Jolla and WIFI issues - Page 2 - maemo.org

I have issues with dropping conection too.
Worst part is that i can't re-initiate the connection in a simple way.

Maybe I have slightly less problems with my rock solid Linksys with Tomato, than my parents' shitty Thomson that the ISP gave them.
This and the fact that it seems to be worse in my pocket versus holding the phone leads me to believe that is a reception issue for certain angles/orientatios. (Thomson signal is ridiculously weak when you go more than one room away)

Haven't noticed problems yet. Both at work and at home Apple wifi, both "WPA Personal". Changing from mobile to wifi is seemless.

I must say I once found the Jolla lock screen with a strange little star instead of the wifi or mobile connection symbol. Saw it only once.

The Transfers list is often crowded with failed e-mail transfers. I can see there are failures during telephone calls. But not all of them can be explained though.

My Jolla isn't dropping connections, but somehow there is only one (1) bar signal strength at my desk -- and the router is like 1m away. None of my other devices have that problem, so I don't think it's a router issue.

I had also observed this. Weak signal while 30 cm from router.

I have the same issues with wifi and it's getting worse. So worse in fact, that I completely turned off wifi now, as it was constantly reconnecting.

Same Problem here with an Netgear WNR3500Lv1 with Tomato.

Sometimes when I came home out of 3G I get an reconnect loop on WLAN. It connects and immediately lost connection, reconnect and so on.

besides, the same problem I have sometimes when changing from WLAN to 3G.

After an reboot everything work fine.

I fixed my this issue by setting my WLAN to b+g, instead of b+g+n. The N band gives the issues.

Great suggestion will try it with just B&G to see if it is more stable. I suspect the N service is auto changing bandwidth in repose to channel occupancy by nearby Access Point and this may be causing problems for the Jolla client

Finally found the right settings for my TL-WR1043ND (DD-WRT).

Wireless Network Mode: N-Only
Channel Width: Turbo (40 MHz)
Wireless Channel: 13 - 2472 MHz (but any other channel should do, too)
Control Channel: lower
TX Power: 50 dBm
Short Preamble: disable
Sensitivity Range (ACK Timing): 0

So far, no more dropouts. I think the key is to use a specific network mode and a specific channel width and avoiding mixed (or dynamic) modes.

Regards,

J4ZZ

This is now an issue for me at work. All other devices work but Jolla has intermittent problems with connection. The star symbol sometime appears but the connection still works. At other times it stops and starts with a "connection problem" message appearing every couple of minutes till it gives up and switches to 3G. This was not a problem before the first OS update. Seems to have coincided with the pre Christmas fix release.
