What Kernel are you using, and did you apply the wifi patch if you're using 2.6.25 kernel.
If you're using 2.6.32, did you apply the androidupdate file associated with the kernel?
Need more information...

Buy a wireless router and stop stealing your neighbour's bandwitch
Jokes aside, how far away are you from the wifi router?
I usually get two bars when I'm close to my router and by close I mean from 5cm to 3 meters. I rarely get the full signal...it probably could be improved by kernel/modules but the downside would be shorter battery life.

There are numerous reasons why you only have 1 bar for wifi. It could be interference with other wifi routers in the area, using a crowded channel, bad antenna.
But I doubt it's the wifi on the phone, unless the antenna for it is damaged...
Experiment, try different channels on your router to see if you get a stronger signal, move the router around the room, and check the antennas as well.
Hope this helps.

its not my thing it worked fine on fianl dark i got all the bars i went to froyo because i dont get the close error anymore and froyo is faster and dont lag when do you thing they will fix thr problem

wifi problem 2.3.3

Regards
I have a problem with wifi after I put update on 2.3.3
whether it can solve this problem with wifi.
I always shoot and it turns the wifi network.
be a good wifi network signal then disappears

Same problem here

This is a very serious problem. Get ur act together HTC, this is just unacceptable!

Are you rooted? HTC raised the signal strength at which the connection would be dropped, there is a fix if you are rooted, otheewise you are stucm and will have to wait for HTC to correct this.
Sent from my Desire HD

Have you tried another radio? of course be careful if you do change it

same issue, though htc say that its a "new feature" to provide a seamless mobile broadband experience by automatically chosing the strongest signal. whatever you say htc
i just disable mobile data at home, so it cant jump back to 3g and stays on wifi. the annoying thing with this is that i forget to enable mobile data when leaving the house.
i hope they sort it out, and that this new feature isn't rolled out across their other products

I am having the same problem. At work, my wifi connection is weak, but was always functional. Now, I cannot connect to my work wifi. On top of that, my battery drains twice as fast on my phone, and I'm thinking that it's due to the phone always scanning and trying to connect to the wifi signal. If it's true that HTC changed the level at which the wifi signal is dropped, this was a terrible decision.

I think this may answer/point to the problem I'm having since installing the Gingerbread RUU. I use the quick settings app from the market and pre-gingerbread it used to switch between wi-fi/mobile pretty seemlessly, turning off the unused option. Now if there's no wi-fi connection that option seems to stay on (probably searching) while it's connected to mobile data. As above, my battery is draining like a sieve.

Same problem for me with Original Rom.
so i tried the Revoloution HD 5.1.4 and same problem again!

Hi guys until HTC release an OTA fix (that's if they do) the only way to resolve this is to root and then try some different ROM and radio combinations until you find one that works for you.
I find the ROM and radio from my signature work really well on WiFi but if you are going to do this make sure and root, gain S-OFF and ENG S-OFF. Also make sure you have the correct RIL for the ROM and radio that you are using
There are lots of threads on the dev section that guide you through this.

Wifi connecting
I have a similar problem with wifi connection. Only it doesn't disconnect during a connection but when establishing a wifi connection it takes much longer than it used to on Froyo. Anyone else noticed this?

i have problem too with wifi

I really hope htc has stopped the updates and resumes with a new build with the wifi problem fixed

The issue is with the Gingerbread Sense ROMs.

我更新2.3.3 是 CoreDroid_Desire_HD_GB_2.3.3_V6.2_Release_Version! wifi 目前一切正常!不知道你是用哪一版2.3.3?

I' using Revolution HD 5.1.4 with latest Radio and RIL

WiFi problems with routers
Hi there,
Same problem here. Both my WiFi router and phone say signal and reception quality are perfect and connection it stable, but data won't flow.
I'm having this problem with my Speedtouch (WEP key) router at home, whereas a Sitecom router at the office works fine (WPA etc. key).
Tried some work arounds, without success
Regards
***EDIT***
I can add that it has nothing to do with the reported threshold of -88dB signal strength. As I checked that with the *#*#4636#*#* option and both higher and lower values of the WiFi reception don't make any difference. The problem persists.
***EDIT v2***
The suggestion posted elsewhere to change from WEP to WPA didn't work out either
***EDIT v3***
Reverted back to ARHD 3.7 and WiFi is running fine again .
Hope some fix will be found soon!
Regards,

Is there any solution. I am trying to downgrade the radio but no chance.

If I use LeeDroid or Revolution will this same problem be there?

[Q] problem with wifi after flashing to ARHD

hey guys i have a problem with my wifi after flashing to ARHD 5.2.6...
sometimes i'm able to use the wifi for awhile before stuffs stop moving/loading so i'm unable to use the internet even though it shows that i'm connected... the market keeps loading and downloads doesn't move... my laptop has no problem with the wifi at home...
during some other times it seems to be problem-free... i do not think it's the wifi in my home that has problems because i was able to use the wifi at home w/o problem before flashing to ARHD...
this problem happened to me too when i used the wifi in my school... however, when i moved to another area in school, i was able to use the wifi there... the signal in both areas were great, laptops were able to use wifi in both areas without any hiccups...
please note that i had no problems with any wifi i was connected to before i flashed to ARHD...

[Q] portable wifi hotspot disables 3G ?

had the phone over a year now, never had an issue before.
As soon as you turn on the portable wifi hotspot, i loose the 3g/h symbol from the top of the screen and from that no data conectivity?
and as sopon as you turn the wifi hotspot off, it regains an internet conection
Any ideas, ive not installed any apps recently, as far as i can remember?

Do you get an internet connection when another device connects to your phone's wifi hotspot.
If you are able to connect, then it must be working, as it's the 3G signal that the phone uses to connect the wifi to the internet. It might remove the icon, but if you can connect then it's fine.

nope, can conect my ipad to the DHDs hotspot but no internet.
the same for when i turn the hotspot on, cant brouse anything on the phone as no data conection

still not sorted this, anyone else got a aide or something to sort this?

First post (longtime lurker)
I've got the same problem here although this has only started happening in the last couple of days. The phone's data connection is fine until you enable the wifi hotspot at which point the connection is dropped to the phone, connecting any devices to the phone is fine, they get an IP address and can ping the phone directly, but beyond the phone there's nothing.
Rebooting the phone does not help.
The only app I've installed recently is Google Shopper.
Out of curiosity Fil what ROM are you using? I'm on RCMix3d Runny 3.0 which is based on Android 2.3.5 and Sense 3.5. I'm looking at switching to an ICS build pretty soon.
It also looks like we're on the same network although I think that's just coincidence.

yep sounds exactly the same issue,
as for rom, still on t-mobiles original 2.50.110.5 Adroid 2.3.3
was thinking of flashing something custom to see if it solved the problem

I've just flashed IceColdSandwich today at work (it's been a slow day!) and you'll be pleased to know that wireless tethering is working again. I'm on the train home as I type this. It's possibly something in the 2.3 image? I can't really say since we both had different ROMs (mine was a Sensation port). It could just be a bad bit of code in the gingerbread OS that produces this bug on rare occasions.
It may have something to do with the fact that T-Mobile and Orange allow you to roam on eachother's networks. Do you have roaming enabled?
To be honest I'm just stabbing wildly at possible causes here and a flash fixed it anyway. I went ICS but I don't think you'd have to go that extreme but flashing a new ROM overwrites whatever it is that caused this in the first place.
I'm just hoping it's fixed in ICS and won't happen again!

cheers, enabled data roaming, and it now works!
Since the issue, my batterys turned to crap! guessing thats the cause constantly jumping networks, and also data speeds have been very poor lately, was ok when just t-mobile, but orange is poor!
Off to the t-mobile foeums to see if its just me, or others!

Wifi issue

Hello community,
1. I have a low wifi signal - about 10-12 dbm less then my old lg g3 or lg g5 or galaxy j7 pro - seams it is just an integrated wifi antenna issue and there is no way to fix it
2. When scanning wifi networks I have a very not stable results: even when the signal is excellent about 55-60dbm the ssid is appear and goes all the time occasionally - seams it is a wifi driver bug
Especially I see it when using WIFI analyzer.
Couple of days before I opened thread with Sony support and don't have answer.
I must have the WI-FI card working well !
Someone have the same issues?
Someone have any ideas about fixing the low wifi signal ?
Thanks,
p.s the wifi connection is stable with day by day standard usage.

hi
I CANT EVEN USE WIFI
like u said,i found my signals are very weak at the first.
i think its just a bug and didnt care about it
however 1 week later my phone suddenly cannot connect to any wifi.all the wifi spots are shown as almost no signal and it will repeat"connecting,saved"'
and i found this is a serious problem,used Xperia companion to fix that
But it didnt work and i couldnt turn on the wifi option now.
it will reboot when im trying to turn on the wifi option.
i think its likely to be a hardware issue,but my LTE worked very well without problem.
im very Confusing now
