nexus 4 wifi issue

[akash119]

Wifi connection slows down or disconnets when the device(nexus 4) goes to sleep. I'm not able to download large files due to this. Anyone else facing the same problem? please help.

Mine slowed down as well. I downloaded a free program called WiFi fixer and it fixed the problem, even doubled the download speed.

Right. Known problem for Nexus devices under Android Jelly Bean across some wireless routers. Amazing that Google won't supply the fix! Use WiFi Fixer as suggested.

I downloaded the app but i'm still having the issue connecting to wifi when the display is turned off .

Make sure the wifi setting is set to always on while in sleep. There is a problem where the nexus wont hold a connection to certain routers when the device is put to sleep. However, generally when downloading files they should still download even when the phone is asleep. You might want to try another router or set a static arp. If you have rooted then you could change some system files

Thanks. I'll try changing the router.
