Wifi antenna improvement
 
I've noticed my wifi is weak compared with n900 . Sometimes in places where the n900 can detect 5 wifi stations , tje n9 sees only one or two . I was thinking at some antenna improvement or software boost . I would make even a hardware improvementand with ftlmtx same if it would be possible.

The reception was improved SLIGHTLY in P.R 1.2 so that it won't disconnect that much to Wi-Fi's that are even in close range. So a tweak may be needed.

But in reality, the N9's antenna for Wi-Fi is one of the worst I have ever seen on a phone. The iPhone 4S could detect 7+ N8 is 5 but the N9 only shows 1-2.

Hi guys i have to agree with all of you...

But i was thinking...I,m using the rubber casing that came with the phone.
Maybe if i remove the case and free the simlot and stuff...you know give.it some fresh air hahaha...

I mean everybody is using the rubber case...and maybe the case.is covering the antenne..i mean who knows...

I will try it out for a couple of days see what happens..Maybe you guys could to..And give some feedback on how it went.

first use the search button in top right because it was discussed more than one time and it's because it's always in power saving mode for wifi

You realize it uses zero power to scan wifi networks, power saving mode on the wifi is reducing the transmit power. Nothing to do with this.
