Sync problems on particular wifi network - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After Lollipop update (via ota) I'm getting strange issues with syncing of different accounts (gmail, cloudmagic, whatsapp...) on my work wifi network. Everything is fine when I turn off wifi and switch to 3G ...I'm getting all emails, messages.... Also my colleagues have no issues with older android versions. On my home wifi no issues either.
After OTA update I have done factory reset to start "clean".
Is anyone experiencing similar issues. I found one discussion regarding this ( https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/nexus/hfEp9s5vxhI ) ... but still I can't find solution.
Any help would be appreciated.

[Q] samsung galaxy s wlan connection issue

dear all,
greetings, i need your help in an issue i am facing, i bought a galaxy s1 and started it on home wlan and it worked just fine, then tried it on my carrier gprs and also it did fine my gmail account was synced normally and all other google service worked just fine, the issue started when i connect it through my corporate wlan, the handset cant sync with google account even if i configured the internet proxy and the port it start the internet browser well, but cant sync with the gmail it keep saying network error occurred, i thought its an internet security issue till i tried a friend galaxy s2 which when was connected to the same wlan it worked perfectly, synced the gmail account and all other services worked just fine without even setting up any proxies or ports like (market, gtalk,...) now i am confused since there are alot of possibilities :
1-is it a software issue since the s1 uses fouyou 2.2 and the s2 gingerbread 2.3 will upgrading solve the issue?
2-is it a hardware issue?
3-is it something that has to do rooting and unrooting issue? i am new with android so i will as you for your patience since its a very big and complicated interface.
what can i do to findout...by the way my handset is designed for middle east so it did not have market app.thats why i changed the sales region to xga when i started it to have market.
i did not use the same simcard i used when i started the handset at the first time still that wasnt an issue for it synced normally on different simcards whether on gprs or home lan....thank you for your support.

[Q] Wifi Asus Transformer problem.

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).

[Q] Wifi closes when I open the email

Hi,
I tried a search in the threads but could not find a similar issue.
I have updated to the 4.0.4 version from the official site.
Now everytime I start the built in email, the wifi connection drops. Specifically, when I try to sync the emails using the wifi. If I use the 3g everything works fine.
I have deleted the account and entered it again but the problem still occurs.
Any suggestions?

Internet connectivity problems

Hey guys,
I have a problem with my nexus, I've noticed that my internet on my phone is acting quite...strange to say. I have a dual band router(d-link 880l) and on my phone I only use the 5GHz one. it's the only device in my home that has problems.
The problem is that when searching something using the google bar it takes ages until I get the desired result, on youtube app sometimes when I open it ,it won't load anything,the second I close it and open it again it works,some videos just refuse to start until i restart the whole application, sometimes whatsapp doesn't connect to their server I have to restart the app to get messages, or to see las act of people,on facebook messenger is the same story,when i send a message it won't send ,it acts like I have no internet connection,until I restart the app. Ironically I get CONSTANT 81mb/s download and 91mb/s upload in speedtest.net app.
I really don't know what to do ,i've forgotten my network,tried connecting on 2.4GHz,put my wif i mode only in 2.4GHz,enterd recovery cleard cache partition,unninstaled whatsapp,youtube,fb messenger,google app,deleted all google play services data,restarted phone,neither of those fixed it...
Can you help me...?
Are you running the latest stock ROM or some other ROM/kernel combination?

I'm running rastapop 5.1.1 LMY48I with elementalx 4.04 since august 2015 with no fancy kernel settings or mods, just adblock and xposed over the top.I started to have this problem since november.
I did a factory reset on the router and I still have the problem.
To rule out software being the problem, I recommend flashing back to stock to see if the issue goes away.
I own a D-link DIR-850 (dual band AC router as well) and I am experiencing kind of the same problems. I have a Nexus 5 with latest firmware (MMB29S) but have had these issues for a while already. My girlfriends HTC One mini suffers from these problems as well. Most annoying is the seemingly random disconnects from whatsapp, I guess caused by Google Play Services being unreachable as at that same time also the Play store and other services relying on it are unreachable. Not sure whether this is an Android bug or caused by a bug in the Dlink router, which off course has been reset to factory defaults and checked for updates several times
Strange thing is that at the times that the Play Services are unreachable, other (plain internet based) services such as browsing with Chrome are working just fine.
I did some research on this compatibility issue between an android phone and a d-link router after I discoverd I'm not the only one.
The problem turned out to be some bug that is present in a way or another in android since lollipop , I think that lollipop(my case) is getting stuck when trying to do a DNS lookup ,but the problem is that it only happens on my home network, I don't have any problems at my friends wi fi or a public one. So my router isn't playing well with lollipop or the other way around.
The only solution I found to this problem is to disable ipv6 on your router or on the phone. So I did ,made a script that changes a value in a file, here it is : "echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/wlan0/disable_ipv6". With this I disabled ipv6 protocols on my phone(i've verified "disable_ipv6" file just to be sure that the value is "1") . Everyone bragged about it that it sloved their problem. Well guess I'm not that lucky,the problem still persists on my phone...
I've tried everything in the book...guess that this brand new 150 dollar router is not that impressive as they say...
I don't really want to factory restore my phone,I want to be my last option...the guy above me said that it did the factory reset thing and it didn't work so guess that it isn't an option after all...
If someone can help me(us), i will be very pleased...
At my workplace we have an Asus RT66NU providing the wifi, where I have never had any problem with this.
As you are suspecting it has something to do with the ipv6 stuff, I'll be experimenting with this a bit to see if something changes. First test is putting the autoconfiguration setting to SLAAC+stateless DHCP.
Next step will be disabling ipv6 at all.

I tried with PPPoE( my internet connection ) on ipv6 that is shared with my ipv4 session with SLAAC + stateless DHCP and stateful DHCPv6 . At first it was promising but in the end it didn't really solve my problem. Just for the record ,I had my ipv6 settings before on local connectivity only .

Wifi problem - on-off and no wifi hotspot, phone restarting - Please HELP

Hello everyone,
me and my wife enjoy our htc U11, but few days ago mine start playing up - wifi have difficulties to connect its doing like on-off-on-off, and after while connect to router, doing same thing at work and home too, and I really can't use any longer wifi hotspot, and phone restart at least once a day, not very happy, but today my wife experienced same problems as I have few days, must say both phones bought in UK from two different companies and different times, both are on stock rom, completely standard phones, I am only using modified camera apk, can anyone give me advice what it could be?, I do not have even Facebook or Twitter account, so can't be related to these apks. Was going to do hard reset tonight, but after my wife told me she got same problems and she use her phone very little, I am not sure if hard reset will resolve problems. I will welcome any help...
Forgot to say we are on 2.33.401.10
Many thanks..
Settings>more>data usage>network restrictions>check to see if the network has been restricted.
Settings>more>three dots (overflow menu) and hit "reset network settings"
Have you reset the router, checked the network settings are correct (if you use dhcp just reset your router).
If the ssid has spaces or characters/symbols then this can cause issues.
I have personally known routers that use signal binding to run at speeds incompatible with some devices. Especially those with 1gb interfaces. *cough netgear*.. Falling back to a basic setup helps significantly.
A factory reset will probably solve it but you'll lose your data. That is the last ditch effort.
Hi, what is latest update for this rom?, as we can get no ota update, if you point me right direction, will be great, and I will update at least one phone, and see difference. I already reset home router, I reset network setup on phones, wipe cache on both phones, still problems, and even when I am not at home, wifi playing, as I can setup wifi hotspot and I am away from any wifi. Many thanks..
Sorry that was my bad, I forgot I was looking at my m9, not my U11. You are up to date.
My post has been edited. Follow that.
To have the same problem on both phones is very strange indeed. It must be network settings causing the problem unless you have an app running that monitors WiFi in some way..
I, too, have been having WiFi problems all of a sudden. I am not stock, I'm on viper with EAS kernel, but was running it all just fine for a while then without changing anything, I have the same problem.
Still looking for fix, but no luck so far, tonight I reset router just to be sure, but problem is still there, I am sure sooner or later I will find out what is behind this problem.
