving my security off and maybe when the official update comes out it will have a fix...

Im not actually at home, I am running on hotel wifi which is not secure. So I can't test that for you.
My SR has had near flawless wifi in multiple networks / security types, on 2.3.5 /6 GB and on UCLE2. The 1 exception is my home router, where it would make the secure connection, but the broadband DNS server seems to block its data connection. This affected Cappy also, resolved both with static settings. The only wifi adapters I've seen needing open settings either needed newer drivers, or were damaged ones needing replacement. One workaround for your 5 at home is a MAC filtering list.
As for wifi issues,
the only serious wifi issues I had was when using Facebook. It simply could not hold a connection. Browser, any other apps all seemed to work fine.

My wifi router is a belkin and I just recently purchased it a couple of months ago so do you think it could be bad? Also when I go to my mother in laws she has a AT&T 2 wire wireless router with security on it and my phone does it there to. None of our other phones does this and also since I posted yesterday a friend come over with a galaxy s2 not skyrocket and it connected as well with no problems. Our router is set to dynamic connection. We have DSL which is a PPOE but when I set the router to PPOE and put in the user name and password it just connecting and sticks there so I changed back to dynamic...

Given the other phones work well it seems like a fault in your phone, not the routers. One troubleshoot/workaround is to enter appropriate static IP settings as detailed in posts 1 & 7 here. That will either stabilize it or show you need to reimage the phone with full wipes to test further. You can screenshot most of the settings you need using the Ipconfig app by Mankind, during a good connection. Just take care to choose a static address outside of the router's assignable DHCP range, to avoid conflicts.
The same issue exists on the recently rolled out official ICS update for the Galaxy Note, I'm having this problem with stock radio and no root.

As long as I'm connected to an open wifi connection it works just fine but if I secure it it constantly disconnects. I'm starting to wonder if its a Samsung problem now because my wife's Samsung infuse on gingerbread is doing the same thing. And its not just my home wifi it does it at friends house with secure wifi and at mother in laws to with secure connection but never on any open connection. Um my daughters two HTC phones does not have this problem so I'm starting to think maybe its a Samsung problem. I don't think its an android problem cause both the gingerbread phone and my ics phone is doing the same thing. If it is android its something in gingerbread that carried over to ics

Had same problem
I had the same issue , went from 2.3.6 Gingerbread to the ICS UCLE2 leak and my wi-fi would turn on and off , so I just started from scratch went back to 2.3.4 via Odin , updated to 2.3.6 and flashed back to the UCLE2 leak via Odin and now it's working fine , I kinda figured it was a glitch in the software somewhere , from where I had changed rom's so many time's , and apparently it was , hope this was helpful.
While using the phone in a spot with poor wifi reception, I've noticed the wifi icon completely goes away sometimes. It will then pop back on shortly thereafter. Is this normal behavior when it thinks the wifi signal is completely gone?
I just picked one up yesterday and have been having issues. In my bedroom it will read 2 bars, drop to one, then shut off. Comes back on within seconds. This phone seems to have WiFi issues for a lot of users.

Same problem here, but it also happens when it says i have full bars. I need to enable best wifi performance to fix it. My gsii never had this problem...
This is exactly how mine behaves too. I'm in the room with my router so I normally have full bars (and should) but every once in a while the signal goes away and comes right back 2 seconds later. I've tested it with 2 routers, a linksys running dd-wrt and a d-link one, both have the same results.

International One X has issues too. The newest update 1.85 was supposed to fix some WiFi issues along with other bug fixes, and it doesn't seem to have helped us. Let's not assume they even know what the problem is at this point.

I don't think what I am experiencing is a hardware issue at all. Im not even moving the phone when this happens, and my phone passes the squeeze test. I'm confident this means it has to be software related.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
This is kind of an old/dead thread by now, but I just wanted to share my experience with wifi on the One X.
I'm also having problems, but I'm currently running a nightly (though very stable) build of CM10 on my One X and still have wifi issues. This COULD be hardware related, in that it's just crappy hardware (though it could also be software related if CM10 is built using wifi "code" (not really sure what the correct term for the wifi stuff in the software is ) from the stock software)
I'm sitting at work right now, for example, and every once in a while the wifi will disconnect. When connected it shows 2-3 wifi bars, when it's NOT connected, my wifi network shows up as "not in range" .
same type of thing has happened at my house. I thought my phone was defective so I traded it in for a replacement at best buy. Same issue. Such a shame becuase I really like everything else about this phone and wifi was never an issue on my last HTC device.
kernel changes affect wifi. some of the cm10 builds have known wifi issues.
i would never think of returning a phone because of an experience with a custom rom, since the phone wasn't built to run that rom.
always revert to full stock and see if you still have the issue. also updated ota/ruu are made to fix issues also. at&t rom doesn't have many stock wifi issues, but you can always run into issues with wifi access point incompatibilities.
Lately my phone's WIFi started to have issues. It will work for few minutes and then will stop receiving any data. The only way to temporarily fix it is to toggle WIFI off and on. But then again it will only work for few minutes, anyone has an idea what's wrong?
This issue I experienced on these roms:
Stock ICS Leak #1.
SCV7
Team Shogun's ICS rom 1.2
MIUI by team shogun.
MIUI by rdavict
Does it sounds like a hardware issue? Any troubleshooting tips?
Did you have the WiFi issues when you are stock which mean the first time you get your phone?Maybe it's your base ROM problem.

No, I had this phone for about one month, but the WIFI started acting up about one week ago.
Just did a fxz back to 2.3.6 and updated to ICS. Seems to be working without issues so far.
May not matter now (I'm downloading ics as we speak) but I "solved " this problem by also keeping my Bluetooth turned on all the time. Once I did that, the wifi disconnects (which started about 9 months after I got the phone) stopped. But I'm hoping the update has a fix.

The WIFI issues started again. Will try what jacindc suggested.
Edit:
Nope, enabled BT and WIFI, rebooted, WIFI stopped working within 2 minutes. It stays connected but doesn't receive any data until I reconnect.
Maybe delete and recreate your WiFi profiles too?
My wifi has been solid since upgrading, with Bluetooth turned off.

What do you mean by deleting and recreating WIFI profiles?
Been running CM10, and WIFI works great here.
I downgraded to ICS and the problem started again. Figured out what it was when my bro started complaining that his RAZR started having WiFi problems.
The problem was that the router gave out same IP address to both phones. :facepalm:
EDIT: Both phones have identical MAC address.
I was running MOAR rom using noobz hotspot but now using Beans 1, both with lean kernel and had same problem. When I turn on hotspot my 4g connection disconnects and then reconnects every 10 seconds or so. It happens non stop. Don't know why or what to do to resolve this. I do not have a hotspot plan with Verizon.

This is a connection issue with Verizon. It has nothing to do with the ROM. Only way to fix it is get a stronger data signal. Sometimes I notice it tends to drop and reconnect more often then usual
Flashing a new radio may help.

I have this issue even when I have full signal strength. I am also running MD1 radio and rpm. I had MD3 but when I read about samsung pulling the source and hearing about some of the problems that have happened (even though Im not running an AOSP rom) I went back to MD1.

It may already be a reported bug, but it is possible that the ROM may be the problem. Try searching the MOAR development page and see if the issue was already reported. From my experience though, I usually have the same issues as you and I still think it has to do with Verizon.
You could always try the Treve mod and see if that fixes your issue, unless that's the mod already implemented in MOAR.
Otherwise, I'd try a clean flash to see if that fixes it. Then if it still doesn't work, run a logcat and post it. Then the developers can have something useful to check to see if something is wrong.
