I am curious how long does it take for your devices to connect to a known network.
I have a 5ghz connection and all the time, after I switch on the wifi from quick tiles it takes around 30-40 sec to connect to it. If I switch on from settings menu, it's munch more faster
Open WiFi first connects take about 15-20 seconds. Known networks takes <=10 seconds as soon as I hit the icon in the quick menu, or go into settings.

I have problems with my wifi.
My router is like 8-10 meters away and i cant connect to it , although i see it available. When i am in a room closer , like 3-4 meters away its working fine but still disconnects a lot. Whenever it disconnects i need to go to settings and press connect or wait for it to do it itself but it usually takes a while. It disconnects every minute or so , dont know why, sometimes more often sometimes it doesnt disconnect even for 30 minutes. I can live with it disconnecting but the biggest problem is that when it disconnects and i am surfing the net (using opera mini 5) i keep getting error spam : "The answering modem has disconnected , to check your connection settings and change them if needed press settings" , and another error about problem connecting to the gprs service in my home network. Is there any way to stop this spam? When i get this every f****** 10 seconds i wanna throw my phone -.-
Ah and if it changes anything , here are my settings
Connections - Connections - Advanced - Select networks
I have My Work Network in both windows
Connections- Wi-fi
In Network Adapters card i have set "my network card connects to : Work"
In Wireless Card -(name of the router) I have selected Connects to Work, Authentication WPA-PSK, data encryption TKIP ,(password).
Please help me. This disconnecting and error spam is killing me :/

Weird...
I'm still running 4.0.4. This Wifi issue started a couple weeks ago. Not sure what it's related to.
Anyways, my phone's Wifi will NOT disconnect (the App) from my Home's Router AFTER I leave the router's range. Meaning, my phone's Wifi still shows it as being connected to my router even though I'm (30) miles away at work! It shows as (1) bar and in the Settings it shows connection as POOR.
After I do a Restart the Wifi connection to my home's router disappears.
Sometimes when I come back home (in range of the router), it will NOT connect at all. It will show as (1) bar and POOR connection. It will show (1) bar even when I'm in the SAME room as the router!
Again, Restarting the phone clears up the issue and the phone's Wifi connects just fine.
What do I do to fix this ?
Comcast is my ISP, and I have a netgear router for my wireless in my house.
However, it would seem that comcast has recently put up a new wifi hotspot near my house, or extended one of their current hotspots, and my xoom keeps picking it up.
The problem is the comcast signal is incredibly weak... like half a bar weak. Where as my netgear is full bars... and yet, the Xoom will try and connect to comcast's hotspot rather then the router that is a couple feet away.
If I go into SETTINGS and 'forget' comcast, it just finds it again.
Is there some setting, or app, that would make my Xoom only connect to MY router and not comcast's when I'm home???
For some reason it's not "Forgetting" that connection. Once you forget a connection it will no longer auto connect to it. It's always going to see the signal, but after forgetting it, it should not be auto connecting.
Connect to it again, which should save it, then long press on it until it pops up a menu that contains forget / modify and click forget. See if it forgets it properly that way.
I just purchased a MiFi 500 LTE from Freedompop and have been playing around with it. It seems to work good of what I need, but I have one annoying thing I would like to see if I can bypass.
Each time I connect to the mifi, my phone (nexus 5 running stock 5.1.1) first shows a wifi icon with an exclamation point and then pops up a notification asking me to manually connect to the wifi network. Sometimes, the phone will go on and connect anyway after a few second delay. Sometimes, however, the phone will not connect, and I have to tap on the icon. When I tap on the icon, a blank page will appear. Sometimes, the blank page will immediately disappear and the phone will connect to the network automatically. However, sometimes it will not, and I have to tap on three dots in the top right corner where my options are to not connect to the network or to connect to the network as is. When I chose to connect to the network as is, it connects.
Does anyone know the cause for this? Is there some setting that I have wrong on the hotspot? Or, is this just they way these mifi hotspots are supposed to work? I was hoping it would be as seamless as connecting to my wifi router at home, where it just connects automatically as soon as it is detected.
Thanks
Hello,
My wifi sometimes does not connects automatically.
In the wifi settings, I disabled the "kepp wifi on" setting, because I do not need continouos connection. Bit when I wake up the phone, it ahould connect to the wifi network, sometimes it does, but sometimes it doesn't. Of course, network is the same home network. In the wifi settings I see the available wifi access points, but I have to click on the network to connect. But sometimes, it connects automatically when I wake up the screen
