My wifi keeps disconnecting and reconnecting - General Questions and Answers

Ever since my device got bricked and flashed the the original firmware, my connection on wifi keeps disconnecting and reconnects even though im like 10 feet away from my router. This bothers me because I cant play online games. Is there anyway to fix this?

I suggest you turn off your router (or also disconnect the cord) for 30 seconds, turn off your WiFi on your phone, then plug it back in and turn on your WiFi again and check. Otherwise it might be a phone problem.

I'll give it a try
...When im connected to other wifi network this doesnt happen.

You should consider buying a new Wireless Router which is more powerful. As your statement, that this issue doesn't happen in other WiFi network, try to check the speed of your internet, traffic, etc.

My other devices works fine

try to forget the network, restart your phone and connect again.

So the issue must be the communication between your phone and the device. Try to restart the phone, or remove your wifi, and then enable it again.

try this
go to settings> WiFi > advance > keep WiFi on during sleep > select always on

I tried, the problem is still there

problem solved and a question-why does unstable wifi mess with usb?
My phone kept getting disconnected from my computer. This was apparently happening because my wifi was unstable. Not sure why the phone disconnected, I was connected via usb. The wifi was unstable because I was using a proxy. When I use my comcast connection straight through the problems go away. If someone can explain why an unstable wifi can screw up a usb connection I'd be grateful. Windoze issues?

That could be a number of things. Only certain gear has the WPS buttons (Linksys/Cisco, I think).
1. Reset your router. If it used to work then just quit, rebooting the router usually fixes it.
1. Has it ever connected to any wifi equipment anywhere?
2. Check the security settings on your wifi router & verify you're using the same settings & key on the phone
3. Worst case, set up your wireless router to use no security & see if the phone connects. If so, it's probably your set up. Change the router back to decent security (WPA/TKIP or WPA2/AES) and make sure you set the phone up to access the wifi router with that same security.
The WPS button is located on the router itself. It should be easy to find.
Google the make and model of your router to see if you have one. If you are using your service providers router you can call them and ask them how you can connect via WPS connection

Glad it's working. Weird that it stops working at times. Might be interference from other things if, when it stops working, it's always in the same location.
Good luck

LOL, I hear ya. You might want to try using a different channel on your router. It may help if it is a problem with interference.

your problem sounds like an apn issue or provisioning problem.
are you using a stock phone? what apn is selected?

I have a similar problem. I loose data out of blue. Called Att and they informed me that my data was removed for some reason. They reconnected but ever since than, I loose data for no reason. I have to reboot the phone. Even than, my data works for only 10-30 mind and disappears. When that happens, I have to call ATT and the disconnect my phone and reconnect and it works fine for a while. I've called them 4-5 time in last few weeks. They think its the phone. They are going to send me a replacement.

Haven't done or changed anything. I have wifi on my tab turned on at all times. When I leave my house the tab disconnects and when I come home it reconnects until yesterday. When I got home yesterday I noticed it wasn't connecting, my tab recognized my home network with no problems but I had to reenter the password. Very inconvenient if I have to enter the password every time I am home.

Have you tried the obvious, reboot the router, then reconnect?
Also, does it forget the password with any other router?
I have the same problem too. And it doesn't only happen at home but also other networks.
i had noticed since the upgrade (via mobile odin), my tab 7.7 longer see the 5ghz wifi network, however my note 1 and other devices sees the 5ghz network just fine

WiFi broke after Flatline NVflash

Tablet can't seem to connect to wifi after doing the Flatline NVflash. Anyone has this issue? When nvflash was done, I reflashed TF700_10.6.1.14.10_WW_Boot_TWRP_2610 running on CROMi-X 5.0.3. Booted up to find out that wifi is not connecting. I even tried factory reset and restore my previous backup but still no luck. Don't know what else to do besides a fresh install of cromi, which I'm really trying to avoid.
I know that Flatline *uses* WiFi, but I see no reason how it could break it, at least across a reboot.
Reboot your tablet and post the output of lsmod and dmesg.
ok here's what came up after reboot

The log shows that the driver is loaded correctly, but WiFi is not turned on. What happens when you try to turn it on in Settings?

Or maybe airplane mode? if not it must be something on the router side.
Its on in settings but says "saved, secured with wpa/wpa2" with a blank wifi icon on status bar. Also nothing happens when I click connect. Airplane mode is off too

by blank you mean gray? id say its an issue with your network, try forgetting the connection and rescanning.

Well the wifi module is loading ok and wifi is scanning so there isn't an issue with the tablet. try tethering your EVOs connection to the tablet and see if it connects
Yes blank as in just an outline of the wifi icon, not greyed or color filled if it was connected with full reception
Sent from my EVO using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Forgetting connection/scan and reconnecting many times already with same results. Wifi direct on tab doesn't pick up my EVO but my EVO is able to pick up tab n connected successfully. I'm going to try uninstalling notification toggle bc that's the only thing on my tab from what I can tell that has access to network settings
Sent from my EVO using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Well just my luck....tried everything possible relating with wifi but still no connections. Guess I'll have to format sd and do a fresh install of cromi. Btw I'm on d2sd and if I were to wipe internal, does that delete the androidroot nvflash folder sitting in the internal memory?

Wi-Fi issues on CM11

Hey guys, I'm having some problems with my Tab's wifi. It stays connected for a bunch of minutes, then it disconnects and I have to reboot my tablet to make it work again. Sometimes, it reconnects right after, but the wifi icon is orange, not white. Not sure if that's causing the problem, but I use Connectify on my Windows 8 laptop, but I never had those issues with CM10.1. If that helps, I can generate a logcat, so you guys can try to detect what's going on.
Sent from my GT-P3110 using xda app-developers app
Quick update: just got in my friends' house and I've been using their router for 15 minutes. No issues for now. I'm starting to believe that Connectify is the culprit. Maybe a logcat can still help?
