Hi all, I just wanted to ask if anyone else has experienced slight instability in the WiFi of their Droid. Mine seems to do the following on various different networks (all of which happen to be secured with WPA2/AES):
The second and third issues may not be the Droid's fault, but rather the consumer-grade WiFi networks themselves.
I'm just curious if others have seen similar issues, or if I should have the phone replaced. It is a week 40 unit, but has been otherwise perfect.
- * WiFi driver "crashes" after disabling and then (attempting to) re-enable WiFi. It appears to not shut down properly, as the status message in the Settings menu will remain as "Turning off...". The only solution I have found is to turn the phone off and then on again (it will shutdown properly).
- * WiFi remains "bound" to a previous network after leaving a location and traveling several miles away
- * WiFi stops working, but remains active (still showing good signal). Starting and stopping WiFi cures this issue. Small chance that a contributing factor may be other computers using WiFi.
