WIFI Not Working

[pushkar singh]

Hi,

The WIFI on my Note 8.0 is not working properly. I have a 4 MBPS line at home and it works perfectly with my other devices (Laptop, Phone) but somehow it just doesn't works properly with my Note 8.0. No matter what I stream (HQ videos, normal videos or audios), there is always a buffering lag which is very frequent (after every 5 seconds, it buffers for 2-3 seconds). I have tried everything, re-installed my WIFI network but the problem remains. Is this an OS issue ? Has anyone else faced this kind of issue ? (I have kept my WIFI on during sleep in advanced settings, so that is not an issue).

Any suggestions ?

Regards,

Pushkar

If you're WiFi network is setup to be in ad-hoc mode and not infrastructure mode, it won't work. Android has never supported ad hoc mode, and it has been a known bug since android 1.5.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like Google wants to fix the issue anytime soon.

Make sure your network is setup in infrastructure mode and not ad hoc.

Also who is your provider and what equipment are you using? I know there was another thread where xfinity customers using the wifi router xfinity provides were having connection issues as well with the note 8
