[Q] Help! Very bad wifi signal at 2,4Ghz? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all,
I just bought a Oneplus One.
But when I tried to connect to my home Wifi (which is 2,4Ghz, and no options to use 5Ghz) it didn' t saw my router.
Now I downloaded Wifi Analyser, This is showing me that I only have a connection with my router if my phone is only a few centimeter/inches away from the router.
This problem is not in my router because i have this with all the wifi connections that are using 2.4Ghz.
All the wifi connections that use 5ghz are working fine.
I've already changed the channels on my router, which didn't make any difference.
I also did a factory reset, still nothing.
I also changed the settings of my phone to only use 2,4Ghz wifi.
I set my wifi performance to his max but still only connection with my router if I hold my phone a few centimeter/inches away from it.
Does anyone have any ideas that I can try? Its really annoying that I can use wifi
Thanks for your time!

[Q] WiFi disconnects while showing it is connected only on Android

Hi,
I have multiple devices at home using the WiFi fine (iPad, Laptops...)
But with two android devices (Nexus 5 and Galaxy S 4, both on unmodified) I have the same problem.
It connects to the network, and works just fine, but after some time, there isn't any internet connection, although it shows as if it's still connected.
By disabling and enabling Wifi I get internet connection again, but it's really annoying.
Here's my setup:
Edimax router as AP
2.4 GHz (B+G+N)
Visible ESSID
Channel number 6
Encryption: WPA 2 (AES) pre-shared key (passphrase)
No MAC Filtering
EDIT: This router is a switch with wireless, it is connected to a diffrent router that is connected to the internet.
What can I do? Should I modify any of my WiFi settings?
Thanks!
did you try to disable energy saver?

If asking you're whether I had disabled the WiFi optimization in the WiFi settings, yes I have...
I have just only remembered that this router is actually a switch with wireless. The internet is connected to the other router, which is connected to the router i'm asking about (EDIMAX) which acts as a switch.

[Q] Connected to WiFi and no Internet access, how to fix?

Dear XDA members.
I purchased my D820 Nexus 5 a couple of days ago, connected to my home router to set things up but then I noticed something, the device is connected to the router in every single room in the house with at least a fair-strength connection but I actually don't have Internet access unless I'm about 6-10 ft away from the router which is a bother.
Things I tried:
-Restarted router
-Connected to router using other devices
-Edited router settings flipping between 802.11 b/g/n bands
-Changed security type and encryption
-Used a static IP connection instead of a DHCP
-Installed two different roms to test the connection (CM11, Mahdi)
-Installed Wifi analyzer,apk to check surrounding traffic (to avoid wireless interference) and then changed router channel to a suitable one.
I have searched loads of websites and haven't found any working solutions, I'm so desperate for help.
Sorry for writing a long thread and thanks in advance.

In your phone's advanced WiFi settings there is the option to choose between 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz try those. If that doesn't work trying flipping the mobile data switch off and see if that helps.

I have tried that, no luck
What happens if you remove any security type and encription?

[Q] WIfi disconnection on certain networks

Hi everybody!
I'm using the latest build of CM11S (KTU84P), When i'm connected to my home network (using a Dlink 6740H1 router) the connection to the wireless network will stop after a few minutes.
The wireless icon will become orange and there will be no data transfer what so ever. When I'm connected to other wireless networks the phone works fine and does not disconnects.
The "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" option is checked and the "Avoid poor connections" is not checked, further more I've tried flashing franko kernel but it didn't change anything.
Other phones in the house (HTC one X) does not seem to suffer from the same problem, did anyone ran into this issue before?
Thank a lot!

*cough*
i have a similar problem with the latest rom.. KTU84Q (38R).. my wifi wont connect to my home AP.. never had this issue pre 38R.
Did you find a solution to this problem?
I have the same problem..
I am also having this problem.
I'm having the same issue with our router at work. Have you tried setting up a static IP for your home network?
problem with wifi: i connect to a network (password) and everything is ok until i go out of coverage. when i go back in area, the phone scans/finds the saved network but does not connect auto, i have to turn off/on wifi and then it connects.
on all networks, dosen't matter the router model or type of network (password or free, static/dinamic IP)
Try deleting all the saved Ap and re-add them. Seems it worked for me, now it connects to Wi-Fi. I had many saved from trips (hotels, pubs Wi-Fi with password and many free)

WIFI issue

Hi, I keep losing internet connection whenever I am on WiFi, although signal is strong and WiFi icon keeps showing full in notch. I already reset my router and network. Anything else I can do? WiFi is always on during sleep, by the way. All other devices and smartphone work fine on my WiFi network, it's only the OnePlus 6.

Some routers have a setting you must disable, or else the op6 can kill the internet for a few seconds.
LAN>Switch Control and set Nat Acceleration to Disable (on router) may not be the right path for you to go on your router but search for nat acceleration helped me on my Asus router.

Android 9 (Oxygen 9.02) wifi keeps switching between 5ghz and 2.4ghz connection

Hey everyone,
So I've been expernecing this problem for over month. Basically im connected to my wifi on 2.4ghz and suddenly my connection will drop and I check that its now connecting to 5ghz but it doesn't actually connect to it its just keeps connecting and disconnecting every second until it finally connects back to 2.4ghz. And then after few minutes of strong connection ill drop again and same thing.
Im only experiencing this at work. There isn't 2 different ssid for 5ghz or 2.4ghz just one ssid, I was able to find out that they are using dual band router so I can't change anything the router part. is there an app or some setting I can toggle with to enforce 2.4ghz band only? Ive already turned off smart switch and scanning but problem still here.
Thanks in advance!!
