strange new wifi behavior application problem, firmware problem or hardware problem?

[davioh]

When from sleep and waking up with the pin,
Wifi is greyed out and won't turn back on. When I go to check it out on settings it says "turning wifi off". So clearly to me it is having problems shutting the wifi off while in sleep. I have to restart to get the problem fixed? I am running auto airplane by DON. Any ideas as to what the cause of this problem? It's frustrating.

Have you done a cold boot/hard reset lately?

yes I just did one a few days ago - in an attempt to cut back on application not respondings/ infrequent crashes. It appears to have cut down on those but didn't fix the wifi problem.

Is it happening with all wifi connections?

If it's your home, try rebooting the router.

Mike's suggestion is good. Helps a lot. Check this link to help with your issues. Sometimes you need to forget the connection then reconnect. I've had to do that on occasion.

They way mine works with DBW... When I wake it from sleep mode there is no wifi icon then I get the grey then blue. If that is what you are getting it's normal

I only have one router so can't easily determine if this problem happens only with my router. I was wondering how the connection could even effect the unit in this way? Also, something else disturbing for a few minutes just now it only showed one wifi signal bar and this is a high priced linksys/ cisco router no apparent interferences (phones, microwaves going) AND im line of site around 6 feet away from the router!!! How can the signal be THIS BAD?

Try changing the router's channel to 4,5 or 6 and see if the signal is better

What channel are you using? Sometimes a channel between 1 and 6 works best. Download wifi analyzer to find the best channel.
