When i use WLAN the 3G/GSM connection is lost after a few minutes and i have to reboot the phone to get it back. Does anybody know why this might be? Could it be the Radio?
I think its turning it off because your connecting to the internet through the wifi, when you disable wifi it should re-enable the 3g connection, but if it doesnt you can turn on the data connection...
thats what it sounds like is going on from your post. When I turn on wifi it will drop the data connection but has always reconnected to it once I disable wifi or I go outside of my wifi's range and something try's to connect to the net...
Yes, it is logical, you could not have opened two types of connection concurrently. One type closed another one.
ive had the same problem, when i connect to wi-fi i lose the data connection and it doesnt let me browse until i turn wi-fi off...i dont understand the point of wi-fi if u cant browse with the speed since the data connection is lost?
Thanks men! By turning on the data connection after i used wifi it reconnected!

What Wifi allows you to do us connect wirelessly to another connection, at home its my DSL, which is much faster than the edge network, and if I did not have an unlimited data plan wouldnt add to my phone bill. In that way its very usefull. Seeing how its faster and available at home or in places where your cell signal might not be strong or available you can use it to get online.
But you need to tell it your no longer using wifi for it to reconnect through the network to deliver data to you again.

ok so when it comes to wi-fi im a big newbie, i have a tmo wing and have flashed (upgraded) rom...i also have dsl at home how is it i can connect and access this...when i search for wi-fi it usually only picks up my neighbors connections never my own...?
If you have a wifi router or your modem has a build in wifi option you go into your modem to set it up. Most modems / routers come with it broadcasting the SSID so you should see something (usually the default is the name of the manufacturer)
If you have your paperwork you can open your web browser and type in the address to open the internal OS and make changes as you see fit. For example mine is a linksys and its default address was http://192.168.1.1, most routers used to default to that but since a lot of modems are coming out with build in os and firewalls they have that IP so routers can be changed like mine. Once in the OS you can set up your pw so no one else can play with your settings
Navigate to the Wireless section and there should be a bunch of settings. I renamed my WiFi name to match my home network, and disabled the SSID broadcast. Then changed the chanel for some of my other devices, if you dont have anything that requires this leave it alone. Then enable WEP or other protection, 128 bit wep is pretty decent and anyone hacking through it will probably be disappointed with your lack of juicy goods.
Once you have the SSID and the Key encription you go to your phone and mirror the information into the WiFi settings. The web will be a 26 or so string of letters / numbers that will equal the password you set. These must be typed in perfectly or it will not work, took me 6 or so tries to get it typed in correctly but once its in you wont need to do it again unless you reset the phone or change the network settings.
If all that goes through open IE on the phone and hit up google or something, if it loads your online.
Thats a jumbled and messy tutorial, I can fix it to be more user friendly if you need me to do it, but with you not seeing any SSID but your neighbors your wifi is either non existant or disabled...

thanks for the quick reply, ill give it a try...might need the more user friendly version lol sorry
Its no problem, the biggest thing will be weather or not you have a wifi router or modem. Then depending on the brand the IP you have to type in to log into the modem. Each router / modem will have paperwork with it that tells you how to do it, some are different but thankfully most are the same.
The un is usually blank and the pw is usually admin, sometimes now they dont even put one unless you specify it. Once your in the OS its pretty self explanitory, there are lots of things to not mess with, but in the wifi area you can look over my post and figure most of it out,
if you get hung up on somethin just post what it is and ill see what I can do
Hello
My N1 can connect easily to all kind of wifi routers and modems without problem but not with my fitness club's one, they have a Linksys N160.
My N1 can detect the signal,enter the password but then it's stucked with the message ''getting ip...''
Where is the problem? is it a know hardware or software compatibility stuff?
Sometimes rebooting the wifi router helps. Also make sure that when the guy over at your fitness club reboots the router you don't have the wifi of the club saved. delete the saved wifi profile, reboot the wifi router and then try. Cheers.
Already tried it several times. I saw that OS4 of iphone/ipod have the same problem with router enabling Wireless-N, I will ask him to limit the router to B/G
I also had similar problem with Linksys WAG54G2 (at latest firmware). Then I changed to much cheaper adsl router, TP-LINK WD-W8960N and no more connection problem.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
I had problems using my Nexus One on my SMC Barricade 802.11b/g/n router when 802.11n was enabled. Turned it off; problems were gone. I don't think that works well yet, though some people have said otherwise. Could be a router-specific issue.
Ok so it's a WAG160N to be specific.
He tried to use mixed B/G instead of mixed (which would imply N too) but it still stuck at getting ip...
I told him to throw this router in the garbage because anyway SE and HP mobiles can't connect too,but he said he would do it but his boss will never accept to pay a penny more
My parents had a router that did exactly the same, my phone got stuck on Obtaining IP, whilst the missus 5800 connected and broswed just fine.
It was a crappy old thing and they replaced it the other week, now I can connect and browse just fine.
I also use a linksys WAG160N.
bought a nexus one, could not for the life of me get an internet connection.
turns out dns on router is poofed, so i just set DNS from my isp manually on the nexus one together with a static ip and booya interent at full 802.11n speeds.
sometimes its the simple things.
This sounds similar to when I set my router to channel 13 or whatever the max was on it. My N1 would only sometimes get a connection, but would eventually drop it and stay off. Solved it by selecting a lower channel (WifiAnalyzer suggesten channel 1 as the best alternative to channel max) on the AP.
I can see that in CM6 nightly that I have since started using I can choose regulatory domain, and thereby open up channels previously blocked. If you can't change anything on the AP this might help you solve the problem on your end.
So suggestions if none of the posts above me provide a solution is to run WifiAnalyzer and see how the channel-graph looks.
I just got my self an Asus N12 router/repeater and already set it up for repeater mode, verified with a laptop places on the house that formerly had very low signal now shows almost a full bar now the problem I have is that the Galaxy Note seems to only want to connect to the main router which gives it like a very low or even dropped signal, using an app called wifi analizer it can show both my main router and the repeater ( both have the same SSID and only shows a different mac address of some sort, the repeater is actually detected giving off good signal but then again it always connects to the main router.. I never had to setup anything on the laptop it just gets better over all signal.
EDIT:
This is what Wifi Analizer sees
Home (00:23:59:11:11:71)

first one is my primary router and the 2nd one is my asus, the note always prefers to connect to the primary router and ignores the signal from the repeater.. the laptops on the other hand get the signal boost!
Good thread to second the question.
Is it possible to set the Roaming Aggressiveness for the Note?
In simpler words - if i have two signals (say, identical as the OPs config) i want to switch between them before the connections to the connected one has been dropped. In other words - is there a way to switch WiFi networks beneath signal strength value or on better signal from known network?

To use it, open it, Menu, Preference, Access Point(AP) and choose your preferred network.
It would be nice if I could set up multiple preferred access points, but I can live with the inconvenience of choosing a network while I'm travelling. I was getting annoyed with having to keep doing it at home though.
Hope it will resolve your problem.
You could try this with the free Wi-Fi Rules (a WIFI Manager) app in the market.
It allows you to set connect priorities...
Or even Wif-Fi scanner wRecX(Free) where your device can connect with the retrieved access points specified in the list...
That is annoying! I just bought a repeater. I guess I'll be having the same problems ...

I will try both solutions once I have my repeater up and running again, It is currently used as my primary router as it gives a better over all coverage compared to my old router but I will go back to using the repeater when I have the time to do so.
tried a different ssid on the repeater?

A repeater automatically configured to have the same SSID at least on the Asus repeater mode, Access Point mode on the other hand allows you to use a different SSID but you need a LAN cable to connect to it.
After setting it back up, I've already figured it out that if I needed to connect to my repeater I must have a static IP settings on my phone.. for some odd reason it does not provide any IP from the DHCP of the primary router, so when I go up a floor I just need to reconnect manually to the primary router by turning the wifi toggle off then on again.
I have exactly the same issue, Static IP works but Notes can't pick an IP while connected to the repeater only work workarounds I found 1. static ip, 2. setup DHCP on the repeater too.
and I hate both
did you made any progress on this ?

Static IP is the only work around I found for this to work, my laptop though connects to the repeater with out issues and the need for static IP. Same issue with the Galaxy tab7.7 Im guessing this could be an andriod/samsung issue.
There is a known issue with some Samsung Android phones, including Note, failing to support BSSID roaming. That is were the wifi device hands over between separate APs with the same SSID.
More info here: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=12649
You could set your repeater to use a different SSID, if supported. I have had success with BSSID roaming when using Imilka's CM9 build for the Note.
Hope that helps.

Thanks to both, yes all other devices works just fine here too. Just my note and wife's S2 having problems
Good to know it is a bug and sad to notice still the same in ICS

Hey guys, I got a problem with wifi on my One. The thing is I got a couple of wifi routers in my house (one can't cover the entire building) and they're both broadcasting the same SSID, password etc. basically one is connected via RJ45 to the other and set up exactly the same way. Problem is when I move around the house and lose connection to one of my routers and the phone automatically connects to the other all my connections on the phone stop working and I have to turn my wifi off and on again. Same thing happens when I'm at my university, each floor has 2 wifi routers on it and phone tends to jump between them screwing up the internet connection each time. I know it might not be the biggest issue in the world but still it's quite annoying especially since my old SGS didn't have this problem. My phone is not branded and of course up to date. Thanks for any advice.

From my experience after installing a lot of different wifi's in different operation modes, it all depends on how exactly the routers have been setup.
But to answer your initial question- the topic at hand; as long as the wifi's broadcasts the same SSID, you cannot choose which of the two individual routers you want to connect to. Please someone correct me if I'm wrong, but afaik this is not possible. If you want the possibility to choose, then set them up with different SSID's. This would be the _easiest_ solution, just make sure they broadcasts at different frequencies with at least 5 channels apart, i.e. channel 1 and 6, or 6 and 11, or 1 and 11. These are the most popular ones in the 2.4 GHz spectrum. If you use 5 GHz you have a lot more to choose from.
Now, if it's important that your network works seamlessly (with the same SSID), I can provide a step by step guide upon request.
But the solution to your current problem, from my experience; yes you have to turn the wifi off and then on again to "force" the wlan-card on your cell phone to -faster- connect to the closest router, otherwise it will take maybe 15-45 seconds before it does this automatically. It's basically the same with computers. This mostly happens if the wlan-card are within range of both networks, but it will try to stay connected to current one before changing.
And there are some important guidelines to follow when you connect one router to another if they are from the same brand (because of the ip-range and gateway). I once had to setup 8 wifi-routers in a house, because of the size and the thick concrete walls (same SSID)...
The problem is my laptops and other phones don't seem to have this problem, also the phone doesn't 'fix' itself after 40 or so secs it just stays broken as far as I've noticed forever (or at least till i leave my house). Also it doesn't have a problem connecting to the other router, it loses connection, looks for available networks, finds my other router, connects and... nothing works. Exact same thing at the university, finds routers, connects with 5/5 bars and it just doesn't work.

Are you sure you have it setup with DHCP and not some static ip-settings? Can you post some screenshots of your wifi-settings?
If you haven't tried already, get your phone to "forget" it's settings so you have to reenter the password and make sure it's set to DHCP. But first take out the power from both your routers so they get a reboot, and make sure the ethernetcable is connected from one of the LAN ports on the main router connected to the internet (from your cable/dsl/fiber-modem), and in to the WAN/Internet port on the secondary router. Btw what routers do you use as master and slave?
Yes of course I have the routers set up just like you say And yes I'm using DHCP on both of them. They are Airlive 1600GL with tomato rom as main and WR740N as secondary. I took screenshots of what seemed relevant sorry the main router's settings are not in English but it seems that would require me to reflash it with a different rom.

These are Google DNS.
I would do it simple and solve it by changing the SSID on the slave router to something different, like wireless2, and change channel to 1. Or change the channel on the master router from 8 to 11. Your phone will probably change from one network to another faster this way, or it's at least easier for you to manually choose.
If that doesn't help, and the network is 100% problemfree for other wireless devices, I guess it must be a firmware or hardware problem with your One's wlan-card. Most likely firmware.
I will try it in the morning but still I'm pretty confident it's not the matter of setting up my home network but rather One's software bug. I can't say with 100% certainty right now but I don't remember having this issue before the update to the newest Android version.
Both routers need to be on the same subnet, enable dhcp server on one and disable it on the second one. Also set the second one as an access point only with a static ip in the same subnet.
The problem you have now is that wireless clients must negotiate a new ip when switching routers because of different subnets assigned to each.
Let me know if you need more details.
But still that would fix the problem at my home, what about when I'm somewhere else?
What ROM are you running? I leave wifi enabled all the time and haven't had any issues moving between networks, it automatically connects when another network is in range.
Android 4.3 with Sense 5.5 all stock not even rooted.
Since your completely stock it should just work. I'd try fixing the home network first and see if that solves the issue at home, then move on to trying to figure out the network issue at school.
Router1 - master
Internet connected to wan port
Cable from lan port to a lan port on router2
Dhcp: enabled with an ip range of 192.168.1.100 and up
Lan ip 192.168.1.1
Channel 1
Router2 - slave
Nothing connected to wan port
Cable from Router1 lan port to lan port on this router
Dhcp: disabled
Lan ip 192.168.1.2
Channel 11
Set ssid and wpa settings the same on both routers.
With this setup clients can hop from one access point to the other without a dhcp request or ip change, should switch within seconds.

Tried that setup for many times over the years I've worked with routers, from my experience that is unstable.
I've been getting a slow to fair connection on Steam Link, which really bothers me. I have 1GBPS WiFi from Xfinity with 40MBPS upload speed, both of which should allow me to connect to my computer very well. My computer is hardwired via ethernet, so that's not a problem, however Steam Link never labels my connection "Good." I have heard that this is the result of the WiFi on board Android opting to pick 2.4Ghz, and I've been looking to disable it. I couldn't get the package to install on Fox's Magisk for the 2.4Ghz WiFi disabler add on, so I searched around the forums and checked both my settings, as well as developer options. I even looked in data/misc/wifi, but there wasn't anything there I could tinker with to help with this. I did turn WiFi safe mode on in hopes to improve the stability of my device's WiFi, but this is as far as I've gotten.
Does anyone have suggestions for disabling 2.4Ghz or otherwise increasing my WiFi speed on here? I would really like not to have to seperate the bands manually, as last time that caused a host of problems with other people's devices in my household.
For what it's worth, and I'm aware this doesn't answer your question directly, nor help you right away, but my router allows me to use a single SSID for both 5GHz and 2.4GHz, and it automatically connects at the highest frequency a device can handle.
My point is that I don't think the issue is Android, because I've consistently gotten 5GHz Wi-Fi on my Pixel and Samsung devices in the last four years I've had this router.
I know you already discount this possibility but just for anyone else who comes across this...
Other than possibly buying a different router (I use Synology routers, and they just came out with a new one that I might upgrade to sometime), another potential workaround is for you to configure your router to use different SSIDs for the two frequencies, and then just never connect from your Tablet to the 2.4GHz SSID. I know this might be a PITA or possibly even just not a realistic solution, depending on how many other devices (smart devices) you already have configured to connect to your existing SSID.

I mean, the two seperate SSID's is a valid solution, just one I'm not currently willing to use.
Here's something strange that made me believe that it's an Android issue. I previously used Steam Link on an IPad and got a good connection, I then moved over to Android and don't. It's very bizarre. I also can't backspace in Chrome Remote Desktop on Android for some reason. Also bizarre.
I do totally want a new router, but I'm tapped out of money for the foreseeable future anyway. We have the most up to date Xfinity router though, which I think is from 2018 or some such thing, to its credit, the internet almost never disconnects, and when it does, it fixes itself within around 60 seconds. Previous xfinity routers would disconnect frequently, and would require a reset to get working again.
Easiest is to have two different SSID's and different password for each. That way your galaxy tab will only connect to 5GHz and won't use 2.4GHz as long you don't connect to it with password for it.
Since if you name 2.4GHz and 5GHz same SSID then it will connect to 2.4GHz or 5GHz and keep switching since both have same SSID and password.
