Question Wi-Fi defaults to "Legacy" type and cannot connect > 54 Mbps - Google Pixel 7 Pro

Got my P7P today from the Store and unlocked the BL, flashed 13.0.0 (TD1A.220804.031, Oct 2022). Fired right up and configured everything. Used cable to transfer from my DD P4XL. All was well until I started looking at my Wi-Fi speeds. I've got a P4XL and P3XL connecting to my router at max speed, but the P7P will only connect at 54 Mbps. On the P7P, under the AP settings, it says my network type is "Legacy" vs the other Pixel phones saying "Wifi 5". I have rebooted several times and reset network settings twice. I have forgotten and reset the AP many times. What I am seeing is it first connects at 866 Mbps, but immediately drops to 54 Mbps. I don't think it is a router setting because the other Pixels are working fine, as are other wifi devices in the house. Any ideas before I factory reset the phone after spending a couple hours setting it up?

Did you check the speed before unlocking the bootloader?

Sorry for the delayed response. The problem was not with the phone but with the router. My Netgear R8000 router received a firmware update on the morning before I received the phone. What I did not know was that the update DISABLED WMM, a setting under QOS. Normally a firmware update does not change settings. My search was centered around the phone, so it took a while to come down on the router. Once I toggled WMM on for all 3 bands, the problem went away and my phone now links at 1083 Mbps up/down. All is good.

Slow wifi on N5

After being connected to WiFi for a while the wifi speeds drop to less than a quarter of their normal speeds, e.g. at home 6 Mbps drops to 1.4 Mbps. It is the same at work connecting to an enterprise level AP (although speed drop is 30 Mbps to about 5 so less of a problem).
I know it is device related as other devices tested at the same time are at the right speed.
Toggling WiFi off then on again returns everything to normal speed. Anyone else?
It's like it reverts to power saving mode. Didn't have this problem with my 4 or current N7.

I haven't had your issue and I've been speed testing here and there all day.
Have you tried turning off wifi optimization under wifi/options?
I have turned that off now and rebooted. I turned this off the other day without rebooting and there was no difference but will see how this goes.
Thanks.

Made no difference. Got reduced speeds again.

I had similar problems when my friend connected a Blackberry Z10 to my router, constantly dropping out after about half an hour of connection, so try this:
I found that my at the time SGS2, could only connect in 'g' mode, whereas her BB was connecting in 'n'. I believe this was confusing the crappy B.T. router I have, so I changed the settings of the router to only accept 'g' connections. Problem solved for me.
Worth a try anyway. Especially if the other devices connecting to your router are a bit older and only use a 'g' connection.

There are no drops in WiFi, it just slows. All my other devices are N too.

Odd, I don't have this problem. The wifi a runs at full speed even in low signal areas. Maybe it's something to do with the router?

I have this on my home WiFi with both the Nexus 4 and the Nexus 5. Both are connected to 5GHz 802.11n on a dual-band Netgear N600/WNDR3700.
Performing a test just after boot, the speeds reported by Ookla's speed test app are:
Nexus 4: 46Mbps dl / 12Mbps ul
Nexus 5: 82Mbps dl / 12Mbps ul
After some period of time, the results (recalling from memory) change to:
Nexus 4: 2Mbps dl / 11Mbps ul
Nexus 5: 2Mbps dl / 11Mbps ul
If I switch off WiFi and then switch it back on again, each phone will then return to its previous higher speeds.
Never have figured out exactly what triggers the slow-down; my best guess is that it's something to do with the phone going into deep sleep, or perhaps related to power-saving functions on the router.
A Linux-based laptop is connected to the same AP and I don't notice any issue with that. Don't recall the Nexus 7 having any issues either (though that can only connect to the 2.4GHz radio).
I didn't notice this on my N4, but I never checked, and in retrospect I remember having some problems streaming video when you normally would think the connection would be OK. Will give Google a call.
The problem exists on my home router, an access point I also have in the house (different manufacturer) and at work (different again).
Have tried changing to 2.4 GHz only but no luck.
Thanks.

People had EXACTLY the same problem when Nexus 10 just came out.
If interested here is the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2124485
Basically, google had to release a fix to solve this problem.
I'm noticing slow WiFi as well on my Nexus 5, with Netgear APs at home.
Also the 4G is weird - here in the UK, upload remains strong but download is slower than other phones running the same speedtest from the same location and a fair bit slower.
Will hold off judgement for now though.
Got an ASUS router at work so gonna test that.
It will not see the 5GHZ band on my Netgear WNDR4500 at all though - then again neither will my Nexus 7 2013
(My Nexus 4 does see the 5GHZ band SSID however then again probably due to different WiFi chipset or something)

Yeah been testing 4G on Vodafone today vs an iPhone 5S - getting consistently slower download speeds in the same locations on the same speedtest servers.
Has anyone else tried using the N5 in and around London on a 10mhz 800 band network (so basically Vodafone or O2)
Also is the 5Ghz 20mhz ? I seem to be getting 70mbit download on a 1000mbit connection
5ghz works on an ASUS router but seems to just be completely absent on Netgear routers (sure its a 20/40/Auto/Band setting somewhere)
Having called Google and tried the suggest factory reset, problem persists so will call again and likely try a replacement.

I wouldn't bother with RMA.
Same problem was in Nexus 10 when it came out.

i have the same problem. it also affects LTE. both cut down by a third or so after some unknown amount of time.
I don't have access to LTE, so can't comment there. I will be getting a replacement tomorrow and will report back then if it is fixed.
Also keen to see if the battery is any better in the replacement. Reports seem to vary wildly on these forums and in reviews but my finding is that the battery is no better then the N4 battery in any way.

Have y'all had Android devices in the past? As in, have y'all had Google accounts to which you've backed up your data (e.g. WiFi credentials) that automatically were transferred over to your new device?
I ask this, because I had to do a factory reset and prevented Google from backing up my data and preventing automatic restore (e.g. I unchecked "Back up my data" and "Automatic restore" before I did a factory reset).
There seems to be an issue where the restored WiFi settings don't sit well with the new device, and you have to manually input your WiFi credentials and have the Nexus 5 configure it from anew. It may also help with slow connection speeds and connection issues in general since I found that after I did this, my connection strength increased (qualitatively; I haven't done quantitative analysis) and the range at which it still connects to WiFi has increased.
Here are some links to the issue that I, personally, have run into, but near the end of the second issue tracker, someone has ADB commands that essentially accomplish the same thing (i.e. wiping all stored WiFi data)
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=58230
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=61945
Might be something to try before you send it into RMA (since it will take like, 2-3 weeks to get the replacement phone, and even then it sounds like this is a purely software issue).
EDIT: Note, that unchecking the "Backup data" and "Automatic restore" (I think doing the former will automatically grey out the Automatic restore option anyways) means you will have to reinstall all your applications manually one by one. This is probably easier if you just log onto a computer and have Google Play in a browser to download it to your device.
Furthermore, my specific issue didn't lay with slow WiFi speeds, but rather with the inability for the Nexus 5 to automatically reconnect to a WiFi router once it exited and reentered range. It was also unable to manually connect to the router unless I cycled WiFi or Airplane mode (or reboot the phone).

I always choose not to restore my backed up settings to a new device, and so manually create the WiFi connections. Doesn't appear to make any difference in my case.

I had a similar question, but I just want to know why I see 72 Mb/s connection in the info, instead of 150 or 300? Asus RT-N66U with Merlin firmware, 802.11n only, 40MHz bandwidth (but also tried 20/40MHz). All computers show 150/270/300 (I know these are just theoretical). My wireless desktop can transfer a file at 10MB/s...the N5 (and a 2012 N7, 2013 N7, GNex, and Nexus S) do about 2MB/s.
I'm having exactly the same issues as t2002 and TheFluffyOne - Just after booting I'll get >10mbps dl but after an hour or two if I run the speedtest app again it will have slowed down to <2mbps. It's horribly frustrating, hopefully it's just a software issue and will be patched soon.

[Q] Very slow wifi. Need help!!

Hey guys, so I have had my m8 ever since it came out in March and have LOVED it. Issue I'm having is as the title said, my WiFi is SLOW!! On all WiFi networks I've been on. Specifically my home network, as it's usually what I'm using. As compared to my lte connection and other phones connections anyways. It's always been kinda slow with WiFi, never knew why.. my normal speeds is around 3-15 mbps. Once in a blue moon i will see 25 download speed randomly. I think it's been getting progressively worse as it used to be bearable. But every now and then it's just horrible! I will attach a screen shot I just took with it connected to my home WiFi (50mbps Comcast). About 30 feet away from router (Linksys WRT1900AC). Less than a mbps down and up speeds. Ping ranging from 30 to 200 sometimes. Standing exactly where I was when I tested that, a s5 active got 39 and 12 and a iPhone 6 got 47 and 9 pings both below 40. And when close to the router, both of those phones get all the WiFi! Between 50-60 mbps... With 4g like 30 seconds after that test I got 54 mbps download speed.
Anyone had issues like this before? any fixes you've heard of? Thanks for reading guys
Btw. Phone is completely stock. Never attempted to root it or anything.
What Firmware, radio and rom are you on? Are you s-off?
Phone is completely stock sir. Running Verizon 4.4.4. No s off or roms installed
Same Issue!
I'm having the exact same issue. WiFi is dreadfully slow on all networks. Tried factory reset, and upgrade to Lollipop and still have the issue. I used to love this phone but now I'm about ready to throw it against the wall because of this issue. Example, this page took 4 minutes to load completely.

P900 WiFi Issues

Hi
Does anyone else have problems with their WiFi dropping or slowing? Sometimes I have to reboot my tablet to get good data rates. I can sit right next to my router and speedtest struggles to run. Reboot and I get 40 Mbps. I'm on 100mbps fibre broadband. It doesn't this on my phone so I know it's not the WiFi.
Any ideas? I've tried many ROMs, original firmware, everything.

Wi-Fi suddenly slow on my Honor 8

Hi
I bought my honor 8 two months ago, and it was working fine until this morning. The internet through the wi-fi connection suddenly became slow. It works for my girlfriend's phone, and both of our laptops, and my phone works fine in other wi-fi networks. This problem is only with our home wi-fi. I checked the speed with speedtest app, and after about two minutes of waiting, it showed the right speed, but surfing is painfully slow.
I did a hard reset on the router, and a cache wipe on my phone, but did not hard reset my phone, because it works on other wi-fi networks.
So my question is: what do you think is the problem?
Thank you for your answers!
Same problem
I have exactly same problem!
Are you using the Nougat beta on your device?
No, I'm using 6.0. Also I did a hard reset on my phone this morning, out of frustration, and still no luck.
I'm not seeing a way to pull up this info right now, but the b360 (Nougat latest beta for frd-l04) release notes mentioned that the "small-packet" wifi problem was "solved" with the latest beta. I updated to it via Charles method and the problem is solved for me. I had it in M6, N7 b320, but it went away with b360.
The way this particular problem manifested was during say, an app update of ~10 or more MB , you would only get about 300-400Kb at a time, so it was ~10 times as slow as it should be on wifi. If you turned off wifi you could see the difference because it would only take a single 10MB chunk to do the update. I don't know if it's the same problem, but it sure was a nice help for my case.
The strange thing is that my connection is normal on paper (speedtest shows the normal speed, but after about 2 mins of waiting), and download speed seem ok too. E.g. I updated one of my apps, and there was about 1 min waiting also, but then download was fast. But surfing and stuff, is slow, but just on my home wi-fi, and just for me. I it tried with different phone, it was working fine, and I tried my phone on other wi-fi network, and that was also fine. That's why I don't understand it.

My phone always showed as normal on Speedtest, which is why I think speedtest is worthless for testing speed ;. What if speedtest is just testing ping response? I don't know what it's doing, but it's a blackbox app that does what it does.
I would be more interested in app behavior results. Browsers should populate pages quickly on wifi, and if they do, then there's no good reason to go to a "speedtest". If they don't well, there's your real speedtest. Or, download something fairly big from the app store (it doesn't have to be anything you'll keep or use, just something over 10MB) and watch each chunk / packet. If they're < 500K each, then you've got that problem that I had.
Google Play uses TCP and UDP 5228 port. Maybe there is a limitation on that port. Ookla speedtest uses only port 8080. I'm not sure what's going on there. I could always see the problems on 5228.
I recently got this phone and find the wi-fi performance slow. My old xperia z2 could get the speeds I'm paying for which is 74mbs but the honour gets about 40mbs
Thank you for all your advices, but I honestly tried everything. I hard resetted my router and phone, I went through all the settings, and still the same. At this point I'm just waiting for a miracle.

Have you tried connecting to another WiFi network to see if you experience the same problem? If you do then I would contact Honor directly and ask them for assistance. They will probably request that you send your device back to them for repairs.

I tried my phone on two different wi-fi networks, and it was working fine. The problem is with only my home wifi, and only for me (2 other devices get normal speeds). And it started suddenly about 2 days ago, without any settings change in either on the router nor phone.
Since then I factory resetted the router, and the phone, and I've gone through pretty much every settings I could, and still no change.
I contacted my ISP today, they will send someone to look at my router. If they find out that the router is fine, then I contact Honor. But I really hope that the router is the problem.
I will write down the outcome of this strange problem, once it get fixed, maybe it will be help for someone in the future.
Thanks again for all your advices.

Do you have a dual band router? If you do try switching to a different WiFi band, could be that the WiFi band your Honor 8 is connected to is congested.

In that case there is definately something wrong with your router. Hopefully your ISP can fix it for you.

Question S22 Ultra (US Version) slow WiFi speeds

Hello All,
As the title says. Anyone experiencing slow WiFi download speeds? I get 50~100Mbps down and 800+Mbps up. I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max next to me and it's getting 500+ on UP and DOWN speeds. All things point to a Samsung issue, the rest of the WiFi devices are doing much better on 2.4ghz and 5ghz.
I've test various settings on the router itself. Different channels, Channel bandwidth (40,80,160) , and the issue still persists.
My router is an ASUS RT-AX82U and it's about ~10 ft from phone.
Any feedback would help. Seems like Samsung is struggling with WiFi 6 issues. My Tab S7+ can't even connect to the new WiFi 6.

My S22u connects to a Nighthawk AX5700 wifi6 router (Costco model) at 1.2 - 2.4 Gbps depending on how close I am to my router. I get 500up/500down pretty much everywhere in my house (this equates to my Fios internet speed) utilizing 160Mhz channel width. This is with no changes to my S22u wifi setup out of the box.
Also of interest is the type of phone case, if any, you are using.
I'm getting 339Mbps down 23Mbps up on Speed Test. My internal is 650Mbps, I don't have a WiFi 6 router.
Seems like this is an issue. https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S22/S22-ultra-5ghz-wifi-issue/td-p/2204964

Paying for 1 gig UP and DOWN. Ethernet PC I get ~900 UP/DOWN. Wifi on an iPhone 12 Pro Max I get ~500+ UP/DOWN. Other laptops I get similar numbers as the iPhone.
At first I thought it was the router but I did replace the ASUS with a Linksys Wifi 6E and same issue with phone. Also distance and number of devices connected doesn't matter I've tried just 1 phone 1 router and literally standing next to it same issue.
bounddyy & gernerttl can you both:
1. Post a screen shot of your connection speed next to your router like pic below.
2. Confirm you are on the latest version of ur routers firmware.

My current connection. I'm less than 4 ft. from my router.
I have a Google Nest WiFi with three mesh APs. Google automatically updates, so mine has the latest firmware.
The Google Nest WiFi is not WiFi 6e.

Ok good info. Is your backhaul from the mesh APs to your router via wired or wireless connection?
Not sure if you have installed any wifi debug/info apps? I use Net Analyzer and it would be great to see a screen shot of your 5G spectrum in graph form like below.
I have a Verizon FiOS symmetrical Gigabit link. My PC gets 900+ on both uploads and downloads over ethernet, and around 500 by 500 on wifi. My S22 Ultra Qualcomm version seems to max out at 360 to 400 down and 60 to 150 up. I have a Ubiquity Dream machine pro with their wifi 6 LR Access point (in a one-bedroom apartment, around 8 feet from the Wireless AP).
The speed test were run within a minute of each other, using the same remote server.
I wanted to remove wifi as a variable, so I tested a USB C to ethernet adapter, yet download speeds are still limited to 300, and upload jumped to 700 Mbps.
Does the S22 Ultra have some bandwidth restrictions or other issues?
I have screenshots if that helps.
Curious if anyone else has tested their S22 Ulta network speed using a USB to ethernet adapter.
Thank you,
Ryan
are u on wpa2-aes?
I have Fios 500 up/down and I get 545 up and 500 down on my S22u. Check your wifi connection speed on your phone to ensure its connected to your router at a speed that is greater or equal to your internet speed.
Just got 381/23.3 Mbps down/up (WiFi); and my Tab S7 is getting 355/22.3 Mbps down/up (WiFi). Both were about three feet away from the router.
As a comparison, my Dell desktop is getting 476/22.4 Mbps down/up (wired).
I consistently at or near the bandwidth I am paying for. I have Google Nest WiFi with three mesh points. I am paying for 400/20 Mbps down/up.

So again, check your wifi connection speed on your phone to ensure its connected to your router at a speed that is greater or equal to your internet speed. Settings->Connections->Wifi->Your SSID->gear.
This will show you the connection speed between your phone and the router. If this is less than your internet speed then you will never get what you paid for. Most wifi speed issues are within the home wifi network, not the phone.
Btw, my phone connects to my home wifi6 network between 1.2 -2.4Gbps so achieving the full 500 up/down speed I'm paying for to the internet is not an issue.

866 Mbps connection to my router, Google WiFi Nest is not WiFi 6. Even if it was WiFi 6, I won't get faster than what my ISP provides, which is 400/20 Mbps.
P. S. I have the Verizon S22 Ultra.

I have a Verizon FiOS symmetrical Gigabit link. My PC gets 900+ on both uploads and downloads over ethernet, and around 500 by 500 on wifi. My S22 Ultra Qualcomm version seems to max out at 360 to 400 down and 60 to 150 up. I have a Ubiquity Dream machine pro with their wifi 6 LR Access point (in a one-bedroom apartment, around 8 feet from the Wireless AP).
The speed test were run within a minute of each other, using the same remote server.
I wanted to remove wifi as a variable, so I tested a USB C to ethernet adapter, yet download speeds are still limited to 300, and upload jumped to 700 Mbps.

I also have a UDMP router and Unifi U6 AP. On speedtests (not WiFi link speed), My S22U Snapdragon can reach 1.9 Gbps on 160MHz channel width and 900 Mbps on 80MHz channel width. Download/upload speeds are the same for me.
There are no bandwidth restrictions. The problem is your Wi-Fi setup. Make sure you're using 80MHz channel width and a relatively clean Wi-Fi channel (check with WiFi Analyzer app to find cleanest channel). Also make sure to test in the same room as AP with a clear line of sight to see maximum throughput.
