WiFi strength, range, and throughput - Samsung Galaxy A70 Real Life Review

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.

Ohh. Nope I have the GM version (India) and I don't have that option in settings

i am loosing wifi connection many times a day....it's bad...

I have also this problem
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!)

[Q] Maximum connection speed = 3G? Why?

Hello,
I've just followed the procedure explained in this thread LINK in order to enable the network sharing option on my Samsung Omnia 7, but now there's something a bit strange.
Also, I want to thank the author of that procedure (can't post in his thread because of the limitations of my new account).
If i tap the "Cellular network" tab in the phone settings now I see a new selection tab named "Maximum connection speed", wich I haven't got before doing the procedure:

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
(before the update I only had got - at this height of the tab - Roaming options and Network selection...no trace of that "Maximum connection speed")
If i tap the selection box i can choose from 2 options: E (edge) and 3G.
I don't see H (hsdpa) option and now 3G is the chosen option.
If i use my connection i see the 3G icon at the top of the screen become H, as always, but I'm confused and I don't know if the navigation speed is the same as before...
Is that normal? How can I test my speed?
By the way I made a backup, so I can restore my phone if it's needed!
3G is HSDPA (in some countries 3.5G/HSDPA+). 3G is only the network used for texting and video/calling, whereas mobile internet is connected through the form of HSDPA via 3G network. It's like 2G/EDGE and 4G/LTE.
I thought that selection would have affected the navigation speed, but not in this case.
Thank you!

I also noticed this... But I also noticed that, near the bars that represent the signal quality, there was written 3G+

Yes, it's a Samsung related thing.
They chose to use 3G+ instead of H to refer at HDSPA...meh.
By the way, using the "Advanced Configuration" homebrew I was able to change that weird icon from 3G+ to the classic H.
Ps. Magus, sei tu? XD
A few questions asked here:
Why did this option appear?
It's actually supposed to be there, but some OEMs or mobile operators hide it by default. Many homebrew tweaks un-hide it (it's just a single registry value).
What does it do?
It lets you force the phone to use 2G (including EDGE) instead of 3G (including HSPDA). There are two reasons you might do this: to save battery (3G is a battery hog, relatively speaking) or because you have a very marginal 3G signal but a strong 2G one and therefore actually get a better connection if you force the phone to use 2G.
How can I test my speed?
There are a number of ways. The marketplace has several apps for bandwidth testing (though some provide wildly inaccurate results). You can also tether your laptop to the phone (using either the USB cable and a small tweak, or using the built-in Internet Sharing feature over WiFi) and then use a standard bandwidth test site like http://speedtest.net (which uses Flash and is therefore not usable in the phone's browser).
Hope that helps!

[Q] Snapdragon S4 unlock GLONASS ?

Hi, i am new here thefore i cant post in "One S Android Development"
I KNOW that (HTC one s)Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 has support for GLONASS. can it be unlock ?
anyone known what soundchip it got onboard also ?
Appreciate the help.
Are you sure it needs unlocking? Mine said on the box "Supports GPS/GLONASS". Not that I have any idea how to check.
Sent from my HTC One S using XDA
Download GPS test from the market.
Fire it up and see if you log any satellites numbered 65 to 88.

My Htc one s, havnt arrive yet, i still waiting, i think it would come next week, then i can do the gps testing. It would be nice to hav a good gps.
I am using Samsung galaxy s1 and its worthless in sweden..
Btw i hope Snapdragon s4 get Wolfson audio chips
My HOS IS showing satelites number 69 and 71... are those GLONASS sats
Out of 15 satellites that I could see, 6 were #65 or over. Looks like GLONASS is working fine.
Edit: Just to clarify, I'm in Japan, but my phone came from the UK so is the European model (No One S for the poor Japanese, lol)
So it works completely transparently to the user and does not need special software or adjustments, it will just work by "supplementing" the accuracy reported through the GPS interface and therefore also every navigation software etc. will automatically benefit from it?
That is kinda cool if its the case.
This is going to be GREAT for once i can use "GPS" correctly in sweden, anyone knowns more about the Sound chips onboard the S4 ?

Yup, looks like it. There is no separate setting to "Enable GPS" / "Enable GLONASS". Although rather than being transparent to the user, it is more like hidden from the user. I guess the average user neither knows nor cares about GLONASS, as long as the thing shows them where they are on the map.
I do not get satellites > 28, but total 22 visible and 14 in use.
Don't know if GPS or GLONASS - but 22 are a lot
My HOS consistently sees ~17-21 even when indoors although while indoors I get no GPS lock even though GPS Test says that it uses ~5 satelites. But once I take it to a window it gets a good lock immediatly.
My old Desire and my TF101 only sees ~4-5 when doing the same test. So it seems that the HOS really are using GLONASS too.
Yes they do. With GPS only I never had a situation where I could "see" more than 6-8 sats at once with a mobile and not all of them had a fix/lock because the signal was too weak (only once supposedly had 9, reported by an Audi in-car satnav with dedicated external antenna, but I am not sure if that was fixed sats or just the visible ones). I think as of now I think there are less than 30 functional sats in orbit globally and the GPS architecture hovers around an amount of 32-36 sats maximum (with higher coverage of landmasses and lower coverage on the oceans).
Also, GLONASS will be very beneficial to anyone in the upper northern hemispere, and lower southern hemispheres as the system is of course globally active, but due to sat orbit inclination and distance (orbit heigth) it allows a better coverage of the regions closer to the polar regions, while GPS seem to be more designed to cover the "middle ground" and also have a lower orbit.
And when the US went to war in the middle east, I think I have read about some of the satellites being repositioned to give a better signal feed to the troops and equipment in that area, therefore automatically neglecting the rest of the world a little bit.
This is a really good feature I did not even read about in the reviews prior to purchasing. I pity the folks with the One X who don't have that... It will double satnav usability and accuracy even in less than optimal conditions (cities with high buildings covering satellite line of sight etc.)

[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 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!

[Q] Wifi Roaming

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.

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

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.

Problem with 4g/4g+/LTE in home

Hello, i have a problem with my data connection when I am at home, i have tried several cell phones and with none I have encountered these problems I would like to know if anyone has other problems and if it is a hardware problem or a software problem.
What kind of problem do you have?

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.

Can you people post speedtests or something?
Signal is maxed out where I live and speed is also fine 50mbps down and up
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.

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.

1- in out door with good signal it is good
2- in indoor with good signal the download is good the upload is weak
3- in indoor with average signal the download still good but the upload is very poor
and affecting in the overall performance
