So heres a real annoying problem, so much to the point im starting to become depressed :/
Nothing major change that i know of, my phone worked great until like a week ago. The problem is with the wifi.
It connects and all, bit it acts as if its just slow connection, but its not because on my computer / laptop its fine. for example, youtube wont load a video, i cant download a single thing from the play store, even facebook is acting wierd. But as i said its connected to the wifi.
Now for the last weekend i went up to my brothers, and the wifi on my phone worked flawless. This is what confuses me. :/
Original s3, no root or nothing, jellybean ofc.
Any ideas anyone? :/

If you're sharing internet from your laptop/pc..TRY WITH CONNECTIFY HOTSPOT...

I got a router, and all devices connect to that, what i mean was the problem i dont think it can be with the internet itself because this issue dont occur on any other devices. if that makes sense.. :S
Your S3 has definitely got a unique IP address? You haven't set it static have you?

Yep, Its set to DHCP. So i guess, because the other option is static.
Yep. Good to rule out.

Any way to encrypt signal (even really simply)?
I know when I go to this convention next week all the bored people are going to steal my bandwidth (VZW dialup is not fast enough for anyone but me).
I am pretty sure there was a way to configure WEP, tho I have only gotten WMWifiRouter to work one time. And it was because there were no other AP's in the area. For some reason if I am in an area where there is an AP but it's secured, my phone keeps prompting me to connect to it, and if I dismiss the message, it never properly initializes where any other device can connect to it.
No errors show up on the screen, it just doesn't show up as an available wireless AdHoc network. I've tried running the latest trial version, and the version that is in DCD's kitchen, same problem on both.
Maybe I'm just not smart enough to figure it out, or maybe my brother's PDA and my Ipod just aren't compatible with it. I got it to work 1 time, and it was with my laptop.

Did you try Blade Wifi Fix?
My problem was slightly different. I was able to connect after 4 or 5 attempts. However, it would disconnect every 10 or 15 minutes. Also, there were times it simply couldn't find my wireless network...
After things got better...
Oh I'm rooted...
ok i have just rooted with Z4 root i will install that and let u know
thanks

Blade wifi fix doesnt work on UK Xperia x10! shame
I notice every time I connect my SGS2 to my wifi, after awhile, it slows down my internet of other devices to the point where loading webpage take 5 seconds or more. So if I connect my phone to the wifi, in about 20ish minutes my computer's internet speed will start to lag. The webpage load slower, and my online games have 2-4s of delay.
I have a qwest router (Actiontec PK 5000)
Whatever the problem is I really doubt it's phone related. How old is the router?
One time at football camp, I put my shoulder pads in my arse.
Another vote for router issues.
Or if you have modem and separate router, possible the modem is bad. If you can rule out the router I would call your ISP for a new modem. I doubt the phone could clog enough bandwidth to explain your issue.
Edit:
I didn't see you show your router. I have the same exact router/modem. Did you get the firmware update? I think you have to do it manually. I used to have lots of issues where the router would throttle my connection, saying to check for viruses, too many connections. And I would have to unplug and reboot daily. (On the old firmware you can verify this under the modem utilization screen)
My current firmware version is: qap002-3.60.3.0.9.9-pk5000
After I updated the firmware I never have issues. If I choose to, I can browse on my phone, watch Netflix (directly on Vizio TV), my wife browse on the TouchPad, all on a 1.5Mbps connection without issue.

Hello there, I'm on the same firmware as you, i changed my raido channel from "auto" to "8" (I think it could be any number) It seems to fix it, but I dont know yet, its only been a few hours.
Same problem !!

I have SGS2 and new tp link wi fi router TL-WR740N.
When i measure the internet speed on speedtest i have 6MB/S download and 17 ms ping.
But when i connect wi fi my telephone SGS2 on the second test i have 5042 ping and 0.42 MB/s download.
When i measure it for the third time, on the moment when there is ongoing pin calc. when i disconnect my phone from wifi , that instant moment my ping and downloads speed is ok.
What is gong on ?
ANYONE PLS HELP !!
That sounds like your router man...
Does this happen when you connect any other device to your wifi?

if i remember correctly, the more devices that you have connected to wifi at one time, the slower your connection is. All the devices are using data/bandwidth at the same time which means the individual task of each device has to wait for others as well. at least, thats what i've always gone by.
EDIT: i just have no idea why the change in speeds would be so drastic :/
This thread is from January. Put the shovels away. Also, it's not relative to this phone. It's relative to what kind of internet setup you have at your residence.

Not jet. I have updated the latest firmware and the same thing happens. I will try it on different routers the same testspeed and i will see it. My friend also have the same router like me and have same problem .
We will figure it eventually and i will write it down to you. If you solve it please share.
Thx !
Has anyone ever played online games using their phone's USB tether? Either on a console or on a PC.
I just thought about this and got curious. My PS3's in the repair shop so I can't try it out my self. Has anyone ever tried? And is it possible? :O

Droidpad! Check it out on play store! Don't remember on USB but it definitely works on WiFi. Excellent thing. (Getting used to controls takes time )
Edit: You might want to see nJoy as well. Only Wifi though this one.Paid I think (Haven't tried)
If you mean connecting to something like PSN or Xbox live. I played COD4 on PS3 using a wifi hotspot and it played ok, a bit of lag but playable. Never tried with USB but wifi hotspot is easier

Yeah, that's what I meant. I think you should have less lag if you go USB though. Faster and more secure connection. That's what I think.
But good, glad to know it works

I know what you mean. Instead of DroidPad I use Gmote though. Been using it for a while and I really like it.
But what does the other app have to do with this? Lol
Back then when we didn't have router, my brother and I played RF Online with mobile network, tethered via USB in his Sony Ericsson Dumbphone
So yeah it works, but when the signal goes down, sometimes it freeze for a while

So i bought this cell..i already was kind of disappointed..now i really hate it..
It gives me problem with the router..like reset it...or make the wifi get stucked...
It's ok as long as anything connect to the wifi uses internet...but whenever i need to use the lan,,,after a while the router shuts everything out...
There is any solutions...other than change router (i tried every possible configuration, even with no protection at all, fixed ips, only g..)
I don't know what else to try...
I never thought a cell could ever mess up with the router...

Well, an android phone can't mess up a router so the problem is the router itself. So changing the router is the only solution

I don't think any phone can mess up the router. It has to be the problem with your router.

He can't, stop blaiming the phone. Maybe your router needs an update or you need a better one.

Try updating your router firmware. If that doesn't help, try a different firmware like tomato or open-wrt.
And please report back.
