Hello everyone!
I bought redmI note 5 pro china version 6/64 model. and I am using MIUI 9.5.4.0 stable (china) version.
My phone has a Wi-Fi issue. It cannot connect to 5GHz Wi-Fi signal well. It can detect 5GHz signal, but the signal is very very weak than 2.4Ghz even if the router and smartphone are on the same table.
If I step away from the router for 3 meters, 5Ghz signal is lost.
(screenshot, Im using a netgeat r7000 router. And I tried with other many routers too.)
The 2.4 GHz signal from the same router works very well. The Wi-Fi issue I have seems to be a little different from Wi-Fi issues that have often occurred in Xiaomi Phones.
I changed 5GHz channel bandwidth many times already.
I wonder,
1. Is this a hardware issue? Are the antennas of 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz separate?
2. How can only 5 GHz signal look like the antenna is unplugged from the motherboard?
3. If this is a hardware issue, what is the problem with the part?
I'm sad because my new phone has this problem. I hope the experts will help me. Sorry for my bad English!

I am a stable version without the question, developer has

Can I ask where you purchased it from? The China version doesn't seem to be in stock anywhere.

My Redmi Note 5 (China version) works well, it gets 433Mbps with very strong signal on 5Ghz brands. Maybe your phone is broken……

Hi,
I got 5Ghz wifi issues with this 9.5.19.0... no reason why.. if you do a factory restore it will pickup 5Ghz but then after reboot no....
This is something seen in several forums...
Also, please bear in mind that the New Note 5 (global/china) is almost the same as Note 5 Pro (india), both with Snapdragon 636... India has a selfie 20MP that is all...
Anyone knows how to fix it?
Thanks.

Try a different wifi channel on the router.
I think the GN supports any of the first four channels.
5GHz is disgracefully and HORRIBLY broken on the GN. Class action suit might be in order…

i just receive message from youtube video creator whish is little different
What I found is that the Nexus has a hard time with the 2.4 Ghz signal. I bought a nnew dual channel router and I set my Nexus to 5 Ghz only band and I get good speeds now. I know this sucks but the only work around I could find.

my router support 5Ghz but it only switch on it if its possible..In my area there is a lot networks thats why i think it is on 20Mhz - 2.4Ghz
attached all what i can set in my router.
Is there anybody who is using 802.11n only with 2.4Ghz with good speeds and with no signal droping? (sometime i can even measure speed in speedtest.net)

I get better range on 2.4 (which is to be expected), but I connect and stay connected to 5ghz as well. I get an easy 15 down 10 up on 5ghz.

[Q] Weak Wifi Signal

Has anyone else noticed really poor wifi signals on this phone? At my work I used to get either full signal or one bar shy of full signal with my nexus 5. Now on the LG G3 I don't pick anything up at all. Just curious if I am the only one. Thanks.
I haven't had any problems with it, btw i have the sprint variant if that matters
This really belongs in Q&A, but anyway it's probably the router. It either needs a power cycle or it's a meh router. I'm getting 390-433Mbps on my G3 coupled with an Asus AC68U even when I'm outside my apartment.
Also, check the Mbps, because bars aren't a very accurate measurement.
Edit - If it's work Wi-Fi, your connection could also be meh due to other users connecting with wireless G along with them pulling data at the same time.

I believe this is fitting in the Q&A section
Its possibly a router issue and everyone diving on that sweet wireless
Thread moved from General -> Q&A, all questions belong in the Q&A section, please read the mod warnings and follow the rules.
Thanks everyone. I do get the same signal at home that I did with the nexus so it must be the router like you are saying. Sorry for posting in the wrong section, I am new to posting on the forum. If a moderator could move it over I would appreciate it.
Bars mean nothing between phones. The full bar signal strength for one manufacturer may be 1 bar for another.

Agreed, and I could care less about the number of bars. I just wish it would pick up the wifi at all.

Ah, I misread your first post. Have you checked the actual wifi signal strength at home with your old phone for comparison? Also, do you know what kind of signal the work router uses and what your home is? (dual band, N, G, or AC, etc)

Yes, at home it works flawlessly and is no different than my nexus 5 so I am thinking that it is the router at work like everyone has said.
wifi signal
Mine is weak too in job comes in and out on my old s5 was constant also mbps is slower on lg g3 compared to s5 right now connected to 5ghz ac I'm at 292mbps and my wifes s5 is at 866 mbps its not router cause like I said in job on s5 was a constant connection and on lg g3 comes in and out.The range is not as far and in job there are 5 ssid I can connect too if others dont work.
I have pretty slow wifi on my g3 to.
My WiFi is great and consistent on my F460S. Maybe there is something on your phone interfering with it? Have you tried to do a reset (soft or hard)? My wife's S5 is a little slower than my G3 at times but its usually around the same speeds. I also tested my D850 G3 and its the same as this one. What model G3 are you using?
Here is a SS of mine (its not the fastest but its at least consistent. )

Problem in wifi speed connection on the Galaxy a50

Hi, I have a problem with the connection speed of the wifi. I try to explain, when I turn on the wifi the speed is at maximum, like the other devices, but after 15 or 20 minutes the maximum speed decreases and remains blocked between 40 and 50 Mb/s. If I reboot or shut down and turn on again the wifi returns to full speed like the other devices. I tried to connect to several different connections, I reset the network settings, I reset to factory data with and without backup features, but I always have the same problem. I think that the problem is software otherwise the speed would not become normal every time I turn off and turn on the wireless connection. Can anyone else test to see if it's a common problem? samsung support says that from its analysis the wireless module works and I should leave it in their hands for a few days so that they can test by repeating my attempts. Excuse my English.

I am having the same problem with my a50 sm-a505f

Mine is sm-a505FN, but do you have the same values as my screenshot? the block is on 40/50 Mb/s?
My Galaxy A50 SM-A505FN does not have this problem, at a frequency of 5GHz I reach speeds well above 200Mb.
Czech Republic.
Speed differences
I have the SM-A505U A50 from Xfinity. I find on my wifi speed while on the 2.4 I get About 40 Mbps and on the 5G I get 240mbps.
Now on my LG G6 which is over 2 years old I get 90 Mbps on the 2.4 and over 350 on the 5G network. Doesn't seem right to me, does anyone else see this kind of degradation on other phones compared to our A50 ?
My A505G can't even reach 10 Mbps on 5 GHz but on 2.4 GHz I can get full speeds out of my 50/50 fiber. My router is running DD-WRT so I can see actual clients link speed and the A50 is getting really low link speeds to the router. I have other 5 GHz 802.11ac and 802.11n devices getting 50 Mbps and link speeds according to their capacity (my router is broadcasting at 40 MHz so a 1x1 802.11ac client like the A50 should have around 200 Mbps tx/rx rate).
maybe I solved it
For my problem, the different speed in different time would be like a sleep wifi function, sometimes the speed connection come back to the top.
I searched this on the web: "Another important thing is the Wifi sleep policy. Sometimes, you notice that the internet stops in between your activity as the Wifi don’t work. This isn’t networking or any other issue. The problem is caused by Wifi sleep policy which is just like screen saver timing."
PS the official technical assistance didn't find problem on my wireless connection

I know but in my case the TX/RX rates never go higher than 86 mbps which is too low for a 802.11ac client. My other devices also go on PS state but when I run a speedtest it changes from VHT80PS to VHT80 and of course the TX/RX rate goes up to 400 mbps and the speed tests show my real Internet speeds.
No Data connection working in Samsung Galaxy A10 and A50
My brother and cousin have Samsung Galaxy A10 and A 50 respectively. In none of them cellular data works. Can anybody help me with this?
Try another brand of router or upload the latest firmware in the existing one. These problems normally happen, although due to standards, this should not happen.
Sorry, something went wrong with uploading pictures, so I'll try again.
My friend has worse problem with her Galaxy A50.
Intenet speed via Wi-Fi runs around 1Mb to 5 maximum while my Galaxy a50 has about 50 connected to the same access point.
Her husband with his Galaxy a70 has about 50Mb as well.
I tried changing wi-fi settings, full wipe, router restart, everything. Soft (brand) up to date. Nothing helps.
Finally I turned on wi-fi router on my cell and what a surprise- her connection is working fine with it- about 70Mb. On Galaxy A70 same speed. Does anyone know, what's going on??

DOUBLE the WiFi speed on your moto g8 power! Full 40 MHz! 150 Mbps! UNLOCK!

Tired of only having 72 Mbps link speed on your 2.4 GHz only moto g8 power‽ You can simply unlock it with these easy steps!
Step 0: bootloader unlock/root/get magisk on there
Step 1: install Magisk module "WiFi Bonding (Qcom)"
Step 2: reboot
Step results!:

This may also work to get the g power from 433 to 867 Mbps, but this has not been tested by myself so far.
Got root, magisc could not make it work on moto g8 power
Isn't this setting up to the router your connecting to? I think it will be used if the router is setup for 40mhz on 2.4ghz, but you should move to 5ghz frequencies anyway.

Yeah, most routers will probably be in 20 MHz mode by default, especially in a busy area. But if you have it on 40 MHz mode then it's still not gonna use the 40 MHz because Motorola disabled it for some reason which is why this module exists and works.
And the only thing wrong with the g8 power is the lack of ****ing 5ghz wifi. It's insane, and why this is a ****ing godsend. 72 Mbps link speed and that's it? This was the only phone that wanted me to stick it back in the box and send it because it took FOREVER to download updates. It's pretty easy for me at least to tell when I finally get some damn speed in this thing lol
And earlier this month I went back to my blackberry 9900 from 2009, and it felt like the future.(because I lost the stupid sim tray like an idiot and had to order one which is working fine now that I snipped the eject tool hole on it) 5 ghz wifi on that thing, not to mention NFC! And the wifi hotspot on that thing holy ****, it's super efficient and works extremely well even though the network's only h+. In my experience with android phones turning on the hotspot has always been like you started its furnace
I'm very surprised that the G8 radio does not include 5ghz, I almost did not believe it and had to look up the tech specs as the previous G7 Power had it and my Moto G Power which is basicaly the NA version of the G8 all support 5Ghz WiFi.
For the people who actually are stuck with 2.4ghz only routers, there is the possibility applying the 40mhz configuration could cause some signal loss depending how far or behind how many walls the signal must travel through, so there is pros/cons to this modification.
Seeing as my fibre Broadband connection is 48Mbps max (limited by distance to exchange), I'm not going to have a problem with wifi perf.
Stock Moto G Power (2020) version
I don't know what version of the phone you got, but if it doesn't have 5GHz on it, you got screwed. I'm looking at mine right now and it's connected via 5GHz to my office wifi. Model XT2041-4

Question WiFi and Bluetooth interference

I recently bough a Redmi Note 12 4G from a carrier here in Colombia. The phone works pretty well but in this two last days has come to my attention a possible bug with the 2.4Ghz band. I use a pair of Vivo wireless earpods. but whenever i have the bluetooth activated, the WiFi signal seems to be obstructed or completely deactivated. When enter the WiFi list there is no a single network to choose, and what I have to do? deactivate Bluetooth and activate airplane mode, then deactivate the airplane mode and reactivate the wifi. Then the networks appears and i can connect to Wifi.
Im running MIUI 14.0.7 Global
I have the 4GB ram model with 3GB extra using the internal storage. I checked for 2.4ghz band interference but it happens anywhere i go, on my office or my house. Also try rebooting the phone multiple times but this problem is present. It not happens always btw, in this momento the phone is working well with both activated, but in the day it happens may be 4 o 5 times.
I have not touched the firmware of the phone, neither installed a rom or flash anything, its brand new and from factory.
I'm thinking of returning it if this problem continues.
Maybe you guys have an idea of what can cause this.
I guess it's the problem of the Bluetooth™ Standard because they share similar frequencies.
The closest thing you can probably do is to get an 5GHz router, turn off Wi-Fi all together or change your AP's channel to a less-crowded one
(TP-Link advises channel 1, 6 or 11 in case of interference, it might work ..temporarily)
I've had multiple Xiaomi phones and they all had this problem, let me know if you found better solution!
Something similar happens to me, when I try to use bluetooth with a keyboard and a mouse, both types of wifi (2.4Ghz and 5Ghz) download speeds drop a lot and it becomes unusable in my case since I need a good signal to be able to use a streaming service in the cloud.
Also thinking about apply the warranty (I bought it from a local seller with a 1-month warranty) and looking for another better device and clearly not Redmi or Xiaomi.
I will leave two images demonstrating what I have mentioned:
