[Q] Wifi Roaming - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone issues with WiFi Roaming?
I have 3 APs in my house (actually there are 4, but the 4th is in the basement and is completely far away of the other 3). Two are TPLink WR1043ND and the other is an Apple TimeCapsule. The three of them are configured with the same SSID and WPA2 password. The channels are 3-8-13, so there is no overlapping between them (I didn't start on 1 because there is a strong WiFi signal from a neighbor in that channel). Also the TimeCapsule has 5GHz band with the same name and password on channel 48.
I think everything is correct, and so does my iPad think as it correctly roam between the different APs. But nor my Nexus 5 or my wife's Nexus 4 will roam. Obviously, if I disconnect WiFi and then reconnect, it will go to the strongest signal AP (either 2.4GHz or 5.0GHz).
Am I the only one with WiFi roaming issues?

Give each router (and each band, if dual) a different SSID. If it's still not connecting properly to the strongest signal, you can try Wifi Jumper on the Play Store.

Ok, so this is what Android does not have, and this is why this is not working

I will try WiFi Jumper. I hope that it is not a battery hog like Wifi Roaming Fix (which I think is not working on 4.4.2.

I've determined that the N5 wifi works well only on the 2.4GHz band. And it's speedy.

Not sure where you got that idea but the N5 works perfectly fine on 5GHz band.

Well, I got that idea from the numerous tests I conducted. But, if yours works, I guess there's hope.

Frankly it should work better on the 5GHz band since it's not as crowded. One thing that you might want to look at is if you have wideband turned on. It doesn't effect mine but it my not play right across all the different AP's you have. You know the 20/40 Configuration. If your not familiar with it. It's where the AP will burst from say just channel one through channel six. This allows cards to talk more without talking over each other or waiting for a spot. However different AP's do this different. Could be anything but that is where I would start. There also no real 2'3:4'5. It's channal 1-6 and 6-12. So see if channel six is available without overlapping someone else's AP.

I would change all my AP's to six, or 12 if you can since you said 1 was taken. Best yet download inSSIDer then do a proper wifi scan.

My router's (Asus RT-AC66U) channel bandwidth settings have the following options: 20, 40, 80, and 20/40/80.

Just curious why you wouldn't use 1-6-11 and use channel 11 closest to the area where you have strong signal on channel 1. Even if you aren't interfering with your other APS directly with your equipment you are still going to get interference on channel 3 from that channel 1 ap I would imagine.

This is the intended behavior of WiFi. It's more efficient to remain associated to an existing AP than to reassociate with a new AP each time one comes within range if the signal from original AP is still adequate.
You might try enabling the option to avoid poor connections but I doubt it will help provide the roaming function you are looking for.

channel 36 seems to be the only 5 Ghz that the note 2 works right on. My nexus 5 doesn't seem to care. If your using more than 1 AP then you want them all on the same channel and same ssid/password . People start having issues when they mix different gear into their wifi setup like this one. With the same gear, ssid, password things should work fine if your not running ontop of someone else. The cut off point of interference is around 60 dBm or lower. if your wifi is walking on the same channel with that much bleed over from someone else's wifi then you need to change channels. Kill the wideband and switch it back to 20. or simply go the 5Ghz route. As far as devices trying to to stay with the original AP while roaming that really only applies to different ssids which is the true meaning of roaming. Staying within your own ssid and same channel isn't really roaming even if your moving from one AP to the next inside your own wifi network layout.

[Q] Wifi Channel 13? Can't use it.

I can't seem to see my Wi-Fi AP (channel 13) on my new Nexus 5. It was set up as English UK, so shouldn't have any problem accessing channels 12 and 13.
This is the display in WiFi Analyser on my Galaxy Nexus:

You can see why I picked channel 13. And this is the same location with the Nexus 5:
Have I missed something? I can't find anything in the wifi settings regarding a region setting. Any help appreciated.

When multiple access points (or other WiFi devices) are on the same channel, they notice each other and coordinate to not transmit at the same time. This is to avoid interference with each other. If two devices transmit at the same time, generally both packets are lost and both get transmitted.
Now, when you put them on overlapping but different channels, they often do not coordinate. But still, when to transmit at the same time, the packets are lost. Happens a lot more without coordination, though.
There is a four-channel setup which doesn't overlap, or at least the overlap is small enough, but everyone would need to switch to it...
IOW, you'd probably get better performance on 6 or 11. And your neighbors would too, were you to switch. A win for everyone. Do some speed and latency (ping) tests to be sure.
Or move to the 5 GHz frequencies, which are less crowded and better blocked by walls.

Thanks for the input. I appreciate what you are saying and that may solve the problem from the other direction but it doesn't explain what I'm seeing.
Has anyone else seen this odd behaviour with their Nexus 5?
If I remember right the nexus 4 didn't recognise channel 13 either Max was channel 12 unless on 5Ghz.

Thanks for the info.
A friend's Windows 8 tablet had the same issue a while back, and at the time I remember thinking, "That's a bit crap", and wondering why it would not function to spec. I wrote it off as a Microsoft-ism. Shame to see that sort of approach wander over to Google and the Nexus line of products.

Hi - exactly the same for me. My Nexus 5 does not see channel 13 at all - my Nexus 4 (and 7 for that matter) sees it fine!
Both set up English UK - but the Nexus 5 just will not recognise channel 13 at all... Weird.

It is likely by design and I would not be surprised if the updates for the N7 and other devices start blocking it out. Thanks to US FCC regulations, overseas might not be able to use them.
I'm having the same issue. I had my AP setup on channel 13. I had no issues using it on my laptops, SGS III, SGS 4, Samsung Note 10.1 but when I fired up my Nexus 5 I did not see my network.
After few days figuring out why only this one network is not visible I finally changed the channel to 11 and it is working fine. But it is not solution so I kept digging and I have found out that is going on. At least in my situation.
Channels 12 and 13 are allowed to be used in Europe and Japan only. I'm in Poland, phone is from German distribution so I thought that it should be not as issue. Apparently phone distribution/origin is not the case.
I was testing it without the SIM card since I was planning to set it up completely before moving from my SGS3 to it. Once SIM card has been inserted phone recognized it is in Europe and channel 13 became available! Pretty weird for me but looks like it is working that way...
Great post artiwal. After I put the sim in, channel 13 networks suddenly become available. Thank you!

Connected, no internet WiFi problem after Nougat update - BTU

Hello guys!
After Nougat update, the WiFi connection stops from time to time. A exclamation mark appears on WiFi sign and internet is not working. If i reconnect everything is ok a while. I wiped, but i still have this problem. I tested on 2 different routers.
Anyone else with this? Solutions?

Have you tried assigning the phone a static IP?
See if it still drops, if not it could be having a problem with DHCP

Make sure correct IP, Gateway, DNS etc is filled in and hit save
Mine auto filled it from the previous DHCP info it already had so just have to hit save
This was a useless recommendation. There're too many people with an issue and this shouldn't be a problem. Especially when the same device and routers has no problem befor nougat and then continuous problems after update.

More like off shore tech support. At least you didn't recommend factory reset of the guys phone.
But seriously? Troubleshooting? It seems you know the meaning, but not the steps. If you build some before, after, and comparitive context to the users situation, you may have come to a different conclusion.
To the poor soul that gets here with a question burning in everyone's mind, "why me?" Go to Samsung and complain, get a new phone and viola, problem passed on. Especially if you just got it. There are a bunch of issues that you may also be unlucky to have in addition to the WiFi struggling to accept what it thinks as a weak internet connection.
Context:
I did not have any of these issues pre-Nougat;
Nothing change at home, work, and I assume the other locations either;
After the update I factory reset hoping for resolution;
Nope. Purely ignored defect from Samsung...
In addition I suffer from loudspeaker audio cutting out on YouTube videos, which is resovled if you go to a music player and play a few seconds of a song and then go back to the video. Must be the static IP need... Which even if it resolved the issue is still not a resolution! Are you going to assign static IPs everywhere you go? Common dude.
I have the exact same wifi connected, but no internet problem on AT&T S7. It connects if i toggle wifi off and on, but this is annoying

I had this problem in the past.
What I did was look up the APN settings for my phone with a specific carrier.
Then I went into settings and created a NEW APN with those exact settings.
You then have to save it, select it, and reboot your phone.
It solved my problem, which was an APN that had gotten corrupted.

Samsung s8/s8+ wi-fi nougat fix !!! (aka s7)

just like in s7 nougat
nougat wi-fi fix (losing connection & reconnect) 5Ghz band
Settings > Location > Improve Accuracy > Bluetooth Scanning : Turn it off
also disable "smart network switch" from

That's good for battery life?

I did not see so much difference but it's a thing that you not use.....
what does it fix? which wifi problems?
Actually I do use Smart Network switch, I switches between LTE and Wi-Fi. I also keep LTE alive in the background for faster switching.
If that is turned OFF - I get periods of "no data" usually when I am trying to navigate and the device had locked on some "Xfinity wifi " as that is a very common open wifi.
I am and most of us are "not paying LTE so we don't use it" - This feature allows for better Network switch and less periods of No-Data, IMHO

My device is a non branded edge 7, which also uses both of them simultaneously - that's a thing of beauty

That must be a regional issue. My S7e never lost a wireless connection or had problems moving between cellular and Wi-Fi. Regardless, both the radio h/w and s/w are going to be new on the S8 so things that affected previous phones aren't likely to affect it. We'll probably getting a totally different set of new issues and quirks.

As in you're in the EU and I'm the U.S. and haven't experienced what you're reporting. I also don't remember seeing chronic worldwide wireless issues on the S7e forum. So it doesn't seem like whatever the problem you're referencing is affected all S7e owners equally. And it certainly won't affect S8 owners because the radio h/w and accompanying s/w is new.

Seems like no matter what I turn off, wifi still toggles automatically, I've wiped cache, booted into safe mode, factory reset, took away permissions to system settings.
Is there a way to trace what is commanding wifi to toggle?
Maybe if I can trace it and will be able to disable it
I see that no apps have requested this through the "wifi control history"
I knew I couldn't be the only one experiencing this, so I'm glad there is at least discussion about it.
I made a related thread in the Q&A this morning before I found this thread.
I'm on the T-Mobile S8, and I do connect to a 5Ghz band. Thankfully I don't use smart network switch nor do I want my device scanning for bluetooth when I have bluetooth disabled (they say it's for "location accuracy", but it's actually for ad services).
I only disabled bluetooth scanning when bluetooth is off a few minutes before finding this thread, so I'll report back if wifi continues to drop in the coming days.

Same for me. Did you install some software update?
Well I've been messing around with this issue for hours and hours. The only solution is to set my routers to 2.4ghz because 5ghz makes this phone go crazy.
Just my 5 cents -> do this or stop wasting time until either Sammy releases a fix (doubtful) or root + custom ROMs start appearing (more likely) so a specific Dev fixes the problem.
This much money and I haveto change MY other equip to have it working.
Bah!

For those of you that are losing Wi-Fi connection and reconnecting, go into your router configuration and change the channel until you find the channel that is most reliable in your area. That's usually the main cause most of the time for disconnect issues. Change your 5Ghz channel and you most likely will find one that works fine. If the router is in "auto channel select" mode, take it out of auto and set a channel manually until you find the channel that works for your area.

WiFi strength, range, and throughput

Rate this thread to express how you think the Samsung Galaxy A70's Wifi performs. A higher rating indicates that it has excellent range, throughput, and signal strength. Like when you're taking a dump in the bedroom upstairs, do your videos have to buffer or do they come through without interruption?
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Wifi on the A70 has major issues, completely drops connection all the time, even if at full signal strength. Very very bad, I've never seen a device with wifi this bad in my life.

Strange. I've never had any issues till now. Using for 3 months
Do you have the American version? All the other threads about this issue I'm finding on Google are people with the European version, and I'm Canadian which usually gets the same as them. There's even an A70-unique setting in developer options called "wifi safe mode" made just for this device, and there's been 5 updates since launch about "wifi stability", it's got issues. I get about 1-2 drops per hour.

Not know solutions ?
No problems with wifi signal - I like A70 how it works on wifi . But we need to remember that router is important for connection quality and speed - I have tp-link Archer C1200 at home - and A70 5ghz get 433 Mb/s ~ 170 mb/s transfers while old Moto get 150 Mb/s connection and about 110 mb/s transfers . I have cable internet connection 200Mb/s .
Works fine here. I get up to 35mbyte/s. Fastest WiFi I've had on a phone. Everything is stock.
I can only get around 50mbps on Speedtest, which sucks because my old phone (a Nokia 7 Plus) can reach twice that speed.
wifi stregnth is good for me, but throughput/speed not so much..but still good.
my internet is 500Mb/s up and down.
on my Xiaomi mi 9, on 5ghz, i get 450Mb/s up and down with 1ms ping.
on A70 i get around 325Mb/s up and 350 down with 2ms ping
after november update wifi is acting up again...it is almost unbearable to use, i am loosing connection every once in a while...
You need a section just for hotspot. I have a lot of things to say about hotspot. 5GHz not showing up on Windows WiFi list. Not the case with my other 5GHz capable hotspot phones. This is an almost unspoken about issue as so few people are using 5GHz hotspots. My wife's Huawei has actual channel selection of its 5GHz hotspot. My A70 has got stuck in a rut on the channels in the mid hundred range. The low channels such as 40, 44, 48 are the best for Windows to see.
Of course 2.4 GHz AP has channel selection and auto option on the A70 but this is not very significant. Most phones do.
Most phones don't offer 5GHz hotspot. Seems to have started in the later part of the teens decade only.
To get a phone with actual channel control in 5GHz I can only suggest that you try a Huawei.
Pretty important issue, for those of us with non sim enabled computers who want the fastest internet possible in our locales.
The only thing I notice is when you log out all your samsung accounts the wifi is now all good. Just my exp but you can try
Does galaxy a70 has MIMO for Wifi .?
Seems like Android 10 Update for Samsung Galaxy A70 has fixed wifi speed sync issue for 2.4Ghz band. Now it shows full speed (150Mbps) instead of 72Mbps. Now i can reach "100Mbps" on speedtest (full bandwidth of my subscription) from my crappy wifi router (b/g/n - 150M - Max!)

When I am in some places, applications such as facebook, instagram, telegram do not work, but if I move an inch they start to work again. All this when I use the 4g / 4g + / 3g
I also noticed a certain slowness in the data connection, my previous mobile phone a mi 9 lite is much better performing. I hope it is just a youth problem and that with a modem update it is solved.

Me too, Im experiencing slow data connections even when outside. Tried to test the speed using ookla speed test and it shows less than 1mbps download compared to my oppo A37f LTE which shows 10mbps.
same me. Facebook , Instagram ,chrome not load page but my speed internet 89Mbps Dev. please fix firmware
I have the same issue. Mobile data slowing down very often or stuck and do not loading anything. Turning on and turning off flying mode solve problem for a while.
Well I was camping, and there's almost no signal so data keeps changing from 4g+ to 3g+ to E, etc... THIS IS NORMAL
BUT
When it's on 3G+ there's no connection what so ever, I get 1-2 bars of signal and I'm always not connected to the internet, this isn't a problem with xiaomi: redmi 8, note4, a1 and other brands either

Isn't? I have full signal and high speed and after second my signal drops to 2-3 bars. Then internet doesnt work at all but when I test connection with smartphone diagnostic, it says that connection works fine. When I test connection speed, there is like 1-20 Mb/s loading and almost 0 Mb/s uploading. When I turn airplane mode on and off, then connection works again with high speed and no problems for a while. With Galaxy S7 edge and ROG 2, there is no problem at all, even when I have 1 bar of signal. It looks like POCO X3 losing uploading randomly so you cant send request to open anything.
6-12 download. In countryside no upload at all almost. Whit 3G sometimes. very bad connection when gaming on desktop. Glitchy OS too. Had to reset the phone many times. Connects to mobile data auto whit no permission granted.
I have the same problem too. the data connection is very slow compare to my extra phone. The ping/latency is too high.
4G
same problem too and when i
ping to google it unstable from
request time out
To 6000+ ms
and Regular 60-100 ms
but overall it is unusable
it reused when used 3g but not great ether
I have same problem with my poco X3 do rur internet on LTE+(4g) doesnt worki but LTE+ icon on right top corner is still visible, when i turn phone upside down IT worki again , strange issue
The antennae on the X3 are pretty bad
Try Set network preferred to Lte/umts auto on testing menu. *#*#4636#*#* default with Td-scdma,
FYI, the setting is under "Testing | Phone Information [1 | 2]".
FTR, mine was was already set to "LTE/TDSCDMA/UMTS" under stock ROM v12.0.3.0 (QJGEUXM) with no SIMs.
