Got replacement rezound and now internet is slow while on wifi.

danmil05 · February 26th, 2012, 06:25 PM

I got a replacement rezound because to the reboot issue. As soon as i replaced my rezound, while on my home wifi network it got really slow in the browser, loading the marketplace, updating the weather, etc. It's fine while on 4g and surfing online while on wifi was fine on the old rezound right before replacing it to the new one.

Does anyone know how to fix this issue? I don't want to have to replace it again.

Did you reboot the router.

No, but everything that's on my network is fine. My droid incredible works fine, my old rezound works fine, and my computer runs fine online. That's why i tnink it's the phone.

It is a new device on a network if you find it slow on a network the first and easiest thing to do is reboot the router,also you could run the speedtest.net app or try a different browser.if after trying all these options take it back for a replacement,my wifi is super fast with my rezound so it is not a known issue on every device.

Ok, so i tried rebooting the router. Now, it's only slow half the time. I have Verizon fios and when i run speed test half the time i get around 17 kilobytes (?) the other half i gave around 3. Also, the weather won update from when i last turned 4g off.

Is Bluetooth turned on by any chance?
Oh, your "also" is a big clue. Restart the phone.

I have the SAME problem. My Rezound SUCKS on all WiFi even when you are within 3' of the router. If I had known it was going to be like this, I would have gone with another device. My Droid Incredible worked flawlessly, and all of my other WiFi devices work flawlessly as well.

Well everything seems fine after restarting the phone (i also never have Bluetooth on). Other than the broswer cashing once it seems to be ok but i want to test it on my campus wifi connection since that and my home wifi is the only wifi connection i use. But right now i can use it because i have to register the phone which is a process so i wont be able to test my school wifi in a few days.

Having the same issues on a brand new phone. upgraded from the HTC incredible and it was running fine. but the rezound is getting 300kbs MAX which is extremelyyy slow
