mkay. so i got my dx2 on thursday, and its been one thing after another with this thing maybe i got a junk set and need to swap it out
maybe its my router?
maybe its 2.2.2 ?
but heres the problems im having
with wifi on talking to any router ( not just my own ) i have issues using the browser ( sometimes it works.. sometimes it doesnt. ) i cant download anything from the market or even browse the market.

now i downloaded the " speedtest " app from ookla.net over 3g i get approx 145kps down and anywhere between 80 and 125 kps up with a ping of 127
now. if i connect my to my wifi ( tp link routerWR1043N ) and run the app again. i get..a ping of 47 ms and a download speed of 1200kps and up load of 700kps or greater ( so i know its connected to my router ) but i cant for the life of me browse the web over wifi or if i can get to its only for a few pages than it drops off and stops working


any one have any ideas?
any one know if gingerbread is suppose to fix this?
should i get a different phone or is this androids problem not motorolas?
 
I've been having issues connecting with a WPA2 wifi by using a cert. Android doesn't seem to like to remember that it's okay for it to use the cert. It also likes to only show one bar while I'm sitting underneath a wireless access point. Nor does it like to give the speeds I should be getting for wireless n.

Only a couple of times have I had your issues of not being able to access the market or browser. Simple disconnect reconnect fixed that for me.

I've had my DX2 since mid june and I haven't noticed any WIFI issues until 3 weeks ago or so. It is also the same time I bought a new router. I bought the cheapest one they had at best buy to test to make sure my current router was defective. It was and I never returned the crappy one.

I'm wondering if it's my router and not my phone;however, it wouldn't surprise me that this brick doesn't work like other android devices.
