Running on Cyanogenmod 10 12/3 Nightly.
Ok here's my conundrum. My router has up to a 300mb/s burst & my speeds haven't suffered on any other device except my phone. The odd thing is the fact that my wifi is listed as having 72mb/s speed. See screenshot below...

Here's the kicker: A speed test on my laptop is just fine. See screenshot below...
BUT a speed test on my phone? Trash...
It also turns off during sleep despite having the "always on" option checked.
What do I do?
first of all 74Mbps is insanely fast, but I bet your internet provider is not even close to match that speed. What's your actual internet speed? I guess its 20Mbps from your laptop speed test. Now why you got such a low download speed on the phone is probably because someone was downloading something on different machine which took all the bandwidth or because you are on a nightly ROM lol.
I just made a test on my HOX and I got 9.607Mbps down and 3.892Mbps up. My laptop got 9.77Mbps down and 2.86Mbps up.
Have you had this issue before or are you just starting with CM10? Long story short, I've had the same issues with CM10. At times, WiFI speeds are normal and everything works great, then all of the sudden it drops and becomes unusable. Sense-based ROMs work fine for me.

My internet speed is at 25mb/s cable. To the highlighted I'm the only one using the wifi, that's impossible.

Yeah it's only been since I flashed CM10. This issue hasn't been recognized yet or something? Because from my searches it seems as though I'm in the minority & may just be SOL. I hope that isn't the case...
I've had this problem as well. Running CM10 "stable"

Check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1989203&page=6&highlight=wifi. A few of us reported having different issues with WiFi in CM10, my last post says that it was fixed with one of the recent nightlies but I spoke too soon, a day after using it the problem came back.
There's also this issue report http://code.google.com/p/cm9-msm8960/issues/detail?id=134 but I don't see a final solution yet.

I am running a CM7 nightly (153), with LorDModUE 6.71 kernel. I just ran the speedtest app, and my speeds were 4 down and 3 up. I ran the same test with my Xoom and laptop, and both got about 21 down and 4 up. What would be affecting my speed on the Inspire?
You could try another kernel
Sent from my INSPIRE 4g using XDA App
I'm running nightly 153 and just ran a speed test and got 18 down on the laptop and only 7 down on the inspire. I've been noticing since the switch to cm7 that wifi is lacking. Love a suggestion on a kernel that might remedy this.
FWIW, speedtest app sucks. I routinely get innacurate results with it even changing servers. I open the browser and use the speakeasy speedtest if I want something that resembles an accurate result.
I've been getting the same speeds I always have, my WiFi isn't very fast but I justed tested on my phone and laptop and got the same results. Running nightly 153 and LordModUE 6.7.1, maybe the new wifi drivers in 6.7 aren't co-operating with your router.

I know it's not the most accurate, but to see a 50-75% drop back to back is pretty telling. Is there anything in the build.prop I could change? I'll try the Tiamat kernel and do tests back to back and report back in here with the results. I'm pretty sure my speeds were low even on the older versions of the LordModUE kernel. Not sure if the kernel has any effect on wifi speeds.
No kernel changes, all stock 153.

Nope, no difference with kernel change. I even tried my wife's Atrix, and it's getting 21 down. Try mine right afterwards and get between 5-7, on both Tiamat 1.04 nd LordmodUEv6.7.1 cfs. Odd...
Good evening everyone,
I decided to look into improving speeds over wifi when remoting to my laptop(trying to play Diablo 3 from RT). I recall before February patch Tuesday that there were some issues with wifi, so I assumed that there would be no problems post patches. I decide to run some tests over speedtest.net and I noticed this drastic difference.

Router: Buffalo N300 <-link
Changed network mode(A/B/G/N). Changed channels/Channel width. Only thing I'm running into issues with is upgrading the firmware on the router(talking to buffalo about it now). Im willing to bet that I am missing/overlooking something simple as **** but I cant seem to figure it out.
Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Holy ****sack, you've got 10x better download speed than I've ever had! Why does the world hate me...
Also back to the question at hand, I've also had a problem like this, even though the Surface has two network cards it's still slow, slower than other PC's in the house, I just guess this is another problem Microsoft will have to fix.

Its got a single network card with a dual tuner. Not two network cards.
As for the download speed. My home download speed is measured in kilobits per sec, I don't even get half a megabit, let alone 11.

Oh sorry, I'm sure I read that somewhere but cheers for giving me clarity. ?
I think you are right with MS needing to optimize a bit.
Another problem I notice is that being in a larger apartment building, there are a TON of networks. I will just have to do some tinkering to see what can be done.
I have to resurrect this thread as this problem, at least for me and a few fellow RT owners, still isn't solved at all. Under 8.0 as well as the 8.1 Preview and the final version the WiFi speed seems to be stuck at a maximum of 65 Mbps.
So far I tried various AP's and different settings: n-only, 2.4/5GHz, encryption disabled, channel width 20/40, etc. but all without success. Also a complete re-install of the Surface RT didnt help as well as the numerous times I have refreshed.
Morning All,
Silly question but one that has me foxed since I started using my Pro. Has anybody been able to carry out a proper Wi-Fi speed test as when I've tried I've never been able to get more that 5Mb d/l and 18Mb u/l in any result. My speed is 78Mb/19Mb fixed and on my other tabs 30Mb/55Mb.
Anybody know why this is so and/or if I'm doing something wrong.

I think me and you only. I have found that the day I bought it, but I thought its wifi slow by default. I am thinking about sending it to samsung for repair.
Haven't noticed any issues with mine. Here's some data.
I'm about 35ft from Tomato with no obstruction. Tomato2 and both TP-Link(2.4/5) are in a bedroom ten feet further (door closed)

I had the same slow WIFI speed with my SM-P900 when it arrived. Last week I received an OTA software update and the WIFI 5 GHz speed seems to be fixed. There was definitely something wrong with the firmware. My NotePro is much more responsive and faster with the new update. I have kernel version 3.4.39-1131235 from Sat Mar 29. Build number P900XXUANC4.
This is interesting. I have the wifi version ( tab pro) and went to Verizon to test out the snapdragon chip to see if i can see a clear difference. I logged on to Verizons same wifi that the demo was on and my tab pro did circles around it in regards to web browsing. Assume it was just the store demo bloated, etc. BUT, your comments make me wonder if some units have s;low wifi for some reason.
I also assume the tab pro 12.2 and the note 12.2 is the exact device minus the pen.

No problem with my 12.2 LTE on wifi. It got about 30Mb down, 22Mb up. My desktop (fixed) gets about 80 Mb/22Mb.
No issues with WiFi here.
Desktop (5GHz) for reference: 28.83 / 5.70 (down / up)
Note Pro (2.4GHz): 29.05 / 6.62
Note Pro (5GHz): 27.05 / 6.56
Comcast, 2pm on Sunday.
Tethered to my S4 (Verizon): 48.70 / 17.60
Sorry late in replying been busy, any way for some unknown a few days back I did a speed test and everything was back to how it should 60Mb d and 17Mb u. Still have no idea why I was only getting low results before.
Thank you all for you replies and advice.

@sheepybach same here, my wifi speed back to normal after a few days. strange!!!
makki,
It makes no sense to me 1 bit lol
I bought my S7 less than a week ago and I notice something odd happening with my mobile data connection.
When I'm using 3G (Mobilcom-debitel_Vodafone/Germany), my connection is consistently laggy. Every action that I require connection for takes a couple of seconds to be executed, if executed at all. For instance, click to download an image/audio/video/etc in whatsapp, it takes 5+ sec to start the download; open the browser, takes 5+ sec to load the page; open Deezer, takes 5+ sec to start loading the data... and so on. I notice this problem since the first time I used 3G on the phone. Everything is up-to-date and I installed the phone from scratch, app by app, no backup/transfer from other phone. On my previous S6 I didn't have this problem.
Some information that might be useful:
- I use 3G/2G (auto-connect), no LTE/3G/2G
- I'm usually with BT/Wifi/3G enabled at the same time, not necessarily connected to a device or network
- The data icon keeps the up arrow on, but the down arrow off until I actually receive data and the request is processed
- If I try to turn off the mobile data connection/put in airplane mode, it takes the same amount of time for the connection icon to disappear (5+ seconds)
Is it a known issue? Anyone with the same problem?
Try to restore your phone. helped me with the same problem.

Just checking: you know that the phone is brand new, 2 days old, right? Just checking... Also, since the first time I went outside to use 3G I noticed the problem.
Did you have this Problem by using WiFi only?
2nd Option is run a Speedtest (Ookla) to Check the ping.

No, I haven't. Just my usual ****ty router problems, but other than that the wifi is fine.

I did it already and there are no problems there, as you can see below. 3G speed on my plan is limited to 21mbps.

On a side note, I did a reset of the network settings and apparently it got better. I'm still testing it, can't say yet it's fixed, but I noted some improvement for sure.

As I posted, resetting network settings was apparently a solution, but this morning it was clear that something was still pretty odd.
I will consider starting from scratch. I'm so lazy, it takes a long while to config the whole phone again, but apparently it's worth a try.
Two days ago, I noticed my backups (pictures, etc) had stopped on my Pixel with errors of 'Network Timeout.' After playing around trying to pin down the problem (NAS is ok, Router is fine, etc.), I found the phone just won't upload. Or it does intermittently at 100-200 Kbps with the VERY occasional burst of 45-50 Mbps. Downloads are fine, extremely fine at 90-110 Mbps. I do not believe it is a problem with the router as other devices on the same network have no problems. I am including screenshots from a HTC M9 and Pixel both connected to the same AP.
Now for the kicker. The Pixel is works as expected when connected to other WiFi APs (such as work, random Linksys and Netgears in the neighborhood, etc.). Just not at home. So back to the problem is with my router. But how, if everything else works fine? I'm posting here as well as the DD-WRT forums. Maybe between the two I can find a resolution or someone else experiencing the same.
Devices used while testing:
Linksys WRT-1900AC running DD-WRT
Pixel (Google store variant not VZW)
HTC M9
Acer Chromebook
ASUS laptop running Win10

Are you using IPv6 on your home network? If so, disable it and test it out. There have been reported problems with ipv6.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Thanks for the reply. However, no, I do not have IPv6 on my network. Also, as suggested on the DD-WRT forums, I do not have QoS enabled. This all seems strange as nothing was changed on my phone nor my network. Phone was fine one day and acting up the next and nothing else on the network is experiencing issues. Long weekend coming up so I'm thinking about erasing and resetting the phone to factory settings to start fresh. Phone is stock (not rooted, and still locked) as I actually like how it is and feel no need to alter it. Just perhaps something got fouled up on it. Will post back once I do the reset. In the mean time, if anyone has further suggestions, I am listening.
